RAWFTCAB (Jenlisa Adaptation)

Part 18

True to her words, Lisa did visit her parents the next day to see how they were doing.

When Father Manoban saw his daughter, he felt his heart ache with grief. He knew about the card Mother Manoban had given her. Hah, this child of his would only fulfill her filial piety when there's money involved. He even thought about whether or not to close down her restaurant. Maybe that way she will visit them more often.

Naturally, Lisa did not know that her parents were already reaching this reckless point.

Her mother's food has always been delicious, so Lisa wolfed down a lot of food. She wanted to eat such delicious food every day, but she felt like she would be a nuisance to her parents if she visited every day.

"Slow down and eat. Your brother isn't here, so no one will compete with you for food." Although Mother Manoban complained, she still said in a pampering tone, "Are you coming back for New Year's Day?

Lisa shook her head. If she visited, she would have to stay for at least a few days. No, she needed to make money for her wife, so where would she find the time to spare?

"Well, you at least have to bring your wife over so she can get to know the family better." Mother Manoban complained.

Lisa thought about it. Jennie had just met her family a few days earlier, so she most likely wouldn't want to come. She picked up a piece of fish and said, "We'll see."

Mother Manoban gave her a helpless look and stood up to get some more food.

When Lisa left, she cleaned out the kitchen like a bandit, not understanding Mother Manoban's reluctance....

"Don't you ever come back!" Mrs. Manoban clutched her chest dramatically. This child had carried off all her snacks and little delicacies she was saving for herself, so of course she was in pain.

Pretending she didn't hear anything, Lisa returned to her apartment with a big box of food.

Jennie arrived at the school a little early. Since she had the time, she cleaned up her office, then water her hyacinths and observed any changes. Sometimes she would write a note or two in her book.

As a Humanities teacher who taught science students, she was often idle like this.

"Teacher Kim is watering the flowers again?" Chahee closed the door and took off her gray hat and teased, "You truly are the definition of 'Buddha' that the students say you are."

Jennie glanced at her and smiled, "Nonsense, it's only because I have nothing else to do."

"Well, that's true too." Chahee sat down and then looked around. She found that the area around her had been cleaned, this wasn't something someone would do just because they had 'nothing else to do'. In her heart she thought, If you're that idle, why don't you sleep more instead? After all, it is the cozy winter season.

"Your bag is really pretty." Jennie stopped her work and suddenly broke the silence.

"Ah?" Chahee froze for a moment, then her face flushed as she explained, "Oh, it was given to me the day before Christmas. My boyfriend gave it to me."

Seeing that Jennie initiated the conversation, Chahee handed her the purse for a closer look and then asked, "Did your lover give you anything?"

"Yes." Jennie received the bag and studied it. She had been thinking of giving Lisa something for New Year's day and although a bag or lipstick was good, she had no idea what style Lisa liked. She looked up and asked, "Did you give him anything in return?"

"I did, I gave him a tie. It was quite expensive." Chahee felt a bit of pain after remembering the price, but the Louis Vuitton bag she got was even more expensive, so she was appeased.
