Chapter 290: Immortal Romance
The essence of a foodie remains unchanged even in old age, just with weaker teeth, constantly restraining one’s desire for delicious food.
"Old man, I want to eat."
Holly Sawyer handed the ice sugar gourd to Leo Grant, indicating for Leo to peel off the packaging for her.
"Okay."
Leo took the ice sugar gourd and peeled off the packaging.
"Old man, the first one is for you to eat."
Holly offered the ice sugar gourd to Leo’s lips.
"Okay."
Leo smiled and ate the first ice sugar gourd.
The couple strolled down the street, eating the ice sugar gourd, looking every bit the loving pair.
"Click, click," suddenly the sound rings out, quite piercing, Holly and Leo looked towards the sound and saw two young girls holding cameras.
"Sorry, Grandpa and Grandma, we just found you so sweet, we couldn’t help but want to capture the moment."
The girl with the camera had a ponytail, youthful and beautiful, nervously scratching her head.
Couples still so loving in old age are truly rare.
"Grandpa and Grandma, you really look close, we truly envy you."
The other girl with ear-length short hair said, appearing a bit more lively.
"No problem, can I take a look?"
Holly smiled and said.
Being envied by others made her feel very lucky.
"Sure, sure."
The ponytail girl showed the photos she had taken to Holly and Leo, each one looking particularly natural, full of feeling.
It was clear her technical skills were quite good.
"Looks great, can you send them to me?"
Holly took out her phone; they were still using phones and WeChat.
"Sure, sure."
The ponytail girl took out her phone, added Holly as a friend, and then sent the photos over.
"You’re as beautiful as always."
Leo gently rubbed Holly’s head, speaking softly, his eyes full of tenderness.
In his heart, Holly would always be young and beautiful.
"You’re as handsome as always."
Holly chuckled, complimenting Leo in return.
Their closeness made them seem like a celestial couple.
"Wow, we truly envy you."
"So sweet love really does exist."
The two girls gathered closely, whispering to each other.
"Hey, don’t you think Grandpa and Grandma look a bit familiar?"
The girl with the ponytail looked at Holly and Leo’s interaction again, and at the photos she had taken. She suddenly felt a bit puzzled.
A bit familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before.
"You’re right, now that you mention it, they do seem a bit familiar."
The short-haired girl looked carefully again, then nodded.
The two girls exchanged a smile.
"Grandma, are you here traveling?"
The ponytail girl quickly asked.
"Yes, my old man and I have been traveling for ten years now, only returning home during holidays to reunite with our children, otherwise we’re always out."
Holly said slowly, every day with Leo was filled with happiness, time always flew by.
"Wow, we really envy you, Grandpa and Grandma’s relationship is wonderful.""
The short-haired girl praised.
Such love is truly worth envying.
"It’s mainly because the old man treats me well."
Holly looked sideways at Leo, her eyes full of him.
"Do you live in Bexley, Grandpa and Grandma?"
The short-haired girl tilted her head, looking at Leo and Holly, slowly asking.
They grew up in Bexley, thinking if Leo and Holly seemed familiar, they might have seen them there.
"No, but we did live in Bexley for a while when we were younger."
"Speaking of which, our relationship started in Bexley."
"We live in Arkenfall now..."
Holly said slowly, talking about their story, eyes shining with hope.
Yes, from the beginning Leo was good to her, and he continued to be, their relationship, it seemed like Leo contributed more.
"Wait, I suddenly remembered something.""
The ponytail girl suddenly had a realization, quickly taking out her phone, hurriedly scrolling through her album.
Her actions were swift.
The short-haired girl was a bit puzzled, not understanding what the ponytail girl suddenly thought of.
"Grandpa and Grandma, is this you?"
The ponytail girl pulled up an old photo, clearly showing its age.
In the photo, a young couple sat face-to-face eating hotpot, filled with evident love.
When you like someone, your eyes can’t hide it, the photo instantly showed the deep love between the two.
"Yes, where did you get this photo?"
Holly looked at the photo, slowly nodding.
In the photo, it was indeed her and Leo, time tracing back to many years ago, just after winter began, Leo had taken her to eat lamb hotpot.
The hotpot restaurant had a great atmosphere, at that time two young girls asked to take their picture, she gladly agreed, and the girls took the photo as they interacted while eating.
Holly had a great memory, vividly recalling the event.
She didn’t remember the two girls, but rather the beautiful moment with Leo, their first candid photo taken by others.
"These were left by our Grandma, she said you were a heavenly couple she met, in such a sweet romance."
"These photos and the story compiled by Grandma Nash circulated for a long time in our Grandma’s high school."
The short-haired girl spoke, her gaze towards Holly and Leo filled with envy.
The grandmas of both the ponytail and short-haired girls were the same person, Claire Miller.
"Yes, yes, our grandma often tells us, to find someone who treats us well, not to think there’s no love in the world, because there is."
"She said back then she really envied you two, didn’t expect we’d coincidentally run into the Grandpa and Grandma she always talked about, we feel quite lucky."
The ponytail girl laughed happily.
"There’s nothing worth envying, we’re just living the life we used to envy."
"The world is wonderful, we’re all living in our own ways."
Holly slowly said, her voice particularly gentle.
She never thought their love was worth others’ envy, they were just living the life they should.
She and Leo were just ordinary people, living ordinary days.
"Grandpa and Grandma, can we take a picture with you?"
The short-haired girl asked with a smile.
