The only person who found this scene irritating was probably Fu Yi. He put down the phone he had picked up, glaring ahead with a nasty look, as if his eyes could devour someone.
Is this the boyfriend she mentioned?
Jiang Nuan and Jerry walked along the way to the small convenience store. Jerry went in to buy drinks for his family, and she returned home.
"Knock, knock."
She knocked on the door.
The Filipina maid opened the door for her, "Miss Susan, are you tired? Would you like to have lunch here?"
Jiang Nuan returned the dog to her and politely declined her offer to stay for lunch. "No, thank you. Here's your dog. It played for a long time, maybe give it some water."
The maid took the dog and nodded, "Alright."
Still hoping, she asked again, "Miss Susan, are you sure you won't stay for lunch? I made a lot of delicious local Mahali dishes."
"No, I won't."
Jiang Nuan was still troubled by the phone call and declined the maid's invitation, heading home.
