After further examining Yo Jiayong that afternoon, Wang Chuan and Yan Feifan conferred and scheduled the surgery for Thursday evening.
To ensure the best possible postoperative results, Yan Feifan visited Yo Jiayong's room whenever he had a spare moment on Wednesday and Thursday.
His goal, of course, was to familiarize himself with the muscle fibers throughout Yo Jiayong's body so he could find the optimal muscle bundles for transplantation in the shortest time possible during the operation.
As we grow and exercise, our muscle fibers only get longer or thicker; their number never changes.
To avoid impacting the function of the original muscles, Yan Feifan would only harvest a small number of muscle bundles from any single muscle for the transplant.
Fortunately, the muscle defect on Yo Jiayong's right mandible wasn't too extensive.
Even so, Yan Feifan had pre-selected a total of twenty-four sites on Yo Jiayong's body from which to harvest the muscle bundles.
