Zhang Wei, "I was about to ask... could you explain how you ended up here, all gloomy, drinking and drowning your sorrows as if there were no tomorrow?"

Cai Wenxi's eyes flew open in surprise. "Did I look that bad?"
The thought flitted through her mind—was he exaggerating?

Perhaps to an outsider, she might indeed have seemed so distressed.
Slap!
The realization struck her sharply, prompting her to smack her forehead with her hand before sighing deeply, "See... I didn't mean to come across like that," she clarified.
Zhang Wei nodded understandingly. "You certainly didn't, until you seemed like you were inviting me to console you. I mean, I'm quite adept at offering comfort... want a demo?" Despite maintaining a teasing face, he couldn't resist standing and inching closer to her.
"!"
