After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback!

884 Keeping Up Appearances

Some people even said that Qiao Yu did not want to listen to her relatives who wanted to introduce her to a rich old man. Qiao Yu did not agree, so her rich relatives started to make things difficult for her.

There were also people who said that Qiao Yu did not know how to behave herself and had asked her rich relatives for gifts, so they were unwilling to care about Qiao Yu anymore. When the higher-ups saw that Qiao Yu was no longer useful, they started to think of ways to find trouble with her.

There were all kinds of stories. There were even people who specially went to ask Su Yang about it to see if he was still willing to be with Qiao Yu after knowing about what she was going through.

Su Yang did not react at all, but he actually felt a little happy.

It was not as if he wooed Qiao Yu because she had a powerful backer. He just took a fancy to her because she was young and good-looking and she was a stupid woman without any bad intentions.

By the time it was nighttime, Qiao Yu barely managed to complete all the tasks assigned to her by the team leader of the workshop. She tidied up her clothes and hair in front of the reflective glass and hurriedly ran back to the dormitory to borrow clothes.

“Sister, can you lend me your cotton jacket?” Qiao Yu asked with a smile.

The older woman behaved differently from usual and pointed at her cotton jacket as she said, “You borrow my cotton jacket every day. Is it my clothes or yours? This is a new set of clothes that my daughter bought for me. I haven’t even worn it! I didn’t even pursue the matter when you dirtied my clothes after wearing it, yet you still dare to come and borrow my clothes! I’m not lending it to you!”

Qiao Yu turned to look at the others. The rest of them had the same attitude as that older woman. Qiao Yu had no choice but to put on her own tattered cotton jacket. The thin layer could not keep her warm at all.

After leaving the room, Qiao Yu muttered softly as she turned towards the door, “If you won’t lend it to me, then so be it! What’s there to be so smug about! It’s just a piece of clothing! What’s so great about it, it’s not like I can’t afford it myself!”

After muttering a few words to vent her anger, she quickly ran towards the entrance of the factory. What if Su Yang waited too long and had already left?

Fortunately, Su Yang was still around when Qiao Yu arrived. He even brought Qiao Yu a small loaf of bread, worried that the journey would be too long and she would feel hungry.

“You didn’t wait too long, did you?” Qiao Yu asked with a smile.

“It’s fine! I’m fine no matter how long I wait! Why are you wearing so little? I remember you had a red cotton jacket before. Where did it go?” Su Yang asked curiously.

Qiao Yu quickly changed the topic and said, “Um… where are we going tonight?”

Su Yang held Qiao Yu’s hand as they walked out and he said, “Let’s go and eat something delicious today! My house is nearby and there’s a restaurant that serves very delicious food. Let’s go and eat there today!”

Qiao Yu quickly looked around to see if there was anyone she knew. She tacitly allowed Su Yang to hold her hand. After all, she had to give him some benefits.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the restaurant. Although this restaurant was not big, it was one of the best in the vicinity. Usually, there were no seats available at this time of the day. Su Yang had even spent one dollar on a phone call to ask the boss to reserve a table for him! It was so that he could come here to eat with Qiao Yu.

Su Yang politely handed the menu to Qiao Yu and said, “Take a look at what you want to eat. Let’s eat whatever we want today!”

Qiao Yu hurriedly returned the menu to Su Yang. She could not take on this heavy responsibility. If Su Yang ran away halfway through the meal, she did not have enough money to pay the bill. It was better for Su Yang to order.

“Su Yang, I don’t know how to order either. You should order. I eat anything,” Qiao Yu said.

Of course Su Yang knew what Qiao Yu was up to, but he was in a good mood today and did not want to be so calculative with her. Coincidentally, he had just received his salary and could eat freely today.

“Boss! Give me a serving of stewed meat, minced meat, braised pork and this steamed fish!” Su Yang shouted out boldly.

When the boss saw that this was a big customer, he served them enthusiatically. The customers at the other tables also looked in Su Yang’s direction. These four dishes were all meat dishes. After using the various meat coupons and vegetable coupons, he still had to pay the boss 11 dollars and 50 cents!

Ordinary people would not be able to afford such good food. It seemed that this young man was on a date with his girlfriend and putting on an act in front of her.
