Chapter 207
The next day Sasha woke up and was unable to express her remorse in actions or words, instead she seemed extremely calm.
Judy embraced her and kissed her bare back, “You drank too much last night for a man.”
Had she been drinking too much? She remembered she hadn’t had much to drink. But last night it was clearly her who had taken it upon herself to hug Judy and pin him down on the bed again.
Wang Boyce! It’s all your fault!
She clenched her red lips, gritting her teeth in anger.
“Sasha, are you okay?” Judy whispered in her ear, “Even though I was drunk last night too, I will be responsible for you.”
Sasha sat up suddenly from the bed and turned her back on him and said coldly, “Judy, last night was just a slip up and I want you to forget about it with me.”
“How is that possible?”
“How is that impossible?”
“I can’t get over it anyway.” Judy sat up after her and reached out her arms to embrace her, “Sasha, you know full well how I feel about you, I … do.”
“Of course I know how you feel about me.” Sasha interrupted him, staring sideways at him with a sneer, “You’ve been fantasizing about The Ho Family since the day you became my father’s assistant, don’t you think I can see that?”
Judy’s face instantly sank cold as she stared at her, “How can you say that about me?”
“Did I say something wrong?” Sasha shrugged off his arm.
Judy was furious: “Is Wang Boyce the only good person in your heart? Is he the only one worthy of your love? All the other men are not nice to you?”
“Exactly!”
“You-!” Judy said dumbly.
Sasha rolled out of bed, wrapped herself in a thin blanket and gazed at him with a straight face, “Judy, I’ll tell you again, I’m not marrying anyone but Wang Boyce, you don’t have to waste your time on me, please get out of here!”
“Wang Boyce he won’t marry you!” Judy snarled low in exasperation.
“It will be, one day!”
“How many days he’ll live is unknown.”
“What do you mean?”
Judy eased her tone and hesitated for another moment before saying, “Let me tell you the truth, Wang Boyce has been suffering from insomnia for the past few years and has been using medication to help him sleep every day, and just over a month ago, your father secretly changed his medication. In the coming days, Wang Boyce’s insomnia will get worse and worse, and he will also slowly lose his memory and finally die alive from insomnia.”
“What do you mean?” Sasha exclaimed, “How could my father …”
“And your father did it to get revenge on you.”
“I don’t need him to take revenge for me!” Sasha yelled in exasperation and bent down to pick up the clothes on the floor and pull them on, not caring if Judy was watching.
“Even if you stop it now it’s too late, he’s had it for over a month.” Judy said nonchalantly, “Also, if you go to Wang Boyce now and tell him the truth, you’ll only drag your father down with you, and that’s a big crime of murder for life!”
Sasha paused in her dressing, but didn’t stop.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Can’t go to Wang Boyce, she just goes to her father and confronts him about why he’s doing what he’s doing and tells him to get off his ass.
Looking at her with an anxious face, Judy gloated in her heart while jealous of Wang Boyce.
Competing with a dying man doesn’t scare him.
Last night, Wang Boyce came back from the party and took a shower and went to bed, but lying in bed he couldn’t sleep.
Naturally sensing his distress, Yang June got up and poured him a glass of plain water, and poured him a pill from inside the pill bottle.
If he had to rely on the pills to fall asleep, she naturally wouldn’t stop it.
Wang Boyce swept the pills out of her hand and didn’t take them, they were becoming less and less effective for him.
The doctor had told him that if he continued to take it like that, he would only become more and more dependent, and in the end the medicine would lose its effectiveness and never work a dime more.
Wang Boyce eventually took the pills Yang June handed him, then fell back to hide in bed.
Yang June gets back under the covers and she looks sideways at Wang Boyce, who has his back to her, and after a slight hesitation, reaches out her arms to wrap around his waist.
Wang Boyce’s body stiffened slightly, and he didn’t move to feel her embrace.
Or for the first time, she had offered to hug him.
Was it because the wedding reception today had given her feelings? So that she has begun to accept him with resignation?
But whatever the reason, it wouldn’t stop him from turning back to his mad urge to have her at the moment.
His blood had been activated by her, his heart had been softened by her, and he’d waited too long and too long for this moment.
He held her, kissed her deeply, loved her fiercely.
And to his amazement, Yang June cooperated by responding to him!
Waking up in the morning, Yang June surveyed Wang Boyce, who was sleeping soundly on his pillow.
