Wei Yumeng arrived home late, but received a message from Zhan Mohan.
"There are some issues with the company project tonight, so I'll be back late. Don't wait up for me."
Reading this, Wei Yumeng could guess the reason, and she still felt somewhat apologetic. If she hadn't clashed with Xi Yingxue, perhaps things wouldn't have become so troublesome. The more she thought about it, the more she felt obligated to explain the matter clearly to Zhan Mohan. She ended up waiting for him on the sofa until she fell asleep.
Suddenly, in a daze, Wei Yumeng heard the sound of the door opening. She immediately opened her eyes and saw Zhan Mohan walking towards her.
"If you're tired, go to the room and rest. It's really okay if you don't wait for me."
Zhan Mohan was a little helpless. He almost always informed Wei Yumeng in advance, yet he still found Wei Yumeng glaring at him when he returned. Although he was indeed exhausted after a day of work, seeing Wei Yumeng always warmed his heart and made him feel like he was home. But he also felt sorry for Wei Yumeng and didn't want her to lose sleep because of him.
Wei Yumeng looked at Zhan Mohan with sincerity, "I'm waiting for you because there are some things I need to clarify."
Zhan Mohan thought for a moment, then sat beside her. "Tell me, I'll listen."
"I know you're working overtime today because of Xi Yingxue's matter, right?"
Zhan Mohan raised an eyebrow, not denying it.
"Actually, I was also involved in this matter..." Wei Yumeng recounted everything that happened that day to Zhan Mohan.
After hearing the whole story, Zhan Mohan couldn't help but smile. "Well done."
Wei Yumeng looked dejected, "Aren't you mad at me? Actually, if it weren't for me, the company's project wouldn't have been affected, and perhaps you wouldn't have been troubled." Although she had tried her best to solve some problems for the Zhan Group at the time, Wei Yumeng knew that when things were actually handled, they were always more troublesome than anticipated.
Zhan Mohan simply reached out and put his arm around Wei Yumeng's shoulders, "Why should I be mad at you? I don't think there's anything wrong with your actions; in fact, they were very correct."
Wei Yumeng blinked at Zhan Mohan.
"A company's reputation is not just built on its accumulated credibility; its partners also contribute significantly to its reputation. Even if you hadn't stumbled upon that Mr. Wang and his family's situation today, it's very likely that the same thing would have happened again in the future. But at that time, if you weren't present, there would be many more uncontrollable factors. It is precisely because you were present and witnessed the event that our negotiation today became much easier."
Zhan Mohan took a sip of water that Wei Yumeng handed him and continued, "Wang Shuo contacted me himself today and explained the problem. He was also very cooperative in helping Zhan Group find another spokesperson. So, apart from working a little overtime today, there were basically no losses."
Hearing this, Wei Yumeng also breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that her caution at the time was correct. It was because she had done Mr. Wang a favor and had witnessed everything that happened that Wang Shuo didn't try to shift all the blame onto others to escape responsibility.
"By the way," Zhan Mohan looked at Wei Yumeng and even pinched her nose. "Do you know what Wang Shuo told me before he left today?"
Wei Yumeng asked curiously, "What did he say?"
"He said, 'You have a good wife; you must cherish her and not make the same mistake he did.'"
Hearing this, Wei Yumeng burst into laughter. "I don't believe you would do something like him."
"Indeed, no other woman in this life can catch my eye."
For a moment, the living room was filled with a gentle atmosphere, and the mood between the two was just right.
"Um... Mohan," Wei Yumeng looked like she had something to say but hesitated.
Zhan Mohan looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
"I've been resting for so long lately, and I'm really bored at home. Can I go back to work?" Wei Yumeng tentatively asked.
Zhan Mohan didn't answer immediately but looked into Wei Yumeng's eyes. Wei Yumeng also looked at Zhan Mohan, as if trying to convey her sincerity in this way. However, she also anticipated being rejected but still wanted to try.
"Okay," Zhan Mohan said, "You can go back to work, but there are two conditions."
"What conditions?" Wei Yumeng asked.
"From now on, any project you're involved in, I will re-examine. Of course, this isn't doubting your ability, but worrying about your safety. Also, if you need to attend any social events, at least inform Fang Xun."
Wei Yumeng nodded. Neither of these conditions was a big problem for her.
"Yes, I have no objections."
Seeing Wei Yumeng's happy expression, Zhan Mohan felt a sense of helplessness. Sometimes he was grateful to have such a capable wife, but he also couldn't help but worry about Wei Yumeng.
The next day, Wei Yumeng eagerly returned to work. Due to previous events, her abilities had already gained the recognition of various senior executives.
"Sister-in-law, are you really okay?" Zhan Yichen looked at Wei Yumeng with concern.
Wei Yumeng retorted, "Do I look like I'm not okay?"
Zhan Yichen sighed, "To be honest, if I were in brother's shoes, and my wife had gone through so much, I definitely wouldn't let her come back."
"This is my own request. Rather than constantly being protected under Mohan's wing, I'd rather face whatever happens with him, whether it's family matters or company matters."
Zhan Yichen looked at Wei Yumeng's determined expression and chuckled, "Indeed, if it weren't like this, you wouldn't be Sister-in-law." He handed her a project proposal. "This is the project we will be working on next. Due to last night's Xi Yingxue incident, after deliberation, we have changed the spokesperson to this male celebrity named Xuan Hongyi. He is a member of a new idol group and currently the most popular one."
"Xuan Hongyi..." Wei Yumeng carefully examined his profile. She was indeed unfamiliar with these young idol groups and only thought the young man looked quite good.
"Here are the detailed project materials. Three days from now, we will hold a new product launch event, and Xuan Hongyi will officially attend. Please take care of this, Sister-in-law."
Wei Yumeng nodded. The materials Zhan Yichen provided were comprehensive, covering both the project and the spokesperson, and even including important notes. In that case, she had to complete this task well.
