“No, he drives a big truck, which is even harder to steer.” Xie Wanying had a profound personal experience with this from when she was young and had ridden in her father’s truck.

In the eighties and nineties, truck driving was a profitable business. Back then, her father, Old Xie, had his head held high for nearly a decade, the most glorious period being when he had his own transportation fleet with four trucks. However, less than two years after the fleet was established, there were three major accidents that resulted in total losses and fatalities. The family had to sell the house and the trucks and ended up owing several hundred thousand Yuan, essentially wiping out their entire savings.

After that, her father’s personality changed drastically, and he did many odd things. Her mother often said that her father was influenced by the elders on the Xie family side. But it was true that her father did not like daughters; he insisted on pressuring her mother to give up her job and have a son. This was a testament to the hereditary views of the Old Xie Family.

Her grandfather, Xie Yousheng, was just like her father. He had had his moments of glory when he was young, but later on, he fell into poverty. Despite such life experiences, he would still often reprimand his descendants and proudly boasted about having three sons to put down Grandpa Sun, who only had two daughters.

Admittedly, her mother and aunt were both uneducated, led ordinary lives, and didn’t have it easy. Therefore, Grandpa Sun hoped she would achieve academically to spite her paternal grandfather.

All these family memories flashed through Xie Wanying’s mind.

Qiu Ruiyun noticed something was off about her expression and did not ask further.

The flight arrived at Capital Airport.

The hospital’s ambulance came to pick them up, and on board was the head nurse from the department, entrusted by Tao Zhijie to come help.

“Thank you both for your hard work,” the head nurse said sympathetically as she looked at the dark circles under the eyes of the two young people.

“Have Teacher Tao and the others entered the operating room yet?” Qiu Ruiyun and Xie Wanying were only concerned about missing the surgery.

“Yes, they started the surgery after receiving news that your flight would land on time. That’s why I had to come and pick you up.”

After the three of them got into the ambulance, they continued on the road to the hospital.

On the way, the head nurse called the operating room to report that they would likely arrive at the hospital in about an hour, so the doctors inside would be informed.

The ambulance, with its siren blaring, sped along the road, much more convenient and faster than if they had taken a taxi themselves. The head nurse asked them, “Did you take a taxi over there?”

“Yes,” said Qiu Ruiyun.

“Nothing went wrong, did it?” Their colleagues back home were most afraid something might happen on the way.

In unison, after exchanging a glance, Qiu Ruiyun and Xie Wanying answered, “No problem, just some traffic on the road, which is why we missed the flight.”

“As long as you’re safe, a delay is not a problem,” said the head nurse, which must have been something Tao Zhijie had impressed upon her to relay.

The ambulance arrived back at the hospital within the anticipated time and stopped outside the inpatient department. The three of them hurriedly escorted the organ transplant cooler to the operating room on the third floor.

After changing into scrubs, Xie Wanying followed her seniors into the operating room.

It was the end of the day, and there were almost no ongoing surgeries in the operating room. This particular liver transplant operation in Hepatobiliary Surgery was special; they could only conform to the time of the organ’s arrival, and it had just started not long ago.

Whoosh, the door to the operating area slid open.

Unsurprisingly, many visiting doctors from other hospitals had come to observe and learn.

There were five doctors standing at the operating table.

The room was filled with people, but the atmosphere was exceptionally solemn, so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
