Zhan Mohan was also injured. Seeing this, the doctor not only arranged for him to have his wounds treated but also called the Zhan family.
After all, a chest injury was not like an ordinary wound. Seeing the disheveled state of the few people, it could be inferred that they had been through a fierce battle.
The hospital's medical research had often received investment from the Zhan Corporation, so they naturally recognized Zhan Mohan, the big boss. Seeing that he was injured, it was reasonable to notify his family to accompany him.
When Wei Yumeng heard that Zhan Mohan was injured on the phone, she rushed over in a hurry. She happened to see the doctor finishing treating Zhan Mohan's wound and bandaging it.
She almost shed tears at the sight but managed to hold them back.
Zhan Mohan's injuries were merely scratches. Although they looked frightening, they were not like Jiang Siyu's, which required surgery.
He didn't care much about his own injuries at first, but seeing Wei Yumeng trying hard to hold back her tears, her eyes already red with suppressed emotion, he felt more pain in his heart than on his body.
"It's done. Just a minor injury, not that serious."
Knowing that he must be in a lot of pain, yet he still insisted he wasn't hurting, Wei Yumeng could only play along and not cry. She simply blew cool air from her mouth, trying to ease his pain as if to deafen herself to the reality.
People always liked symbolic gestures. Just like now, after she blew a few times, Zhan Mohan said he really didn't hurt anymore.
"What on earth happened? How did you get injured out of nowhere?"
The last time something like this happened, Zhan Mohan had concealed it well enough that she didn't know. This time, with the hospital's "divine assistance," he couldn't hide it anymore.
He could only recount the entire event from beginning to end. Finally, looking at Wei Yumeng's expression, he asked somewhat cautiously, "Yumeng, I saved Jiang Siyu. Are you angry?"
He didn't expect that with this question, the tears Wei Yumeng had been holding back suddenly gushed out.
"At a time like this, you're still asking me such a question? I should be thanking God you didn't lose your life. Isn't Jiang Siyu's life also a life? What's wrong with you saving him?"
Wei Yumeng herself didn't know why, even though she meant to express that she didn't blame him, her tears couldn't stop. It was as if she was accusing him of something.
Indeed, she should accuse him. Clearly, he had been on the verge of death, almost not making it back, and in a near-death situation, he still had to worry if she would be angry that he saved their former enemy.
"Zhan Mohan, have I not been good to you? Why do you love me so cautiously? Do I make you feel like I'm difficult to deal with?"
She cried and wiped her tears. The comforting words she had prepared all turned into accusations.
This reaction made Zhan Mohan want to laugh and cry. As the injured party, he still couldn't escape the task of coaxing his wife.
He had said the wrong thing, and it was indeed his turn to coax her.
"No, you've always been good to me. You gave birth to a pair of adorable children for me, which is the greatest gift. How could you not be good to me?"
Wei Yumeng also knew that he didn't mean it that way. Now that he had given her a way to step down, she immediately went along with it, but not without a reminder.
"Don't do this again in the future. I love you no less than you love me. Do you need me to prove it to you?"
Zhan Mohan naturally shook his head repeatedly. There was no need for proof. Of course, he would do whatever she said.
"How is Jiang Siyu? Is she badly injured?"
Wei Yumeng's question was not out of pretense or false magnanimity. By the time Zhan Mohan personally sent Jiang Siyu to prison, her dislike and hatred had already dissipated.
Hating someone was tiring. She naturally wanted to live a simpler and more relaxed life.
Zhan Mohan explained, "Whether she's badly injured depends on what the doctor says. But after the surgery, she'll need to be hospitalized. I've already sent people to secure this place. When she wakes up, I have some questions for her."
Wei Yumeng knew that the matter of how Jiang Siyu escaped had to be clarified. As for whether she would be sent back, she left the decision to Zhan Mohan.
After the surgery was over, the patient was directly sent to the ward. The anesthesia had not yet worn off, and Jiang Siyu was still asleep. To prevent any further accidents, Zhan Mohan and Wei Yumeng stayed in the ward, letting everyone else go home to rest.
It wasn't until evening that Jiang Siyu woke up. Zhan Mohan, who was sitting on the sofa, had already fallen asleep with his head resting on Wei Yumeng's shoulder, unable to bear the fatigue.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Siyu's heart was no longer greatly moved. She simply coughed lightly, letting Wei Yumeng know she was awake.
She knew that the reason Zhan Mohan hadn't left was not out of concern, but because he had something to ask her.
Wei Yumeng heard her cough and saw that she had slightly sat up. She then woke Zhan Mohan.
"You're awake. How's your injury?"
Facing Wei Yumeng's question, which she wasn't sure if she should call concern, Jiang Siyu just shook her head. "Ask whatever you have to ask."
Since she had been so direct, Wei Yumeng didn't hesitate. "How did you escape? We've already inquired. They said the prisoner who escaped with you was shot dead."
Jiang Siyu didn't conceal anything. "I only learned about that explanation later. As for how I escaped, would you believe me if I said I didn't know?"
Wei Yumeng just stared at her without speaking, clearly not believing her explanation.
She smiled. "I knew you wouldn't believe me, but that's the truth. I really don't know. The whole thing was arranged by someone else."
"Who?"
This was the question Zhan Mohan cared about most. However, Jiang Siyu's answer was still a shake of her head.
"I don't know who the other party is. One day, a prison guard approached me and asked if I wanted to get out, and if he could help me. Of course, I did. So I waited to see what he would do. But then, one day, I was suddenly drugged. When I woke up, I was in the village where you found me today."
She shrugged after speaking. "Perhaps you think I'm lying, but that's the truth. If you don't believe me, I can only say no comment."
Zhan Mohan was half-believing. From the ambush they encountered today, it was clear that someone else had lured them there, and Jiang Siyu was merely a pawn being used.
As a pawn, she naturally didn't need to know too much.
What he couldn't figure out was that he had no interest in Jiang Siyu whatsoever. This was already obvious. What kind of opponent would be so foolish as to find a bait to lure him into a trap, and deliberately choose such a woman who held no attraction for him?
But he knew his opponent was cunning and wouldn't play a losing game. There must be a reason for going to such great lengths to rescue Jiang Siyu.
