Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 52



After returning to the hotel, Cheng Lydia watched TV for a while with nothing to do, got sleepy and fell asleep in bed with her clothes.

I don’t know how long I slept, but I was shaken awake and opened my eyes to find it was Shen Ron.

Cheng Lydia sat up from her bed with a start and scanned the floor-to-ceiling windows to find that they were already lit up, which meant that she had slept through the night.

“It’s late, have you eaten?” She asked apologetically as she touched her face.

“Eaten, you don’t look like you’ve eaten?” Shen Ron looked at her askance.

“I went shopping on my own this afternoon.”

“Look out.” Shen Ron scanned the shopping bags in the corner of the suite.

“I ate noodles before I came back, I’m not hungry at all now.” Cheng Lydia got out of bed and hit her head with her hand, “There’s a party tonight, and look at me, I can’t believe I slept in until now.”

When he finished, he abruptly turned to look at Shen Ron, “By the way, I don’t have a gown yet, what should I do?”

Shen Ron looked at her with a panicked look on his face and spoke up to reassure her, “It’s okay, it’s an old friend’s son’s first birthday party, there are old acquaintances there, it’s okay to not wear a dress.”

Hearing him say that, Cheng Lydia was then relieved to pinch her breath.

“I’ll go take a shower first then.” Cheng Lydia pulled out a black slim-fit skirt from inside her closet, the skirt was knitted and above the knee, the style wasn’t exactly original but it looked downright elegant on her. It looked just right with the slim beige coat that Shen Ron had bought for her last night.

Cheng Lydia finished her shower, changed her clothes, and put on a simple light makeup inside the bathroom.

Although they were all old acquaintances, attending without makeup would have made her look a bit out of fashion, which was fine with her, but she was afraid of losing Shen Ron’s face.

After all, these days, it’s no longer fashionable for women to be naturally beautiful and emerge from the water.

Makeup stands for sophistication and even more so for fashion.

When Cheng Lydia stepped out from inside the bathroom, Shen Ron had already changed and was fixing the shirt on his body in the mirror.

To Cheng Lydia’s double surprise, Shen Ron was wearing the same black shirt that she intended to buy for LILY her husband today.

She stood in the bathroom doorway looking at him with a surprised look on her face.

Shen Ron scanned her in the mirror and pulled the tie from the back of the chair and tied it around his neck as he said, “Just the right size and a nice style.”

“That …” Cheng Lydia’s mouth dropped open.

Shen Ron’s hands paused as he was tying his tie, gazing at Cheng Lydia in the mirror with her mouth open but unable to speak, then turned to stare at her, “Didn’t you buy it for me?”

The expression on his face gloomed along with his tone.

“Not …”

“I can’t believe it’s really not for me?!” Someone’s face grew grimmer and grimmer, his eyebrows raised slightly as he questioned in a cold voice, “For whom, Gu William? Lim Toby?”

“Not …”

“Who’s that?”

“It’s … for Sister LILY’s husband.”

Shen Ron’s face half cleared of its gloom and he eyed her suspiciously, “You buy clothes for Lily’s husband? You’ve met him? You know what size he wears? You’re not even hitting on him, are you?”

“Not at all, I haven’t met him and I didn’t want to hit on him for anything.” Cheng Lydia saw how crooked he was thinking, and after thinking about it, she said truthfully, “Actually, I just saw this shirt when I passed by this brand store and saw that it was very nice and good quality, and it was only 50% off, so I thought it would be a waste not to buy it. I originally wanted to buy it for you, but I thought you definitely wouldn’t wear such small brand clothes, and there wasn’t a second man around to give it to, so it just so happens that Sister Lily has been taking care of me for a while, so I thought I’d just bring one for her husband.”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Seeing that there was still a fox on his face, Cheng Lydia was busy adding, “Last time I helped Sister LILY’s husband buy clothes online, so I know his size, and I didn’t expect that you also happen to wear this size …”

So that was it, Shen Ron’s face was finally back to normal.

He turned away and continued to fix his tie in the mirror while saying nonchalantly, “I just messed up my shirt at dinner, and I’m just missing a shirt, so I’ll make do with it.”

Well put … says it reluctantly.

