"Yeah! Very good! You did a good job, but don't let anyone doubt you. I still have something for you to do." The man smiled meaningfully.
At this time, I vaguely heard Dad Shang asking the man something on the phone, and the man replied loudly and deliberately: "Uncle, our expedition team will stay in the mountains for a while, please excuse me..."
"No trouble, no trouble!" Dad Shang said politely.
"I heard? Your father and mother are both very good..." The man smiled coldly, "Don't expect Feng Hao to help you. No matter how powerful he is, he is beyond your reach. Don't use your brain."
"I won't, I won't... Sir, as long as my parents are well and as long as you don't hurt them, I will do whatever you say." Shang Mengwan quickly promised.
"When things are done, I will naturally leave here. But if you dare to talk nonsense, I will..." The man paused here.
"I won't tell, I won't tell," Shang Mengwan quickly explained in panic, "You believe me."
A man's sinister smile came from the phone, followed by a beeping busy tone.
"Hey! Hello!" Shang Mengwan's body was limp, and the hand holding the phone was covered in sweat.
When she received the threatening call from this man, she also thought about telling Xia Mingyou, but she really didn't dare. After all, no matter how fast she moved, she couldn't be as fast as that man!
The person who caused trouble to her, Shang Mengwan, was Xia Yucheng. And she didn't want to cause trouble to her innocent parents again because of herself.
Who is that man? What is the purpose of doing this? She knows nothing and can only obey orders to save her elderly parents.
After sitting blankly for a while, Shang Mengwan called Xia Mingyou. The ringing rang for a long time and finally the call was answered.
"Brother Mingyou, I'm sorry," Shang Mengwan covered her mouth and burst into tears. She knew that her words hurt this man, "I shouldn't have said those angry words..."
After a long silence, he said: "Forget it, I shouldn't... take action..."
"Where are you?"
Xia Mingyou said nothing.
"Brother Mingyou, I'm sorry... I'm just confused... I know I'm not worthy of you... I know..."
"Wan'er, go get the evidence tomorrow! If this can put your mind at ease." Xia Mingyou's tone was low and calm, and neither dissatisfaction nor joy could be heard.
Shang Mengwan lowered her head, her face full of tears.
What is this? Isn't he happy? Is it just to give her an explanation? What she wants is his heart, his love, and his affection.
She even wished that she was not Shang Mengwan, but Xia Yucheng.
That way, she can be carefully cared for by this man, held in his hands, and placed in the warmest place in his heart.
"Wan'er, think about it carefully!"
"Brother Mingyou..." Shang Mengwan choked, "Come back tonight and let's have a good talk!"
The other end responded and hung up the phone.
The children's laughter floated in the sky above the atrium garden, but Shang Mengwan's mood was always dark and without light...

In the evening, Xia Mingyou came back with a thermos bucket. He brought the soup to the hospital during dinner time. As expected, when Xia Yucheng heard that Jian Yuwei had made it herself, she just said, "I don't dare to bother anymore."
Mom was stunned and didn’t take a sip.
"Mingyou, is Chengcheng feeling better? Have you had some soup? Did you say you want to see me?" Jian Yuwei asked anxiously.
