Kai listened to Wei Yumeng's words but didn't know what to say.
It was true that his choice would bring relief to Wei Yumeng's family, but no matter what he did now, Catherine would ultimately be punished, and it was only a matter of how severe the punishment would be.
"Let me think about it again," Kai finally said. He couldn't give Wei Yumeng an immediate answer.
Wei Yumeng also knew that her aggressive questioning wouldn't yield any hopeful answers.
"Okay, think it through carefully. We'll wait for you."
Wei Yumeng and Zhan Mohan left the police station, but their hearts were not at ease. She didn't know what choice Kai would ultimately make, and they had done all they could.
To ensure Wei Yumeng's safety, Zhan Mohan had Fang Xun accompany her in the following days.
Perhaps because of this protection, they didn't encounter any trouble for a while, which even made them feel a sense of relaxation.
Wei Yumeng speculated that it was likely because Zhan Jinzhi had recorded the man's appearance, and the police had already begun their investigation, which was why Catherine couldn't proceed with her plans with peace of mind.
After all, this man was different from Kai. If he were caught, he might even implicate Catherine. By then, she would have paid the price she deserved without Wei Yumeng and Zhan Mohan having to lift a finger.
Because of this, Wei Yumeng and Zhan Mohan could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
After repeated confirmations from them, Fang Xun returned to his post.
Perhaps this matter had come to an end. Zhan Mohan would occasionally inquire about the police investigation, but since the matter was already under investigation, he hoped even more that Wei Yumeng and the children could relax.
Thinking back, during this period, the entire family had been on high alert due to Catherine, and even the two children looked nervous all day long.
So, Zhan Mohan decided to let the whole family relax.
Wei Yumeng glanced at the time and found it a bit strange. The situation had been sensitive lately, so Zhan Mohan always came home early. But today, an hour had already passed.
Now, even the two children were starting to worry.
"Mommy, why isn't Daddy back yet?" Zhan Shiqing, having personally experienced the terrifying events, couldn't help but think of the worst.
Zhan Jinzhi also looked anxious, sitting beside them and watching the clock tick by.
Finally, they received a call from Zhan Mohan.
"Mohan, why aren't you back yet? Are you delayed by something?" Wei Yumeng asked urgently.
Zhan Mohan's voice sounded weary, "I'm sorry, today's work was unexpectedly troublesome. I also have to attend a very important event later, so I'll have to eat out tonight. I've already asked Fang Xun to pick you up. Please get ready."
"Okay, I understand."
Wei Yumeng finally felt relieved.
A short while later, Fang Xun's car arrived. "Madam, if you're ready, let's go."
Wei Yumeng nodded and got into the car with the two children.
Although she was curious about the destination along the way, Fang Xun's attitude was strange.
"Madam, you'll know when you arrive."
Wei Yumeng knew Fang Xun wouldn't tell her, so she stopped asking.
Finally, the car stopped.
Wei Yumeng looked around. It seemed to be a landscaped park, but she remembered it was still under construction.
Even though it was still under construction, it had already become the most anticipated project in the city due to its promotion. This was because it almost perfectly recreated a Western royal European architectural garden.
It had now steadily ranked first among the most anticipated romantic dating spots.
Indeed, led by Fang Xun, they walked along a path lined with cherry blossoms. Compared to the West, it was more like a scene from an anime. As the wind blew, petals drifted down, making it incredibly romantic.
"Mommy, it's so beautiful here!" Zhan Shiqing walked ahead excitedly, twirling around happily.
Wei Yumeng also reached out to catch a falling petal, feeling the tension in her heart subtly ease.
Walking a bit further, it looked like they were about to reach the next section, but Fang Xun stopped.
"Madam, from here on, you'll need to go in by yourself."
Wei Yumeng still had many questions, but Fang Xun always followed Zhan Mohan's orders, so she wasn't too worried about anything going wrong.
After Fang Xun left, Wei Yumeng led the two children forward.
Suddenly, the scenery opened up before them. In front of them, roses were arranged in the shape of a heart. As they walked forward, the fountain within the heart began to dance to the music, forming a giant water screen.
And on the water screen played various photos of their family.
Beside it, a path was outlined with flowers and candles, leading to a European-style pavilion on one side, which was also meticulously decorated with beautiful things.
Zhan Mohan emerged from the pavilion and walked directly towards Wei Yumeng.
Zhan Mohan's eyes were full of tenderness. As he reached Wei Yumeng, he knelt on one knee and presented her with the flowers in his hand.
Wei Yumeng was so stunned by the scene that she couldn't speak. It turned out that what Zhan Mohan had said on the phone earlier was a lie, all to give her a surprise.
"Do you like it?" Zhan Mohan asked.
Wei Yumeng took the flowers and threw herself into Zhan Mohan's arms.
"Of course, I do. I like it here, I like these flowers, and most of all, I like you."
After Wei Yumeng said this excitedly, she blushed. How long had it been since she had so directly expressed her feelings to Zhan Mohan?
Zhan Mohan chuckled and nodded, "Mm, me too."
Seeing their loving parents, the two children couldn't help but exchange smiles.
"By the way, when did you set this up?" Wei Yumeng asked curiously.
"I booked the venue a week ago."
Wei Yumeng was surprised that Zhan Mohan had prepared for so long, yet she hadn't prepared anything.
After thinking for a moment, she leaned forward and lightly kissed Zhan Mohan on the cheek.
But Zhan Mohan raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of amusement as he looked at her.
Wei Yumeng coughed lightly. She knew what Zhan Mohan meant. A kiss on the cheek was hardly enough, was it?
Wei Yumeng instinctively glanced at the children, who immediately covered their eyes.
She looked back at Zhan Mohan, finally stood on tiptoe, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed his lips.
Just as she intended to pull away after a brief kiss, Zhan Mohan cupped the back of her head and took control of the kiss.
The kiss lasted for a long time, until Wei Yumeng felt like she could barely breathe. Zhan Mohan finally released her, but his arm around her didn't loosen.
In the midst of this harmonious family scene, no one noticed a dark shadow stealthily entering.
