Chapter 1730: Don’t You Think It’s Absurd?
“Teacher Luna is naturally different from the others.” Mag nodded with a smile. As part of the first batch of partners for the foundation, Mag would receive the operation report of the foundation every month. From where the money would go to the source of the funds, everything would be documented neatly in a table, and that could prove how much effort Teacher Luna had put into the foundation.
Harrison kept the contract, and told Mag, “Oh, right. There’s something else too. The day after tomorrow is a good day, and we decided to open the restaurant on that day. Would you be free to show us some support?”
Mag thought for a while, and replied, “I’ll go over after the morning operation hours, then.”
“Alright. That’s settled then. I’ll go back and let them know.” Harrison left in a horse-drawn carriage with a smile.
Mag watched the horse-drawn carriage disappear into the distance before turning back to enter the restaurant.
Harrison was not lacking money. He did all that just because he was a very helpful person. This was a good deed because now half of the profits for the mutton restaurant would go to the foundation, and it could help numerous children.
The restaurant was cleaned, and the ladies left one after another, except for Angela.
“Aren’t you going back to the dormitory to rest?” Mag asked in shock when he walked out from the kitchen with a pot of black tea.
“The work in the morning was very relaxed. It wasn’t tiring at all.” Angela sat in front of Mag, and gazed deeply at him as he was pouring tea out.
“Is anything the matter?” Mag asked as he placed a cup of black tea in front of her.
“I’m a little curious.” Angela watched him with her blue eyes.
“Being curious about a man is usually the start of an infatuation,” Mag said calmly as he picked up his cup of tea and blew on it.
“I would never be infatuated with a man,” Angela said as she pressed her lips together.
Mag glanced at Angela. He didn’t expect Angela and Camilla to be of the same kind.
“Don’t be too curious about a woman, otherwise you might be bewitched.” Angela smiled seductively.
“You’re not there yet.” Mag retracted his gaze.
Angela’s smile froze, and she glared at Mag. No other man had ever dismissed her like this.
However, she looked at Mag and quickly let it go, saying, “It’s alright. I know you have some unmentionable reasons. I can understand that.”
“Unmentionable reasons?” Mag raised his brow. That was akin to saying that he was incapable.
How could a man say that he was incapable!
“Or maybe… you like men?” Angela’s eyes lit up. She felt as though she found out something interesting.
“In that case, I wouldn’t have hired you as a service staff.” Mag rolled his eyes. This lady really dared to imagine anything and everything.
“That’s true.” Angela nodded. Mamy Restaurant only had female service staff, and every one of them was stunning.
A normal person would think that this owner was a capable and lecherous fellow. Of course, she acknowledged the former point. Mag was indeed one of the most capable human males she had seen. He could make even the most powerful of people follow his rules just because of the delicacies he made.
As for the second point, she had yet to see Mag harass any of the service staff until now, and neither had she heard any of the ladies complain about Mag being improper with his words or actions. He seemed to be very polite and respectful towards anyone.
That was what puzzled her the most.
Mag had a daughter, but no one had seen the lady boss before.
A handsome and wealthy man with beautiful ladies around him, and loads of others who wanted to marry him, actually had no scandals at all?
“Looks like you’re really incapable.” Angela sighed.
“Women who usually say these kinds of things would want to gain an unusual plot twist because of a man’s rebellious nature.” Mag glanced at Angela. No matter how he looked at her, she was indeed a bewitching seducer.
Angela leaned back into her chair a little nervously. She felt as though Mag could see through her.
“But it’s such a pity. I’m not such a man.” Mag took a sip of his tea, and leaned back in his chair leisurely. He smilingly said, “To remain gentlemanly is expected of a gentleman. As for whether I am capable or not, you’re not the one to test it out.”
“I… I’m not trying!” Angela’s face flushed red. Although she had met various of her people after going out for a few days, and had learned a lot through them, she still felt trashed by Mag in terms of teasing.
The corners of Mag’s lips rose. As an unqualified succubus, she was still too green to pit herself against him. He proudly said, “Speak, what do you want to say?”
“Ahem, ahem…” Angela let out two dry coughs to conceal her awkwardness. Her eyes darted around as she said, “I’m just a little curious as to why Princess Irina would be staying in the restaurant, and I heard that she has a partner. A very formidable man.”
“Yes. I am her partner. This suave man before you is that man.” Mag raised his brow, and said, “How formidable am I?”
“I heard that he could fly in the sky and dig up the ground. He had a 200-meter-saber, and could cut down a giant dragon’s head in a single slash. That’s why he’s also called the dragon slayer.
“I even heard that he was ambushed by tens of 10th-tier powerhouses on a rainy night three years ago, and he managed to kill them and escape.
“I also heard that he appeared three years later, and slaughtered the patriarch of the demons to save the damsel in distress, showed his prowess in the Wind Forest, and smashed a giant dragon with a pig on Dragon Island…” Angela got increasingly agitated as she went on. Lastly, she said with a face full of admiration, “A man like that is simply an idol.”
“Really?” Mag raised his brow as he looked at Angela oddly.
“You’re a chef, you know nothing about dragon-slaying.” Angela looked at Mag as though he was a country bumpkin.
“I suppose so.” Mag nodded. After that, he said, “So have you fallen for him?”
“I think every woman in the world would be smitten with him. He’s such a strong and perfect man. It’s a pity I don’t fancy men.” Angela thought for a while, and said, “Of course, if it’s him… maybe… I can give it a try.”
“You’re losing your principles.” Mag leaned further back to keep a safe distance.
“That’s not important.” Angela pressed down on the table, and leaned forward with her eyes locked on Mag as she said, “The woman of such a powerful man is actually staying in your house, and even on the same floor. I heard that she’s even sleeping on the bed you used to sleep on. Don’t you think it’s absurd?”
“If you put it that way, I have indirectly slept with Alex’s woman?” Mag placed his hand over his heart with a face full of fear, and said, “I’m so scared.”
“That’s the way.” Angela nodded with satisfaction. She leaned closer, and whispered to Mag, “There’s a solution to that right now. Do you want to hear it?”
“What’s the solution?” Mag lowered his voice cooperatively.
“Why don’t you let her stay in my dormitory? I can totally settle for sleeping on the floor. I can’t help it, since I’m so smitten with her looks.”
“You can’t even hold back your smile anymore.” Mag pressed his lips together, looking at Angela, and trying not to laugh.
Help you hook up with my wife?
What a daredevil.
“No, I’m just a little agitated from thinking about it.” Angela quickly covered her mouth.
“You can raise this suggestion to her yourself. I have no opinion.” Mag poured himself another cup of tea, and waved his hand. Ugly Duckling, which was lying on the counter, slid down along the side, and came over unwillingly. It leaped up onto Mag’s lap, and placed its head on his hand to let him stroke as much as he wanted.
