Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Chapter 57



Exiting the Western restaurant, Shen Ron reached out and took Cheng Lydia by the wrist, pulled her back, swept a glance at the Audi not far away and said, “Take my car home and tell Tom to come over and take it back.”

Cheng Lydia looked at the sincerity on his face and smiled, “Don’t bother, it’s not that far.”

“Then you take care of yourself.”

“Good.” Cheng Lydia nodded and headed for the Audi.

Shen Ron watched her get into her car before turning around and heading to the other side of the parking lot.

It was a very large surface parking lot, and the two cars were parked just east and west of each other. Cheng Lydia had just pulled her seat belt and was ready to start when there was a sudden knock on her window, a man in a security guard’s uniform.

Cheng Lydia rolled down her window and the man immediately said, “Miss, you have a tire leak on the back wheel of your car.”

Leaky tires? Cheng Lydia was stunned and glanced in the rearview mirror at the car’s rear wheels, which she couldn’t see clearly due to the low light. As it was, she pushed open the door and got out, heading for the rear of the car.

However, the tires were fine and there was no sign of a leak at all.

A bad feeling flashed through Cheng Lydia’s mind, and when she looked back, she realized that the security guard she had just seen was gone, and she rushed to the driver’s side to look down, and the bag she had put on the passenger seat had disappeared with it.

The first word that flashed into … her mind was that word.

She scanned around anxiously and found that the figure of the man just now was running furiously in the direction of the opposite side of the road. Without thinking, she chased after him, shouting in desperation, “Don’t run … and stop …!”

As she watched the thief dash across the road and fade into the night, Cheng Lydia was furious and angry, but she was a weak woman with high heels on her feet, so she couldn’t catch up with him.

Just as she crossed the road in her haste, a sharp brake and the sound of a car screeching harshly, blinding headlights causing her mind to go blank and her feet to freeze in the road.

Cheng Lydia thought she was dead this time, and her eyes widened in horror as she met the blinding white light and waited for death to come.

This feeling of dying was so familiar, so profound, as if it had been experienced before.

Once, she had been so cornered by a car shining blinding high beams and blaring brakes, forced to the brink of death before she could panic.

At the moment of a thousand eventualities, Cheng Lydia’s mind was in a state of confusion, and in the confusion, she saw a beautiful boy smiling at her in a blank white light, with a sincere voice: Wait for me to come back, you must wait.

The little girl asked with wide eyes, Waiting for you to come back and teach me my homework?

The beautiful boy touched her pigtails and shook his head: no, when I come back as my bride.

The little girl smiled with excitement: yes, yes, I want to be Brother Mu’s bride.

Two lines of tears slipped from the corners of her terrified eyes …

“Lydia, Lydia are you okay?” Shen Ron held her in one arm and patted her little face with the other.

Her expression was so frightened, her gaze so vacant, even the tears sliding down the corners of her eyes were so worrying.

Cheng Lydia was roused by Shen Ron, her eyes gradually coming into focus and gazing at the handsome face above her head, the same face … that had just appeared in her mind, smiling at her.

And that little girl with the big flashing eyes was the same one she had seen in Miko-san’s phone that day.

Cheng Lydia blinked her eyes for a moment, wondering why she was seeing that in the nick of time, like she hadn’t in five years!

Was it because Shen Ron had told her that story? Was it because she had just seen that picture the other day?

“Don’t be afraid, it’s all right now.” Shen Ron embraced her body painfully, wiping the tear stains from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips and stroking her hair soothingly.

“I’m actually okay?” Cheng Lydia asked in a mumbled voice.

Was she dreaming? That car had clearly come close to hitting her.

“It’s okay, but it’s close.” Shen Ron sighed softly and spoke with reproach, “What’s got you in such a hurry that you don’t even care about risking your life?”

He had just pulled up to the exit to wait for her when he unexpectedly heard her call, followed by the sight of her frantically chasing someone in the direction of the road. Kisei got out of the car in a panic and chased after her, and when he did, Cheng Lydia was just about to cross the road, and there were cars rushing by on the left.

If he hadn’t been so quick to drag her back to the curb, she would have probably been dead by now.

Even Shen Ron’s own heart palpitated when he thought of the frightening scene he had just witnessed.

