Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 127



Early the next morning, Cheng Lydia was asked by her mother to go to the market with her to buy groceries.

Cheng Lydia reluctantly said, “There’s no point in going to the market, I’m going for a morning run with my brother.”

This is something she and Shen Ron have been doing every day for a while now, as Shen Ron has a habit of running in the morning, at first it was Cheng Lydia who ran after him like a heel despite Shen Ron’s bombardment because it was fun, and then when she felt that it was not new and did not want to run, she was dragged along by Shen Ron instead.

Shen Ron would love to have some company for his morning run.

“Do as you’re told, no morning run for brother today.” Cheng Lena fetched the vegetable basket from inside the kitchen.

“Why doesn’t brother run in the morning?” Cheng Lydia asked.

“I asked my brother to do some dry work for me at home.”

“Then I’ll be working at home too.”

“Cheng …” Cheng Lena was annoyed, almost calling out her full name as she swept a quick glance at Shen Ron in the courtyard, lowering her voice in anger and reproach, “You can’t stay away from your brother for a moment now?”

Cheng Lydia’s small mouth flattened as she whispered, “People just don’t want to go to the market. …”

Cheng Lena pulled her towards the door whether she liked it or not. On the way out, she handed a message to Shen Ron who was fixing the faucet in the garden, “Ron, stay put, we’ll be right back.”

“Okay, Auntie.” Shen Ron responded without turning his head.

It was only after walking out of the house that Cheng Lydia asked Cheng Lena with a puzzled look on her face, “Didn’t mommy say before that the tap didn’t work and to leave it alone?”

“Silly girl, mommy led you out because she didn’t want you to meet up with Ron’s grandmother so that your fake identity wouldn’t be compromised.” Cheng Lena gave her a cross look, “You’re the only one who has a lot to do, you’re still reluctant to go to a market with me.”

Cheng Lydia was surprised and looked up to survey her mother, “Mom is saying that Old Lady Shen is coming over today?”

“Hmm.”

“What’s the old lady doing over here?”

“Of course I’m here to take Brother Ron back.”

“So is brother leaving today?” Cheng Lydia asked, anxious on her feet.

“Maybe, better get back today.”

Cheng Lena always felt uncomfortable with the Buddha around her, and she couldn’t wait for Shen Ron to figure it out and go home soon.

Noticing that there was no movement around her, Cheng Lena turned her head only to find that Cheng Lydia had not followed her, but instead turned around and walked in the direction of her home, she scrambled to catch up, “Lydia, what are you doing?”

Cheng Lydia said with anxious tears, “I don’t want to go to the market, my brother will be gone when I come back.”

“Lydia!” Cheng Lena gasped, pulling her back to look down at her, “What did mommy tell you before, that brother Ron has his own home, his own family, he’s not your real brother and can’t stay by your side. ”

“I know … but I just don’t want to let my brother go.”

“Brother is just going home, it’s not like we’re never going to see each other again.”

“Isn’t brother leaving the country?”

“You’ll be back just the same when you’re out of the country, do you expect your brother to be uneducated and just stay here with you every day for your crazy pleasure?”

Cheng Lydia did not say anything, she was also so conflicted in her heart, that is, she did not want her brother to leave, but did not want him to become an uneducated and useless youth.

What to do?

Cheng Lena patted her shoulder soothingly, “Well, don’t be so ignorant again.”

Shen Ron was not at all surprised by the old lady’s sudden appearance, and guessed that she would come over sooner or later.

Sitting on the sofa, the old lady took his left hand and looked at the new scar on his wrist that had been cut. You are wrong, your father will only be sad and blame himself for a month at most, and then it will be a happy family of three living happily ever after. For that woman, she’ll be begging for it, because with you dead, everything about The Shen Family will belong to her.”

Shen Ron drew his hand back faintly and didn’t say a word.

He knew he was cowardly in doing so, and was indeed furious and faint at the time. During this time, with Cheng Lydia’s enlightenment and companionship, he gradually realized his foolishness in the first place and gradually thought out of it.

