Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime
Chapter 1341

Chapter 1341: Chapter 1341

"You’re absolutely right!" Aunt nodded repeatedly, "That’s exactly what I meant."

She lowered her voice again and continued, "A family that can prepare royal meals must be very traditional, right? Janie is so fashionable, I wonder if his parents will like her. I’ve heard that in some conservative families, women are not even allowed to have meals at the table..."

Grandma frowned at this, then turned to Ruby Spencer to discuss, "How about... letting Janie have a look?"

The implication was clear: if they really were that kind of family, it would be wise to withdraw early.

It’s a realistic world, when men and women are dating, although they both invest time and emotions equally, in the end, it’s usually the women who suffer more.

Jane McCain didn’t get a chance to speak the entire time. She just felt the plot taking a sudden twist, dizzying her, while watching a group of elders determine her itinerary, having her leave with Allen Rivera in the afternoon and spend a few more days for convenient "deep observation" of the family affairs.

Jane hesitated, "Isn’t it too sudden..."

Her aunt quickly responded, "Oh my dear lady, you didn’t think a flash marriage was sudden, what’s so sudden about a proper family visit!"

"Ahem, ahem!" Ruby Spencer coughed severely twice.

Bringing up the ex in front of the current partner, that is taboo!

Aunt also realized she had misspoken, quieted down, smiled awkwardly, and went to the kitchen.

Jane and Ruby went back to the room to pack their things, while Allen stayed in the living room to continue chatting with Jane’s grandfather, uncle, aunt, and uncle-in-law, etc.

...

Jane came to her grandparents’ house for the New Year and was only planning to stay a few days, so she hadn’t brought many clothes.

Now looking through her suitcase, she couldn’t help but feel a bit frustrated.

"I still feel like it’s too sudden, I haven’t prepared at all..." She took out a few pieces of clothing, held them against herself, and felt dissatisfied with whatever she tried.

"If I had known today was going to happen, I would have custom-made a few tight-fitting slit dresses before. His parents might like more traditional girls... Alas, but I look strange in tight-fitting slit dresses, not as pretty as Zara and Purple wearing them..."

Jane fumbled through her clothes while muttering to herself.

Ruby looked at her daughter, feeling extremely complex emotions.

What’s sudden? According to her, Allen was fully prepared, visiting them for the New Year, hitting the nail on every point, very deep-minded.

She didn’t mind a man being deep-minded; it’s better than those who don’t care. But seeing Jane with this deeply affected behavior...

Ruby couldn’t help but shake her head and sigh.

Already crushed completely, beyond saving.

"Wear this one." She walked over and helped Jane pick her clothes.

"Your personality is too lively; you can’t express the classical elegance and softness of a tight-fitting slit dress. Clothes are just pieces of fabric, but they also require spiritual harmony. The wearer needs to speak softly, walk delicately, only then can they achieve the refined aura... If you wear a tight-fitting slit dress, one hearty laugh will ruin the look."

"Mom, you’re making me sound like a bandit..." Jane pouted.

"Hmm, no wonder the prosecutor took you away." Ruby’s tone was rather helpless.

Jane tilted her head, scrutinizing Ruby, "Mom, do you... not like Allen?"

Ruby said, "What difference does it make whether I like him or not? If I don’t like him, can you leave him?"

Jane was momentarily stunned, staring blankly at Ruby.

Ruby chuckled, lightly patted Jane’s back, "I don’t have any issues with Allen. He’s nice enough; I’m just worried he’s too capable, and in the future, when you’re wronged, Mom won’t be able to stand up for you."

As parents, they probably all have this contradictory mindset, hoping their daughter marries an excellent man, but if he’s too excellent, fearing they can’t wield influence during conflicts.

Ruby looked at her daughter, silently sighing in her heart.

It’s not that Jane isn’t clever, it’s just when facing Allen, all that little cleverness turns into a daze...
