But Lydia Song was still looking at her across the table!

Elizabeth Liang made up her mind and picked up a piece of food from a nearby dish. When she was about to put it into James Lu's bowl, James suddenly turned his head and ate the food from her chopsticks.

Not only was Elizabeth stunned, John Lu and Lydia also looked surprised.

After a long pause, the shock disappeared from Lydia's face as she said happily, "Your dad and I couldn't believe it when you said that you were getting married, but... now I see that you've really found a girl you love, I'm so happy for you!"

James raised his eyebrows. "Am I that untrustworthy? Well, do you believe me now?"

Blushing, Elizabeth stared blankly at her chopsticks. Did they just touch his lips?

If that's the case... then was that... an indirect kiss?

After dinner, everyone sat in the living room, and Lydia made a pot of her best floral fruit tea.

Elizabeth felt a little queasy as she sat on the sof

    "..." Elizabeth Liang stayed silent, but well—she was pretty happy. James Lu took her to meet his parents, which meant that he was still going to marry her. His parents agreed to their marriage, and he agreed to hold off the wedding. It was like all her worries had suddenly disappeared. Of course she was ecstatic! Elizabeth felt like she had basically suddenly won five million dollars. "I'm glad you're happy, but I don't do things for free." James was going to make sure he got something out of it! "What do you want me to do?" "Well..." He gently tapped on the car door, thought for a moment, and said, "Since I helped you, shouldn't you show your gratitude?" "Huh?" Elizabeth paused. "How?" James slammed the door shut, turned around and leaned against the car. He looked at her with a sly smile and said, "Come on, give me a kiss." He pointed to his face. "What..." Elizabeth was completely bewildered. Was James still in character? He was

    "I missed you so much Elizabeth!" Evelyn Wu said with a smile as she grabbed onto Elizabeth Liang, who had just come back to school, "Feels like it's been a lifetime since we last met! I'm like ten years older now!" Evelyn was one of Elizabeth's favorite classmates in A University, and a former roommate. She was a very petite and lovely girl. "Yeah, I've missed you too." Even though Elizabeth had gone through an unimaginably tumultuous week, at least she was finally back at school and seeing her only friend. That did lift her spirits up. Not counting the fact that it took her two hours to get here! "The dean is so freaking annoying, he said he was gonna make you write an apology letter for missing classes." Elizabeth smiled and said, "I'll just write it." "But seriously Elizabeth, what happened to you? You wouldn't tell me when I called you." Elizabeth lightly sighed and pretended to be unbothered. "Basically, I got dumped by Theodore and becam

    The next day, Elizabeth Liang got up at the break of dawn. Her patron needed breakfast. She spent two whole hours simmering a pot of porridge. James Lu came downstairs just as she placed two bowls of it on the table. He wore a dark purple suit over a pink dress shirt, and a burgundy tie around his neck. His hair was carefully combed and hairsprayed, with each hair perfectly in place. At first sight Elizabeth found his attire rather excessive, but when she took a second look, she thought that it actually fit his appearance quite well. The colors suited his light skin, it looked neither too frivolous nor outdated. Elizabeth's always thought of him as good-looking, but he looked especially handsome and dignified today. "Breakfast is ready." Elizabeth set down the chopsticks and yelled at James. James walked over and looked condescendingly at the table. Placed on it were two bowls of soft and fragrant porridge, two boiled eggs and a plate of mixed radish

    The weather became warmer as days went by. Elizabeth Liang still spent four hours a day going back and forth between school and South Lake Villa, and of course, she still made the ten dishes plus soup. Other than lecturing her about the virtue of frugality, James Lu barely talked to Elizabeth at all. After dinner, he either read the financial news or headed straight to the study to handle his business affairs. But on Friday, a change occurred. On that day, James returned home as usual, but he was taken aback when he opened the door. He had expected to eat dinner made by Elizabeth right away. However, not only was he not greeted by the light rumbling of the kitchen ventilator and the delicious smell of cooking, but Elizabeth was also nowhere to be seen! Why wasn't Elizabeth home? Puzzled, James looked at the time and saw that it was still early. He supposed that she might've went grocery shopping. But on second thought, she had always finished m

    "Elizabeth, is the guy in the radio talking to you?" Evelyn Wu looked over at Elizabeth Liang somewhat confusedly, but her voice was weak and her face was quite pale. Elizabeth, who didn't look so well either, was also bewildered. "Is he?" "I heard him calling your name." "Maybe you misheard him?" She was an orphan with no family, who would possibly be looking for her through the broadcast? And what, daddy's taking you home? "It's been years since my daddy last took me home..." "Maybe." Evelyn nodded. "God, Elizabeth, I'm so tired from pooping I feel like I'm dying." Elizabeth felt embarrassed. "I'm sorry Evelyn, it's all my fault." There were a lot of leftovers from yesterday, so she brought them all to school and ate them with Evelyn after re-heating. But during the afternoon lectures, both of their stomachs were unfortunately defeated by the leftovers. The diarrhea made them both convulse and vomit all over the place. They had no

