This sound was very short, but it caused the nurse to be stunned.
Her body stiffened and she turned her head subconsciously, only to see that the straight line on the device was now showing fluctuations.
“There’s a heartbeat! Hurry up! Continue!”
The other doctors cried out in pleasant surprise. Doctor Xu was also slightly stunned for a moment before looking at Shen Ruojing in shock. He then hastened his actions.
!!
After another ten seconds, another short “beep” sounded, followed by a stable “beep, beep, beep”…
Everyone in the room found these sounds wonderful!
Song Chen had recovered his heartbeat and he was saved!
Shen Ruojing immediately took a step forward and lifted his eyelids to take a look. She then checked the data on the medical devices and only heaved a huge sigh of relief after realizing that there was no damage to his brain.
Doctor Xu came off the bed while panting; his legs had turned to jelly and he almost fell down. He then rubbed his sore hands and looked at Shen Ruojing, saying, “Miss Shen, are you versed in medicine? To think that you guessed it correctly that this is a case of potassium chloride poisoning!”
Shen Ruojing replied calmly, “Hmm, I know a little.”
She then looked at the nurse who had spoken up earlier.
The nurse was clearly in a daze and was looking at Song Chen in disbelief. She then looked at Shen Ruojing as her hands clenched tightly, released, and then clenched tightly again. In the end, she said meekly, “You, you were actually right…”
Doctor Xu frowned and reproached her, “You went overboard earlier. Even if it wasn’t Miss Shen, you shouldn’t be treating patients’ family members this way. Go and submit your resignation letter later.”
The nurse lowered her head in embarrassment before she bowed at Shen Ruojing. “I’m sorry, I was at fault.”
She had seen too many cases of second-generation heirs creating trouble and mess, thus she had thought that Shen Ruojing was one of them. This was why she had treated Shen Ruojing like that before…
However, Shen Ruojing gave Doctor Xu a glance and said, “There’s no need to resign. It’s your responsibility to listen to the doctors’ instructions.”
The nurse looked up abruptly, and her eyes reddened as she looked at Shen Ruojing.
Doctor Xu also took a step forward, wanting to fawn on Shen Ruojing.
However, at this moment, the door to the ward was pushed open.
Ye Lu, dressed in a standard white coat, led two people in. She looked at everyone in the room and said, “I’ll be taking over from here. Can all unconcerned individuals please leave immediately?”
Doctor Xu. “?”
CPR required a lot of stamina. Previously, in order to perform well in front of Miss Shen, he didn’t switch with another medical staff. So now, his limbs had all turned to jelly. But to think that the patient would be snatched from him before he could ask for some credit?
After Ye Lu finished these words, some more bodyguards entered. They stood with their legs slightly apart, their hands behind their backs, and they stared at the doctors and nurses with fierce gazes. It seemed like they wanted to watch as the medical staff leave.
Shen Ruojing said calmly, “I’m sorry, but due to the poisoning incident, no one will be allowed into the ward without my permission from now on.”
Although the person she liked was Chu Cichen, Song Chen had taken the initiative to look for her and resolved her confusion from back then. Most importantly, he had taken a bullet for her.
Therefore, Shen Ruojing was going to assure Song Chen’s safety.
She was the one who called Ye Lu over. Ye Lu was the only person she could trust.
It was possible for these people to poison a patient without being caught in the Shen Family’s hospital. Therefore, Shen Ruojing decided to cut off everyone’s entry.
She still had to look for the person who wanted to kill her through Song Chen, uncover the mastermind, and find out the truth about why those people had Song Chen masquerade as Chu Cichen back then!

When Doctor Xu was chased out of the ward, he still felt that he was such a joke.
He shook his head before he headed to his consultation room.
He had just walked over when he saw a woman with a gentle and amiable disposition sitting on the wooden bench outside his door. It was Rong Rong.
Doctor Xu paused in his footsteps for a moment before walking over to ask, “Why are you here?”
He knew that the reason Rong Rong had stayed behind must be for the eldest young miss of the Shen Family. But if that was the case, why was she here instead of staying outside the ward?
Naturally, Rong Rong had done this to avoid the Shen Family’s Eldest Young Miss.
She didn’t wish to curry favor with others and just wanted to live her own life. Therefore, she stood up and handed the soup to Doctor Xu. “I’m sorry, my mother asked me to pass this on to you. I won’t come and disturb you again in the future.”
After saying that, Rong Rong turned to leave.
However, Doctor Xu called out to her, “Little Rong,”
Rong Rong paused in her footsteps and turned back to look at him.
