It had been two days since that incident, and Wei Yumeng had originally been waiting for an opportunity to explain. However, Zhan Mohan seemed to want to avoid her these days.
Ever since that day, Zhan Mohan had almost always stayed at the company, and he hadn't even come home at night without saying goodbye.
Unable to see Zhan Mohan, Wei Yumeng was also restless. She hadn't even answered the calls from Chai Yanyu during this period.
The two children, seeing Wei Yumeng’s disheveled state, were also a little worried.
"Brother, are we going to eat food with too much salt again today?" Zhan Shiqing asked worriedly.
Hearing this, Zhan Jinzhi couldn't help but cover his forehead. In the past two days, the meals they had were either too salty or too sour. There was even an incident where sugar was mistaken for salt.
This was enough to show how absent-minded Wei Yumeng was.
"Even for the sake of our lives, it seems we must help Mom solve this problem," Zhan Jinzhi said, stroking his chin.
Zhan Shiqing asked curiously, "Then, brother, what should we do?"
"We don't understand adult matters, so I'm afraid we can't directly help," Zhan Jinzhi thought for a moment. "However, we can let others help Mom."
Wei Yumeng had already sighed countless times. She had turned down the job at Feng Group, as she was in no state to do anything properly.
She glanced at her phone, still no call from Zhan Mohan. And the calls she initiated went unanswered.
"Mom," Zhan Shiqing walked over to Wei Yumeng. "Mom, are you thinking about Dad?"
Wei Yumeng hugged Zhan Shiqing. "It's my fault for not being careful and making Dad misunderstand."
Zhan Shiqing opened her big eyes and looked at Wei Yumeng. "Since Dad isn't coming back, why don't Mom go to the company to find Dad?"
Wei Yumeng had thought about it before, but she felt that it was inappropriate to discuss such matters at Zhan's Group.
"Mom, you also know Dad's temper, and Dad loves Mom so much. He's probably just waiting for Mom to take the initiative to find him," Zhan Shiqing said with great conviction.
Wei Yumeng looked at Zhan Shiqing and suddenly felt she had gained courage from her child.
"Okay, I should at least try."
Saying this, Wei Yumeng released Zhan Shiqing, tidied herself up, and went out.
Zhan Shiqing watched Wei Yumeng's receding figure and said to Zhan Jinzhi, "Brother, Mom and Dad will reconcile, right?"
Zhan Jinzhi did not speak. He had a feeling that the misunderstanding between them this time was probably much more serious than before.
He walked into the room and made a call to someone else.
Wei Yumeng had already arrived downstairs at Zhan's Group. Although she had been here countless times before, this time her mood was so different.
She was even a little afraid of what would happen to their family if this matter could not be resolved properly.
Wei Yumeng could not imagine separating from Zhan Mohan, nor could she imagine what she would do if their family broke up because of this.
She took a deep breath, gathered her courage, and walked into the lobby of Zhan's Group.
"Madam." Fang Xun happened to be coming downstairs and saw Wei Yumeng.
"Is Mohan in the company?" Wei Yumeng asked.
Fang Xun's eyes flickered. "Mr. Zhan is in, but..."
Wei Yumeng didn't intend to listen to Fang Xun's second half of the sentence and bypassed him, preparing to go directly to find Mohan.
But Fang Xun blocked her way. "Madam, Mr. Zhan said he doesn't want to see you for now and needs to calm down."
Wei Yumeng, who had some hope, suddenly lost her confidence.
"Madam..." Fang Xun felt bad seeing Wei Yumeng like this, but he couldn't go against Zhan Mohan's instructions.
Wei Yumeng gave a wry smile. "I understand. I'll go back now."
Saying this, she turned and walked out of Zhan's Group. She didn't even know how she got home; her mind was blank the entire way.
She even felt unsure how to face all the possible events that might happen in the future.
She felt that her beautiful life was collapsing bit by bit, like shattered glass.
When Zhan Shiqing saw Wei Yumeng return, she had intended to happily ask how her trip had gone.
But when she saw Wei Yumeng's expression, she dared not say anything.
She had never seen Wei Yumeng with such an expression before, as if she had lost all hope and was heading towards the end.
"Mom..."
Zhan Shiqing walked towards Wei Yumeng with a sad face.
Wei Yumeng hugged Zhan Shiqing and began to cry softly. All she needed was an opportunity to explain, but now Zhan Mohan wouldn't even give her that chance.
Wei Yumeng cried for a long time, until she was so exhausted that she fell asleep.
"Mohan, listen to me!" Wei Yumeng suddenly sat up and stretched out her hand as if trying to hold something back.
But in front of her was Chen Yutong's face.
"Yumeng, you're awake." Chen Yutong was holding a blanket, clearly intending to cover her.
On the other side, Zhan Yangyi also looked at Wei Yumeng with concern. "Yumeng, do you want to go to the hospital for a check-up?"
Wei Yumeng waved her hand. "No, I'm fine, I just..."
As she spoke, she lowered her head. She looked at her hands, feeling lost and helpless.
At this moment, Chen Yutong held her hand. "Yumeng, the children have told us about your situation with Mohan. You've helped us a lot before, so let us help you this time."
Chen Yutong smiled at Wei Yumeng as she spoke.
Zhan Yangyi also agreed. "Since Mohan won't see you, I'll go find him. He won't refuse to see me, his brother. Tell me what you want to say, and I'll help you deliver the message."
Wei Yumeng looked at them with gratitude. This might be the only way to contact Zhan Mohan now.
The two children had been watching them silently from the side. Zhan Shiqing's eyes were still teary. Although she didn't yet understand the seriousness of the matter, Wei Yumeng's feelings had been fully conveyed to her.
As Zhan Yangyi was talking to Wei Yumeng, he suddenly turned and glanced at Zhan Jinzhi, giving him an OK gesture.
Zhan Jinzhi nodded back at him.
Zhan Yangyi felt that Zhan Jinzhi, despite his young age, was quite intelligent. He even wished they had a son like him.
In fact, Zhan Yangyi was found by Zhan Jinzhi, and Chen Yutong probably heard about the matter, so she came with Zhan Yangyi. Initially, he had thought of Mu Linjing, but Mu Linjing was an outsider and had no reason to meet Zhan Mohan alone.
However, Zhan Yangyi and Chen Yutong were different. They were also considered Zhan Mohan's family, and Zhan Mohan would not possibly avoid seeing them.
Therefore, his only hope now was that Zhan Yangyi and Chen Yutong could truly resolve this matter.
