"Expert Lin, hello! I am Ge Qiuzhi, the pregnant woman whose fetus has a parasitic twin."

Lin Jie looked at this woman whose body was swollen from pregnancy-induced hypertension, her face round, and asked displeased, "Did Yan Yuesi send you?"

Ge Qiuzhi touched her not-so-big belly and shook her head, "No, it was the child inside my belly that sent me."

Hearing this, Lin Jie felt an urge to roll his eyes.

Is this a case of someone messing things up and the other person playing the pity card because she's pregnant?

But, after all, the other party is a pregnant woman, and a high-risk one at that. Despite being in a foul mood, Lin Jie, with a somewhat dark expression, carefully helped Ge Qiuzhi sit down and poured her a glass of water.

Lin Jie said bluntly, "If you are also here to have me perform one or two surgeries to prove myself, you can go back."

Ge Qiuzhi assessed Lin Jie, and praised, "Expert Lin, you are much younger and more handsome than I imagined."

Seeing Lin Jie's expression turning into the color of a pot's bottom, Ge Qiuzhi immediately got to the point, solemnly saying, "Expert Lin, I have absolute trust in your ability, with no doubts at all, please help save my child."

Lin Jie was disbelieving, teased, "That famous gynecologist, Yan Yuesi, certainly doesn't trust my medical skills."

"She is quite renowned and has a very close relationship with you."

"Are you abandoning your trust in her to trust me instead?"

Ge Qiuzhi took a sip of water, her expression helpless, "Dr. Yan is a bit overprotective of me, always thinking about being foolproof. But, there is no such thing as foolproof in this world!"

"And one more thing, Dr. Yan is very confident in her medical skills."

"More precisely, she's over-confident, somewhat conceited. What she can't do, she assumes others can't do either."

"Because of this, she is full of skepticism about your abilities, Expert Lin."

"Here, I apologize to you on her behalf."

Lin Jie waved his hand lightly and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's quite normal for my abilities to be questioned in my position. It's just Yan Yuesi's attitude that's hard to accept."

One should have the right attitude when seeking help.

Yesterday, Yan Yuesi seemed respectful, but in her heart, she placed Lin Jie below her.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have rudely demanded Lin Jie prove himself first.

Perhaps another possibility is that Yan Yuesi thinks she is indispensable, and Lin Jie, to get her to join Anlin Hospital, would meet her every demand.

Anyway, Yan Yuesi's skepticism made Lin Jie, who had been highly praised recently, feel severely underestimated, which naturally infuriated him.

Ge Qiuzhi continued, "After knowing that you and Dr. Yan fell out, I didn't communicate with her and rushed over by train overnight."

"Because I believe, Expert Lin, you absolutely have the ability to treat my child."

Lin Jie asked indifferently, "Oh, why are you so sure?"

Ge Qiuzhi put down the water cup she had been holding and said softly, "Due to the current general environment, the vast majority of doctors prefer to play it safe and usually won't take on patients they aren't confident about."

"And the fact that you're willing to take this on, Expert Lin, shows that you are confident in yourself."

"Given your past achievements, Expert Lin, I wouldn't think you're deliberately challenging the impossible just to leave a failure in your record."

"And one more thing..."

Ge Qiuzhi earnestly analyzed, "You agreed to take over to attract Dr. Yan."

"In this situation, Dr. Yan will have to work with you for a long time."

"You might keep it hidden for a while, but not forever."

"Even if the result of this surgery isn't ideal, you might cover it up with some method. If you didn't have outstanding capabilities in gynecology or pediatrics, it would be exposed sooner or later."

"By that time, Dr. Yan will surely make a scene, and neither you nor President An of Anlin Hospital would be naive enough to overlook this."

Lin Jie couldn't help but smile and nodded approvingly, "People often say pregnancy makes one dull for three years, but you are quite clear-headed."

Ge Qiuzhi sighed and said, "This isn't such complicated reasoning. Dr. Yan is just too concerned and a bit prejudiced, making her unable to see the forest for the trees."

"If she thought it through a little, she would understand."

Lin Jie scrutinized the calm Ge Qiuzhi and said, "Your thinking is very clear, but you are mistaken on one point."

"The reason I accepted this surgery is not because I have absolute confidence or meticulousness, but because it's a surgery I can do, and I am capable of doing."

"Another reason is that your case is quite rare, and taking on this surgery can further enrich my surgical experience."

"Ms. Ge, to be honest with you, the success probability of your surgery is only about thirty percent."

Saying this, Lin Jie confidently and arrogantly stated, "Even with just thirty percent, there might not be any medical expert in the country with a greater chance of success than I have."

