Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

The wound was above her eyebrow, and it seemed a bit of a struggle to apply the medicine herself, and she bit her lip lightly as she endured the pain.

Shen Ron came out of the bathroom and saw this strained look on her face, so he came over and took the swab out of her hand and said, “Let me help you.”

“Would you?” Cheng Lydia was skeptical of his abilities.

Shen Ron’s face sank slightly in mock displeasure, “Don’t always question me with this tone of doubt before I decide to do something, okay?”

“I’m just worried that you won’t.”

“How can you not know how to do something as simple as administering medicine?” Shen Ron gave her a sidelong glance, “Of course, it’s certainly a little less than you.”

“It’s rare that you’re willing to admit that you have something inferior to me.” Cheng Lydia chuckled, closing her eyes and waiting for him to medicate herself.

“Talk about me being bossy.” Shen Ron gently swabbed the anti-inflammatory-soaked cotton swab onto her wound.

The salve touched the open wound and hurt like it was on fire.

Cheng Lydia drew a backward breath and bit her lip to resist spitting out, “That’s pretty raw as it can be.”

“Bear with it, it’ll heal soon.” Shen Ron leaned in close to her and breathed into her wound, his breath soft and gentle, brushing against the wound actually not hurting as much.

He held her face in one hand as he gently medicated her.

Cheng Lydia closed her eyes, greedily enjoying the comfort.

She didn’t know how long it had been, but she suddenly felt a warm, soft touch on her lips.

She froze and opened her eyes, and Shen Ron s handsome face was close at hand, and he was kissing her …

What’s wrong with him? Why this sudden interest in being close to her so early in the morning?

Kissing for a while before Shen Ron released her, running his thumb gently over her lips and smiling, “Are you waiting for me to do that?”

Cheng Lydia blushed a little, so he had misunderstood.

But it was her own fault, the way she just tilted her little face slightly, her eyes closed in enjoyment must have looked like she was inviting him to kiss her, right?

“What? Not enough?” Shen Ron raised an eyebrow at her wickedly.

“I’m not … doing that.” Cheng Lydia blushed and looked away.

She looked as shy as if the two were in love for the first time, a first kiss, rather than a couple.

It was clear … that only last night they had lingered deeply, held each other tightly

Cheng Lydia looked at herself in the glasses and realized that Shen Ron had not only medicated her, but had even put gauze on her, and she hadn’t actually felt it herself at all. No wonder he’d mistakenly thought he was inviting him for a kiss.

“Don’t go to work if you’re so ugly posted.” Shen Ron said as he surveyed her in the mirror.

“No, I’ve been off for two days.”

“Aren’t you afraid the child’s family will besiege you again?” Shen Ron is worried about that.

Cheng Lydia, however, doesn’t think so; if they’re intent on getting at her, they’ll come out to get back at her just the same, even if she hides at home until next month and then goes out.

“Okay, I’ll walk you.” Shen Ron got up from his chair.

For several days in a row, Shen Ron was the one who transported Cheng Lydia to and from work. Everything was safe for the two days and the child’s family did not reappear in person.

When Shen Ron picked up Cheng Lydia from work at the hospital today, Cheng Lydia was in Cheng Lena’s hospital room getting her a massage and asked him to wait downstairs.

Shen Ron waited for a moment and stepped out of the carriage, heading upstairs to the VIP floor.

He went to see Yang June and left her ward after a brief stay in her room.

Cheng Lydia walked out of her mother’s hospital room with a hot water bottle and caught a glimpse of Shen Ron’s figure walking out of Yang June’s bedroom, her steps paused and she looked at him with a calm face.

“Is it ready?” Shen Ron asked as he stood in front of her.

“Not yet, but it’s getting close.” Cheng Lydia finished walking past him in the direction of the nurse’s desk.

She returned from fetching hot water, and seeing Shen Ron still standing at the door of her mother’s ward, said to him as she did, “Go ahead and wait downstairs, I’ll be ready in a minute.”

Cheng Lydia pushed open the door panel of the hospital room and walked in, backhanding the door with the intention of closing it, when Shen Ron held the door panel with one palm, staring at her and asking, “May I come in?”

It was the first time in their long marriage that Shen Ron had asked to go in and see her mother, something he had never done before. Apart from an unintentional meeting when they first met, Shen Ron had never met Cheng Lena either.

Although he and Cheng Lydia were only married by agreement, Cheng Lena was after all his mother-in-law, and he should have come to meet her long ago.

“Come on in.” Cheng Lydia stepped to the side, and Shen Ron stepped in.

He came to the end of Cheng Lena’s bed and took a closer look at Cheng Lena in her bed, her thin face, her eyes tightly closed, he couldn’t quite make out her face, but he had a vague sense of familiarity.

Shen Ron took a step forward, trying to get a better look, but couldn’t remember if he’d seen her before or where, except for a few hints of familiarity.

