BXBX NOVEL Chapter 109: Chapter 109 – All is Well
"Tell me if I am wrong, but isn\'t it called a date when a man and woman do something together, just with the two of them?" He responded with a straight face, pretending to be oblivious. "Is it wrong if I call playing together a date?"
"You\'re not wrong." Flexy nodded repeatedly, "Going out with a girl and having fun together is a date."
"I see, so you think playing together was a date," StoneSword added, nodding in understanding. His expression was as cold as a stone, and his gaze pierced him deeply.
"Next question then. Why do you feel disappointed that we invited you to play?"
"Right! I wanted to ask about that." Flexy shouted. He leaned forward and slammed the table with his hand.
Bam!
"Buddy! Why were you disappointed that we asked you to play together? Do you really want to have a date with LilyPixel that much? Are you that type? Hoes before bros?"
"Mind your word, Flexy. My sister is not a hoe." StoneSword interrupted sharply.
"My bad." Flexy unexpectedly backed down and smiled wryly. That expression soon turned into a frown that resembled a thug. "Are you choosing a girl before a bro, huh?! Tell me, buddy. Tell us what you really think!"
Hearing Flexy\'s question, Max\'s expression fell. He had one thing flashing in his mind.
\'Woah, this guy is really annoying.\'
Did he consider this annoying guy his friend and actually depended on him a few times before? Knowing that fact made Max rethink his decision.
\'I can\'t say that I just went along with the viewers\' flow either... At least not this fast.\' He thought. \'Let\'s add a more dramatic moment.\'
"Kuh!" He bit his lower lip and lowered his face. After a while, he raised his head and spoke with a bitter expression.
"It\'s not like I chose a girl before my bro. But, you know? My viewers teased me for being maidenless! I even missed the heroine in the Knight\'s Journey. Is it wrong if I have a little bit of hope of being close to a girl?!"
He finished by throwing his face away from both of them. His face looked sad, sorrow was clear in his expression.
Naturally, it was all just an act. Even the viewers caught on to his act.
— Woah, Breeze\'s acting is top notch.
— If I don\'t watch this on Flexy\'s channel, I would think this is serious
— Even if I know this is scripted, this is really good
StoneSword\'s viewers had a similar reaction to Flexy\'s. But some of them expressed their surprise that their favorite streamer did something like this. He was known as someone who didn\'t go along with this kind of charade.
What they didn\'t know was… StoneSword was actually asking Max seriously all this time to judge his reaction.
\'So nothing is happening between them, and Breeze has no real affection toward my sister.\' He concluded with a nod.
This was the first time he was able to guess someone\'s feelings easily.
\'He\'s also unexpectedly similar to me in personality, although he still has that comedic element that makes him able to go along with Flexy.\'
Flexy added more and more strange questions to Max, forcing him to answer all of them. The previously serious atmosphere was ruined, and the room was filled with laughter that burst out between some strange questions.
If they weren\'t stopped, they would continue like that until midnight.
Sighing, StoneSword took that role to stop them.
"Let\'s end the interrogation here." He said, standing up. "It\'s almost 6 PM, and Breeze still needs to set up his stream first. If we\'re late, my sister will sulk and get angry."
Max and Flexy stopped what they were doing and looked at StoneSword. That was so sudden, the former thought.
Then, he looked at his friend and smirked.
"You heard the boss. Unhand me, peasant!"
"Tsk! You\'re safe this time." Flexy clicked his tongue and released Max obediently. He took off the rope and threw it to the ground.
After getting free, the first thing he did was to stretch his arms.
"Man, that was awful. How could you tie my hands like that?" He complained, "I expected a remuneration! That was basically a kidnapping attempt! That left a trauma in me."
"Heh! That was StoneSword\'s idea, so ask him. I only provided the space he could use to interrogate you."
"Don\'t lie. That was clearly your idea."
There was no way someone like StoneSword proposed this kind of… script to Flexy. Or at least doing it without Flexy\'s push.
However…
"My apologies. That was my curiosity getting over me. I was just a bit too protective toward my sister." StoneSword said sincerely and bowed at him, taking him by surprise.
He certainly didn\'t expect him to do that.
\'He\'s way too polite and sincere.\'
"I was just joking, StoneSword. I don\'t really mind what happened earlier. Well, except for the fact that Flexy tied my hand. I knew that was his idea."
"Hehe, you\'re not wrong about that." Flexy laughed stupidly and puffed his chest, "Anyway, that was fun and all. We found out that Breeze will be maidenless forever."
"I hate you, Flexy."
"I like you too, Breeze."
Max groaned at his ridicule while Flexy laughed happily. StoneSword also joined the laugh, even though he sounded a bit reserved. Meanwhile, Flexy\'s chat blew up.
— As expected, Breezy
— I-I must write this
— NAAAHH, the girls are down bad. Flexy is trying to make Breeze maidenless
— Please, girls. Don\'t make Breeze embarrassed
— Breeze\'s fans here! For girls only, you can DM me and access a secret forum!
— … I have nothing to say.
Oblivious to that, Max decided to ignore both of them and set his stream. He went to the corner and chuckled maniacally.
\'Laugh while you can, Flexy. You won\'t be able to soon.\'
Not only did he change the title of his stream, but he also added a description of the other\'s streaming link. Finding their Punch account was pretty easy, so he didn\'t need to ask them. Surprisingly, their stream layout was pretty clean, and they added his Punch link to their description, too.
\'Well, at least I don\'t look like someone who was desperate for a girl earlier. All is well, and I also guard my image too. They think it\'s all scripted while I was actually kidnapped without getting told anything.\'
The positive was he would probably get more viewers from their channels in the future. He just hoped that the ones who came to his channel would be sane individuals only.
\'Okay, everything is set. I had also created a new server for us to play.\'
Max stood up from the corner and looked at both veteran streamers. It seemed like they were talking to their viewers while he was busy.
"I am ready." He called out to them with a loud voice to get their attention, "I also prepared the server. I will message the server code and will be waiting inside."
