Chapter 205
At noon Yang June did run to the supermarket near the office to buy gifts for her little nephew, and left the office in the afternoon after work.
As she walked out of the company building, she saw Wang Boyce’s Cayenne car parked at the curb, and a smiling He Ren was already striding towards the Cayenne car.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
To avoid embarrassment, she turned on her heels and headed for the nearby subway platform as if she hadn’t seen it.
Just halfway down the road, she suddenly heard a familiar horn honking behind her and turned back as she did.
The window eased down and Wang Boyce blandly pointed a jaw at the rear trunk, “Put your stuff in the trunk and get in.”
Yang June was stunned for a moment, sizing him up.
Didn’t he come to pick up He Ren? Hadn’t He Ren just walked towards him? Instead of opening the rear trunk directly, she walked to his side and poked her head inside the compartment, only to make sure there was no woman inside the compartment before putting her things into the trunk and pulling open the passenger door to sit inside.
“Why turn around and walk away when you see me?” Wang Boyce gave her a look askance.
“I thought you were here to pick up He Ren, and I already saw her getting ready to get into your car.” Yang June said sullenly.
Wang Boyce was silent, his lips pursed.
Yang June scowled at the side of his face and asked carefully, “You’re going to accompany me to The Shen Family? It doesn’t really have to be that much trouble.”
“I don’t want to go to all that trouble, but if you’re the only one there, people will think I’m cold-blooded and heartless.” Wang Boyce said.
Turns out it was because I was afraid of being talked about and thought …
Yang June swept him up and couldn’t help but feel a little lost inside.
Wang Boyce had already called The Shen Family before picking her up downstairs at Yang June’s office.
When Cheng Lydia heard that Yang June was coming to see her, she was so happy that she looked at the door from time to time, eager to see her right away.
Finally, Wang Boyce’s car pulled into The Shen Family mansion and Wang Boyce and Yang June appeared hand in hand in front of the crowd.
“June,” Cheng Lydia rushed up excitedly and hugged Yang June tightly, moved to tears, “June, you are finally willing to come to see me … ”
Yang June hugged her back, also red-eyed.
“Sister, I’m sorry …”
“You’re so annoying, so annoying!” Cheng Lydia yelled angrily, “You’re breaking all of our hearts, how could you be so stupid, why didn’t you come back to us?”
Yang June smiled bitterly, she didn’t know why she was being so stupid.
Shen Ron came up and patted Cheng Lydia’s arm with a smile, “Well, June is here for once, and you don’t invite people in for a cup of tea?”
“That’s right.” Yang June let go of Cheng Lydia and said with a big smile, “I’m still anxious to meet my little nephew, where’s the little one?”
Cheng Lydia broke into laughter as well, greeting Wang Boyce before pulling her inside, “Isaac is upstairs playing with his grandparents, I’ll have someone go up and get him down.”
“Good.” Yang June sat down next to Wang Boyce and surveyed the glowing Shen Ron and Cheng Lydia, deliberately scolding Shen Ron, “Brother-in-law, have you been putting off the wedding a little too long? Xiao Cong is already over two years old.”
“Well, I think it’s been a bit long too, but I blame Lydia, she’s the one who’s been putting it off.” Shen Ron smiled lightly as he held Cheng Lydia’s palm.
“It’s not too late for that.” Cheng Lydia smiled happily and then shot a glance at Wang Boyce and Yang June, “By the way, when are you two planning to have one? Gotta hurry, or else we’ll all have a generation gap with my Isaac.”
Yang June smiled shyly and twisted her head to give Wang Boyce a look.
Wang Boyce smiled, “We’ll do it as soon as we can.”
As soon as possible? Yang June stole a glance at him again.
He probably never wanted to have one with her, right? How could he want to have a child with her when he hated her so much?
Cheng Lydia surveyed the duo whose atmosphere was a bit off and asked, “June, why do you look like that? Is Wang Boyce treating you badly, so you don’t want to have a baby yet?”
“Of course not, Boyce he’s very nice to me.” Yang June took Wang Boyce’s arm and leaned into him smoothly.
Wang Boyce glanced down at her and smiled lightly along with her.
After meeting Mrs. Shen and Isaac, Yang June was dragged to the second floor bedroom by Cheng Lydia.
The two sat down together on the couch and Cheng Lydia ruffled her hair from her cheek with her hand, surveying the bruise on the corner of her forehead with a distressed look on her face, “It must have hurt a lot back then.”
She felt so guilty and heartbroken to think that she, as a sister, was not there for her when she was having the hardest time.
Yang June, however, smiled and shook her head, “I’ve forgotten what it was like at first, because I’m phenomenally well off.”
“Is it really nice, Wang Boyce, is he really nice to you?” Cheng Lydia didn’t believe it at all.
The last time she met Wang Boyce, she clearly felt that he hated Yang June with a passion, and although she understood the truth of love and hate, she was afraid that he would go off the deep end and hurt Yang June.
“Boyce hates me, but I believe his hatred will disappear one day, I can feel the change in him over these days of marriage.” Yang June held her hand, “Sister, since I married him, I will love him well, and I believe he will also be touched by my love one day and love me again.”
“I also believe it’s not hard at all to want him to fall in love with you.”
“So yeah, you don’t have to worry about me.” Yang June suddenly scowled at him and shifted the conversation is saying, “Enough about me, tell me about you, how are the wedding preparations going?”
“It’s completely ready.” Cheng Lydia smiled and pulled her up from the couch, “Come on, let’s show you my wedding dress and gown.”
The two sisters walked out of the bedroom together to the cloakroom next door, and as soon as they stepped in, Yang June was immediately drawn to the white wedding dress hanging on the hanger and exclaimed, “Wow, what a beautiful wedding dress.”
