Dear Sweetheart Chapter 166 Not A Beast

Rayna stared at her phone with a confused look on her face.

What is it? Why is he acting all mysterious?

Noticing Rayna’s absent-mindedness, Curtis asked, “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing, just some spam messages.” She put her phone back into her pocket and continued to push him forward. “There are many people by the lake. Let’s go there.”

After arriving at the artificial lake, Rayna saw more than ten middle-aged ladies dancing in the same traditional clothing. They were wearing waist drums while they beat and danced to them. The scene looked very festive.

Rayna wheeled Curtis as she looked for a place to sit. Then, she took out an orange and started peeling it.

“These ladies are so energetic. I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to dance at their age.” As she spoke, she put a piece of orange into Curtis’ mouth. “Have more oranges. It’s good for your health.”

Curtis gave her a glance.

The middle-aged ladies danced for a long time. Although drenched in sweat, the smiles on their faces remained unchanged. After that, they rehydrated themselves and took a rest.

One of them saw Rayna and Curtis and waved. “Young lady, come and have some fun!”

“It’s fine!” Rayna waved her hand dismissively and smiled, “You enjoy yourselves.”

“Don’t be shy; come join us!” The lady came and pulled Rayna with her as she said, “This is a simple dance. You can lose some calories, and it will lift your mood.”

Huh? I’m in a good mood. Why do I have to lift it?

A confused Rayna was then pulled into the center of the flower bed by the middle-aged lady and had a little waist drum tied around her. When the music started, she began clumsily dancing while watching the old ladies.

The dance was simple. She just had to move her feet and twist her hips. The main point was to hit the waist drum following the rhythm.

Rayna’s movements were rather uncoordinated for a while before she grasped the rhythm. After that, she found it fun and let loose. Meanwhile, Curtis watched her quietly in the shade.

Curtis had never seen this kind of dance before and couldn’t help laughing when he saw Rayna’s exaggerated movements.

This woman is adorable at times.

The music changed after they danced for a while. The middle-aged ladies sang along enthusiastically to a folk song, twisting their hips. It so happened that Rayna also knew the song, so she sang along.

Rayna coincidentally met Curtis’ gaze while dancing and saw him staring and smiling at her. Immediately, she turned around and blushed.

I’m doomed. My dancing must look utterly comical.

After barely finishing the second half of the dance, Rayna was covered in sweat. Then, she returned the waist drum to the middle-aged lady.

“Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it. As long as you’re happy.” The old lady gave her a nudge. “Your husband looked happy watching you dance. His gaze was on you the entire time. You two are still young, my dear. The most important thing is to live happily. Life will always get better.”

Rayna knew the lady was saying that to her because she had noticed Curtis in a wheelchair. Thus, she nodded and went back to Curtis.

Curtis handed her some tissues. “You danced quite well.”

“Ahem! Thanks.” Rayna cleared her throat. She knew that she must have looked funny just now. It took a few seconds for her to realize something, and she leveled a confused look at the man.

Something doesn’t feel right.

She asked, “Mr. Faymon?”

Looking at her, Curtis arched his brow. “Yes?”

“It’s nothing.” Rayna felt deeply embarrassed now that she knew Curtis had sobered up. It didn’t help that she had danced in front of him earlier.

Wanting to avoid Curtis, she saw an ice cream cart in the distance and ran off in a hurry.

As Curtis watched her retreating figure, he was bewildered. “Am I a beast?”

Why did she run off?
