Scarlett reached out to take the cotton candy. "Thank you." Raymond touched Scarlett's head. "You are welcome." He then turned his head and looked at the boy coldly. "My wife's taste in men cannot be so bad." The boy's face changed for a moment. Now he realized he had misunderstood Scarlett. After all, he was too young. The arrogance on his face vanished immediately. He looked embarrassed, but he did not want to lose face, so he still stubbornly said, "She does have a bad taste. | cannot believe she actually likes an old guy." Raymond, who was under the age of thirty-five, was lost for words.
He thought, "Why does this guy sound more annoying than Alexander?" Raymond's face darkened instantly. Scarlett reached out and tugged at his sleeve. When she saw him lower his head, she raised her hand and put a small piece of cotton candy she had just pulled to his lips.
"What..." Before he could finish his words, Raymond felt something sticky on his lips. He pressed his lips together and immediately tasted the sweet cotton candy.
Scarlett looked at him and smiled. "Is it sweet?" Raymond looked at the smile on Scarlett's face and forgot the boy who annoyed him just now. "Yeah." The girl who talked to Scarlett just now stared at Scarlett and Raymond and was stunned for a while. She thought they were like a romantic couple in a romance movie at the moment. When she came to her senses, she asked Scarlett, "Excuse me, Miss. Is this your boyfriend?" "No." Raymond replied before Scarlett opened her mouth.

The girl was puzzled, but soon, Raymond went on, "I am her husband." The girl was stunned for a moment and exclaimed, "It turns out that you two are married! Miss, you and your husband are so good-looking. God! | cannot imagine how pretty your future baby will be!" Scarlett was embarrassed. She hadn't imagined her future baby yet, but now, a stranger did it earlier than she.
Raymond responded blandly, "Thank you.” He then looked at Scarlett. "Do we take a rest or continue strolling?" "Let's sit here for a while longer." Raymond had been standing in line for a while, so Scarlett thought he should be a little tired.
Raymond nodded. He picked up the coffee in front of Scarlett and took a sip.
It did not taste good.
He frowned slightly. Scarlett saw his expression and laughed. "It's not good." Raymond, however, picked up the coffee again and took another sip. "Not bad." Seeing his lips touch the lipstick mark she left on the cup, Scarlett blushed. She knew he made a good comment on the coffee just because he did not want to embarrass her.
Since Raymond came back, the girl who talked to Scarlett enthusiastically just now had the sense to keep silent.
She sat there and played with her phone.
Scarlett and Raymond sat for a while and then got up to leave. After all, the cafe was very crowded, and they did not want to keep occupying two seats.

Just as they got up, the girl's boyfriend came back with cotton candy.
When Scarlett and Raymond walked to the door of the cafe, they heard the girl say to her boyfriend excitedly.
"Did you just see the lady's husband? Oh my God. He is so handsome. They are a perfect match! They're married. | know good-looking people usually get married young!" The girl's voice was not low. Despite the noise of the cafe, Scarlett and Raymond still heard what she said.
Scarlett glanced at Raymond and found he was also looking at her. Raymond took her hand and gently squeezed her palm. "I also think you and | are a perfect match." He thought, "That girl said | was young! Yes, she is right! | am definitely not an old guy!"
