Wang Lei already entered the hotel room that they have reserved so he could privately talk with Qing Yuan.

The moment he entered in the room, Wang Lei's trusted bodyguard is already inside, giving him a bow. Immediately, Qing Yuan stood up from his seat as well, greeting the owner of the hotel with a wide grin on his face.

"Good day, Mr. Wang Lei," he greeted, Wang Lei, acknowledging him with a nod and then with a quick handshake. "I wasn't expecting you to call our company since ours is not really at par with yours."

Hearing this, Wang Lei arched a brow at him, already sitting across Qing Yuan. Noticing that his words may have double meaning, Qing Yuan widened his eyes in surprise, putting his hand on his mouth for a brief moment then explained himself.

"Oh! I-I mean… by not really at par with yours is that your companies and you, yourself, are very great, Mr. Wang Lei. Please don't misunderstand. Hehe…"

With him clearing his intentions and with him letting out a nervous chuckle at the same time, Wang Lei nodded, already looking at his bodyguard that was standing by the side.

"Please signal them to bring in the food now that I'm here."

With a nod, the bodyguard communicated with the chef of the hotel in a whisper through the intercom, Qing Yuan and Wang Lei already waiting for the food.

"I was told that the food will come in five minutes, Mr. Wang Lei," the bodyguard said, Wang Lei, nodding in approval.

"It's alright. I don't think Mr. Qing Yuan can eat with me around," he said sarcastically, though little did Qing Yuan know that there is meaning behind what he said—the man seeing it as a joke.

"You're absolutely right," Qing Yuan said, taking a sip of his sweet wine from his wine glass. "I can't believe that you have set up a meeting with me, Mr. Wang Lei. To be honest, I've been wanting to have a talk with you when it comes to some of our companies being affiliated with yours."

With this said to Wang Lei, the man who owned this very hotel couldn't help but let out a small smile. With him nodding slowly at what Qing Yuan had said, he got his wine glass as well and took a sip, asking him a question afterward.

"What do you suggest? Since we're here for a talk, I will listen to you," Wang Lei asked and said, Qing Yuan, looking at him excitedly as he proposed what he thinks is good for the benefit of his company.

"If you would want, Mr. Wang Lei, you could put in a good name in our enterprise in the business world! I would like to have direct connections and be partners with W&S Inc., as the first step?"

"Hmm…"

Wang Lei nodded, the door of their hotel room suddenly opening. Without him saying a word yet as the waiter and the chef personally arrived to deliver their food, they served him their lunch, Qing Yuan excited to actually eat the food.

However, with Wang Lei not saying a word and without him touching his food yet, he found it rude to start without him first, so he waited, even though the inviting smell of the steak is already tempting to him.

With Wang Lei circling the wine in his wine glass on the palm of his hand, he looked at the food the moment the chef and the waiter left, his eyes then drifting back to Qing Yuan who was before him.

"I would like to make the proposal happen."

With what he said, Qing Yuan widened his eyes, astonished. With him exclaiming, having the difficulty to express his words coherently, he calmed himself down by drinking his wine in one down, trying his best to relax.

"I-I… th-this! Thank you so much, Mr. Wang Lei! I didn't expect you to actually approve with this immediately--right off the bat that I suggested it! Thank you so much! I won't let you down!"

With Wang Lei suddenly letting out a scoff, Qing Yuan was suddenly taken aback, not expecting the gesture.

The moment Wang Lei put his wine glass down on the table and then glared at him, what he said next made Qing Yuan's heart sink, feeling chills around the room that they are in.

"I would like to make the proposal happen… but how, if your reputation that you were so desperate to keep was dug and found out by me?"

Hearing this, Qing Yuan couldn't speak for a while. He knitted his brows together, not understanding what he meant by "reputation that he was so desperate to keep."

'W-wait… he doesn't mean that…'

With the thought and image of Yu Yan coming to mind, Qing Yuan closed his eyes and let out a scoff, probably understanding what Wang Lei meant.

"Oh, don't worry, Mr. Wang Lei. I will do my best to keep my reputation safe if that's what you're worried about. That woman—I found out about her location and I will make sure that I will deal with her so she won't tarnish my name."

Hearing this, Wang Lei smiled at Qing Yuan. However, behind that smile is his wrath and anger towards him—one thing that Qing Yuan didn't understand.

He even had the audacity to tell him that he will take care of Yu Yan to make sure she won't tarnish his name! How absurd!

With Wang Lei turning his head to look at his bodyguard, he gestured to him to do an order, along with what he said:

"Ask them to enter the room and tell them I need them."

Further understanding what his boss had meant, he immediately signaled Mr. Ying. With him talking to him in a whisper through the small intercom, the bodyguard then nodded back to Wang Lei, already telling them that they are on their way.

Qing Yuan didn't know why… but he suddenly felt nervous, making him chuckle as he looked at Wang Lei with fear in his eyes.

"Mr. Wang Lei, if I may ask…" he started, forcing himself to smile. "Can you please tell me your final decision?"

Without saying a word, the door of the hotel room suddenly opened. The moment it did, Qing Yuan heard footsteps from behind him, making him instinctively look at them.

The moment his eyes landed on the woman he was desperate to look for, his eyes widened in disbelief, the woman having an icy glare as she tried her best to keep her composure, facing the man right here and then with the help of his boss.

"Mr. Wang Lei," Yu Yan spoke, giving Wang Lei a small bow, with Mr. Ying behind her. "You called for us?"

"Yes, Miss Yu Yan."

Wang Lei confirmed, his eyes not leaving the man before him.

"It seems that I need you here with me to let Mr. Qing Yuan understand what I meant behind my words and smiles since he can't read between the lines."
