Chapter 785: Chapter 703: You are Just a Rough Draft Now

Over two weeks, Ivan had seen twelve patients. For the remaining two weeks, Ivan stopped making periodical visits and turned to operating on these twelve patients.

The queue numbers for these twelve slots reportedly caused an uproar in the millions, but they were priceless.

A queue number in the millions, such an event had never before occurred in the history of ticket-touting.

However, the ticket touts who could handle this kind of situation were not the usual groups. The small-scale touts simply couldn’t take on this type of business; forcibly trying to would only get their teeth knocked out.

In the end, ordinary people absolutely couldn’t get these slots, even if an ordinary person were able to seize a slot, they couldn’t retain it for long.

Teacher Sun had undergone surgery for twelve days already.

Ivan decided to personally remove the pressure dressings and bandages. The ward was packed with people, three layers deep inside and outside. Director Lan arrived with a camera crew, waiting in the wings to take photos and record videos at any moment.

Of course, at such a crucial time, how could Director Lan miss out? He volunteered to assist Ivan in removing the bandages.

Firstly, they had to cut and remove the sutures, there were over a thousand sutures across his body, removing them required great patience.

Ivan carefully unwrapped the gauze, avoiding any abrupt movements that might tear off the skin grafts. Therefore, he unwrapped a little, observed for a while, and then continued to unwrap.

Those surrounding them held their breath; as the bandages were removed, Teacher Sun’s entire body gradually emerged, especially when his face was revealed at the end.

The people around were wide-eyed at the sight of his completely different face. His skin was slightly hollow in places due to compression, and he temporarily lacked eyebrows. But except for these things, his face bore no significant differences from a normal one. Compared to Teacher Sun’s previous scarred and deformed face, it was far more attractive. With time, as the skin naturally fills out, along with the growth of eyebrows and eyelashes, his face would return to normal.

"Help him sit up!"

Ivan and Director Lan helped Teacher Sun sit up with everyone’s assistance.

Since Teacher Sun had been bedridden for twelve days, suddenly getting up could cause dizziness due to postural hypotension. Therefore, they let him sit for a while to adapt.

Perhaps out of anticipation, or due to excitement, Teacher Sun disregarded his dizziness.

"I’m okay, quickly help me up, the mirror, let me see the mirror."

There was a mirror in the bathroom. Everyone helped him into the bathroom slowly. He saw his new self in the mirror, his completely unfamiliar face.

Is this really me?

Apart from the lack of eyebrows and eyelashes and the hollow areas where the skin had been compressed, he was almost perfectly normal. At this point, Teacher Sun was already very satisfied. He could now go out normally.

"Can I touch it?"

Teacher Sun was beyond excited.

Director Lan told him, "Yes, but don’t rub or scratch your skin, it’s not fully stable yet."

Teacher Sun’s trembling hand gently touched his face, unable to hold back tears. For so many years, he was afraid to go out, and even when he did, he hid his face with utmost care, fearing even to see his own face.

"This is just the beginning. We still have to give you eyebrows and eyelashes, replace the skin on your scalp, and even give you a nice head of hair. After that, your face will be completely normal. This is still the first phase of the surgery, and it’s far from our anticipated goal."

Even better looking afterward? Teacher Sun couldn’t even imagine it.

Only having heard that Ivan was a world-class plastic surgery specialist before, he didn’t really feel anything. But seeing his own face now, he was finally experiencing firsthand what world-class plastic surgery meant.

Due to his sudden adaptation to standing up and his excitement, Teacher Sun’s legs quivered. He walked over and sat down by the bed.

Looking closely at his own hands and feet, they’re all covered with healthy skin. Some of his fingers, however, were in a state of contraction due to being immobile for a long period of time, leading to tendon contractures that had to be cut. During the second phase of the surgery, he would require a tendon transfer to restore the normal functioning of his hands.

Looking at the scars on his body, all of them had been replaced with healthy skin.

"Don’t get excited, you’re just a rough work at the moment. The good stuff comes later when Dr. Ivan turns you into a handsome man," Yang Ping teased Teacher Sun.

"The rough work is already good enough!" exclaimed Teacher Sun with some confusion.

