Deng Qiuping finally calmed down upon hearing this. "Old Zhan, our families have had such a long-standing relationship. I hope it won't be affected in any way. Initially, the two children had no conflict. It's just because of one woman this time that things have escalated to this point, turning it into a family feud. Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?"
Old Master Zhan certainly wouldn't let an insignificant person affect the relationship between the two major families. Moreover, Deng Corporation and theirs had ongoing cooperation. If they were to cancel it just because of Wei Yumeng, the losses their company would incur would be immeasurable.
All of this was caused by that woman named Wei Yumeng. Now, whenever he thought of Wei Yumeng, a surge of anger would rise within him. He wished he had never let this woman into the Zhan family in the first place; then things wouldn't have turned out like this.
"Qiuping, don't worry. No one can affect the relationship between our two families. As for company matters, I will talk to A'han as soon as he returns."
"Alright, then I won't disturb you any longer. When A'han returns, please have a good talk with him. With his qualifications, what kind of woman can't he have? There's no need for him to do such irrational things for a woman who is notorious and promiscuous."
Old Master Zhan had his driver send Deng Qiuping away. Returning to the living room, his expression was extremely grim, and the atmosphere had not eased at all. He said to Feng Shimei:
"Bring the person back here immediately!"
Feng Shimei was startled by Old Master Zhan. She rarely saw him in such a furious rage, but lately, he seemed to be losing his temper too often. All these issues stemmed from Wei Yumeng.
If it weren't for that woman, wouldn't their happy home be in this state?
Feng Shimei nodded. "I'll go right away."
As she was about to make a phone call, Zhan Mohan and Wei Yumeng walked back in.
Seeing Wei Yumeng, Feng Shimei glared fiercely at her before turning her gaze back to Zhan Mohan, her face instantly breaking into a smile.
"Brother Mohan."
Zhan Mohan sensed that the atmosphere in the living room was not right and asked Feng Shimei, "What's wrong?"
Feng Shimei sidled up to Zhan Mohan and said, "Grandpa is furious. Grandpa Deng came over just now. You should know what's going on, right?"
"Mm, I'll explain it to Grandpa."
Zhan Mohan had already prepared himself for this. His face showed no sign of panic; instead, he was remarkably calm.
Feng Shimei grabbed Zhan Mohan's arm and said urgently, "Brother Mohan, can't you just listen to Grandpa and divorce this woman? If she continues to be with you, she will ruin you. Think about everything that has happened recently. Our Zhan family has had no peace for a moment, all because of this woman. She's also in a dubious relationship with that Xin Ran. Even if they have no contact now, what about the future? Who can guarantee that those two won't reconnect? At that time, Brother Mohan, these two will truly destroy you."
The man's gaze immediately turned sharp. "Shimei, in your opinion, do you think I will have a future if I'm with Jiang Siyu?"
"At least Sister Siyu wouldn't harm you."
"She hasn't harmed me either."
"If she hadn't harmed you, would you be like this? Zhan Mohan, do you know what you've done for this woman? Deng Corporation and our Zhan family have a long-standing relationship. Because of your personal issues, it has escalated to affect company interests. Who are you responsible to, anyway!"
Old Master Zhan walked out at this moment, leaning on his cane, his face ashen.
Zhan Mohan respectfully inclined his head slightly. "Grandpa."
"You still know you're a member of the Zhan family. Zhan Mohan, you're being too reckless now. You're not even listening to me anymore, are you? Did you see that video? What is the relationship between this woman and Deng Xianyi? Who can guarantee it?"
Old Master Zhan never expected his beloved grandson to be so foolish.
Zhan Mohan's attitude was firm. He did not back down despite Old Master Zhan's anger.
"Grandpa, no matter what, Wei Yumeng is still my wife, and she is still a member of our Zhan family. For Deng Xianyi to torment her like this is equivalent to humiliating our Zhan family. I believe I have done nothing wrong!"
"You still think you've done nothing wrong! You're almost causing Deng Corporation to go bankrupt! Zhan Mohan, do you not realize you're wrong? If you don't, then I'll have to resort to family discipline."
Old Master Zhan had reached his limit. If he didn't do this now, Zhan Mohan might not turn back.
Zhan Mohan, however, braced himself and knelt directly on the ground.
Seeing him like this, Old Master Zhan became even more enraged and struck him with his cane.
"You scoundrel!"
Feng Shimei was afraid Old Master Zhan would injure Zhan Mohan as severely as he had last time. Although she was also very angry, she only resented Wei Yumeng. Her affection for Zhan Mohan had never changed; he was her Brother Mohan, always.
She walked over and knelt down with him. "Grandpa, please calm your anger. Brother Mohan didn't do it on purpose. If it weren't for this woman constantly bewitching Brother Mohan, I believe Brother Mohan wouldn't be so foolish. Grandpa, we should deal with this woman, not Brother Mohan."
"Feng Shimei, you have no say here. Go back to your room!"
Zhan Mohan suddenly roared, veins bulging on his forehead.
Feng Shimei, with her neck stiffened, shouted back, "I won't! Why should I go back! Brother Mohan, she's the one who should leave. This woman should never have appeared by your side; she's a jinx!"
"Feng Shimei, don't force me to lay a hand on you!" The man had clearly reached the peak of his rage.
Feng Shimei had rarely seen Zhan Mohan treat her this way. His current demeanor was like that of a furious lion.
She cried out miserably, "Brother Mohan, I'm doing this for your own good. You can't treat me like this."
At this moment, Wei Yumeng also knelt down directly.
"Old Master Zhan, I can swear with the child in my womb and my life that I truly have no improper relationship with Deng Xianyi. I was simply taking care of him. This video was also framed by him. You can investigate thoroughly."
Wen Yulan beside them snorted coldly, "Stop talking nonsense here. Who doesn't know that A'han will believe whatever you say now?"
Wei Yumeng glanced sideways at Wen Yulan. "I've already sworn with my life. If you were in my shoes and weren't telling the truth, would you dare to do this?"
"Why wouldn't I dare? A shameless woman like you, what wouldn't you do? Look at how A'han has been led astray by you. Wei Yumeng, a woman like you truly doesn't deserve to live in this world."
"I don't deserve it, do you?"
