She had just said something in her sleep, and this person was so angry.
"Why don't you go and comfort him, Madam? Young Master Zhan took care of you all night yesterday. He was quite tired. I've never seen him take care of anyone so meticulously."
Wei Yumeng was stunned. Had Zhan Mohan really taken care of her last night?
Her eyes darted away, and she suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Perhaps... perhaps she still wants to keep me in the Zhan family to atone, so she doesn't want me to die so soon."
After all, Wen Yulan was his father's woman, and she had treated him well usually. From their interactions, their relationship seemed to be quite good.
Moreover, wasn't Zhan Yichen very respectful of him as his elder brother?
Then he should be on the same side as him. Otherwise, she really couldn't understand why Zhan Yichen would treat him so well. It didn't make sense.
Fang Xun felt that they had too many misunderstandings when he heard this.
"Madam, you should understand Young Master Zhan more. After all, you caused him to be in a wheelchair now. He could have been a normal person. The doctor said that if he can't recover like this, he might be like this for the rest of his life."
Wei Yumeng was surprised: "Was the impact that severe?"
Fang Xun gave a wry smile: "Madam, you know best whether the impact was severe or not, don't you?"
"I..."
Wei Yumeng couldn't respond to this. She didn't hit him, but she was angry now. If it weren't for Wei Jin, that lunatic, not driving properly, she wouldn't have had an accident and wouldn't be married to Zhan Mohan now, in such a difficult situation.
No, she had to urge Zhan Mohan to handle this matter quickly, before their relationship completely deteriorated.
He was capricious, and she didn't know when he would target her again. She should make a move earlier.
"Then I'll go and see him."
Fang Xun's face lit up: "Young Master Zhan is in the study now. You can go directly. Do you need me to help you?"
"No, I can walk there myself."
Wei Yumeng threw off the quilt and was about to bend down to stand up when her wound was pulled. She gritted her teeth in pain and remained still.
Seeing this, Fang Xun quickly stepped forward: "Are you alright, Madam?"
She forced a smile: "I'm fine."
Wei Yumeng carefully walked to the study door and knocked. A cold voice came from inside.
"Who?"
"Mr. Zhan, it's me."
"Come in."
Wei Yumeng pushed the door open. Zhan Mohan was sitting at his desk, his long fingers typing rapidly on the laptop keyboard. He didn't even raise his eyelids, and his handsome face was expressionless, which was quite chilling.
She knew Zhan Mohan was still angry, probably because of something she said in her sleep that he misunderstood.
For now, she had to pacify this man first. Otherwise, the matter of Wei Jin wouldn't progress, and no one would help her vent her anger.
She carefully closed the door and walked up to him.
"I heard from Fang Xun that you took care of me last night. Thank you."
"No need. I just didn't want you to die so quickly. This game wouldn't be fun then."
Zhan Mohan's eyebrows were still cold, like an emotionless sculpture, and his words were as hard as stones.
If she hadn't come with a purpose today, she wouldn't have known how to respond to him.
She didn't beat around the bush, knowing his concerns, and spoke directly.
"I've had a habit of talking in my sleep since I was young. I suppose I must have caused you to misunderstand. Yesterday, I dreamt that Wei Anguo abandoned me and my mother. We were in a world of ice and snow, the coldest season. He packed his bags and left without looking back. My mother and I didn't eat for several days. Later, I saw him on the street, holding Yin Fang's hand, the two of them deeply in love."
No one could understand how she and Gu Shuyi felt at that time. They felt abandoned, betrayed. Even their closest family would abandon them, let alone others.
Thinking of this, a pang of sadness struck her, and her eyes reddened slightly.
Zhan Mohan was stunned for a few seconds when he heard her explanation.
So, the person she mentioned last night was not Xin Ran, but Wei Anguo, and he had misunderstood?
"Since your attitude is acceptable, I'll let it slide for now. Go back to bed and lie down. Don't make me stay up all night for nothing."
If something else goes wrong later, he would still have to find someone to treat her.
Wei Yumeng stood there without moving, her face still pale, her strength not yet recovered.
Zhan Mohan noticed her hesitation and raised an eyebrow: "Is there something else?"
"Mr. Zhan, when are you going to fulfill what you promised me last time?"
"You want to force Wei Anguo to sell Wei Jin with his own hands as soon as possible?"
Zhan Mohan suddenly realized that her hesitation just now and her sudden change in attitude were all paving the way for her to negotiate with him.
This woman wasn't entirely brainless. She knew to start with soft tactics.
"I won't go back on my word about what I promised you, but the timing isn't right yet. You also know that the Wei family isn't something that can be bankrupted easily. If new capital is injected now, it can be revived. Are you sure you want me to deliver the final blow?"
Some unpleasant truths had to be stated upfront, so this woman wouldn't throw a tantrum again.
It wasn't that he couldn't handle it, but he was tired of dealing with it.
Wei Yumeng knew very well that if Zhan Mohan really agreed, the Wei Group would likely fall into her hands.
But even if the Wei Group survived, it would be meaningless to her. Wei Anguo would never let her get involved in company affairs.
"I've decided. Go ahead and do it. Don't worry about anything else."
After all, as soon as Xin Ran's matter was resolved, she would leave the Zhan family immediately and leave this city that caused her so much pain.
She looked forward to that day.
At this moment, Zhan Mohan did not know that Wei Yumeng was planning to leave.
He closed his laptop, his eyes deep.
"Alright, we'll do as you wish. It's also compensation for my mother hitting you this time."
Thinking of Wen Yulan, Wei Yumeng felt some blame towards herself.
"It's also my fault. I was stubborn and clashed with her. I knew she didn't like me, but at that moment, all I could think about was her forcing me to take medicine. I lost control of my emotions and then..."
"And you didn't think much about it, just wanted to vent your anger first, right?"
Wei Yumeng now looked like a child who had done something wrong, her head lowered, her hands clasped together.
Zhan Mohan looked at her regretful appearance, and his earlier gloomy mood eased somewhat. Considering she was injured, he would spare her for now.
"I'll have people make arrangements tomorrow. You'd better behave yourself for the next few days. If you anger Mom again, I won't take care of you!"
