CH 75.1

Shen Fangyu immediately Dr.opped the water and sandwich, while lamenting the good luck Jiang Xu brought him, and quickly ran downstairs.

A sedan stopped at the entrance of the villa, and three people got out of the car. Shen Fangyu immediately recognized the last person to get off as Dr. Albert. The man’s light brown hair was particularly recognizable, even though he was wearing a mask, Shen Fangyu could still roughly see the outline of his eyebrows and eyes by the moonlight.

Without hesitation, Shen Fangyu rushed over before Dr Albert entered the door, and called out his name from behind.

Dr. Albert turned back in surprise, apparently not expecting someone to be near his villa at this time.

At the same time, the two men who got off the car before him quickly walked two steps in front of him, assuming a defensive posture.

“Who is it?” The two of them asked at the same time.

Seeing the three of them stop their movements, Shen Fangyu slowed down, turned on the flashlight on his phone, and walked towards them step by step.

The moment Dr. Albert saw his face clearly, he exclaimed, “Dr. Shen? What are you doing here?”

The two men in black exchanged a glance, and Dr. Albert waved his hand at them, “Don’t worry, this is my friend from country Z.”

After saying that, he pointed at the two black-clothed men and introduced them to Shen Fangyu, “These are my bodyguards.”

“Bodyguards?”

“Yes.”

Dr. Albert led Shen Fangyu into his villa and gestured towards the sofa in the living room, saying, “Please have a seat.”

After the two bodyguards entered, one stood by Dr. Albert’s side while the other explored the villa room by room. They exchanged a glance and then both retreated to the door, leaving the space for the two doctors to talk.

Dr. Albert glanced at the two bodyguards casually, loosened his tie, and crossed his legs lazily on the sofa.

Despite his nonchalant demeanor, Shen Fangyu could still see the exhaustion on his face.

“You’ve been waiting outside my house all this time?” Dr. Albert asked.

Shen Fangyu didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, “Yes, I came to ask you what happened after the live broadcast was interrupted.”

“This is unlike you, Dr. Shen,” Dr. Albert suddenly chuckled. “This is the first time you’ve talked to me with such a clear purpose. I thought you would at least exchange some pleasantries with me, ask about my well-being, or perhaps tell me that you came because you were worried about me.”

Shen Fangyu realized that he had been a bit anxious, and he paused for a moment, about to make up for it, but Dr. Albert didn’t seem to care and said, “But it’s okay, let’s just say you came for me.”

He continued, “After the incident, I haven’t seen any of my friends for several days.”

“Originally, there should have been a celebration party here at this time, and my violinist friends would have opened a bottle of champagne for me.” He spread his hands self-deprecatingly. “But unfortunately, there’s no party now, no champagne, and no violin.”

Shen Fangyu looked at him without speaking. Perhaps in times like these, silence is the best comfort in front of a proud doctor.

After a while, Dr. Albert finally sighed deeply, regained his composure, and threw four words at him, “There were blood clots.”

“Due to the pressure of the fetus during pregnancy, congestion of the organs occurred in the patient’s body, leading to the formation of venous blood clots. After the removal of the ovaries, the process of reconnecting a large number of blood vessels caused the blood clots to further accumulate and increase. The dosage of anticoagulant drug that we calculated in advance was not enough.”

“Combined with the removal of the fetus, the sudden release of vascular pressure caused the blood clots to rush to the lungs like a wild horse,” Dr. Albert chuckled bitterly, pointing to his chest. “And caused a pulmonary embolism.”

“Is the person still alive?” Shen Fangyu asked.

“Yes, but still in a coma,” Dr. Albert said.

The lungs are responsible for exchanging oxygen, and the brain is highly dependent on oxygen for its activity. Even a short period of hypoxia can cause significant damage to the brain.

Dr. Albert said, “Because of my recklessness, this incident has put my country in an embarrassing situation. The government has ordered me not to disclose the situation to the public for the time being, as for why…Dr. Shen, you’re very smart, you should be able to figure it out.”

Shen Fangyu said, “You’re still waiting for him to wake up.”

Dr. Albert nodded.

S country was originally a small country with not much presence, but now the discussions about this medical incident have intensified, causing S country, which was not usually paid much attention to, to receive widespread attention.

And now Dr. Albert’s failure has added fuel to the fire of these doubts, causing the outspoken critics to direct their criticism towards S Country. Some arrogant countries have even begun to attempt to interfere in S Country’s internal affairs.

And now, only when the patient wakes up and cooperates with media interviews can the controversy caused by the previous surgical accident be dispelled.

“Dr. Shen, I know you came here to accumulate surgical experience, but let me give you the most valuable advice, don’t touch this kind if surgery.”

Shen Fangyu did not expect Dr. Albert, who was so confident not long ago, to say such words.

