Zhan Jinzhi was discharged from the hospital quickly and returned to normal life and studies.
The rescued little girl, through the influence of the Zhan Corporation, also found her family.
Originally, all of this should have been a decent outcome, but Wei Yumeng had been having problems these past few days.
In the evening, Zhan Mohan wanted to get close to her.
"Don't touch me!" Wei Yumeng shouted, pushing Zhan Mohan away.
Wei Yumeng stared wide-eyed at Zhan Mohan, as if trying desperately to see who the person in front of her was.
Her body trembled uncontrollably from fear, to the point she couldn't control herself.
But after a moment, Wei Yumeng regretted it. She looked at Zhan Mohan's surprised gaze and felt a surge of self-blame.
"Sorry..."
For some reason, in that instant, Zhan Mohan's face had transformed into someone else's, a man who was enough to be her nightmare, a man who had nearly dragged her to hell.
Wei Yumeng had thought that the incident no longer affected her, that she wasn't such a fragile person, but why was this happening?
Zhan Mohan noticed Wei Yumeng's distress and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Wei Yumeng didn't know how to explain it: "Just now, your face turned into... into Ji Qi, but why would that happen?"
As she said this, she involuntarily showed a hint of fear.
The thought of Ji Qi brought back the memory of that night, when she had almost fallen into Ji Qi's hands.
"Sorry, Mohan, I don't dislike you, I really just..." Wei Yumeng tried to explain earnestly, not wanting this to affect their relationship.
"Don't be nervous, it's okay, I understand."
Zhan Mohan frowned, feeling even more heartache. Didn't this phenomenon prove how much the incident had affected Wei Yumeng?
If he hadn't been by Wei Yumeng's side then, this would never have happened.
"Yumeng, don't be afraid, I'm here. Ji Qi has been arrested, he can't come out to disturb our lives anymore."
As he said this, Zhan Mohan took Wei Yumeng's hand and placed it on his own face: "Touch it, this is my face, your husband's face, not Ji Qi's."
Wei Yumeng traced from Zhan Mohan's cheek to his jawline, then to his eyes, eyebrows, nose, and finally his lips.
Indeed, this handsome face was Zhan Mohan's, not Ji Qi's.
She threw herself into Zhan Mohan's embrace, holding him tightly. Only then could Zhan Mohan's warmth and scent envelop her completely, giving her a sense of security.
Zhan Mohan embraced her back with concern, "Yumeng, why don't I find a doctor for you?"
Zhan Mohan was asking for Wei Yumeng's consent, but also respecting her. After all, no one wanted to see a psychiatrist unnecessarily.
Wei Yumeng nodded. Having been traumatized before, she didn't want her own issues to affect her family's life again.
If the problem could be discovered and treated earlier, it would naturally be a good thing.
The next noon, Zhan Mohan arranged for a psychologist, Xiang Yu, to come.
"Dr. Xiang, this is my wife," Zhan Mohan introduced.
Wei Yumeng also stood up to greet him, "Hello, Dr. Xiang."
Xiang Yu nodded, "You are too kind. I have heard about Mrs. Tai's specific situation, and preliminarily, it can be diagnosed as mild PTSD due to the previous incident."
"PTSD," Wei Yumeng knew the term. Thinking about it, she felt it was quite fitting.
"Next, I need to conduct a detailed examination of Mrs. Tai. I hope Mr. Zhan can wait outside."
Zhan Mohan nodded and said to Wei Yumeng, "I'll be right outside. If there's anything, just call me."
After Wei Yumeng acknowledged this, Zhan Mohan left with some reluctance.
The treatment lasted for nearly an hour. Zhan Mohan waited outside anxiously, occasionally hearing a sound or two from inside the room, which made him want to rush in.
The room door finally opened, and Wei Yumeng walked out with the doctor.
"How is my wife's condition?" Zhan Mohan asked.
"Rest assured, Mrs. Tai's condition is not severe. With appropriate treatment, she will surely recover."
Dr. Xiang paused and continued, "Besides the medication I will prescribe, please pay attention to Mrs. Tai's resting environment. Try to avoid secondary triggers as much as possible, and it would be best to have family or friends accompany her."
"I understand," Zhan Mohan nodded, having taken down all of the doctor's instructions.
Only after seeing the doctor off did Zhan Mohan let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the examination results weren't too serious. Otherwise, he would have truly blamed himself for this.
Even if Wei Yumeng had never blamed him, as the head of the family, he was responsible for the safety of everyone.
"I'm sorry, Mohan, for causing you trouble again."
Wei Yumeng felt a bit guilty. She hated her own fragility. The incident was over, yet it had still caused quite a bit of trouble.
Zhan Mohan simply embraced her gently, "Everything will get better."
In the following days, someone would accompany Wei Yumeng every day, sometimes friends, sometimes the children.
Even some close colleagues from work visited her after hearing about the incident.
This indeed helped Wei Yumeng's condition stabilize considerably.
Although she occasionally recalled the events of that time, the sense of fear had greatly diminished.
"Yumeng, are you really okay now?" Mu Linjing asked, watching TV with Wei Yumeng, still looking worried.
Wei Yumeng smiled at her, "I'm really fine, don't worry."
Mu Linjing still frowned, "Speaking of which, it's partly your fault. Even though Mr. Zhan wasn't there, we all were. You didn't reach out to anyone and carried everything on your own. Have you forgotten I exist as your best friend?"
Wei Yumeng smiled helplessly. She really hadn't thought that much in the heat of the moment.
Besides, it was difficult to involve others in something like that.
She had to pour a glass of juice and hand it to Mu Linjing, "Okay, Jingjing, I know I was wrong about this. I'll offer this juice in place of wine as my apology, how about that?"
"That's more like it," Mu Linjing took the cup and took a sip.
Just then, her phone chimed with a notification.
Mu Linjing instinctively picked it up to look. As soon as she saw the headline of the push notification, her expression turned rather strange.
"What's wrong?" Wei Yumeng instinctively leaned over to look.
Mu Linjing quickly covered it, "Nothing."
"If it's nothing, then why is your face so ghastly?" Wei Yumeng looked at her with disbelief.
But Mu Linjing absolutely could not let Wei Yumeng see that news. If she did, given Wei Yumeng's current state, who knew what might happen.
