Perhaps moved by Zhan Jinzhi's gaze, Wei Yumeng finally stopped her actions.
For the sake of the child, she was willing to stay and have Zhan Mohan give her an explanation.
But what if everything was as she imagined, what should she do then?
Mu Linjing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Wei Yumeng seemed to have calmed down a bit.
"Yumeng, let's sit down and think about it properly, okay?" she said, taking Wei Yumeng's hand and sitting down on the bed together. "I know you're heartbroken, but think carefully, in the past, when you encountered such things, how did you handle them? And when did he ever truly betray you?"
Wei Yumeng fell silent. Indeed, in the years past, Zhan Mohan had never done anything to betray her.
But for some reason, as time went by, she became less and less confident in herself.
After all, she was no longer as young or as beautiful as Mi Qi.
Recalling the photo exposed by the media, even she felt that Zhan Mohan and Mi Qi made a good match.
How could this make her feel at ease?
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Zhan Jinzhi proactively said, "Let's go open the door."
He still wanted Mu Linjing to accompany Wei Yumeng, in case something happened if they weren't careful.
Soon, the two children brought Zhan Yangyi and Zhan Yichen in.
"Yumeng."
"Sister-in-law."
Wei Yumeng looked up at them but still lacked spirit. "You're here?"
"Yes, we want to take you somewhere," Zhan Yichen said.
Wei Yumeng looked at them with some confusion, not knowing what they intended to do at this time.
"Yumeng, I think we should go and see, it won't delay anything anyway."
Mu Linjing had already exchanged glances with Zhan Yichen. She knew that these two definitely had other plans.
Wei Yumeng then nodded. "Alright."
Zhan Yangyi and Zhan Yichen breathed a sigh of relief. They had also thought that Wei Yumeng might ignore them due to her low spirits, but fortunately, everything seemed not as bad as imagined.
"Yichen, what exactly are you trying to do?" Mu Linjing whispered in his ear.
Zhan Yichen raised an eyebrow. "It's not that we're rushing anything, it's what brother is planning to do."
Mu Linjing was stunned. "But isn't he still a week away from returning?"
Zhan Yichen shrugged. "Given what has happened, do you think he can still stay there?"
"That's true."
This put Mu Linjing at ease. As long as Zhan Mohan had plans, she didn't have to worry that there was a real problem between them.
After a long while, Wei Yumeng finally arrived at her destination.
But looking at the scene before her, Wei Yumeng couldn't understand what was here.
In front of her was just a large, flat open space, nothing else.
Zhan Yangyi checked the time. "We're five minutes early, let's wait a moment."
Wei Yumeng had no choice but to agree. She was now even more curious about what was going on.
Finally, Wei Yumeng suddenly heard the sound of propellers in the air.
Looking up, she saw a helicopter gradually approaching them.
"This is..." Wei Yumeng recognized the owner of the helicopter at a glance. If it wasn't Zhan Mohan, who could it be?
But... but wasn't he supposed to be back in a week?
And she wasn't ready to accept everything, what should she do?
Thinking this, Wei Yumeng turned around and intended to flee, but Mu Linjing saw through her thoughts and grabbed her arm.
"Yumeng, don't run. I think you should at least listen to his explanation before making a decision, shouldn't you?"
"Yumeng." As he spoke, Zhan Mohan had already gotten off the helicopter. "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this business trip to cause you so much trouble. All of this was completely beyond my expectations."
He said, taking a few steps closer to Wei Yumeng. "Yumeng, let me explain, Mi Qi and I have no relationship whatsoever. Those photos and news were all her private publicity stunts for her own popularity."
As Zhan Mohan spoke, he took out his phone. A video call was in progress.
"You'd better tell the truth honestly," he said to the person on the video.
"I... I admit, I have no relationship with Mr. Zhan. Everything was arranged by me. Because people in the industry all know that Mr. Zhan has a great reputation in all fields, so I thought being associated with him would increase my popularity and status. I just didn't expect that Mr. Zhan would discover it."
But even after hearing this, Wei Yumeng still faced outwards, showing no intention of turning to look at Zhan Mohan.
"Yumeng, although I've only been away from you for a few days, I miss you so much. I want to return to your side every moment, so I came back early. Please don't treat me like this, okay?" Zhan Mohan's voice, for a rare moment, carried a hint of sadness.
Wei Yumeng took a deep breath and finally turned around. She saw Zhan Mohan holding a large bouquet of roses and looking at her gently.
Seeing this, Mu Linjing simply pushed Wei Yumeng forward, and Wei Yumeng stumbled towards Zhan Mohan.
Zhan Mohan had no time to worry about anything else and reached out to catch Wei Yumeng.
"Let go of me," Wei Yumeng struggled instinctively. "I'm not completely over my anger yet."
"I know," Zhan Mohan whispered in her ear. "I know it's my fault, so I'll take responsibility for making you happy. How about I hold you like this until you forgive me?"
Wei Yumeng then remembered that there were other people watching them.
"No, you should let me go quickly."
"Then you're not angry anymore?" Zhan Mohan asked tentatively.
"I..." Wei Yumeng remembered Zhan Mohan's words. She knew that Zhan Mohan could really do it, so she could only say, "You've already proven that this wasn't your fault, so what else do I have to be angry about?"
Hearing this, Zhan Mohan lowered his head and sealed her lips.
Wei Yumeng now felt only a sense of happiness at regaining what she had lost. It turned out that all her worries had been in vain.
Yes, what else could she doubt about their feelings?
Wei Yumeng began to respond to Zhan Mohan actively, and Zhan Mohan naturally deepened the kiss.
Zhan Yichen watched the scene and simply raised an eyebrow. "It's good that this was just a misunderstanding. If something like this had really happened, I would never agree."
Mu Linjing also nodded. "If something like that had really happened, I would hate the Zhan family forever."
"Wife, I'm innocent, okay? What does this have to do with me?"
Mu Linjing deliberately said, "Of course it has something to do with it. It's also because you brothers didn't keep an eye on each other."
Zhan Yangyi also smiled and said, "That makes sense. It seems Yichen and I will have to keep a closer eye on you in the future."
On the other side, after the kiss ended, Wei Yumeng looked at Zhan Mohan with only love in her eyes.
"Mohan, welcome home."
