You only need to add DFPHeiLight-B5 to the Serif aliases.

I don't think you need to specify zh lang in font matching.
Try the following:

    <match target="pattern">
        <test name="family">
            <string>Serif</string>
        </test>
        <test name="weight" compare="more">
            <const>medium</const>
        </test>
        <edit name="family" mode="prepend">
            <string>DFPHeiBold-B5</string>
        </edit>
    </match>
    <match target="pattern">
       <test name="family">
           <string>DFPHeiLight-B5</string>
       </test>
       <test name="weight" compare="more">
           <const>medium</const>
       </test>
       <edit name="family" mode="assign">
           <string>DFPHeiBold-B5</string>
       </edit>
    </match>

I use similar settings as above and mine works fine.
Good luck.
