Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Back in 1996, when the daughter of the Old Xie family, Xie Wanying, said she wanted to be a doctor, many laughed. "Phoenix begets phoenix, dog spawns dog. A truck driver’s daughter becoming a doctor is as likely as a sow climbing a tree." "I’m not just going to be a doctor, I’m going to be a female chest surgeon," said Xie Wanying. Her words provoked even greater waves of disdain within the doctors' community. Relatives who were doctors ridiculed her mercilessly: "Do you know how high the admission scores are for medical students? Do you think you can make it?" "There are zero female chief chest surgeons in the country. Who do you think you are!" A bunch of people mocked her: "You'll probably only get into a third-rate medical college and end up as a health worker in a small county town. It's easy to imagine what sort of marriage you'll have." After the college entrance exams, Xie Wanying entered the top surgical class in the country with the highest science scores in the province, with department heads in the Capital’s top-tier hospitals vying for her from her internship beginnings. "Student Xie Wanying, come to our digestive surgery department." "No, she must come to our urological surgery—" "Pediatric surgery is in short supply of female doctors like student Xie Wanying." Circles of relatives and friends: … At this time, Xie Wanying independently completed the youngest Tetralogy of Fallot surgery in the country, represented the national association of chest surgery at an international medical forum, and published the world’s first minimally invasive heart valve repair surgery, becoming truly the foremost surgeon in the field of female surgery! As for the marriage concerns that everyone "worried" about: A brother from the Returned Overseas Faction, a hot bachelor within the Capital, changed his QQ profile picture to Junior Sister Xie. The young CEO, a handsome man, came to the hospital every day with flowers, keen to offer a diamond ring. Not to mention, a whole host of suitors had long since worn a path to the Old Xie Family's doorstep...

Her father hated her, hated her to the extreme.

Ever since she was born, even if her grades were good, it was a pain for her father. Because she was a girl, not a boy, every award certificate she received for her studies was a slap in her father's face. What good was it for a daughter to be capable? It would be better if a son was that strong.

In the Old Xie Family, it wasn't just about favoring sons over daughters, it was about men being masters and women being slaves. Xie Wanying remembered too well, every year during the family's Spring Festival dinner, the wives and daughters of the Xie Family had to eat in the kitchen. Only the men and the sons and grandsons could eat, drink, and be merry at the main table.

She wanted to be a doctor, a surgeon, which was a job only men could do. She wanted to do it for herself, for her mother, for all the women of the Old Xie Family, for all the women in this place who were looked down upon.

"What men can do, I, as a girl, can do the same."
