Chapter 2560 - 2568: I Intruded
Jane Sampson and Nia interact frequently, and Nia, this child, is like a cross-generational good friend to Jane Sampson.
To Jane Sampson, Nia is not just an ordinary child from another family.
Jane Sampson and Nina Rice have spent extraordinary thought and energy on this child Nia, so Nia’s passing, for instance, would affect Jane Sampson’s emotions.
But unfortunately, James Black has been busy these days and hasn’t found the time to accompany Jane Sampson, so James Black can only video call her every day after she finishes her drama, to see her daily condition, check her complexion, and talk to her more to shift her attention.
Although Coco Edwards reports Jane Sampson’s situation every day, James Black knows Jane Sampson well enough that if she wants to hide her feelings or disguise her state, Coco wouldn’t be able to tell.
No matter how many times Coco Edwards reports that Jane Sampson hasn’t been greatly affected, and is working, eating, and resting as usual, it still doesn’t reassure James Black as much as seeing for himself.
"I initially planned to have dinner with Bright Sampton this evening, but once you called me, I could hear how much you miss me, so I left him to come see you." At this point, Jane Sampson remembered to pick up her mobile phone to send a WhatsApp message to Bright Sampton, telling him that dinner tonight has been postponed, as she’s now at James Black’s base.
Bright Sampton sent Jane Sampson three knife emojis in protest, accusing Jane Sampson of forgetting friendship for romance, and ditching him at this hour.
Jane, truly, you and my brother-in-law shouldn’t have a daughter. Otherwise, once your daughter starts dating, you will feel how heartbreaking it is to be ditched like now. — Bright Sampton.
Sweetie, once I’m tired of James Black and return to the city, I’ll personally cook to make amends. — James Black’s wife.
Then I fear I might have to wait until I die of old age, your brother-in-law is your heart, your liver, two-thirds of your life. — Bright Sampson.
There’s still one-third left for you, isn’t there? [Being well-behaved] — James Black’s wife.
This remaining third is your work, so, sorry, I’ve interrupted. — Bright Sampton.
I should be under the car, not inside the car, witnessing how sweet you both are~ [Feeling aggrieved] — Bright Sampton.
Jane Sampson burst out laughing, completely sensing Bright Sampton’s resentment through this not-so-perfectly expressed lyric.
Noticing James Black glancing at her several times, Jane Sampson stopped replying to Bright Sampton and put away her mobile phone.
The car was already parked in the parking lot, and the news of Jane Sampson’s arrival at the base had begun to spread within the base.
James Black parked the car, and during the blink-of-an-eye moment when he turned to the trunk to get Jane Sampson’s suitcase, quite a few people gathered around to talk to Jane Sampson.
"Sister-in-law, you’ve become even more beautiful!"
"Sister-in-law! The peach trees on the mountain have bloomed. Once the peaches are ripe, will you come to the base to eat peaches? We’ll go up the mountain and pick some for you, especially sweet hairy peaches."
"Sister-in-law, I have potato chips here, would you like some? Cucumber-flavored, really fragrant, shall we eat together?"
A group of teenagers eagerly surrounded Jane Sampson like a pack of monkey kids.
"I’ll skip the potato chips, someone wouldn’t be happy if I eat them. Make sure to save two peaches for me once they’re ripe, I’ll definitely come to the base to eat them; last year’s peaches were so sweet, I could eat them as a meal." Talking about peaches made Jane Sampson realize how quickly time passes.
