Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

Chapter 936: Chapter 936: Accident

How could Bai Xiao know the extent of Dr. Xue’s excitement?

Behind the mirror, Dr. Xue’s senior apprentices were watching the scene with amusement. They had never seen Bai Xiao perform surgery, but judging by the present situation, the young girl was about to attempt something bold. Rabbits and humans are not the same, but as long as the experiment succeeds once, it would add valuable experience.

Still, it’s just a rabbit.

The tendon suturing this girl intended to perform was no joke. Among them, even those capable of being lead surgeons could only master this technique to its highest level in very few cases. At most, there were only two people who could achieve perfection, while the others could merely observe and learn.

To execute it manually? Simply impossible.

Without years of hands-on practice, how could anyone claim to be a suturing expert? Theory is built upon practice, especially for surgeons. Without the painstaking accumulation of repetitive tasks and the tempering gained through countless emergencies, who can truly become a surgeon?

The glamour of being a surgeon is visible to all, but few understand how arduous the journey of growth is for a surgeon.

What’s more, anyone could see that the girl standing before them was clearly a novice.

She was still contemplating the sequence of actions—her apparent thought process would amuse many. They couldn’t understand why their teacher had specifically summoned them. Was it just to watch this girl embarrass herself?

Recently, their teacher had claimed to have discovered a once-in-a-century genius, someone unparalleled. Despite their teacher’s praise, the apprentices remained unimpressed.

According to the teacher, this genius was still a student at the Medical University. Even as a prodigy, it would take at least ten years before they could truly shine.

Bai Xiao racked her brain. Her special ability was one thing, but at the very least, she needed to ensure her sequence was not wrong. noveldrama

This was no operating room, and there was no lead surgeon—she was the sole lead surgeon here.

Unity of Man and Knife.

No, unity of ability and knife.

As expected, the instant Bai Xiao’s special ability merged with the needle holder, her entire aura transformed.

A sudden surge of energy startled everyone behind the mirror.

It seemed as if the person before them was a battle-hardened veteran surgeon.

Bai Xiao’s focus was entirely on the little rabbit.

Those behind the mirror witnessed a jaw-dropping scene—she wielded her knife with such ease, like a heroic champion facing an overwhelming army with composure and confidence. Finally, they saw Bai Xiao conclude the procedure.

Dr. Xue slammed his hand on the table in exhilaration.

"Excellent, oh my!"

The crowd was shocked.

Dr. Xue’s hand had landed on the spiked edge of a pen holder, instantly resulting in a gush of blood, nearly slicing off half of his palm. A craft knife lurking ominously inside the pen holder hadn’t been retracted—it stood upright and caused this disaster. Dr. Xue was in serious trouble now.

"Quick, call for emergency assistance!"

Several students surrounded him, performing some basic first aid. Upon inspection, all of them inhaled sharply.

The severity of the injury was staggering.

"Teacher, surgery is necessary!" Zhang Huan, Dr. Xue’s senior disciple and currently the highest-ranking apprentice among them, serving as the Head of Surgery at Ruiyin Hospital, was firm. Besides Dr. Xue himself, there was likely no one else in the hospital capable of rivaling Zhang Huan’s expertise.

Zhang Huan had ascended to the pinnacle of surgical practice, a distinguished achievement at the prime age of forty.

Dr. Xue nodded, glancing at those performing basic first aid, then at his injured hand, and finally at the other side of the mirror. Bai Xiao, satisfied with her work, was gently nudging the little rabbit, coaxing it to wake up.

Little did they know that Bai Xiao had employed her special ability—not only had the operation been successful, but the rabbit’s other internal injuries were recovering at an accelerated rate. Bai Xiao was doing this to test the limits of her unity of man and knife.

The surgery she had just completed showcased the seamless integration of her special ability with the surgical tools. Such experiments on animals were rare, yet the results seemed highly promising. Compared to using her ability for rapid healing in humans, the effect here was comparable, yielding near-perfect surgical outcomes.

"Bring her along. I want her to suture my hand!"

Dr. Xue pointed at Bai Xiao, his palm throbbing with pain, yet he was unwilling to let go of this rare talent.

Zhang Huan was infuriated.

"Teacher, how could you be so irresponsible with yourself? That girl might have successfully performed the operation, but she is clearly a novice, still in the exploratory and learning phase. If you let her operate on you, the risks are enormous! Your hands are the most valuable pair to countless people. If something goes wrong and they don’t recover properly, the loss would be catastrophic."

He was angry at Dr. Xue’s lack of care for himself—Dr. Xue was renowned as the best surgeon.

Those hands were worth a fortune.

Entrusting them to an amateur was akin to setting his own troubles in motion.

Even the most promising talent couldn’t justify such recklessness.

Dr. Xue smiled. "You’ve misunderstood. She will assist you as the third assistant. For her, the opportunity to witness and work on an actual human surgery is far better than fumbling around with a rabbit. She is young, but you’ve seen it yourself—how quickly she has grown from a novice to someone accomplished. If I told you she has been practicing surgery for only a month, would you still view her with such skepticism?"

He knew his apprentice meant well but couldn’t let this opportunity slip away.

Zhang Huan was taken aback. "One month? Impossible! Teacher, you can’t favor talent to the point of exaggeration. Her techniques are still raw, but her suturing skills seem consistent, though not done under a microscope, they appear reasonably decent. She must have at least six months of experience—that’s assuming she’s only practiced on animals and has never sutured a human."

Zhang Huan genuinely believed his teacher was just shielding Bai Xiao.

Dr. Xue laughed, "If you don’t believe me, ask Vice Principal Zhao and Director Liu—they know their people better than anyone."

He knew his apprentice wouldn’t believe him outright. For that matter, even he still found it hard to believe.

Vice Principal Zhao hurried to explain, "Director Zhang, Dr. Bai was originally from the Traditional Chinese Medicine department, specializing in acupuncture. Her most distinguished achievement was replacing anesthesia with acupuncture. Transitioning to surgery was something Dr. Xue personally guided her through. It’s true that Bai Xiao joined our surgical training room only a month ago, and Director Liu oversaw this process. Previously, she was always working in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department. So what Dr. Xue said is correct—Dr. Bai has indeed only learned suturing for a month."

Zhang Huan moved his lips, dumbfounded.

A month?

The others exchanged glances, their eyes filled with questions. One month?

How could that be?

Yet, judging by the expressions of Dr. Xue, Vice Principal Zhao, and Director Liu, none of them were likely lying.

It seemed to be true.

Zhang Huan nodded.

"Then bring her along!" He acted decisively.
