“All right. Let’s not mention him.” Louis tried to change the topic as he placed a fried lotus root on Charlotte’s plate. “Charlotte, please try this.”
“Do you even know how to make this?”
Charlotte was a little surprised as not many knew about her favorite food.
“I asked Ellie what you liked to eat, and she told me this. That’s why I learned it.” Louis smiled at Charlotte.
“It’s hard to find good lotus root in Pillere and I’ve been purchasing it from another city. And finally, I’m able to make it successfully.”
Charlotte took one bite and nodded right away. “It’s delicious.”
“I’m glad you like it.” Louis was utterly pleased. “I also know that you love rice balls in wine, so I’m still learning it.”
“Thanks, Louis.” Charlotte was somehow touched.
“We’re getting married soon. It is the least I should do for you.” Louis looked at her with a gentle gaze. “I’m happy as long as you’re happy.”
Charlotte lowered her head, without saying anything.
“Charlotte, don’t move.”
Just then, Louis noticed a food stain on Charlotte’s face, and he took a tissue and wiped it off her face.
Charlotte was stunned momentarily, sitting still.
Underneath the dim light, her beautiful face made Louis’ heart move as he leaned toward her.
Charlotte evaded him, but still, his lips touched her cheek gently.
At that moment, the two of them froze on the spot.
The next instance, Charlotte moved away from him.
Louis’ face was blushing red from anxiousness.
Charlotte furrowed her brows as she shifted her gaze away.
“I… I’m sorry.”
