Remarriage to a Rich Famliy

Two hours later, Cheng Lydia surveyed the vast leisure resort in front of her and was half in awe.

For as long as she could remember, she had never stepped into the city of An City, let alone known that there was such a huge seaside leisure resort in An City.

She knew from Aunt Helen that she had grown up in Anjo, but from the time she had just gotten off the plane to the special car that had driven all the way to this resort, she couldn’t find a single memory of it on the way.

It does seem that she has completely forgotten about her past.

The staff had arranged for Gu William to have the best sea view villa in the resort, which is surrounded by the sea on three sides and has a beautiful view, and is indeed a great place to relax.

There was a knock on the floor-to-ceiling glass window and Gu William stepped out onto the terrace to stand beside her, handing her a stack of brochures, “See what programs you’re interested in and we’ll go play together.”

Cheng Lydia glanced at the booklet in his hand and said lightly, “It’s up to you, I’m just along for the ride anyway.”

Gu William tossed the booklet on the table next to him and asked, “Do you ski?”

“No way.” Cheng Lydia shook her head.

“Can you ride a horse?”

“No.”

“Do you know how to play go-karts?”

“No.”

“…” Gu William was speechless.

Cheng Lydia, suddenly a little embarrassed, twisted her head with an apologetic look and said, “I’m sorry, I really don’t know how.”

“Then it’s better if I arrange it.” Gu William put his arms around his chest and said, “We’ll go riding later, it’s okay if you don’t know how, I can teach you.”

“Or teach me how to ski.” Cheng Lydia said busily.

Horseback riding? Wouldn’t that be like the TV show where the two of them hug and run around on a horse together?

Gu William looked at her, obviously reading her mind.

Without insisting, he continued, “We’ll go for seafood at noon, go across the island to watch the seabirds in the afternoon, and join the cruise party here in the evening, do you have a problem with that?”

“No.” Cheng Lydia shook her head.

“It’s decided then.” Gu William cupped her small face in his hands and gazed at her, “Excluding sleep, the day passes quickly and we must cherish every minute we have together, let’s go.”

Cheng Lydia rolled her eyes blankly as he dragged her outside the villa.

Cherish every minute? She hated that the day would go by in the blink of an eye, okay.

Although it’s not yet winter and it hasn’t snowed yet, the ski slopes near the resort are huge, with lots of slopes and good quality snow, and it’s very nice to look at the white capped area.

It doesn’t snow in LS City in the winter, so Cheng Lydia rarely sees snow, and the snow in front of her was certainly new and surprising to her.

With her body wrapped tightly in cotton clothes and her hands covered in large cotton gloves, Cheng Lydia squatted on the ground and grabbed a handful of snowflakes with her hands and rubbed them in her hands, saying to Gu William, who was also wrapped like a dumpling, “Why don’t you go play while I watch from here?”

Gu William came over and knelt at her feet, helped her lace up her snowshoes, skis, and hat, then pulled her up off the ground and said, “Ms Cheng, I traded hundreds of millions of dollars in projects for a day of your company and you can’t be happy? That’s a bummer, you know?”

“I … am just afraid of falling.” Cheng Lydia was a little apologetic.

She knew she was sorry for not cooperating with him like that, but she really couldn’t play the sport and she really couldn’t be happy about it. After all, she and Gu William like this … were, to put it bluntly, cheating, weren t they?

“The ground is covered in snow, the fall won’t hurt you.” Gu William slid his glasses onto her face and slipped his ski poles around her wrists again, gesturing to his feet, “Remember to reduce your pace at first, and only slowly increase it when you’re familiar with it, and balance your skis vertically on both sides, no crosses front or back … ”

Although Gu William spoke carefully, Cheng Lydia’s ears were blurred and her legs were shaking with fear.

“Relax your body, don’t be so tense.” Gu William held her gently by the waist.

“Fine, I’ll do it myself.” Cheng Lydia shifted uncomfortably to the side, trying to get as far away from him as possible.

With her hands dead on both poles, Cheng Lydia shifted her skis under her feet bit by bit, turning her head to Gu William so as not to slow him down and saying, “I’ll practice here by myself, you go ski yours on the piste.”

“I’m here with you.”

“So … are you getting too bored?”

“Skiing is always available, but spending time with you is not every anytime.” Gu William said in a half-truth, half-joke tone.

He wanted the time he could spend with her, not how and how much fun he could have.

His words were undoubtedly stressful to Cheng Lydia’s mind, and she didn’t like the subject, as it were, and turned back to her, feigning a look of serious skiing study.

Half an hour down the line, Cheng Lydia was able to step onto the piste and slide up slowly since she was able to do the same.

At the turn in the piste, however, she was so frightened by a small girl who had suddenly stopped in front of her that she screamed and looked about to crash into it when her body leaned to the side and she was brought into a wide embrace and they both fell to the ground.

Cheng Lydia thought she was going to fall hard, but to her surprise it didn’t hurt at all, and she lay in the snow with a long, stunned exhale.

Through the thick gloves, she could still feel her palm being held, and she tried to retract it back, but the other woman pulled tighter and had to give up.

“It’s a beautiful sunny day.” Gu William took off his glasses with his other hand and gazed at a clear sky.

“See, I told you I wasn’t cut out for an event that was too technical.” Cheng Lydia twisted her head and swept him off his feet.

