At nearly two in the afternoon, Lin Jie stepped out of the operating room and was surrounded by a chorus of congratulations.

Looking at Cheng Xingguang, Jiang Hao, Ren Maoshi, Lei Jun, Chen Shi, Chen Fanzhi, Lu Kaicheng, Lin Xiaoxiao's parents, and many of his students gathered around him, Lin Jie waved his hand to stop the congratulatory words.

"The successful surgery is just the first step. What matters now is the patient's recovery and subsequent performance."

Lin Jie humbly said, "It's not time to celebrate success yet; this experimental treatment requires a long period of validation."

Everyone understood, but the words of congratulation did not cease.

"A genius idea along with a good start certainly heralds a perfect outcome."

"Expert Lin, you've opened up a new avenue of treatment for us once again..."

After a lively session, everyone bade farewell and left, no longer interrupting Lin Jie's rest.

Lin Jie approached Lin Xiaoxiao's parents and said, "Currently, the patient's postoperative indicators are stable, and if no abnormal situations arise within a week, Xiaoxiao will be scheduled for surgery."

Lin Dongfeng, somewhat excited, said, "Seeing this scene, we as a couple have even more confidence in you, Expert Lin..."

After washing up in the surgical preparation room and changing his clothes, Lin Jie returned to his office to find Lin Miao placing food on the desk.

"Brother, come quickly and eat."

Lin Miao handed the chopsticks to Lin Jie and continued, "After eating, I'll give you a massage so you can rest well."

Lin Jie sat down and picked up a piece of green pepper with egg, putting it in his mouth. He praised, "Your cooking has greatly improved."

"Miaomiao, it's rare for you to have two days off, you don't need to bring food over specifically."

"I can just eat some takeout."

"Takeout isn't very sanitary; where is the homemade food flavorful and nutritious."

Lin Miao sat on a therapy chair by the desk, with her chin in her hands, saying, "Brother, yesterday Kexin said she wants to adjust my work content for me to learn finance, saying that I'll be responsible for the financial aspect of the fund in the future."

She said with a troubled face, "But brother, finance is so specialized, I know nothing."

Lin Jie took a sip of soup and advised, "It's not like she's asking you to be responsible now; she's asking you to learn first, right?"

"In the future, the charity fund will grow bigger and bigger, and if you're in charge of this aspect, Kexin will be very at ease."

Lin Miao nodded and said, "That's what Kexin said too."

"After working for these months, I've increasingly realized how limited an individual's power is. Only by making the charity fund bigger and stronger can we help more people."

"But I'm afraid that I won't do well. If I make a mistake, it could cost the fund a lot of money."

Lin Jie picked up a piece of beef and stuffed it into Lin Miao's mouth, encouragingly saying, "Don't worry about not doing well."

"Who are you? You're my sister, Lin Jie. You're smart, just delayed by a lot of time!"

"If you apply yourself to learning for two or three years, it definitely won't be a problem."

He continued boldly, "Moreover, with Kexin and my support, even if you poke a hole in the sky, your brother can patch it up for you."

"Big talk, bragging!"

Lin Miao chuckled and said, "Kexin also said that once I'm proficient in financial management, I'll handle the household accounts."

"You won't be allowed to waste money recklessly in the future!"

Lin Jie pouted and said, "When have I ever wasted money recklessly..."

After the meal, Lin Jie relaxed for a bit, lying on the sofa as Lin Miao started massaging his arms, shoulders, and waist!

"Brother, must you stay at the hospital? It's so much better to rest at home!"

Lin Jie lazily replied, "These postoperative twenty-four hours are very critical."

"I've already instructed several students to take turns keeping watch without a moment's pause."

"But if a real problem arises, they wouldn't be able to handle it. I still need to be present to deal with it."

He moaned comfortably and continued, "After these twenty-four hours, a daily comprehensive physiological and psychological examination is required."

"This experimental treatment performed in the brain cannot tolerate any neglect."

Lin Miao uttered an "Oh" and muttered, "I didn't realize it was so complicated; I thought that once the surgery was done, everything would be solved."

Lin Jie chuckled and said, "We're far from a complete solution."

"Patients need to be closely observed in the hospital for at least a month before discharge."

"After discharge, monthly check-ups are still needed."

"After a year, quarterly check-ups can be done."

"In three to five years, depending on the actual situation, check-ups can be done every six months or annually."

"This is considered a long-term tracking research project..."

At this moment, Lin Jie's phone on the desk rang, and Lin Miao quickly ran over to grab it.

"It's a call from someone named Xiang Rong."

Lin Jie answered the call, and Xiang Rong's cheerful voice came through, "Expert Lin, congratulations on completing another pioneering surgery."

"Let me tell you some good news."

Xiang Rong excitedly said, "Your innovative paper on using the diaphragm to create a vaginal passage has been published for only three days, and the English version's search and download volume has already exceeded a thousand."

"This has broken a record for our journal, it's the fastest to reach a thousand downloads."

