"Mm-hmm." Zhang Huayao nodded, acknowledging that her conjecture is well-known and that any surgeon would take this into consideration during surgery.
"What I mean is," Xie Wanying further added, "if Teacher Zhang's intuition about the possibility of the patient's heart encountering problems during surgery is correct, and my estimate that there won't be significant bleeding is also correct, we're left with only one conclusion. It may not be massive bleeding during the surgery that leads to an acute cardiac event for the patient."
"Wait a second." Zhang Huayao gestured for her to pause, needing to consider the logic in her words, and said, "Are you suggesting that you aren't worried about the patient's surgery?"
"Not exactly. We always have to consider the possibility of unforeseen circumstances and have contingency plans in place for surgery," Xie Wanying explained.