Cheng Lydia looked at him speechlessly, what kind of person would do that, even if he took away someone’s clothes, even if he didn’t say thank you, and even if he put on a face of aggravation and begging.

“In the future, you shouldn’t be so hung up on other people’s husbands, so as not to cause internal strife in their families, you know?” Shen Ron suddenly said this again.

“I know.” Cheng Lydia replied stiffly.

Shen Ron turned around and pointed a jaw in the direction of the table, “Brought you a snack from the restaurant, have some before you go out to save yourself from getting hungry at night.”

Cheng Lydia followed his gaze to the table and saw a box of treats on it.

She walked over to the box and opened it, and the neatly arranged treats on top looked appetizing.

She glanced up at Shen Ron, it was hard to imagine him walking out of the restaurant with a packed box after accompanying a client to dinner. A man who cared a little about his image wouldn’t be able to do such a thing, would he?

As far as she was concerned, Shen Ron was an extremely image and face conscious person himself!

“What? Don’t like it?” Shen Ron looked at her who was motionless.

It’s a speciality of that restaurant, and he goes there once every time he comes to Japan.

“No.” Cheng Lydia shook her head and picked up a piece of the pastry and put it in her mouth, it tasted as wonderful as it sold. She looked up and smiled at Shen Ron, “It’s delicious.”

Shen Ron’s half-hanging heart finally settled, and it wasn’t for nothing that he had the cheek to ask the waiter to pack it.

The hostess of tonight’s party is a Chinese, Duan Hannah, who married two years ago and the couple currently runs a public company in Japan and is a junior high school friend of Shen Ron’s.

The party was held at the Duan Hannah villa and the invitees were some of the most prominent people in the community.

When Shen Ron and Cheng Lydia arrived at the villa, they were greeted by Duan Hannah on the arm of her husband, Mr. Yamamoto, who bowed to the two men in greeting, and Cheng Lydia was busy returning his polite greeting.

“Ron, I thought you guys weren’t coming.” Duan Hannah smirked as she surveyed Shen Ron.

“I just happened to be in Japan on business and thought I’d stop by since I haven’t seen you in over four years.” Shen Ron scanned the brightly lit garden, “Looks like a good crowd tonight.”

“A little more than expected indeed.” Duan Hannah said with a big smile, “Ron and Master Gu were among the most pleasant surprises.”

Cheng Lydia was stunned, sizing up the smiling Duan Hannah, was the Master Gu… she was talking about Gu William?

I hope not!

Her eyes unconsciously began to search for Gu William inside the garden, but of course, she only swept around in a wide circle before withdrawing her gaze.

As her eyes turned back to Duan Hannah’s face, Cheng Lydia looked at the smile on her face and somehow felt vaguely piercing through the cold.

Was it just her? Or was Duan Hannah’s smile meant to be that way?

“Master Gu’s here too?” Shen Ron raised an eyebrow.

“Yes, it’s so interesting that he flew to Japan from LS City immediately after receiving the invitation.”

“That’s for sure, who dares not come to the invitation of your Duan school girl?” Shen Ron laughed.

“See what you said.” Duan Hannah’s gaze finally turned to Cheng Lydia again, smiling, “Ms. Yang hasn’t seen you in four years, you’re still so young and pretty, when are you going to give Ron one too?”

Cheng Lydia’s palm that she held within the crook of Shen Ron’s arm tightened, and a flash of depressed feeling instantly flooded from her body and went straight to her limbs.

It turns out that this Mrs. Yamamoto has been mistaking her for Yang June, only as a classmate, doesn’t she know the news that Yang June has been in a coma from a car accident?

And yes, who would believe it when they see a person who looks exactly like Yang June standing beside Shen Ron and say she is not Yang June?

She stole a glance up at Shen Ron and found that his face still held a light smile and he had no intention of opening his mouth to explain.

Just when she didn’t know what to do with herself, Duan Hannah suddenly waved in the direction of her right rear, “Master Gu, what are you standing there for? It’s not like you don’t know Ron and Ms. Yang.”

“I’m just embarrassed to interrupt your conversation.” Gu William walked over with a light smile, flanked by a sexy woman with a Japanese face.

