Wei Yumeng returned home and saw Zhan Mohan, but she didn't continue to inquire about Zhan Yangyi.
Although the matter was over, as Zhan Yichen had said, some things were not good even if they were brought into the open.
Since Zhan Mohan hadn't intended to tell her from the beginning, it was also to prevent her from getting involved.
Then she had no need to dwell on this matter any longer.
It was just that Wei Yumeng felt that Zhan Mohan's handsome face was becoming more and more pleasing to her eyes.
Zhan Mohan sensed Wei Yumeng's gaze and looked at her with some confusion, "Why are you always looking at me?"
"Mohan, thank you," Wei Yumeng suddenly said to Zhan Mohan.
Zhan Mohan didn't react for a moment, just stared blankly at Wei Yumeng.
Wei Yumeng simply said, "I'm saying this on behalf of my sister-in-law and elder brother."
Zhan Mohan's lips curved slightly, "Mm."
After this matter was concluded, as per Zhan Mohan's arrangement, he officially joined the Zhan Group and became a member of it.
"Big Brother, you really don't have to do this," Zhan Yichen felt uneasy.
According to Zhan Mohan's original plan, Zhan Yangyi could have directly taken the position of Project Director, but Zhan Yangyi insisted on starting from the bottom.
And Zhan Mohan had also agreed to this.
Zhan Yangyi sighed, "Don't worry, I have my reasons for choosing this. Although that incident is over, its impact has not disappeared. If my company had just gone bankrupt, and I immediately became a high-level executive of the Zhan Group, what would outsiders think? And perhaps even those within the Zhan Group wouldn't accept me."
Zhan Yangyi's words left Zhan Yichen completely unable to refute. Indeed, sometimes people were polite on the surface but might be saying something else behind their backs.
"Alright then, if you have any problems, you can still find us."
Zhan Yangyi nodded. He was already content with having such a life now.
And so, the Zhan family lived a relatively stable life.
Except for Old Master Zhan, who was still undergoing treatment in the hospital...
Zhan Mohan and the others frowned as they saw Old Master Zhan lying on the hospital bed.
Numerous unidentifiable medical instruments were attached to Old Master Zhan, and only with the help of these instruments could he sustain his life.
Although they had found so many experts before, it was regrettable that despite the experts' treatment and care, and their best efforts to extend Old Master Zhan's life and ensure he wouldn't die from illness, his condition now was such that he could only remain in bed.
Vincent looked at everyone, "We have done our best. Old Master's lifespan was already limited. With the current methods, he can live for some more time. However, this method might not be a good thing for him, and... his situation is probably nearing its end."
Wei Yumeng's heart ached. She could still remember when Old Master Zhan was strong and healthy, and would occasionally lose his temper with them. But now, a healthy person had fallen so quickly.
She seemed to feel what it was like to live solely relying on machines.
Was this kind of life truly good?
Just then, Old Master Zhan moved, and then opened his eyes.
"Grandpa," Zhan Yichen hurried over.
"You're here?" Old Master Zhan's voice was weak, almost inaudible.
Zhan Yichen nodded, "Yes, we're here. Grandpa, how have you been feeling these past few days?"
"What's good or bad about it? I can't die, but I can't go anywhere or do anything," Old Master Zhan's tone was still somewhat sad.
Hearing this, everyone fell silent. For a moment, they didn't know if what they were doing was truly for Old Master Zhan's good.
The group stayed with Old Master Zhan for a while longer, but the atmosphere remained somber. It wasn't until they were about to leave that Old Master Zhan called Chen Yutong to stay.
"Yutong, don't leave yet. I have something I want to talk to you about."
Chen Yutong was a little surprised. Although her relationship with Old Master Zhan had always been good, this was the first time he had asked to speak with her alone.
Zhan Yangyi saw that Chen Yutong seemed a bit lost and reached out to pat her shoulder, "It's alright, stay with Grandpa a little longer. I'll wait for you outside."
With that, he and the others left the ward.
Wei Yumeng took a few steps before turning back to glance. Honestly, she was curious about what Old Master Zhan would say to Chen Yutong at this moment.
For some reason, she had a bad feeling.
Only when they reached the corridor did Mu Linjing breathe a sigh of relief. The oppressive atmosphere had made her feel breathless.
"Is it really okay for Grandpa to continue like this?" she asked hesitantly.
Zhan Yichen didn't answer her.
Zhan Mohan's brow remained unrelaxed, as if he were deep in thought.
Wei Yumeng reached out and tugged at his sleeve. Zhan Mohan then slightly relaxed and turned to look at Wei Yumeng.
"Alright, you all go back. I'll stay here," Zhan Yangyi said to the others. "You've all worked a day, go back and get some rest."
Zhan Yichen nodded and pulled Mu Linjing, "Come on, don't think about it anymore, let's go back."
Mu Linjing had no choice but to follow him away.
Before Wei Yumeng left, she still said to Zhan Yangyi, "Big Brother, I'm a little worried about the situation inside. Please pay extra attention."
"Don't worry, I will."
Hearing this, Wei Yumeng finally relaxed and left with Zhan Mohan.
Zhan Mohan didn't say a word until they returned home.
Wei Yumeng knew that Zhan Mohan was feeling bad, so she didn't ask any more questions, just silently accompanied him.
She was very clear about how important Old Master Zhan was to Zhan Mohan.
After a long while, Zhan Mohan finally asked, "Yumeng, do you think we are doing the right thing?"
Zhan Mohan felt that he had never been so uncertain.
He had originally thought that as long as they tried, even if it meant letting Old Master Zhan live a little longer.
But now, even he felt that Old Master Zhan's condition was worse than death.
"I don't know, but none of us want Grandpa to leave so soon," Wei Yumeng said, clenching her fist. "We are just doing what we can and should do."
Even as she said this, she couldn't help but recall the scene in the ward.
However, she quickly shook off that uncomfortable feeling. "Mohan, don't think too much about it. It can't be a bad thing for Grandpa to live a little longer."
Zhan Mohan didn't answer Wei Yumeng, just remained silent with a serious expression.
Wei Yumeng reached out and held his hand. This was all she could do to comfort him now.
Zhan Mohan clasped Wei Yumeng's hand in return. This warmth made him feel much better.
