Hearing himself praised, Yang Tao naturally felt excited and elated.
This long-missed, simple joy was something no one could have expected—no, that’s not right, Qin Xiang should have known!
With this thought, Yang Tao glanced at Qin Xiang, smiled triumphantly, and signaled: Look, Dr. Chen praised me!
Which caused Qin Xiang to roll his eyes.
Seeing this, Chen Cang sighed. That’s all it takes to make you happy?
This generation is not easy to deal with!
Thinking this, he adopted the tone Dr. Chen had used when instructing him, and said indifferently, “When you face suturing in the future, you must not be rigid. Remember to integrate and assimilate, and keep in mind that suturing is the most basic skill.”
As he spoke, Chen Cang looked at Qin Xiang: “I just noticed a bad habit of yours, tying knots carelessly and quickly. Indeed, being fast is good, but you have to combine it with the skin’s stress points and analyze… and you, you have some issues too…”
Hearing Chen Cang point out their issues, neither of them was upset. Instead, they had an epiphany, feeling as if they had been awakened from a dream!
It has to be said, both were utterly impressed by Chen Cang’s suturing ability— so young and yet so skilled. Was he recruited talent or an overseas returnee? After finishing, Chen Cang looked at Xu Ruoyun’s sutured leg and nodded, very satisfied!
If the total score were out of too, Chen Cang would give himself 1000 points. After all, it’s essential to give an extra dose of encouragement, support, and cheers. Adding up to 1000 points is not much; it’s a solid score.
Chen Cang smiled: “What do you guys think?”
At this moment, Yang Tao and Qin Xiang hurriedly began to inspect it closely. However, upon looking, both were stunned!
It was because I glanced at you one more time amidst the crowd …
I could never forget your face again!
The washed leg skin was now firmly sutured together. This palm-sized wound took nearly an hour to suture. Though it seemed simple, only the two involved knew it was not easy at all!
Especially at the beginning, perhaps they hadn’t anticipated so much, but seeing the result on the leg now.
Qin Xiang and Yang Tao couldn’t help but exchange a glance, seeing shock in each other’s eyes!
No wonder he chose to suture like that earlier, so that’s how it is! Linking the before and after together, recalling the earlier procedure, and seeing the current outcome, they finally understood. Although hindsight is 20/20, they felt a touch of sentimentality.
But Chen Cang hasn’t been here long, has he? From the moment he entered the door to start suturing, it wasn’t even half an hour, right?
He planned it all out in his mind in just half an hour?
That’s a bit too incredible.
Talent!
This is talent!
Qin Xiang felt he had lived half a lifetime in envy, admiring such promising youth. He etched Chen Cang’s advice in his memory, intending to reflect on it thoroughly when he got back.
Because the suturing was too fantastic!
The two observed how the shape, color, and lines of the rose tattoo had hardly changed, and it seemed even more beautiful!
Qin Xiang was deeply moved. The suturing was so meticulous it could be considered a work of art!
Every stitch was classic.
How does that song go again?
The suturing like a painting? (Is this scene like a painting?) Graffiti on the wound? (Drawing in the sand in the courtyard?) Waiting for our astonishment? (Waiting for our myth?) Waiting for the miracle to happen! (Waiting for the vows to fall!) Thinking this, Qin Xiang saw Yang Tao pulling out his phone and snapping away at the leg.
He was taken aback, that’s right!
Take pictures and look at them closely later.
By now, Chen Cang had already called An Jing in: “Mr. Zheng, I’ve finished suturing, take a look and see what you think.”
On hearing this, Zheng Guotan’s eyes lit up. It’s done? He immediately pulled open the door and walked in.
Seeing old Qin talcing photos of his girlfriend’s legs with his phone, he was startled for a moment, “Old Qin, what are you doing!”
He and Qin Xiang had been childhood friends, growing up together. Whenever there was an issue, he would turn to Qin Xiang first to help him find someone.
Qin Xiang was the head of the dermatology department at Dongda Hospital and carried a lot of weight in this field.
Old Qin marveled with a tsk-tsk and said offhandedly, “These legs are looking good now, I need to take some more pictures, go back and appreciate them properly, ponder over them a bit.”
These words caused Yang Tao, standing by, to tremble and almost drop his phone to the ground.
And Zheng Guotan’s face was completely dumbfounded! You’re taking pictures of my girlfriend’s legs and planning to go back and appreciate and analyze them?
The scene fell into a moment of silence!
Chen Cang didn’t dare to speak either.
Suddenly, Qin Xiang realized what was happening and slapped his forehead:
“Oh man, old Zheng, what in the hell are you thinking about? I’m talking about how neatly the leg is stitched up, come and take a look!”
Zheng Guotan quickly came over and, looking at the wound on the leg, was also stunned.
Was this the same wound that was bloody and gory just now?
The stitching was meticulous!
Even the petals of the tattooed rose had been taken into account.
Exquisite!
Delicate!
A work of art.
Combined with that long, white leg, Zheng Guotan exclaimed with emotion, this is Xu Ruoyun’s leg, able to “leg” for another year!
This is more like it!
Excited, Zheng Guotan blurted out:
“Good!”
“Good!”
“Good!”
The continuous shouts of approval also made Chen Cang quite proud.
Xu Ruoyun didn’t speak much throughout the event, as she didn’t know what to say. Her situation was quite awkward now, with the mistress beaten by the legitimate party, her mood was down, compounded by the injury to her legs, her emotions had hit a low point today.
She was set to start shooting a new film soon, and with her leg in that condition, she felt a wave of loss just thinking about it.
However, at this moment, when she saw the stitched wound on her leg, she was shocked as well — it looked as good as new?
Of course not!
It wasn’t as good as new, in fact, it looked even better than before!
Chen Cang cleverly placed the inevitable stitch marks on the petals, subtly highlighting them and making the rose look even more beautiful!
Art!
Xu Ruoyun couldn’t help but want to look down at her leg, but Chen Cang quickly said:
“You must not move this leg for the next few days!”
“I’ve used number four sutures to stitch you up, they’re very finespun, and they will easily break if you apply any force, so you must be very careful, and pay close attention — no exertion…”
“Once it’s healed fairly well, that’ll be okay. But during this time, remember!
You absolutely must not contaminate it, remember not to get it wet…”
Chen Cang’s words were very persuasive now!
Zheng Guotan kept nodding incessantly.
Xu Ruoyun’s eyes were filled with gratitude as she looked at Chen Cang, “Doctor, thank you!”
Chen Cang smiled and shook his head.
[Ding! Secondary task completed: stitch up Xu Ruoyun. Rewards: i. KIM sutures (green); 2. Suturing experience +200; 3. Medical experience +200; 4. Final task triggered, engage Zheng Guotan in a private conversation, and after a careful chat, you’ll receive a hint for the final task.]
Chen Cang nodded in satisfaction, not bad!
A rewarding harvest!
