Gary suggested,"You have never met each other before getting married, let alone gone on a date. Why don't you go out on a date today?"
Charles cheerfully accepted the suggestion of his grandpa. Gary and Chris indeed helped him a lot after they came back. Charles was very pleased to have a date with Autumn, but she was feeling a bit awkward about the whole idea of a date.
Before they went out, Charles called David to seek advice on which restaurant was perfect for couples. David recommended him a French restaurant.
The moment they got in the car, Autumn couldn't resist saying,"Charles, I think we can just go on a short tour nearby and return back home."
Autumn felt that if people saw them on this date, they might think otherwise. Charles didn't utter a single word, but directly "pounced" on her.
Autumn was taken aback and went stiff. However, Charles only did that to buckle her seat belt. He then started the engine.
The car slowly picked the pace. The car windows were open and the night breeze kissed Autumn's hair. Charles could smell a pleasant perfume from her.
After about twenty minutes, Charles pulled over at the foot of a hill. He opened the car door for Autumn, and held her hand.
Autumn knew this restaurant.
The hill was at the outskirts of the city, and the restaurant was located at the top of the hill. The restaurant was extremely popular as the Y City rendezvous for lovers because of its unique design style and environment.
Many couples came here to have an afternoon tea or a light supper. The ambiance around would definitely make it an unforgettable experience for every couple.
Autumn had always wanted to come here, but she had no boyfriend. She didn't expect Charles to bring her here.
"You... Why do you bring me here?" Autumn stood still and asked Charles in embarrassment.
This restaurant was popular with dating couples. Was it appropriate... for them to come here?
"Don't you like it here?" Charles asked with a frown. He didn't get the point of what Autumn said. "David recommended this restaurant to me. If you don't like it here, we can find another restaurant."
"No, I didn't mean it that way." Autumn stopped Charles and muttered,"This restaurant... is for lovers. It's inappropriate for us to come here."
Charles went blank for a moment before he finally realised what Autumn was trying to say. He grabbed her hand with a straight face,"Don't forget we are husband and wife. The restaurant is appropriate for us."
"But..." 'We are not the 'real' husband and wife, ' Autumn thought.
Before Autumn could retort, Charles grabbed her hand and stood in line for the cable car.
There was no way to go to the restaurant other than taking this cable car. While sitting in a compact space, couples could enjoy the beautiful scenery and talk peacefully. This would definitely accentuate the romance between couples.
