"Was there any problem with the surgery today?"
The next morning, while scrubbing in, Liu Banxia asked.
"Teacher Liu, are you really going to let me be the chief surgeon?" Xu Yino asked with some hesitation.
"Of course. I already accepted your bribe. Since I've eaten from your hand, I must do you this favor," Liu Banxia said seriously.
Su Wenhao looked at Xu Yino with a knowing smile, aware of the pressure she was under.
After all, performing surgery on the neck required extra caution. The only similar surgery she had observed was for a thyroid cyst, and this was her first time actually performing one.
"I can do it. I'm definitely up for it," Xu Yino said, trying to sound confident.
It was unclear whether she was trying to bolster her own courage, reassure Liu Banxia, or perhaps both.
Walking into the operating room, the patient was already prepared on the operating table.
