Chapter 12: The Surgery by the swapped identities
"Um Yes I was saying that its gonna be alright," Wang Yu Yan said while patting Wen Mei's head.
"Don't mess my hair," said Wen Mei pouted while she fixed her ruffled hair.
Wang Yu Yan chuckled while seeing the grown-up child in front of her.
"Let's go," said Wen Mei. As soon as Wen Mei took a step forward she felt her hand being pulled.
On turning around Wen Mei saw Wang Yu Yan saying, "Remember I am you and you are me."
"Yes, Yes l understand Miss Wen," said Wen Mei while gesturing her both hands towards the direction of the Operation Theatre.
"As expected from Nurse Wang," said Wang Yu Yan as she walked away leaving behind Wen Mei. Wen Mei rolled her eyes at the disappearing figure and walked in the direction of Operation Theatre.
When they reached the hallway of the O.T.s they saw all the team members were already there. Wang Yu Yan came in the hallway with Wen Mei following her.
They both had masks on their faces which covered their lower half of the face. Wang Yu Yan and Wen Mei had the same colored eyes.
Only difference that Wang Yu Yan's gaze was cold while Wen Mei's was normal. So they both looked like when they had masks covering their lower half face.
Also they were of similar height. Wen Mei was taller than Wang Yu Yan but it was not visible so much.
The team of surgeons saw two figures approaching one following the other.
They were confused regarding their identities.
One of them finally opened her mouth, "Who is our lead surgeon?"
With the question being asked someone said, "She must be one walking in front."
Wang Yu Yan said to one of the nurses, "What's the patient's situation?"
With this question being asked all of them were convinced about the identities.
The nurse approached Wang Yu Yan with the reports in her hand and said, "Doctor Wen he is ready for surgery."
Meanwhile Wen Mei at the back wanted to give a standing ovation to Wang Yu Yan for asking this question.
She was confused about why Wang Yu Yan asked this unimportant question as she could herself examine him again inside the O.T.
But when the nurse approached her calling her 'Doctor Wen' she realized that she intended to clear the confusion about their identities.
With the arrival of all the team members, they all approached the O.T. where Long Feng was lying unconscious due to the effect of anesthesia attached to all the necessary equipment.
"Let's start," said Wang Yu Yan.
With this, the surgery started.
"Scalpel," said Wang Yu Yan.
After it was handed over she cut the chest of the body and made a small incision into the left bottom of the heart through scarred tissue.
The heart was opened with the help of the assistant surgeons. She examined the ventricular part of the heart.
The assistant surgeons placed the retraction sutures so that the heart muscles would not collapse. Then Wang Yu Yan examined the interior part of the heart after some calculations in her mind.
She gestured one of the assistants to bring the sizing device for the restoration for the normal size of the heart.
After it was set up she positioned it as per her calculation and examined the new apex of the heart satisfied she attached it to the inner part of the heart with a Fontan Stitch.
Wang Yu Yan then examined the reduction of the ventricle. She gestured the assistant surgeon after which he measured the ventricular patch.
"Reconstruction of the Anterior wall," said Wang Yu Yan.
The assistant surgeons were in a daze seeing the procedure when Wang Yu Yan said this.
"Reconstruction of the Anterior wall," Wang Yu Yan repeated loudly.
The dazed assistants then apologized and continued the reconstruction process.
Soon after which Wang Yu Yan said, "Closure of the Ventriculartomy."
She skilfully closed the heart after which the stopped her was seen beating again. All members including Wen Mei looked at awe towards the pumping heart.
"Rest I will leave it to you surgeon Xiao," said Wang Yu Yan after which she backed away from the patient and stood at a corner of the operation theatre examining the remaining procedure being done.
The only thing left was now to close the opened chest which was a piece of cake for the surgeons.
Though it was an easy thing to do the assistant surgeons felt that they were medical students who were giving their practical test for the first time.
Even When Mei was feeling danger by the aura emitted by Wang Yu Yan. She wanted to stop Wang Yu Yan for emitting such an aura cause she wasn't like this.
Wen Mei was worried that if this situation goes on people would know the truth. Finally somehow an hour later the assistant surgeons put the last stitch on the patient.
"Move the patient to the I.C.U. and continue monitoring him. If there is any problem notify me first," said Wang Yu Yan while she moves towards the door.
"Nurse Wang follow me," she added before exiting.
"Nurse Wang," said a nurse who was standing near Wen Mei patted her shoulder.
"Y-Yes Yes I am coming," said Wen Mei. She realized what was happening after which she followed Wang Yu Yan.
