Chapter 842 The Reason

Lin Mengwu looked at him in surprise and blinked, as if he could not understand why he said such a thing.

Zhan Jian looked a little embarrassed, as if he didn't understand why he said that.

But a moment later, he said angrily, "Can't I just figure out the reason? You're so hesitant to tell me. Could it be that there was no reason at all, or was it what I thought at first?"

Lin Mengwu didn't understand why he was angry, but there was no need to hide it now. A moment later, he said slowly, "It didn't just happen to me at that time. How accurate is that? I led Ann through a difficult life. On the one hand, I was wary of the search for the Li Family, on the other hand, I had to give Ann a late-stage counseling training. But I didn't expect that Ann had leukemia during a test, and my world was about to collapse. I asked the doctor to match him, but I couldn't. The doctor said that Ann's blood type was a rare one, and it wasn't easy to match. I don't know why I caught up with him. Even if I didn't meet your father, I would have gone to the Li Family to help. After all, it's easier to find a suitable match for such a big family."

"Then why didn't you tell me? If you told me, I would..."

"Will you help me too? Unfortunately, your father found me one step ahead of you." Lin Mengwu smiled bitterly and said, "I just met him in a hurry. I didn't expect him to help me. I didn't even think about it. But he came to me and said he could help me. He even found someone who matched Ann. Do you know who it is? If you knew, you wouldn't think so."

"Could it be..."

"Yes, it's a coincidence that it was your father. But after the bone marrow transplant, the doctor said that Ann's disease was not stable and that he would relapse. So I need to be prepared at any time. In this case, do you think I can leave your father? Even if he couldn't help me again, according to his ability, he could quickly find a suitable candidate for Ann. Sure enough, not long after that, he found a job, a house, and let that person get married and have children here, which was equivalent to keeping him in captivity and preparing for Ann's relapse. But he didn't want to reveal that person's information to me. All these years, I wanted to get out of his control, and I wanted to find the right person myself, but he had been guarding against me, so I didn't have a chance to find him. Now... I've basically given up. Even if he would let us go, Ann wouldn't leave him."

"There's a reason. Have you always had nothing to do with my father?" Zhan Ji asked.

Lin Mengwu looked at him deeply and said, "What do you want us to do?"

Zhan Ji was slightly stunned. He looked away and said, "Of course I hope it doesn't matter."

Lin Mengwu chuckled, "That means nothing. Now you're satisfied!"

Zhan Ji couldn't help but curl his lips, but he quickly suppressed it and his face turned cold. It was as if Lin Mengwu's words had insulted him.

Lin Mengwu sighed and said, "Although I have nothing to do with him, Ann..."

"I know, but your brother is much smarter than you. You don't have to worry about him," Zhan Ji said.

Lin Mengwu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That's what I said, but he's still just a child in my eyes."

Zhan Ji curled his lips speechlessly, "Child? Only you would think that he was a child. Could he do those things? Although he was in the hospital, do you know what he did to strengthen his position and establish his image in the industries under his name? He's not simple. After a long time, I'm not necessarily his opponent."

"You didn't save me to threaten him with me, did you?" Lin Mengwu immediately became alert.

Zhan Ji: ..."

She gritted her teeth in anger and wanted to slap her to wake her up.

"You think too much. I'm not that despicable yet. I just... I just don't want my father to continue to be enemies with the Li Family. Li Chengyan was very angry that the news was released. From yesterday onwards, he has been looking for trouble for our family. Although there was no conflict between us, we had been deeply intertwined over the years, and there were many entanglements. If we really wanted to break up, it would be difficult for everyone to get caught up in the net. Moreover, we were also related to the Li Family, so we were against my mother, and I didn't want to be the enemy of the Li Family. My father is old enough to do anything for that man, but I can't let the war gate fall into a state of siege."

"What you think is profound. Unfortunately, your father may not understand your thoughts."

"Hmph, it's up to him whether he understands or not. I don't want him to understand anyway. I just want to report to the war gate and leave a way for me in the future."

"Then what are you going to do with me?" Lin Mengwu asked again.

Zhan Ji lowered his eyes and said after a moment, "You can stay in a secluded place! Anyway, you go somewhere else and just want to hide for a while. It's better to hide here with me. First, it's safe. Second, you can know what's going on here in time and make a decision in time."

"But are you really not afraid that your father will know?" Lin Mengwu asked again.

Zhan Ji was angry and said angrily, "What do you mean? I'm an adult at least. I'm not a three-year-old child. I'm always afraid of my father."

Lin Mengwu was speechless, but he yelled at her speechless.

The car drove into a villa area and finally into a small villa with a single courtyard.

Zhan Ji asked her to put on her sunglasses and hat and get out of the car. When she reached the house, she took off her sunglasses and hat.

This small villa was only three floors in total, but the decoration was very exquisite, and the things placed inside were very tasteful, so it could be seen that it was seriously decorated.

Lin Mengwu said in surprise, "Is this your place? I live here. You're not afraid..."

"I told you I'm not afraid of my father." Zhan Ji said angrily.

Lin Mengwu curled her lips and whispered, "I'm just worried about getting you involved."

Zhan Ji took a deep breath and explained, "The most dangerous place is the safest place, and my father never comes here. Because my mother died here, he didn't dare to come. As long as you don't go out, no one knows."

"I see. Thank you." Lin Mengwu thanked him.

Zhan Ji added, "But don't worry. My mother only ended up here, but she died in the hospital. You don't have to be afraid."

Lin Mengwu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not afraid even here. I've met your mother. She's a beautiful and elegant woman, but..."

Unfortunately, such a good woman would marry a husband who would never fall in love with her. But the saddest thing was that she still loved him.
