The Chen couple was taking a walk to pass the time. It was just a quarter past four in the afternoon. Chen Linyun reserved a table for two at the Four Seasons Hotel at six in the evening for dinner.
As soon as they exited Xue Jinxu's shop, they drove off to the nearby park. They decided to enjoy the afternoon breeze outdoors. They both preferred the outdoors.
Chen Linyun extended his right hand to the lady, inviting her to hold hands with him, at her own volition. The lady stared at him first, but conceded. She intertwined her fingers with his.
For the first minutes they walked in silence. It was peaceful. They traversed the stone path designed in the park for walking, while taking in the fresh afternoon air, and the beauty of nature surrounding them.
