As Wei Yumeng returned home, she felt as though a long time had passed, and everything seemed subtly unfamiliar.
It hadn't been long since she believed she would never be able to return to this home again.
Initially, Wei Yumeng wanted to ask Mu Linjing and Zhan Yichen to stay for dinner, but they claimed they didn't want to be a third wheel and left.
After sending them off, Zhan Mohan impatiently pulled Wei Yumeng into his embrace.
However, Wei Yumeng remembered something: "Right, you said in the church that you had figured everything out, but I still don't know."
Zhan Mohan was somewhat helpless, knowing that Wei Yumeng would definitely ask about this. However, he did not want Wei Yumeng to know the story behind it at this moment.
On one hand, it concerned Zhan Yangyi, but it had little impact on Wei Yumeng. On the other hand, it naturally involved what Chai Yanyu had done for her. Although it turned out to be a misunderstanding in the end, it also showed Chai Yanyu's sincere feelings for Wei Yumeng.
How could he possibly let Wei Yumeng realize this?
With this thought, Zhan Mohan flipped over, pressing Wei Yumeng onto the sofa.
But Wei Yumeng had a look of seeing through him. She reached out to push against Zhan Mohan's chest: "Don't try to fool me. If you don't tell me, you won't get anywhere today. I am the victim in this matter, and I have the right to know the truth, and also..."
Wei Yumeng stopped mid-sentence, suddenly realizing: "Right, what about Grandpa? I promised him I'd give him an answer in seven days."
"You promised Grandpa that?" Zhan Mohan was taken aback.
"Grandpa insisted that I divorce you back then, so I had to resort to this. But I really didn't find anything afterward." Thinking of this, Wei Yumeng's eyes dimmed again.
"I'll explain to Grandpa myself. Don't you worry about it."
Wei Yumeng then nodded: "I hope Grandpa can understand us."
"He will. This isn't your fault," Zhan Mohan whispered in her ear.
"So, what exactly happened?" Wei Yumeng still took the opportunity to steer the conversation back.
Zhan Mohan was a bit helpless, realizing he had no choice but to tell her today. So he explained the whole matter to Wei Yumeng.
"So that's how it is..."
Wei Yumeng's expression was not good. She hadn't expected Chen Yutong to have changed so little, yet now, for Zhan Yangyi's sake, they were unable to do anything about her.
"I'm sorry," Zhan Mohan said again, instinctively holding Wei Yumeng tighter.
Wei Yumeng was a little confused: "I don't blame you anymore. No man could remain rational after seeing that scene."
"I'm not talking about that," Zhan Mohan shook his head. "As your husband, I couldn't give you a proper explanation for this matter, yet as Zhan Yangyi's brother, I have to do something for him."
Wei Yumeng looked at him sincerely: "I understand you in this matter. After all, your eldest brother is also my eldest brother, and I don't want him to be hurt by this again. However, I won't let Chen Yutong continue like this either."
"Mmm, when the time is right, I will tell Big Brother the truth," Zhan Mohan also said.
For a moment, the atmosphere between them was harmonious. Zhan Mohan began to get ideas again.
But Wei Yumeng stopped him again: "Wait!"
Zhan Mohan was a little dejected but still stopped what he was doing.
"You were unwilling to tell me at first, were you worried that I would be moved when I learned about what CEO Chai did?"
Zhan Mohan raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying.
"Actually, just as I believe nothing will happen between you and Chen Yutong, I do have a good impression of CEO Chai, but I only see him as a younger brother."
Hearing this, Zhan Mohan felt a pang of sympathy for Chai Yanyu.
"I will find some time to clarify everything with CEO Chai," Wei Yumeng said sincerely to Zhan Mohan.
Zhan Mohan nodded slightly: "Mmm."
The next day at noon, Wei Yumeng received various gifts from Grandpa Zhan, most of which she liked.
While she was still wondering, she received a call from Grandpa Zhan: "Yumeng, what happened before was my fault. I apologize. Mohan has explained everything to me. From now on, I, this old man, will no longer interfere in your affairs."
"Grandpa, you're too kind. It's normal not to be clear under those circumstances. Please take care of your health."
"I'm fine. My only worry is you two. As long as you are well, this old man is also well."
Wei Yumeng listened to Grandpa Zhan ramble on for a while before hanging up.
However, this also meant that she had finally returned to her peaceful days. But there was still one matter she needed to resolve.
She checked the time and prepared to go out.
This time, as usual, it was at that coffee shop, because Chai Yanyu had also said that the coffee there suited his taste.
When she arrived, Chai Yanyu was already there.
"Sister!" Chai Yanyu waved at Wei Yumeng, but as if remembering something, he sat down with some unease.
Wei Yumeng walked over and sat opposite Chai Yanyu, only to see him looking down, appearing as if he had done something wrong.
"What's wrong? Ayu?"
Hearing Wei Yumeng call him this, Chai Yanyu finally looked up: "Sister, you don't blame me anymore?"
Wei Yumeng smiled and shook her head: "If I still blamed you, I wouldn't have come to see you."
Finally, Chai Yanyu showed his signature smile: "That's good. Sister, I was really worried for so long. Look, have I lost weight?"
Wei Yumeng pretended to cooperate: "Yes, you have indeed lost weight."
"See, see? I was really worried about you." As Chai Yanyu spoke, a gentle look reappeared in his eyes: "But it's good that you're okay."
Wei Yumeng also smiled at him: "Thank you. If it weren't for you, Linjing, and Yichen, this wouldn't have been resolved. Oh, and thank you for always being so good to me."
Although these words were Wei Yumeng expressing her gratitude, they also conveyed her view of Chai Yanyu, indirectly rejecting his feelings.
Chai Yanyu remained unfazed, still looking at Wei Yumeng: "Sister, you're too polite. I was truly worried back then if saying those things would actually help you with those two. Fortunately, your friends are all good people."
This response made Wei Yumeng unable to fully discern his meaning. She didn't know if Chai Yanyu truly understood her intentions.
"Sister, I've finished my business here and might return to C City in a couple of days. I might not have time to bid farewell then, so I'm telling you in advance."
"So soon?"
Wei Yumeng was slightly taken aback. She hadn't expected to become accustomed to Chai Yanyu being around her. Hearing this news suddenly made her feel a bit disappointed.
Seeing Wei Yumeng's reaction, Chai Yanyu smiled, stood up, leaned over the table, and brought his face close to Wei Yumeng's ear: "Of course, if Sister says she can't bear to part with me, then I won't leave..."
