Domination of the Aristocratic Dynasty After a Body Swap with the CEO

Chapter 107

The news that Zhong Ruanxing fell from a great height and was severely injured and unconscious quickly dominated the headlines of major news outlets.

At such critical moments concerning life and death, netizens always pay more attention. Moreover, this was a rare incident in the entertainment industry where someone was injured due to a stage machinery accident. Even explosive news like Xie Yunwei's drug use was ignored as people prayed for Zhong Ruanxing's safety.

Zhong Ruanxing's superforum was filled with solemnity as fans tried every means to pray for her.

After hesitating for a moment, the assistant who had been keeping track of Zhong Ruanxing's whereabouts still informed Cheng Yaowen about the news.

Although Miss Zhong had a boyfriend who had even come to warn Cheng, Mr. Cheng obviously still hadn't given up. So the assistant could only continue to keep track of Miss Zhong's whereabouts to report to Cheng anytime.

Recently, Cheng Yaowen had been extremely busy with things at the company. That damned Song Jinxing had caused him a lot of trouble, and clearly wanted to deliberately make things difficult for him unlike the Tian family who had left evidence. Cheng Yaowen's competitive spirit was aroused as his mind was set on fighting Song to the end.

Suddenly hearing the news brought by the assistant, he was stunned for a few seconds.

After a while, he asked, "Is it serious?"

The assistant said, "I heard she's still being rescued. I don't know the specifics."

Cheng Yaowen frowned and asked, "You said she fell from the suspension wire?"

The assistant replied, "That's what the news said."

Cheng Yaowen's expression was indiscernible as he turned and left.

When he returned home, he saw his mother happily directing the servants to plant flowers in the yard. Seeing him return, she hurriedly came up and said, "Son, why are you back so early today? Look, I had all these trees chopped down to transform this area into a flower garden, just right outside your window."

Cheng Yaowen said, "Come inside, I have something to ask you."

Cheng's mother's expression changed. She hesitated for a while but still followed him inside.

Cheng Yaowen turned around and showed her the news headline on his phone, "Do you know about Zhong Ruanxing's injury from falling from a height?"

Seeing the news headline, Cheng's mother had an undisguised look of smugness on her face. "Good that she fell! She deserves to die!"

Cheng Yaowen suddenly erupted in anger, fiercely grabbing Cheng's mother's shoulder, almost crushing her bones. "Was it you?! Was it you?!"

Cheng's mother's face revealed pain as she struggled and shouted, "It wasn't me! She deserved it! Look what she did to your uncle's family. This is retribution for all the bad things she has done!"

Seeing his mother's evasive eyes, Cheng Yaowen suddenly laughed.

He released his hand and gently tidied up the clothes on his mother's shoulder that he had crumpled. He gently said, "You're right, retribution comes to those who have done bad deeds. You're not afraid of retribution at all, are you?"

Cheng's mother held her head high and said, "Of course I'm not afraid. I've never done anything bad!"

Cheng Yaowen nodded. He said, "I won't pursue the Tian family matter anymore."

Cheng's mother finally changed her expression and rushed up to grab him. "What are you talking about, son! That's your uncle, your maternal grandfather! How can you not pursue it?"

Cheng Yaowen shook off her hand and walked out without looking back, ignoring her shouts behind him.

...

When Song Jinxing arrived at the hospital, it had been over three hours since Zhong Ruanxing fell from the suspension wires.

Ran Ting came down to receive him. Her eyes were badly swollen but she brought good news, "The surgery was very successful. The doctor said she's out of mortal danger now. We just need to wait for her to wake up."

Song Jinxing hurriedly made his way to the ward. This was the first time he saw her from his own perspective.

So this was how it felt.

The beeping sound of the life support equipment echoed in the quiet ward. He slowly walked to the bedside and sat down, motionless, looking at her face with eyes closed. After a long time, he gently held her hand.

"Wake up soon."

He said very softly.

The crew finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the successful surgery. This was completely the crew's fault. The stage machinery malfunctioned so they had to take full responsibility. Just when the team responsible for inspecting the suspension wires was fretting, a man in a suit suddenly appeared on set with the police.

He introduced himself as Fu Ling, a staff member of Zhong Ruanxing's team. He suspected this accident was man-made and demanded a thorough inspection.

If it was just called an accident before, Fu Ling's statement now pushed this matter towards another climax.

If it was deliberate, wouldn't it be attempted murder?

Did a murder attempt really occur in their Floating Voice Song crew??? If this got out, would they even be able to continue shooting and airing the drama? The crew panicked and immediately went to consult the director.

He Jing had also just returned from the hospital. Upon hearing Fu Ling brought the police, he did not try to stop it as the crew imagined. Instead, he waved his hand and told the entire crew to cooperate with the comrades from the police. If it really was deliberate, the perpetrator must be found and brought to justice.

Not only did Fu Ling bring the police, he also brought Song Group's legal team, seeming determined to find the person behind the scenes even if he had to dig three feet into the ground.

The crew didn't know these were people from Song Group. They just felt Zhong Ruanxing's team was so reliable and capable.

The doctors from Nanshan who rushed over also arrived at the hospital. After meeting with the local doctors who performed surgery on Zhong Ruanxing, and after reviewing the images, they came to the same conclusion - no vital organs damaged, she would be fine once she woke up. Waking up was just a matter of time. After she woke up, follow-up treatments would be done with hospitalization and observation to see if there were any sequelae.

However, as long as Zhong Ruanxing hadn't woken up, she couldn't be considered out of danger.

From the time Song Jinxing arrived at the hospital, he had been sitting by the bed holding her hand, keeping watch over her motionlessly. Ran Ting came in to check several times but silently retreated each time.

Until Zhong's father arrived with Zhong You.

Seeing the anxious father and son, Song Jinxing finally slowly stood up. "Uncle Zhong."

Zhong's father felt Song looked familiar but couldn't care less at this point. He went to the bedside to see his unconscious daughter, and his eyes reddened. But a man shouldn't let tears fall easily, so he just forcibly held them back and hoarsely asked, "What did the doctor say?"

Song Jinxing relayed the doctor's original words to him before Zhong's father finally felt slightly more at ease.

Zhong You looked at Song then at his sister lying in bed, secretly wiping away tears.

The three of them kept vigil in the ward until night fell. Song Jinxing called Fu Ling to book rooms at a nearby hotel and handed the keycard to Zhong's father, "Uncle Zhong, I'll keep watch here. Please take Youyou to the hotel to rest. Have a meal, take a shower, and come back tomorrow."

After being silent for hours, Zhong's father's brain was finally able to function again. Looking at the tall and handsome man before him, he recalled Zhong You's birthday from before when this man had taken his younger daughter to the amusement park.

Back then, Zhong Ruanxing said he was a friend. But if he was just a friend, how could he take care of their family to this extent?

Zhong's father was silent for a moment before finally asking, "What is your relationship with my daughter?"

Song Jinxing's lips curled up slightly. After a long pause, he said softly, "I'm her boyfriend."
