Hospital Director Wei hurried over, and upon meeting Gu Dai’s cold gaze, he was momentarily stunned.
Seeing Director Wei, Doctor Zhang Li pointed at Gu Dai and announced, “Director, this girl claims she’s the Legendary Doctor!”
Time ticked away silently, with the Director remaining speechless.
Doctor Zhang’s face showed a hint of embarrassment, which he quickly masked, turning to Gu Dai, “Even the Director is speechless at your audacity to impersonate the Legendary Doctor. You…”
Director Wei sharply interrupted, slapping away Doctor Zhang’s hand pointed at Gu Dai, rebuking, “Lower your hand pointing at the Legendary Doctor!”
Doctor Zhang was dumbfounded, asking incredulously, “Director, are you saying she is the Legendary Doctor?”
Before the Director could respond, Doctor Zhang continued skeptically, “Impossible, how could someone so young, so inexperienced, be the highly skilled Legendary Doctor?”
Director Wei affirmed with certainty, “I’m not mistaken, she is indeed the Legendary Doctor.”
Years ago, the hospital faced a challenging case. When all hope seemed lost, the Legendary Doctor appeared and successfully performed the surgery.
Director Wei and his mentor were assistants in the operating room at the time.
Even though the Legendary Doctor wore a mask, concealing her face, Director Wei remembered her cold gaze.
Even after several years, that gaze was unmistakable to him.
Doctor Zhang tried to protest, “But…”
Gu Dai, tired of arguing, turned to the Director, “I want to perform surgery on this girl. Could you arrange it?”
Director Wei nodded repeatedly, “Of course!”
Doctor Zhang interjected anxiously, “What if something goes wrong during the surgery? The child’s direct relatives will certainly…”
Director Wei cut him off, “Whatever happens, I’ll take full responsibility.”
Gu Dai reassured, “Don’t worry, I am confident. Nothing will go wrong.”
Doctor Zhang scoffed, already imagining a scenario of Gu Dai failing, and the patient’s relatives causing a commotion.
Meanwhile, at the Song Corporation, Song Ling emitted a cold aura, his face dark as he perused documents.
Zhao Xuan stood trembling before him.
Since delivering the birthday gift to Miss Gu Dai, Song Ling had been seething with anger, his body radiating a relentless chill as if it cost him nothing to do so.
The entire Song Corporation was engulfed in this icy atmosphere.
Zhao Xuan reported, “President Song, that’s the recent situation of the company.”
Song Ling replied coldly, “Mhmm.”
Zhao Xuan stood rigidly, not daring to move.
Song Ling lifted his gaze, his eyes coldly fixing on Zhao Xuan, “Why are you still standing here after reporting? Shouldn’t you be working?”
Normally, after Zhao Xuan reported, Song Ling would offer a comment or two, so he was waiting for Song Ling to speak.
Zhao Xuan, observing Song Ling’s grim expression, found the words he had prepared dying on his lips. Instead, he could only say, “I’ll go out right now.”
Song Ling ordered, “Wait, I have a task for you.”
Zhao Xuan’s heart sank again.
Song Ling instructed, “Find out what Gu Dai has been doing recently and report back to me.”
Zhao Xuan, his mouth twitching, agreed after a few seconds.
In the operating room, Gu Dai, dressed in surgical attire, was calm and focused, her eyes fixed on Gu Yin’s head, confidently making the initial incision with the scalpel.
In just a few minutes, she efficiently switched between various surgical tools, proceeding methodically.
Doctor Zhang, watching the precise incision, was shocked.
Zhang Li stared at the incision made for the craniotomy, his eyes widening in shock at its precise placement.
But to him, the incision was just the beginning. The real challenge lay in the treatment that followed, and he was skeptical about Gu Dai’s ability to handle it smoothly.
Unable to resist, Zhang Li’s lips curled into a sneer.
Director Wei Liang, hearing the sound, only then noticed Zhang Li’s presence. He glanced at him with a cold, dismissive look and said, “If there’s nothing important, leave.”
Zhang Li was reluctant to go, but under Wei Liang’s intimidating gaze, he had no choice but to leave, his face darkening like coal.
He couldn’t believe that the hospital director had staked his reputation on an amateur like Gu Dai, whom he considered a mere child.
Standing at the entrance of the operating room with his arms crossed, Zhang
Li waited for the news of the surgery’s failure.
Gradually, the red light above the operating room turned green.
Zhang Li’s hands slowly fell to his sides. He rubbed his eyes, disbelieving what he saw. After confirming he wasn’t mistaken, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Zhang Li thought to himself, “How is this possible? Such a difficult operation was successful? Could she really be the Legendary Doctor?”
