Mu Linjing listened to Wei Yumeng explain Zhan Mohan's current attitude and felt angry, even transferring her anger to Zhan Yichen, who was beside her.
"Why are the men in your Zhan family so unreliable! I really don't understand. Why, even now, does Zhan Mohan still not believe Yumeng? What does he want?"
Now, in Mu Linjing's mind, Zhan Mohan had been categorized as a scumbag.
Zhan Yichen said helplessly, "Wife, this has nothing to do with me, don't include me. Besides... I actually don't think my brother is that kind of person."
But no matter how much he defended Zhan Mohan now, it was useless. The two women were simply not listening to him.
"Yumeng, you can stay here for the next few days to avoid being wronged at home. I will help you figure this out, and then let Zhan Mohan realize his mistake and regret it."
Mu Linjing said, reaching out to pull Wei Yumeng's hand, "No matter what, I will always believe you and always stand by your side."
Wei Yumeng looked at Mu Linjing, her eyes filled with emotion. The contrast between Zhan Mohan's attitude and Mu Linjing's trust was stark.
"Jingjing..." Wei Yumeng hugged Mu Linjing, as if releasing all the grievances of the past few days. She hugged Mu Linjing and cried.
Zhan Yichen watched the two women, feeling helpless. But as a man, he couldn't interject at this moment. After pouring them both a glass of hot water, he went to do his own thing.
However, he did not forget to text Zhan Mohan to inform him of Wei Yumeng's situation, at least so that Zhan Mohan wouldn't worry about Wei Yumeng's whereabouts for the next few days.
To help Wei Yumeng, Mu Linjing also began to investigate the matter. However, together they thought of many possibilities, even investigating the situation at the hotel and the person who booked the room, but found no useful clues.
"Yumeng, I'm sorry. I thought we could find a way to prove your innocence together, but now..." Mu Linjing sighed. She hadn't expected the other party to be so meticulous; they had thought of everything.
First, the list of people who booked the hotel. They contacted that person, and he did exist. However, he was just helping someone book a hotel and didn't even know who that person was. Although someone saw the person who took Wei Yumeng and Qiu Zhun to the hotel that day, no one could describe their appearance.
"It's okay." Although Wei Yumeng was also disappointed, she couldn't let Mu Linjing feel bad with her. "I believe that as long as we work hard, we will find clues."
Just then, the door of the coffee shop opened, and an unexpected person walked in. It was Wen Xueshan. This was the first time Wei Yumeng had seen Wen Xueshan since the airport incident. She didn't know how Qiu Zhun had told Wen Xueshan about the matter, nor did she know Wen Xueshan's attitude towards it. The atmosphere was incredibly awkward.
This was also something Wen Xueshan hadn't expected. She had come here today to meet an important person and didn't expect Wei Yumeng to be there. She subconsciously glanced at the person in the corner, who instinctively pulled down the brim of his hat.
Despite the awkward atmosphere, Wen Xueshan still walked towards Wei Yumeng. However, her expression was not very good. As she walked, she wondered how to speak to Wei Yumeng and how to react normally. Wei Yumeng was also pondering the same questions.
"Um... long time no see. Have you been well these past few days?" Wei Yumeng felt awkward after she spoke. Mu Linjing instinctively shielded Wei Yumeng, as she didn't believe these two could still get along peacefully after what had happened. Moreover, Mu Linjing already had a bad impression of Wen Xueshan.
Wen Xueshan did not give Wei Yumeng a good look, but sat down opposite them. "How could I be well? How can you expect me to accept that incident calmly?" Wen Xueshan's eyes reddened again, looking wronged. "Wei Yumeng, can you tell me why things turned out this way? Why did this happen when I finally reached this point with Azhun? Although I promised Azhun to remain calm, how can I be calm!"
Wei Yumeng also felt sad but explained, "It wasn't like that. Don't overthink it. I'm investigating the truth now, and I think Qiu Zhun is doing the same. We just need time."
"Yes, yes, yes. Only the two of you were there. You can say whatever you want. If you continue to use the excuse of investigating, do I have to wait forever?" Wen Xueshan said, becoming agitated. "Do you want me to continue being a fool, constantly deceiving myself that there's nothing between you?"
Wei Yumeng couldn't answer this question because she couldn't prove the truth, so anything she said was futile. Mu Linjing, however, could no longer listen. "Miss Wen, I know this has been a huge blow to you, but isn't this just as bad for Yumeng? She encountered such a thing for no reason. You're not the only one facing relationship problems!" She was simply indignant for Wei Yumeng, who was also a victim but was being slandered by Wen Xueshan. She didn't care about Wen Xueshan and Qiu Zhun; she only cared about her best friend.
"It's okay, Jingjing. I can understand her feelings." Wei Yumeng stopped Mu Linjing. Moreover, it was already fortunate that Wen Xueshan's depression had not worsened; it was best not to provoke her deliberately.
While they were talking, the person who had been sitting in the corner took the opportunity to slip away stealthily.
"Wei Yumeng, I hope you clarify your identity. You are always CEO Zhan's wife. With you doing such things, I truly feel sorry for CEO Zhan. How could he have fancied a woman like you?"
Wen Xueshan mentioning Zhan Mohan at this time would only make Wei Yumeng more disheartened. Wasn't his opinion what she was most worried about now?
Mu Linjing sensed Wei Yumeng's emotional change and became even angrier. "Wen Xueshan, that's enough! Instead of making sarcastic remarks here, why don't you go back and manage your Mr. Qiu? Perhaps he's the one behind all this! It's not just Yumeng who's involved. Why are you only suspecting her?"
Wen Xueshan's face changed for the worse upon hearing this. She felt her inner displeasure growing, making her unable to contain her anger.
