Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

“Not for now.” Shen Ron finished and swept a glance in the direction Miss Kiko left, “Did that Miss Kiko get you in trouble?”

“No.” Cheng Lydia grinned.

That wasn’t much of a hassle; the man she loved had been crushing on another woman and couldn’t resist a few sarcastic remarks was forgivable.

Every woman who can’t catch a man’s heart is pathetic. How many women in this world can have as many men like her as Yang June? Competing for her?

“It must be aggravating to play June.” Shen Ron sounded a little apologetic.

Cheng Lydia was still smiling lightly, saying it wasn’t aggravating was a lie, but she was happy to, as long as he felt happy.

Heart palpitating, Cheng Lydia was shocked by her own thoughts, how could she think such thoughts? How could she have such a great spirit of sacrifice? Was Shen Ron so high in her heart that she was worthy of such thoughts? Or had she been touched by what happened to him and Yang June? Had her compassion been so overwhelming?

No, she can’t lose herself because of pity, Yang June is much happier than her, Yang June has so many people to hold and love, what does she, Cheng Lydia, have? Nothing!

Snowflakes suddenly drifted outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, flying in crystalline flurries.

This is the first snow Cheng Lydia has seen this year, and you won’t see it in LS City.

“It’s snowing.” She murmured involuntarily before getting up from her chair, “I’ll go look inside the garden.”

The people here are obviously used to seeing snowy scenes early on, and not many of them notice that snowflakes have fallen outside, and even if they do, they are not interested in the snowy scenery.

“I’ll walk you to Hokkaido tomorrow to see it if you like.” Shen Ron followed and got up from his chair.

The two were just about to leave their seats when Duan Hannah happened to walk by.

“What? Aren’t you two going to see my baby?” Duan Hannah said with a big smile.

“Weren’t you the one who said your baby was afraid of the baby and wouldn’t let us see it.” Shen Ron said with an innocent look on his face.

“I was a little scared at first, but I’m better now, and look how much fun I’m having.” Duan Hannah gestured with her jaw not far away, and Cheng Lydia followed her gaze to see a cute little dot laughing and playing in the crowd, protected by her father.

Duan Hannah waved at Dot, and Not-So-Small waddled over to the side.

Cheng Lydia is always fond of children, and when she saw how cute and adorable the little one looked, she couldn’t resist picking him up from the ground. The little one was not afraid of the baby and giggled in her arms.

“What’s your name, little one?” Cheng Lydia took a cream cake from the table and gave it to him, the little one took it and ate it.

“He’s not much of a talker yet with this little mouth, but he likes to eat.” Duan Hannah smiled and stroked her son’s head, turning to Shen Ron: “Ron, you see Ms. Yang likes kids so much, you should hurry up and give her one too.”

Cheng Lydia’s face froze in a smile and her shy gaze quickly glanced over to Shen Ron just in time to make contact with the gaze he was looking over.

“Plans are in the works.” Shen Ron replied somewhat perfunctorily as he squeezed the little one’s fleshy little palm in his hand.

“Then you’ll have to hug my son more often to try to get a boy in one move.” Duan Hannah said turning to her son and coaxing, “Baby, auntie hug after uncle hug.”

“Uncle hold.” The little one obeyed, lisping and lunging into Shen Ron’s arms.

Shen Ron hastily reached out to catch it, and what he didn’t expect was the buttercream in the little guy’s hand smashing into his chest, smudging a large white patch on his black shirt.

“Ah …!” Shen Ron instinctively exclaimed, looking down at the patch of white on his chest.

“Oops, this little one is too naughty.” Duan Hannah hurriedly took the little one back from Shen Ron’s hand and said with an apologetic face, “Sorry sorry sorry, this little one is so bad.”

When he finished, he turned and called for the little nanny to take the little one away and grabbed the disinfected wet towel from the table.

Before that, Cheng Lydia had already taken a wet towel to wipe the cream off Shen Ron’s chest. But Duan Hannah squeezed her away from Shen Ron, took her place and quickly removed Shen Ron’s blazer, apologizing while wiping the cream on it with the towel, “I’m so sorry, I should have known not to give you a hug on him and get your clothes so dirty.”

