107 A Prominence in Wood (2/2)

Huo Congjun furrowed his eyebrows and thought, 'This is the first case of nerve anastomosis in our department. It would be bad for us if she recovers badly.'

He immediately looked at the nurses around him.

Because of the pressure from Boss Huo, a nurse who originally intended to ignore Li Huamin could only go forward, and she asked kindly, ”What happened?”

”I want to be transferred to another ward,” said Li Huamin.

The nurse asked, ”Why do you want to be transferred to another ward?”

”This ward has green walls. I can't be near green things.” Even though Li Huamin's voice was still rather hoarse, she could be heard clearly.

The nurse said gently, ”Why can't you be near green things?”

”Among the five basic elements, the element of wood is more prominent in me, and this is why I can't wear green clothes. This is also why I can't stay in houses with green walls. Can you guys transfer me to another ward?” Li Huamin shifted her body in discomfort a few times and said, ”I won't be able to recover well in a room with green walls. If you guys don't transfer me to another ward, I'll definitely not be able to recover.”

The nurse was satisfied when she heard that. She rested her hands on her hips and looked at Huo Congjun. Huo Congjun was speechless. He thought that there were problems with the facilities of the ward, and was wondering if he should adjust it. Now that the patient was saying that the element of wood was prominent in her, he was immediately confused.

Ling Ran also felt slightly regretful. He sutured the patient from the beginning to the end, and thought that he might be able to get the patient's sincere gratitude. When he looked at the situation now, he had done far from enough for Li Huamin to be thankful.

”I don't care. If you guys don't transfer me to another ward, I want to be discharged. I don't want to stay in a ward with green walls,” Li Huamin shouted again, and was even trying to jump off the bed. Even though she was only putting on an act, her family members immediately started defending her.

”All the wards in our hospital have green walls,” Huo Congjun said patiently, trying to compromise and smooth things over.

”For those with prominence in wood, the color green is bad for them. You guys should repaint a few of the wards,” Li Huamin suggested.

Huo Congjun asked calmly, ”What color should we repaint the wards?”

Li Huamin immediately said, ”Pink. I want a ward with pink walls.”

”Why pink?”

”Pink is the color of money. Among the five basic elements, the element of money is the least prominent in me.”

Huo Congjun fixed his gaze on her for a few seconds. When he realized that the other party really was not joking, he was so angry that he turned and left.

The moment Huo Congjun walked out of the ward door, he said, ”Those without knowledge would think that the ulnar nerve is connected to the cranium.”

Doctor Zhou chuckled and said, ”Maybe the effects of the anesthetics have not faded yet.”

Ling Ran, on the other hand, looked as if he had just discovered a new continent. He last saw the patient when she was under anesthesia. At that time, he felt the kind of sense of achievement one had when one healed the wounded and rescued the dying, he did not expect that the patient would act this way once she woke up.

”Do an electromyography on her,” Huo Congjun said, and added, ”Analyze the recovery of her ulnar nerve, but don't let me see her in-person again.

”Alright.” Ling Ran acknowledged the order.

”You must make sure that there is a certain success rate to the nerve anastomosis you perform. When your success rate goes up, there will be no lack of patients.” Huo Congjun gave Ling Ran extra pointers because he looked forward to what Ling Ran would do with his ability to anastomose nerves.

Currently, the doctors in Yun Hua Hospital who knew how to perform nerve anastomosis mainly did it on nerve trunks such as the median nerve. Nerve trunks were not hard to repair because of their thickness. Traumas sustained over a small area were harder to repair. Cases with associated nerve damage were very hard to deal with as there were very few surgical methods that can be used.

Nevertheless, Huo Congjun reckoned that Ling Ran had at most practised nerve anastomosis in private for a period of time, and would definitely need more time and cases to elevate his skills. He was making small allowances now. As long as Ling Ran guaranteed a certain success rate, he would support Ling Ran in his endeavors.

Doctor Zhou turned his head to look at Ling Ran. He did not know whether Ling Ran understood what Huo Congjun had just said.

”The electromyogram is done. I'll bring it to you.” Ling Ran's reply was still brief.

Huo Congjun said nonchalantly, ”There's probably not much hope in Li Huamin. Remember to sort out all future perineurium anastomosis cases.”
