Virtuous

"This cheesecake is actually very good," Adrian commented after eating a small piece of the cake. "Can you give me the details of the person who taught you how to make one?"

"Fo course," Demi smiled demurely as everyone started praising her cake. She eyed Zhou Jingren, waiting for him to compliment her. However, he never even laid his eyes on her. The man was leaning towards Lily, whispering at her ears while Lily pouted and blushed. Demi was not able to stop herself from wondering what kind of words was he saying to her ears. 

Demi lowered her head as tears started to pool in her eyes. She felt offended. She is embarrassed and insulted. Were they making jokes about her cake? Were they whispering insults towards her belief? She gritted her teeth as she remembered her father's words about this marriage.
