Lin Jie arrived at the Binhai University Affiliated Hospital, and it was already a quarter past ten in the morning.

Upon reaching the ophthalmology area of the hospital, Lin Jie immediately spotted Chen Shi and Tan Wenlan sitting in the resting area outside the examination room.

He noticed that Chen Shi's expression was somewhat grim, without a trace of happiness.

Could it be that the examination results were not ideal? Puzzled, Lin Jie walked over.

Upon seeing Lin Jie, Tan Wenlan immediately stood up, stepped forward with an embarrassed look, and softly explained, "Lin Jie, hello! I'm really sorry, my brother is anxious about the child's injury and has been contacting specialist doctors everywhere."

"He reached out to Dr. Wang Feizhang through an old classmate. Right now, Dr. Wang is conducting a detailed examination on my nephew in the examination room."

"Dr. Wang Feizhang?"

Lin Jie had no impression of this name and looked at Chen Shi, who was slowly getting up.

"He is the director of Binhai City Huiming Eye Hospital and was previously the ophthalmology director here. Later, he resigned and opened a specialized hospital." Chen Shi unwillingly introduced.

Just from this introduction's tone, Lin Jie could tell that Chen Shi didn't get along well with Dr. Wang Feizhang.

This Dr. Wang once held the position of ophthalmology director at the Affiliated Hospital, so his medical skills are naturally competent.

Lin Jie suppressed the discomfort in his heart, forced a smile, and seemingly carelessly said, "Dr. Tan, with Dr. Wang here, I suppose there's no need for me now."

He looked at Chen Shi and tentatively asked: "Professor Chen, then shall we..."

Tan Wenlan, naturally noticing Lin Jie's discontent, bent forward and pleaded: "Lin Jie, Lin Jie, it is our fault for reaching out to other doctors everywhere. Please empathize with my brother's feelings and don't leave..."

The saying goes that excessive concern leads to confusion; at this moment, Tan Wenlan showed not a trace of the poise of a psychological expert who controls people's hearts and the situation, just a worried family member concerned for a relative.

Seeing her like this, Chen Shi sighed with some compassion and spoke, "Lin Jie, this Wang Feizhang has some skills, but that's about it."

"It's just that in recent years, through various advertisements, he's been exaggerated to no bounds, leading many uninformed ophthalmology patients to believe he's the top in the country's ophthalmology."

"Lin Jie, let's wait and see. Maybe he won't be able to handle it. Besides, it saves you the trouble of doing the examination."

Seeing that Chen Shi had said so, Lin Jie had no choice but to stay under Tan Wenlan's profuse thanks.

He sat next to Chen Shi and asked, "How are the results of the cranial magnetic resonance examination?"

Chen Shi replied, "I looked at it carefully; there are no signs of damage in the visual areas of the injured person's brain."

Lin Jie felt slightly relieved.

That was somewhat good news; the brain, being the most complex organ of the human body, still has many injuries that remain the forbidden zone for surgeons, relying only on the slow recovery through the body's self-healing.

The three of them waited for about half an hour, during which an elderly man with a large nose walked out of the ophthalmology examination room, flanked by several young doctors, advancing with great strides.

Tan Wenlan hurriedly ran to greet him, anxiously asking, "Dr. Wang, how is my nephew's condition? Is there hope for regaining his sight?"

Wang Feizhang solemnly spoke, "After conducting a series of tests with optical probes for meticulous light stimulus checks, I can conclude that the connection of the optic nerve in the right eye is interrupted at the interbrain."

"This position..."

He slowly shook his head, sympathetically saying, "Dr. Tan, I'm very sorry; I am powerless with this injury."

"Perhaps try injecting some more nerve-nourishing agents; maybe a miracle will happen!"

Momentarily stunned, Tan Wenlan muttered: "He's only eighteen; his left eye had to be removed after it exploded, and now his right eye can't see either. Is he destined to live in darkness for the rest of his life?"

Lin Jie also heard Wang Feizhang's words.

Seeing Tan Wenlan heartbroken and upset, all Lin Jie could offer was sympathy. He, too, was powerless against such an injury.

Walking past Tan Wenlan, Wang Feizhang approached Chen Shi, laughing, "Old Chen, I heard your son finally returned to the country; congratulations! Just remind your precious son not to bother my daughter anymore."

"My daughter, along with her family of three, is enjoying a very happy life now and doesn't want any unpleasantness arising from past incidents."

Chen Shi's face turned darker than a pot bottom, gritting his teeth, saying, "I will warn him."

This content was rich, and the gossip-loving side of Lin Jie flared up, planning to ask An Kexin about it later.

Wang Feizhang turned his gaze to Lin Jie, approvingly saying, "I know you!"

"Young man, you are really outstanding, even making me amazed. But extraordinary talent represents merely a possibility, not a certainty of achievement, or else we wouldn't have cases like the untimely demise of gifted children."

"Young man, never forget diligence and perseverance!"

What Dr. Wang said was undeniably true, and Lin Jie had to humbly accept, "Thank you for the guidance! I won't forget to work hard."

Wang Feizhang then turned back to Chen Shi and said, "Old Chen, honestly, I truly envy you!"

"In your old age, you found a priceless gem. As long as he follows the proper path of growth, when he speaks at various future conferences, the first person he will thank will be you."

"Finally, you are about to gain fame."