“Mom, Ron is here to see you.” Cheng Lydia smiled as she caressed her mother’s thin face, “This is the first time Ron has visited you, isn’t it touching?”

Cheng Lena slumbered quietly, naturally unable to answer her question.

Shen Ron owed Cheng Lena a slight bow, his face slightly apologetic, “Mom, I should have come to see you sooner.”

He had spent so little time in peace with Cheng Lydia these past few months, and so much had happened, that it had never occurred to him to come and see his mother-in-law.

Of course he knew it was inappropriate to do so, which is why he was apologetic.

“My mom must be happy to know you’re coming.” Cheng Lydia said.

“Let’s hope she’s really happy.” He took her shoulder and smiled lightly.

“Let’s go back.”

“Good.”

The two walked out of Cheng Lena’s ward together, and as they turned to leave, Shen Ron couldn’t help but cast his eyes towards Yang June’s ward on the other side of the corridor.

That gaze, it was clear that there was reluctance.

It wasn’t that Cheng Lydia didn’t feel it, she just didn’t say anything and didn’t know what to say. She walked in the direction of the elevator, and Shen Ron took a step to follow.

In the morning, Shen Ron was fixing his clothes in the dressing mirror while telling Cheng Lydia, “Why don’t you skip the office today and take a couple of days off.”

Cheng Lydia was pulling her hair back and said without looking back, “It’s okay, I’m bored being alone anyway.”

Shen Ron gave her a sideways glance, buttoned the last button and stepped over, smiling as he stuck the hairpin in her hair, “Are you blaming me for not having time for you?”

“Which there is.” Cheng Lydia glanced at him in the mirror.

It was Wednesday, Shen Ron’s work day, and she certainly didn’t dare expect him to drop work to spend time with her, not even on the weekend, ah.

“I’ve been busy with a project there in the west side of town lately, so I’ll make time for you when I’m done with it.” Shen Ron kissed the top of her head.

“Sure.” Cheng Lydia agreed casually.

The lot on the west side of town …

If Shen Ron insisted on building it into a playground, it would be a massive project for years, could she wait?

Three years later she and he wondered what they would be like, and if they were still together?

Because of the same road, Cheng Lydia did not drive to Shen, but took Shen Ron’s car to go with her.

As soon as they stepped into the company, Assistant Peng greeted them anxiously and said, “CEO Shen, there is something going on in the west side of the city, the residents there are looking for death and threatening to see you, do you think you should go over there.”

“Such a trivial matter has made you so anxious?” Shen Muran scowled at him with a lightly knitted brow.

Assistant Peng was momentarily speechless.

Is this just a little thing? Why would he think it’s an in thing? People are clamoring for suicide, how many suicides over demolition have come out in the news these days.

“Just see to it that you handle it yourself.” Shen Ron indifferently crossed over to him and walked briskly toward his office.

Assistant Peng raised his voice from the back and said, “But CEO Shen, they said they won’t go home until they see you.”

“Then let them all not return.”

“…”This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

The office door was slammed shut, leaving a helpless Assistant Peng behind.

Assistant Peng turned around and found Cheng Lydia still standing behind her, shrugging at her with a helpless look before leaving Shen Ron’s office door.

Anyone who knows CEO Shen’s personality will never bow to the forces of evil.

But Cheng Lydia didn’t know that, and after a slight hesitation she knocked on the door and walked in, saying to Shen Ron behind his desk, “Why don’t you go over there and check it out?”

“What? You’re still worried about them not coming home?”

“It’s so cold, and it looks like it’s going to rain.”

“Don’t worry, a few drops of rain will come down and they’ll head for home and hide faster than rabbits.” Shen Ron looked unconcerned.

“As far as I know, they’ve been standing guard there all day and night, just waiting for you to show up.”

“So what?”

“What else can I do? Go over and check it out, of course.” Cheng Lydia walked over and stared at him, “I’ll go over there with you.”

Shen Ron frowned, a slight look of displeasure on his face, “Ms Cheng, can’t you see I’m busy?”

“No amount of busyness is more important than human life.” Cheng Lydia said stubbornly.

However, Shen Ron had more principles of his own than she did, and looked at her askance with a serious face, “Secretary Cheng, have you written the minutes of the meeting in a moment, please?”

Cheng Lydia was speechless, she had just joined the company, right?

“I’ll get right on it.” She finished the sentence through gritted teeth and turned to walk out of Shen Ron’s office.

After a two-hour meeting in the morning, Cheng Lydia took note of the window when she came out of the conference room and found that it was indeed raining outside. It wasn’t raining much, but the feeling was extremely cold.

In the afternoon she learned from Assistant Peng that there was still a disturbance on the west side of town, and instead of simply drifting a few drops of rain and running home as Shen Ron thought, she had been crouching in the rain waiting for Shen Ron to show himself.
