Chapter 1223 Survivors

When Mu Linjing learned of everything that had happened on Wei Yumeng's side through a video call, she was also very sad.

Wei Yumeng was still somewhat shaken: "If it weren't for Ah Yu persuading Grandpa back then, I was really afraid they would force me to abort the child. No matter what, I wouldn't abort Mo Han's child."

"Yumeng..." Mu Linjing looked sad: "Haven't you considered that Director Chai would really do that? If... I mean if Brother really doesn't come back..."

Wei Yumeng shook her head: "Then I won't live by relying on others, and Ah Yu is a good child, he will always have his own life."

Hearing this, Mu Linjing felt even more helpless. Perhaps the whole world could see that Chai Yanyu's feelings for Wei Yumeng had long surpassed that little bit.

But Wei Yumeng herself didn't know, or pretended not to know?

"By the way, Linjing, your side... is there still no news about Yichen?" Wei Yumeng's mood also sank as she remembered this.

Mu Linjing shook her head: "Although we've mobilized many people to look for him, there's still no news..."

Before she could finish speaking, her phone rang.

"Yumeng, I'm taking a call." Mu Linjing greeted Wei Yumeng before answering the phone.

Wei Yumeng couldn't hear what was being said on Mu Linjing's end, only saw her expression change significantly.

From initial low spirits to disbelief, and finally tears of excitement flowed.

Mu Linjing hung up the phone, trying to calm herself, but still couldn't help it.

She could only choke back her sobs and say to Wei Yumeng, "Yumeng, they said... they said Yichen has been found..."

She didn't remember what she said next. Her mind was filled with the desire to see Zhan Yichen.

And now she was already in a car heading to her destination.

In the call just now, the other party stated that Zhan Yichen had been rescued on the street, but his condition was not good, and he was injured, so he had been sent to the hospital.

As soon as she got out of the car, Mu Linjing rushed impatiently to Zhan Yichen's ward.

"Yichen!"

She pushed open the ward door and indeed, Zhan Yichen was lying on the bed.

"Doctor, how is he?"

"The injuries on the patient have been treated, there are no major problems, he should wake up after sleeping for a while."

Hearing this, Mu Linjing breathed a sigh of relief.

She thanked the doctor repeatedly before sitting down to accompany Zhan Yichen.

"Yichen..." Mu Linjing took Zhan Yichen's hand and placed it on her cheek: "That's great, you're finally back."

When Zhan Yichen woke up, all he saw was a white ceiling.

He also felt a warmth tightly entwined with his hand.

He then turned his head and saw Mu Linjing sleeping by the bed.

Zhan Yichen felt as if a lifetime had passed. He had truly almost thought he would never see Mu Linjing again.

He reached out with his other hand to touch Mu Linjing's hair, but with a slight movement, Mu Linjing woke up abruptly.

When she saw the awakened Zhan Yichen, she couldn't help but cry: "Yichen, you're finally awake..."

Zhan Yichen looked distressed and wanted to hug Mu Linjing, but he couldn't move at all.

"Don't move around, tell me what you want to eat or drink, and I'll get it for you."

But Zhan Yichen reached out and held her hand: "Don't bother, I don't want anything, I want you to stay with me."

Mu Linjing sat down again: "Who hurt you so badly?"

Zhan Yichen said casually: "Going to that kind of place, getting injured is nothing."

But Mu Linjing didn't think so. If she knew what had happened, she would have rushed to take revenge.

"By the way, can you call Big Brother for me? Or sister-in-law."

Mu Linjing nodded. Since Zhan Yichen had escaped from that place, perhaps he had some other discoveries and wanted to tell others.

Mu Linjing first called Zhan Yangyi, but Zhan Yangyi suggested that everyone hold a group meeting to sort things out.

So Mu Linjing arranged for a laptop to be brought over, and then they officially began their call.

When Zhan Yichen saw Wei Yumeng in the hospital through the video call, he was startled: "Sister-in-law, why are you in the hospital too?"

Wei Yumeng shook her head: "I'm fine, you tell me about your situation first."

Zhan Yichen then said: "I did go there, and through connections, I stayed there for a few days trying to find news of my brother, but..."

He frowned as he spoke: "Although I found many of my brother's movements, I couldn't find him there at all, until I was discovered later."

Hearing this, Wei Yumeng couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you encounter that kind of thing when you went?"

"That kind of thing?" Zhan Yichen didn't understand at all.

Chai Yanyu then explained: "Actually, after you went in, we also investigated that place. They had already completely sealed off that area, and there were even rumors that outsiders would be sacrificed by them."

Zhan Yangyi also nodded: "Yes, we also found this information."

Zhan Yichen understood: "I heard about this too, but this can only be considered a man-made rumor."

Chai Yanyu immediately understood: "You mean, someone doesn't want people to approach there, so they deliberately spread it?"

"Yes," Zhan Yichen continued, "According to my observations during this period, the deaths mentioned in the rumors are indeed true, but as you know, that place has many people with complicated identities, so they thought the internal deaths might be the work of outsiders seeking revenge. Therefore, to stop outsiders from approaching there, they deliberately spread such rumors."

Hearing this, Wei Yumeng and the other two felt a little speechless. Although existence justifies itself, even without such rumors, ordinary people wouldn't go to such a dangerous place.

"Although this is a rumor, the situation there is indeed very chaotic. It has almost split into two factions. Some people believe that the incidents there were caused by outsiders, while others believe there is a traitor among them."

Zhan Yichen shrugged as he spoke: "Outsiders think that everyone living there is a so-called villain, but internally, they seemed quite united."

Mu Linjing was a little displeased: "Did you get yourself into this state to mediate their relationship?"

"How is that possible? I wanted to find Big Brother, but Big Brother's whereabouts appeared in both factions. Blending in during this special period was inevitably dangerous," Zhan Yichen said with some helplessness.
