When Boyce reached the door of the house, he opened the door. Jasmine was standing behind him. The phone in her pocket vibrated. She took out her phone and Elaine was calling her. She answered the phone.
“Jasmine, when are you coming back?” Jasmine took some daily necessities to the hostel and she had said that she would stay in the hostel for a few days. It was almost ten o’clock and Jasmine hadn’t returned. Therefore, Elaine called her.
Jasmine walked into the house. She raised her eyes and looked at Boyce. Boyce was also looking at her. She pressed her lips and said with a low voice, “I will not go back tonight.”
“Why?” Elaine didn’t know that Boyce had returned. Jasmine had said that Boyce was on a business trip and he wasn’t at home during this period of time.
Jasmine said with a low voice, “My husband is back.”
“Oh.” Elaine pursed her lips, “Then, I am not disturbing you.”
After saying that, she hung up her phone. She sat on her bed in the hostel and she was envious of Jasmine in her heart. Jasmine hadn’t graduated and she had found a good man to marry. Furthermore, the man had good social status and he knew a lot of rich people. He could simply gift Jasmine a present that was worth more than two thousand dollars.
She sighed. ‘There is something I couldn’t envy. I have to work hard myself.’
Jasmine hung up the phone and put the phone back into her pocket. Boyce asked her, “Who called you?”
Jasmine walked to the table and poured a glass of water and said, “My classmate.”
After saying that, she drank the water. She turned her head and saw Boyce standing in place while looking at her. She reached out her hands and touched her face, “Is there anything on my face? Why are you looking at me like this?”
Boyce didn’t say anything.
Jasmine saw that Boyce’s dirty clothes were in the basket. She walked towards it and put his clothes into the washing machine. Other people’s husbands would bring back some gifts to his wife after going on a business trip. He only brought back dirty clothes.
She sighed.
When she walked out, she saw that Boyce was still standing in place while looking at her. She blinked her eyes, “Don’t you want to take a shower? Or do you want me to take a shower first?”
Boyce remained silent for a few seconds. He asked, “The one who called you just now, is he a boy or a girl?”
Jasmine was speechless.
‘Is he actually entangled with this matter?’
Jasmine said the words intentionally, “Not all my classmates are girls. There are also boys.”
Boyce walked towards her, “Can you not get too close to your male classmates?”
Obviously, Boyce was jealous. Jasmine lowered her head to let him unable to see her expression and said, “There are not only girls in the class. I still have to get in touch with male classmates. Just like you, you cannot only have male colleagues. There are always a few female colleagues and subordinates, right?”
Indeed, he had female subordinates just as Jasmine had said. Sometimes, he had to get in touch with them at work, “We only have work relationship.”
Jasmine nodded, “I know. I only have classmate relationships with the male classmates.”
Boyce was speechless.
“If you don’t take a shower, I will go first. I am tired and I want to sleep.” After saying that, Jasmine walked into the bedroom and opened the cupboard to get her clothes.