Doctor Xu smiled at her. “I really don’t mind your past. Why don’t you believe me?”
Hearing this, Rong Rong fell silent.
Doctor Xu really treated her quite well. When the two of them met on a matchmaking date, he was very nice to her. Later on, she realized that Mother Rong didn’t tell him the truth that she had been behind bars before, so she exposed this fact.
Doctor Xu was a little astonished then but still politely said that he’d slowly learn to accept her.
However, Rong Rong suggested that they should just break up. She didn’t wish to hold him back.
After Mother Rong found out about that, she forced Rong Rong to come to patch things up with Doctor Xu.
Rong Rong lowered her head. “I’m sorry. I was planning to not get married in this lifetime…”
Her past was too bad. The fact that she had been imprisoned for 13 years was just the result, but no one knew about the process.
Doctor Xu took a step forward. “I know that you mind your past, so you’re unwilling to accept me. But I really like you. I’ve liked you ever since we were in school. Can’t you give me a chance?”
Rong Rong bit her lips, looking up at him in disbelief. “You like me?”
“That’s right,” Doctor Xu said. “By right, based on my status, I’m not a good match for you. Therefore, I only dared to get close to you now after what happened. Do you know? When you came to matchmake with me, I was shocked. I kept feeling that I was unworthy of you until you told me that you had gone to jail before. Only then did I make up my mind. Therefore, I hope that you can give me a chance.”
He then took Rong Rong’s hand and said, “Marry me and forget about the past. We can live our life together happily.”
Rong Rong took a step back, breaking free from his grasp. She said meekly, “I…I need to think about this.”
She then left in a panic.
...
Doctor Xu watched her leave and suddenly let out a soft laugh, his gaze revealing a hint of contempt.
However, Rong Rong didn’t see that.
13 years of imprisonment had worn out her sharpness. After she was released, other than Little Jing’s family, even her parents despised her. They told her never to bring up her past.
No one would care for her like Doctor Xu did, saying that they liked her…
At this moment, Rong Rong was a little swayed.
Forgetting about the past, no longer bringing it up, and starting a brand new life seemed not a bad option too.
Just as she was thinking in a daze, she arrived outside the hospital.
Only then did she realize that her family’s car had left to send Mother Rong home.
She picked up her phone and noticed that Mother Rong had sent her a message: [I’ll be heading back by myself first. You can call a ride home yourself.]
Call a ride…
Rong Rong let out a bitter laugh.
...
She wanted to go out to work, but the Rong Family didn’t allow her to do so for fear that she’d made a mockery of herself. However, ever since she returned to the family, they hadn’t given her a single cent. How would she have the money to call for a ride?
Just as Rong Rong was planning to walk back…
Suddenly, a car stopped in front of her. She looked up and saw Shen Ruojing in the front passenger seat, beckoning at her. “Sis Rong, I’ll send you back.”
Rong Rong’s eyes lit up and she got on without hesitation.
She sat in the hind passenger seat, only to realize that the driver was the man who had stayed by Little Jing’s side. As if noticing her gaze, Shen Ruojing introduced, “He is Chu Cichen.”
Rong Rong was slightly stunned. “Chu Cichen?”
Little Jing’s ray of light?
She sized Chu Cichen up seriously and then felt heartfelt happiness for Shen Ruojing. “Little Jing, congrats.”
Shen Ruojing’s lips curled slightly, but she still asked, “What is it between you and that Doctor Xu?”
Rong Rong lowered her head. “I’m still considering it.”
“Oh, then consider it well. Don’t be in a hurry.”
Rong Rong pursed her lips. “Alright.”
She fell silent once again.
Shen Ruojing was never good at consoling others and didn’t know what she should say. Thankfully, the Rong Manor wasn’t far off from the hospital and they soon arrived.
Shen Ruojing sent Rong Rong off of the car and said to her, “Sis Rong, if you have any difficulties, you have my number.”
Rong Rong nodded.
At this moment, the Rong Manor’s gate was suddenly opened.
Mother Rong walked out. When she saw Rong Rong, her eyes gleamed. However, when she saw Shen Ruojing, she frowned and then turned to Rong Rong. “Why did you get involved with her again?”
Rong Rong lowered her gaze. “It wasn’t easy to get a ride, so Little Jing sent me home.”
Mother Rong looked at Shen Ruojing in contempt before she asked the question she was most concerned about, “Did you manage to add the Shen Family’s eldest young miss on WeChat?”
Rong Rong shook her head.
Mother Rong fumed and said provocatively, “You always hang out with such indecent people and don’t do any proper things! What else can you do?!”
