"First, go to the Wei family, bring the evidence, and make them withdraw this matter themselves."
"I don't want to go. Their family is like vampires. If they see me, they'll want to eat me alive. Why don't you go, elder brother?"
Zhan Mohan looked at his terrified appearance and couldn't help but chuckle.
"If Mom hears you say that, you'll get scolded again."
Everyone in the Zhan family could see how much Wen Yulan expected from Zhan Yichen. As a result, Zhan Yichen was either afraid of this or that, or just afraid of trouble.
Zhan Yichen's mind was not on the Zhan family at all. When Wen Yulan was mentioned, he couldn't help but frown.
"You know my mother. She always likes to impose her ideas on me. What she likes doesn't mean I like it. It's like the company. You can manage it well because you're capable. If it were me, I'd probably ruin the company within three months."
He knew himself well and knew he wasn't cut out for it.
Zhan Mohan placed a hand on Zhan Yichen's shoulder. He had always liked his younger brother. He was simple-minded, just liked to play.
It was precisely because Wen Yulan doted on him too much since childhood and had too high expectations for him that he turned out this way.
He asked Fang Xun, "Are the media still staking out these two days?"
"Yes, and outside the Wei family's house too. It's probably because the Zhan family hasn't had any scandals for a long time, and they really need some explosive news. It's not a good time for Mr. Zhan and the second young master to go to the Wei family."
Zhan Yichen looked troubled. "But if we don't go, who will? Should I let Mom go? That's not an option. She'll be so angry she'll faint if she goes."
He had already seen what the Wei family was like when they came last time. Wei Jin and Yin Fang were incredibly sharp-tongued, and Wen Yulan was no match for them.
Zhan Mohan pondered for a moment, stroking his chin. "How about this, I'll have Yu Meng go. Even if reporters see her, they won't be suspicious. They'll just think she's going home to see her family."
Zhan Yichen nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, yes, let sister-in-law go. She's the most suitable person."
Zhan Mohan glanced at Zhan Yichen. "Are you getting used to others' opinions now?"
"Compared to her sister, she's much more pleasing to the eye."
Zhan Mohan turned sideways, his expression serious, and said to Zhan Yichen, "Then be a little nicer to her from now on."
Zhan Yichen playfully teased him with a wicked grin. "It seems Big Brother is starting to care about her now. But, do you really not mind what she did to you and Zhan Lin?"
Zhan Mohan's eyes darkened, and the calm expression on his face was replaced by a sharp gaze.
"I will investigate this matter thoroughly."
Zhan Yichen frowned. "Big Brother, you still refuse to believe she's the perpetrator?"
"There are still many doubts about this matter." Zhan Mohan instinctively didn't want to believe that Wei Yu Meng would have a motive to be the perpetrator.
"But all indications point to her, Big Brother. I hope you can handle this calmly and not act rashly. After all, she's just an outsider. We brothers are related by blood."
Although Zhan Yichen's attitude towards Wei Yu Meng was better now than before, whenever he thought of his younger brother lying in the hospital because of that woman, an inexplicable anger would surge in his heart.
"Yichen, I hope you won't make any judgment about her until this matter is investigated."
When Zhan Mohan heard Zhan Yichen's words, his eyebrows suddenly knitted together, showing a cold, unrestrained, yet also a hint of sadness.
Zhan Yichen said no more. "Then I'll leave first."
"Mm."
After Zhan Yichen left, Zhan Mohan turned and instructed Fang Xun.
"Did you find out from Zhao Qiansheng? Does he really have no evidence at all?"
Fang Xun shook his head. "Don't worry, Mr. Zhan. I asked very clearly. He really doesn't. However, there's some news that might be very useful to us."
"What?"
"It's about the car accident. Wei Jin told him."
Zhan Mohan's gaze sharpened. Fang Xun, standing beside him, felt his eyes were piercingly cold.
"Wei Jin knows Zhao Qiansheng?"
"Wei Jin took the initiative to find Zhao Qiansheng."
Zhan Mohan's brows furrowed even tighter, showing clear displeasure.
"How long ago was this?"
"Just a few days ago."
"What's Zhao Qiansheng's condition now?"
Fang Xun clicked his tongue. "The scene was a bit too gruesome to look at. He'll probably need to go to the hospital for an examination. He'll be confined to bed for the next few days. The two people I found were a bit rough."
