"What?"
"You're actually asking me to make sounds during the surgery, how is that possible?"
After listening to Lin Jie's explanation of the surgical plan, Du Feixue couldn't help but shout again!
Not only her, but Luo Shanshan and Yang Jinglong, who heard the plan for the first time, also couldn't hide their astonishment!
Lin Jie just widened his eyes and said sternly, "Are you the doctor, or am I the doctor? If I say it's possible, it is!"
He paused for a moment and explained, "You will only undergo local anesthesia for the throat, so your consciousness will remain clear, and it won't affect your control of the exhalation of lung airflow."
"I'm not asking you to speak; you just need to occasionally make sounds like 'ah...ah...'"
He further explained, "Your vocal cords are naturally thick, which is the main reason for your hoarse and deep voice. Changing the timbre requires thinning and trimming the vocal cords, which is a very delicate surgical process!"
"Originally, I could perform this surgery with you under general anesthesia based on my experience!"
"But in this case, I can only guarantee some improvement in your voice quality, but to what extent, it's hard to say!"
"If during the surgery, I can make minute adjustments based on your phonation while you are conscious, I can optimize your voice to the greatest extent."
Lin Jie said calmly, "The half-million you paid me won't be in vain! Of course, if you're scared and choose general anesthesia, that's up to you too!"
This somewhat daunting surgery introduction, instead, gave Du Feixue great confidence; for the first time, she felt that her dream might really come true this time.
Without much thought, she directly said, "I choose local anesthesia!"
"Wise choice!"
Lin Jie nodded gently, then continued, "Dr. Yang, Zhu Qiang, you're responsible for Du Feixue's preoperative examination, preparation, and anesthesia. Dr. Luo, let's scrub and disinfect."
Everyone prepared separately!
In the handwashing and disinfection room on the side of the operating room, Lin Jie and Luo Shanshan each picked up a small brush with hard bristles, scrubbing their fingers and nail crevices vigorously.
"Lin Jie, are you confident about this surgery?"
From the looks of it, Du Feixue is not an easy person, Luo Shanshan was still a bit worried, after all, performing surgery here is quite illegal.
Lin Jie, however, said indifferently, "How much worse can it get?"
"You've heard her voice too; it's like a middle-aged uncle in his forties or fifties talking. A slight repair can make her voice sound ten or twenty years younger."
Seeing Lin Jie speak so lightly, Luo Shanshan couldn't help but not feel entirely happy.
If the surgery were as easy as Lin Jie says, given Du Feixue's family's financial situation, she wouldn't have endured such a voice for so many years.
"Hey, your main task is to timely suction out the oozing blood to prevent it from entering the trachea!"
Luo Shanshan nodded heavily. As a surgeon, she naturally understood the focal point of her job!
Once the two were ready, they entered the operating room, where Du Feixue was already secured on the operating table. To reduce her anxiety, An Kexin was allowed to stay in the operating room with her!
Yang Jinglong reported, "Dr. Lin, anesthesia has already been administered, effective for two hours. Should we inject muscle relaxants?"
Lin Jie shook his head and instructed, "Use the smallest size support laryngoscope and remove her chin!"
He pulled a specialized microscope in front of him, looked at the slightly panicked Du Feixue, and frightened her, "Du Feixue, this is an extremely fine surgery; if your body moves and causes the throat to become unstable, surgical failure would be your own fault!"
After these words, he took the laryngeal microsurgery knife from Luo Shanshan's hand and said solemnly, "Start the surgery timer!"
Following the experience lodged in his memory, Lin Jie first cut out a piece of flesh the size of a melon seed shell, as thin as a cicada's wing, from the left vocal cord of Du Feixue, and then said, "Du Feixue, say 'ah' for me to hear!"
Due to the effect of the anesthetic, Du Feixue had no sensation in the throat, but her chin felt sore and uncomfortable, and her trachea and chest were also quite uncomfortable.
Upon hearing Lin Jie's command, she hurriedly compressed the chest air, according to her previous memory, and shouted, "Ah..."
Lin Jie made another cut, "Scream again!"
"Ah..."
"Yell again!"
"Ah..."
"Make a more seductive sound!"
"Make a sound filled with affection!"
"Make a sound full of love!"
One "ah" after another occasionally reverberated in the operating room, transitioning from the initial deep hoarseness to gradually becoming resonant and clear...
More than an hour had already passed, and with the diffusion of the anesthetic, the somewhat dizzy Du Feixue had lost count of how many times she had cried out "ah".
She just reflexively, upon the tail end of Lin Jie's "shouting" from his side, took a deep breath and shouted!
"Ah..."
This crisp sound, clear as a nightingale, awakened Du Feixue from her daze!
Is this my own voice?
It was as ethereal and distant as it was at the end of the sky, yet as distinct as a whisper beside her ears, so unreal, distant and near, as if in a dream!
Yes, it's like dreaming!
Only in dreams would Du Feixue hear her voice so perfect!
Am I not in surgery? How could I be dreaming?!
Realizing this, Du Feixue suddenly opened her eyes and saw the surrounding white walls and the familiar face of An Kexin.
Except, her eyes were red, as if she had been crying!
Could it be the surgery failed?
Du Feixue's heart skipped in shock, and she wished to sit up, but the sharp throat pain made her break out in a cold sweat!
An Kexin hurriedly pressed her down, anxiously saying, "The surgery is over; you blacked out at the final stage of the operation. Lin Jie said you can't speak now, and you need to rest for a week!"
"I know what you want to know; wait a moment!"
An Kexin brought over a tablet and opened a file!
"Scream again!"
"Ah..."
"Yell again!"
"Ah..."
"Make a more seductive sound!"
"Ah..."
......
This monotonous dialogue, to Du Feixue, was the most beautiful symphony in the world.
Especially when she heard the last "ah", it was so crisp, so pleasing, like a nightingale singing!
This is the voice from the dream, the voice she longed for!!
Du Feixue's eyes stared straight at An Kexin; she eagerly wanted a certain answer: Is this really the sound from her own throat?
An Kexin used a tissue to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes and nodded, "Aside from Lin Jie's voice in this file, it's your own voice! It's what you shouted yourself!"
"Lin Jie said this is the voice made under the surgical state, and ultimately your voice will have some differences from this, but the differences won't be too big."
An Kexin smiled and said, "He said he could at least guarantee that your voice won't have others mistaking you for a middle-aged man anymore."
"Fei Xue, you won't need to suppress your joyous moans in love anymore!"
