Jas Black nodded and gave a grunt of affirmation.
Jane Sampson’s heart gave a yelp of surprise, "This guy’s acting weird! He’s not asking to stay! He’s not dragging along?"
"Oh, I also picked up so snacks for you at my dormitory today," Jas’s tone was a bit indifferent, sounding almost like an afterthought.
However, the figure that had slightly turned away clearly shifted back just a bit, and that soone’s eyes practically spelled out, "What did you buy?"
Jane Sampson was definitely soone who couldn’t stay focused even when angry, and her irritability was never single-minded.
"I think I grabbed a pack of Alps candy, seems like there was also a pack of marshmallows, two bags of potato chips, one bag of broad beans..." Everything he ntioned ca from Peter Gingery’s private stash.
Jane had already turned her whole body back around without realizing it.
Jane felt those snacks had to be Jas’s way of apologizing, surely sothing he bought especially for her.
So, would it not be a bit unfair to herself if she didn’t go and eat them?
But if she let herself be easily appeased by so food, wouldn’t that make her seem particularly spineless and easy to please?
After tornting herself for nearly one minute, Jane decided that she had never had much backbone when it ca to Jas, so it didn’t matter if it was gone.
However, she still had to put up a front.
"It’s not great to leave so many red berries in the fridge, and I’ve promised them that I would make red berry jam, so since I’m a person of integrity, I’ll go to yours first and make the red berry jam before I co back." Jane felt this excuse was perfectly reasonable.
Jas Black didn’t blow Jane Sampson’s cover, deciding to coax her back ho first and talk later.
On their way back, Jane just rembered she forgot to ask Jas to prepare white sugar, but fortunately, the guardian team’s convenience store had so in stock.
Upon entering, Jas Black, carrying about twenty pounds of white sugar, walked ahead, while Jane Sampson followed leisurely behind him into the house.
After changing shoes, Jas took the stuff and went to the kitchen; Jane’s eyes scoured the living room, then she spotted a bag resembling a snack stash on the TV cabinet.
She rushed over, lifted the bag, and sure enough, it was the very snacks Jas had ntioned, which ant he wasn’t scamming her.
Jane looked towards the kitchen, quickly opened a lollipop package, and while Jas wasn’t looking, she snuck one in.
But eating lollipops is sothing you simply can’t hide, so after Jas made a brief trip to and from the kitchen and ca back out, there sat Jane on the sofa, feet propped up, cheeks bulging with unmistakable roundness. Jas felt it wasn’t surprising in the least.
This was indeed sothing Jane Sampson would do.
Hearing Jas’s footsteps, Jane turned her head, squinted her eyes, and gave him a smile.
Candy sweetens the mood.
Jane stood up and said, "I’m off to the kitchen for a bit."
After saying this, she humd a tune and headed into the kitchen. When she reached the kitchen doorway, she called out to Jas to co and help her.
It wasn’t until they were in the kitchen that Jas learned to never underestimate a woman adept at expanding the slightest advantage into a full-blown operation.
Jane had him running around while she herself stood to the side, popping washed red berries into her mouth nonstop. Whenever he looked her way, Jane would swiftly place a hand on her lower back, rub it, press down, or mutter, "So tired."
By the ti an entire pot of red berry jam was ready, Jas had also learned how to make it.
