Li An was aware of his charm, as every gesture made those infatuated women hold their breath. In Li An's thoughts and experiences, after that night, Du Zhijun would try her best to show affection towards him, both openly and discreetly.
Although he took dating lightly, he despised office romances the most. He always kept a clear line between work and personal life, strictly separating the two. He didn't want to mix them up; if Du Zhijun showed any inappropriate intentions towards him, regardless of how outstanding she was, he would make her leave.
Yet, after that night, Du Zhijun acted as though nothing had happened, treating Li An exactly the same way as before. Her composed demeanor made Li An feel somewhat guilty.
The previous night they both had been drinking; it was possible she kissed him just because of a moment's impulse and unintentionally. He had overreacted to something trivial.
Li An looked at the mosquito repellent in his hand. If this were another woman, she would probably flatteringly come forward to apply it for him without hesitation—wouldn't want to miss such an opportunity.

"Well... those bags..." Du Zhijun perhaps felt ashamed of her impulsive actions, her face slightly flushed as she pointed to Li An's arm. "You mustn't damage them; the mosquitoes here are very troublesome. If they get damaged, you could contract an infection."
Li An smiled kindly at her and said, "Thank you."
The elevator doors closed again slowly. Suddenly, Li An felt a strong sense of exhaustion wash over him. Could it be that the rest of his long life was going to be spent in such a zombie-like existencer her arrival, yet she was destined to disappoint him. Tears flowed down her face uncontrollably; no one in this world knew of the good man she had disappointed.She did not dare to stay too long in th...
