"No matter where Zhan Mohan has gone, he must give us an explanation now!"
"Yes, yes!"
The conference room was in chaos. It was not an easy task to pacify these old timers.
However, at this moment, Wei Yumeng picked up a chair and smashed it hard on the floor.
As expected, the loud noise made everyone fall silent.
"I understand how you feel, but have you ever thought about what results you will get if you continue to argue here?" Wei Yumeng was truly a little angry. "I understand that you don't trust my ability, but among you, who can truly step up and resolve this matter at this time?"
She looked around, but no one stepped forward. Their eagerness to avoid responsibility was quite laughable.
"Heh, you are also considered a member of the Zhan Corporation, and you claim to be shareholders of the Zhan Corporation, saying that the Zhan Corporation is responsible to you. But what about you? Not a single one of you steps up, only pushing the problems onto others." Wei Yumeng found it ridiculous. She didn't understand how these people had managed to stay with the Zhan Corporation until now.
"I'll say this here today. Whether you believe me or not is up to you. But once a problem arises, it won't be just me and Mohan who will bear the responsibility; none of you will escape!"
Perhaps it was because Wei Yumeng rarely spoke like this that her aura temporarily suppressed the others in the conference room.
After all, they were merely afraid of their own interests being harmed.
The conference room was dead silent. No one insisted on holding Zhan Mohan accountable anymore. They knew that if something happened to Zhan Corporation, they wouldn't be able to escape either.
"We lost our composure just now. We admit that Madam is right. Fine, we'll listen to you this time."
Only then did Wei Yumeng breathe a sigh of relief. As long as these people were willing to listen to her, everything would be manageable.
"This incident has indeed pushed our Zhan Corporation into a dangerous situation, but one thing can be changed. Although the other party has fled with their entire family, even if they deregister the company, evidence will remain with the industrial and commercial authorities. We must first find evidence of past cooperation with them to prove that the Zhan Corporation is not solely responsible. If this step is successful, the rest will be much easier."
The others nodded upon hearing this plan.
Fang Xun also said, "I have investigated this matter. It is now certain that the company deregistered and fled after the incident. This means our contract can still prove that the other party was responsible for the site at the time of the accident."
Wei Yumeng nodded. "In that case, I'll trouble you to compile all the documents later."
Fang Xun naturally agreed.
"Everyone, I hope that before there is a result, you will all understand your position and not lose confidence in the entire Zhan Corporation because of this small matter. I believe you know better than anyone that you and the Zhan Corporation are one. If the Zhan Corporation encounters trouble, you will too."
After Wei Yumeng finished speaking, she finally relaxed. "Alright, the current plan is sufficient as partial evidence. What we need to do next is to wait for the results from Mohan's side. Meeting adjourned."
After the meeting ended, everyone left, but Wei Yumeng remained.
Her heart was still pounding. In fact, she had been very nervous in the situation just now, and she had even considered the worst-case scenario if she couldn't control them.
Fortunately, everything had gone relatively smoothly.
Fang Xun poured Wei Yumeng a cup of hot water and handed it to her. "Madam, it was all thanks to you just now. I'll inform Mr. Zhan about this."
"No need," Wei Yumeng shook her head.
She felt a little awkward. She couldn't imagine how Zhan Mohan would react if he knew about her bold actions just now.
"Alright then, Madam, please rest for a while. I'll go and prepare those documents."
"Go ahead," Wei Yumeng nodded.
After Fang Xun left, Wei Yumeng took out her phone, wanting to know how things were going on Zhan Mohan's end.
"Hello? Mohan?"
Zhan Mohan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Wei Yumeng's voice. "What's wrong, Yumeng?"
Whether it was Wei Yumeng's imagination or not, she felt that Zhan Mohan's voice sounded tired, even hoarse.
"Mohan, is the situation on your side very serious?"
Zhan Mohan took a deep breath, trying his best to sound relaxed. "It is indeed a bit troublesome, but fortunately, it's not too difficult to handle."
But at that moment, Wei Yumeng still heard sounds coming from Zhan Mohan's side.
"Arrest that unscrupulous boss and make him pay for my husband's life!"
"A life for a life! You can't escape!"
"All of you back off! This is not a place for you to mess around."
"Mohan, is it really alright?" Wei Yumeng's voice trembled. Just imagining the scene, she knew how terrifying it must be there.
"It's really nothing. I plan to explain the situation to the families of the victims later and offer them some compensation."
As soon as Zhan Mohan finished speaking, there was a sound of something crashing.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
"Smash it all! People like this shouldn't be alive!"
Wei Yumeng's heart skipped a beat. Before she could say anything, Zhan Mohan hung up the phone.
"Mohan... what exactly happened?" Wei Yumeng worriedly called again, but this time Zhan Mohan did not answer.
Zhan Mohan would not answer. He couldn't let Wei Yumeng know about the situation here; it would only make her worry.
The information originally given to him stated that there were only a few victims, but upon arriving here, he realized that everything was much more serious than imagined.
During the project, the other party had used Zhan Corporation's funds for some other illegal projects and had gathered them under the guise of work.
During the day, they were ordinary construction workers, and at night, they were made to do those unsavory things.
And the deceased were precisely because the other party had cut corners in the project, leading to the collapse of the building.
As for the cause of death for some of the others, he had not yet figured it out, and it was possible he never would.
Zhan Mohan knew that he had encountered an unprecedented crisis, one that might even drag down the entire Zhan Corporation.
Those illegal black projects were not something that could be easily resolved.
Thinking of this, the faces of his children and Wei Yumeng appeared in Zhan Mohan's mind. No matter what, he had to ensure his family's safety and protect their home.
