Although he had been full of confidence when he promised Song Xuan earlier, Doctor Song was all too aware of the limits of his own medical skills.
Looking at the situation now, it was clear this would become the Waterloo of his lengthy medical career.
Despite such concerns, Doctor Song ultimately decided to complete the surgery.
After all, Waterloo was merely a comparative notion—his skills during his school days were far inferior to his junior sister's, so such an outcome was hardly surprising.
Having steeled himself to finish the operation, Doctor Song hurried back to his office after telling Cai Xun that everything was fine.
As soon as he entered, Doctor Song collapsed to the ground.
"Thank goodness the operation is at least done…"
Even after the procedure, Doctor Song was acutely aware that, in the eyes of the patient, this surgery was destined to be deemed a failure.
