Spoiled by the Silver Fox

Seems like Steph is doing pretty well now, so she's relieved.

After hanging up the phone, Stephanie said, "You guys are so cheesy! But, I like it! Hahaha... My mom loves to hear people praise me more than she likes to hear people praise her." Maddie raised her head and said, "I'm just stating the facts!"

"Alright, alright, let's go eat! To celebrate our friendship! Long live our friendship!"

In no time, they arrived at the restaurant.

Most places near school were low to mid-range, suitable for students' budget, and were very average in environment, with many people.

Stephanie was worried that Maddie, being a classy lady, wouldn't be used to this kind of environment, so she asked her before they entered the restaurant, "Maddie, can you adapt to this environment?"

Seeing the restaurant was packed with people and the air was filled with the smell of meat, Maddie frowned subconsciously, but she didn't want to ruin Gillian and Stephanie's mood for dinner, so she forced herself to say, "It's fine... I can adapt."

Both Gillian and Stephanie felt she was a little reluctant, and they were about to suggest changing to another place when Stephanie's phone rang.

She said, "Hold on a moment, let me take this call."

Then she answered the phone, and Cyrus's voice came through, "Hey, Steph, missing me yet?"

"Nope." Stephanie replied bluntly, "Cyrus, what's up? I'm out to eat with my classmates, and they're waiting for me!"

"No biggie, just remembering I owe you dinner... Are your classmates with you? Wanna eat together?"