If he could do it all over again, he wouldn’t do something like that again that hurt himself and cheapened others.

Seeing his silence, the old lady asked, as it were, instead, “How are you thinking about leaving the country?”

“I don’t want to go.” Shen Ron replied with a serious look on his face.

“Why? Give me a proper reason.”

Shen Ron opened his mouth for a long moment before spitting out, “I don’t want to leave LS City.”

“You can even abandon your home, what else can’t you throw away?”

“…” Shen Ron couldn’t answer.

He had considered the question of leaving the country with great care, only to finally decide to stay, and as to what it was that made him so cutthroat, he wasn’t quite sure himself.

“Is it because of Yang June?” The old lady asked.

The question struck Shen Ron as he looked at the old woman in surprise.

Is it because of Yang June? This question really dumbfounded him, only to find it extremely funny.

He admitted that he really liked this girl and had gotten used to having her around every day gabbing and bickering, but it wasn’t enough to give up the chance to study abroad because of her, right?

However, if not because of her … then because of who?

“Shen Ron, you have to go abroad.” The old lady said with a serious face, “Even if it’s for Yang June, you have to go.”

Once again, Shen Ron was baffled.

What is Grandma talking about? He and Yang June are just brother and sister, and besides, Yang June is still so young, how can he include her in such love affairs that only grown-ups understand?

“Yang June is the daughter of the Yang family, and when she grows up, she will definitely marry a rich family to become a young grandmother. You don’t study well, you don’t enrich yourself, and you just waste your time in such a bumbling manner. When you grow up, even if I personally hold Shen’s family in front of you, you’ll be just as incapable of holding it. The woman your father married and her half-breed daughter are not easy to handle. Even if that little girl doesn’t make it, that woman is still so young and has plenty of opportunities to give you a dozen brothers and sisters. Will you be able to stand in Shen’s house? How can you propose marriage to the Yang family if you’ve been pushed out of the Shen family? How are you qualified to marry the Yang family’s precious daughter?”

Grow up and marry Yang June? That’s something Shen Ron has never thought of before!

He was surprised that the old lady could find such an excuse to persuade him to leave the country, but … her words struck another chord in his heart instantly, and made him face up to the question for the first time.

Let’s not think about whether he would Yang June, but just the thought of Yang June marrying someone else as a young grandmother, giggling and laughing around another man every day, his heart unconsciously rose with a touch of jealousy.

Is this the kind of love adults are playing with? But both he and June are still so young and far from being grown up …

“Think about it yourself and think about it in the long run.” The old lady said, “Even if you don’t go abroad, you’re going to start making up for your senior year in a few days, are you not even going to go to school?”

“Grandma, I’ll give it some thought.” Shen Ron said.

“Good.” Old Lady Shen nodded, “The formalities related to leaving the country are still being processed, so go back to school in a few days, and then leave as soon as the formalities are completed.”

“Hmm.”

As soon as Cheng Lydia returned from the vegetable market, she started looking all over the house for Shen Ron’s figure, calling out in exasperation as she did so, “Brother! Have you left, brother?”

The living room was empty inside, and she ran into Shen Ron’s bedroom, still empty.

Her heart sank, and she burst into instant tears, sobbing with sadness, “Brother is gone …”

Cheng Lena looked at her sad and tearful daughter and rolled her eyes helplessly, “How are you going to find your brother when you’re so distraught?”

Her daughter’s dependence on Young Master Shen had reached a level that was extremely worrying to her, and she was truly afraid that what she had been worrying about would happen and come true.

But again, she, the outsider, was helpless about this, after all, she had been advised and warned.From NôvelDrama.Org.

Cheng Lydia looked at Cheng Lena with wide, tearful eyes, and Cheng Lena pointed with her jaw in the direction of the garden, and Cheng Lydia immediately ran out.

Sure enough, Shen Ron is crouched in the corner of the garden!

