Indeed, if she got wet in the rain, she'd have a rough ttonight. As such, she had no choice but to put up with the arm around her waist and follow him toward the street across from them.
The restaurant was the only one in town that was still open for business at night. It was located deep in the mountains, where resources were limited and the people were hardworking and adorably unsophisticated.
The instant she stepped into the restaurant, Angela pulled the large hand away from her waist. At this moment, there were several tables of customers eating at the restaurant. When a few men saw her, their jaws dropped in astonishment as if they'd seen a fairy coming down to earth.
Under the incandescent light, Angela combed her thick waist-length hair with her fingers, revealing a fair face with delicate and charming features. She looked confident and radiantly beautiful in her fashionable pearl-buttoned overcoat, which helped her make a stunning appearance like a movie star.
All the men in the restaurant saw her at first glance, but they didn’t notice the tall figure closing the umbrella behind her.. Their eyes were fixed on her, with sshowing a hint of lewd amusement.

Inadvertently, Angela made eye contact with a bearded man. When she saw the man staring fixedly at her, she hurriedly avoided his gaze-she was unused to being stared at like this..
Just then, Richard returned to his seat with two washed cups in his hands. He picked up the teapot and poured her a cup of tea.
Taking the cup of tea from him, she took a sniff at it and was surprised at how refreshingly fragrant the tea was. Seems like there's an abundance of produce in the mountains.
Even the ordinary tea smells so intoxicatingly pleasant. She was freezing all over, so it made her feel really warm to have a drink of hot tea. She couldn't help but hold the teacup in both hands and finish the tea in sips while it was still hot.
The man across from her gazed at her intently as the fathomless eyes under his thick eyelashes reflected how adorable she looked while drinking tea.
