Wei Jin almost forgot that Mu Linjing knew her bottom line. If she really revealed her and Old Zhang’s affair, wouldn't she lose the big catch in front of her?
Their eyes met in the air. Mu Linjing, holding Zhan Yichen’s arm, was fearless. If this woman dared to stay, she would teach this shameless woman a lesson on behalf of Wei Yumeng.
Naturally, Wei Jin didn't dare to linger. She had already embarrassed herself quite a bit recently and had no choice but to stand up and leave Mu Linjing’s seat.
Watching her sit down in the distance, Mu Linjing knew she was waiting for someone, so she pulled Zhan Yichen to sit down again.
Zhan Yichen asked, puzzled, "Aren't you full yet?"
To this question, Mu Linjing really didn’t want to answer. Clearly, he had a deep misunderstanding of her appetite, and it was necessary to stop it.
She pointed with her chin in the direction Wei Jin had just sat, "I want to see who she's waiting for. I’m already full, okay?"
Zhan Yichen naturally didn't care who Wei Jin was eating with, but since Mu Linjing wouldn’t leave, he had to accompany her.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Mu Linjing spotted Jiang Siyu at the main entrance. Although she had made an effort to dress up, being in the same company, Mu Linjing was intimately familiar with her appearance and recognized her at a glance.
The two of them really knew each other. She immediately took out her phone, took a picture, and sent it to Fang Xun before pulling Zhan Yichen away.
"Where are you going? I'll drive you," Zhan Yichen leaned against his car and opened the passenger door for her.
As a creditor, Mu Lin was very pleased with his attentive service, so she got in the car without any politeness, gave her home address, and fastened her seatbelt.
Zhan Yichen chuckled, "Okay, your considerate boyfriend is at your service."
Hearing this, Mu Linjing couldn't help but punch him, "Don't kid me. I helped you out of a tight spot, and now you owe me another favor."
Zhan Yichen frowned and looked at her, "Before I met you, I really didn't know that owing someone could be so easy."
Neither of them would back down, and they argued all the way back to Mu Linjing’s house.
Before getting out of the car, Mu Linjing glared at him and said, "Before I met you, I didn't know there were men who could argue with women so much."
She got out of the car huffily and slammed the car door shut. The reason she was so angry, of course, was that she hadn't won the argument.
And because she got out of the car in such a huff, she completely forgot the purpose of her trip. She didn't get her debt back and ended up filling herself with anger.
Inside the car, Zhan Yichen couldn't help but laugh as he watched her retreating figure. Wasn't he easily getting her address?
Meanwhile, after Fang Xun received the photo from Mu Linjing and compared it with what Wei Yumeng had asked him to investigate, he found that Wei Jin had been in the most frequent contact with Jiang Siyu in the past few days.
The two of them absolutely didn't know each other. The reason they could get together was probably due to Wei Yumeng. Jiang Siyu had always regarded Wei Yumeng as a thorn in her side, which was common knowledge. Therefore, they were now lacking evidence of the two of them conspiring to harm Wei Yumeng.
This was also what Zhan Mohan had instructed: not to alert the snake, but to find substantial evidence of Jiang Siyu's actions against Wei Yumeng's unborn child and present it to Old Master Zhan.
Old Master Zhan valued heirs so much that he would be furious when he knew Jiang Siyu had done such a thing.
In this way, even if he couldn't accept Wei Yumeng for the time being, he would at least not try to set up Zhan Mohan and Jiang Siyu.
Just as he was thinking about how to obtain the evidence, someone suddenly ran up to him with a pile of documents, "Assistant Fang, the partner for this project is suddenly withdrawing their investment. What should we do?"
Fang Xun's eyebrows twitched at the words. He took the documents and looked at them, feeling a headache. This project was quite important to the company. The entire project department had worked overtime for more than a month to secure it, and the project launch conference was about to be held to officially start it. At this time, the partner wanted to withdraw their investment, so where would they find another suitable partner?
Such a major issue couldn't be kept from Zhan Mohan, so he immediately called Zhan Mohan.
Zhan Mohan immediately decided to go on a business trip to the partner company to negotiate in person, find out the reason for the sudden withdrawal of investment, and try to mediate.
As an assistant, Fang Xun naturally had to accompany him.
That evening, the two of them boarded a plane. Mu Linjing was also notified to accompany Wei Yumeng to the hospital.
After a day of rest, Wei Yumeng felt much better. After all, with Zhan Mohan by her side, even if they didn't speak, one reading and the other working, they wouldn't feel bored.
Seeing Wei Yumeng zoning out while reading, Mu Linjing couldn't help but tease, "Mr. Zhan just left, and you're already missing him?"
Her thoughts exposed, she glared at Mu Linjing coquettishly, "Do you know why he suddenly went on a business trip?"
Zhan Mohan left in a hurry and only told her that he had an urgent project to deal with, without specifying details. Although this was normal, Zhan Mohan had been in this situation before.
However, this time, she felt particularly uneasy, as if her heart was unsettled. Perhaps it was because she had just experienced a conspiracy that made her hair stand on end, and she was still scared.
Mu Linjing had heard some rumors from her colleagues, "I only know that the project that was previously so difficult seems to have run into problems. Mr. Zhan is going there personally to negotiate."
Wei Yumeng thought for a moment, "Is it the project that's supposed to be released next week?"
Mu Linjing nodded and couldn't help but complain, "Everyone worked so hard for this project. At this critical juncture, such a thing happened. This partner is too unreliable."
Wei Yumeng didn't respond. Although such situations were common, after all, in the business world, there were only eternal interests. Perhaps the other party had a better option, and it was not impossible to change their mind temporarily?
But she felt something was wrong. The events happening at this critical juncture were too coincidental, as if someone deliberately wanted to get Zhan Mohan out of the way.
Of course, this was just her baseless speculation, so she didn't say it out loud.
Mu Linjing, busy complaining, didn't notice her abnormality and continued to tell her about encountering Wei Jin at the restaurant today.
"Why is she so shameless? As soon as her face healed enough to be seen, she rushed to find a new man."
Wei Yumeng didn't want to say much about Wei Jin. They were of different paths and couldn't plan together. Some people just liked to live such a life, didn't they?
To prevent her from overthinking and getting agitated, Mu Linjing didn't mention that the person Wei Jin was waiting for was Jiang Siyu.
Just as she was thinking of changing the subject, the light above suddenly went out, and the ward plunged into darkness.