After a gasp from Shen Ron and a startle from Duan Hannah, the eyes of most of the room were drawn to the room.

Cheng Lydia stood at the table, looking at Duan Hannah’s hands up and down Shen Ron’s chest as well as a concerned look on her face, and gradually grew a little uncomfortable.

This was supposed to be her job, and Duan Hannah had replaced her, stripping, groping and caring for her man in public, and how did that make her, as a wife, feel?

“It’s just a little cream, it won’t hurt.” Shen Ron said with a light smile as he slipped the suit jacket she had taken off to her arm back on.

Duan Hannah, however, let out an odd cry of surprise at this point: “Yo … Ron when did you become such a knuckle-dragger? This brand of shirt is bought over in Asakusa Bridge, right? I remember when you were studying you only wore Italian pure handmade, how come your taste has dropped at this age instead?”

Duan Hannah s words made Cheng Lydia s face instantly scarlet …

Although she didn’t know what Asakusa Bridge was, she could guess from Duan Hannah’s tone that it must be a bargain selling place, and the shirt Shen Ron was wearing was indeed inexpensive.

Knew I shouldn’t have bought Shen Ron a bargain, much less let him wear his shirt to such an occasion.

She gave Shen Ron an apologetic sweep, thinking that Shen Ron must hate to strangle her at this point after all the shame she’d put on him?

“It’s not like Ms. Yang bought it for you, is it? I remember Ms. Yang was quite a thrifty girl when she was a kid.” Duan Hannah scanned the duo with an ambiguous look on her face.

Cheng Lydia’s face, reddening even more like a familiar apple, she smiled shyly and forced herself to calm down, “I think Ron looks good in anything, no need to waste money on customizing those purely handmade, overpriced clothes.”

“That’s right.” Shen Ron stretched out his arm to take Cheng Lydia into his arms and said with a smile, “Married, of course you have to live a little at home, how can you dress so inviting and high-profile like before, attracting butterflies everywhere?”

Cheng Lydia looked up in surprise at Shen Ron’s happy, smiling face, and her heart instantly filled with gratitude for him.

Even though he was defending his image by saying so, she was still touched that finally, for one day, he was on the same page as her, on the same side.

The expression on Duan Hannah’s face changed, but she was also a good actor and quickly recovered and continued to smile, “And yes, our Ron looks good in everything and looks great in everything.”

To hide her defeat, she then changed the subject, “What did I just ask Ron for? Yes, playing cards, we haven’t played together in a while, we must touch a few rounds tonight to make it work, and Master Gu, how much cash do you have set aside for tonight?”

She turned aside again to Gu William.

Gu William shook his head with a light smile, “I have a six o’clock flight tomorrow morning, so I won’t be playing with you guys.”

“How can you do that, it’s so inadequate.”

“Next time, I’ll be sure to play all night with you next time.”

“What about Ron?” Duan Hannah turned to Shen Ron again.

Shen Ron twisted his head to look at Cheng Lydia and was about to refuse when Duan Hannah snatched a smile and joked, “What? Don’t worry, I’ll let the driver take care of taking her back to the hotel first.”

“Better another time, June she’ll be bored alone.” Shen Ron politely declined.

“Shen Ron you’re a bigot and so inadequate!” Duan Hannah feigned displeasure.

“You stay and play cards, I’m okay with being alone.” Cheng Lydia said with a smile to Shen Ron.

She had just embarrassed Shen Ron once, and she couldn’t let him embarrass himself again by making the group think he was a strict wife, so strict that he couldn’t play cards or wear big brand clothes.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t see Duan Hannah’s little tricks, but a young woman with a husband and kids, in her husband’s house, she didn’t believe she’d be able to play any tricks. Of course Shen Ron was not that hungry, he would not be interested in a young woman with a family.

