Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 280

In her previous life, her interactions with others were very simple. After graduating from college, she went on to work in the hospital, which meant she only had to get along with her colleagues. Their interactions were limited to nods in greetings, and no one knew her identity or family background.

After that, she left for the small mountain village, most of the people there were simple and had a great amount of respect for her and Wen Xuehui, and had even been very careful when dealing with them.

Feeling uncomfortable with Mrs. Ge suddenly barging in like this, Jiang Yao was at a loss for what to do for a while.

"Mrs. Ge, it's not that I don't want to accept your goodwill, but you may not know the situation in my house at the moment. There isn't any cooking ware in the house, and there isn't any place to cook. There's a welcome feast in the cafeteria later in the evening so I don't need to prepare anything. I'll be leaving with my husband to Jindo City tomorrow to attend his friend's wedding, and probably won't be home for a couple of days. Giving this to us would be a waste." Jiang Yao was not deliberately rejecting it, but there was no better chance for her to voice out.

"Oh? A welcome feast? There's going to be a welcome feast in the cafeteria for you?" Mrs. Ge focused on this point, and then muttered under her breath, "When I first came with Wenwen, the cafeteria didn't prepare any kind of welcome feast for us at all."

Hearing that, Jiang Yao felt slightly awkward. It seemed that she had said too much, and probably the wrong thing too.

She could see that Mrs. Ge was a petty person because the explanation that had come out from her mouth indicated that she held some resentment toward some people.

Once she understood that, she was slightly regretful of what she had said. But it was too late, and Jiang Yao could only pretend that she did not hear Mrs. Ge's mutterings as she stood in awkward silence.

Mrs. Ge looked at Jiang Yao, feeling that the difference in treatment between them was unfair, and also secretly thinking that Sergeant Lu's wife was someone who did not know how to be a decent person. Should she not extend the invitation to the mother and daughter to eat in the cafeteria?
