GoodReadRaymond was anxious to come back because he had an ulterior motive.
Scarlett had never dated someone seriously. She liked Raymond by accident. She fell in love with him at first sight. Her passion for him made her blind to everything else.
Scarlett said that she wanted to marry Raymond actively. It seemed that she was enthusiastic and bold towards feelings, but she was reserved to express her feelings. That was the reason why she finally divorced Raymond after three years.
Now she remarried Raymond and didn't care about others' opinions, but she was still shy to express her feelings to him in private.
Probably it was because Pearl always taught Scarlett that she was a girl and should be reserved when she was a little girl. Scarlett pursued love boldly, but she was reserved to express her feelings.
Couple's Day was a traditional holiday for couples. Many shops started advertising last week.
Scarlett was a girl. Of course, she liked romance.

But Raymond was abroad. Even though she would like to celebrate it with Raymond, she was too shy to tell Raymond her thoughts.
However, Raymond came home last night, and today was Couple's Day. What a coincidence.
Thus, when Raymond said that he would like to go out with her to celebrate Couple's Day, she felt moved and happy in her heart although she kept calm on the surface.
Although this year's Couple's Day was a workday, there were still many people at Juanton City's Couple Street.
Most of the couples were young men.
According to their ages, it seemed that they were college students.
Couple Street's name originated from an affecting love story. A long time ago, a poor young man lived at the end of the street while a young girl who had a good family background lived at the start of the street. The distance between them was not just the distance of the street. At that time, people cared about family background more than now. The poor young man promised that he would come back to marry her after he became rich.
After the poor young man tried his best and earned money, he came back to marry the girl. However, the girl's parents made an engagement for the girl six months ago. Her fiance was a rich man who lived in another city, and the girl would marry the rich man the next day.
The girl's parents made the decision for her. She had no other choice. The poor young man came back too late.
He could only see the girl marry the rich man from the start of the street to the end of the street. Then he had never seen her anymore.
The story didn't have a happy ending, but Couple Street became famous because of the story. Shopkeepers took the story as a publicity stunt. The street was about 2 km from the start to the end. There were various shops on both sides.
Today was Couple's Day. Shopkeepers held different activities to attract clients to spend money.
It wasn't the first time that Scarlett came here. When she was at college, Alexis took her here to witness how Justin and Alexis celebrated Couple’s Day. Alexis said that Scarlett could learn in advance. When Scarlett came here with her boyfriend, she would be experienced.
At that time, Scarlett didn't take what Alexis had said seriously. She thought that Alexis just wanted to do PDA in front of her.

Unexpectedly, what Alexis had said came true after so many years.
However, many shops on Couple Street had been changed and decorated. An adventure shop for couples, which Alexis liked the most, became a romantic cinema.
There were still many snack bars and coffee shops.
At the end of August, it was still hot in Juanton City. Scarlett couldn't stand the heat. She wore a short flowered skirt and a pair of sandals with short heels. Compared to Raymond who wore suits, Scarlett was just like these young girls.
They were tall and beautiful. They were eye -catching among the crowd.
Along the way, passersby always glanced at them subconsciously. Scarlett had got used to that already and didn't care about it at all.
Not far away, a coffee shop was selling cotton candy. The patterns were cute. Scarlett remembered that her father always bought cotton candy for her every Friday when she was in primary school. The cotton candy didn't have so many patterns like now. At that time, cotton candy just had different colors. The colors were white, light blue, red and purple.
