"Heh... Hahahaha." Director Wu looked at Wei Yumeng and suddenly laughed, "Miss Wei, you don't think this leaves me helpless against you, do you?"
Wei Yumeng immediately sensed a dangerous aura emanating from Director Wu.
"Miss Wei, since you are Mrs. Zhan, you must be very important to him, right?"
As he spoke, Director Wu stood up and deliberately walked a few steps closer to Wei Yumeng.
Wei Yumeng suddenly realized what he was about to do. He was desperate and planned to take her hostage to force Zhan Mohan to let him off the hook.
"Director Wu, you should think carefully. If you do what you're about to do, it will no longer be a simple business issue."
Director Wu sneered, "It seems Miss Wei doesn't know my background at all. The status I've achieved today is all thanks to my associates, who were all desperate men in the past."
Wei Yumeng took a step back. It seemed that no matter how she tried to persuade him, it was useless.
She retreated step by step towards the conference room door, but Director Wu and his assistant pressed closer.
"Miss Wei, if you cooperate, I can at least guarantee you won't get hurt. But if you don't, I can't guarantee your safety."
Director Wu's face contorted, a stark contrast to his formal attire, a contrast that even made Wei Yumeng feel disgusted.
But how could she escape this predicament now?
In fact, knowing that Zhan Mohan would never allow her to get involved in this matter, she had kept it from him, only saying that she wanted to talk to Director Wu to see if there were other ways to solve the problem.
But she never expected Director Wu to be this kind of person.
Wei Yumeng had already reached the conference room doorknob, but no matter how hard she tried to open it, it wouldn't budge.
"How could this be?" Wei Yumeng became anxious. The door had to malfunction at such a critical moment.
Seeing Wei Yumeng's situation, Director Wu became even more triumphant. "Miss Wei, you can't escape now."
Just then, the conference room door was flung open, and Director Wu, who was about to approach Wei Yumeng, was suddenly kicked out by a force.
Zhan Mohan pulled Wei Yumeng behind him. Wei Yumeng looked at Zhan Mohan with surprise.
But Zhan Mohan simply held her hand tightly and said to the bodyguards beside him, "Arrest them all."
Seeing Zhan Mohan, Director Wu took a sudden step back, trying to escape. But this was Zhan Group's territory after all; where could he run?
In a short while, Director Wu and his men were all restrained by the bodyguards.
Zhan Mohan looked down at him, "Do you have anything else to say?"
But Director Wu, still struggling against the bodyguards, said, "Zhan Mohan, aren't you curious about what's really going on with your wife's illness?"
Zhan Mohan said coldly, "You had someone put drugs in her vitamins, and there were drug residues in her usual cup as well."
"No, it wasn't me," Director Wu said. "But I can tell you who instructed me, on the condition that you let me go and this matter is dropped."
Wei Yumeng looked at Zhan Mohan, "Mohan, if we let this kind of person go, who knows what problems he'll cause in the future."
"If you don't let me go, you'll never know who was behind this. You'll live in constant worry and fear."
Director Wu said this with considerable smugness, as if he could already see Zhan Mohan and Wei Yumeng frustrated.
Zhan Mohan took a deep breath, "But you must guarantee the truth of your words."
"Naturally. You can even apprehend the person immediately based on what I say."
Fang Xun placed a chair behind Zhan Mohan and Wei Yumeng. The two sat down, awaiting Director Wu to reveal the truth.
"Actually, I merely made a deal with him. I wanted to profit from Zhan Group, and he wanted to see your lives in disarray. So, we joined forces."
Hearing this, Wei Yumeng unconsciously began to search her mind. Who would harbor such a deep grudge against them? Finally, a name surfaced in her mind: Li Xian.
She and Zhan Mohan had previously caused Li Xian to lose his job.
Director Wu chuckled, "It seems you've already guessed who it is. Yes, it's Li Xian. We've actually known each other for a long time. Do you think he could have arrogantly stayed in a big company for so long without me cleaning up his messes? It's just that you two were an unexpected incident this time."
Hearing this, Zhan Mohan frowned, "In fact, you and Li Xian already had a vested interest. It was because of Li Xian's existence that you gained many business channels, which became the opportunity for you to become a boss. And Zhan Group cut off that channel for you, which is why you wanted to target Zhan Group."
"Smart. As expected of Mr. Zhan." Director Wu even showed an expression of admiration.
Wei Yumeng was stunned by what she was hearing. She had initially thought it was a simple poisoning incident, but now it seemed the entanglement of interests behind Director Wu and Li Xian was far more complicated than they had imagined.
"With my help, Li Xian bribed the maid at your villa and put drugs in Wei Yumeng's vitamins. After confirming the drugs took effect, I would then seek cooperation with Zhan Group. This way, when Miss Wei fell ill, I could do whatever I pleased." Director Wu said with some pride. "Even now, he still thinks he was the one being used, unaware that he was the one manipulated."
Wei Yumeng still felt a lingering fear. If she hadn't discovered that her belongings had been tampered with, things would likely have become even worse by today.
"So, you admit that this matter involves both you and Li Xian?" Zhan Mohan's gaze towards Director Wu held a trace of murderous intent.
"Yes, I admit it. But don't forget, you just promised me that this matter would be forgotten. Only Li Xian would pay the price."
Zhan Mohan's expression grew even colder, "When did you hear me say I agreed to that?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the police rushed in from outside the conference room.
"Officer, I believe you heard what just transpired. Our Zhan Group will formally prosecute this Director Wu. Of course, we will also hold Li Xian accountable," Zhan Mohan said to an officer.
The officer nodded, "Mr. Zhan, please rest assured. We will personally apprehend Li Xian."
Soon, the situation in the conference room finally settled down.
Wei Yumeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if all her strength had been drained away. So much had happened in such a short time.
Zhan Mohan put his arm around her, his tone still somewhat stern, "Although I understand you did this for me, never put yourself in such danger again in the future."
