Episode 16 recap: The medical staff at Puyun Hospital made every effort to rescue the injured. Chen Hui is expected to return to surgery as a doctor.
The doctors and nurses from the surgery department gathered at Liu Zhen Wei and Ma Lan's home to have hot pot, as they were bidding farewell to Wang Kai. Chen Hui was also invited, but He Tong had to stay at the hospital for duty and couldn't join them. During the meal, Wang Kai prepared gifts for everyone. When talking about the hospital and colleagues, Wang Kai became emotional and tears welled up in his eyes. Everyone was also moved. Wang Kai has now joined a pharmaceutical company. Liu Zhen Wei jokingly remarked that it felt like a farewell to a deceased person. Wang Kai drank a lot of alcohol and urged everyone to persevere. He specially arranged for Chen Hui to take over his shift and take care of Liu Zhen Wei.
Chen Hui said that he is no longer a doctor. Wang Kai told Chen Hui that he always will be, whether he wears a white coat or not, he is still a surgeon. To lighten the mood, Wang Kai asked Yuan Ye if he liked Chen Hui or He Tong more. Yuan Ye laughed it off and changed the topic. Ma Lan also teased Chen Hui, asking if he liked Yuan Ye or Ke Ai more. Chen Hui cleverly replied that he liked Director Ma. This caused everyone to burst into laughter, and the atmosphere at the dinner table instantly became lively. At that moment, He Tong called from the hospital and said that there was a series of traffic accidents on the Puning Expressway, and a large number of injured patients were being brought to the hospital. Upon hearing this, Liu Zhen Wei hurriedly took his team and left. Chen Hui and Wang Kai felt somewhat awkward. Liu Zhen Wei asked Wang Kai to stay and tidy up the room while taking Chen Hui to help.
At this point, Puyun Hospital was already in a state of emergency. Director Pan had been waiting in the lobby, and all the doctors and nurses from various departments were urgently gathered there, awaiting the arrival of the ambulances. Liu Zhen Wei arrived with his team, and He Tong had already prepared white coats for everyone. Professor Ding also arrived with his assistant, requesting to participate in the rescue mission. Director Pan briefly explained the emergency task to everyone: a collision between a truck and a bus had resulted in a major accident, with five fatalities, 34 minor injuries, and 18 serious injuries. Puyun Hospital received 10 of the seriously injured patients and 15 of the minor injuries. He hoped that everyone would overcome the difficulties, uphold the spirit of saving lives, and do their utmost to save lives as they fought this challenging battle.
The ambulances roared in, and all the medical staff were engaged in intense rescue work. Chen Hui discovered a little girl with a steel bar piercing through her chest and was reminded of his sister once again. He volunteered to take on the patient. Liu Zhen Wei hesitated for a moment, but Professor Ding quickly came over and assured that he would keep an eye on Chen Hui.
One of the patients under Yuan Ye's care was in critical condition. Due to excessive blood loss, their blood pressure kept dropping, and immediate surgery was necessary. However, the lead surgeon was overwhelmed and couldn't handle it. Liu Zhen Wei ordered Yuan Ye to step in. Yuan Ye had never been a lead surgeon before and lacked confidence. Just then, Wang Kai rushed over and offered to assist Yuan Ye.
Professor Ding served as Chen Hui's assistant and watched him perform the surgery methodically. He looked at Chen Hui with approving eyes. Zhang Ming observed and raised concerns to Director Pan about Chen Hui's qualifications for performing the surgery. Director Pan responded sharply, saying it was inappropriate to bring up such matters now. Couldn't Zhang Ming see that they were in the middle of saving a patient? Under Wang Kai's guidance, Yuan Ye's surgery was successful. She expressed gratitude to Wang Kai, who didn't want to be called a mentor. However, Yuan Ye insisted that once someone teaches you, they become like a father figure for life.
Chen Hui finally located the exact position where the steel bar was diagonally lodged inside the girl's body. After taking all necessary precautions, he prepared to remove the steel bar. However, Chen Hui hesitated. He had performed countless surgeries on his sister in his mind, but none of them had been successful. In his moment of hesitation, he saw his childhood self walking towards him, encouraging him to be brave.
Chen Hui took a deep breath and slowly and steadily removed the steel bar piercing through the girl's body. Everything went smoothly, and the surgery was successful. Chen Hui skillfully sutured the wound, and Professor Ding sincerely praised him as his best student. Chen Hui returned to the department and found that the surgeons and nurses were exhausted, lying or sitting in various postures, sound asleep. Chen Hui covered Yuan Ye and Ke Ai with blankets, waking them up. Both of them wanted Chen Hui to stay. Ke Ai resorted to the previous method, asking the moon for help to fulfill this wish. In their hallucination, they actually saw the sea.
Just then, Liu Zhen Wei came and called out Chen Hui. He told him that Professor Ding invited him to participate in Yuan Ye's surgery and was willing to write a statement clarifying that Chen Hui did not plagiarize any papers. Chen Hui could come back immediately. Everyone was particularly delighted upon hearing this news.
