Seeing Old Zhang's greedy expression and malicious grin, Wei Yumeng felt disgusted from the bottom of her heart.
Mu Linjing pulled Wei Yumeng behind her. "Who do you think you are? Stay away from us. Wei Jin, control your man, don't let him out to disgust people."
Wei Jin also wished this wouldn't happen, but if she could control Old Zhang, would she need to buy a second-hand car?
Of course, Old Zhang didn't give her face. He snorted, "She can control me? You two little darlings, I really like your personalities. Even if you're pregnant, it doesn't matter. Come to Uncle's arms, and I'll still dote on you."
The two hadn't eaten yet, but they almost vomited their overnight meals. This man, with few hairs on his head, dared to speak like this. He was simply blinded by greed.
Wei Yumeng said directly, "I don't have any peculiar fetishes. This is a place to eat, not a trash can. Not all trash can make it to the stage. If you keep pestering us, I'll call the police."
Old Zhang, feeling rejected, lost all face and directly overturned the dishes on the table with his thick hands. "Fine, you two little girls. You refused to toast but chose to be punished. You, a pregnant woman, dare to dislike me? See if I don't teach you a good lesson."
Mu Linjing's heart leaped, and she quickly protected Wei Yumeng. Wei Jin, from behind, finally vented her anger. Although this old man had embarrassed her, being able to teach Wei Yumeng a lesson made her feel more balanced.
Old Zhang rolled up his sleeves, revealing his thick arms. With a hooligan's demeanor, he walked towards the two women. His huge body could almost engulf both of them. Mu Linjing and Wei Yumeng tried to avoid him, but the people eating around them were just watching the show, and no one offered any help.
As Old Zhang raised his hand, Mu Linjing and Wei Yumeng pulled at each other, neither wanting the other to take the blow for them. However, what followed was Old Zhang's pig-like scream.
The two looked up and saw Old Zhang's raised arm being restrained from behind. His entire shoulder was tilted backward at an extremely unnatural angle. Behind him stood Fang Xun's stern face.
"How dare you touch Mrs. Zhan? Are you tired of living?"
Old Zhang couldn't clearly see who was behind him, only yelling, "What Mrs. Zhan? Who is your bastard? Let me go, or I'll break your arm."
Fang Xun heard this and used both hands. Old Zhang's bones were dislocated from behind, accompanied by his wails of agony. Wei Jin was so scared that she didn't dare to say a word, even preparing to slip away at any moment.
Old Zhang didn't know which Zhan family it was, but she did. She didn't expect that even though Wei Yumeng was pregnant with someone else's child, Zhan Mohan was still so good to her.
"Do you still want to break my arm?" Fang Xun continued to twist his arm. With another forceful twist, his fat face was contorted with pain. He shook his head repeatedly. "No, no, no, please spare me. I'll never dare again."
Fang Xun then let go and walked from behind him. "How can you covet and bully Mrs. Zhan? Apologize!"
Old Zhang looked up from his pain at Fang Xun, finding him familiar. He seemed to be the CEO's assistant from Zhan Corporation who had visited his company before. He then realized it was that Mrs. Zhan.
He was immediately so scared that he peed his pants, wishing he could crawl on the ground and kowtow to Wei Yumeng. "It's my fault, I was blind. Mrs. Zhan, please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."
Wei Yumeng felt disgusted. "Fang Xun, let them go. I don't want to see them."
"Did you hear that? Scram!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Old Zhang nodded repeatedly. As he knelt on the ground, he glanced at Wei Jin, who was holding her bag like a brood hen. His face twitched with anger. "You scoundrel, what are you doing standing there? Help me up!"
Despite feeling ashamed, Wei Jin still hurried forward to help him up.
In the eyes of onlookers, the two looked like dogs running away with their tails between their legs, a complete joke.
After such a disgusting incident, even Mu Linjing couldn't eat anymore. The group left the restaurant, and Fang Xun drove them to a coffee shop.
"Madam, are you alright? Do you need me to take you to the hospital?"
Seeing Fang Xun, Wei Yumeng had no other thoughts and directly asked about Zhan Mohan's situation.
"Um, how has Zhan Mohan been lately?"
Upon hearing this, he sighed. "Mr. Zhan was confined at home by his father for questioning the old man about helping you divorce."
Confirming her guess, Wei Yumeng's heart was filled with mixed emotions. Although she was moved to learn that Zhan Mohan had stood up for her, she would rather not have this gratitude if it came at the cost of Zhan Mohan being grounded by Old Master Zhan.
"How is he now? Is he alright?" Given Old Master Zhan's temper, his own son defying him for a woman he disliked would surely enrage him. Zhan Mohan's situation was likely not good.
Fang Xun shook his head. "I'm not too sure about Mr. Zhan's current situation. However, knowing that you were fired from the company by the old man yesterday and have nowhere to go, I came specifically to check on your condition today."
With Zhan Mohan absent, Fang Xun would naturally try his best to protect Wei Yumeng. Moreover, he really couldn't bear to see the two of them tormenting each other like this, so he couldn't help but say.
"Madam, there really is nothing between Mr. Zhan and Miss Jiang. Although Miss Jiang has ulterior motives, I can see clearly and wouldn't lie to you. Not only was there nothing between Mr. Zhan and her that night, but at other times, it was just a working relationship."
Regarding the incident between Zhan Mohan and Jiang Siyu that night, Wei Yumeng now believed that Jiang Siyu had deliberately orchestrated it. Fang Xun saying this was just him not wanting the two of them to miss each other. Wei Yumeng could understand and naturally believed him.
Mu Linjing also chimed in, "Yumeng, then believe what Assistant Fang says. We all know what kind of person Jiang Siyu is. She just fears that your relationship with Mr. Zhan will improve."
"Exactly," Fang Xun, as a subordinate, couldn't say anything about Jiang Siyu at the company, but in private, he had to say what Zhan Mohan was too stubborn to say. "Actually, the only person Mr. Zhan has in his heart is you, Madam. He has warned Miss Jiang several times not to cause trouble anymore. Madam, please believe Mr. Zhan. If he didn't have you in his heart, he wouldn't be confined by his father now."
What he said was indeed honest. The reason Zhan Mohan was confined now was undoubtedly because he had defended her in front of Old Master Zhan. Wei Yumeng knew this very well.
Thinking of this, she paused for a few seconds and suddenly stood up. "I've decided. I'm going to the Zhan family. I can't let him bear all this alone."
