Overpowered Resident Doctor-Chapter 94: A Moment of Desperation
When Yan Feifan returned to the hospital's emergency department, he was surprised to find two separate groups of people waiting for him.
One group consisted of Mrs. Xia, the owner of Xinfeng Restaurant, and a man in his fifties with a weathered face.
The other was Luo Wei, the young woman with the slightly high-arched brows, along with her parents.
In order of their arrival, Yan Feifan saw Mrs. Xia and the weathered-looking man first.
It had been over a week since Mrs. Xia's surgery.
The swelling from her double eyelid surgery had completely subsided, but the surgical marks would still take a few more days to fade away entirely.
However, this didn't detract from the results. The way her eyes blinked now held a newfound allure.
"Mr. Yan, this is Yo Liguo. He's the vegetable supplier for my restaurant, a very honest man."
After the brief introduction, Mrs. Xia explained the purpose of their visit. "Mr. Yo has a son who's almost nineteen this year."
"When he was a child, his son was bitten in the face by a dog, and it left a large scar."
"We were hoping to consult with you and see if you could perform plastic surgery on it."
Yan Feifan gave a soft "Oh" and turned to Yo Liguo, who was standing rather stiffly. "Mr. Yo, do you have a photo?"
"A photo, yes, yes, yes!"
Yo Liguo answered hurriedly, adding, "I just sell vegetables at the market. I'm not really a 'boss.'"
He handed over his phone and sighed softly. "He's already nineteen. With a scar like that on his face, it's hard to find a wife!"
Yan Feifan took the phone and looked at the picture on the screen. He saw that the young man in the photo had a sunken scar, about three by six centimeters, on his right jawbone.
Yan Feifan looked up at Yo Liguo. "The muscle in this area on your son, I assume it was…"
Yo Liguo nodded. "Bitten off by the dog. If a neighbor hadn't found him in time, that vicious dog might have eaten him."
"Mr. Yan, what about my son's condition?"
'His son's condition is similar to Yanyan's, but much less severe.'
'In fact, Yan Feifan had been constantly thinking about how to restore Yanyan's face.'
'For Yanyan's face to look natural again, to allow her to laugh and show a full range of emotions, autologous tissue transplantation was the only real option.'
'But that would involve the delicate grafting of facial nerves, a procedure of incredible difficulty.'
'Mr. Yo's son's case, however, was far less difficult. It seemed to be mainly a matter of transplanting his own muscle tissue.'
Yan Feifan continued to study the picture on the phone, murmuring thoughtfully, "There is a solution."
"But I can't tell just from a photo. Your son will need to come in for a detailed examination."
Yo Liguo glanced at Mrs. Xia beside him before saying, "Mr. Yan, you're the top student of the plastic surgery expert, Dr. Wang. If you say there's a way, then there must be a way."
"I'll arrange for my son to come to Binhai for an examination as soon as possible."
Yan Feifan handed the phone back to Yo Liguo and reminded him, "This plastic surgery will be quite time-consuming."
"And the cost of the surgery won't be low."
Yo Liguo asked with a worried expression, "Mr. Yan, can you give me a ballpark figure?"
"Just so I can be prepared."
Yan Feifan wasn't actually very familiar with the pricing for plastic surgery.
He gave a high estimate to be safe. "One hundred thousand should be enough."
Yo Liguo nodded slowly, calculating aloud, "With my son's face as it is, it might cost me two or three hundred thousand, maybe even more, to find him a wife."
"Spending one hundred thousand to fix his face… it's worth it!"
'Yan Feifan found this line of reasoning quite interesting; it was filled with the simple, practical wisdom of a working man.'
After seeing Mrs. Xia and Yo Liguo out of the treatment cubicle, Yan Feifan invited in Luo Wei, her parents, and Mrs. Xv, who had been waiting outside.
"So, have you made a decision?"
Yan Feifan had barely finished speaking when Mr. Luo replied in a disgruntled tone, "She was at home threatening to kill herself. We had to agree, whether we wanted to or not."
"Mr. Yan, let's be clear. If the results of the surgery aren't satisfactory…"
Hearing this, Mrs. Xv, who was standing to the side, knew things were about to go south.
She hurriedly interrupted him, "Now, now, listen to yourself."
"Mr. Yan said he was confident, which means there's a very high probability of the surgery being a success."
"But there's always a small chance of something going wrong. We can't ask Mr. Yan for a one-hundred-percent guarantee."
Mr. Luo's face hardened, and his voice rose a notch. "No guarantee on the results? How is that acceptable?"
"We can't just spend the money and go through all that pain only to end up looking like a monster, can we?"
Yan Feifan could see what was happening now.
'Luo Wei's father was still dead set against his daughter having the surgery. He was likely trying to cause trouble on purpose.'
'This was exactly the kind of situation doctors dreaded most before performing plastic surgery.'
'Yan Feifan was no exception.'
His patience snapped, and he refused them outright. "Regarding this plastic surgery, whatever you decide, don't come looking for me again."
"This is a hospital, the emergency department no less. Please leave. Don't interfere with my work."
Seeing that Yan Feifan was kicking them out, Mrs. Xv cried out anxiously, "Mr. Yan…"
She trailed off, suddenly stopping herself.
'The key to this whole mess was Luo Wei's parents.'
'With an attitude like that, any doctor would refuse to operate on Luo Wei.'
Mrs. Xv changed her tune. "I'm so sorry, Mr. Yan. I'll apologize to you properly later."
She then turned to Mr. Luo and said angrily, "You're making a huge scene for me at my own workplace!"
"You should have just kept disagreeing from the start! What's the meaning of pulling a stunt like this now?"
"Come outside with me. We're going to have a proper talk…"
Mrs. Xv's sudden assertiveness stunned Luo Wei's parents.
However, the first to leave the treatment cubicle was Luo Wei, who ran out crying.
Luo Wei's parents and Mrs. Xv chased after her…
At nearly ten o'clock that night, Yan Feifan was in his room studying the latest medical journals when he received a video call from Tian Yu.
His sister, in bunny cartoon pajamas, and Xiaoyu, in panda pajamas, appeared on the screen together, their faces flushed.
"Mr. Yan, have you missed us?"
Yan Feifan replied flatly, "No."
Tian Yu made a face at the screen. "Mr. Yan, the air on the mountain is so fresh, and it's so quiet. Sleeping here is just the best."
Yan Feifan, ever the wet blanket, said, "Don't forget to study. With your level of intelligence, if you don't get into a top high school, you can forget about a top university."
Tian Yu giggled. "Ruoruo said there are two ways for a girl to change her fate. One is to be self-reliant, and the other is to marry a good husband."
She touched her own cheek and said smugly, "And Ruoruo said I have pretty good assets."
Yan Feifan was thoroughly exasperated. "Sis…" he said in a tone of complaint.
Just then, the video feed became shaky and blurry, and Yan Ziruo's voice came through the phone, "I was just joking with Xiaoyu."
"I'll have a good talk with her…"
Yan Feifan stared at the disconnected call, shook his head speechlessly, put down his phone, and went back to studying his medical papers…
Past eleven o'clock that night, just as he was drifting off to sleep, Yan Feifan was jolted awake by the frantic ringing of his phone.
He fumbled for his phone and saw it was a call from Mrs. Xv.
"Mr. Yan, Mr. Yan! Luo Wei got into a fight with her family, and in a moment of desperation, she… she cut her own face…!"
