Du Heng's sudden darkening face did not escape Wu Shengnan's notice, wiping away the slight smile she'd previously held.
Only after Du Heng had put down his mobile phone, a gloomy expression on his face, did Wu Shengnan nervously ask, "What happened?"
Du Heng was feeling upset, but he took a deep breath, trying to make his face look better, so as not to let his emotions affect Wu Shengnan. "It's just something related to my job, nothing major."
While Du Heng sounded casual, his discomfort was evident on his face, making Wu Shengnan aware that he wasn't being truthful.
She turned to face him directly, speaking seriously, "You promised me last night. We're dating now; why wouldn't you tell me what's wrong? Do you not trust me, or do you have other thoughts?"
Du Heng's corner of the eye twitched, and he finally divulged after a moment of silence, "My eligibility for the advanced award for the city's Health System next week has been withdrawn."