Gu William’s gaze flicked over Cheng Lydia’s full and nodded politely at the two.

Cheng Lydia withdrew her gaze from the two with almost a glance, consciously avoiding what was going on, instead Shen Ron smirked as he surveyed the two and opened his mouth, “Are Master Gu and Miss Muzi rekindling their old love?”

“Good evening Ron, good evening Ms. Yang.” The sexy miko daintily bowed at the two men before leaning her body towards Gu William’s side.

She actually doesn’t know Yang June and is following Duan Hannah in calling Cheng Lydia that.

Cheng Lydia returned the smile stiffly, not feeling very well inside.

Had she known it would be like this, she wouldn’t have come at all.

What is this now? Is she playing Yang June and Shen Ron as a loving couple? And who else knows the truth here besides Gu William? What a mess!

Duan Hannah was busy greeting other guests, and while no one was looking, Cheng Lydia fixed Shen Ron with an annoyed stare, clearly questioning him with her eyes about what was going on in all this.

Shen Ron leaned over her ear with an apologetic voice and said, “It’s going to be hard to explain to the group for a while, so I’ll just have to give you a hard time.”

Is that an apology?

Cheng Lydia was upset.

Yet it seems she has no other choice but to continue playing Yang June.

Shen Ron was busy talking to an acquaintance, Cheng Lydia sat alone in a corner seat sipping her cup of coffee, her eyes sweeping over the direction of the terrace just in time to see Gu William turn around, their eyes crossing the crowd and intertwining in mid-air.

Cheng Lydia was busy withdrawing her eyes and looking down to stir the coffee in her cup with her spoon.

A nice perfume faintly brushed her nose, followed by a delicate figure taking a seat beside her, Cheng Lydia raised her head and immediately recognized the beautiful woman in front of her as the sexy woman who had just nestled beside Gu William.

Woody’s face had long since lost the pettiness it had at first, instead it was covered in coldness as she scowled at her with disdain and uttered, “You didn’t look good as a child, and you still don’t look good when you grow up.”

Woody speaks Chinese very well, no worse than a Chinese person.

Cheng Lydia found it funny and pointed to herself, “Miss Woody has met me?”

Kimiko pulled out her phone, held it down a few times and then handed it to her.

Cheng Lydia scanned the screen, sucked in by the girl on it who was strange and felt familiar.

She blinked hard, yes, the girl on top was clearly a smaller version of herself, and underneath the photo were seven words: number one love interest Yang June

The girl was probably in her late teens, wearing a LS City First Elementary School uniform, her long black hair tied high on the back of her head with a purple hairband adorned with glazed beads, her features clean and pure, her body petite, and she was sitting behind a bicycle smiling with a quick face of joy. And sitting in front of the bike was actually Shen Ron.

That’s right, it’s Shen Ron, a young teenager of 14 or 15.

Shen Ron stood with his head half cocked, seemingly talking about something happy, and both of them laughed extra hard.

The phone was put back by Miko.

“Where did the photos come from?” Cheng Lydia stared up at her in surprise.

“Saw it on Master Gu’s phone a long time ago.” Kimiko shoved her phone into her handbag and cast a disdainful glance at her once again, “I really don’t understand what Master Gu likes about you, after all these years of crushing on you.”

With that, she got up and twisted her pretty waist and left.

Cheng Lydia, of course, knew that the girl in the photo was Yang June, but he just couldn’t understand why the photo was in Gu William’s phone.

She suddenly remembered what Gu William had said that day at the ski resort, that he had once liked a girl, but that girl had chosen another boy.

She remembers what Shen Ron said that day when he asked for her, he said that Gu William has been secretly in love with Yang June, it turns out that he didn’t say that casually, it turns out that the girl Gu William was talking about was Yang June.

Yang June, yeah, why do so many men like her? Why?

“Lost in thought about what?” Shen Ron’s voice suddenly sounded behind her, pulling a chair along to sit beside her.

“Nothing, you don’t have to talk to acquaintances?” Cheng Lydia looked at him and thought about the teenager in the photo just now who had grown up, matured, and married Yang June … as she had hoped.

But that little girl with the big smile was brutally involved in a car accident and never woke up again.
