"Young Master Zhan, I came today mainly for another matter. Now that your child is born, and you have both sons and daughters, which is a blessing indeed. However, the Zhan Corporation is a vast enterprise. You shouldn't just hand over such a large fortune to someone else."
Zhan Mohan's expression turned grim, his eyes instantly turning icy, "What do you mean?"
He spoke word by word, which truly startled Zheng Yuanyuan.
Xin Ran, unsure what else this crazy woman intended to stir up, pulled her back, "What nonsense are you spouting here? Come back with me!"
But Zheng Yuanyuan seemed to have taken the wrong medicine today, retorting sarcastically, "Oh, isn't this my fiancé? Are you here to see the Zhan family's child, or your own child?"
As soon as she finished speaking, accompanied by a loud bang of a table being slammed, Zhan Mohan stood up. His frosty gaze dropped the surrounding temperature by more than ten degrees.
"If you spout any more nonsense, do you believe I'll make the Zheng family disappear from Pengcheng tomorrow?"
He rarely said such things. Anyone present with eyes could see his anger had reached its peak. Zheng Yuanyuan was naturally afraid.
But she hesitated for only a few seconds. As if she thought of something, she became brazen again, daring to mock even the living Yama, Zhan Mohan.
"Young Master Zhan, I'm speaking for your own good. Your reaction is so intense, is it because I've hit a nerve, and you're angry out of shame?"
Mu Linjing, standing nearby, admired her courage to challenge them. Seeing that both men were quite provoked and she couldn't do much, she could only go over and gently push Zheng Yuanyuan outwards.
"I say, Miss Zheng, you'd best not do things that will only embarrass yourself. Do you think a few words from you can create a trust crisis between Yumeng and Young Master Zhan, or make Xin Ran yield to you? If you cause the Zheng family to cease to exist in Pengcheng because of your few vengeful words, do you think it's worth it? I advise you to be sensible and leave quickly. Perhaps Young Master Zhan won't hold it against you too much."
Zheng Yuanyuan, of course, wouldn't listen. Instead, she looked her up and down with disdain, "Who do you think you are, to lecture me? Young Master Zhan, I'm just kindly reminding you. Now that the baby is born, a paternity test is more authoritative. Since Xin Ran is here today, why don't you do it again? Lest, after twenty years, you discover you've handed this vast Zhan Corporation to an outsider. Then, you won't be able to get it back."
Wei Yumeng could no longer tolerate it. It was one thing for others to insult her, but now they were insulting her newborn child. How could she endure it?
Pointing at Zheng Yuanyuan, her fingertip trembled, "Lin Jing, call security and get her out of here!"
Seeing her get agitated, Mu Linjing was greatly alarmed. A woman who had just given birth should avoid extreme emotional fluctuations, lest she suffer a major hemorrhage.
Therefore, she didn't even call security. Along with Xin Ran, she pushed Zheng Yuanyuan out. Of course, Xin Ran did not return.
Wei Yumeng was quite angered. Zhan Mohan quickly comforted her, repeatedly assuring her that he hadn't taken these words to heart. He believed Wei Yumeng was innocent, which slowly helped her recover.
"Yumeng, don't overthink it. Shall I take you to see our child?"
Zhan Mohan changed the subject and pushed her in a wheelchair to see the babies.
After giving birth, she had only glanced at each child once. At that time, she was exhausted. Now, after sleeping, she realized she had no memory of their appearance.
Zhan Mohan was the same. He had only looked at them once since their birth. At that time, all his attention was on Wei Yumeng. Wei Yumeng was still in pain, and he had no mood to care about anything else.
So, on the way, both of them were somewhat impatient, to the point that Mu Linjing had to jog to keep up with Zhan Mohan's pace.
Along the way, they encountered Zhan Yichen walking back. Although he found it strange that he was there, he deliberately concealed that Wen Yulan had visited, so he made up a casual excuse.
Everyone was eager to see the two little babies, so he managed to get away with it.
Through the incubator, Wei Yumeng looked at the two small lives she had nurtured and couldn't help but shed tears.
Pregnancy was not easy, especially with these two little ones. She could barely remember how much she had suffered. She thought pregnancy was hard then, but now, seeing the two babies, she knew all the hardships were worth it.
These two children were the continuation of her and Zhan Mohan's lives and love.
Seeing her gaze fixed on the babies in the incubator, who were only opening their big, bell-like eyes and sucking their fingers, Zhan Mohan tenderly kissed her forehead. "Don't worry, from now on, I will protect you with my life."
They didn't say any more words. They just clasped their fingers together, gazing at the two babies.
Zhan Yichen, seeing how loving and harmonious they were, couldn't help but lean in and kiss Mu Linjing. "We will be like this too in the future."
Although he said it casually, as if joking, he knew in his heart that this was his promise to Mu Linjing, his definition of happiness.
In the past, he had always been lost about the future. But at this moment, his future suddenly appeared incredibly clear in his mind.
Mu Linjing looked afar at the incubator. The two babies were kicking their little legs and looking around. Her heart was about to melt.
She couldn't help but start making claims. "Yumeng, these two children have to recognize me as their godmother."
As soon as she said this, two voices of objection rang out simultaneously.
"Aren't you their aunt?"
"Not godmother, aunt."
Wei Yumeng and Zhan Yichen corrected her at the same time, and she suddenly realized.
But thinking about it, losing a pair of godson and goddaughter for a man didn't seem like a good deal at all.
Since Wei Yumeng had just given birth and couldn't be exposed to the wind, lest she develop a chronic illness, they only looked for a while before returning to the ward.
Zhan Mohan pushed Wei Yumeng ahead. Mu Linjing reluctantly said goodbye to the two little ones several times before turning back, looking back repeatedly.
Halfway there, she patted her pocket and remembered. She quickly turned around and went back.
She took out two longevity locks from her pocket and placed them in the nurse's palm. "Please help me put these on the children."
These were specially blessed by a master. Although feng shui and superstition were no longer popular, she still had to give the two babies a meeting gift.
After they left, the nurse took the two longevity locks inside. She opened the incubator and had just placed both longevity locks into the babies' swaddling clothes when she felt a sharp pain in her neck, as if she had been hit on the head with a steel rod. Then, she lost consciousness.
