Xia Shu couldn't miss the implication in those words, but he was no longer the naive Xia Shu of the past. He said calmly, "The patient has been hospitalized for many days, and the preoperative examination is very thorough. We're just waiting to consult Professor Yang on the surgical plan."
"Oh! I have surgery tomorrow, and time is a bit tight," Director He continued.
"Surgery tomorrow? That means you guys are quite confident. Our case is too complicated, and we're not ready to schedule the surgery yet," Xia Shu replied with a smile. His tone was gentle, but the meaning was clear: Your patient is simple, so you dare to schedule the surgery; our patient is complex, so we need to be cautious.
Director He felt a spark of annoyance inside.
You brat, aren't you aware that your Cardiac Surgery Department is already so advanced? Can't you provide some opportunities and time for the brother departments?