He then shifted the topic, "But three-tenths certainty is still somewhat low. I still recommend... the best option is to terminate the pregnancy."

Ge Qiuzhi's face did not show a trace of fear. She reached out to caress her round belly, saying with deep emotion, "This is my child, a child connected to me by blood and flesh."

"A thirty percent chance is enough for a mother to take all the risks."

She looked into Lin Jie's eyes, pleading, "Expert Lin, please save my child!"

"I also believe that no medical expert in the country has more confidence in performing this surgery than you do."

"Only you can save my child, I beg you!"

Seeing her determined attitude to keep the child, Lin Jie frowned and said in a deep voice, "Ms. Ge, you need to understand that given your physical condition, if any complications occur, it could very well result in both deaths."

"Terminating the pregnancy now does not rule out the possibility of becoming pregnant again."

Ge Qiuzhi slowly shook her head, caressing her belly once more, and said lovingly, "Even though he is not yet born, he is already my child and a part of my life."

"When I sing songs to him, he'll cheerfully kick my belly."

"When I'm unhappy, he quietly listens to me vent."

"Expert Lin, how could a mother possibly kill her own child?"

Lin Jie sighed and said, "But under the current circumstances, Dr. Yan may not agree to let me perform the surgery."

"If any accident happens, it will be..."

Ge Qiuzhi smiled slightly and said, "Expert Lin, although I am with Dr. Yan, legally we have no relations, she has no right to hold me accountable."

"This time, my younger brother brought me here."

"He is my biological brother and will sign the corresponding medical liability documents."

She paused and pointed to her nose, saying, "Expert Lin, let me introduce myself again. I also work in a hospital as the Director of the Pathology Department at the Ludong Province People's Hospital."

"I'm quite capable, and if the Anlin Hospital's Pathology Department needs additional staff, I can work there. This is my promise."

"Of course, the premise for fulfilling this promise is that no accident occurs during this surgery."

Ge Qiuzhi said playfully, "I wonder if my promise can increase your confidence in success, Expert Lin?"

The Pathology Department is one of the core essential departments in a comprehensive hospital.

The primary task of this department is to conduct pathological diagnosis during the medical process.

Its main work includes examining biopsies, shedding, fine-needle aspiration cytology examinations, and autopsies to provide clear pathological diagnoses for clinical treatment, identify the nature of diseases, determine causes of death, and more.

This department requires a high level of professionalism from its staff, and the level of the department head somewhat determines the hospital's diagnostic level.

Many complex and rare conditions' pathological analyses, such as organ specimen biopsies, human tumor cell examinations, human tissue section examinations, immunological property examinations, chromosome genetics checks, and so on are handled by this department.

Without the precise support of these pathological examination data, no matter how skilled Lin Jie is, it would be difficult to diagnose many complex conditions.

The Ludong Province People's Hospital is a top-tier hospital, and being able to serve as the Director of the Pathology Department at such a comprehensive hospital is a reflection of one's competence.

Lin Jie instantly felt a sense of losing one thing and gaining another.

For Anlin Hospital, such talent is far more important than a gynecology expert.

Lin Jie could train doctors in various departments himself, but he couldn't train such medical experts and could only hire them externally.

He immediately asked, "Ms. Ge, how long does it generally take you to perform intraoperative frozen section pathological diagnosis?"

Intraoperative frozen section pathological diagnosis is arguably one of the most challenging tasks for the Pathology Department.

At this time, the patient lies on the operating table, the surgeons almost pause the operation, and the patient's family and friends wait anxiously outside the operating room.

The pathologists must slice the pathological tissues removed during surgery, analyze the cell morphology under a microscope, and make a qualitative diagnosis.

This process requires a clear diagnosis to be made within tens of minutes.

The surgeons then proceed with the next stage of the surgery based on the diagnosis provided by the Pathology Department.

For instance, if the pathological diagnosis indicates a benign lesion, the surgeon needs only to perform a local excision. If it is a malignant lesion, further extensive excision, lymph node dissection, amputation, or removal of critical organs may be needed.

Ge Qiuzhi confidently said, "For an ordinary diagnosis, results can be drawn within twenty minutes, complex ones within thirty minutes, and particularly difficult ones within fifty minutes."

"The accuracy rate is 97.8%."

Lin Jie was quite satisfied with this diagnosis time.

Because Shen Lanruo in his mind informed him that the diagnostic efficiency in some hospitals in the United States is roughly at this level.

It's just that the accuracy rate is slightly lower compared to international standards.

Considering the limitations of domestic diagnostic equipment, this accuracy rate can be considered acceptable.

Lin Jie said, "Ms. Ge, you should now go to the Binhai University Affiliated Hospital to complete the admission procedures..."
