nInside the operating theater, a team of healthcare professionals dressed in dark blue stood around the operating table and focused on their work.
n
n
nThe surgeon kept his eyes on the patient’s wounds. “Sweat!”
n
n
nA young woman standing next to the surgeon picked up the gauze immediately and dried his sweat while avoiding his eyes!
n
n
n“Hemostatic forceps!”
n
n
n“…”
n
n
n“Gauze!”
n
n
n“…”
n
n
n“Scissors!”
n
n
n“…”
n
n
nWith a snip, the surgeon’s hands halted before he relaxed.
n
n
n“The patient’s breathing is normal, and no other complications arose!”
n
n
n“Send the patient to ICU for observation tonight. Remember to watch out for fever and record all observations carefully!”
n
n
nThe moment the surgeon finished his sentence, a few healthcare workers pushed the patient and the ventilator out of the operating theater.
n
n
nOnly the surgeon and the young woman who assisted him remained in the operating room.
n
n
nThe moment the operating room doors opened, the patient’s family members swarmed over and barraged them with endless questions:
n
n
n“Doctor, how’s my Dad?”
n
n
n“Nurse, was the operation successful?”
n
n
n“Yeah! When will Dad wake up?”
n
n
n“…”
n
n
nThe nurses stood in front of the swarm of family members and spoke in a practiced and calm tone, “Excuse me, please let us through. The surgery was successful, but we really need to bring him to ICU! I will answer all your questions in a minute!”
n
n
nAs the operating theater doors closed, the commotion disappeared eventually.
n
n
nInside the operating room…
n
n
nThe surgeon removed the blood-stained gloves and tossed them into the trashcan by the side.
n
n
n“Su Tang, you assisted well in the surgery today. I will write a report about your performance. I’m sure you will get made full-time member this month!”
n
n
nThe mask covered Su Tang’s face, so only her bright eyes could be seen as they glinted with joy.
n
n
n“Really? Thanks!”
n
n
nThe surgeon calmly nodded as he said, “Uh-huh! I have seen how hard you worked! Keep it up! The hospital will reward you well!”
n
n
nSu Tang nodded eagerly and could not contain her excitement!
n
n
n“Enough. It’s getting late. Have an early night after you clean up the operating room!”
n
n
n“Yes, I will! Goodbye!”
n
n
nAfter the surgeon left, Su Tang’s eyes beamed brightly.
n
n
nShe deftly tidied up the operating room as she checked the time to see how late it was.
n
n
nShe caught sight of something shining outside the window from the corner of her eye as she retrieved a surgery apparatus from the disinfecting cabinet. Hence, she automatically went towards the window.
n
n
nA double-glazed window was installed since they were easier to maintain, so it was bright and clean.
n
n
nSu Tang’s eyes became softer as they glinted slightly. “Is that a shooting star? It sure looks beautiful!”
n
n
nTICK TOCK, TICK TOCK!
n
n
nAll three hands on her wristwatch combined…
n
n
nSu Tang closed her eyes as she muttered softly, “I want to become rich overnight. If it can’t be done overnight, I don’t mind waiting a couple of nights!”
n
n
nA few seconds later, Su Tang opened her eyes to see the shooting star right in front of her and felt stunned.
n
n
nThe first thought that crossed her mind was whether meteorites could travel that fast.
n
n
nSu Tang watched as the dim meteorite crashed onto her swiftly.
n
n
nDo you want to know how fast the meteorite was?
n
n
nIt was so fast that Su Tang did not even have time to shut her eyes.
n
n
nDespite the closed window between them, a white light covered Su Tang. In that instant, she almost wanted to cry as a thought flashed through her mind.
n
n
nShe should never have made a wish when she saw the shooting star!
n
n
nWas it too late for her to regret it?
n
n
n…