Cheng Lydia was ecstatic and rushed up to hug Shen Ron with an excited face, “Brother, so you are here, I thought you had left …”

Shen Ron was planting roses at the base of the wall, his hands covered in mud, when he was hugged by Cheng Lydia in such a way that his body slumped back to sit on the grass.

The pain in his heart … was flooding him little by little.

“Brother won’t go.” He lifted his mud-caked hands and wrapped his wrists around her back, smiling extremely softly.

Cheng Lydia stepped back from his arms and surveyed him, “Didn’t the old lady come to pick you up? Why didn’t you go back with her?”

“Because I’m afraid you’ll look for me.”

For fear that she would be sad and cry because she couldn’t find him, like she had just done.

“That’s very kind of brother.” Cheng Lydia broke into a smile, surveying his mud-caked hands and the roses already planted at the base of the wall, “Didn’t brother say it was too hot to plant flowers?”

Shen Ron smiled dotingly and stroked her head with his wrist, “But my sister June said she hopes that this time next year, the yard will be filled with rosebuds planted by my brother himself, so I’m afraid that if I don’t plant them now, I won’t have the chance later.”

Whether he leaves the country or not, it’s only a matter of time before he leaves here.

Shen Ron’s thoughtless remark, however, caused the smile on Cheng Lydia’s face to fade back to reality.

Mom was right, despite all her reluctance, her brother would leave. She couldn’t let her brother give up his education and the chance to become strong and good just because she didn’t want to.

“June, I meant …” Shen Ron realized that he had said the wrong thing and tried to fix it but didn’t know how to fix it, so he was at a loss for words.

“June, don’t be angry, brother promise you won’t leave is all.” Shen Ron said in an emotional hurry.

Cheng Lydia shook her head and stared at him with a straight face, “Brother, you’d better go away and study abroad and learn lots and lots of things.”

“But it’s been years since we’ve been gone, and it’s going to be years before June sees her brother oh.”

“It’s okay, I’ll see you in many years then, brother is a man, he has to put his future first and become very strong and good to do so.” Cheng Lydia said with a strong sense of reluctance.

That’s what her mother said, and a fact she was reminded of time and time again.

Shen Ron promised her in all seriousness, “When we meet again, my brother will be very good and strong.”

“Well, sure oh.”

“Definitely.” This time it was Shen Ron himself who started by extending his little trailing finger and ticking her off as he looked at her, his gaze gradually softening, “Wait for me to come back, definitely.”

“When my brother comes back to teach me my homework?” Cheng Lydia asked in a serious manner.

Shen Ron shook his head, his long fingers gently stroking her pigtails, and his tone was as gentle as it had ever been, “Be my bride when I return.”

It was a thought that had never occurred to him before, and only today, after the old woman had mentioned it did he suddenly have it.

He had promised to protect her for the rest of his life, and instead of using his brotherhood to protect her, he would rather let be her patron saint for the rest of his life and keep her alone.

Cheng Lydia scowled at him in surprise, as if she hadn’t expected him to suddenly say something like that.

At just under eleven years old, she knew the word bride, but knew little about it.

As a child playing house with June and some of the kids, she had played someone else’s bride, and all she knew was that the bride was a very beautiful, happy person who had lived with the groom every day since then, eating and sleeping together, and having little babies together.

“What’s the matter? Don’t you want to?” Shen Ron actually tensed up a little when he saw her silence.

“Can I really be my brother’s bride?” Cheng Lydia asked.

Shen Ron nodded.

Cheng Lydia suddenly smiled excitedly, “Yeah! Great! I want to be Ron’s brother’s bride!”

She wants to be with Ron’s brother for life!

“Then let’s just say it.” Shen Ron said.

Cheng Lydia nodded her head vigorously.

Shen Ron hesitated for a moment before he said carefully, “Next week my brother is going to go to school first to make up for the fact that he’s moving from here.”

Cheng Lydia nodded, sadness hitting her eyes once again.

Shen Ron saw her sadness and was busy saying, “But brother will come over to see you often, and you can go to brother’s school to play.”
