"Dr. Lin, here's a peace apple for you, wishing you a safe and smooth new year!" Zhu Zhenzhen handed a big red apple to Lin Jie with a cheerful smile.
Lin Jie sized her up, her fluffy long hair made her face look a bit petite, and she wore a barely-there light makeup. Despite wearing just jeans and a light-colored turtleneck sweater, she exuded a strong sense of youthful energy.
This was how a university student should dress and present, Lin Jie thought as he accepted the apple and said, "Thank you, and I wish you all the best in the new year too! It's Christmas Eve today, do you have any plans?"
Before she could reply, Lin Jie hastily added, "I'll be having dinner and watching a movie with my girlfriend, I'm sure it won't be hard for you to find a male classmate to spend the evening with!"
As the daughter of a colleague, someone you see frequently, Lin Jie thought it best to nip any notions she might have in the bud!