“It’s the work of a famous French designer, unique in the world.” Cheng Lydia stroked the folds on her wedding dress, “Actually, I think as long as I marry the man I love, it’s not a big deal what kind of wedding dress I wear, but Ron he doesn’t think so and had to pay a high price to have this wedding dress ordered from France.”
“Because my sister is unique in my brother-in-law’s heart, so of course my brother-in-law wants her wedding dress to be unique as well.”
“That’s what he said.”
Yang June nodded with a look of anticipation, “I’d love to see my sister in it soon.”
“We’ll see it this weekend.”
“These two gowns are beautiful, too.” Yang June sized up another two gowns, one long and one short, next to her.
Cheng Lydia took the gown off the hanger and compared it on her body, “This one is for the toast, this one is for the dance, also from a French celebrity, and this one is for serving tea to the family elders.” She took down another red cheongsam outfit from the hanger.
Four outfits in one wedding is enviable to look at.
Yang June suddenly remembered her wedding to Wang Boyce, tiny venue, simple wedding, two hundred dollars to rent a wedding dress and a small dress.
While Cheng Lydia is right, it doesn’t matter what you wear as long as you are marrying the man you love. But what you wear on the wedding day and how well the wedding is done is the importance and heart of the man to the woman.
Wang Boyce stole Lim Keith’s wedding back in the day and simply went through the motions.
Actually, come to think of it, with the way Wang Boyce is treating her now, he wouldn’t even say one more word to her, let alone the wedding.
Cheng Lydia took out a few headpieces from inside the cabinet and turned around to see Yang June with a sad face. She was stunned, the tiara in her hand frozen in mid-air.
“June …” Cheng Lydia called out.
“Hmm?” Yang June snapped back to her senses, the expression on her face returning to normal as she looked over at Cheng Lydia.
“I’m … sorry.” Cheng Lydia scowled at her for a long moment before asking in a whisper, “I was so happy I forgot to take your feelings into account, you … haven’t forgotten about Ron, have you?”
How could she have forgotten? Although Yang June chose to quit, she always had Shen Ron’s in her heart. How can she disregard her feelings and keep on basking in her happiness in front of her?
“Sis, what are you talking about? How could I possibly still paw at my brother-in-law?” Yang June laughed and raised her hand to knock her on the forehead, “Thanks to you being my sister, you don’t know me so well.”
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true, I haven’t had that in mind for my brother-in-law for a long time. Not before, and even less since marrying Wang Boyce.”
“Then you just …”
“I just suddenly remembered my wedding with Wang Boyce, it’s not even close to what I dreamed of.” Yang June finished and then turned to smile, “But it’s okay, a wedding, it’s just a formality, in the end, we still have to return to living our lives. Besides, with the way I look now, even if I wear a beautiful wedding dress on my body and a beautiful hairpiece on my head, it will still cause people to talk and laugh.”
“Having a big and romantic wedding is the dream of every woman’s heart, I can understand how you feel.” Cheng Lydia reached out her arms to hug her and stroked her hair soothingly, “June, as long as Wang Boyce loves you, you are the most beautiful and no one has the right to make fun of you.”
“Boyce, do you think so?” Cheng Lydia asked as she suddenly raised her head and looked out the door at Wang Boyce.
“Sure.” Wang Boyce smiled lightly and stepped in with Shen Ron.
Yang June wondered when Wang Boyce had come up and looked at the false smirk on his face, and she instantly felt embarrassed.
Wang Boyce has feelings for her that only she and Wang Boyce themselves know… Love her? I wonder when this dream will come true?
As they prepared to leave from Shen Mansion, Yang June hugged Isaac and the old lady said with a big smile, “June, look how much Isaac likes you, remember to come often in the future.”
“I’ll definitely come back more often, old lady.” Yang June stroked Isaac’s little head, “And next time Auntie buy Isaac a toy.”
Isaac looked ecstatic, “Really? Auntie is buying Isaac a very, very big plane?”
“And big, big cranking air cars.”
“Thank you Auntie, Auntie is so good!” Isaac excitedly pounced on her face and kissed her, Yang June giggled at the kiss.
“June said she grew up loving kids, didn’t she?” Cheng Lydia twisted her head to ask Wang Boyce, who had stepped aside.
Wang Boyce should know June better than she ever did with her memory loss.
Wang Boyce nodded and gave a shallow ‘hmm’.
Yes, Yang June has never been a fan of kids, which is why she was so happy to meet Isaac and looked like she wanted to take him home and raise him for a few days.
After exiting The Shen Family, Wang Boyce drove his car while Yang June said with the usual little girl’s emotion, “It turns out that my sister went to An City alone for the past few years and didn’t live with my brother-in-law, but now she’s back and the lovers are finally together. Looking at their family happy and bustling, it feels like everything I did back then was worth it.”
With a ‘squeal’, Wang Boyce braked the car to the side of the road with one foot.
Yang June was taken aback and turned her head, only to find his face somber and frightened.
What’s wrong? What’s with the sudden change of face? Did she say something wrong? Or did she just do something wrong at The Shen Family?
“Brother, what’s wrong with you?” She asked cautiously as she gazed at the somber side of his face.
Wang Boyce twisted his head and stared at her word for word, “Please shut up while I’m driving.”
So it was too noisy for her, that’s okay, she just won’t gossip with him in the future.
“Fine, I won’t say a word while you’re driving from now on.” Yang June said, a faint hint of gambling seeping into her tone.
Turns out he hated her to this extent.
The car restarted and she really stopped talking.
The carriage became unusually quiet, so quiet that it distracted Wang Boyce.
Yang June will probably never know why Wang Boyce hates her so much and why she doesn’t want to hear her say the things she just said.
Wang Boyce also hates her more than anyone else for making that decision in the first place, because he’s the one who cares about her the most in the world.
