Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 30

"Hey, I'm worried about you too, alright? Ungrateful b*stard!" Jiang Lei glared at Jiang Yao in dismay. He gave her a second thought and asked again with concern, "Be honest with me, are you really doing fine in the Lu family? Does Lu Xingzhi ever bully you? How about the Lu family? Do they ever bully you? Why are you getting thinner every time I see you?"

"I'm doing fine! Really! Lu Xingzhi treats me like a princess, my in-laws are wonderful. It's just emotional pressure from the heavy schoolwork, that's all." Jiang Yao exclaimed. She wondered if a swear would work better.

However, Jiang Lei's overwhelming concern and nagging made Jiang Yao felt sad and apologetic.

The Lu family was lenient with her. The Jiang family adored her to bits.

She was so selfish in her previous life that she was oblivious to the kindness of both families.

Jiang Lei heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Jiang Yao's reassurance. He added, "Anyway if you are unhappy staying with the Lu family, don't hold back. Just come home and let me know. Know I'm always here for you, okay?"

Jiang Yao nodded halfheartedly before she spoke again, "Will our eldest brother come home later? Xingzhi and I are staying for dinner tonight."

"I called him when I passed by the store on my way back. He said that he'll be home an hour early for dinner. The statement earlier really is from him, didn't you guess it all?" Jiang Lei said.

"Alright, got it. I'll go back in then." Jiang Yao nodded, turning to go back and leaving Jiang Lei in the yard.

Just as she turned around, the view caught her by surprise. She saw a figure leaning against the wall not far from her. The figure was Lu Xingzhi. She wasn't sure when he had come out of the room. It seemed that he was standing there admiring the scenery as a front for eavesdropping on her conversation with Jiang Lei.
