Chapter 969

But that period of time was so short-lived.

I hugged him and said, “Okay, let’s go watch a movie.”

The temperature on the autumn night was very pleasant. I wore a light-colored camisole maxi dress, paired with a knitted cardigan. Reynaldo wore dark trousers and a shirt, exuding a refined and noble temperament, with a mature man’s charm all over his body.

He booked the tickets in advance for a romantic love movie, which attracted quite a few viewers. The movie wasn’t long; it ended in just an hour and a half. Reynaldo looked very attentively. I was feeling a bit drowsy, and in the last half hour, I just fell asleep leaning on his shoulder.

When I woke up, there was no one in the auditorium. The administrators had all started to drive people away. Reynaldo smiled at me helplessly and said, “It seems like you don’t enjoy watching movies.”

“No, it’s not because of you last night…”

The conversation was not finished yet; Reynaldo’s eyes suddenly darkened, making me feel embarrassed to continue. Reynaldo smiled and led me out of the movie theater.

He asked me, “Where else do you want to go for fun?”

I thought for a moment and said, “I want to take a walk by the river.”

This season, it was most comfortable to go to the riverside and enjoy the breeze. As soon as he arrived at the riverside, Reynaldo was grabbed by a little girl. Looking back, it turned out to be a little girl selling flowers. The little girl smiled sweetly and said, “Sir, buy a bouquet of flowers for your girlfriend; they are very fresh.”

Reynaldo looked at me. I tilted my head and smiled, “Girlfriend, huh.”

Reynaldo humorously squeezed my hand and then bought the little girl’s flowers. But I only took one; it’s not convenient to take too many. The little girl was very happy, repeatedly saying “thank you” to me and Reynaldo.

It was a rose, very fresh. I sniffed at the tip of my nose and smiled at the man in front of me, saying, “Thank you, boyfriend.”

Reynaldo, however, pulled me into his arms and authoritatively corrected me, saying, “You should call me husband.”

“Hmm… But I have never experienced what it feels like to be a girlfriend; I really want to experience it.”

Before being with Reynaldo, I had never been in a relationship. I had no idea what it felt like to be in love. Ah, I really wanted to experience it.

Reynaldo jokingly hugged me and said, “Okay, I’ll let you be my girlfriend for a while.”

People always say that falling in love is romantic. It may really be so. It was just an ordinary autumn night, a simple rose, a layer of boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Even just walking hand in hand with him by the river, I felt incredibly romantic. The cool breeze blowing from the Taiwan Strait was filled with a hint of sweetness.

I really hope that I could always be like this with him.

Reynaldo may have been really holding back too much lately. As soon as we got home, he couldn’t wait to hug and kiss me. The consequence of tossing and turning all night was that the next day I slept all day in a daze.

When I woke up in the evening, Reynaldo was coming out of the bathroom after taking a shower. He wrapped a towel around his waist, with ambiguous scratch marks visible on his chest and abdomen. I blushed as soon as I saw it, and unconsciously glanced away.

He chuckled softly, leaned in, and cupped the back of my neck before leaning in to kiss my lips.
