Check-in at the Hospital: The First Surgery Shocked the Nation!-Chapter 219 - 145: Life-Saving Acupuncture, ECMO Has Arrived!

Chapter 219: Chapter 145: Life-Saving Acupuncture, ECMO Has Arrived!

"Go faster."

On the Jiangcheng highway, an ambulance was speeding at 140 km/h.

But Zhang Fan was still anxious, urging the driver to go even faster.

He knew Qin Feng’s temperament; if it wasn’t an emergency, he wouldn’t have called to ask him to bring the extracorporeal circulation system.

Because ECMO is usually used for extracorporeal breathing and circulation in cardiopulmonary surgery, such as in cases of severe cardiopulmonary failure, heart transplants, and other large-scale dangerous surgeries involving expensive equipment.

Besides temporarily substituting the patient’s cardiopulmonary functions, relieving them of their burden, it also buys medical personnel more time for treatment.

Once this equipment is used, the situation is likely very dire!

The patient could lose their life at any moment!

So Zhang Fan was racing against time, hoping to arrive as soon as possible.

"Director Zhang, we can’t go any faster; we’ve entered the heavy rain zone. Safety first!"

The driver was also in a dilemma, although they had years of experience driving ambulances.

But in such a stormy weather, driving too fast could lead to an accident, and the responsibility would be immense.

"Just do your fastest!" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Zhang Fan was a bit anxious, muttering under his breath,

"I hope we can make it in time, nothing must happen...

Nurse Chief Yuan, please check all the equipment and medicine again to see if anything is missing."

"Okay."

...

Meanwhile,

In the family quarters of Jinling, Su Province, a phone call woke up a middle-aged couple from their deep sleep.

Ring-ring-ring~

"Old Chai, who is it? It’s so late at night."

The woman was the first to wake up, reaching for her phone to check the time, it was just past three in the morning,

"You barely slept for half an hour, is there something again?"

"I don’t know, wait a minute."

The man got up, put on his glasses, picked up the phone and saw the caller ID: Chen Jianglai,

"It’s a call from Jianglai."

"Jianglai?"

Upon hearing this, the woman immediately perked up, sitting up straight,

"Quick, answer it, is it about our son?"

Hearing this, the man’s expression immediately darkened, he glanced at the woman displeased, said nothing, but still picked up the phone.

"Hello, Jianglai."

"Old leader, I’m sorry to disturb you so late."

Secretary Chen’s voice came from the phone in Orchard Town.

"It’s okay, I just finished being busy and haven’t slept yet, hehehe~"

The man chuckled, his tone somewhat relaxed,

"I noticed recently that your Orchard Town seems to be quite affected by the typhoon, how’s it going? Is the damage serious?"

"Thank you for your concern, old leader. The typhoon is almost over, and tomorrow we will begin assessing the damage and proceed with rebuilding."

Secretary Chen also smiled while reporting, but his heart was pounding with tension.

He didn’t know how to say it~

"Very good, Jianglai. The upcoming work is the key, make sure the people are properly settled, medical and living guarantees must be in place, don’t let others say we’re just good-for-nothings."

The man nodded, instinctively launching into an ideological lecture.

"Yes, yes, old leader, you’re right."

Secretary Chen wiped the sweat off his forehead, forcing a stiff smile.

Beside him, Qin Feng could barely hold back.

At this time, whom is he calling?

It can’t be to report work, right now?

Isn’t he asking for criticism?

Could it be... related to Chai Zhongjun beside him?

"Oh, you’re like this, always lecturing others, aren’t you?"

The woman beside him impatiently grabbed the phone, pressing the speaker button,

"Jianglai, you’re calling so late, is it related to Zhongjun?"

Hearing the woman’s voice, Secretary Chen hesitated for a moment.

"Yes, ma’am."

"How is Xiaojun doing now? Is he doing well there?"

The woman asked excitedly upon hearing this.

"Hmph!

Why are you asking him?!"

Before Chen Jianglai could speak, the man interrupted, speaking harshly,

"He didn’t want to properly study, got admitted to the graduate program at Beijing Science and Technology University only to not attend, insists on being some grassroots official!

With his inexperienced ways, how can he help the people do real work, lead them out of poverty to prosperity?

Truly impulsive! Look at him when he returns next year, just wait until I properly discipline him to engage in scientific research obediently!"

"See, you! Everything was going well, why this stubborn attitude again?"

Hearing this, the woman was visibly displeased,

"Our son wants to follow your path, and you’re not happy?

Let me tell you, if you make it so that I can only see my son every ten years, be prepared for the rest of your life!"

"Why are you like this? Can’t you have a bit of a broad mind?"

The man hearing this furrowed his brow, though still somewhat angry, his voice softened considerably,

"Xiaojun’s temperament just isn’t suited for this kind of work!

Do you know how much hardship and danger it takes to be a good leader accountable to both the upper and lower levels, and yourself?

One careless moment, and you’re pulverized!

How many life-and-death experiences have I had over the years? Which wasn’t fraught with peril, walking on thin ice?

Xiaojun engaging in scientific research is also contributing to the country, enhancing our strength abroad!

The stronger Jiuzhou Country becomes, the more choices the people have, something a woman can’t possibly understand!"

"You understand, you understand!"

The woman twisted his arm viciously, letting out a cold laugh,

"I married into the Chai family only to earn a hollow reputation, son isn’t around, husband is busy out of sight.

Truly owed something to the Chai family in a past life~"

"Hehehe~"

On the other end of the call, Chen Jianglai, listening to the couple’s exchange, could only manage an awkward chuckle.
