Zhan Mohan saw the topic end, and his hands became restless again.
"Wait!" Wei Yumeng almost cried out, as Zhan Mohan's hand had just brushed past a sensitive spot.
"Then what did you find out today?"
Zhan Mohan knew she was deliberately trying to change the subject, but he wasn't annoyed. He looked at her with good nature, his eyes filled only with tenderness.
"Today I went to see Wang Hua, and he told me a lot about that person's characteristics, and gender."
"It's a man?" Wei Yumeng asked without any surprise.
"Yes, it's a man, but he couldn't describe his appearance. The other party was disguised every time they met."
Wei Yumeng, however, looked thoughtful. After a while, she said, "Is that person Kai?"
"I have some suspicions too, but again, we can't just say it's him without substantial evidence. However, Wang Hua also gave me another clue."
"What clue?" Wei Yumeng was full of curiosity, looking like she really wanted to know, her eyes wide as she looked at Zhan Mohan.
Seeing her like this, Zhan Mohan wasn't in a hurry anymore. He just hugged her tighter.
"I'll tell you when I have the results."
Seeing the teasing look in Zhan Mohan's eyes, Wei Yumeng became a little unhappy. Zhan Mohan was clearly doing it on purpose.
She suddenly seized the opportunity and leaned in to kiss Zhan Mohan. "Mohan, just tell me."
However, Zhan Mohan suddenly rolled over and pinned her down. "I can tell you, but only after we're done with this."
After all the preparations were made, Catherine continued to play the role of a good girl at home.
Now that the three shareholders had agreed to her proposal, she had nothing to worry about. As long as there was an appropriate time, and they presented their proposal, it should be foolproof.
But when exactly to do it was a very important matter. The timing could not be too early or too late.
Originally, her plan was to use her current depression to propose taking over as CEO. After all, during this period, no one in the family would oppose her, as they would have to consider her condition.
But now, she wondered if anyone would agree to let a depressed person take over the company.
Given her current situation, even if Feng Zhenhua temporarily agreed to let her take the position, he wouldn't give her real power due to her depression.
If she took the position then, it would only lead to more trouble, as without real power, she wouldn't be able to provide the corresponding rewards to the other shareholders.
Therefore, in this situation, her first priority was to become CEO, and her second priority was to find a project that would allow her to utilize her strengths. This way, no one would doubt her ability, and she could secure her position.
So now she needed to find a project that could be taken over, and it had to be foolproof.
"Linlin, Linlin, it's time to eat."
Song Lijun knocked on Catherine's door with some concern. Catherine hadn't left her room since she returned yesterday.
Compared to her always locking herself in her room, Song Lijun hoped Catherine would go out more, as it would help to relieve her mood.
Song Lijun had initially thought that, as before, Catherine wouldn't respond to her. She didn't expect Catherine to open the door after a while.
"I know, Mom, I'll be right there."
Song Lijun let out a sigh of relief.
A while later, Catherine sat obediently at the dining table and began to eat.
"Linlin, judging by your appearance, you seem to have a better complexion today?"
Catherine nodded slightly. "Because I've thought through some things."
Hearing this, Song Lijun was somewhat relieved. Wasn't depression a heart condition? Simply put, it was because some things couldn't be figured out in one's heart, which eventually made people depressed. It was a good thing that Catherine had figured some things out.
"Instead of letting myself continue like this, it's better to actively do something."
"Whatever you want to do, Mom will support you."
Catherine looked at Song Lijun and said seriously, "Mom, I want to do something for the company. Whether it's a big project or a small project, as long as I can help, I feel like my life has some meaning."
As Catherine spoke, her gaze dimmed again. "No, I probably can't do anything well, and I can't do anything. I'm not capable..."
Seeing Catherine's look as if she was about to have an episode, Song Lijun immediately said, "Okay, Mom promises you. Linlin, Mom has always believed in your abilities. Don't rush to deny yourself. Linlin is always the best in my heart."
She said this and, with a heartache, hugged Catherine.
Catherine, however, in Song Lijun's arms, revealed a smile of success.
As soon as Feng Zhenhua arrived home, he saw Song Lijun waiting for him in the living room with a serious expression.
"What's wrong? Is Linlin in trouble again?"
Song Lijun shook her head. "No, I have something to discuss with you today, and it's also about Linlin."
Feng Zhenhua nodded and sat on the sofa. "Go ahead."
"Are there any projects in the company that Linlin can try? No matter how small, she's been denying her life value, so I thought it might be important to give her something to do so she can feel the value of her life."
Feng Zhenhua frowned. His perspective was different from Song Lijun's. It was not wrong for Song Lijun to prioritize her child, but for a company, every project was crucial, and it wasn't something that could be done as child's play.
"Did Linlin propose it herself?"
Song Lijun had initially wanted to take the blame herself, but she didn't expect Feng Zhenhua to see through it.
"Yes, Linlin proposed it, but I don't think it's a bad thing. Moreover, it can allow her to gain experience in work. There's nothing wrong with it."
But Feng Zhenhua couldn't be so sentimental. There were some things he didn't say, but it didn't mean he didn't care or know. Song Lijun might not know what Catherine was thinking, but Feng Zhenhua understood her to some extent.
He wasn't guarding against Catherine, but rather worried that her haste would only make everything worse.
Seeing Feng Zhenhua's silence, Song Lijun became a little anxious. "Zhenhua, just give her a chance. No matter what it is, let her try first, okay?"
Seeing Song Lijun like this, Feng Zhenhua finally let out a sigh. "Alright, I'll consider it. I'll go to the company tomorrow and see if I can find something suitable for her to do."
Song Lijun finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you for your trouble. I cooked something delicious myself today, and we can eat it later."
Feng Zhenhua chuckled. It seemed that if he didn't agree, he wouldn't get any of this meal.