Dr. Albert’s hands were loosely clasped, and a trace of melancholy could be seen in his eyes. “You have all seen the first half of the live broadcast. Those people don’t understand. You should know that my patient and Dr. Kenn’s patient… are not the same difficulty level at all.”

This kind if surgery was like opening a blind box. No matter how thorough the preoperative examination was, it would still be difficult to predict the outcome after the laparotomy.

For Dr. Albert, no one cares whether his surgery was more difficult than Dr Kenn’s. Everyone only knows that both surgeries are cesarean sections for male pregnancies, and Dr Kenn succeeded while Dr. Albert failed.

Perhaps seeing the disbelief in Shen Fangyu’s eyes, Dr. Albert persuaded, “Dr. Shen, I know you are one of the top doctors in Z Country, but reality is often cruel.”

“Like me, I have been the primary surgeon for ten years, and no patient has ever had an issue on my operating table. I was once a young prodigy, highly praised in our country. They all said I was a genius.”

He put on a mocking and exaggerated tone, “Until now, I finally understand that besides God, no one can be so arrogant as to think they are invincible.”

Shen Fangyu said, “I don’t believe in God.”

“You can choose not to believe in God, but you better not believe too much in yourself.”

Dr. Albert looked very dejected. He made a pot of coffee with boiling water for himself and poured a cup for Shen Fangyu.

“Do you have sugar?” Shen Fangyu asked.

“No,” Dr. Albert said, “Bitterness can keep people awake. I used to drink too much sweet coffee.”

Shen Fangyu lowered his eyes and took a sip of the sour black coffee, but didn’t continue.

Dr. Albert, on the other hand, drank cup after cup as if he couldn’t taste the bitterness, drinking to drown his sorrows.

“Have you been to my house in the city?” He smiled lightly, “Now I am the street mouse that everyone in S country wants to beat up. I sleep in the hospital every day, and only when I claim to need information can I come to my home and sit for a while.”

Dr. Albert pointed to the two bodyguards at the door and said, “They are also sent by the S government, to protect me during the time I take care of the patient, but also to monitor me. Do you believe it, Shen?”

He tapped his ear, “The earphones they have plugged in are listening to our conversation.”

Dr. Albert seemed to be in a state of despair, and he said casually, “But I don’t care whether they are monitoring or not. They have frozen my bank accounts. Now I am like a little white mouse locked in a cage, unable to escape from the country.”

“If my patient wakes up, I will regain my freedom, but if he dies in the ICU, I will be pushed out to apologize.”

“Oh my God, now I just hope that this poor guy can wake up, otherwise I will have nothing left, money, career, and future. Moreover, I was the one who performed his artificial insemination. If he dies, I won’t be able to forgive myself.”

As he spoke, he shed two tears, obviously long-held fears.

“Maybe your country won’t do this, or maybe as long as you don’t attract attention like me, you won’t end up like me. But Dr. Shen, you still have to think carefully about what you will bear if the surgery fails. This surgery is definitely not as easy as we thought before.”

Seeing that Shen Fangyu didn’t answer, he sincerely advised, “Although I know you came here for the result of the surgery, but seeing that you are willing to come and see me at this time, I sincerely advise you to let your patient go to Dr. Kenn for the surgery.”

“He is the best doctor in M country, with the best medical resources in the world. He also has experience of a successful surgery and top-notch response ability. Damn it, I actually praised him.”

Dr. Albert suddenly grabbed his hair, “I hate Kenn, I hate Kenn so much!”

Shen Fangyu looked over and found that Dr. Albert’s light brown hair was mixed with a lot of white hair at some point.

“Where is the patient now?” he asked.

“He has been transferred to another hospital,” Dr. Albert wiped his face and asked, “Do you want to go see him?”

Shen Fangyu thought for a long time and then said, “Yes.”

Dr. Albert’s patient was called Mr. Baker. Shen Fangyu, together with the bodyguards, drove overnight to the hospital where Mr. Baker was located.

It is said that Mr. Baker is very wealthy, with numerous small and large businesses, and is a well-known merchant in Country S.

At first, after Dr. Albert repeatedly refused his request for artificial insemination, Mr. Baker offered him a huge amount of research funding, which made Dr. Albert hesitate and eventually agree.

Now the hospital where Mr. Baker has been transferred to is a hospital in which he himself holds shares.

The special VIP independent ICU ward has only Mr. Baker as a patient, but unexpectedly, there was a woman sitting outside the ward.

She didn’t look like a medical staff, dressed delicately and elegantly, but with a depressed face, apparently not having slept for a long time.

Seeing them, she stood up and maintained a polite demeanor as she greeted Dr. Albert, and Dr. Albert pointed to Shen Fangyu, introducing him, “This is my colleague, who wants to see Mr. Baker, is that okay?”

Shen Fangyu nodded at her friendly, and her gaze briefly paused on his face before giving him a proper smile, “Of course.”
