"It's precisely because we're friends and I've seen your playboy lifestyle that I won't consider you," Ji Li stated matter-of-factly. "No one is going to dive into a relationship after finding out the other person is a player. I want a partner who can give me peace of mind."
"I'm not looking for a player, and even if he claims to have turned over a new leaf, I still wouldn't consider it."
Ji Li wrinkled her nose as she spoke. "I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to relationships; I can't stand that sort of thing. Just thinking about how... colorful his past was makes my skin crawl."
Wen Zhe's shoulders slumped. "Is there really... no chance?"
