The man's ink-dark, glassy eyes narrowed slightly, and beneath the overhead light, they shimmered with an enigmatic luster. The sharp angles of his gaze made the corners of his eyes seem fierce, rendering his already profound stare somewhat intimidating.
For a moment, Yan Luoxi didn't dare to reach out to retrieve her work badge. She stared blankly at the ID, her throat parched as if scorched, her heart nearly jumping out of her throat. She nervously licked the corner of her lips, silently assuring herself over and over that he couldn't possibly recognize her.
"Um..."
Li Yeqi handed her the work badge. Yan Luoxi quickly reached out to take it, but, too tense, her palm was sweaty, and her fingers inadvertently touched the tips of his.
The contact was like an electric shock. Yan Luoxi immediately withdrew her hand, stammering, "Th-thank you."
The man looked up, his gaze piercing her like a sword, "Ms. Yan seems quite nervous at the sight of me. How come? Do we know each other?"
