Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 31



When the two returned to the ballroom, it was much less crowded, with Shen Ron and Gu William and Lim Toby, familiar faces, nowhere to be found.

Cheng Lydia thought to herself, and asked one of the waiters to tell her that the more respectable men had been invited to the VIP room for drinks.

Cheng Lydia was happy not to have to accompany the men around the stage, so she and Chung Grace each carried a small plate of snacks out of the terrace and around the spiral staircase to the garden on the first floor.

“I’m starving.” Chung Grace placed the pastry on the stone table and used her fork to deliver a bite of cheesecake to her mouth, then forked another and handed it to Cheng Lydia, “The cheese here is not bad, try a bite.”

Cheng Lydia took it with her mouth open without thinking, nodding, “It’s really good.”

“It’s been a while since I’ve had boiled fish at Phoenix Terrace, why don’t we go eat later?” Chung Grace said with a smirk.

“Not tonight, I have to work tomorrow.”

“Just your job at Shen’s, huh?”

“That’s work, too.”

“Bullshit, I think Old Lady Shen is clearly trying to promote your relationship with Ron by letting you in for a bit of fun.”

“No matter what the intention is, I can’t not go if the old lady opens her mouth.” Cheng Lydia certainly knew the old lady’s intention, Shen had so many capable people, there was no need for her, an amateur, to fill in for LILY.

Inside the VIP room on the second floor, Ye Max withdrew his gaze from inside the garden and scanned Shen Ron and Gu William and smiled, “When you two can be as affectionate as others who can share a snack together, then the world can be a lot clearer.”

The latter glanced at each other and smiled noncommittally.

Shen Ron lightly sipped the whiskey in his glass, the cold smile on the corner of his mouth deepened as he said, “Master Gu and I also have a deep bond, we went to the same primary and secondary school when we were young, we grew up and grabbed a woman together, and recently we are grabbing a piece of land together, even Cheng Lydia, a nasty woman… …” He paused, then said, “Life was a breeze and a buzz, Master Gu right.”

Gu William smiled lightly and raised a glass at him, “Here’s to us sharing the same interests.”

“Grace, how exactly do you and Gu William know each other.” Ching Tien asked as he raised his eyes and surveyed Chung Grace.

With a straw in her mouth, Chung Grace looked at her and hesitated to answer, as if she was considering how to answer the question.

And just when it was most difficult for her, a sudden female voice behind her came to her rescue at the right time.

“Look, children raised in poor families are different, shame on you for coming here.”

Cheng Lydia and Chung Grace turned back to see Lim Edith standing ten meters away from them on Feng Ann’s arm, surveying the half-eaten snacks in front of them with a contemptuous suspicion, “What hungry ghosts, you’ve disgraced yourselves as men.”

Chung Grace looked at the contempt in the two men’s eyes, and the little ball of fire in her heart was burning magnetically.

If Cheng Lydia hadn’t stopped her last time, she would have rushed to Feng San’er and beat her up to take revenge for Cheng Lydia. Today, she just ran into her sister, and it just so happened that the other party started it.

Chung Grace thrust the fork in her hand on top of the snack, got up, and rushed straight to the duo’s heels.

“What do you want?” Lim Edith glared at Chung Grace, her feet unconsciously backing up, but with a defiant stubbornness on her face, “I’m telling you, my sister-in-law is pregnant, my brother won’t let you off the hook if you touch her.”

“Your brother? I’m so scared oh.” Chung Grace made a fearful gesture and expression, then flung her hand and slapped Feng Ann’s face, “Bitchy mistress, I’m beating up pregnant women today!”

“Ah…!” Feng Ann didn’t expect Chung Grace to actually do it, and was hit with a low whimper, almost falling to the ground.

“Sister-in-law.” Lim Edith scrambled to hold her up, furious and turned her head to glare at Chung Grace, “How dare you? Little bitch! You’re tired of living, aren’t you?”

“What wouldn’t I dare to do to a mistress, I dare to continue to fight again …” Chung Grace said and was about to pounce on Feng Ann and tear her apart, Cheng Lydia was busy rushing up and pulling her back, saying in a hurry, “Grace, don’t you move her.”

“Why can’t I touch her? She’s carrying Lim Toby’s baby.” Chung Grace was even more furious when she didn’t expect even Cheng Lydia to let herself clean up the little vixen.

Cheng Lydia took a look at the terrified Feng Ann and said blandly, “You aborted her, maybe she’ll get pregnant again before you get out of jail. Have you forgotten whose girlfriend you are now? Have you forgotten that you’re going to be in a movie soon? This is a chance you’ve been looking forward to for years, you can’t lose everything because of a momentary impulse.”

She also hates Feng Ann, but Feng Ann is not the only one to blame for this matter, one slap cannot make a sound, if there is no cooperation from Lim Toby, no matter she has three heads and six arms, she may not threaten herself, right?

Although Cheng Lydia’s words were all true, Chung Grace still felt it was too cheap to just let them go and twisted her arms to struggle, “Whatever, just go in, I’ll help you avenge this husband taking today!”

“No, meant …” Cheng Lydia couldn’t pull and was thrown off at once.

“You want to make my sister-in-law miscarry? Don’t even think that my brother will remarry your family’s surname Cheng after the miscarriage, go ahead and dream your dreams!” Lim Edith rushed to grab Chung Grace’s arm before she could get close to Feng Ann, and Chung Grace did not show any weakness and fought back. In a moment, the two wrestled inside the garden.