Sharing the same bed, Wang Boyce’s quality of sleep was best known to her; he, who was usually always tossing and turning, had fallen asleep with her in his arms after getting off her last night.
He rarely slept so fast and so soundly.
It was so peaceful that … she didn t dare to move all night for fear of waking him up.
Wang Boyce slept until high noon, so she stayed with him until high noon.
Having been married to him for not too short a time, Yang June had gotten to know his sleep somewhat, and the days she argued with him less, he slept better.
She was beginning to suspect that a large part of his insomnia was coming from her.
During the morning, Yang June spent the time on her phone reading the manuscript in her inbox, not missing a beat.
Wang Boyce woke up to see her with her phone in her hand, looking at the boxed pieces, while his arm was still wrapped around her waist, neither of them with clothes on.
He leaned his handsome face inside the nook of her shoulder and closed his eyes to take a deep breath, his nostrils filled with her nice scent and he couldn’t help but be a little fascinated.
If time can stand still, let it stand still here …
Holding her in the same bed, smelling the scent that belonged to her, there was no hate, no noise, just the quiet beauty of the moment.
Yang June sensed his movement and gently turned her head to come into contact with his deep, gentle gaze.
It was a softness that had never been present when he had been with her in the last two months of the marriage.
“You’re awake.” She asked softly.
Wang Boyce did not say a word, but simply watched her quietly.
Embarrassed by his gaze, and thinking of the awkwardness of being bodiless to each other, Yang June braced herself to sit up from the bed, as it were.
Wang Boyce, however, tightened his arm across her waist the moment she got up, gathering it back into his arms and brushing his palm against her chest the next moment.
Yang June blushingly grabbed his hand and scanned the time on the wall and said, “It’s twelve o’clock, it’s almost dinner.”
“So what?” Wang Boyce didn’t give a shit about opening a meal, he just wanted to eat her first.
And Aimee came up at that moment and knocked on the door, asking in a whisper, “Young master, young lady, are you up? Lunch is ready.”
“Aimee, we’ll be right down.” Yang June responded awkwardly before starting to push and punch Wang Boyce’s palm, saying with emotion, “Aimee’s calling for dinner, hurry up and get up, Boyce … Brother … ”
The next moment, her mouth was kissed hard by him, and the rest of her words were gagged.
She was stunned for a moment, staring wide-eyed at the man in front of her who was filled with lust, and it seemed that he was not going to let go …
A bell later, Wang Boyce and Yang June washed and dressed and went downstairs one after the other.
Yang June went down just as Wang Boyce settled down at the table, and Leng Qing Shu, who had already settled down, wrapped his arms around his chest and scolded Yang June with a grim look on his face, “You’re only up now? Look what time it is, do you look like a girl?”
Yang June knew, of course, that it was one o’clock and that lunchtime was long past.
Knowing herself to be in the wrong, she didn’t dare to squeal, a small face turned red.
Not because of her mother-in-law’s scolding, but … she raised her eyes and stole a glance at Wang Boyce, the culprit who caused her to get up so late was actually half ashamed. As if it had nothing to do with him, right, and ate his lunch with ease and comfort.
Yang June walked over to sit down beside him and picked up her chopsticks, ready to eat.
Leng Qing Shu was still harping on his rebuke, “Do you think you’re still the spoiled princess? You’re already married, you have to behave like a married person. People who are wives get up early to make breakfast and wash clothes for their husbands, but you’re so good that you sleep until noon and even have to be rushed three and four times to eat.”
Yang June buried her head in her food, taking bites of white rice into her mouth.
Yang Carina swept her mother away in annoyance, “Mom, have you had enough, people’s big brothers are fine with it.”
Yang June was speechless, Wang Boyce he certainly had no problem with it.
Leng Qing Shu then turned her accusing gaze to Wang Boyce again and snapped, “It’s all because you’ve spoiled her, if she continues like this, she might ride over you in the future.”
Wang Boyce looked askance at Yang June, who had her head down and was eating white rice, and smiled blandly, “She won’t.”
As he spoke, he took her shoulder with one hand and gave her a slice of beef with chopsticks with the other, “Don’t just eat, eat more vegetables.”
Yang June looked at the bowl of beef and lost her appetite when she remembered how he had just and last night plundered her body and then when he embraced Sasha and danced last night.
“I’m full, you guys take your time.” She broke away from Wang Boyce’s hand and got up to leave her seat.
Wang Boyce scanned her white rice, which she had only taken a few bites of, and followed suit, rising from his chair.
