Jenny still had the same suspicious expression on her face.
Luke said helplessly, "You were drunk last night. I can't be that tasteless, can I?"
Jenny chuckled. "Bullsh * t! Do you know how many men have tried to get me drunk and do whatever they want to me over the years? My high school classmates, some people in college, and even a distant relative. They've all tried. You're the first man to get me drunk. So, you're still saying that you're not gay? "
Luke was lost for words. "… I think I can prove it."
Jenny, however, raised her hand and stroked his cheek, before she slowly slid it down to his chest. "It's fine. I don't discriminate against people who share the same surname. I have a pair of good friends who are easier to get along with than those b * tches. Tsk, tsk. Look at your muscles. They'll probably go crazy if they see them. Hm, I've decided that we'll be good sisters from now on. "
Luke was lost for words. "… Can you go a little lower?"
Jenny subconsciously did as he said, only to withdraw her hand abruptly in shock. "Ah, that's impossible. You're so beautiful, your skin is as smooth as a woman's, and even your temper is so gentle. You're actually not gay … "
Luke could only chuckle. "Miss Gwenis, you seem to have forgotten who rescued you from the four gangsters yesterday morning. Can your gay friends do that? "
Jenny stammered, mainly because she was dazed by the hard evidence just now. All her speculations seemed to have collapsed. She was at a loss. "Ah, no, no, they can't do it."
Luke smiled and leaned forward. "Now, can you let me prove it to you in person? I promise that it'll be quick! Miss Gwenis. "
Jenny said, "Huh? What? Oh, well … "
After a long while, Jenny murmured intermittently, "Ah, didn't … didn't you say that it would be quick? Liar … Well … "
Luke chuckled. "I said that the proof would be quick, but I didn't say that the process would be as quick. That's the truth. It'll be a long process. You can be patient. "
Jenny: "Well …"
After a whole morning of patient proof, Luke finally managed to convince a certain lady that she hadn't slept with a gay for a night.
The two of them didn't go out and just ordered lunch in the room. After eating, they continued to be together.
In the meantime, Selina called and reminded him, "Although I know what you were going to do last night, and it's very likely that you did something this morning, can you text me in the morning and tell me that you're not coming back for lunch? Do you know what I had for lunch today? "
Luke thought for a moment before he replied, "Pig swill?"
"That's right! The hot dog stand outside the police station only served pig feed, but I could only eat that! So, you won't be coming back tonight, right? Darling ~ ~ ~ "
If you put it that way, then what about the officers in the Westside Police Department who eat lunch at the hot dog stand for a long time? Complaining inwardly, Luke replied, "I'll definitely be back tonight."
Selina said, "Mom, I love you, darling. Remember to plan tonight's menu first."
Luke was lost for words. "… You make me feel like a chef."
Selina said, "Alright, I'm still helping you deal with those boring reports at the police department. Do you know how many of them we have to submit? I'm already doing my job as your secretary. Can't you focus on your promising career as a chef? "
Luke and Selina had to submit at least ten reports for their operation yesterday, which were tens of thousands of words. It was even more troublesome to write the reports.
Luke quickly admitted defeat. "Thank you very much for your support. I'll make you delicious food tonight."
"It's a deal! Bye, Elsa's calling me again. I might need to talk to you later. Remember to tell me that you have a cold. You're sleeping at home after taking your medicine, "Selina said before she hung up.
Luke shook his head and chuckled. Despite her harsh words, Selina had even applied for leave for him and helped him with his work. Was she trying to be a super considerate secretary?
At four in the afternoon, Luke finally left the hotel with Jenny, who was weak all over but glowing.
He drove her back to her home in Beverly Hills. After they got out of the car, Jenny suddenly asked, "Can you … be my boyfriend?"
Stumped for a moment, Luke shook his head. "I'm sorry. I like my current job, so I have no intention of getting a girlfriend."
If he had said that in China in his previous life, he would've been a typical scumbag who wouldn't admit to anything after pulling up his pants.
But it was quite common for young people in major cities in the United States.
Just because they had an intimate relationship didn't mean that they had to be a couple. It was more common here to have simple sex. Everybody was busy and didn't have time for relationships.
Jenny bit her lip. "Why? Why are all men like this? "
Luke knew why she was talking to him like that. Jenny's father was a CEO, so she was very sensitive about such things.
Pondering for a moment, he said, "Jenny, I like being a police officer. I like helping the innocent and punishing criminals. I think that if it weren't for that, we probably wouldn't have met, and what happened yesterday wouldn't have happened. So, please understand my choice, okay? "
Jenny opened her mouth, but was lost for words.
While women could often be unreasonable, technically speaking, she hadn't really met Luke until yesterday, and wasn't in a position to be unreasonable at all.
Logically speaking, it was exactly because of Luke's philosophy that she hadn't fallen into WD36's clutches yesterday.
After a brief silence, Jenny finally calmed down a little, and her reluctance to part with Luke beat back her anger. "Then … are we still friends?"
Luke smiled. "Of course. I can't pretend that nothing happened today, can I? I just don't have much time to manage a relationship. Let's just keep being friends, okay? "
Jenny stared at him blankly for a moment, then suddenly went up to him and kissed him deeply.
After a long time, they separated, and she said in a low voice, "Then, we can still do this as friends, right?"
Luke chuckled and pinched her behind her back. "Not just that, there's a lot more we can do, as long as I have time."
Jenny hummed in acknowledgment. "When are you free?"
Luke thought for a moment and said, "Let's call each other in advance. You know that I don't know when I work and get off work."
Jenny was slightly disappointed.
A detective of the Major Crimes Division in Los Angeles was truly too busy. No wonder Luke had turned her down.
Looking at her face, Luke's heart skipped a beat. "I remember that you studied business administration at USC, right?"
Jenny nodded. "Yes, it was my dad who asked me to … Forget it, let's not talk about him."
