Recently, due to this matter, Mu Linjing visited Wei Yumeng's home even more frequently.
Her complexion worsened day by day, and no matter how Wei Yumeng comforted her, it seemed to be of no use.
There was also no news from Zhan Mohan; he was so busy that he couldn't even return home.
Seeing Mu Linjing like this, Wei Yumeng felt even more distressed, so she decided to take her out for a stroll.
After informing Zhan Mohan, she went out with Mu Linjing.
This scene felt very familiar to Wei Yumeng. It was just that back then, she was the one who needed companionship, and this time, it had become Mu Linjing.
It was truly a turn of fortune.
Although Wei Yumeng's company helped, Mu Linjing's mood improved quite a bit.
"Linjing, do you remember? Before, when I encountered that kind of thing and had psychological problems, you brought me here."
Upon hearing Wei Yumeng's words, Mu Linjing also recalled that at that time, Wei Yumeng was suspected of having delusional disorder, and it was she who suggested Wei Yumeng go out for a walk. However, what happened afterward had exceeded her plans.
Mu Linjing never expected that there would be a day when Wei Yumeng would take her out to relax.
"Yumeng, do you think this matter can really be resolved safely?" Mu Linjing still felt uncertain.
This was also Zhan Yichen's first time encountering such a situation, and the first problem was so severe. How could she feel at ease?
Wei Yumeng did not answer her question directly but instead asked her, "Then do you believe in Yichen's ability?"
Mu Linjing's answer was naturally affirmative.
Wei Yumeng then asked her, "Then do you think Yichen would do such a thing?"
"I don't believe it," Mu Linjing nodded.
"Then you should believe in the person you trust, right? You told me this before, didn't you? Why can't you do it yourself?"
However, Mu Linjing still couldn't lift her spirits, "I understand what you're saying, but it's not that easy to do."
Just then, Wei Yumeng abruptly turned her head. A moment ago, she had felt a sharp gaze directed towards them.
The feeling even sent a shiver down her spine.
Wei Yumeng felt that the owner of the gaze was definitely not well-intentioned.
For safety's sake, she took out her phone and sent the situation to Zhan Mohan.
Mu Linjing, on the other hand, did not feel the gaze and didn't understand what was wrong with Wei Yumeng.
Wei Yumeng did not intend to tell Mu Linjing about her feelings, as she was already anxious enough.
Now, even Wei Yumeng felt that the matter concerning the overseas branch of the Zhan Group might be more serious than they had imagined.
She wanted to help Zhan Mohan but didn't know where to start.
For the next half of the day, Wei Yumeng remained cautious. She felt that the other party was not coming with good intentions and could not afford to relax her guard at this time.
However, she did not encounter such a situation again.
Only after sending Mu Linjing home did Wei Yumeng breathe a sigh of relief.
When Wei Yumeng returned home, Zhan Mohan was already back.
He hadn't been home for three days, and although he was back today, he looked unwell.
The usually spirited him was now covered in stubble, looking dejected.
"Mohan, is this matter very difficult to handle?" Wei Yumeng asked.
Zhan Mohan pulled her into his arms and held her tightly, "Mm."
Although Zhan Mohan's tone was light, as usual, Wei Yumeng could still sense his dejection.
"What's wrong?" Wei Yumeng asked softly, "If you're really in trouble, I hope you can tell me."
Zhan Mohan held her tighter, "I'm afraid we can't keep the overseas branch."
Wei Yumeng was also shocked. This was a very serious matter for the entire Zhan Group.
It was also the biggest mistake made by the Zhan Group to date.
"Although I've already asked Fang Xun to investigate, the other party was thorough, and we haven't found any useful information yet."
Zhan Mohan's tone was full of disappointment, "If we want to quell this matter now, only by having Yichen take all the responsibility can we save the Zhan Group."
Wei Yumeng now completely understood why Zhan Mohan was in such a bad mood.
He wasn't worried about the overseas branch, but for Zhan Yichen.
From the current situation, Zhan Mohan had clearly chosen to protect Zhan Yichen and sacrifice the entire overseas branch.
But no matter which choice he made, it would be a matter with endless repercussions for Zhan Mohan.
Wei Yumeng felt even more helpless. She wished she could help Zhan Mohan at this moment.
This night was probably a rare moment of rest amidst Zhan Mohan's busy schedule. The next day, he returned to his busy work.
However, this time, Zhan Mohan began to share the progress of his work with Wei Yumeng.
It was then that Wei Yumeng learned that Zhan Yichen's situation was even worse than they had imagined.
Initially, the bribery by Zhan Yichen was only at the suspicion stage. However, the police there arrested officials who had accepted bribes, and the official personally admitted that Zhan Yichen had bribed him.
Not only was there eyewitness testimony, but the financial transactions between them were also clearly documented in black and white, with Zhan Yichen's signature on them.
Zhan Mohan managed to contact Zhan Yichen through connections.
Zhan Yichen was very certain that he had not done any of these things but had no way to prove his innocence.
The matter had not only spread within country N but was also reported in the domestic economic news. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
The Zhan Group was suddenly thrust into the spotlight.
"Mr. Zhan, we cannot do this!"
Zhan Mohan looked at the shareholder before him with a cold expression.
"I don't need you to tell me what to do."
But the other party did not give up, "Mr. Zhan, we put a lot of effort into establishing the overseas branch of the Zhan Group, and the current investment is astronomical. You cannot exchange a part of the company for your brother who made a mistake!"
"This was not his doing."
"Mr. Zhan, I've always considered you a very rational person who separates personal and professional matters. How can you make such a choice now?"
Zhan Mohan was indifferent, "This Zhan Corporation belongs to the Zhan family. Is there any problem with me using something that originally belonged to my Zhan family to exchange for my brother?"
"Mr. Zhan, are you saying that you don't value people like us who have truly dedicated ourselves to the company?"
Zhan Mohan rubbed his temples with a headache. When he made this choice, he already knew what kind of situation he would encounter, and this time, he would not back down.
Seeing that Zhan Mohan was unlikely to listen to him, the shareholder directly threatened him.
"Mr. Zhan, if you insist on doing this, don't blame me for turning my back on you!"
