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."

Qing Yuan can't believe that the woman he was searching for so long is actually working for Wang Lei, now understanding why he can't look for her!

With him telling his connections to not give her possible jobs whenever she applied, it did not occur to him that Yu Yan would actually take the risk of applying to Wang Lei's company!

He always thought that Yu Yan would give up looking for a job with a baby boy under her wing, too. But little did he know that Yu Yan was a fighter and that she applied in Wang Lei's company in hopes that she would be hired.

And yes, she is indeed hired!

With her also working under him, of course, Qing Yuan had no other means to know about this other than this moment since he doesn't have possible connections and searches about Wang Lei's family since he is one of the powerful and influential families in the city…

And of course, in the country!

As Yu Yan was standing beside Wang Lei, Mr. Ying was right behind them, prepared in case that he is asked about evidences.

"M-Mr. Wang Lei..."

Qing Yuan broke the silence, forcing out a smile on his face. He noticed that his wine is already depleted, which made him sigh since there are no longer drinks that would calm him down.

"You have such a great secretary beside you," he commented, Wang Lei, nodding in agreement.

"Indeed. Miss Yu Yan is indeed a great secretary. She has been doing her job more than I expected her to and would always deliver great results."

With that told, Wang Lei got his knife and fork, proceeding to slice his steak with a smile on his face.

"Oh, do eat your lunch, Mr. Qing Yuan. You must be famished," he said, with sarcasm in his voice.

Qing Yuan's hands on his lap that was hidden under the table turned into tight fists. How could he eat this delicious steak… if he is now worried about what Wang Lei has found out about him!?

'Please… don't tell me he knows about my son with that woman and about what I did to that woman…'

"Mr. Qing Yuan..."

Wang Lei started, breaking the man before him from his stupor.

"If I may ask you, who is this lady that you are talking about when it comes to your reputation?" he asked, Qing Yuan, internally sighing in relief as he thought that in that question, he may not know that it's Yu Yan.

"Oh, Mr. Wang Lei. D-don't worry—she's just an ordinary lady who is only taking advantage of me because of my wealth! That is all—I will dispose of her soon."

Hearing this, Yu Yan's hands that were behind her trembled in anger, her lips turning into a tight line. With Mr. Ying noticing this, he applauded the woman's control of her temper, not acting rash at the same time as she is also in the presence of her boss.

If Mr. Ying is in her position, he would probably immediately lash on to him and rip his hair off until he becomes bald, even though he knows that his boss is helping, too.

"Hmm… do you want me to tell you something about me, Mr. Qing Yuan?"

The moment Wang Lei said this, the man trembled on his seat, gulping at the same time. With Wang Lei slowly chewing his steak and then swallowing it as his eyes never left Qing Yuan for a second, he spoke after he wiped the corner of his lips with a table napkin.

"I hate liars the most."

Qing Yuan widened his eyes, letting out an awkward laugh as he tried his best to make the atmosphere light now that it is becoming heavier by the second.

"Oh, l-liars? I, uh… yes! Who wouldn't hate liars?"

As Qing Yuan nervously chuckled, Wang Lei's lips curled into an evil smirk. With him putting his fork and knife down, he crossed his leg over the other, his back already resting on the chair as he glared at Qing Yuan.

"So, are you willing to admit to me that you hate yourself now since you said 'who wouldn't hate liars?'"

Qing Yuan did another gulp. With him feigning ignorance, he let out another laugh, sweat starting to trickle down his forehead, already wanting to leave the hotel room as he made an excuse.

"Excuse me, Mr. Wang Lei. I have a meeting with a stockholder soon and I would like to arrive in the office as earlier as possible."

As he was about to stand up from his seat, the bodyguard swiftly walked to the hotel room's door to block his exit, Qing Yuan's body stiffening as Mr. Ying spoke and talked to his boss.

"He has cleared all of his schedule, Mr. Wang Lei, just so he could meet with you. There are no meetings scheduled the last time I checked with his secretary."

'Th-this!'

Qing Yuan felt his whole body turn into a block of ice.

'He has contacted my secretary about this!? Where is the loyalty of that blockhead!?'

With a smirk coming to Wang Lei's face, he let out a chuckle, already talking to Qing Yuan. His words were icy, sending shivers down his spine as he addressed to him.

"You were right about one thing despite being a liar, Mr. Qing Yuan. I am powerful and that you are completely aware… of how I now hold you on the palm of my hand like a toy."