Zhan Mohan sneered. "That's what he deserves."
"He deserves it, he deserves it. Who told him to be so bold as to dare to touch Mr. Zhan's wife."
Fang Xun quickly agreed and even secretly chuckled.
"You tidy up the documents here. I'll go back to the room and talk to her."
Zhan Mohan didn't miss Fang Xun's smile but chose to ignore it.
"Okay, Mr. Zhan."
Fang Xun watched Zhan Mohan leave and sighed slightly, hoping these two wouldn't encounter any more trouble.
He could see that since Mr. Zhan got together with Wei Yu Meng, Mr. Zhan had changed a lot. This was probably love.
Zhan Mohan returned to the room. Wei Yu Meng was on the phone. He didn't interrupt her but quietly walked in and then closed the door.
Wei Yu Meng didn't notice Zhan Mohan, completely absorbed in her phone call with Wei Jin.
Her voice was even a little impatient. "I've already told you very clearly. If you can provide evidence that the child in your womb is Zhan Yichen's, the Zhan family will not abandon you. But the premise is that you cannot lie. What I told you to say is the same. You know my situation in the Zhan family. Zhan Mohan won't just believe my words."
Wei Jin, changing her usual nasty attitude towards Wei Yu Meng, lowered her stance and pleaded with her.
"Sister, I was wrong before. Please don't hold it against me. Help me. Zhan Yichen clearly doesn't want to take responsibility for me now. Are you going to let me go into labor with a big belly?"
"Are you sure the child in your womb is Zhan Yichen's?"
As Wei Yu Meng asked this, her tone was tinged with doubt. Not to mention the entire Zhan family, even she didn't believe that the child in Wei Jin's womb was Zhan Yichen's.
"I..."
Before Wei Jin could finish speaking, Wei Yu Meng's phone was snatched away by a pair of large hands, and the call was immediately hung up.
She turned around in surprise and saw Zhan Mohan standing behind her without her noticing. Her expression was stunned.
"When did you come in?"
"Not long ago." Zhan Mohan threw the phone on the bed, sat down, and then patted the empty space next to him, signaling her to sit down.
Wei Yu Meng was caught off guard for a moment. "I... I didn't say anything to Wei Jin."
She was afraid Zhan Mohan would misunderstand again.
"I know." He replied with unusual certainty this time.
"Then why didn't you let me finish talking to her?" She was about to ask Wei Jin if the child in her womb was really Zhan Yichen's when she was interrupted by Zhan Mohan.
Zhan Mohan scoffed and said sarcastically.
"Do you think Wei Jin would really tell you the truth?"
Hearing this, Wei Yu Meng seemed to sense something. She looked intently at Zhan Mohan's calm, handsome face.
"From what you're saying, have you found something?"
"I just asked Fang Xun. The child in Wei Jin's womb is not Yichen's, which means nothing happened between them."
Wei Yu Meng's heart skipped a beat. She never expected Wei Jin to tell such a colossal lie.
"Then whose child is it?"
"I don't know."
"What do we do now? Does that mean Zhan Yichen doesn't have to marry Wei Jin anymore?" Wei Yu Meng breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the child in Wei Jin's womb was not Zhan Yichen's. After all, if she were truly pregnant, she would become a sinner in the Zhan family.
Wen Yulan would hate her to death afterward.
"This is also why I'm telling you this. Find some time, preferably this afternoon, to go to the Wei family and explain this matter to Wei Jin, making her back down."
Zhan Mohan reached out and played with the freshly dried strands of Wei Yu Meng's hair, twirling them around his fingertips.
Wei Yu Meng pointed at herself in disbelief. "You want me to confront Yin Fang and Wei Jin? They'll tear me apart."
"Don't worry, I'll have Fang Xun accompany you. He'll notify me if anything happens."
He wouldn't let her suffer any grievances.
Wei Yu Meng pouted. "Why should I go? Can't Zhan Yichen go?"
"It's inconvenient for Yichen. The reporters outside are still staking out the Wei family because of the previous incident. If we go now, it'll just make a bigger fuss."
If he could have her go himself, he wouldn't have let her take such a risk. Moreover, only if Wei Yu Meng went would Wen Yulan owe her a favor and not take her anger out on her over this matter.
