When Scarlett left the house, she didn't take anything. She just grabbed her phone and ran straight downstairs.
Raymond said he was hungry, so she had to follow him to get in the car for a late-night meal.
Scarlett went out to dinner with the Tanks today. She was wearing a long dress, but she had taken off her high heels and worn a pair of slippers. She did not bring her purse, only a cell phone in her hand.
It was okay to go out for a late-night meal in such a dress.
There was a street crowded with many food stores, fried chicken and barbecue and everything.
Scarlett heard from Viviana that when Scarlett's grandmother was in good health, the old lady would occasionally come to eat at the street with Viviana. And sometimes they would take Larry with them. But Larry was always concerned with the food hygiene and he felt that the food stalls were not clean. He just went to accompany his mother and grandmother.
The old lady later disliked Larry for not eating anything, and they didn't take him there after that.
When Scarlett heard about it, she thought her grandmother was an interesting woman. If she had met her grandmother earlier, she might have been able to go have a night meal with them.
But there was no if. The Tanks family found her too late.
Their car stopped. Scarlett collected her thoughts. She followed Raymond out of the car.
They arrived at the food street. The long street was lined with barbecue and other food stalls. It was still early, and there were still many people on the street. There were couples bringing their children and some student couples from the nearby university.
Scarlett grew up in such kind of neighborhood. She was not born into a wealthy family. She had no problem with these places but rather felt familiar to them.
But Raymond-
Scarlett subconsciously turned to Raymond, "Are you sure about this?"
Raymond glanced back at her, "Yeah." Scarlett raised her eyebrows. She told him what had happened with Larry when he came here before, and she asked, "Don't you have a fetish about cleanliness too?"
Raymond took her hand and went straight into the next stall, "Well, I don't right now."
Since Raymond and Scarlett had been together, he seemed to be able to put up with anything.
Hearing his answer, Scarlett couldn’t help but laugh, "I hope you won't regret it."
The two looked extraordinary among customers. As soon as they entered the stall, the waiter came with the menu," What would you two like to have?"
