Chapter 171 - Ch. 171 Lydia Is The Mysterious Girl!

That girl definitely wasn't Lydia.

That was what he believed, but… he wanted to confirm it again.

"Lydia, can I ask you something?"

"..." Lydia gave no reaction to his call and didn't budge from her position.

Realizing that the girl was ignoring him, Nick called her constantly.

"Lydia. Lydia, Lydia." relentlessly, Nick called her while poking her shoulder with his finger. "Lydia, Lydia, Lydia."

"..." the tip of her brow twitched in irritation at this young man's call.

She felt like a puppy bothering her to invite her to play even though she was not in the mood. And Nick is precisely like that puppy.

"Lydia, Lydia, Lydia."

"…" this boy… Can't he see that she wants peace? How could she feel at ease when the young man kept pestering her?

"Lydia, Lydia, when will you answer my call?" Nick changed his tactics and was now calling the girl's name as if he were singing a song.

Instantly, Lydia's closed eyes opened simultaneously, and she felt very embarrassed when she realized that people were looking at Nick curiously.

It felt like she wanted to dig a hole to hide her face.

"Ah, you're finally awake. Do you know I miss… mmph!"

Lydia immediately put her palm to Nick's mouth to prevent the boy from continuing his singing. How dare this boy!

Did he have no shame?

Lydia's face felt hot as she felt Nick's lips widen under her palms. She wanted to withdraw her hand quickly, but she was worried that this flirtatious boy would continue his ridiculous song.

Well, his voice was pleasant to hear, but the lyrics that mentioned her name... she was so embarrassed.

Plus, Nick's singing already attracted the people who were also waiting for the bus at this place. It made her want the earth to swallow her.

In the end, Lydia stood up and walked away from the bus stop area. She hoped Nick wouldn't follow her, which turned out the boy crushed her hope by catching up with her.

Convinced that Nick was following her, Lydia turned and confronted the young man once more.

"Why are you still following me? And don't tell me you didn't follow me."

"Why are you avoiding me?" instead of answering the question, Nick asked back.

"I'm not avoiding you."

"Then it doesn't matter if I follow you or not."

"…"

"I'm hungry. Buy me a meal."

"..."

Nick walked over and grabbed Lydia's still motionless hand before she could refuse. "I know a good place to eat."

Lydia sighed in defeat and let Nick take her to one of the restaurants in the area.

Nick chose a corner seat by the window and motioned for Lydia to sit down first before he sat down next to her.

Lydia glanced at Nick in confusion and curiosity. Aren't people usually sitting opposite each other? Why is this kid even sitting next to her?

Lydia wanted to shift her ass away, but to her right was a glass window where she could see an enormous Christmas tree.

For a moment, Lydia was stunned by the Christmas tree. She just remembered that soon they would all be celebrating Christmas. The decoration on the tree was dominated by blue and silver. If it snowed and decorated the Christmas tree, it would be a perfect photo object.

She felt very sure Kaylee would call her to doll him and Wendy so that they both looked beautiful in the photo in front of the tree.

Of her customers who call her to use her services, she likes to make Kaylee and Wendy her skill object the most.

The two of them hardly ever choosy and treated her like their close friend. Well, even though she'd get irritated every now and then because of Nick's annoying flirtatious behavior, she was happiest when she was with them.

Nick is mischievous, but doesn't that mean Nick accepts her as a friend too?

"Isn't that beautiful?"

Lydia turned to Nick, who asked her. "En. It was exquisite. Did you choose this place on purpose so we can see the Christmas tree?"

"N-uh. I'm not too fond of the look of it, especially the blue and silver. I prefer to see Christmas tree decorations with guitar, drum, or mic models!"

Lydia chuckled, amused at that. "What kind of Christmas tree is that? I'm pretty sure there is no kind of that Christmas tree."

There was a glint of surprise in Nick's eyes when he saw Lydia laugh, but the shock disappeared as quickly as it had come.

Finally… he managed to make the girl laugh!

"Of course, there will be one once I became a national day ambassador."

Lydia laughed heartily when she heard that. "Really. There are no national day ambassadors? Instead, you became an ambassador for Weird Days."

"Hey. That hurts my feeling," whined Nick clutching his chest while looking at Lydia with puppy eyes.

"Don't give me that look. You are weird, kiddo."

"I'm not a kid!" protested Nick can now understand the feelings of Tye, who was always considered a child by his mother.

Lydia wasn't his mother, but he still didn't want to be seen as a child. Especially by a girl like Lydia!

"Yeah, yeah, whatever you like. You said the food here is delicious. Which one is the best seller?" ignoring the boy's puppy eyes and pouty expression, Lydia pulled the food menu and looked at the list of dishes in this place.

"This one," Nick pointed to one of the food menu pictures, then to another, "This one is nice too."

Lydia nodded her head and followed Nick's recommendation. "Alright, I'll order this one. Pfft!" Lydia inadvertently looked back at Nick, who was still frowning, making it hard for her to hold back a laugh. "Why are you making such an expression?"

"Isn't this your fault?"

"My fault? What have I done?"

Nick brought his face closer to hers, causing Lydia to move backward until her back hit the glass window.

"What are you doing?" somehow, her voice suddenly became very soft, and her face felt hot because of how close Nick's face was to her.

Unbeknownst to her, her changing voice seemed to sound like a mysterious girl who came to Nick and kissed him in public, making Nick feel very sure… the mysterious girl was indeed Lydia!