“This stinky temper, you’re still upset after saying a few words, what the hell!” Leng Qing Shu glared at Yang June and lowered her head to eat.
“Mom-.” Yang Carina called out at length.
Leng Qing Shu then swept a cold eye over, “What? I can’t even talk about her?”
“Of course I can say that.”
“That’s not it.”
“Listen to me first.” Yang Carina scanned the outside of the restaurant, “You do know that brother’s insomnia is getting worse, right? You also know why you suffer from insomnia, right?”
“Of course I know it’s that bitch Yang June.”
“Although you keep calling people cheap, but brother just like her ah, brother so easy to burn easy to find her and marry her home. Can you not seep and people little two things, can’t you see that? Brother also looks like he just woke up, usually he gets up at six o’clock, today it is rare to sleep until the big noon, shouldn’t we feel happy for him? And the person who can make him sleep soundly is not He Ren or Sasha, it’s Yang June.”
Yang Carina paused and continued, “If you have something against Yang June, can you wait until the couple’s relationship stabilizes and when your brother’s insomnia gets better before you tune her out? I’m not speaking for Yang June, I just feel for my brother and want him to be well.”
When Leng Qing Shu heard Yang Carina say that, it felt as if there was a little bit of truth to it.
Even for the sake of her son, she should have put up with it for a while.
Let’s forget about this today and not bother with her.
As soon as Yang June returned to her bedroom, she turned back to survey Wang Boyce and said, “What are you doing following me?”
“Of course I’m responsible for you not eating.” Wang Boyce tackled the coat on the coat rack and put it on, his face flat, “Come on, let’s go out to eat.”
“I don’t want to eat.” Yang June gambled.
“But I want to eat.”
“You can go eat downstairs if you want.” Yang June turned around and headed inside.
“Is this you messing with me?” Wang Boyce wrenched her body around and trapped her in his arms to gaze at her, “What’s not deliberate seduction when you don’t get up and lie naked in the same bed with me when you’re obviously awake so early? I just satisfied you as you wished …”
“Wang Boyce!” Yang June interrupted him in anger and shame, “If I didn’t want to wake you up, I wouldn’t have bothered to stay in bed with you for a while, it’s obviously your fault, you didn’t say a word for me when your mother scolded me like that, but you even made it sound so bad. What do you mean, seducing on purpose? Do you think I like your body? I feel sick just thinking about the scene of you pressing on Sasha and He Ren and the girls.”
Wang Boyce blushed for a moment at her scolding.
Yang June expected him to be furious and freak out again and snap back at her, insult her, or even strangle her. But he didn’t, he just spat out coldly after his face had finished switching, “Then we’ll just hate and disgust each other.”
He buttoned up the coat on his body and turned his eyes to look at her askance, “Can we go now?”
Go? He’s still thinking about dinner? Can he still eat? Even if he can, she may not be able to eat!
Yang June stared at him breathlessly, could you not be so forceful?
Seeing her indifference, Wang Boyce, as it were, turned and walked to the closet, opening the large sliding room closet only to find that it contained very few clothes that belonged to her.
It was also true that when she was brought back by force by him, she didn’t even have a single traveling gift on her, and he hadn’t advocated buying clothes for her. What she was wearing were still the old clothes she used to leave behind at the Yang house.
It was late fall and the weather had started to turn cold, so she basically had no jacket suitable for wearing out.
Wang Boyce pulled a slightly thicker jacket from inside the closet and draped it over her before tugging her towards the stairs.
Yang June didn’t really want to go out, but couldn’t match his strength and was reluctantly dragged out of her bedroom and downstairs.
Leng Qing Shu and Yang Carina were still eating downstairs, and Yang June was worried that pulling and tugging like this would draw another scolding from Leng Qing Shu, so she gave up the struggle and let him move his palm from her wrist to her shoulder, wrapping his arm around her as she stepped down the spiral staircase.
“You guys are going out?” Leng Qing Shu asked as he happened to come out of the restaurant and surveyed the duo.
Wang Boyce threw her a nonchalant, “Go out to dinner.”
“Isn’t there one at home?”
“How can my princess swallow your nagging and scolding?”
Yang June slammed her elbow into Wang Boyce’s waist, causing him to grunt in pain.
Leng Qing Shu was just about to have a fit, but remembering what Yang Carina had just said, he had to swallow back the words that almost came out of his mouth and watched as the young couple walked out of the house.