One in a red cotton coat, his hat and fur collar were caked with snowflakes, crystal clear and beautiful.

“Can I ask you a question?” She asked hesitantly as she gazed at the crystalline snow on his furred collar.

“Ask away.” Gu William turned around and lay on his side to gaze at her.

“Did we know each other before? Why are you being so nice to me?” It was a question she’d always wanted to know.

Gu William smiled lightly, “Didn’t you already ask that night at the river.”

Did she? But she was drunk that night and couldn’t quite remember what she’d said to him.

“I was too drunk to remember that night.”

Gu William didn’t reply, just gazed at her with a smile.

Cheng Lydia added, “When Shen Ron saved me and helped me because I looked like his wife, what about you? And because of what?”

“Would you believe me if I said it was … I like you?”

“Don’t believe it.”

“That’s right.”

“How about …” Cheng Lydia thought about it and said, “Tell me what you like about me?”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“Can’t really say.”

“That’s right, Shen Ron says I’m stubborn, hot-tempered, and don’t know how to please men, such that I … paraphrase another of Shen Ron’s sayings, whoever marries me is unlucky.” Cheng Lydia smiled to herself.

Lim Toby, who loved her so much at first, ended up having a change of heart, so she definitely didn’t believe Gu William when he said he liked her.

“Trust me, Shen Ron will regret not cherishing you one day.”

This … she never expected, nor dared to expect.

“And what about you?” Cheng Lydia looked at him with a straight face and said, “Could you grant me a small request?”

“Tell me about it.”

“Starting tomorrow, find someone you truly love and cherish, let go of the ones you don’t love, and don’t let yourself regret it in the future.”

“Good.” He didn’t even think about it.

He agreed so readily that Cheng Lydia was rather foxed.

“See, you don’t believe me again.” Gu William chuckled and swung his body around to press against her.

Cheng Lydia instinctively rolled to one side, but Gu William had already caught her, and in a moment the two rolled in a ball on the snow, screaming and laughing at the same time.

Eventually, the two bodies were stopped in a small depression, and Cheng Lydia pushed and punched his body as she screamed in horror, “Gu William, will you behave yourself? I don’t want to be crippled by the fall!”

“You are the one who is not decent enough.” Gu William propped himself up slightly and looked down at her beneath him, “I’ve never left any woman untouched, they’ve all come to me of their own accord and stuck it to me, I was merely fulfilling their vanity. That includes your Chung Grace, so I hope this is the last time you ask me to leave her alone or I’ll eat you up in one bite.”

Chung Grace, her good sister Chung Grace.

Cheng Lydia felt heartbroken. How did the stylish and beautiful Chung Grace, the self-reliant Chung Grace, become such a glory-hungry and shameless woman as he said?

She remembered the full happiness on Chung Grace s face, the tenderness in … her tone whenever she mentioned the man.

“I’m curious, have you ever really liked someone?”

“There is.” Gu William spat out a word softly, gazing at her with a gradual gentleness, “Many years ago, I liked a girl, and I wanted to cherish her around for the rest of my life, but she chose another boy, disdained me, and even coldly warned me not to appear in her presence again during a verbal confrontation.”

“So … you took your revenge on her back on another woman?”

“No, I just made a mental vow to find a better woman than her, and I’ve been looking.”

“You …” Cheng Lydia pointed at herself amusedly, “You don’t think I’m the woman you’re looking for, do you?”

Gu William laughed along with him, losing his smile and falling his body to the side.

He couldn’t tell her yet that she was the girl.

It was a secret that had always been deep in his heart, a secret that almost no one knew except Cheng Lydia’s parents.

That year, she told him, quite unceremoniously, that he was late and that she had a beloved.

Shen Ron said this to him again the other day, that he was a month late and that Lydia was already his wife in name and in fact.

After eating seafood at a famous seafood restaurant at noon, the two boarded a yacht together that was headed to the opposite island.

Gu William pulled Cheng Lydia into the cockpit and drove the yacht there himself.

The sea breeze was a bit salty and fishy, but not offensive. Cheng Lydia turned her head to look at Gu William, who was steering the steering wheel steadily, and couldn’t help but feel that rich people are different, they can drive cars and boats.

“Do you know how to fly a plane?” She asked curiously.

Gu William gave her a sideways glance, “I can do anything Shen Ron can do.”

“So does Shen Ron know how to fly a plane?” She asked again.

“It seems you really do know very little about him.” Gu William swept her up once more.

This is something Cheng Lydia admits, she really knows very little about Shen Ron, she didn’t even know he had Yang June as a wife until after she got married.

The island across the street is not only beautiful, but also full of seabirds and a beautiful spring day.

The most surprising thing is that the seabirds here are not afraid of people, and some will even come forward to be close to humans.

Such a beautiful sight made Cheng Lydia forget her worries for a while and chase and play with the sea birds with open arms.

“Is there any food? Give them something to eat.” She turned her head to Gu William behind her and asked.

A prepared Gu William handed her the bag with bird food in it, and Cheng Lydia took it, opened the package and started to distribute it to the seabirds.

The seabirds were very obliging, and in no time they had snatched all the bird food out of her hands.

Cheng Lydia saw a beach in front of her and there were tourists collecting shells on the beach, as she ran over with a surprised look on her face, took off her shoes and joined the shell collecting.

By the time she realized she wasn’t alone on this trip, she turned around and found Gu William holding up his high phaser phone to take a picture of her.
