Chapter 15 Neurosurgery

The next day, early morning, Li Hang drove Xu Muqing to the pier project site. Along the way, Xu Muqing would periodically turn her head, stealing several looks at Li Hang. After her repeated glances, Li Hang could not help but asked, “Are there leftover rice grains on my chin?” Xu Muqing shook her head. “Then, why do you keep staring at me?” The more she interacted with Li Hang, the more Xu Muqing realized that Li Hang was like a bottomless pit, with enigmatic secrets and completely unreadable. Before she realized, Li Hang had transformed her family. “Didn’t you realize that today’s breakfast was exceptionally sumptuous?” “Century egg and pork porridge, deep-fried small spring rolls, fried buns, and freshly fried dough sticks from Old Wang’s.” “In the past, we only had such merry once every couple of months.” Li Hang grinned widely, “That’s because Ma dotes on me!” “She is my Ma and not yours.” As Xu Muqing spoke, there was a hint of envy lingering in her voice. It was such a short period since Li Hang appeared in her household, and he managed to win her mother’s favor. If this continues, she would have to start worrying for the future! “It’s all the same! As the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a biological son.” As soon as he mentioned this matter, Xu Muqing’s expression immediately turned stone-cold. “I’ve told you; I already have someone in my heart.” “What’s his name?” Li Hang immediately followed. Habitually, Xu Muqing was about to answer, “His name is...” However, she quickly reacted and glared at Li Hang, “You’re annoying!” If he had another name, Xu Muqing would have answered. Alas, fate was cruel. How could the names of these two people be the same! Not to mention, after a long time of interaction with Li Hang, Xu Muqing felt as if they had met before. Back then, that little boy was also a little homeless beggar. He would take care of her and protect her as Li Hang did for her now. Coincidentally, the duo shared the same name. Could it be that they are the same person? At that thought, Xu Muqing was puzzled. All of a sudden, Xu Muqing found Li Hang eating by the side. Surprised, she asked, “What are you eating?” Li Hang smiled and said, “Chocolates.” Hearing that it was chocolates, she immediately stretched out her slender, snow-white palm. “Give me one too.” Shockingly, Li Hang rejected her request, “No.” Xu Muqing was stunned. This man could buy a car that cost hundreds of thousands without batting an eye, but when it came to a small piece of chocolate, he was extraordinarily stingy! Xu Muqing pouted her thin, rosy lips as she pouted, “Stingy!” In reality, it was not that Li Hang was stingy. However, he could not risk letting Xu Muqing catch an eye of the old chocolate tin box that carried the chocolates! Xu Muqing faced Li Hang, asking, “There were so many bodyguards yesterday, but you defeated them in the blink of an eye.” “Somehow, I think you are as a martial arts master from a martial arts novel?” Li Hang grinned and said, “I used to follow an old beggar around.” “He told me that the Heavens blessed me with exceptional physique and that I am destined to become a great hero in the future.” “Then, he handed me several books of secret martial arts techniques...” “Stop.” Xu Muqing snorted, “Even the TV series have more believable plotlines.” “If you continue with this plot, you might even say that you learnt the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.” Li Hang smiled and said, “Although it’s not that exaggerated, it’s similar.” Li Hang stretched out his hands, continuing, “The people around me call these hands - Hands of God.” Xu Muqing sighed helplessly. At this moment, she felt as if she could never get a word of truth from Li Hang’s mouth. When they arrived at the construction site, Xu Muqing immediately got off the car and led the workers to work. Before Li Hang left, he shouted to Xu Muqing. “There was not a single lie in everything I said.” Xu Muqing answered without turning her head, “Whatever, I don’t believe it.” After that, Li Hang brought Xu Xiaoyang to the hospital. When Xu Xiaoyang was undergoing a CT scan, Li Hang heard a man’s exasperated cry for help in the corner of the corridor. “Please, save my mother!” Thump! “Please!” Thump! “Please!” Thump! Li Hang followed the sound and saw a man kneeling on the ground and repeatedly kowtowing to a nurse! Li Hang’s brows furrowed, and he stepped forward immediately. This man had a strong built, extraordinarily muscular and sturdy. From a glance, Li Hang could tell that this man had a solid foundation and was a practitioner of martial arts. What could make a man like that to kneel on the ground and beg like a hopeless child? Li Hang couldn’t hold in his curiosity. “What happened?” When the nurse heard Li Hang’s voice, she appeared to be relieved. She was one of the few people who knew of Li Hang’s identity in the entire hospital. To ensure that the nurses served Xu Muqing to their best effort, the President of the hospital chose a small group of employees to reveal Li Hang’s identity as the owner. She was one of them. “Bo...*cough cough* Mr. Li.” “This patient’s mother is suffering from severe fluid accumulation in her brain.” “And there is a shadow that can’t be seen clearly.” “Currently, his mother is in a very precarious situation.” “However, the old lady of the Cui family suddenly fainted and was admitted to our hospital.” “The three Neurologist in the hospital were deployed to care for her.” As the nurse reported the situation to Li Hang, the man raised his head and said to Li Hang. “Are you a doctor? Please save my mother!” Li Hang was not a nosy person, and he had witnessed too much of lives and deaths. However, in this world, there was a type of person who he would undoubtedly help. A person of filial piety! Li Hang immediately instructed the nurse. “Ready the operating room!” “Yes!” Without delay, the nurse turned and ran. On her phone, she sent a message to the small informed group of employees. “The boss is going to do an operation again, prepare the equipment!!” …… Three minutes later, in the operating room. All the preparations were ready. Even Director Yang sneaked in. He wanted to see for himself if this Mr. Li was indeed that amazing! The hair of a middle-aged woman had been completely shaved. The patient’s scalp had also been thoroughly disinfected and covered with a sterile dressing. After the anesthesiologist performed an infiltration anesthesia on the patient, Li Hang extended his left hand to the nurse next to him, “Scalpel.” The moment he took the piece of cold steel, Li Hang’s hands worked like magic. Lightning-fast! Director Yang’s jaw dropped as his eyes widened in disbelief! Until this moment, Director Yang did not believe that the Mr. Li in front of him was an expert! No wonder the President held him in such high regards! Now the man just wanted to give his own big mouth a few good slaps! “Plastic scalp clip.” The nurse wholly followed Li Hang’s instructions and handed him the tools without delay. At the same time, Li Hang’s hands worked like magician. With extreme speed, he performed his arts on the patient’s scalp; and the next instant, the bleeding was stopped. Afterwards, Li Hang used a scalpel to separate the layers of the scalp, then he cut the periosteum with the scalpel and flipped it over. “Pneumatic craniotomy.” Li Hang took the cranial drill and made an opening in the patient’s head. “Milling knife.” The nurse quickly handed a high-speed milling knife to Li Hang. With the knife, Li Hang made a few light cuts, and the patient’s bone flap was removed perfectly. On the sidelines, Director Yang’s eyes never left Li Hang’s hands. As he watched, his fist clenched as admiration and excitement welled up in his heart. This is simply too exciting! Just like a top-tier, peerless arts performance!