The car drove slowly out of the Yang villa, Wang Boyce driving the car smoothly while Yang June sat quietly, not saying a word since the beginning.
As the car drove into the city, Yang June still didn’t say anything, and Wang Boyce gradually got a little pressed and turned his head to look at her, “Why don’t you say anything?”
“Weren’t you the one who told me not to talk?” Yang June didn’t look back, her gaze still on the view of the window fly moving backwards.
Wang Boyce was dumbfounded by her remark.
It was true that he had said that himself the other day, and he hadn’t thought that much about it when he said it then. It was also because what she had said then had been so unpleasant that all had ordered her to remain silent when he spoke in the future.
“What do you want to eat?” He asked instead.
“Whatever.” Yang June looked disinterested.
Wang Boyce thought about it as the car a about and headed for a nearby Western restaurant.
It’s an old Western restaurant with decent class and taste.
Wang Boyce Woods helped her order a black pepper steak, rare, and a matcha pudding.
When the pudding was brought up, Yang June’s eyes lit up slightly, it was her favorite matcha pudding, and she didn’t expect Wang Boyce to even know about it.
She lifted her head and came into contact with his deep, soft gaze.
“How do you know I like matcha pudding?” She asked.
“Random order.” He picked up his juice and took a sip, his gaze parting to the window.
Of course, Yang June wouldn’t be foolish enough to break him down, picking up a spoon and taking a shallow bite, but it still tasted like she remembered.
She hadn’t eaten matcha pudding since she became a vegetable in a car accident, and had even forgotten how it tasted. Today, when she paid for it again, she actually liked it as much as she always did.
Wang Boyce’s phone rings, he puts down his knife and fork and takes his phone out of his pocket, glancing at the number bouncing on the screen before handing it to Yang June, “It’s Shen Mansion calling.”
The phone call from Shen Mansion must have been for Yang June, because he had taken her out of the house by force.
The call was answered and it was indeed Cheng Lydia looking for Yang June. Cheng Lydia on the other end of the line said with a big smile, “So you two are really together, huh?”
“Is something wrong, Sis?” Yang June asked.
“It’s not a big deal, it’s just that Ron and I are planning to leave on Monday for our honeymoon …”
“Really? Where are you planning to go? For a few days?” Yang June was really happy for her.
“Going to Europe for about half a month, I suddenly remembered that you and Wang Boyce haven’t had a honeymoon yet. Why don’t the four of us go together? There’ll be a lot of people.”
“Going together?” Yang June was surprised and instinctively swept her head up at Wang Boyce and shook her head, “No, you guys go, Boyce and I are busy …”
Honeymoon? Her and Wang Boyce?
It’s good enough that the two don’t usually fight, and they’re on a honeymoon.
“Ugh, I knew you wouldn’t say yes.” Cheng Lydia instantly lost all interest and sighed alas, “Well then, I’m going with Ron.”
“Have fun.”
“Well, I won’t bother you guys, bye.”
Hanging up the call, Yang June handed the phone back to Wang Boyce before looking down and continuing to eat her pudding.
Wang Boyce stared up at her, extremely irritated by her silence.
It seemed like the call had a little something to do with him too, right? Couldn’t she just hang up the phone like a normal couple and then gossip to him about the meat of the conversation she’d just had?
But … he and she didn t seem to be an ordinary couple either, that he must admit.
Yang June felt his gaze and raised her eyes to meet his.
Wang Boyce put on a casual look and asked, “What did she say? Something about me?”
“It doesn’t matter much, it’s just that she and her brother-in-law decided to go on their honeymoon to Europe on Monday and asked if we wanted to go along.”
“It really doesn’t have much to do with me.” Wang Boyce nodded and continued eating his steak.
Taking his wife on a honeymoon with a love interest? He’s afraid he’ll come back from a big fight with Shen Ron in Europe when the honeymoon doesn’t work out.
Yang June looked at him, she knew for sure he wouldn’t go, but as far as saying it?
Forget it, don’t bother with him.
After lunch, the two returned to the car, and instead of driving home, Wang Boyce pulled up in front of a shopping mall downtown.
“What are you doing here?” Yang June surveyed the large shopping plaza outside the car window. Was he going shopping? If he was going to shop why didn’t he bring his little lovers along, instead bringing her, his watery wife?
“Shopping for clothes, of course.” Wang Boyce got out of the car first, and Yang June followed hesitantly.
