Chapter 65 Invite
Max was currently walking with Lydia, going back to ss together. They were left on their own as La and his sister weren''t able to apany them for a little longer, going the other way as they were short on time.
This was by far the most satisfying meal that Max had at this school. He enjoyed everything greatly, almost treating this whole ce as his home, doing whatever he wants.
Max had someone prepare a freshly made steak and it was so good that it made the free meals he has been getting taste ndpared to it.
It wasn''t only him that was enjoying their time, Lydia, La and his sister also greatly enjoyed their meals.
Fresh meat, vegetables, fruits and even desserts were avable for them to pick any time. They only have to ask what they wanted and they will be served exactly what they asked.
As this was Max''s first time going in this ce, he tried most of the things that he saw, only stopping when he was full. His sister got the same steak as him and joined Max in eating all the food he got.
La got herself a sd while Lydia ate small portions of meat but mostly had different kinds of cakes. She ate so much of it that Max wondered whether she would get fat it she kept eating those.
Everyone got what they all wanted. Even though they had to pay an expensive price for it, no one cared one bit about it as they were all rich, including Max as he had a lot of money to spend.
And using up all his money just for buying food wasn''t possible in this case. Even if he did, he can just earn more in a day by using his skills.
With his close friends, good food and a rxing environment, Max felt that it would be great if this happened every single day.
All four of them were having fun, La sometimes talked about the hot girls on the swimming team, wanting to tease Max. Having too much fun that they lost track of time.
In the end, Max had to pay for everything after they epted when Max offered to treat them. Every one of them knows that money one of the things they were not going tock as they were all awakeneds.
Before they went on separate ways with La and his sister, his sister whispered to him, asking him to ask Lydia out.
Yu''er walked away with La, not exining the reason, probably because they didn''t have any more time.
As Max knew that his sister never asks him to do things, he thought that she might have a good reason for this so he followed her words.
Quietly walking beside each other, Max was having a hard time, as he didn''t know how to ask Lydia out.
He never had any past experience about these things that he wasn''t sure what to say. Making up his mind, Max forced some words out of his mouth.
"Lydia."
"Hmm?"
Lydia turned to him as she walked, her eyes staring at him as if asking what does he want to say.
At this moment, Lydia was alreadyfortable around Max. But her habit of speaking a few words as much as possible never change.
"Are you free one of these days?"
Max sounded like it wasn''t a big deal, showing no hesitation and not stuttering while asking Lydia in a clear voice.
"..."
Still looking straight forward, everyone that saw this would praise Max in their minds, as he was stillposed even when he just asked one of the top beauties of the school out.
Contrary to how he appears from the outside, inside, he was sweating buckets. A few seconds have passed, still not getting any responses, Max started to overthink things.
''She won''t decline, right? This is so embarrassing, I shouldn''t be doing this! No! I shouldn''t have done this. Why did I even do it? Now, I''m just going to be rejected.''
"I''m free the day after tomorrow."
This time, Lydia responded with a more energetic voice. She never expected that Max would ask her out. She thought that they would just hide their rtionship, not telling anyone about it.
It was fine for her whatever Max decides to do as she doesn''t really have any problem with it but when Max asked her out or implied to, La didn''t imagine she would suddenly be filled with happiness inside.
She had heard of other students stories about dates, what they do and where they go. Sometimes she also pictures herself going on one, thinking about what she would do.
Lydia also heard about what they ended up doing after that, scolding herself for even thinking about it.
Her thoughts stopped after deciding to give Max a present, depending on how much she would enjoy the experience.
Max almost jumped up in delight as all his negative thoughts were instantly swept out of his mind, not forgetting to thank his sisterter for asking him to do this.
At the same time, decided to do some research on what to do as he didn''t have any idea what people do at dates.
"It''s set them. The day after tomorrow!"
Lydia looked down as she didn''t want Max to see her blushing face that waspletely different from how she acts when they were doing it.
Lydia felt something sweet as she saw Max getting excited and his face brightening up, making her look forward to the day after tomorrow.
Even though Lydia only utters out a few words each time when speaking with Max, it was only because of her shy personality, her feelings for Max were very strong and real.
In the past, not so much, but when unexpected events kept happening around them and repeatedly hanging out together with Max, Lydia started to fall deeper and deeper until it was pretty much irreversible.
Arriving close to their rooms, they made some space between them as they were walking so close beside each other.
Despite the fact that they were fine with people knowing about them, they had an understanding about not wanting to start any unnecessary dramas.
Especially when there will be some people who would make things hard for them like Dex, which only in time, would look like aplete beta in other people''s eyes when they see Max and Lydia being together.
From what Xiao Ming had said, Max was expecting that something will happen in the future. Although Max was prepared for it anytime, preferable, it won''t be this soon.
The closer Max was to his room, the more deted he was bing as he was once again going to go through the most boring time in school, sitting in his ssroom doing nothing.
