Right then, someone suddenly pushed Zi Su from the back fiercely, causing her to fall towards the dining table.
Zi Su anxiously extended her hand out, wanting to support herself on the table, but unfortunately the table was greasy. She ran into it, her hands slipped, and she pounced on it, her forehead striking the table's edge, the pain immediately making her want to cry, as she temporarily lost consciousness.
There were also despicable people who took advantage of this time to attack her.
Zi Su was numb, she did not know how many times she had been hit, but no matter where she was, she could not catch up to the pain in her forehead.
In the chaos, someone suddenly shouted, "The CEO is here!"
These words had a great effect of deterrence. The people who were surrounding Zi Su a while ago quickly retreated, and the two who caused the most trouble slipped away quickly.
Xie Lan looked at the entrance of the cafeteria with a sinister look. Seeing that Lee Yannan had indeed walked in, with a face that had never been seen before, Xie Lan did not bother with the two women anymore. While everyone's attention was focused on Lee Yannan, he quickly moved towards the back door.
The two women also took advantage of the chaos and headed in that direction.
Lee Yannan spread his legs and quickly reached Zi Su's side. The people around had already tactfully made way for him.
Zi Su had just recovered her strength and her senses had returned to normal. Just as she was about to stand up, a strong arm reached out and scooped her up, "Why are you …"
When Lee Yannan saw the bulge on Zi Su's forehead and her wet eyes, she looked like a volcano that was about to erupt. She looked around: "Who did it!"
The people from earlier looked at each other, not daring to make a sound.
"Very good, you won't say anything, right? I will investigate it thoroughly!" "Now, close the cafeteria. Everyone inside is waiting for questions!" Lee Yannan's eyes were filled with hostility, his dignified gaze swept across the entire audience, and then, he embraced Zi Su. "Follow me to the office, and tell me what happened."
Zi Su looked at Lee Yannan with teary eyes, the weakness in his heart had reached the limit, and as he sobbed, he had no other consciousness at this time. He could only nod meekly and follow out of the canteen.
Only after they entered the elevator did Zi Su's emotions ease up a little. She realized that she was still being embraced by Lee Yannan, as she felt an unprecedented sense of security despite biting her lips and pulling away from him.
Her arms were empty, her heart was also empty, her gaze was gloomy and unclear as she looked at Zi Su who was leaning on the corner of the elevator with his arms around her body.
He couldn't help but take a step toward her.
Zi Su retreated a bit, raised her head and looked at Lee Yannan like a frightened rabbit.
Being pierced by Zi Su's eyes, Lee Yannan's body moved to the side, he stood, and looked in another direction.
The two of them no longer conversed until they got out of the elevator and went into president's office together.
Lee Yannan made Zi Su sit on the sofa at the reception and got someone to bring her a cup of warm water.
Then he went to his desk and picked up the phone.
Zi Su heard that his first call was to call for a doctor, then, to inform the various department leaders to go to the cafeteria to claim the employees of their respective departments and ask them about the past.
Lee Yannan called back after finishing his call. Zi Su had already finished half a cup of warm water, and her mood had more or less calmed down.
In the meantime, she kept looking at him several times.
She could feel that he was very angry.
But she was not afraid of him.
Because he felt that his anger was born for her.
An unfamiliar feeling rose in his heart.
Lee Yannan sat down beside Zi Su, his voice surprisingly warm: "What happened?"
Zi Su thought about what happened earlier, and her eyes couldn't help but become misty again: "Earlier, I was eating, and a woman sitting beside me was talking to me … …"
She gave him a brief account of what had happened.
"This doesn't seem to be a simple matter." After Lee Yannan heard this, his eyes became murderous. He calmed down and said, "Don't worry, no matter if it's someone insulting you, or attacking you, or even someone with ulterior motives, I won't let a single one of them go."
's emotions surged as she looked up at Lee Yannan. She was clearly still the same cold and detached person, and was even a little angry at this moment, but she felt that his current appearance was very charming. She threw her usual protective shell aside and asked gently: "Do you believe everything I say?"
Lee Yannan's eyes flashed, as he replied a little vaguely, "En."
Zi Su recalled her previous conflicts with others, and the way Lee Yannan dealt with things like this. Unavoidably, they turned emotional as she asked, "Why do you always stand on my side when I'm in a dispute with other people?"
She clearly remembered that just now, Lee Yannan had fired his cannon at the people in the cafeteria without even asking about the reason. It was obvious that he was inclined to believe that she was an innocent victim.
When Lee Yannan saw Zi Su's honest appearance, the expression in his eyes deepened, but there was a moment of hesitation. Soon after, he emotionlessly said: "Because you are a person of Lee Family, and the biggest weakness of me is to protect my head."
"I am from the Lee Family?" Zi Su didn't quite understand what Lee Yannan was saying, but his heartbeat unconsciously slowed down.
Lee Yannan covered the emotions in his eyes and uncertainly changed his mindset, "Ever since the day you were brought back to the Lee Family, you have always been a member of the Lee Family, right?"
"Oh."
Zi Su lightly replied to express her understanding.
Oh, she was overthinking it.
However, Lee Yannan's words "because you are from the Lee Family" still made her feel very warm.
For the first time, she felt that she was not an orphan, that she had a family.
Although Lee Yannan was unsatisfied with his arrangements, he had always treated her as his family. Even though he was a little arrogant and had a venomous tongue, he had never let her down in crucial times like this.
When Zi Su was thinking about this, Lee Yannan's gaze unintentionally fell on her face.
At this moment, when she was quietly thinking about something, she was like a kitten with its claws hidden, appearing extremely obedient and lovable.
He even wanted to reach out and touch the "cat," but he was afraid that she would bite again.
He wasn't afraid of being scratched by her, but he couldn't bear to ruin this rare and harmonious atmosphere.
Feeling Lee Yannan's gaze on him, Zi Su realized that she had been distracted, and suspected that had already seen through her thoughts. Feeling embarrassed, she stood up awkwardly: "CEO, I'm going back to my office."
"You don't have to work in the afternoon, so when the doctor comes over to check on you, you can go home and rest."
"I don't think there's much to do now, and I have some work to do today."
"I'll tell someone else to do it."
"Thank you, CEO." Zi Su felt that Lee Yannan was very unreasonable at times, and did not care about other people's feelings. But at times, he would be even more meticulous, so she answered softly with an inexplicable sense of guilt and did not dare to look at him.
"Rest in peace, I will take care of this matter."
When she was closing the door, Zi Su heard Lee Yannan speak. Her tone seemed to still be indifferent, but she was really the one who comforted her.
The power of the heart.
