Chapter 5 - Who are you? (1/2)

Maybe it was Lei Zhao's voice that had a soothing effect because Yan Mei stopped struggling and became quiet for a minute. Jun Mo took advantage of this and gave Yan Mei the injection.

”In a while, the medicine will soon disappear from her system. She just has to sleep it off and get some rest. Nothing will happen. Don't worry.”

Lei Zhao looked at Yan Mei and gently wiped the sweat on her forehead. He nodded. ”Okay, thank you.”

Jun Mo snorted, ”I have been treating you for years now, but this is the first time I hear you say thank you. Because of this woman, you are thanking me? Don't tell me you like her?”

Lei Zhao looked at the woman on the bed and ignored Jun Mo. Seeing that Lei Zhao wouldn't talk, Jun Mo sighed, patted Lei Zhao's shoulder, and left.

After Jun Mo left, Lei Zhao went to the window and fell into deep thought. He picked up his phone and made a call.

A few minutes later, Ye Xing appeared with a tablet containing Yan Mei's information.

”Boss, the Yan family were the people who cleared the whereabouts of Miss at the club last time,” Ye Xing said as he gave the tablet to Lei Zhao.

”Hm,” Lei Zhao said as he looked at the tablet.

A glint of light passed through his eyes, reading her information on the tablet. He turned the information page by page and twisted his brows. After a while, he knew a bit about her.

Yan Mei was the daughter of the young Miss of the Yan family who disappeared some years ago.

She created her own jewelry company from scratch, which is now the number one leading jewelry company in the country now. She did not fight for the rights to Yan Cooperation and left it for her uncle to handle.

Her past life experience was utterly blank. Like she never existed at all these years. The only information that he had is from three years ago when she came to the Yan family.

Lei Zhao frowned. 'Who is she that his network can't even find anything about her twenty-three years of existence? What secrets is she hiding?'

He turned to look at the girl who was now peacefully asleep because of the medicine Jun Mo gave her. He sighed faintly.

He couldn't help but feel distressed. For a woman to become this cold and indifferent. He couldn't imagine what she had gone through. Also, it is difficult to start a business from scratch and get to where she was in less than three years.

He couldn't imagine what she would have experienced if he didn't help her tonight. For the first time, Lei Zhao had the desire to protect someone and make her happy. Unbeknownst to Lei Zhao, the woman on the bed was no damsel in distress.

He wondered how she would look if she smiled. He remembered that closed-mouth smile she gave him at the club. She looked so beautiful.
