“I have never had any contact with the Meng family, but in our line of work, the Meng family has a good reputation. It’s just that they had a lot of bad luck in the past, which is why they have declined,” said the Ghost Hand Doctor. “I can’t be sure whether that medicine can wake Wanwan up right now. It requires research and testing, but there is still a possibility.”
"But I know Wanwan. She would never agree to you having a child with another woman, not even to save her."
Zhan Jingting nodded, "We think the same way, so I never thought of agreeing, but that doesn't mean I can't get that medicine."
"The Meng family's attitude has always been firm. How do you plan to take it?"
Zhan Jingting smiled faintly, "I've been on the defensive for too long; it's time to take the initiative..."
The Ghost Hand Doctor didn't ask any further questions. "Your abilities are beyond doubt. I only have one piece of advice: protect yourself. Wanwan loves you, and she wouldn't want you to suffer any harm because of her."
"I see."
Zhan Jingting walked out of the room, with Jiang Dong standing guard beside him.
The man stopped and asked, "How is the Meng family?"
"In response to your question, Master Zhan, after I released the news that you were going back to the capital, the Meng family came to visit many times, but I refused them all as you instructed. News of the old man's accident has also spread, so they all think that you delayed your return to the capital because of the old man's injury."
Zhan Jingting's gaze deepened. "Let Lin Mo know that the Ghost Hand Doctor has regained his memories."
Jiang Dong analyzed, "Master Zhan said before that Lin Mo is Meng Xinyi's behind-the-scenes strategist. If you let Lin Mo know that the divine doctor has regained his memory, he will think, like everyone else, that the divine doctor can cure the young lady, right?"
"Lin Mo thinks he understands me and knows where my bottom line is, which is why he taught Meng Xinyi. He probably even guessed that even if I disagreed, Xiang Yang would be tempted by the proposal." Zhan Jingting sneered. "He just didn't expect that the old man would wake up at this time. Naturally, I have to take this opportunity to turn the tables."
"We just want to gain absolute control; we haven't gotten the more important things yet."
Jiang Dong nodded. "I'm sorry, Master Zhan, I've been looking for you."
"I don't blame you. I know very well how difficult this is. Just keep looking."
"Yes," Jiang Dong reported. "By the way, Master Zhan, the matter of trying to snatch the young master on the street has been investigated. You were right, it wasn't human traffickers, but a few local thugs from Suzhou. They confessed everything with just a little torture."
Who is it?
"Meng Xinyi".
Zhan Jingting sneered, "Such a basic mistake doesn't seem like Lin Mo's work."
"You mean Lin Mo was unaware of this matter?"
"Naturally, Lin Mo only dared to act as a strategist behind the scenes, trying to break me and Wanwan up, but he knew I was watching him, so he wouldn't dare to openly hurt the people around me."
"Then this matter was Meng Xinyi's own idea."
"Keep those people around, I have a use for them."
"yes."
......
In the hotel, Lin Mo quickly received the news and immediately felt a headache coming on. He leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.
"Brother Mo, what should we do now?" Meng Xinyi asked anxiously. "I heard from my grandfather that the Ghost Hand Doctor has extraordinary medical skills, but he is just too low-key. Otherwise, his reputation would be far greater than it is now. If he can cure Qiao Wanwan, wouldn't I be in a very passive position?"
“It’s more than just being passive,” Lin Mo said coldly. “There are no opportunities left. Zhan Jingting only cares about Qiao Wanwan. The child he hasn’t found is dispensable to him. So finding the child is just icing on the cake and is not as important as that medicine. Once Wanwan wakes up, the clues about the child will not be able to be used as bargaining chips to negotiate with him.”
"What should we do then..." Meng Xinyi became even more anxious. "Is there any way for me to marry Master Zhan?"
"You still want to marry him?" Lin Mo sneered. "You tried to kidnap his child, and you expect him to marry you?"
Meng Xinyi's face turned pale. "Brother Mo, I...I don't know what you're talking about..."
"Still trying to deny it, huh?" Lin Mo slowly opened his eyes, his sharp, cold gaze clashing with his gentle, handsome face. "I can find out, do you think Zhan Jingting can't? You'd better use your brain if you want to use these underhanded tricks. Zhan Jingting is just looking for a reason to attack the Meng family, and you, on the other hand, have personally created such a good opportunity and delivered it to his doorstep. You really love him to the bone, so much so that you don't care about the life or death of your Meng family!"
Meng Xinyi was both shocked and frightened. "Brother Mo, what are you talking about? I didn't mean to harm the Meng family! How could I possibly harm the Meng family!"
"You didn't intend to harm the Meng family, but you're foolish and brainless," Lin Mo questioned. "What exactly were you trying to do by trying to snatch that child?"
Meng Xinyi was on the verge of tears, "I didn't mean to do anything..."
"You're still lying!" Lin Mo narrowed his eyes and sneered, "I forgot to tell you, I minored in psychology in college. Someone of your level can see through your thoughts at a glance."
"You appear gentle and charming on the outside, but you are actually incredibly resilient and ruthless inside," Lin Mo said, enunciating each word clearly. "You want to kill that child so that Zhan Jingting, having no children of his own, will consider having one with you, is that right?"
Meng Xinyi's face turned ashen, and she vehemently denied it, saying, "I didn't! I didn't think that!"
"You can fool others, but you can't fool me. Don't worry, Zhan Jingting will come knocking on our door soon."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Meng Xinyi's phone rang!
She glanced at the screen, swiped to answer the call, "Dad... what? I understand... I'll be right back."
Lin Mo had already guessed what was going on. "Did I hit the nail on the head?"
"Brother Mo, please help me! My dad said that Master Zhan has already gone to the Meng family, and he wants me to go home!" Meng Xinyi pleaded, crying. "I know I was wrong. I really didn't mean to hurt that child. I was just confused for a moment. Please help me, Brother Mo!"
Lin Mo said coldly, "You wouldn't be stupid enough to tell those thugs to kill the child after they've taken him, would you?"
"Of course I didn't say that!"
"That's good." Lin Mo said, "Now that you're going back, since you can't deny it, you'll have to admit it, but you'll have to find a way to cover it up."
Meng Xinyi seemed to understand but not quite, "Is it really possible?"
“The Meng family now has what Zhan Jingting wants, so the initiative is still with the Meng family. Otherwise, do you think Zhan Jingting would have the time to come knocking on your door? He would have razed your Meng family to the ground long ago.”
Meng Xinyi shuddered in fright. "But I'm still scared. Although I love Zhan Ye, he's not gentle at all, and he looks quite intimidating... Last time I went to the hotel to see him, my grandfather took me. I went there to confess my feelings, which gave me the courage. This time is different..."
Lin Mo scoffed, "You have the courage to kill his son, but you don't have the courage to face him?"
