Wei Yumeng had originally thought that as long as there were no issues with the project construction site or the partners, there shouldn't be any problems with this project.
However, the unexpected still happened.
"I'm sorry, Yumeng, this is my fault," Song Yifan said, his eyes full of guilt.
"Originally, that manufacturer was well-known locally and could guarantee the quality of its products. Who knew that their company owner would step down, and the new owner turned out to be a profit-driven scoundrel."
Wei Yumeng looked at the product samples delivered to her hand, and felt a headache.
This was not just a little bit off from the original planned effect; it wasn't unrelated, it was completely different.
However, she didn't think this matter should be blamed on Song Yifan. After all, the company was abroad, and they were in China, so they couldn't know about their problems immediately.
Song Yifan thought carefully, then took the initiative to suggest, "How about this, I'll go abroad alone and resolve this matter with them as quickly as possible. Either we terminate the cooperation and they refund our project funds, or they make a new batch of products according to our standards."
Fortunately, there was still plenty of time before the product launch.
"No, I can't let you go alone," Wei Yumeng considered.
Actually, this company had contacted her before. Although it was the previous person in charge, at least Wei Yumeng understood the situation of their factory. If she were there, she should be able to help a lot.
"But..."
If possible, Song Yifan naturally didn't want Wei Yumeng to be troubled by this matter. After all, going abroad might mean she wouldn't adapt to everything.
"That's enough," Wei Yumeng looked at him. "Since I am also a person in charge of this project, this is what I should do."
"Alright," Song Yifan finally relented. At least if they went there, he could take responsibility for protecting Wei Yumeng.
He had to admit, he wasn't entirely selfless about this matter.
If he could go on a business trip with Wei Yumeng, wouldn't that mean more opportunities to spend time with her?
Thinking about it this way, this outcome didn't seem too bad.
After making the decision, Wei Yumeng informed Zhan Mohan of her decision.
In fact, she had already anticipated Zhan Mohan's reaction. Since her relationship with Song Yifan was special, he would always worry.
It was precisely because of this that she had to inform Zhan Mohan.
Only then could she show that she had a clear conscience about this trip and was not harboring any other intentions.
"So I have to go abroad with Song Yifan. But I can promise you, I'll come back as soon as possible after the matter is resolved."
Zhan Mohan did not answer directly but thought carefully.
He had heard a little about the project and was planning to communicate with the other party himself.
Then Wei Yumeng came to him.
"Actually, you don't need to make a trip. I can communicate with them online. With my identity, they will surely take it seriously."
This was the best solution Zhan Mohan could think of.
However, Wei Yumeng didn't think so. "But wouldn't that be me causing trouble for you? Mohan, this project is originally my responsibility. I don't want to fail at this little thing and have to rely on you. I'll doubt my own abilities."
Wei Yumeng truly thought this way. Her illness had only just passed.
Although her life had returned to normal, she could still feel that some people at the company still looked at her with prejudice.
Therefore, she was determined to complete this project.
Only by doing so could she prove to everyone that her illness was indeed cured and that she would not affect her work due to her own problems.
Zhan Mohan saw Wei Yumeng's determined gaze and knew her stubbornness had resurfaced. If he refuted her now, it would only make Wei Yumeng angry.
"Okay, I understand. You can go."
Zhan Mohan finally agreed, "I'll have Fang Xun prepare the tickets. Remember to call me often when you get there."
Wei Yumeng breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving such a response from Zhan Mohan.
It was already half an hour later when Wei Yumeng left Zhan Mohan's office, as they had chatted about other things for a while.
However, she didn't expect that Song Yifan was actually waiting for her outside the office.
"Why are you here?"
Song Yifan looked a little embarrassed. "Sorry, I was a bit worried about President Zhan's decision, so I came over. But it seems like things went smoothly for you."
Wei Yumeng nodded. "Yes, Mohan has agreed. He has always understood me and knows what I want to do."
As she said this, Wei Yumeng felt a warmth in her heart, and even a happy expression appeared on her face.
"I can see that he treats you very well. You are very happy," Song Yifan said, but a hint of sadness appeared on his face.
The closer he got to Wei Yumeng's life, the more he felt that he was no match for Zhan Mohan.
Wei Yumeng didn't notice Song Yifan's feelings and just continued on her own, "I believe you will find a partner who cares about you so much in the future."
"I'll take your good words," Song Yifan smiled at Wei Yumeng.
Zhan Mohan watched the two of them leave, chatting and laughing, and felt a pang of unease in his heart.
Although it was too late to regret it, perhaps he could still make amends in other ways.
"Fang Xun, book three plane tickets to Country A."
"Three?" Fang Xun was a little surprised but complied.
Two days later, Wei Yumeng packed her luggage and went to the airport. She had arranged to meet Song Yifan at the airport.
"Sorry, I'm late."
When Wei Yumeng arrived, she saw that Song Yifan was already there.
Song Yifan just smiled at her and reached out to take the luggage from Wei Yumeng's hand.
"It's fine, I just arrived too. But leave the luggage to the men."
Wei Yumeng originally wanted to take back her luggage, but after hearing Song Yifan's words, she withdrew her hand.
After all, refusing a gentleman's courtesy was somewhat impolite.
"But I'm a little disappointed," Song Yifan said, shaking the plane ticket in his hand. "I thought we could sit together, but we're so far apart."
Wei Yumeng was also a little surprised. If Fang Xun had booked the tickets, they would usually sit together, but there might have been an accident.
However, it wasn't until they boarded the plane that Wei Yumeng understood the reason...
"Mohan, what are you doing here?"
Wei Yumeng never expected that the person sitting next to her would be Zhan Mohan.
Zhan Mohan just hooked his lips at her, "I thought about it and decided I couldn't rest assured with you going such a long distance alone, so I decided to go with you."
Wei Yumeng was naturally happy to be with Zhan Mohan, but thinking about Song Yifan also being there, she felt a bit awkward.
She could only hope that this trip wouldn't be filled with trouble.
