"I am deeply sorry, Miss Pei. I don't intend to make use of you, but things are a little complicated, and I suddenly find myself in need of a fake girlfriend to use as a cover," Wen Qimo explained at Pei Ge with an apologetic look.
"Fake girlfriend? Cover?" She was struck dumb by his answer. "With your qualities, why would you need to use a blind date partner as a cover? That's not right! You are so handsome; even if you need someone to be your fake girlfriend, you don't need someone like me."
His reply only made her more confused of the situation.
When Pei Ge did not take his words at face value and, instead, calmly analyzed everything, his impression of her went up a few more notches.
"It's no good to find anyone else." He lifted his cup and sipped the coffee within before continuing in a business-like tone, "It always ends badly."