Director Lan and Director Chi were astonished by the postoperative effect. Even in its current rough state, it far surpassed the ultimate result of similar surgeries in their field.

Especially the face, which was perfectly formed in one go, showed almost no signs of flaws.

It was only twelve days post-operation and the subcutaneous fat had not yet normalized, making the skin appear less plump. But in a month, once the subcutaneous fat filled in, the face would look full. After adding eyebrows, eyelashes, replacing the scalp, and having nice hair, a handsome face would emerge. The final step of facial muscle training would ensure natural facial expressions without stiffness.

The surrounding doctors, whether senior or young, were all astonished. Top world-class technology was right before their eyes, leaving them wildly amazed.

"Dean Xia is looking for you!"

Song Zimo whispered in Yang Ping’s ear.

He quietly left the ward as there was nothing to do there for now. Currently, if Dean Xia had any matter, he wouldn’t notify Yang Ping to come to his office, he would either call or come directly.

When Yang Ping returned to the doctors’ office, Dean Xia was already there, chatting with Director Zhao of the medical department.

"Professor Yang, let’s have a chat in your office," said Dean Xia as soon as Yang Ping entered, getting up without any pretense.

Yang Ping opened his office and invited the two leaders to sit down.

"Professor Yang, there’s a problem!" Dean Xia got straight to the point, then signaled Director Zhao to speak.

Director Zhao coughed a few times and said, "A notice was issued stating that Dr. Ivan has been practicing medicine illegally at Sanbo Hospital. As a foreigner, Ivan hadn’t obtained any practice licenses, but he was conducting outpatient services, and performing surgeries at Sanbo. Many people have reported it, and we’ve been ordered to self-inspect and rectify the situation. Soon, an investigation team from above will arrive at our hospital."

"I’m sorry, Professor Yang. This is a minor issue, and I can handle it. I just need some time," Dean Xia said apologetically.

"I’m thinking, there are only two possible reasons for this. We may have given out too few numbers, causing many people who didn’t get a slot to report it out of jealousy, making it so that nobody can get surgery from Ivan. The second possibility is maybe someone from above asked Dean Xia for a number but was rejected. Now, they are holding a grudge and are causing trouble. I’m just guessing, the first possibility is most likely," Director Zhao shared his views.

Dean Xia straightened out his dense hair and said, "When foreign experts come for academic exchanges, sometimes, they might not go through the necessary procedures and would help with outpatient services or even give instructions during surgeries. The management in this regard isn’t clear, many people prefer to take a shortcut, letting local doctors undertake the responsibility and nominally act as the chief surgeon while foreign experts practically control the operation. All of us know the level of the experts we invite hence there’s usually no problem. But if scrutinized, it is indeed a violation of the rules and law. No one usually looks into it but now that someone reported it, no matter what the reason is, we definitely have to stop the surgeries and participate in the investigation. There’s no choice."

Now, even Xia Changjiang was helpless. He already planned to go to the provincial leaders for understanding.

"No problem, I’ll go and talk with Ivan. We won’t have any issues here and will cooperate with the investigation," said Yang Ping sincerely. He didn’t want to trouble the leaders.

"I’m sorry. This happened because of my error," Dean Xia said with great shame.

Yang Ping took it lightly, saying it was no big deal. "We always act like this, so we didn’t pay much attention. Now that someone reported it and there’s an investigation, we’ll cooperate."

"I heard that the surgery needs to be done in stages and only the first stage was completed. What should we do?" asked Director Zhao worriedly.

Yang Ping thought for a moment, "You guys don’t need to worry about this, I have a plan, and will arrange it well."

If worst comes to worst, he would go on stage himself and finish the rest of the surgeries. But before that, he would need to have a serious discussion with Ivan to incorporate his experience. Even though he had practiced many plastic surgeries in the system operation room, he had self-studied based on theory. As Ivan, a world-class plastic surgery expert, definitely had unique insights.

"Then we’ll leave it at that. If there are any changes, we’ll keep each other updated?" Dean Xia, who was in a hurry, was about to leave with Director Zhao.

This sudden incident indeed left Dean Xia in an awkward position.
