"Mo Han... Mo Han!"
Just as Zhan Mohan arrived at the hospital room door, he heard Wei Yumeng's voice from inside.
He quickly opened the door and walked in.
"I'm here, Yumeng, it's alright now," Zhan Mohan said, holding Wei Yumeng in his arms.
Wei Yumeng cried as she spoke to Zhan Mohan, "Mo Han, I just had a dream about our baby. He asked me why we didn't want him, why we had to let him die?"
Hearing this, Zhan Mohan could only hold Wei Yumeng tighter.
"Yumeng, these things were beyond our control. None of this is your fault. Please, don't think about it anymore, okay?" Zhan Mohan could only offer comforting words, unable to do anything else.
Wei Yumeng clutched Zhan Mohan's clothes tightly, weeping continuously.
Zhan Mohan's heart ached, but he had no other recourse. At this moment, all he could do was wait for Wei Yumeng to slowly come to terms with it.
"Yumeng, we've found the person who hit you. He will pay for his actions. I will avenge you and our baby. Rest assured, everything will get better."
Wei Yumeng heard this and looked up at Zhan Mohan, "You found that person?"
Zhan Mohan nodded, "Yes, he's an intern doctor at this hospital."
Just then, fragments of the incident flashed through Wei Yumeng's mind.
A team of paramedics had just arrived from outside. She remembered the injured person was barely breathing, and the doctors seemed very anxious.
She knew she should have dodged, but for some reason, she suddenly felt dizzy and couldn't react in time.
"Mo Han, what do you plan to do with him?" Wei Yumeng asked.
Zhan Mohan said, "Rest assured, I won't do anything out of line. I will sue him and demand compensation through the normal legal process, and then make him leave Pengcheng."
Hearing this decision, Wei Yumeng's heart skipped a beat.
She was indeed heartbroken by the current situation and hated the person who caused her to lose her child, but this matter wasn't entirely the other person's fault.
"Can I see him?" Wei Yumeng suddenly asked.
Zhan Mohan frowned. He didn't plan to agree. What if Wei Yumeng suffered another blow?
Wei Yumeng seemed to sense Zhan Mohan's thoughts and comforted him, "You don't need to worry about me. I just want to see what kind of person he is, and I want to know if he truly knows he did wrong."
Finally, Zhan Mohan nodded, "Alright, but I have one condition: I will go with you."
Wei Yumeng nodded.
Not long after, Zhan Yichen and Mu Linjing brought Qin Xing to the ward.
When Qin Xing saw Wei Yumeng, his eyes were filled with regret and apology.
Mu Linjing looked at Wei Yumeng with concern, "Yumeng, how are you feeling? Are you really alright?"
Wei Yumeng took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress her emotions, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I haven't reached the point of losing my sanity."
As she said this, Wei Yumeng tightened her hand clasped in front of her chest.
She did want to avenge her baby, but she also knew what the right course of action was.
Zhan Yichen signaled to the two of them, and then he and Mu Linjing left first.
In the hallway, Mu Linjing was still worried, "Yichen, what will Yumeng do?"
Zhan Yichen shook his head, "I don't know. But no matter what choice my sister-in-law makes in the end, we should respect it."
Zhan Yichen recalled how he had almost laid hands on Qin Xing just now.
In the ward, Qin Xing kept his head down, not daring to look at Wei Yumeng, while Wei Yumeng stared intently at him.
"You look very young. Did you just graduate?" Wei Yumeng's tone was calm, making her sound nothing like someone seeking retribution.
Qin Xing's heart stirred. Everyone had been blaming him, yet this woman was speaking to him so calmly, even though he had done such a thing.
"Yes, I... I only recently graduated from school."
"Then why did you decide to work at this hospital?" Wei Yumeng asked a seemingly unrelated question.
Qin Xing thought for a moment and said, "I went to many hospitals, but they all rejected me for lack of experience. Only Director Vinson, considering my family situation, was willing to keep me."
Hearing this, Wei Yumeng suddenly understood. Qin Xing's situation might not be good, and Vinson had kept him precisely because of that.
"What happened in your family?" Wei Yumeng asked.
"My father fell ill and needed a lot of money. I... I tried hard to find a job to earn money to treat him. I was afraid that after I started working here, Dr. Vinson would also take on my father's case. I thought..." Qin Xing's voice choked up. "Madam, I know this is all my fault, but I... I can't lose this job, and I don't have the money to leave here..."
Qin Xing spoke boldly. He felt that although Zhan Mohan's tone had been firm earlier, and even though Zhan Mohan was present now, he hadn't spoken, allowing Wei Yumeng to question him. He felt there might still be room for negotiation.
However, Wei Yumeng's next words poured cold water on him.
"Indeed, if it were any other time, hearing about your situation would have softened my heart. But this time, you caused the death of my child. How do you plan to settle this debt?"
Qin Xing trembled again upon hearing this. Had he really not escaped today?
"However..." Wei Yumeng suddenly changed the subject, "There are many ways to compensate. It doesn't necessarily have to be with money. Given your current situation, even if we demanded compensation from you, you probably wouldn't be able to afford it, right?"
Qin Xing nodded. He truly had no money for compensation.
"How about this? Since you caused me to be in this state, I want you to take care of me while I'm in the hospital. Of course, there's also an old man upstairs, who is also family, and you'll be taking care of him too."
Wei Yumeng then turned to Zhan Mohan and said, "Mo Han, having someone to look after Grandpa would be good."
Zhan Mohan looked at Wei Yumeng, his eyes filled with heartache. At a time like this, Wei Yumeng was still thinking of Old Master Zhan.
Although he had guessed that Wei Yumeng might not have the heart to punish Qin Xing directly, he hadn't expected her to find such a solution.
Qin Xing immediately thanked Wei Yumeng gratefully, "Thank you, Madam. I... I will take good care of you both. Even if I have to follow you forever as compensation, I will spare no effort."
Wei Yumeng looked at Qin Xing again, "There's one thing I hope you don't misunderstand. While I'm giving you this path, it doesn't mean I forgive you. You should also remember that some things are not easily forgiven."
These words made Qin Xing stiffen again, unable to speak.
