Forget chasing boys, Leona chases dreams. Big, beautiful, brain-shaped dreams. At 25, she's already a medical marvel, the sole woman vying for a spot in Shanghai's most elite neurosurgery programme. 
The problem? The old-school surgeons there think scalpels belong in men's hands, not manicured ones. Dr Li, her instructor, has a bedside manner colder than a scalpel and twice as sharp. Her family? They'd rather see her wield a spatula than a surgical tool. 
But Leona's got a wit sharper than her scalpel and a dream that burns brighter than an operating room light. Buckle up for a hilarious, high-stakes journey as she navigates a labyrinth of prejudice, patient scepticism, and a cutthroat hierarchy. Will she convince Dr Li that brilliance has no gender? Can she prove to the entire hospital that a woman's touch is just as steady (and maybe even more precise!) than a man's? Get ready for some serious face-slapping as Leona rewrites the medical history books, one surgery at a time.All Rights Reserved
