After almost an hour, everybody gathered at the table again.
There was a limit to one's stamina. Apart from Luke, who was a monster of stamina, the rest of them were all excited and exhausted.
Even Luke felt that it was interesting to occasionally come to a place like this and dance like crazy.
This was different from a battle. After all, the only background music that came with it was a combination of Buddhist and Daoist music. They could only kill, not dance.
After a short break, it was almost four o 'clock. Luke said that they would close, and everybody got up and left.
Han dropped Kelly off this time, and Luke had the nightclub send him and Max back home. After all, it was just a small matter of adding a number to the bill.
The car soon returned to Williamsburg, and Luke saw the two girls off.
This was an old-fashioned apartment building that couldn't be more common in New York. It wasn't dangerous, but it wasn't shabby at all.
After seeing the two girls off at the door and saying goodnight, Max finally couldn't take it anymore. She turned around and glared at the girl who was still giggling behind her. "Didn't you say that your bladder was going to explode? Are you going to fight me for the bathroom later? I still need to take a shower. "
Only then did Carolyn realize that she had been the third wheel. She waved at Luke with a smile and went back into the house.
Max finally turned around with a smile. "Although you might not need it, I still have to say thank you. Tonight was great."
Luke nodded. "You're welcome. I thought it was a great night too."
Max blushed and asked, "Really?"
Seeing her like this, Luke was rather tempted. He probed, "Carolyn said that you like to make cupcakes?"
Max said, "Of course. I made all the cakes you ate tonight."
Luke chuckled. "Can I take a look?"
Max's face froze. "What?"
Luke coughed. "Actually, I have a lot of experience in cake making."
After a brief surprise, Max rolled her eyes. "Why don't you come in and take a look?"
Luke smiled brilliantly and said, "Sure. But don't be too surprised. I'm very good at it. "
Max made way for him. "Don't just say it."
Luke entered the house, and Max closed the door and locked it.
At the same time, Carolyn's grayish-blue eyes were fixed on them through the crack in the door.
…
At noon the next day, Caroline yawned contentedly and woke up.
Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, she was puzzled for a second. Suddenly, she threw the blanket aside and rushed out of Max's room.
When he reached the living room, he saw Max sleeping soundly on his bed. He jumped up, grabbed her shoulders, and shook her. "Wake up, wake up."
In the end, Max pushed her away. "Stop it. I'm so sleepy. Let me sleep a little longer."
However, Carolyn wasn't willing to give up. She continued to harass him. "Dream on! Last night, when you brought me in, you messed around in the living room for more than an hour. I only fell asleep before dawn. "
Max buried his head in the pillow. His voice was muffled and a little erratic. "I haven't slept since dawn. I'm much more tired than you."
Hearing those words, Carolyn stopped what she was doing. Frowning, she thought for a moment before saying, "That's not right. I feel like the sky wasn't even bright when I fell asleep. Why didn't I hear your movements? Hmm, it seems … I suddenly fell asleep. That's impossible. I was so sleepy and couldn't sleep … "
Speaking up to this point, she subconsciously looked at the cake-makers in the room. Her eyes widened, and she immediately got out of bed and ran over.
Looking at the mountain of cupcakes that had been made, she was shocked. "Are you kidding me? Why are there so many? Are they really making cakes? bullshxt! How much flour did they use? Wait, do you think I'm a child? Max never asks God to make a cake. "
Thinking of this, she patted her head in annoyance. "If I had known earlier, I would've opened the door to 'observe'. Why did I have to lie in bed and cover my ears with a pillow?!"
That being said, she couldn't suppress her curiosity anymore.
Running back to her red bed, she began to nudge Max. "Darling, tell me how you made the cake last night."
The exhausted Max was half-asleep. Subconsciously trusting Carolyn, coupled with his impatience towards her nagging, he casually replied, "It's like … like a ghost."
"The love between a human and a ghost?" Carolyn pondered for a moment before recalling a famous scene from a certain romance movie. Instantly, her eyes turned red as she asked, "You're saying that you'll cuddle together like in the movie, treating the flour like mud and the cake like a clay sculpture?"
Max murmured, "That's right."
Carolyn gnashed her teeth. "That's my dream! That used to be my dream!"
Some of the girls didn't want to do what they did in the movie, provided that the person playing with mud with them was a handsome guy.
However, she was actually very ambitious, and she soon became annoyed. "B * stard, I actually fell asleep during such a fun thing. If I had known, I would've taken a picture of it from behind the door and sent it to Facebook. "
What she didn't know was that Luke had sensed her growing desire to peek at him, which was why he had decisively given her an anesthetic and made her sleep until dawn.
Otherwise, this woman, who could barely keep her eyes open, would rely on the burning fire of gossip in her heart to force herself to stay awake and secretly take photos.
He wasn't a pervert, and didn't want to leave a video of himself on someone else's phone, even if the other party was a beautiful woman.
In fact, didn't this woman know why Max had chased Carolyn into his room, then occupied the living room outside, and even borrowed Carolyn's bed in the living room?
Her roommate was just making a cake, yet she wanted to secretly take pictures with her phone. What a peeping tom!
To get it over with once and for all, he could only use anesthetic.
Thankfully, this anesthetic was environmentally friendly and harmless to the human body. It even had a miraculous effect on some insomniacs, ensuring that they would feel refreshed and energetic after sleeping.
That was also why Carolyn was so lively now.
Max, on the other hand, didn't have the same treatment. He stayed up late with Luke to study the eighteen different ways to make fancy cakes, from kneading to recipes and heat control.
She was exhausted at that moment, but Carolyn still managed to get a lot of information out of her.
But Carolyn didn't end up well either.
Other than her eyes turning red with jealousy and her breathing becoming heavy, what else could she say?
Eight pack abs, two pectorals, solid trapezius muscles, and so on … She would rather not have heard of them.
Not only did she have to go to a fast food restaurant in the afternoon, but she also had to help Max ask for leave.
Who told Carolyn to ask for everything? Now that she knew everything, she didn't dare let Max go to work.