Sitting in a strange carriage, Cheng Tian Che looked out the window at the snowflakes that had been falling more and more densely, and couldn’t help but reach out his palm to catch them. The snowflakes fell into the palm and instantly turned into water stains, leaving only a palm of cold.

Some things are like that, they can only be seen from a distance, not owned, and when they are forced to have them they are no longer the same as before.

Just as Shen Ron’s person, who doesn’t belong to her, is only a shell of him that she forces herself to get, the heart will never belong to her.

It’s not really that hard to play Yang June, what’s hard is her heart, which simply can’t adjust to being honest and not caring.

Cheng Lydia came back to her senses as the car suddenly stopped at the side of the road.

“Sorry, there may be a problem with the car.” The driver ripped off his seatbelt, went around to the front of the car, uncovered the front hood and came back around with an apologetic look on his face and said to Cheng Lydia, “Sorry, Ms. Yang, the car broke down, can I get you a taxi?”

“No, I can do it myself.” Cheng Lydia pushed open the car door and got out.

“Then Ms. Yang take care of yourself.” A stiff smile flashed across the driver’s face.

Cheng Lydia didn’t care, and with a nod she headed in the direction of the sidewalk.

She had already guessed that the driver had been instructed by Duan Hannah to drop her off on the side of the road in unfamiliar territory, but it didn’t matter, she wasn’t stupid enough to lose herself and didn’t care about getting snowed in.

It had been a long time since she had walked inside the snow, and she strides alone through the streets in search of a taxi stand.

Because it was so cold, there were very few actors on the street, and it was a good thing there wasn’t much snow, drifting sporadically on her, but the chill was biting.

Cheng Lydia tightened the collar of her coat, trying not to let the snow drift into her neck.

“Sister …” There was a sudden, delicate call from behind her. Cheng Lydia twisted her head to see a teenage girl looking at herself with a smile, while she was holding a folded umbrella in her hand that was stretched out to her heels.

The little girl looked Japanese, and the name she called her sister was extremely non-standard, as if she had learned it from now on.

“For me?” Cheng Lydia looked at the umbrella and pointed at herself.

I thought to myself, “Are all Japanese people so caring? They give umbrellas to people who don’t have one?

“There you go.” The little girl nodded and said something in Japanese that Cheng Lydia didn’t understand before pointing her finger at a BMW car that was passing quickly on the road.

Cheng Lydia followed her gaze just in time to see a flash of a man in the carriage, and it was actually Gu William!

The little girl had run away and the BMW car had become submerged in the traffic.

She is a man she doesn’t want to have any more encounters with, why Mr. Ho can appear at the right time when she is in need?

Standing on the taxi stand, Cheng Lydia hesitated to send a thank you message to Gu William, she couldn’t accept someone’s umbrella without even saying thank you.

Eventually, she sent him two short words, “Thanks.”

After texting, Cheng Lydia looked up and saw that across the street was the Roppongi Mori Building, the best place to see Tokyo at night, as Shen Ron had said.

She gave up on taking a cab back to the hotel, as it were, and took a step in the direction of the Mori Building.

The night view of Sen Mansion does look much more beautiful than the hotel there, so beautiful and moving that Cheng Lydia couldn’t resist taking out her phone and taking pictures like everyone else.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

While she was in the middle of a photo shoot, a text message popped up on her phone screen, she took it down and clicked on her inbox, since it was from Gu William: When will you come to Asakusa Bridge to buy me a shirt too?

Late to the party … since it was such a speechless sentence for Cheng Lydia.

It looks like he just saw Duan Hannah laughing at Shen Ron’s shirt, and she thought he would join Duan Hannah in laughing at her for buying cheap and despising her together, not … expecting it.

She hadn’t even considered how to reply when her phone suddenly ‘dripped’ twice and ran out of battery, automatically shutting down in the middle of the process.

She had to put her phone in her coat pocket and stand in front of the observation deck to look out at the night view.

The night view here was just beautiful, a 360-degree visual feast, so beautiful that she hesitated to leave and even forgot to go back to the hotel to rest.
