Chapter 228 The operation was successful
Although the doctor said that my father was out of danger, he still needed to be observed in the ICU for a period of time.
"Well... why don't you call and ask your mother's opinion? It would be best to discuss it further." Liu Xiaofeng knew that the patients in the ICU were in a critical stage, and it wouldn't be good for so many of them to disturb them, so he asked.
“Okay.” Zhong Lisheng knew what Liu Xiaofeng was worried about, so he readily called his mother, Liao Qing.
After making the deal with Jiang Chengcheng, Zhong Lisheng had already spent time working on his mother, so no one in his family objected.
Zhong Lisheng quickly made a phone call, and after Liu Xiaofeng confirmed that Zhong Liqiao's mother had no objections, he agreed to let Zhong Lisheng sign the surgical consent form on her behalf.
The surgery was to be performed by Wu Anshun. As for why it wasn't Dean Liu Xiaofeng who performed the surgery, it wasn't that he didn't want to, but rather that the dean had been doing political work for so long that his accuracy and precision were not as good as Wu Anshun's, who was used to being on the operating table.
.........
The surgery took an exceptionally long time. Jiang Chengcheng and Zhong Lisheng wandered aimlessly around the operating room, waiting for the agonizing surgical outcome.
During this time, Minister Liang from the medical management department also rushed over. Seeing the large commotion they had made, Jiang Chengcheng felt a little embarrassed.
"Miss Jiang, I'm so sorry! I was late because of traffic!" A middle-aged man in an executive jacket rushed over, followed by several well-dressed professionals.
"You're too kind. I'm the one who's troubling you. I should be the one saying thank you. How could I trouble you to make the trip yourself? Once I'm done here, I must treat you to a proper meal to thank everyone for your help." Jiang Chengcheng knew that the other party was just being modest, so she quickly replied in a respectful manner.
"It's what I should do, no need to say thank you. But if Miss Jiang invites me to dinner another day, I will definitely go!" Minister Liang was very pleased with Jiang Chengcheng's words and returned the pleasantries.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the operating room lights behind them suddenly went out. Jiang Chengcheng looked towards the door, indicating that the surgery must have ended.
Jiang Chengcheng and Zhong Lisheng both kept their eyes fixed on the operating room door, afraid of missing a single second, anxiously waiting for the results inside.
Wow…
The operating room doors opened, and Zhong Liqiao, who had been anesthetized, was still fast asleep. Zhong Lisheng hurried over, glanced at his sister on the bed, and then asked anxiously.
"How did my sister's surgery go?"
Wu Anshun had just come out of the operating room when he heard Zhong Lisheng's words. He took off his mask, considered his words carefully, and then replied.
"The mechanical exoskeleton has been safely implanted. As for the results, we'll have to wait until she wakes up to see. But whether it's successful or not, her legs shouldn't get any worse, and she's not in any danger."
As a doctor, Wu Anshun always speaks the truth. He didn't blindly praise the mechanical exoskeleton as a sure success just because of Jiang Chengcheng's identity.
"Okay, thank you, doctor, thank you!" Zhong Lisheng knew that this matter couldn't be rushed. As long as he knew that Zhong Liqiao was not in mortal danger, he was happier than anything else.
"You're welcome, it's what I should do." Wu Anshun nodded, indicating that it was his duty.
…………
After Zhong Liqiao was taken to the intensive care unit, Minister Liang and Liu Xiaofeng waited by the side, wanting to personally check on her condition after she regained consciousness, so as to give an explanation to their superiors.
About an hour later, the effects of the anesthesia on Zhong Liqiao had mostly worn off, and she slowly woke up. Seeing so many people surrounding her, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
What's happening here?
"Miss Zhong, how are you feeling? Do you feel anything?" Among the group, Minister Liang was the most anxious because he needed to know the outcome as soon as possible. If the surgery failed, he could handle the follow-up matters quickly and prevent the spread of public opinion from damaging Jiang Chengcheng's reputation. This was the real task assigned to him by the organization.
"My leg hurts a little..." Zhong Liqiao had just woken up and hadn't quite reacted yet. She was still a bit dazed. When she finally came to her senses, she felt a sharp pain coming from her knee. The real pain made her eyes redden, and then large tears kept sliding down her cheeks.
"My legs... my legs! My legs have regained sensation! It doesn't hurt anymore! Brother! My legs hurt again!" Zhong Liqiao looked at Zhong Lisheng beside him with an excited expression. Because he was too happy, his words were incoherent.
The pain emanating from her legs didn't cause Zhong Liqiao any distress; on the contrary, the more her legs hurt, the happier she became!
How long has it been since she felt such real pain in her leg? It seems that since the car accident, she has completely lost her sense of movement.
"What? Pain? Dean Liu, what's wrong with my sister? Is she alright?" Zhong Lisheng was so worried when he heard his sister say she was in pain that he didn't catch the important part of her question.
It actually worked?!
Liu Xiaofeng, Minister Liang, and the others, being outsiders, naturally saw things more clearly. Upon hearing Zhong Liqiao's words, they were all stunned, each with their own thoughts.
Upon hearing Zhong Lisheng's question, Liu Xiaofeng was shocked, but quickly tried to reassure and explain.
"It's alright, pain is a good thing. Pain means that Miss Zhong's leg is recovering and that Miss Jiang's mechanical exoskeleton is working."
“Yes! Pain is a good thing! People only feel pain when they have physical sensations.” Minister Liang, who was standing nearby, reassured him as well.
However, the group had a much higher opinion of Jiang Chengcheng's research and development. They had originally just been thinking about cleaning up a mess, but they never expected to have encountered a true genius!
"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright." Zhong Lisheng felt relieved when he received Liu Xiaofeng's reassuring look. He looked at his sister and was happy for her as well.
Zhong Liqiao felt sleepy for a while longer, but perhaps due to the lingering effects of the anesthetic, she couldn't help but feel drowsy. The others were observant and, seeing Zhong Liqiao yawn several times, quickly got up and pretended to leave so that she could rest properly.
…………
Outside the ICU.
"Miss Jiang, what is the research principle behind your mechanical exoskeleton?"
To what extent can it restore the limb sensation of disabled people?
"Yes! Yes! Miss Jiang, do you have some time? It's already noon, let us treat you to lunch. Could you tell us about this mechanical exoskeleton?"
"To what extent can Miss Jiang's mechanical exoskeleton restore a person's ability to walk?"
"Ms. Jiang, are there any side effects after this mechanical exoskeleton implantation?"
"How much did Miss Jiang's mechanical exoskeleton cost?"
After saying goodbye to Minister Liang, Jiang Chengcheng was immediately surrounded by a group of doctors from the hospital as soon as she stepped out. Everyone was full of curiosity about the mechanical exoskeleton.
