Zhu Junjie, feeling puzzled, said, "Since he is so bold and his injuries have been treated, why does he look like this?"
"Perhaps..."
He couldn't understand why he would recklessly risk his own safety to save Tong Tong. Unable to make sense of it, he remained lost in thought, trapping himself in confusion.
But these were merely Wei Sheng's speculations, unverified. He paused.
"What do you want to say?"
Zhu Junjie felt like a person who had fallen into the ocean; even if there was just a straw in front of him, he would cling to it tightly.
Wei Sheng fell silent as he spoke, his tone anxious.
"Nothing much. I'll find another opportunity to talk to him and see if I can get any answers. If that doesn't work, I'll have the psychologist I prepared for Tong Tong see him first. Psychologists are more precise in addressing issues than we are."
"That's all we can do for now."
Zhu Junjie couldn't think of a better solution and agreed. Since Tong Tong woke up, Zhu Junjie had spent most of his time by her side. Even when she was asleep, neither Zhu Junjie nor Song Lan dared to leave easily.
Tong Tong had been so frightened that she experienced nightmares; having them around helped her feel a bit better.
Song Lan had been physically and mentally exhausted due to the situation with Tong Tong over the past few days.
"Mong Si is willing to save Tong Tong but is unwilling to discuss the process of saving her?"
The fact that someone was saved indicated that Mong Si was afraid of Tong Tong being harmed. Sharing what happened to Tong Tong in the cabin would be beneficial for her recovery; logically, Mong Si should have revealed everything.
Why was he unwilling to speak?
Strange...
"His current state is off; he seems like a wooden man, not cooperating even with eating and relying solely on nutritional fluids. We haven't known him for long and don't understand him; we have no way to communicate with him."
Mong Si's condition now was vastly different from when Song Lan saw him before. Previously, Mong Si had an icy demeanor, exuding an aura that kept people at bay. In the hospital room, Mong Si appeared heavy and lifeless; if it weren't for his breathing and heartbeat, they would have thought he was already dead.
Even more strangely, the dangerous aura that once surrounded him had vanished as well.
The Zhu family learned about Mong Si's injury and specifically visited him at the hospital. The elderly couple looked much older due to the stress from Mong Si's situation, their hair graying significantly.
Seeing their haggard appearance made Song Lan feel heartbroken.
"He... he hasn't suddenly lost his purpose, has he?"
"What does Jiaojiao mean?"
"I have seen information about Mong Si. He has gone through some terrible experiences, and there must be something that keeps him going, allowing him to persist until now. I remember you mentioned that Mong Si hates the Zhu Family, wants Zhu Junjie dead, and aims to destroy Gaoqing, causing pain to Uncle Zhu and Aunt Zhu.
Previously, Uncle Zhu and Aunt Zhu had already clarified the events of the past with Mong Si. He might not believe it verbally, but deep down he probably knows the truth is not as he imagines.
Moreover, the closeness of Junqiao and Tong Tong has made him feel a long-lost sense of family, which has gradually diminished his hatred. That’s why he took the initiative to save Tong Tong. After rescuing her, he realized he could no longer hate; life suddenly felt aimless, making him feel detached from this world."
"Jiaojiao's perspective is not without merit."
"You all should observe for yourselves. When I was in Switzerland, I felt completely lost; although I was alive, I felt like a walking corpse. If it weren't for Yank, I would have thought life had no meaning at all."
At that time, Yang Jiaojiao had a sense of illusion; it didn’t feel like her life—it shouldn’t be like that.
She wanted to seek the truth, yet everything was flawless; she couldn’t find any flaws.
That feeling frightened her; it was only during moments of distraction that she felt safe.
When she returned to reality, the surreal feeling around her scared her, making her want to retreat into her protective shell.
"Fortunately, Manager Yan found you."
Yang Jiaojiao could calmly talk about her life in Switzerland, indicating she had completely moved on.
What she shared greatly inspired Song Lan.
She thanked Yang Jiaojiao.
"Do you really need to be so polite with me? Go ahead and get busy; I need to think carefully about how to tell Yank about Tong Tong."
That day, Yank couldn’t contact Tong Tong, so she asked Yan Wen for help in reaching out.
Yan Wen must have known about Tong Tong's kidnapping at that time, which is why he used charm to kiss her into a state of oxygen deprivation, weakening her ability to think and causing her to forget about asking Tong Tong.
Later when Yank inquired about Yan Wen, knowing his temperament, he would definitely keep things under wraps.
Otherwise, given Yank's relationship with Tong Tong, even if he didn’t train, he would still visit her in the hospital.
Now telling Yank about Tong Tong will surely make him worry about her.
The little one is very understanding; his mood will be affected by this situation.
Yang Jiaojiao recalled the serious expression on the little one's face and couldn't help but feel concerned.
"With you all caring for Tong Tong, she will surely feel the warmth you bring her."
"I hope she feels that warmth and recovers quickly."
After chatting with Song Lan for a while longer, Yang Jiaojiao hung up the phone.
She sat on the sofa, lost in thought. Yan Wen brought the freshly made snacks from Aunt Qing to Yang Jiaojiao, saying, "Aunt Qing made cream cookies, give them a try."
"Oh."
Yang Jiaojiao reached out to take one. She brought the cookie to her lips and noticed that Yan Wen was watching her intently.
With a somewhat dazed expression, she glanced at Yan Wen.
Yan Wen's gaze shifted to the cookie in her hand.
Since giving birth, Yang Jiaojiao had hardly gone out. Her skin was already fair, and now it looked even more radiant, like snow. The small cookie in her hand looked very appealing.
"Do you want to try one, Wen?"
Yang Jiaojiao offered the cookie in her hand to Yan Wen.
Seeing her dazed expression, Yan Wen took a bite from the cookie she was holding and asked, "What were you just thinking about?"
"I was thinking that it's not unacceptable for Er Bao to be away from me. As long as he is safe and sound, that's all that matters."
The situation with Tong Tong had made Yang Jiaojiao's attitude towards Er Bao's absence more indifferent.
"I understand what Jiaojiao means. We need to strengthen the security measures at the old house; we can't let anyone harm Er Bao."
"Manager Yan always sees things that others overlook."
What she intended as a mere compliment prompted Yan Wen to take it seriously and express his intention to protect Er Bao well.
Yang Jiaojiao's tone was playful.
"Jiaojiao, are you teasing me?"
Even calling him Manager Yan!
Yan Wen pinched Yang Jiaojiao's cheek lightly.
He didn't use much force, and Yang Jiaojiao let him pinch her, saying, "Doesn't it feel much better than before?"
Since becoming pregnant, she had been spoiled by Madam and Aunt Qing in various ways.
She wasn't naturally prone to gaining weight, but now she had gained quite a bit; she could feel a layer of flesh around her waist whenever she touched it.
Her once slender waist was gone for good!
Speaking of her figure made Yang Jiaojiao feel a twinge of melancholy.
