After Wei Yumeng left the hotel, she went straight to Zhan's Group.
Now she couldn't afford to waste a moment. The sooner the arrangements were made, the sooner they could find the person Vinson was looking for.
This would also be a good thing for Zhan Mohan.
"Fang Xun, please take a good look at these documents. I need your help to find someone."
Fang Xun didn't question Wei Yumeng's reasons for doing this and immediately began investigating on the computer.
Several of the place names were clearly marked by Vinson. Perhaps by clarifying those locations, they would be closer to their target.
Indeed, Fang Xun found something after a short while.
"Madam, the place names on these documents are indeed all in Pengcheng, but they are rather remote compared to the city center," Fang Xun said, frowning. "This Fengxing County is on the edge of Pengcheng, and it's in a ravine. It will likely be difficult to even reach there."
Wei Yumeng had heard of this place. Some poverty alleviation projects had recently been set up there, which showed how dire the situation was.
Wei Yumeng thought for a moment and finally decided, "Fang Xun, how about this, you arrange for me to go there personally."
"Madam, I don't recommend you do that. The situation there is too harsh. You might not even have a place to stay once you get there."
But it was precisely because of the poor environment that Wei Yumeng wanted to go herself.
The harsher the environment, the more likely the people sent would falter, and even retreat due to the conditions. This would lead to some distortion in the information conveyed to them.
Wei Yumeng had no more time to waste waiting.
"I'm doing this for Mohan, and it's just a relatively backward village, not a dangerous place. Please help me."
Wei Yumeng looked at Fang Xun with sincerity, but Fang Xun still hesitated.
"Let her go."
At this moment, Zhan Yangyi's voice came from behind them.
"Since Yumeng has decided, all we can do is support her," Zhan Yangyi said, looking at Fang Xun. "You will make the arrangements for her now, of course, in my capacity as acting president of Zhan's Group."
Fang Xun had no choice but to comply immediately.
Zhan Yangyi looked at Wei Yumeng with a hint of helplessness. He knew that even if he didn't let Wei Yumeng go, she would probably find a way herself.
If something dangerous or unexpected were to happen then, it would be beyond control.
It was better to cooperate with her actions, at least everything would be within their grasp.
"Thank you, Big Brother," Wei Yumeng said gratefully.
Zhan Yangyi simply asked, "Are you doing this for Mohan too?"
Wei Yumeng nodded.
"Mm, I understand. You should go back and prepare now. Fang Xun's arrangements should be ready soon," Zhan Yangyi said, patting Wei Yumeng's head. "But remember one thing, if you encounter any trouble, you must notify us."
"I will," Wei Yumeng said firmly.
After bidding farewell to Zhan Yangyi, Wei Yumeng returned home. She entrusted the children's matters to the housekeeper and then felt at ease to prepare for her departure.
Based on the location provided by Fang Xun, Wei Yumeng had a certain understanding of Fengxing County.
Fengxing County was located on the outskirts of Pengcheng and situated on a mountain.
Due to the different geographical environment, the temperature there had a significant difference from Pengcheng, and transportation was inconvenient. She would likely have to climb the mountain to reach the village herself.
After preparing everything, Wei Yumeng went to see Zhan Mohan again.
She had expected that, given his previous condition, Zhan Mohan would not wake up. However, when she arrived, she saw Zhan Mohan looking at her.
"Mohan, you're awake?" Wei Yumeng was somewhat surprised.
Zhan Mohan frowned. "I had a dream. I dreamt you were going to a dangerous place, so I woke up."
Wei Yumeng was startled. Could this be telepathy?
"Yumeng, don't forget what you promised me," Zhan Mohan reminded her again.
Wei Yumeng nodded. "I've already promised you, and I won't go back on my word."
Hearing this, Zhan Mohan breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't force yourself. More than me, I hope you can live a happy life."
"But without you, how can I live a happy life?" Wei Yumeng couldn't help but say.
"I'm sorry..." This was all Zhan Mohan could say now.
He couldn't make any more promises to Wei Yumeng. The unknown future might shatter all his promises.
This helplessness made Zhan Mohan somewhat agitated. He hated his current inability to do anything.
At times like this, he should have been Wei Yumeng's pillar of support.
Zhan Mohan clenched his fists, his fingernails digging into his palms.
Wei Yumeng noticed his emotions and quickly stopped him, taking his hand.
"Mohan, don't be like this. Things aren't that bad. Everything will get better."
As she spoke, Wei Yumeng hugged Zhan Mohan, gently stroking his back to comfort him.
After a while, Zhan Mohan became still again.
Wei Yumeng carefully laid Zhan Mohan back on the bed. "Mohan, I'll be back."
With a heavy heart, she finally turned and left.
Wei Yumeng got into the vehicle arranged by Fang Xun, but it could only take her to the foot of the mountain. The rest of the journey would have to be done on her own.
Wei Yumeng had initially thought that she didn't slack off on her daily exercises, so climbing a mountain shouldn't be too difficult.
However, when she arrived, she realized that nothing was that simple.
With great difficulty, she managed to find the so-called mountain path by following the people living at the foot of the mountain.
This so-called path was not like a man-made road, but rather a small trail formed by people walking on it.
But this small trail was not safe. In some places, the slope was steep, and it was slippery. A slight misstep could send one falling directly down.
Several locals looked at Wei Yumeng with surprise.
"Girl, are you planning to go up the mountain by yourself?"
Wei Yumeng nodded. "I need to go to Fengxing County."
"I advise you not to. It's difficult for us locals to get up there, let alone someone from the city like you. It might take three days and two nights just to get up, and it gets very cold at night, unbearable. This path is too dangerous."
"But I have a reason, and I must go," Wei Yumeng insisted on continuing.
The person looked at Wei Yumeng and sighed. "How about this, I'll give you our family's phone number. If you encounter any problems, call me, and I'll have my son come to help you."
Wei Yumeng felt a warmth in her heart. At least the people here were still simple and kind.
Wei Yumeng, who had been managing relatively well during the initial ascent, soon had to use her hands and feet to climb.
In fact, if it weren't for the occasional passers-by who helped her, her progress would have been even slower.