Cheng Lydia was at a loss as to what to do as she could not be persuaded and could not be pulled away. Gradually, some people came out of the garden to watch the fun. Seeing that things were about to get out of hand, Cheng Lydia had to go up to them and give them a slap, saying, “That’s enough!”

The two who were wrestling together were stunned by her slap, and then turned their heads to glare at her.

“You dare to hit me? You’ve got some nerve after I didn’t whip you to death last time?” Lim Edith raised her hand in anger and slapped her back, but her wrist was held in mid-air by Cheng Lydia, and she could not move.

Cheng Lydia clasped her wrist with one hand and looked at her coldly, “Last time you could whip me because I was still the daughter-in-law of The Lim Family, but today I no longer have anything to do with Lim Toby, and the family law of The Lim Family is no longer in charge of me, so remember to behave Behave yourself.”

She squeezed on Lim Edith’s hand with increasing force, causing Lim Edith to frown in pain and grit his teeth as he said, “Let go of me …”

Cheng Lydia didn’t bother to continue to tangle with her, releasing her with a loose grip.

As soon as Lim Edith got free, she immediately grabbed Cheng Lydia’s dress straps and pulled them, saying coldly, “You’re a woman who seduces men everywhere! You like to take off so much, I’ll let you take off enough! Let all the men here see how slutty you look …!”

Cheng Lydia felt a chill on her body and looked down, only to find that her gown had slid down … in one piece.

She squealed in shame and pulled up the fabric that had been ripped away from her front to cover her chest and crouched down.

There was a commotion from all around, pointing and talking.

Cheng Lydia was already too ashamed to look up, on the off chance that Lim Edith wasn’t having enough of shouting to the crowd of onlookers, “Come and see, everyone, this is the woman who usually goes around seducing men, destroying other people’s homes and just tried to beat up pregnant women, everyone is watching.”

As she spoke, she also shielded Feng Ann, who had been frightened and flushed to the side, to her side.

“People are good, now you know that.” Chung Grace looked askance at Cheng Lydia, who was crumbling and crouching on the floor with a look of hatred as she straightened her hair and gown.

Chung Grace didn’t help her smash Lim Edith’s mouth, apart from being angry at Cheng Lydia for not fighting, mainly because she wanted to take this opportunity to make Cheng Lydia understand the viciousness of people’s hearts, hoping that she would understand that there are some people and some things that cannot be tolerated, just like people like Feng Ann and Lim Edith. Even though she knew it would be hard for Cheng Lydia to remember that with her character, she was still angry enough to go and force her to do so.

“What’s wrong? What’s happening?” Vice Mayor Lin, the event’s general director, walked up and scanned the cadre of women in the middle of the crowd, their clothes disheveled and their hair disheveled.

A man bent down and swept the women in the crowd, “Vice Mayor Lin, these women got into a fight somehow.”

Today was a good day, Vice Mayor Lin did not want to affect everyone’s enthusiasm because of this, after his face darkened he turned his head and swept a glance behind him at the male guests who had just come out of the VIP room along with him, “Who are all the female companions, lead them back individually.”

In order to avoid being left with a bad impression by Vice Mayor Lin, the men each held their female companions, thus showing that they were in no way related to the group of fighting women.

The scene was already famous except for Shen Ron, Gu William, Lim Toby and another svelte looking man. Apparently, the four women in the crowd were the ones they brought with them.

Crouched in the crowd, her entire back exposed to the air, Cheng Lydia was so ashamed and angry that she just wanted someone to come and take her away from this embarrassing place.

She saw Lim Toby come out of the crowd and lead Feng Ann back with a pained look on his face.

She saw the svelte man come out of the crowd and lead Lim Edith back with a gentle look on his face.

Every second felt like a century long, so long she wanted to bang her head against the wall.

Finally, Shen Ron, whom she had been waiting for, came out of the crowd, smiling and walking towards her like a savior. However, his feet turned as he approached her and turned to Chung Grace, taking Chung Grace’s small hand and smiling with compassion, “Honey, why are you fighting with such people, did you get hurt?”

What’s going on here? Chung Grace’s mouth is open, passively led by Shen Ron, dumbfounded and forgetting to react.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Cheng Lydia watched Shen Ron leave, a moment of shame, anger, anxiety and aggression, tears falling down her face.

Shen, Ron, you’re tough!

As she was about to get up and leave the crowd at the risk of being seen, she felt a warmth on her otherwise cold back as a black suit was placed over her, followed by her body being swept into the arms of a steel fortitude.

The wide suit wrapped around her entire upper body, and she no longer cared who the other person was, allowing them to lead her away from the crowd and out of the venue.

All the way into the carriage, Cheng Lydia remained too mortified to think properly, her hands clutching the black suit on her chest.

Inside the ballroom, Chung Grace snapped back and slapped Shen Ron’s arm while saying, “Shen Ron, what are you doing? Why did you drag me in?”

‘Shhhh’ Shen Ron put a finger to his lips and a light smile filled the room, “Your best friend’s husband is in trouble right now, shouldn’t you help out?”

Chung Grace gasped, “What about my husband? What about my husband?”

“Your husband has more experience dealing with this situation than I do.”

“You you … Lydia will be very upset when you do that.”

“But your husband is happy to.”

“What do you mean?”

“It means your husband has run off with my wife, silly!” Shen Ron winked his beautiful eyes at her and laughed as he set off.
