After swapping bodies, I became a domineering CEO in a melodramatic novel.

Chapter 147 The old man... suddenly fainted!

"You..." Yu Yuetong swallowed the words she was about to say. She kept reminding herself that what had just happened was not her fault, and besides, she was no longer the defenseless heroine she once was, but a soul struggling to survive in adversity.

"I said you're not allowed to look!" His voice suddenly rose, deep and authoritative. Yu Yuetong couldn't help but shiver, but in the instant he slightly turned his face, she felt a tenderness she had never felt before. She understood, this was his way, his way of protecting her.

Upon seeing this, the police officers exchanged glances, somewhat taken aback and uneasy, like a group of schoolchildren who had done something wrong and were facing a stern teacher. The man before them exuded an unyielding aura that not only intimidated them but also silenced them.

"Then...shall we continue the investigation, Mr. Qin?" A young police officer finally mustered up his courage and stammered.

"I've already heard about what you need to deal with, there's no need to repeat it." Qin Reng's coldness seemed to freeze the entire atmosphere in a second, and then he turned his head to focus his attention on Yu Yuetong.

"Let's go," he said firmly, giving no room for anyone to object, and then put his arm around her shoulder and strode away.

Yu Yuetong's heart tightened, and he pulled her along, sweeping through the crowd like a storm. She tried to think about what had just happened, but couldn't make sense of it. Overwhelmed by fear and unease, she tried to find an excuse to resist, but he suppressed her with his powerful strength, leaving her powerless to struggle.

"I want to see what happened," Yu Yuetong finally couldn't help herself, her tone tinged with stubbornness.

"Now is not the time." Qin Reng frowned, his cold expression unable to conceal a hint of helplessness. He didn't want to mention the corpse again; he only wanted to get her to a safe place.

Yu Yuetong bit her lip, secretly deciding not to be so obedient anymore. The more assertive this man was, the more she wanted to test his limits. She made up her mind, grabbed his wrist, and forced him to stop.

"Qin Reng, tell me, why are you treating me like this?" Her voice was clear and firm, her eyes gleaming with an undeniable light. "Do you really consider me your fiancée?"

Their eyes met again, and the air instantly filled with a tense atmosphere. Qin Reng's gaze suddenly froze, as if startled by the unexpected question, leaving only a pause for words as he awaited a response.

Qin Reng's silence made Yu Yuetong feel uneasy. She seemed to see a hint of hurt flash in his eyes, which he quickly concealed. She regretted her impulsiveness; after all, they were still legally married, and saying such things was a bit too much.

"What exactly do you want to say?" Qin Reng's voice was low and hoarse, as if he was suppressing something.

"I..." Yu Yuetong was speechless for a moment. She couldn't very well say, "I just wanted to see where your bottom line is," could she? That would be too strange!

"What? Trying to get my attention this way?" Qin Reng suddenly took a step closer, a playful smile playing on his lips. "Unfortunately, I'm not interested in this kind of feigned indifference."

Yu Yuetong's eyes widened immediately. What kind of nonsense was this guy thinking!

"Stop being so presumptuous!" Yu Yuetong said, trying to push him away in embarrassment and anger, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.

"Let go of me!" Yu Yuetong struggled, but he held her even tighter.

"I won't let go." Qin Reng's voice rang in her ears, carrying a hint of domineering and unquestionable authority.

Yu Yuetong's heart suddenly raced. She could feel his warm breath on her ear, sending shivers down her spine. She tried to push him away, but he held her tightly in his arms, preventing her from moving.

"Qin Reng, what exactly do you want to do?" Yu Yuetong's voice trembled slightly; she didn't know what this man was up to this time.

"Didn't you want to know why I did this to you?" Qin Reng's voice was deep and sexy, with a touch of bewitching magic. "I'll tell you now."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Yu Yuetong's eyes widened instantly, her mind going blank. His kiss was domineering and passionate, carrying a hint of punishment, yet it captivated her, leaving her unable to extricate herself.

"Mmm..." Yu Yuetong tried to struggle, but he held her tightly. His kisses grew deeper and more passionate, as if he wanted to melt her in his arms.

Just then, a shrill cell phone ringtone suddenly broke the ambiguous atmosphere.

Qin Reng frowned unhappily and released Yu Yuetong.

Yu Yuetong quickly pushed him away, panting heavily, her cheeks flushed red.

Qin Reng took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and his face instantly turned gloomy.

"What is it?" His tone was icy, as if it could freeze a person.

"Mr. Qin, something terrible has happened, the old man..." came the anxious voice of the assistant on the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong with him?" Qin Reng's heart sank, and a bad premonition surged into his mind.

"The old man... suddenly fainted!"

"What happened to him?!" Qin Reng stood up abruptly, nearly crushing his phone in his hand. His voice was icy, freezing the surrounding air. The assistant's voice trembled with obvious panic: "Master... he suddenly fainted! The doctors are trying to resuscitate him, but his condition... it's not optimistic..."

Qin Reng's face turned deathly pale instantly. He squeezed his eyes shut, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. "I understand, I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Reng could no longer remain calm. He shoved Yu Yuetong, who was still standing there in a daze, and strode towards the door. Yu Yuetong was startled by his sudden action. Before she could react, she saw that he had already reached the door. She subconsciously wanted to call out to him, but the words stuck in her throat.

His mind is completely occupied with the old man; he doesn't care about her at all.

Watching Qin Reng's resolute back, Yu Yuetong felt a sudden, indescribable emotion welling up inside her. She didn't know what to do, so she could only silently follow behind him and get into the car heading to the hospital.

Throughout the journey, Qin Reng remained silent, his face terribly gloomy, radiating an aura of chilling intimidation. Yu Yuetong sat beside him, barely daring to breathe, only able to secretly observe his expression.

She could sense his anxiety and unease at that moment, a vulnerability she had never seen on his face before.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Qin Reng practically rushed into the emergency room, with Yu Yuetong following closely behind, only to be stopped at the door by a nurse. "I'm sorry, family members cannot enter."

Yu Yuetong anxiously explained, "I am..."

"She's also a patient's family member," Qin Reng's voice came from the emergency room, sounding tired and hoarse.

The nurse hesitated for a moment before letting Yu Yuetong in.