This seemingly perfect comment actually carried the implication of mocking Chen Shi's lack of achievements.

Chen Shi's eyes narrowed as he countered, "No matter what, Lin Jie is still my student. Whatever gratitude he shows, I can handle it."

"Unlike some people who spend money everywhere, pay people to write promotional articles, boast about themselves, and end up not knowing their own weight or worth."

Surprisingly, Wang Feizhang wasn't angry. He laughed heartily and said, "Shame on me, shame on me. It's just business tactics, nothing can be done! Old Chen, Lin Jie, goodbye."

After saying this, he waved his hand and turned to leave.

Standing to the side, Tan Wenlan, who had regained some spirit, asked with a glimmer of hope, "Lin Jie, do you have any treatment methods? He's only eighteen, with his left eye gone and the right one blind."

"This isn't congenital blindness. This sudden bilateral blindness is unbearable for him."

Lin Jie shook his head and said, "Dr. Tan, although I sympathize greatly, in this case, I can't help..."

Suddenly, his mind sparked with a possibility. He immediately turned and called after Wang Feizhang and his team, who were about to enter the elevator, "Dr. Wang, please wait!"

Wang Feizhang stopped, turned around, and waited for Lin Jie to approach, then asked softly, "Lin Jie, what is it?"

Lin Jie asked urgently, "Dr. Wang, I want to know if you've conducted an optic nerve examination on the injured person's left eye?"

Wang Feizhang frowned and said, "His left eye has already been removed. There's no need to examine the optic nerve anymore!"

Lin Jie mused, "If his left eye's optic nerve is intact, maybe we could try another treatment plan..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Feizhang's eyes lit up and he exclaimed, "Are you suggesting... an eye transplant?"

Without waiting for Lin Jie's response, Wang Feizhang sprinted towards the examination room!

He was gone for nearly an hour!

In Tan Wenlan's anxious wait, the door to the examination room reopened.

The group that emerged included not only Wang Feizhang and a few young doctors following him, but also an injured person seated in a wheelchair, with bandages around their body, head, and eyes.

A haggard-looking middle-aged man was pushing the wheelchair.

Additionally, accompanying Wang Feizhang was a doctor in his prime wearing a University Affiliated Hospital doctor's uniform.

Radiating excitement, Wang Feizhang said, "Dr. Tan, Old Chen, Lin Jie, after detailed examination, the injured person's left eye's optic nerve is intact. Under these circumstances, we can attempt a highly risky treatment plan to transplant the injured person's right eye to the left eye!"

"I'm now taking the injured person to Huiming Eye Hospital to prepare for this unprecedented surgery!"

"What?"

Chen Shi was immediately furious, shouting, "He's a patient of the Affiliated Hospital. This surgical concept was also proposed by Lin Jie. How can you shamelessly steal the patient?"

Wang Feizhang shrugged, spread his hands, and said with a gentle smile, "If Director Liang believes that the Affiliated Hospital's ophthalmology department is capable of performing this eye transplant surgery, I won't say another word and will leave immediately!"

Despite its small size, the eye is an extremely precise and complex organ.

The optic nerve is extremely dense. If the rear section is severed, it's nearly impossible to reconnect. Only if the front end is clearly visible with fine nerve branches can it possibly be reattached, and even then, it's exceptionally difficult.

Moreover, the blood vessels to be reconnected in the eye are very tiny, making suturing challenging.

The only good news is that this surgery doesn't need to consider issues like rejection reactions.

Overall, it's an extremely challenging surgery, and Lin Jie estimated his own chance of success at only twenty to thirty percent.

The named prime-aged doctor, Director Liang, regretfully said, "Professor Chen, at present, our ophthalmology department doesn't have that capability."

"This… this…"

Chen Shi was anxious but helpless. Lin Jie's skill wasn't something that could be openly declared. He looked at Tan Wenlan and said, "You're the patient's family. Ultimately, it's your decision to make!"

Before Tan Wenlan could speak, the middle-aged man pushing the patient spoke, "I'm the child's father. I have the most say. Dr. Wang's surgical plan, though very dangerous, with a low success rate, is the only hope for the child's recovery."

"Therefore, we've decided to go to Huiming Eye Hospital for this surgery."

Tan Wenlan opened her mouth, but in the end, didn't say anything, only offering an apologetic look at Lin Jie and Chen Shi.

Chen Shi wanted to speak but was stopped by Lin Jie pulling on his sleeve, forcing him into silence.

Once Wang Feizhang and the group left with the patient, Chen Shi couldn't hold back his anger any longer and erupted, "Despicable! Despicable! It's infuriating!"

Lin Jie chuckled lightly and said, "What's there to be angry about? You should be happy instead!"

"This time, you've repaid Dr. Tan's favor. As for this eye transplant surgery, I'll tell you the truth—I at most have a ten to twenty percent chance of success."

"If Dr. Wang fails, it's nothing; if I fail, the consequences are unpredictable!"

Chen Shi thought about it and agreed, but he still couldn't help asking, "This surgery is a rare challenge opportunity. Are you really willing to let it go?"

Lin Jie was silent for a while, then said, "What can I do if I'm unwilling? Ultimately, it's because I don't have a medical license, which makes things somewhat restrictive."

"And I'm also too young. In critical moments, in the end, they still trust those so-called experts."
