Raymond saw Scarlett still standing there, so he put down the hanging rod, cup to her and carried her to the bed.
She felt embarrassed and put her arm around his neck resignedly.
He had stayed on the balcony for a while, so his body felt cold.
He also noticed that, so he let go as soon as he put her on the bed. He explained, "Today is cold. If you stand there, you may have a cold." She refuted, "You have closed the French windows. The wind won't blow in." He raised his hand to stroke her long hair, took off his jacket, put it on the rocking chair nearby, hugged her who was wrapped in a quilt and lowered his head to kiss her cheek. He said, "It's cold." Then he hugged her with the quilt in his arms.

He kept silent, glanced at her, picked up her clothes from the night table, found her sweater out and said, "It's still cold." It was getting dark outside. They only turned on the night lights, so it was not that bright in the room.
She had put on her sweater and watched him helping her put on an overcoat intently. She raised her arms to hug him involuntarily, rubbed herself against his chest and said, "The baby misses his dad." He asked, "What about the baby’s mom?" She said, "She also misses her husband very much." She had becclingy since she was pregnant. It was rare for her. Being hugged by her, he felt warm.
He put her overcoat aside, hugged her and asked, "What would you like for dinner?" She thought about it, looked up at him and said, "I would like to eat something hot." He asked, "Fondue?" She wanted to eat fondue, but she said obliquely.
She didn't deny it but smiled, "I haven't eaten it for a long time." He hadn't forbidden her to eat something, but she cared about it. She liked the light food all the time. After she was pregnant, she ate healthier. She rarely ate ice cream, barbecue and so on.
Now that Scarlett wanted to eat fondue, Raymond called Frank to take the ingredients to them.
They could eat fondue at home. It would be the sas when they ate it in the restaurant. Besides, the ingredients would be fresher.
She had rarely eaten spicy food since she was pregnant. She was afraid that she would have a stomachache.
Over the several months, she always ate light food. Raymond prepared many ingredients for her this time.
Scarlett wasn't a spicy food lover. In the past, she ate spicy food with Alexis occasionally.
She had problems with digestion after she was pregnant, so she didn't eat spicy food anymore.

The exam result was fine. Scarlett was healthy all the time. She just had problems with digestion after she was pregnant.
The next day after they cback from the hospital, it snowed in Juanton City for the second time.
It was late January. Hometown Day was coming.
On Hometown Day's Eve, Scarlett made one dish, and Raymond made four dishes. They ate dinner at home.
The next day, before it was getting light, Scarlett had heard the sound of fireworks. Juanton City had been strict with fireworks these years. Children still felt happy with the holiday atmosphere, although they couldn't set off fireworks casually.
Scarlett stood in front of French windows and saw sparse fireworks. Someone set off fireworks privately and didn't have the guts to set off big fireworks.
Raymond took a shower and walked out. His hair was still wet.
