Chapter 584

584
Under the neon lights, the traffic was bustling, pedestrians were moving slowly, and the air was filled with the smell of fireworks.
Reynaldo specially prepared a candlelit dinner.
The dishes were very delicate, the candles flickered, and the light reflected on the glass windows, which was quite dreamy.
However, sitting face to face with Reynaldo and listening to the melodious soft music, I inexplicably felt a little embarrassed.
What to do?
I still prefer the way we used to interact before.
He was so gentle and deliberately creating romance, I always felt uncomfortable.
Reynaldo served me some dishes and smiled at me, saying, “Eat, how about it? Not used to it?”
“Yeah, the first candlelight dinner in my life, always felt a bit strange.”
“So coincidental,” Reynaldo smiled at me, “this is also my first proper candlelit dinner.”
“You can just think of us as dating, but, in fact, we were already dating.”
I rested my chin on my hand and told him frankly, “I feel like I’m more used to the way we used to interact before.”
“What do you mean by the previous… way of getting along?” Reynaldo suddenly chuckled strangely.
At the sight of his strange smile, I felt something was wrong.
Sure enough…
He started to get serious in the next sentence.
“It seems like you don’t enjoy the foreplay of dating and prefer to go straight to bed when we first meet. Okay, I’ll keep that in mind for next time.”
“Reynaldo!”
Sure enough, this man was serious for no more than three seconds.
Reynaldo gazed at me with a deep look in his eyes.
The man’s eyes were always very deep, especially with this kind of lustful look, making people inexplicably anxious and hot.
I grabbed my collar and glared at him, “What are you doing? Don’t look at me like that.”
Reynaldo lowered his eyes and smiled, “Okay, anyway I will have plenty of chances to watch later, and I can see ‘more‘.”
He said “more” with extra meaning.
I poured the juice from the side into my mouth to ease the heat in my
heart.
Just then, there was a sudden “bang” in the sky outside, bursting into fireworks.
I was stunned.
The colorful fireworks “blossomed” brilliantly in the night sky.
Reynaldo smiled at me and said, “Do you like it?”

I didn’t understand the meaning of this sentence yet, I just nodded and said, “So beautiful.”
Just as the fireworks kept blooming, I slowly realized that something was
Wrong.
After the fireworks bloomed, how did a line of words form in the sky?
“Reynaldo loved Esmeralda forever.”
At the same time, a confession appeared on the giant screen of the opposite mall.
“Reynaldo always loved Esmeralda.”
“Reynaldo and Esmeralda were going to be together for the rest of their lives.”
“Reynaldo and Esmeralda were going to be husband and wife for a lifetime.”
********
Words of confession like this were scrolling on the giant screen, attracting everyone around to stop and stay.
The murmurs of discussion and envy outside rose and fell, faintly reaching into the restaurant.
Even the restaurant staff couldn’t help but envy.
“Oh my goodness, Mr. Humphrey was so romantic, Ms. Duffy was so lucky.”
“Yeah, didn’t they say Mr. Humphrey was getting divorced from Ms. Duffy before? It seems like all rumors, look at how much Mr. Humphrey loves his wife.”

“Oh, I envy Ms. Duffy so much. If only there was a man who treated me like that, I would give my life willingly.”
“Being women ourselves, how come we are so much worse off than Ms. Duffy, ahhh!!!”
I looked at Reynaldo in shock.
