Chapter 167: 【167】Success is not easy

“Did you see the air bubble in the syringe?!” Doctor Kim shouted.

Zhao Zhaowei’s eyes widened as he watched Xie Wanying holding the needle entering the patient’s skin; as the needle went deeper, he felt as though he couldn’t breathe, fearing blood might suddenly appear.

After a moment, there was no blood, but an air bubble.

Air bubbles emerged from the saline solution in the syringe.

“Yes, there’s a bubble, teacher!” Zhao Zhaowei yelled out.

“Good, good, good, it’s good that there’s a bubble.” Doctor Yang wiped his forehead with the back of his hand and found, to his surprise, that he was drenched in sweat.

“Don’t let her push the needle in any further,” Doctor Kim instructed.

“No, she’s not pushing it deeper, it’s, it’s, she’s pulling the needle out—” Zhao Zhaowei looked down and found that he couldn’t quite comprehend Xie Wanying’s actions.

The intention was to withdraw the steel needle, leaving behind the catheter around the puncture needle. Doctor Yang and the others were thinking that Fu Xinheng had only mentioned it, and this child actually went ahead and did it.

Fu Xinheng remained silent, his deep, dark eyes squinting, listening intently to the voice on the other end of the phone.

Doctor Yang, Doctor Lin, and Doctor Kim leaned in closer, straining their ears to the phone, where they could hear the patient’s breathing: there it was, breathing that had almost ceased was heard again, the patient was breathing.

My goodness, Doctor Kim fanned herself frantically with her hand; she had almost suffocated as well, but now she could breathe again.

“Tape, tape, get the tape, help her secure it quickly!” Doctor Yang couldn’t wait, shouting into the phone.

“Don’t just stand there, Zhao!” Doctor Kim shouted at her student.

Zhao Zhaowei had the traffic cop hold the phone while he went to get the tape.

The two traffic officers were sweating in their palms from nervousness as well.

The tape secured the catheter and the one-way valve firmly in place. Zhao Zhaowei exhaled a big breath of relief, turned his head, and noticed the patient looking at him with eyes open; he felt his face redden.

The pallor-faced young patient regarded the two young doctors before him with a semblance of a smile, as if to say, “I’m saved, doctor.”

Xie Wanying, having removed her mask and gloves, didn’t dare delay for even a second as she increased the oxygen level for the patient and picked up the stethoscope to listen to the patient’s breathing.

From the other end of the phone, that cold teacher’s voice came again, “Tell me, confirm the depth you inserted the puncture needle just now.”

“The patient is very thin, I inserted it roughly four centimeters deep.”

“Okay. Send him back to the hospital immediately, pay attention to the patient’s position, don’t let the tube move. Keep the line open.”

The order was given by the doctor from Guoxie University; the cop driving immediately returned to the driver’s seat. Since the patient could only lie down horizontally, Xie Wanying had to stay with the patient in the back seat alone. Zhao Zhaowei, carrying the emergency medical kit, got into the passenger seat. The other officer boarded another supportive police car.

The wailing of the siren was necessary, and the police car had to drive faster and steadier this time.

Hearing the sound of the car setting off again, the teachers in the doctors’ office felt like they could finally relax a little.

Fu Xinheng sat by the phone, not moving, because he had said himself he’d keep the line open; he turned to Doctor Yang and said, “You go up to the thoracic surgery area and prepare a bed, the patient has Tetralogy of Fallot.”

Doctor Yang nodded and went upstairs to arrange a bed in the thoracic surgery. Given the severity of this patient’s condition, it was possible they’d need to perform a thoracotomy tonight.

Doctor Kim and Doctor Lin glanced at each other and went to check on their own patients. As they left, they checked their watches.
