Chapter 30: Chapter 30: Want to Try It Yourself?

Although Cecilia had heard this rumor before, hearing Mona Summers say it so directly still felt a bit strange in her heart.

She coughed lightly, her expression extremely awkward.

"Why are you saying that..."

Mona Summers chuckled sneakily, showing a gossip-filled expression.

"It’s not just me saying it!"

"Cecilia, you might not know, The Eldest Young Master Law has always had the image of an aloof flower. Back then, someone wanted to discuss cooperation and decided to send him a nude beauty, supposedly with a face that could topple a kingdom."

"Guess what happened?"

Cecilia furrowed her brows, associating it with the man’s consistently domineering nature, and tentatively guessed.

"He refused?"

"Not only did he refuse! The Eldest Young Master Law directly had the woman thrown out!"

Mona Summers clicked her tongue in awe, deeply moved by Adrian Law’s lack of compassion for such beauty.

"Cecilia, just think about it, an exceedingly beautiful woman, The Eldest Young Master Law is so ruthless, if he’s not asexual, he must be gay!"

"Pfft——"

Cecilia nearly spit out the sip of water she had just taken upon hearing this.

Throwing out such a delicate beauty...

It really does seem in line with that man’s ruthless style...

For some reason, Cecilia’s lips curved into a slight smile instead.

...

"Cecilia, why are you smiling?"

"Uh... nothing..."

Mona Summers’ curiosity was insatiable, and she couldn’t help but be puzzled again.

"Cecilia, now you’re living together with The Eldest Young Master Law, is he really asexual?! Or does he actually like men?"

Cecilia couldn’t help but recall the scene where her bathrobe had slipped off last time... It seemed Adrian’s self-control was indeed very strong...

"Why are you blushing, don’t tell me something happened between you two...?"

"Of course not!"

Cecilia quickly denied it when she saw her friend’s mischievous expression.

"I think... Adrian probably doesn’t like men, at least I haven’t seen any signs of it so far."

Mona Summers’ cat-like seductive eyes widened, thought for a moment, and quickly made a judgment!

"So, is The Eldest Young Master Law genuinely asexual?!"

"..."

Cecilia was speechless, does it have to be one or the other?

"I don’t know either. After all, Adrian and I have an agreement, it’s a fake marriage, and we don’t interfere in each other’s personal lives."

"..."

This time it was Mona Summers’ turn to be speechless.

"Alright, alright, but The Eldest Young Master Law is so mysterious, I’ve never seen him in the media, he must look pretty good in person, right?"

In Cecilia’s mind, a vivid image of an impeccably handsome face momentarily appeared, and she murmured quietly.

"Not just pretty good... I’ve never seen a man’s appearance be so enchanting."

Practically mesmerizing...

Oh my, that’s such high praise!

Adrian, the appearance obsessive, started drooling just from fantasizing.

"When you have a chance, bring The Eldest Young Master Law out and introduce him! I’m curious about everything you’ve just said!"

"Ah, fake-married to such a handsome guy, even if he’s asexual, it’s worth it just to feast your eyes!"

Cecilia burst into laughter upon hearing this, wondering why every conversation seemed to circle back to this topic...

...

Suddenly, a sound of brisk and powerful footsteps came from outside the door.

Cecilia was stunned for a moment, instantly realizing that the subject of their gossip had returned.

She quickly told Mona Summers they’d chat next time and promptly shut down the computer.

Almost at the same moment, a voice, clear and light as the wind, sounded behind her.

"Why are you in such a hurry, who were you just chatting with?"

Cecilia awkwardly turned around, her gaze immediately meeting a fair and aloof face.

Thinking about how she was discussing such a rated topic with her friend just now, the delicate oval-shaped face suddenly flushed with red clouds.

"I was having a video call with Mona Summers."

With that, Cecilia awkwardly turned her head away, looking like a child caught doing something wrong and reluctant to look directly at him.

"Adrian, you’re home early today..."

The man’s deep eyes narrowed. How could he not realize that Cecilia must have a guilty conscience to be acting so sheepishly?

"Don’t try to change the subject, were you and Mona Summers gossiping about me just now?"

Is this man too perceptive? He could even guess that!

Cecilia was stunned, awkwardly laughed, and without thinking, blurted out.

"Adrian... are you... really incapable..."

As soon as the words left her mouth, cold sweat broke out on Cecilia’s head.

Oh god, kill her now, how could she voice her innermost thoughts out loud!

...

Adrian Law was momentarily stunned, but within three seconds, he realized what this little woman was blabbering about!

He immediately laughed in exasperation!

"Cecilia, do you want to find out yourself whether I’m capable?"

As he spoke, his long, narrow eyes locked onto the girl in front of him as if eyeing prey, exuding a wicked allure.

Cecilia’s face burned red with embarrassment, and she stammeringly lowered her head.

But Adrian Law would not allow her to evade; he reached out and grasped Cecilia’s chin.

"Cecilia, don’t you really want to find out the answer for yourself? Hmm?"

The man’s voice had a slight upward inflection, as if a devil was enticing an innocent angel into temptation.

With a hot breath sprayed on her face, Cecilia finally realized she had really said the wrong thing!

...

Even if Adrian Law was really incapable, she shouldn’t have asked so bluntly!

Isn’t this challenging a man’s dignity?!

Cecilia’s face turned as red as blood, she incoherently begged for mercy and used her hand to push away the man’s large hand.

"Adrian, I’m wrong, I’m wrong, I shouldn’t have doubted you."

Looking at the girl before him who resembled a frightened little deer, a trace of mischief flickered in Adrian’s pitch-black eyes, and he seemed to be smiling teasingly.

"Do you realize your mistake? Will you dare say it again next time?"

"Absolutely not! Never again, next time I definitely..."

Cecilia adamantly promised, and the man absentmindedly brushed away a strand of messy hair by her ear, seemingly threatening in a laissez-faire manner.

"Dare to have a next time?"

"If there really is a next time, I’ll just have to deal with you on the spot to prove myself."

"..."

Cecilia’s head buzzed, and her face turned even redder.

How could he say such things with a straight face!

And if he’s really incapable, isn’t this just empty bluster?

...

Cecilia dared not think further; she quickly smiled awkwardly.

"Adrian, like I said, once the admissions procedures at Stellerton University are settled, I’ll treat you to a meal, so let’s go eat, shall we?"

Knowing full well that the girl in front of him was clumsily changing the subject, but the man, having had his fun with her, was in a much better mood now and soon let her off the hook.

"Alright, let’s go then."

...

As for what to eat, Cecilia left it as a surprise, simply having Adrian Law drive all the way to the dining spot.

However, upon reaching the destination and seeing the rundown and narrow storefront, the man couldn’t help but frown.

"Cecilia, are you sure it’s here?"
