His ears even tinged with a shade of crimson.

The proprietor also presented them with their signature dishes, accompanied by a few other seasonal delights.
“These gingerbread cookies symbolize warmth and joy. Congratulations to both of you, and may the coming year bless you with a beautiful addition to your family!” He then turned his attention to Laura.
“You appear quite young. Have you graduated from university yet?” Laura maintained her silence.
Meanwhile, Edwin, displaying his thoughtfulness, smiled and answered for her.
“We're newlyweds, planning to relish these moments for a few more years.” The owner's wife, her hands gently rubbing together, chimed in, “Such a lovely young lady. Anyone would find it hard to let go!” Her husband playfully nudged her, adding, “I was hesitant about having a third child as well, since | want to spend more time with you.” In response, the owner's wife blushed and teasingly tugged at her husband's ear.

Stop talking nonsense; don't make us the Laughingstock.” The couple exchanged banter and retreated indoors.
Edwin then handed Laura a small fork and encouraged her, “Go ahead and eat! It'll help warm you up.” Laura accepted the fork and took a delicate bite of a cookie.
The taste was undeniably delightful.
Smiling lightly, she took another bite, her eagerness apparent as the warmth of the treat still lingered. She nibbled on it gently before glancing up to find Edwin gaping at her intently. Lowering her eyes, she whispered softly, “Don’t talk nonsense like this in public in the future.” Edwin emitted a thoughtful hum in agreement.
He added, “Next time we go out, | won't refer to you as my wife, only my girlfriend.” Laura's voice remained gentle.
“I'm not your girlfriend either! Edwin, let's just put this behind us after the meal and part ways. We're simply not suited for each other.” Edwin didn't say anything.
