As Mr. Ying parked the car, the three of them left the vehicle, Wang Lei patiently waiting for his secretary.

Even though that she is in a daze, he is still caring towards her, letting her take her time since this is indeed too difficult for her to handle.

Seeing Yu Yan already out of the car and is composing herself, Mr. Ying actually felt worried and concerned for her, making him sigh as he made a suggestion.

"Mr. Wang Lei, if you want, we can let Miss Yu Yan wait by the lobby of the hotel and—"

"You wait with her," Wang Lei interrupted, already seeing the dilemma. "I will handle that stupid man alone. Do watch over her, alright?"

"Yes, Mr. Wang Lei," Mr. Ying agreed, giving him a small bow. "If you need anything else with the evidences, please do call my attention with a call. I will be immediately there."

"Alright," Wang Lei nodded, Yu Yan's eyes widening as she heard the word "evidences."

"Evidences?" Yu Yan asked, wondering as she was following the two men in front of her. "What evidences are you talking about?"

Before entering the hotel as the employees already recognized their boss from afar, Wang Lei turned his body to look at Yu Yan. The moment he met her eyes, he answered her question, making Yu Yan's heart race in her chest.

"You don't need to worry, Yu Yan. I have done investigations and knew what he wanted to do to you. You will get the justice you deserve—it's lucky that you have landed a job in my company."

"Mr. Wang Lei…"

Not believing what she has heard, she felt her legs weakening, already feeling grateful that her boss is doing this for her.

At first, he saw Wang Lei as an arrogant and flirty person—acting like this because he thinks he's high and mighty with how much he has achieved in the company.

However, with him telling that he is helping her in her cases with how Qing Yuan is making things impossible for her to throw a lawsuit, she felt happy that she can now have the freedom that she wants after this all ends.

Without expecting a reply, Wang Lei already entered the hotel, walking towards the hotel room that Mr. Ying has reserved for them.

With this hotel being one of those buildings under his name, it made his arrival easier, already expectant to meet this wretched man and fight for his secretary.

As Yu Yan saw his retreating figure, she instinctively reached out to him, feeling nervous for him as she knew that Qing Yuan is a powerful man as well, in his own terms.

"You don't have to worry," Mr. Ying said, putting his hand on the secretary's shoulder. "Mr. Wang Lei is powerful—more than you think that he is. He can handle this—Mr. Qing Yuan is of no match to him."

Hearing this, Yu Yan couldn't help but to keep her tears at bay. With her running her hand through her hair as she sighed, she shook her head, too, already talking to Mr. Ying.

"Can I have a drink while we wait? To be honest, I'm still uneasy."

"Sure," Mr. Ying answered her, both of them already walking to the hotel's restaurant. "I will immediately book us a table. Don't worry."

As they walked towards the restaurant, Mr. Ying immediately talked to the host that was present. With him recognizing Mr. Ying right away, he immediately led him and Yu Yan to the nicest table present in the restaurant without even having the need to do an advanced reservation.

Both of them sat across each other. With them already settled down, Mr. Ying immediately ordered without even looking at the menu, the host also taking it down since he immediately told their order.

"Can we have the chef's special for lunch, please? Oh, and then something relaxing for the young miss. A drink or a dessert, perhaps?"

"Of course, Mr. Ying," the host said, already talking to the nearest waiter to let him inform the chef of the restaurant on their order.

With Yu Yan still silent, Mr. Ying gave her a small smile. With him reaching out to her hand to cheer her up, Yu Yan then stared at the middle-aged man, feeling encouraged even though both of them rarely talk to each other and are only familiar of each other through looks.

"Don't worry. Your safety is guaranteed. When I investigated about him, I was so surprised, too. You don't deserve such treatment," he said as he shook his head, disappointed at Qing Yuan. "I'm sorry, I am in no position to tell you this, but I'm glad Mr. Wang Lei is settling this."

"Thank you," Yu Yan thanked him, giving him a small smile. "If I can ask… what prompted the boss to do a research about me?"

"It was when he saw your son and got curious. When I investigated for him, I was surprised to know the background, too. The young boss may act all smug, but he is a good man at heart, Miss Yu Yan. He doesn't tolerate people taking advantage of people and not doing his or her responsibilities."

With that heard, their order came earlier than expected. It's as if they were the only customers when in fact, their orders had been prioritized since they are directly working under the owner of the hotel, Mr. Wang Lei.

They were having braised chicken with buttered asparagus. To be honest, when the food came in front of them, Yu Yan felt how hungry she is, already eating with Mr. Ying as they continued conversing with each other in order for her to forget her worries and relax.

However, with Yu Yan still feeling nervous deep in her chest, she hopes that the talk between Wang Lei and Qing Yuan won't be too much.

She doesn't want Wang Lei to be stressed just because of her…
