Chapter 966 Announcement
Chapter 966: Chapter 966 Announcement
Bai Xiao took off her surgical cap, truly exhausted.
Her special ability allowed her to perform with an almost unparalleled focus, earning her unanimous praise from the surgeons.
Anyone who has ever watched Dr. Bai’s surgeries would feel the same: when Dr. Bai is operating, she’s simply not the same Dr. Bai.
The level of focus and pursuit of perfection! No one could compete with it. So far, no one has come across a doctor like Dr. Bai.
The moment she picks up the scalpel, it’s as if she becomes the entire world.
What surprised both Dr. Xue and Zhang Huan was that, with all the interns they had trained in surgery, Bai Xiao’s growth was simply astonishing.
Their task was to lead these interns, to help them become more experienced and capable of working independently.
Bai Xiao’s speed of improvement was incredible.
It was as if there was nothing she couldn’t learn. She absorbed knowledge like a sponge and could master it perfectly after only one attempt.
This kind of growth in Bai Xiao felt almost too rapid.
It was truly hard not to like her.
Bai Xiao walked out of the operating room.
Zhang Huan accompanied a provincial surgical expert as they exited a nearby conference room.
Because of Bai Xiao’s exceptional surgical skills, they had specifically imported advanced foreign video technology and arranged for a specialized operating room to facilitate observation and learning for other doctors.
The experts were escorted away by designated doctors, and Zhang Huan came to find Bai Xiao.
"Junior, how’s it going? The internship placements should start by now, right?"
He was eager to recruit Bai Xiao under his wing.
A doctor like this comes around once in a millennium.
If she wasn’t working under him, something surely would go wrong.
Bai Xiao still had another year of internship left.
Zhang Huan intended to pull some strings to transfer Bai Xiao directly to Ruiyin. A talent like this could not be missed.
However, Dr. Xue didn’t agree.
Bai Xiao was a soldier, and they all understood that.
Compared to Ruiyin Hospital, Bai Xiao was different; her priorities in life were different too.
Dr. Xue was a good mentor, never forcing anyone to do what they didn’t want to do.
The only time he bent this rule was to insist on Bai Xiao acting as an assistant, trying to spark her passion for medicine.
That could probably count as Dr. Xue’s first and only time breaking precedent.
Bai Xiao smiled faintly, "Senior, I think the list is going to be announced today. I’ll go take a look later. Anyway, it’s the professors who handle internship distribution, and I haven’t had any chance to intervene at all." She wasn’t worried about her placement.
Dr. Xue was practically itching to bring Bai Xiao over to Ruiyin now.
Ever since Mike’s surgery, Ruiyin had gained a new accolade in the field of neurosurgery and oncology.
The number of patients requesting craniotomies there had increased significantly.
Thanks to Bai Xiao’s report, many doctors were now sharing it with each other, and almost everyone had a copy of Dr. Bai’s neurosurgery report.
It had essentially become a textbook example for Ruiyin Hospital.
The main reason? It was so detailed.
Many people admired Dr. Bai greatly.
The way she could replicate a surgical process in fine detail, like a frame-by-frame movie in a theater—who wouldn’t be convinced?
"Alright then, get over here as soon as you can. I’ve already prepared a dorm room for you. The conditions are excellent, and there are several upcoming craniotomy surgeries that need your participation. Opportunities like these are rare. You know, even though Ruiyin is a first-class hospital, neurosurgery is still one of our weaker specialties. With your involvement, more surgeons can join and learn advanced techniques. That makes me really happy."
Zhang Huan wasn’t trying to flatter Bai Xiao; this was genuine confidence. Just the fact that Bai Xiao could point out issues and correct flaws for Smith was proof enough! Who else at Ruiyin could compare to her?
Even he stepped aside for her.
"Senior, I’ll go take care of the paperwork and get there as soon as possible." Bai Xiao also wanted the internship.
Her skills needed further improvement. She hoped that, by the time she returned to the Military District Hospital, she would be a fully qualified doctor proficient in both Chinese and Western medicine.
After changing out of her clothes, Bai Xiao returned to the university.
Sure enough, the announcement of internship placements was up, and a crowd had gathered below to check which hospital they were assigned to.
This was a big deal.
Bai Xiao looked at the crowd, decided not to squeeze through, and opted to return to the dormitory first, planning to check later when it was less crowded.
In any case, she was confident that she’d be placed at Ruiyin. Even if she wanted to choose a different hospital, Dr. Xue wouldn’t allow it. noveldrama
With Dr. Xue’s authority at the Medical University, even Vice Principal Zhao wouldn’t dare make a controversial decision.
It was practically guaranteed.
Back in the dormitory, she saw Ma Yao curled up under a blanket, her head buried beneath, while He Juan and Lin Xiang were trying to comfort her.
"What’s going on?"
Bai Xiao was puzzled.
Ma Yao was always bold and outspoken. It was out of character for her to sulk like this; she was the type to unleash her anger directly, no questions asked.
"What else could it be? It’s about the internship placements. Ma Yao got assigned to Songshi Hospital in the suburbs. It’s so remote that it takes three bus transfers to get there. Not to mention the harsh conditions. There’s only one doctor there, and the hospital is basically a clinic. It’s so understaffed and under-equipped that going there is practically the same as not having an internship," He Juan explained with a sigh.
Students like them, without any connections, faced a steep uphill battle during internships.
If you succeeded, you could soar to great heights. If you failed, it was like a dragon trapped in the shallows, never to rise again.
She and Lin Xiang weren’t much better off either. The hospitals they were assigned to were so far away, it was as if they’d been banished to the borders.
It wasn’t just complaining—they knew deep down that going to those hospitals meant a lifetime as a small-time doctor, with little hope of achieving anything substantial.
It was tough.
"What about you two?"
Bai Xiao hadn’t imagined this issue; she thought everyone would be assigned to different hospitals but wouldn’t end up in such dire straits.
She still didn’t fully grasp the intricacies of interpersonal connections. Bai Xiao was straightforward in her thinking, and if it weren’t for Dr. Xue and her uncle shielding her, she probably wouldn’t have secured a good placement this time either.
In fact, the internship list had been finalized two months ago, with the university holding two special meetings to discuss and plan the allocations.
The assignment of each student to their respective units had already been predetermined.
To minimize student unrest and chaos, the university leadership decided to prioritize placements for outstanding students. For those with average qualifications—especially those lacking connections—most of them ended up being lumped together into one category. Naturally, when it came to execution, relationships still played a significant role.
Only then did Bai Xiao understand.
"Bai Xiao, you don’t know. The hospital Ma Yao got assigned to is practically a thousand miles away. After this internship, she’ll have no choice but to leave Modu. Leaving Modu means going back to her hometown. You know her family’s situation. Her parents have high hopes for her. They’re counting on her to make something of herself to support her younger siblings. Now, it’s all turned into a pipe dream."
Both He Juan and Lin Xiang sighed.
What could they do? They had no connections.
Even students less qualified than them were placed in good hospitals, but they weren’t so lucky.
What do you think?
