Chapter 1197 The Safest Place

A while later, Zhan Mohan and the Zhou couple walked out of the conference room.

The Zhou couple's faces were grim, and their gazes towards Zhan Mohan were filled with awe.

"We've understood what President Zhan said. We will discipline our child properly when we get back," the Zhou father said.

The Zhou mother also sighed, "If we hadn't indulged him so much, he wouldn't have become so defiant."

As they spoke, they brought Zhou Shuai in front of Zhan Shiqing, "Apologize quickly."

Zhou Shuai still looked somewhat unconvinced, but he obediently lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry."

Zhan Shiqing, however, was still angry and didn't want to pay him any attention.

Yet, seeing Zhan Shiqing like this, Zhou Shuai felt a pang of discomfort.

"Zhan Shiqing, I actually did this just to get your attention. It's because you never paid any attention to me, so I..."

As he said this, he felt a sense of grievance.

Wei Yumeng felt a headache coming on. Zhou Shuai didn't seem to have genuine malice towards Zhan Shiqing; it was just that this child, being ignorant, chose such a method.

With the mediation of both parties, Zhan Mohan and Wei Yumeng would still compensate for Zhan Jinzhi's treatment costs for injuring Zhou Shuai. In return, the Zhou family would compensate Zhan Shiqing for her emotional distress.

This matter was thus peacefully resolved.

After this incident, Wei Yumeng became even more insistent on her previous idea of letting Zhan Shiqing rest at home for a period, to avoid similar incidents from happening again.

This time, Zhan Shiqing had no reason to refuse and had to obediently follow Wei Yumeng's arrangements.

To be safe, Wei Yumeng called Dr. Mo Yati again.

When Zhan Shiqing saw Mo Yati, she immediately broke into a wide smile.

"Dr. Mo! I've missed you so much."

Mo Yati smiled back at her, "Shi Qing, how have you been feeling these past few days?"

Zhan Shiqing felt a bit embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Dr. Mo. I've tried my best to follow your methods, but I still..."

Mo Yati stroked her head, "It's alright. These things can't be done overnight. We can take our time."

Wei Yumeng watched their affectionate interaction and, for some reason, felt a lot more relaxed.

She felt that Dr. Mo always gave off a very approachable and comfortable vibe, perhaps also due to his profession as a psychologist.

When Mo Yati was alone with Zhan Shiqing, he inquired again about what had happened.

Zhan Shiqing naturally told him everything.

Mo Yati asked softly, "What are your thoughts on this matter?"

"I think Zhou Shuai's actions were wrong, but I also know that no matter what happens to me, my brother, and my parents will always be on my side."

As Zhan Shiqing said this, a sense of happiness spread across her face.

Mo Yati nodded, "Yes, you're right. Your current situation is the safest. Your parents will not let anyone harm you."

Hearing this, Zhan Shiqing seemed to realize something and looked up at Mo Yati.

Mo Yati raised an eyebrow at her.

Zhan Shiqing also smiled, "I understand what you mean, Dr. Mo."

Dr. Mo smiled back at her, "Yes, Shi Qing is indeed a clever child."

Zhan Shiqing genuinely liked this Dr. Mo, although she had initially found him to be a scary adult.

But strangely, Dr. Mo always seemed to know her thoughts and would teach her how to act.

He was nothing like the psychologist she had imagined.

Although Wei Yumeng wanted to join Mo Yati and Zhan Shiqing's therapy session, seeing Zhan Shiqing emerge from the room with a much improved mood, she felt greatly relieved.

"Mom, I'm alright now. I truly know what I should do this time."

As she spoke, she gave Mo Yati a mysterious smile, and he returned it.

Wei Yumeng looked at them, feeling as though Zhan Shiqing had done something behind her back.

But she had no way to ask.

In the following days, Wei Yumeng constantly observed Zhan Shiqing's changes.

But she was astonished to find that Zhan Shiqing's condition had begun to improve. She no longer had nightmares at night and didn't even tremble with fear when she saw fire.

Although she had asked Zhan Shiqing if she was truly not scared anymore.

Zhan Shiqing replied, "I'm still a little scared, but I've learned how to make myself less scared."

Wei Yumeng felt a sense of relief and even more trust in Dr. Mo.

Everything seemed to be developing in a positive direction.

During this time, Mu Linjing and others would also visit the children from time to time.

"Little Shi Qing, do you really feel much better?" Mu Linjing still looked at Zhan Shiqing with some concern.

Zhan Shiqing gave Mu Linjing a bright smile, "Of course, Auntie. I'm really fine now. It's all thanks to Mom and Dad, Brother, and Dr. Mo!"

Hearing this, Mu Linjing said to Wei Yumeng, "Can you give me Dr. Mo's contact information? Maybe I'll need it someday."

Zhan Yichen said helplessly, "Forget it. Our child doesn't seem to need psychological counseling."

Chen Yutong also got the contact information from Wei Yumeng, thinking it might be useful one day.

Zhan Yangyi, however, was discussing something with Zhan Mohan.

"Since Shi Qing's condition has improved, why don't we take the child out for a walk?" Zhan Yangyi suggested, "I specifically asked someone to understand that relaxing oneself is also a very good form of treatment."

Zhan Mohan nodded, "That's a good idea. I'll have Fang Xun make the arrangements today."

Zhan Shiqing was overjoyed to hear they were going out, "I want to go out and play, and I want to invite Brother too."

Zhan Shiqing thought about how she had been resting at home recently while Zhan Jinzhi had to go to school every day, and felt truly sorry for him in her heart.

Wei Yumeng dotingly nodded, "Okay."

According to their plan, the whole family was going to go on an outing. The destination was even decided after consulting with Mo Yati.

However, a few days before their departure, both Wei Yumeng and Zhan Mohan received a call from Grandpa Zhan.

"You kept such a big matter about the child from me? Do you think I'm too old to manage you now?"

Wei Yumeng felt helpless hearing this. They hadn't told Grandpa Zhan simply because they didn't want him to worry about them.

"Grandpa, Shi Qing's condition has actually improved, so you don't need to worry."

"She's my granddaughter, how can I not worry? Bring the child to see me tomorrow."

Without giving Wei Yumeng a chance to retort, Grandpa Zhan directly hung up the phone.

Wei Yumeng felt helpless. It seemed they had no choice but to return to the Zhan family's old residence as per Grandpa Zhan's request.
