Feeling anxious, Lin Jie walked into the classroom and, looking at the pairs of eyes filled with respect and thirst for knowledge, unexpectedly felt much more at ease.

In the past, when he didn't know what tomorrow would bring and was living aimlessly waiting for death, he didn't seem to worry this much.

Now with so much to lose, he was even more worried.

"What's the worst that could happen? Could it be worse than before?"

Thinking this, Lin Jie began to steel himself, secretly thinking, "If it really gets on my nerves, I'll just break it off. I've lived a life I've only dreamed of for this past year, so it's more than worth it."

Having those thoughts made Lin Jie feel much lighter, and standing on the podium, he began, "Starting this class, I'll talk about the body's largest digestive gland, the liver..."

For more than three hours, Lin Jie meticulously completed the class as usual.

After class, he gathered the students to hear their latest observations on the experimental monkeys and some research progress related to the topic.

"You've done quite well!"

After generally affirming everyone's work, Lin Jie said, "Presumably, you all heard from Fang Huanru that today's one-on-one conversations are paused and will resume next Thursday."

Seeing everyone's relieved expressions, Lin Jie smiled and said, "However, on this Sunday…"

He deliberately paused, and Tian Xiangyu, Xiao Ganghao, and others instantly tensed up, staring at him nervously.

"On this Sunday afternoon, I will take you to the Sunshine Hot Spring Resort on the outskirts to relax. The schedule is to leave at 2 PM and return to school around 9 PM."

This place was suggested by An Kexin.

There is a large amusement park, hot springs, and the farmhouse feast is quite good there.

According to An Kexin, two hours of amusement, one hour in the hot spring, a water therapy SPA, ending with a sumptuous farmhouse dinner, would sweep away all physical and mental fatigue.

"I will ask the college teachers to take care of the six experimental monkeys."

"Arrange your study and other affairs properly and gather on time."

After saying this, Lin Jie left without waiting for everyone's reaction, but he heard the students whispering before he even walked out of the classroom.

"Quick, pinch me, I need to make sure I'm not dreaming."

"Was that really the teacher just now? Could he have been swapped with someone else?"

"Don't celebrate too early; blessings and disasters come hand in hand. Could there be something more burdensome waiting for us?"

Lin Jie couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle...

After leaving the teaching building and getting in the car, Lin Jie took his phone from Qin Gang's hand, checked it, and found no calls or messages from the Fu Family, which left him a bit disappointed.

"Lin Jie, are we heading home or...?"

Hearing Qin Gang's question, Lin Jie casually said, "Let's go home."

The car started, and just then, Lin Jie's phone abruptly rang. It wasn't a call from the Fu Family, but from Principal Pan Xinli.

"Principal Pan, you..."

Lin Jie's words were cut off halfway by Pan Xinli's urgent interruption, "Expert Lin, are you at the school right now?"

"I am, what's the..."

"Come to the school hospital as fast as possible, there's a severe emergency patient, quick... quick!"

"Qin Gang, to the school hospital as fast as you can!"

Lin Jie immediately instructed Qin Gang and then said to Pan Xinli on the other end of the phone, "Principal, first tell me about the patient's injuries."

"Oh... right... the patient's injuries!"

Pan Xinli calmed down a bit and said solemnly, "The patient fell from a high place, struck his abdomen on an external air-conditioning unit, ran for dozens of meters after landing, and then fainted on the ground before being discovered and sent to the school hospital."

"The school hospital's examination found a liver vein rupture."

"Expert Lin, you know the school hospital's medical conditions and resources are very limited, such a surgery is impossible to perform there."

"And at this time, the traffic outside is heavily congested, and sending the patient to a big hospital may not be timely. So, Expert Lin, we must ask for your help this time."

Liver vein rupture, the difficulty of repairing this surgery almost matches half a liver transplant.

This kind of surgery is indeed beyond the doctors at the school hospital.

In a flash, Lin Jie arrived at the hospital in less than three minutes.

Just getting out of the car, a nurse approached, hurriedly helping Lin Jie into surgical attire while urgently saying, "Expert Lin, Dr. Liang can't stop the bleeding and we've opened three blood transfusion channels for fast transfusion, but the hospital's AB type plasma reserve is almost exhausted."

"The principal is mobilizing staff, teachers, and students with AB blood type to donate blood."

Entering the school hospital, two more nurses approached with washing and disinfection tools, quickly sterilizing Lin Jie's arms and hands.

By the time Lin Jie reached the operating room on the second floor, he was fully suited in surgical attire, mask, cap, and rubber gloves, ready for surgery.

Entering the operating room, a heavy smell of blood hit him in the face.

Lin Jie found that the floor around the operating table was already covered in flowing blood.

"Move aside, let me!"

Upon hearing these words, Dr. Liang, the previous chief surgeon, as if granted amnesty, immediately stepped aside for Lin Jie to take the lead.

Lin Jie stood at the operating table, reaching both hands into the blood-filled abdomen of the injured, searching for possible bleeding points.

Feeling the spray direction of the blood with his fingers, Lin Jie calmly said, "Hemostatic forceps!"

A hemostatic forceps was promptly handed over, and Lin Jie used a blind clipping method to stop one bleeding point!

Lin Jie used five hemostatic forceps in total to temporarily stop the major bleeding points in the patient's abdomen.

"Suction!"

With Lin Jie's command, two suction tubes entered the patient's abdomen, quickly clearing the blood.

Once the surgical view was clear, Lin Jie examined the patient's liver damage along with other abdominal and intestinal injuries, then looked at Dr. Liang across and asked, "I'll handle the liver and vascular repair, can you take care of the other injuries?"

"Doctor, I can do it."

The way Dr. Liang addressed him caught Lin Jie's attention—he looked at him again, but with his face covered by a surgical mask and cap, and splattered with blood, Lin Jie couldn't really tell who he was.

Maybe had attended one or two of his lectures, Lin Jie thought, and without paying more attention, focused entirely on repairing the liver damage...

After more than two hours, Lin Jie finally completed the liver and major abdominal bleed repairs on the patient.

He then checked the repairs Dr. Liang had done and found them decent, with no significant issues expected.

After making some corrections, installing a drainage tube, stitching up the abdomen, and checking the patient's vital monitoring, Lin Jie instructed, "Dr. Liang, I'll leave the follow-up care to you."

Afterward, Lin Jie exited the operating room, where he was immediately surrounded by Pan Xinli and a dozen others waiting outside.

Before they could ask, Lin Jie calmly stated, "The patient is out of life-threatening danger, and once stabilized, can be transferred to a larger hospital."

A middle-aged woman relaxed upon hearing this news but immediately said indignantly, "Why didn't he just die in the operating room?"

Lin Jie was somewhat puzzled by this!

Pan Xinli gently pulled him aside and whispered, "The patient is a teacher at the school, had an affair with a married woman; unfortunately, her husband returned home."

"Terrified, he jumped from the fourth-floor window, resulting in this situation."

Pan Xinli sighed, shaking his head, "What a sin, what a pity."

With such a scandal, not only did this teacher almost lose his life, but he would surely be dismissed from the school, which is a tremendous loss.

However, Lin Jie had no sympathy for such a person.

He took off the surgical attire, cleaned up a bit, and left the school hospital.

Suddenly, Lin Jie noticed in the distance ahead, under the dim light, Fu Xiuyuan was chatting and laughing with two men.

He recognized one of them.

This was someone he had seen a few days ago at Huiming Eye Hospital—Ye Peihua.
