Wang Yan arrived at Luo wei's work studio the moment he heard news of Ruo Qin.
Luo wei looked at Wang Yan, with a hunch that someone might be following Wang Yan. He checked through the corridor and CCTV, ensuring no one is in the vicinity. That's Luo wei, always cautious of everything around him.
Luo wei tapped on the screen showing a CCTV playback from 6 years ago. The footage was captured by an old CCTV that was meant for capturing speeding cars. Luo wei spent weeks to retrieve this footage and finally something shows up.
Wang Yan watched the footage carefully.
As Ruo Qin appeared on-screen, Wang Yan's gaze changed, starring at all surroundings with his eagle-eyes. As he watched the crash happened, Wang Yan's eyes widen. It was clearly reported that there was only 1 injured casualty. But in the footage, there were 2 casualties!
Wang Yan then watched a lady stepped out of the car to retrieve 1 of the injured.
It was Ruo Qin!
As the lady was back-facing the CCTV camera, there was no way they could have identify that woman by her back view who lifted Ruo Qin into the car.
"Judging by the speed of the car was easily going 130 km/h..And it was a female driver. It's almost impossible for a woman to drive at this speed who doesn't look intoxicated." Luo wei paused the scene as he explained.
"Have you tracked the vehicle license plate?" Wang Yan asked, still staring at the footage.
"That license plate history was entirely wiped out 6 years ago. It seem this accident was planned..." Luo wei responded.
"Where did the car drove to? Have you managed to tracked the location?" Wang Yan's voice was stern. When it comes to Ruo Qin, he will not tolerate any bullshit.
"I'm working on it. But what we can conclude that the deceased from 6 years ago is not Ruo Qin...It's a foul play." Luo wei folded his arms as he stroked his chin in deep thought.
Ruo Qin could probably be still alive.
Wang Yan's expression was frightening, his eyes were raging. Whoever have hurt his Ruo Qin shall pay the price!
"Nobody should know about this." Wang Yan warned. Luo wei nodded.
"Someone's coming." Luo wei's motion sensor sent a signal to his system that recognized any movement on the executive floors. He had every corner monitored. Nothing can escape Luo wei's surveillance.
Luo wei turned off all screens with a tap on his control, avoiding leaking these footages.
"Sir, Director Wang has arrived at Royal W, he wants to see you at once" Renxi entered the room, reporting to Wang Yan. Wang Yan's father is here.

3pm, Royal W Hotel, Executive Lounge
Wang Yan did not have a close relationship with his father ever since he was a kid. In fact, Wang Yan hated his father the most for not being able to protect him, not trusting his words that his stepmother abused him.
However, Wang Yan only treats him like a business partner since his father is one of the board of directors of the Wang International Group.
Wang Yan arrived to meet his father at the lounge, while Mei zhen was already hosting Father Wang on Wang Yan's behalf. In Father Wang's eyes, he already treated Mei zhen as his daughter-in-law, since Father Wang and Mei zhen had a good relationship.
-
Wang Yan: Director Wang.
Father Wang: Yan. I come to ask you to clear your schedule tonight.
Father Wang: I've arranged a dinner with Mei zhen and her parents. We're going to talk about your marriage with Mei zhen.
Wang Yan: My marriage?
Father Wang: Yan, it's about time you need someone to support your business. Mei zhen have been assisting you since in Europe. Shouldn't she be the best partner to marry?
Mei zhen: Yan, if you're busy we can postpone this dinner. It's not really important anyway.
Father Wang: Look! even Mei zhen is so considerate for you, are you going to disappoint?
Wang Yan: ... send Renxi the location.
Mei zhen: Don't worry Father Wang, Yan is a man of his words, he will be there!
-
Wang Yan stood up as he buttoned his blazer, leaving Father Wang to Mei zhen. Wang Yan was careful with Mei zhen as he did not want to hurt her feelings in front of everyone, thus he agreed to turn up for the dinner.
"Sir, do you need me to cancel your appointment with Ms Ziwei tonight?" Renxi asked, realizing there was a clash in Wang Yan's schedule. "No, i will inform her that i'll meet her at a later timing" Wang Yan responded as he sent a text to Ziwei.
--
To Ziwei: I'll pick you after your shift ends tonight. -Wang Yan.
To Wang Yan: Where are we heading? So secretive as always. -Ziwei
To Ziwei: You're wrong, i'm full of surprises. Be prepared. -Wang Yan
To Wang Yan: Yes, yes, yes. Mr Narcissist President Wang. -Ziwei

Wang Yan's mood was slightly lifted up after seeing's Ziwei messages. "Get Ms Ziwei a set of clothes, with jeans if she's wearing a dress or skirt tonight. Her size is 6" Wang Yan instructed Renxi as he remembered the gown Ziwei wore on the night at the VIP event.. "Well noted, Sir." Renxi acknowledged.

5pm, Royal W Hotel, Penthouse
Mei zhen was at the main hall with the 4 VIPs, except Wang Yan.
*DING* the elevator door opened. Ziwei was there to serve some tea & pastries to everyone.
Mei zhen froze with fear, afraid of meeting Ziwei would trigger to recall her past memory.
It was her first meeting with Ziwei.
"Oh! we haven't introduced Ziwei to you." Daniel recalled as he introduced. "Mei zhen, this is our new housekeeper for executive level, she's Ziwei! Remembered the dramatic night we mentioned before?"
As it was Ziwei's first time meeting her, she did not recall anything that happened 6 years ago. She greet Mei zhen politely. "Ms Mei zhen, nice to meet you, i'm Zhao Ziwei, please feel free to let me know if you have any needs." Ziwei bowed.
Mei zhen acted accordingly. "Nni..Nice to meet you Ziwei, i'm the Sales & Operation Director of Royal W hotel, Mei zhen." she extended a weak handshake to Ziwei, she returned the handshake with respect.
Everyone was sipping tea and grabbing a bite of the pastries, except one person. Luo wei.
Luo wei sat there, quietly observed Mei zhen's reaction and behaviour upon meeting Ziwei. It looked awkwardly strange.
Mei zhen is usually full of pride and confidence when it comes to meeting people. But her handshake was slightly sloppy with a little stuttering of her words.
Luo wei is observant as always, but did not mentioned anything as he continued to observe.