“What’s wrong?” He asked.

Cheng Lydia took a deep breath to calm her racing heart a bit before saying, “My bag was taken.”

Shen Ron rolled his eyes breathlessly, “It’s just a bag, why are you so desperate?”

“I just got too excited, and now that I think about it I do regret it quite a bit.” Cheng Lydia smiled uncomfortably, “Thank you for saving me.”

“It’s your own life, forget it, just take my car back.” Shen Ron walked back and locked up the Audi and led her back to her car.

Sitting inside the carriage, Cheng Lydia reflected on the thrilling scene she had just witnessed and felt that she had indeed been lucky to have saved her life from the wheel once again.

Back at Shen Mansion, Cheng Lydia drank a cup of flower tea and pressed her shock before remembering that the bag she had been robbed of not only contained her cell phone and wallet, but also the test report that she had purposely gone to the testing department to retrieve.

Actually, there’s no point in asking for that report if you don’t just tell Shen Ron the truth about what he said.

But if you don’t tell him, sooner or later, Yang June will get killed.

Cheng Lydia held her flower tea in her hand, her gaze fixed on the direction of the bathroom, Shen Ron’s lanky figure looming overhead. What would be the right way to tell him? She couldn’t think of a good solution.

It wasn’t until the bathroom door opened and Shen Ron stepped out of it that she looked away and ducked her head to drink her tea.

“What’s wrong? Still thinking about what just happened?” Shen Ron asked as he tightened the straps of his robe and surveyed her.

“No.” Cheng Lydia got up from the couch and walked with him to the bed, saying hesitantly, “I want to talk to you about something.”

“What is it?”

“Are you asleep, young master?” There was a sudden knock at the door of the bedroom, and then Jenny’s voice.

As soon as he heard Jenny’s voice, Shen Ron immediately turned to open the door.

Outside the door, Jenny stole a glance at Cheng Lydia and said to Shen Ron instead, “It’s like this, Sister Gina just asked Doctor Huang to come over to check Ms. Yang’s health and found something bad.”

“What’s the situation?” Shen Ron’s expression flinched and he waited for Jenny to answer before heading towards Yang June’s bedroom with big, quick steps.

Looking at Shen Ron’s quickly departing back, a bad feeling struck Cheng Lydia’s heart as she turned her gaze to Jenny and asked, “What’s going on?”

Jenny sized her up in turn and asked in an unbelievable tone, “Young lady, did you really do it? It mustn’t have been right, you were so good to Ms. Yang.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Of course not.” Cheng Lydia’s expression straightened as she waved her off.

She took a step up that airy corridor, her steps flying as she already guessed a thing from the expression on Jenny’s face.

Sure enough, when she walked into Yang June’s bedroom, Gina was telling Shen Ron off for being evil, and when she saw her enter, she deliberately swept her with a frightened plus fearful gaze and continued, “… I also only recently felt that there was something wrong with Ms. Yang. I didn’t expect to find any toxins in Ms. Yang’s blood, but now Doctor Huang is here, so if you don’t understand anything, ask Doctor Huang.”

Cheng Lydia’s heart clenched and a cold sweat instantly descended.

She sees that Shen Ron is holding the very same test report that she was robbed of tonight by the robbers, and it turns out that tonight’s robbery was no coincidence, it was premeditated and set up by Ho Gina a long time ago.

But she still couldn’t believe that a simple-minded girl like Ho Gina, who had her emotions on her face, would be able to plan such an elaborate scheme if there wasn’t a powerful person behind it? And how could she know this kind of poison that even she as a doctor found strange?

She saw Shen Ron’s trembling with the test report, his face freezing little by little, eventually shooting two frost-like beams at her.

Cheng Lydia wasn’t fainthearted, instead she held her head high, puffed out her chest, and met his gaze without flinching.

She was naturally not fainthearted about what she hadn’t done.

She was not ashamed of her evil deeds and did not hesitate to do so, which was quite unexpected.

Too, how could she sit at home in peace after the way she had intimidated her and rebuked her that day? So many days had been enough time for her to prepare everything she needed to fight back against her.

She was the one who was too stupid to think the girl was too easy.
