"Huh! She looks like a beautiful butterfly. Why should I be angry?" Despite of what she just said, thinking of how those women lost control at the sight of Edward, Daisy still fell into a rage. She wondered why women these days had become so fearless and shameless. She was sitting beside Edward, but they went up to him and hit on him anyway. It seemed that she was completely invisible to them, Daisy thought.
Huh! You said you're not angry. Look at your pout. Let's go. Didn't you say that you wanted to sample all the delicious food on this street?" Edward gently pinched her beautiful nose with affection. It was the first time that they had hung out, and he didn't want this small accident to spoil her good mood.
"I don't feel like eating. Let's go home. It's really very late." Daisy said while lifting her hand and looking at her watch. A sudden feeling of disappointment came to her. It seemed that they couldn't finish her plan for today. She wondered when they would have the chance to come here again. They came here on the spur of the moment, and they had already spent too much time here. She still had a report to write, she wasn't in the mood to continue wandering about tonight. It was not because she really minded what had happened just now. It was true that she was unhappy about it. But she was not going to take off the gloves and argue with him. She was not a narrow-minded person. She just needed to grumble about it a little, she knew there was no need to be petty.
"Really? You promise you won't regret it?" asked Edward. When he heard Daisy's words, he sighed with relief in his heart. But when he saw her downcast look, he felt the urge to persuade her to continue hanging out with him. He didn't want to see her disappointed.
No. Let's go. I can cook something for you at home, " Daisy said while holding his wrist and walking towards the car. She found that although Edward said the wontons were delicious, he didn't eat many. Probably he still couldn't forget his privileged identity as a nobleman, Daisy thought.
Edward's frown didn't fade when he heard Daisy's words. On the contrary, he furrowed his brow more deeply. But he didn't say anything, only let himself be guided by the hand. There was a glimmer of doubt on his face. She was very different today. And he had this feeling when he saw Daisy walk out from the military base. That was why he did what she wanted today. He had little idea that he would cause a sensation in the restaurant and make her unhappy. He blamed himself for being too handsome. And he should not have swaggered down the street while knowing his handsome face would attract so much attention. If all this hadn't happened, there would be no reason for Daisy to be upset. When they arrived home, it was very late. Edward didn't want Daisy to cook the food by herself. He urged her to take a shower and relax.
"Honey, you have something on your mind." Edward held her waist from behind and placed his head on her shoulder, and asked gently.
"Have you eaten enough?" Daisy put down the file and turned around, wrapping herself in his arms. She detected the fragrance of jasmine, the scent gave her a sense of belonging and let her feel at ease in the silence. It was the scent of Edward after a shower, the scent of love as they lay in bed together. She suddenly realized that it was such a wonderful thing to have a man to lean on when she felt tired. She had never experienced such happiness before.
"Yes! Are you tired? Then maybe stop working for awhile. You should go to bed early and get some sleep, " Edward said in a gentle voice, fearing that if he spoke too loudly, it would frighten Daisy who was rubbing her sore shoulders. He thought that last night he shouldn't have made love endlessly with her, then she wouldn't have been so exhausted today. But he didn't expect that Daisy had such a busy schedule, that taking a day off was really a luxury for her. 'I should let Rain know what a real capitalist is like. He really doesn't know how lucky he is to have such a good job with so many benefits. And he dared to complain that he is overloaded with the work every day, and said to my face that I am a fascist. I should ask him to enlist in the army to experience the fast-paced working style and see if he complains after that, ' Edward thought.
"It is almost done, only a small section left. These are the materials needed for the summary tomorrow. I'll finish it soon. You can go to bed first if you're sleepy, " said Daisy, raising her head from his arms and looking at him, feeling perplexed. To tell the truth, although she asked him to sleep, in her heart, she hoped that he could sit beside her till she finished up her work. She didn't care whether she looked like a spoiled child or she was selfish to have such a thought, she felt at ease as long as Edward was with her.
"How about I work beside you and wait for you to finish your work?" Edward said. He never tried to look at what she was working on, because he knew her files were confidential. Even if Daisy didn't care about this, he would choose not to pry.
Okay, I will finished it as soon as possible, Daisy couldn't wait to reply. Her eyes shine with a cunning smile, as if she had been waiting for him to say this. Oh my God! What should I do? I am overwhelmed by this ardent love when he lavishes such affection on me. I find that I am more and more unlike myself now. I've become more emotional and gentle. This is certainly not good for a soldiers, Daisy thought.
Edward stood still for a minute, basking in the warm feeling of a happy Daisy. Then he showed an understanding smile and walked to his desk to deal with some urgent files. He felt delighted that Daisy enjoyed this reliance on him. It was his pride and responsibility to back her up.
Working together in the late night was sweet and harmonious scence. The couple sat opposite each other. They would occasionally raised their heads and shot a warm smile at each other. Then they would attend to their files again. They did their own work without disturbing each other, but they could feel that their hearts were beating at the same rate, making them even more fond of each other.
When they remembered this many years later, they still felt they were the happiest couple in the world.
