Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1184

At the thought of this, Toby suddenly reflected on some of the things he had learned from the dramas and novels in the past.

He looked at Sonia beside him, his eyes flickering slightly, and his expression seemed a little strange.

Then, he coughed lightly and muttered, "Little Leaf, were some of my previous actions very tacky, sleazy, and silly?"

Sometimes, in the drama, the female protagonist would be very touched and happy when the male protagonist said or did something romantic, and she would feel that he was very handsome and charismatic.

He was clueless at that time as he wondered if the male protagonist was really as romantic and handsome as the female protagonist had said, but he didn't have an answer. Hence, he figured that it must be true because of the dramas.

Because of this, he took note of what the male protagonist did and said, modified them slightly, and applied the same method to her.

Previously, it had never crossed his mind that his words or actions would be tacky and sleazy, but after hearing Sonia's comments about these dramas and novels, he began to doubt himself. Now he couldn't help but wonder if he was as tacky as she had described.

If that were the case, it would be so awkward and embarrassing that he wished he could hide like an ostrich now.

Sonia could tell what Toby was thinking by observing his flickering eyes and embarrassed face. She chuckled before saying, "Not really. You're handsome and charming, to begin with, and your actions were not as exaggerated as the protagonists in the dramas, so they were not very sleazy, but maybe a little corny and puzzling."

He was relieved after hearing her comment, and his discomfort faded.

Although he had made a fool of himself, it was not as bad as he had thought.

He would rather be corny and puzzling than sleazy.

He knew what sleazy meant. To him, sleazy was used to describe a middle-aged man who was fat and bald but still thought of himself as God's gift to humanity. It might be a little different from what she meant, but it was not far off.

"Explain corny and puzzling," he mumbled reluctantly.

Although these two were better than sleazy, their definitions were only slightly better than sleazy.

She winked at him and smiled. "Don't worry. Yours is the cute kind of corny and puzzling."

"Cute?" He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Yup. Sometimes, I was confused when you said those cheesy words or did those corny actions, but you made me wonder why you would say or do such a thing, that's all. I never felt that something was wrong with your—" Sonia pointed at her head.

Toby's expression darkened instantly. So, should I be happy that you aren't treating me like I'm a moron?

When she noticed his grumpy expression, she squeezed his hand lightly and reassured him, "Alright, don't overthink this. I said that you were cute, although you were a little cheesy and confusing, didn't I? But I have to admit that you swept me off my feet with those words and actions. Also, as a man who is so cool and indifferent, you are more relatable when you do those things, so I didn't say anything wrong when I used the word 'cute' to describe you."