Only a thousand downloads in three days!

Lin Jie couldn't help but silently criticize; the international academic influence of this "Clinical Medicine" journal is indeed limited.

He chuckled and echoed, "I didn't expect it to receive such attention. Several cosmetic surgeons have already contacted the hospital to request a stint of study in the plastic surgery department."

Xiang Rong enthusiastically suggested, "Perhaps we could hold a seminar?"

Without seeing Lin Jie's enthusiastic response, he immediately changed the topic and asked, "Expert Lin, the last time you asked me to inquire about the high precision CT scanner, it really wasn't for a new research project?"

"No, it's purely for a patient's condition!"

With anticipation, Lin Jie asked, "Editor Xiang, do you have any news?"

"From what I've gathered, apart from Kangning Hospital, other top-tier hospitals and tertiary hospitals don't have such precision equipment yet."

Pausing slightly, Xiang Rong cautiously asked, "Expert Lin, Kangning Hospital contacted me and said they could provide this equipment for free..."

Lin Jie interrupted him, saying, "Thank you, Editor Xiang, for your efforts. If I can't find this equipment, I can opt not to take on this patient."

On the phone, Xiang Rong sighed slightly and didn't bring up the matter again.

The two chatted a few more words about the special edition before ending the call.

At 3:30 PM, the young patient Lahar awoke from anesthesia.

Lin Jie personally conducted the postoperative damage assessment for him.

The test results were very satisfactory to him; no obvious postoperative damage was found, and Lahar's cognitive, comprehension, and memory abilities showed no abnormalities.

Before leaving, he carefully instructed Huo Guangheng to closely monitor Lahar's emotional changes and physiological metrics, promptly reporting any anomalies.

Upon returning to the office again, Lin Jie found an acquaintance standing in front of the office waiting for him.

Nie Yuming.

Inviting him into the office to sit down, he heard Nie Yuming say politely, "Expert Lin, I've come mainly for two matters, one is related to Qiao Hongzhen."

"From my investigation over the past few days, Qiao Hongzhen indeed said some hateful, vengeful words against you, Expert Lin."

"Young Master Ye asked me to convey his apologies; this matter wasn't handled well by him, causing you to worry."

Lin Jie wasn't concerned about this and asked, "Young Master Nie, did you find out if Qiao Hongzhen had orchestrated any specific revenge plan?"

Nie Yuming shook his head, saying, "In this respect, I haven't discovered anything yet."

"Also, Qiao Hongzhen is currently not in the country, but went to Australia; his wife and child are Australian citizens."

"Expert Lin, rest assured, when Qiao Hongzhen returns to the country, I will make sure he has a clear explanation of the matter."

"Thank you, Young Master Ye, and you for your concern!" Lin Jie said politely.

With some remorse, Nie Yuming said, "Actually, this matter should be blamed on me. At that time, it wasn't handled properly, unexpectedly prompting Qiao Hongzhen to harbor malicious intent."

In a somewhat grim tone, he said, "In the future, such oversights won't happen again."

Nie Yuming took out his phone from his pocket, accessed a photo, and showed it to Lin Jie, saying, "Expert Lin, Young Master Ye also mentioned, this person will accompany you in the future."

"He can drive for you, handle some miscellaneous matters, and also solve some troublesome issues for you."

The person in the photo was with a crew cut, in his late twenties, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a face exuding masculine vigor.

Instinctively, Lin Jie refused, "Thanks for Young Master Ye's kind intentions. Actually, I already have a bodyguard and driver, so I don't need additional protection."

Nie Yuming laughed and said, "We know that person is Qin Gang, a former special forces soldier."

"But now he's busy with his wedding, so he likely can't always be by your side?"

"With another person, the two can take turns resting, allowing someone to always be by your side, and won't leave any chances for others."

That day, discussing personal safety with An Weize and An Kexin, the issue of bodyguards was also brought up.

An Kexin had considerable opinions on Qin Gang's frequent absence, and also mentioned wanting to find another reliable and somewhat skilled bodyguard.

It's just that such personnel are hard to find.

Now, someone is proactively sent over...

After thinking it over, Lin Jie decided not to be pretentious and accepted this person.

"Young Master Nie, the second matter you mentioned, should be regarding the injured football players?"

Nie Yuming nodded and said, "Yes, a total of three people. Their issues have been completely resolved."

"Expert Lin, what is your schedule..."

Having already made plans, Lin Jie directly said, "Starting next week, send one person over each week!"

Nie Yuming got up, gladly saying, "Understood, at that time, the translator, caregivers, and nurses will all be arranged."

After seeing off Nie Yuming, Lin Jie soon received a call from Zhang Xiaoxiao.

"A-Jie, that annoying Jin Lechen from Yuerong Plastic Surgery Hospital called again."

"However, this time he's not talking about inviting you to work part-time, but about a high precision CT scanner."

"I know this matter is quite important to you, A-Jie, should we contact him again?"
