Chapter 53 - 53 53 Afraid Youll Get Hurt
?Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Afraid You’ll Get Hurt Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Afraid You’ll Get Hurt She spent the entire night at his place, deploying all her seductive tricks on him, but he remained as unperturbed as if nothing was happening.
And now she’s supposed to believe he’s straight.
Wouldn’t that be like forcing her to admit that she, Lu Jingyan, lacked charm?
Doesn’t she have any pride?
Lu Jingyan gazed coldly at Sheng Xian on the screen, “Are you sure?”
He looked dead serious, just like a primary school kid, his words seeming to carry an underlying message, “Think carefully before you answer.”
Sheng Xian couldn’t understand what there was to think about and casually “uh-huh” in response.
“I’m his mother…” Lu Jingyan held back the string of expletives that almost burst out, took a deep breath and locked eyes with Sheng Xian in the video for a while, “So, you’re indirectly telling me you can’t perform?”
Sheng Xian’s eyelid twitched involuntarily.
Lu Jingyan laid out two blunt choices for Sheng Xian, “Choose—one is you admit you like men; the other is you can’t perform.”
After all, she would rather die than admit her own charm was the issue.
“…”
This multiple-choice question was as tricky as deciding whether to save the bigger or the smaller one, or who to rescue first if both mom and girlfriend fell into a river.
Sheng Xian felt a familiar throb in her temples.
Lu Jingyan, “What does your silence mean? Don’t tell me you’re both—that because you can’t perform, you’re forced to be the bottom?”
He never allowed others to get close to or understand him, appearing quite inaccessible.
But his attitude towards everyone was always amiable.
As a university professor, he had mentored many students and dealt with some challenging ones. At most, he would coldly say like an emotionless robot, “Handle it yourself,” or “If that’s the case, you might as well stop coming to class and just fail.”
He realized the primary school student in the phone video was really good at getting under his skin.
Just as the primary school student in the video was about to speak, Lu Jingyan, who was practically scared of her, interrupted, “In my eyes, only one person counts as a woman.”
“…”
“Do you know what that means?”
Lu Jingyan opened his mouth.
Worried the primary school mind across the screen might come up with some terrifying interpretation, Sheng Xian paused, then said, “It means, I’m only functional for the one woman I like.”
His voice was soft, enticing in the quiet night.
Lu Jingyan’s heart skipped a beat, and in a panic, avoided Sheng Xian’s gaze, seemingly nonchalant as he asked, “So, have you ever been functional?”
After asking that question, his heart rate sped up, and he suddenly became nervous.
He even felt apprehensive about hearing the answer.
Just when the suspense had become almost unbearable, Sheng Xian finally spoke, “No.”
Lu Jingyan felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his chest, exhaling a long breath of relief.
He didn’t understand why he had been so nervous, just as he didn’t know why he was now feeling relieved. He pondered for a while, attributing this odd and unfamiliar emotion to his inflated ego, not wanting anyone else to surpass his own charm in Sheng Xian’s eyes.
The atmosphere during their video call had been casual, but now, for reasons unknown, it had turned awkward.
Lu Jingyan wasn’t sure if it was his fault, but staring at the phone screen, he couldn’t figure out what to say. In the end, he cleared his throat, “Well, it’s getting late, I need to rest.”
Sheng Xian, “Hmm.”
Lu Jingyan was about to hang up.
Sheng Xian, lifting his eyelids in the video, “In the future, don’t casually tell other men they can’t perform.”
Lu Jingyan let out an “ah,” “Why?”
“…”
Why?
Such topics are not something a lady should be discussing casually with people.
Sheng Xian fell silent for a moment, “I’m afraid you’ll get beaten up.”
Lu Jingyan almost rolled his eyes at Sheng Xian then and there.
“Alright, go to sleep now, I’m hanging up,” Sheng Xian said.
Lu Jingyan stopped Sheng Xian, “Wait a moment.”
Sheng Xian paused, about to press the hang-up button on the screen, “Hmm?”
Supporting his chin, Lu Jingyan stared at Sheng Xian in the video for a few seconds, then moved his face a bit closer to the phone camera, lowered his voice, and whispered, “Big brother, could you loosen your robe a little?”
“…”
“I want to count whether big brother has eight abs.”
“…”
The video was mercilessly hung up by Sheng Xian.
