Chapter 1 Wedge: Family Change
"Zhenzhen, your father, he, went to the roof of the company building and wanted to commit suicide! Hurry over there..."
ah?
Zhong Zhen was so frightened by his mother's crying call that he jumped up, and before he could answer, he ran out of the female dormitory of the Academy of Performing Arts with his mobile phone in his hand, ignoring the cold raindrops on his body, and rushed towards the school gate.
However, the college is located at the edge of the urban area, the traffic is sparse, and there is no taxi passing by at all. Zhong Zhen was in a hurry, rushed down the road desperately, and opened his arms to intercept a private car that was speeding by.
squeak!
Special assistant Xiang Ming slammed on the brakes, and the Bentley made a sharp noise and stopped within ten centimeters of Zhong Zhen!
"President Feng, are you alright?" Xiang Ming calmed down, and quickly asked his big boss sitting in the back seat.
"I'm fine." Feng Beichen said with a slight frown.
At this time, Zhong Zhen had already run to the car door and knocked on the glass window, bent over to look inside and begged repeatedly: "I have something urgent to rush to Ganyuan Building, please give me a ride, please? Please!"
Xiang Ming pressed the button, and the window slowly lowered.
When Feng Beichen's cold eyes fell on Zhong Zhen's wet face, he was slightly startled.
Just as Xiang Ming wanted to yell at Zhong Zhen who was outside, Feng Beichen spoke first: "Let her come up."
"... Oh." Surprised, Xiang Ming responded slowly, pressed the unlock button, and allowed Zhong Zhen to sit in the passenger seat shortly.
"Thank you, thank you!" Zhong Zhen hurriedly thanked him, his anxious eyes fixed on the Bentley's start, and then turned around at the intersection ahead.
No one spoke, and the atmosphere in the carriage froze.
Song Beichen stared at Zhong Zhen's side face through the flickering light, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that she had an overlapping effect with the figure hidden in his heart.
It's a pity that Zhong Zhen was so concerned about his father that he never distracted himself and looked back.
After driving fast and fast for about 20 minutes in the boring situation, I finally drove to the destination, Ganyuan Building.
At this time, the small square was full of hustle and bustle. Ambulances and fire engines were all gathered and parked at one side. A cordon was pulled up at the entrance of the lobby, and giant airbags were erected. Firefighters, security guards, and police were all on standby. Media reporters and onlookers who were rushing for news equipment persuaded them to disperse.
Zhong Zhen didn't wait for the car to come to a complete stop, and put his feet on the ground as soon as he opened the door.
"Ah! He jumped!" The crowd didn't know who screamed first, and the exclamations followed one after another.
Boom! A heavy body fell straight from the 38th floor, hit the edge of the airbag, and finally rolled to the ground!
The scene was suddenly full of people, and it was extremely noisy.
"My God! It's so miserable!"
"Don't look at it, let's go!"
"I'm going, I'm completely smeared!"
Zhong Zhen, who was just about to run over, felt his legs go weak, and he felt a blackness in front of his eyes: "No! Don't! Dad..." Before she could finish her words, she fell to the ground and passed out...
a week later.
The towering Chenxing Holding Group Building.
Feng Beichen sat in the CEO's office on the top floor reviewing documents.
Xiang Ming walked in and reported: "President Feng, the screening results are out, please have a look." He then handed over a document.
"Let's get straight to the point." Feng Beichen's expressionless face didn't even raise his head, and his voice had no warmth. He didn't want to be distracted by such matters.
Xiang Ming withdrew the information: "The selected candidate is Zhong Zhen, he is nineteen years old, a sophomore at the city's Academy of Performing Arts..."
"Zhong Zhen?" Feng Beichen repeated the familiar name, and the face of the girl who hurriedly stopped his car on a cold and rainy night a week ago appeared in his mind.
Xiang Ming felt that the big boss had already remembered who Zhong Zhen was, so he couldn't help raising his voice and said, "Yes, she is the girl who stopped our car and rushed to Ganyuan Building that night. If it meets your requirements, you should pay special attention to the movement of her house, as expected, she has nowhere to go after Zhong Ganyuan's death..."
Seeing that he was about to bring out all the news about Ganyuan Company and Zhong's family that had been continuously reported by the media in the past few days, Feng Beichen raised his hand impatiently to stop him: "Okay, it's her, remember the confidentiality measures Do it well and get out."
After finishing speaking, he continued to bow his head to review the documents, without even looking at Xiang Ming who was standing there in a daze...
At 8 o'clock that night, Zhong Zhen came to the agreed place on time and waited anxiously.
Tonight was supposed to be Dad's first seven days, and she should have held a funeral for him at home and burned some paper money or something, but since Dad committed suicide, she and her mother were robbed of their money by creditors. The family lives on the street, and all real estate and companies have been frozen by their application.
If it wasn't for the good intentions of the best friend to take them in, I'm afraid the two of them would sleep under the flyover. Unexpectedly, misfortunes never come singly. When my mother was running outside to borrow money from relatives, she accidentally fell to the ground and hit a sharp stone on the back of her head, causing her skull to be damaged. She was sent to the hospital for surgery. Still unconscious.
Zhong Zhen was exhausted both physically and mentally by taking care of her father's funeral and taking care of her mother lying on the hospital bed, but the most troublesome thing was the huge operation and treatment expenses. Being penniless and relying on the money and efforts of her girlfriends is not an answer. Tried to bite the bullet and went to her boyfriend Ji Yunxiao's house to ask for help, but as she expected, she was turned away and disappeared!
Ever since her father committed suicide, Ji Yunxiao and Ji's family have never appeared, not even a phone call or a word of condolences. The man who passionately pursued her before seemed to have never existed!
What chilled her the most was the uncle's family, they disappeared without a trace overnight, without even showing their faces!
If she couldn't raise money to pay the hospital's arrears in a short time, her mother would have to stop taking the medicine, and the consequences would be disastrous. At this moment, she received a mysterious call asking if she would like to be a surrogate, and the reward was two million.
There is no room for choice. If she can save her mother, she will do whatever she wants. She agreed immediately and had a comprehensive physical examination. This afternoon, she received a call to inform her that she was eligible, and today happened to be her ovulation period, so Let her come here to sign the agreement and pay the first deposit, and then implement the surrogacy procedure.
squeak……
A black Mercedes-Benz pulled over, and the sound brought Zhong Zhen, who was far away from her mind, back to her eyes. She couldn't help shaking her hands, and looked at the lowered car window with a pale face.
"Come up!" Sitting in the driver's seat, Xiang Ming wore a black baseball cap and a large mask to hide his face. He gestured frequently to the stunned Zhong Zhen.
Zhong Zhen had no choice but to open the back seat door and get in. Xiang Ming had already handed her the agreement he had prepared in advance: "Miss Zhong, after you read it carefully, sign it, and one million will be remitted to your account first. The child will hand over another one million later, and for the health of the child and the successful conception, I have to declare in advance that this must be carried out through physiological conception.”
Physical conception? After flipping through the contract, Zhong Zhen suddenly raised her head and stared at Xiang Ming. She knew that these four words meant that she was going to have sex with a strange man!