    After the drip was finished, Elizabeth Liang came out and saw James Lu waiting at the other end of the corridor just as she had expected. His tall figure leaned against the wall, his arms were crossed and his face was pretty crabby. However, he still looked extremely attractive. "Your future husband gets hotter every time I look at him!" Evelyn Wu, who has been informed of Elizabeth's situation, blinked with heart eyes. "If I were you, I wouldn't give a damn about the Liang company or house or whatever!" "......" "Well, hurry over, your husband's waiting! I'm off!" Evelyn winked at her then ran away through the back door. Elizabeth shook her head and let out a chuckle. Still feeling weak, she walked towards James one step at a time while leaning against the wall. "I'm done. Let's go." James glanced at Elizabeth standing next to him and couldn't help but frown. "Can you walk?" "Yes." She just had to walk slower. He nodded a

    Fortunately, the incident was followed by a weekend. Elizabeth Liang had fully recovered after two days of rest. When she was cooking on Sunday, James Lu, who was also resting at home, made her lower the number to four dishes and a soup in the name of reducing waste. This was fantastic news for Elizabeth. This meant that she would be less tired and a little less poor. During the school's lunchtime on Monday, Evelyn Wu couldn't stop sighing as she looked at the food on her cafeteria plate. "What are you sighing for, Evelyn?" "I thought I would be eating nothing but gourmet food from now on, turns out I'm back at it again with the cafeteria crap." After having Elizabeth's home-made meals for days, Evelyn didn't get used to school lunch. Elizabeth smiled. "I prefer it this way. You have no idea how hard it was to cook so much every single day." "Well I'm glad you're having it easy." Evelyn sighed and shook her head. "It's just a pity for my tummy.

    "Why are you silent? Are you still mad at me?" James Lu saw Elizabeth Liang's expression and asked while driving. James didn't know why either, but he couldn't stop wondering if Elizabeth was feeling any better all through today's meeting. Then during lunch, he suddenly wondered if she would bring leftovers to school again without him knowing. He took a few mindless bites of his food and lost his appetite. So he picked up his coat and headed straight to A University. He had to know if she was eating properly. But to James's utter surprise, he saw Elizabeth walking out of the cafeteria with that god d*mn Theodore Chao the moment he arrived. "No." Elizabeth leaned back on her seat and answered softly. James forced her to leave school with him after he said what he said to Theodore. "That motherf*cker just won't learn, huh!" James snorted. "..." Recalling what Theodore said to her, Elizabeth wanted to ask James if he really stole the deal wi

    Time went by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, John was already sixty years old. He didn't like complicated things and didn't like to celebrate his birthday. However, Lydia insisted on holding a birthday party for him.  Considering that he liked quiet atmosphere, Lydia didn't celebrate his birthday in style. She only invited some close friends. Benjamin and Isaac naturally went there. Arvis was already five years old. He was much more lively than a few years ago, but he was not particularly noisy. Adele was pregnant again. The child was less than five months old, but Isaac was very nervous and followed her everywhere. He was so careful that James and Benjamin couldn't stand him anymore. That day, James teased him, "Say, Isaac, why are you so cautious? Adele is not a porcelain doll. If you want to please her, you don't have to be so affected." Isaac handed a piece of apple to Adele. After she finished eating, he replied, "I love my wife.

    John didn't expect that she would mention this matter on her own. He fell in love with her first and said that he wanted to get engaged to her, but she proposed to get married first. Was it even? However, he wasn't a strait-laced person. Besides, wasn't it a good thing that his beloved girl couldn't wait to marry him? If they got married, he could see her as soon as he got home from work, and she would accompany him for meals. If he worked at home, she would stay with him. When he woke up in the morning, he would see her sleeping face at once and say good morning to her. At night, they could sleep together. What a wonderful thing! They got married in early August. The wedding was very grand, and there were many guests. Almost everyone who had something to do with the Lu family and the Song family attended their wedding, and some even came from afar. The three floors in the most luxurious hotel in A City was filled to capacity. John would always

    "Happy birthday to you!" She sang the birthday song softly. Her voice was dulcet and soft, and it was very pleasant to the ear. The candlelight on the cake flickered as she moved, and the fruit on the cake gleamed in the candlelight. As Lydia approached John step by step, he felt that he was going crazy. She preferred to wear dresses, but all her dresses were lovely. Sometimes, she wore like a read lady. But at this time... She wore a long black lace dress that only reached her bottom. It was so flimsy that he could see her underwear... Her bra and pants were red and sexy, which only covered the most important parts of her body... At this time, John was obsessed with her, and he was hot all over. He felt that all the blood in his body was boiling, and his head seemed to be a little dizzy. "John..." Lydia came to him and looked at him shyly. "Today is your birthday." He looked at her bright and affectionate eyes and couldn't help but

