"A girl," he said warily, repeating himself. "A girl?!"
"A girl," Li Wei nodded. "She asked me out for tomorrow."
"How did you two meet?" Don Quixote felt the hairs on his neck stand up, and alarm bells started blaring in his head. "Does she know you're good at football?"
Li Wei thought for a moment before saying, "Yeah... I think she knows."
"That's all the more reason to be careful!" Don Quixote stood up and paced around the room. "Women. Dangerous creatures. The best liars in the world!"
"I don't think you should paint everyone with the same brush," Li Wei shrugged. "After all, you and Susan seem to work well together."
"We just have a professional, superior-subordinate relationship. It's different," Don Quixote waved his hand dismissively. "The focus is on you. You have a bright future; you can't let a woman drag you down."
'Li Wei thought back to his meeting with Anya, her car, and her background. He didn't think for a second that she would be the one to drag him down.'
