Can't Take My Eyes Off You - Chapter 871

Chapter 871: What’s Going On?

“You are so brilliant! When you praise someone, they are completely convinced.” Lu Xiaoxiao patted Jiang Yao’s waist. “That’s it; it looks like your red envelope will be bigger than mine this year. I couldn’t even close my mouth when I saw Auntie’s smile!”

Lu Xiaoxiao glared at Jiang Yao with an unconvinced look. “If I had known that there was such an advantage to reading more books, I would have read more books back then. Praises can always get me a bigger red envelope.”

“You’re making me laugh to my death.” Mrs Lu was not only happy with Jiang Yao’s praises but also because of Lu Xiaoxiao’s playful expression. She was so amused that the wrinkles on her face showed.

“Yaoyao, why don’t you go shopping with Auntie? Your second brother and I want to buy things that are probably too boring for a girl like you. I’ll give you a call when we are done shopping. Then, we’ll meet up and go home together.”

Jiang Jie thought since his sister would spend more time with their family during that vacation, he should let her spend some time with her mother-in-law, especially when she could not find anyone to shop with her.

“Okay!” Jiang Yao could not be bothered to deal with Yang Gaoshu’s constant probing, so she had agreed to that.

Jiang Yao responded too quickly, even before Mrs Lu had a chance to reject the offer. Since it did not seem like Jiang Yao was in a difficult position, she did not say anything else.

She was happy that Jiang Yao could accompany her to go shopping, but her daughter-in-law was not her biological daughter, after all. She was afraid that Jiang Yao would not want to accompany her.

Jiang Yao, Mrs Lu and Lu Xiaoxiao left together, but before that, Jiang Yao took a look at Yang Gaoshu’s expression. It seemed like everyone had understood what Lu Xiaoxiao had meant.

Jiang Yao began to look forward to it. She did not know how Yang Gaoshu would explain it to her brother. She would have to tell her how she had the money to purchase those things that cost a person’s salary for several years.

Jiang Yao had always thought that her brother would break up with Yang Gaoshu. He could be depressed for a while, but he would eventually get over it. It was a good thing, so she did not want to interfere in her brother’s love life. She was prepared to let it progress naturally.

However, she had changed her mind, especially after Lu Xiaoxiao told her about those things. She could not tolerate it anymore.

She had to cut the cord. Jiang Lei had to discover Yang Gaoshu’s true nature, slowly but surely. He could hate her a little more every day. Perhaps it was also a good idea to break them up quickly; there would not be any time for Jiang Lei to sink deeper.

After she left her brothers, Jiang Yao and Lu Xiaoxiao took each of Mrs Lu’s arms. Jiang Yao also helped her carry the paper bag she had in her hand. The three of them continued to shop around town.

Mrs Lu had bought clothes for her husband. Then, they went to the shopping mall and went straight to the ladies department.

They had wanted to help Mrs Lu to choose some new clothes, but they did not expect to see a commotion when they went to the second floor.

There were so many people there, and they could not even squeeze their way into the counter.

“What’s going on?” Mrs Lu asked a person from the crowd. She did not expect to see the parent of one of her students.

“Teacher Li.” The parent greeted her excitedly when he saw Mrs Lu. Parents always held teachers in the highest regard. Then he saw the two young ladies beside Mrs Lu. He asked, “Are they your daughters? They are so beautiful! You are so lucky to have such beautiful daughters.”