    John's birthday was coming soon, and Lydia was very distressed, because she hadn't decided what to buy for him. It was in the dark ages of computing. There was a computer in her house, but the network was not very developed. Therefore, she only asked a few close friends about it. They told her that she could buy him tie, cuffs, and clothes, but she denied these ideas at once. John was born in a rich family. After he grew up, he became a very excellent businessman. He had received many expensive birthday gifts, let alone something like a tie. As his fiancee, she couldn't be perfunctory, could she? So, she went to the mall, but she didn't see anything she liked. It seemed that giving him a special and novel birthday gift was not easy. She didn't know how to make handwork or paint. She had learnt piano when she was young, but she gave up later. After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly felt that she was so stupid. Except for the fact that she co

    With the permission of Lydia's parents, John travel with her abroad for a few days. After coming back, he hired someone to teach her at home. Lydia had a feeling of freshness at the beginning. After all, she used to attend classes at school. At this time, she could learn knowledge at home. Moreover, the teachers were very careful and very patient. However, the next day, she was not willing to study like this, so she went to find John. "Why?" John was puzzled, "Is it because they can't teach their lessons well enough? If that's the case, I'll change new teachers for you tomorrow." "No!" She kept waving her hand, "They are very good teachers and they're patient, but..." She looked at him cautiously and thought twice before speaking, "They are just too patient, and they take good care of me as if I'm a child. I feel... a little stressful." John was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, "Is this the reason?" "Yeah." Lydia nodded, "But I am not a chil

    Lydia really didn't go to school anymore. Although all the misunderstandings had been clarified, she didn't want to go to school again. On the second day after she went through formalities, Nina came to her and asked for her forgiveness. At that time, John was there, but later he found an excuse and went out. Lydia looked at Nina who had suddenly become much more haggard and sighed in heart. Why did Nina have to provoke her back then? "I'm sorry." Nina said softly. "Oh." Hearing this, Nina immediately got unhappy and glared at her with hatred, "Lydia, are you very smug now?" She was apologizing to Lydia, but Lydia actually replied to her so indifferently. Lydia shrugged her shoulders, "Do you think I'm smug now?" "I'm apologizing to you!" "I heard it. Didn't I answer you as well?" "You..." Nina sneered, "Is that your answer?" "What do you expect?" Lydia was puzzled, "How do you want me to answer you? Should I thank you w

    Nina's voice came from the stereo around the playground. She had said a lot. There were so many people on the sports ground, but none of them spoke. They were all shocked and stunned. "As for what I said to Lydia, it was my prank. Actually, Lydia's fiance has nothing to do with me. I... just envied her for having such an excellent fiance and I was jealous. Therefore, I did that to her that day..." After she said this, the crowd, which had been quiet, suddenly burst into an uproar. "Oh my god! How could it be?" "I heard that she was very excited that day. She cried, knelt in front of Lydia and begged her. But she said it was a prank?" "She couldn't do that even if she wanted to prank on Lydia, could she? That is Lydia's fiance." "I don't think it's a prank. I was in the dormitory at that time and I saw it with my own eyes. Nina looked really sad. In my opinion, Lydia must have put pressure on Nina, so Nina has to do this." "Lydia's family

    As soon as Lydia entered the school, she walked with her head down, because she was afraid of meeting acquaintances. Besides, with John holding her hand, she did not have to worry that she would fall down. After what had happened yesterday, she... had become quite well-known in school. "Lydia, look up." His voice was very soft, but she was somewhat pressurized. She gave him a resentful look, "Do you even want to force me to raise my head?" He chuckled, "Didn't you listen to my words carefully just now?" "Yeah." Lydia snorted, "But I came in here, didn't I?" She said, "You said those words indeed, and I think it makes sense, but... John, it's hard for me to do it, okay? I know I'm not wrong, but I'm very worried. You are not me, so you won't understand my mood." John sighed lightly and didn't know what to say at the moment. Although he didn't talk much in ordinary times, he did things in a decisive manner. Perhaps, he really had no way to

    "John, you're here?" Nina ran into the house with great joy. Just now, she went out, but when she knew that he had come here, she rushed back, for fear that she would miss him. Fortunately, he had not left yet. Looking at John who was sitting in the living room, she was very happy, and her heart jumped very fast. John was very excellent, and she was infatuated with him. Although she had done such a thing, she didn't regret it at all. As long as she could be with him, she couldn't care about so much. That day... why on earth did he come here? Was it because Lydia couldn't stand it anymore and broke up with him? Had he found out how good she was?  John raised his head and took a look at her. His eyes were very bland. When she was about to walk over, John stood up. He arranged his suit and said to her father, "I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer as I said. I hope to hear it tomorrow." Her father's face darkened, but he didn't dare to lose