Wang Boyce led her straight to a clothing brand store on the third floor, and just as she stepped inside, the clerk inside greeted her with a smile, “Mr. Wang, long time no see, why are you free to come here today?”
Yang June could faintly hear the clerks inside lowering their voices to murmur, “Mr. Wang has changed girlfriends again, so fast.”
“Yeah, I can’t believe he chose such a pale, dry woman instead of such a beautiful woman like Sasha… I don’t know what Mr. Wang was thinking.”
“Too much meat for veggies.”
“…”
Yang June listened to their chatter with a sad heart… I really can’t get rid of Sasha anywhere!
Looks like Wang Boyce is a regular here and hasn’t been known to buy clothes for other women at this overpriced brand store.
It wasn’t as if Wang Boyce hadn’t heard the clerks’ comments, but he ignored them and said to the order taker beside him, “Please help pick out a few more outfits that will fit her.”
When he finished, he turned and walked over to the couch in the middle of the store and settled down on it.
Yang June froze for a moment, and busily followed him over to sit down next to him and asked; “Why are you buying me clothes when you’re fine?”
“What else do you buy clothes for but to wear them?”
“I mean …”
“You don’t have to feel embarrassed, it’s your Yang family’s money that’s being spent anyway.”
Yang June is dumbfounded and surprised at the same time, so he still knows that The Yang Family is hers.
“Hurry up and pick it out.” Wang Boyce ordered.
After he said that, Yang June didn’t bother to be polite with him and got up to follow the clerk and started picking out clothes from the racks.
She was really short of clothes, she grew up pampered she did not pick up the clothes, in one breath picked up a dozen sets, without even trying them on let Wang Boyce buy the bill and swipe the card.
The clerks were so shocked by her that they thought, “This woman is not good looking, but she is really black!
Wang Boyce swiped it and handed her the secondary card in his hand, “Come out and buy whatever you’re missing later.”
Yang June scanned the secondary card, not reaching for it.
“What? Too little? It’s unlimited.”
Yang June thrust her hands into the crook of his arm and raised her little face with a smile, “When I want to buy something in the future, you’ll be responsible for coming out and swiping it for me.”
Hmph, what’s He Sha Sha? What’s a big star? She’s Wang Boyce’s real wife, for crying out loud!
Wang Boyce looked at the side of her smiling face and thought to himself that this woman had finally grown up and was jealous.
He didn’t say anything and took the secondary card back inside his wallet. Taking the five or six large paper bags handed to him by the clerk, he walked outside the store with Yang June in tow amidst a crowd of envious eyes.
Once outside the store, Yang June didn’t withdraw her hand from within the crook of Wang Boyce’s arm, still holding him affectionately.
The upscale shopping mall is filled with bright mirrors and everywhere you look, you can see Wang Boyce carrying piles of paper bags like a porter.
It was the first time she had experienced the scene of a woman shopping and a man swiping his card as a hard worker, and it was really an extremely good feeling.
Looking at him in the mirror, Yang June couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“What are you laughing at?” Wang Boyce gave her a sideways glance.
“I wonder if you often do this shopping with women and then hate that you can grow two extra hands to help them carry their booty.” Yang June said deliberately.
Wang Boyce shook his head, “No, they’re not as cruel as you are.”
“What do you mean?”
“They’ll heart me and then help share a piece or two.”
Yang June bit her lip, then quickened her pace towards the branded shoe store in front of her, shrugging off, “I have a few more pairs of shoes to buy.”
Wang Boyce smiled darkly and took a step to follow.
Buying shoes was also part of his plan for this trip out, so naturally he would not object, even reminding behind her, “Buy extra pairs, winter is coming.”
Yeah, winter is almost here and sooner or later it’s going to be time to buy.
After Yang June picked out a pair of the fall style she was going to wear right now and two more pairs of the winter style, she handed the two winter pairs to Wang Boyce and asked, “Which one do you think is pretty?”
Wang Boyce shot a glance and pointed to one of the red high-heeled leather shoes, “This one.”
“Knew you’d pick this one out.” Yang June handed the red leather shoes back to the clerk and told her to put them on the shelf, directly confusing the clerk.
Didn’t people say red looks good? What’s up with …?
“What do you mean?” Wang Boyce frowned, equally puzzled.
“Nothing, don’t want a red one.” Yang June said blandly.
The red fashionable leather shoes are only suitable for a stylish and beautiful woman like Sasha. Wang Boyce helped Sasha pick out her shoes with the same eye that he gave her, right?
