"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
The whole process in the courthouse only took a few minutes, but Elizabeth Liang felt as if her whole world has changed. She was currently holding two small booklets with two big gilded words printed on the covers: marriage certificate. Was she... married? She went from being a homeless and disgraced heiress to being the wife of A City magnate James Lu. It all felt like a dream. James stood next to Elizabeth and watched as she stared at the marriage certificate in her hand. He grunted and said, "Too late to take it back now!" Elizabeth curled her lips. "I wasn't going to." "Well, you can't anyway!" James grabbed one of the booklets and flipped through it. Then he stuffed it back into her hand and glanced at her. "Mrs. Lu?" Elizabeth was not prepared for that "Mrs. Lu". "Huh?" "Shouldn't you give me a kiss as a wedding gift?" James said as he gave her a mischievous wink. "... Um..." Was it necessary? However, looking at him at
Lydia Song winked at Elizabeth Liang, and she immediately got the memo. James Lu felt like his blood was going to boil when he saw that they were really going to leave him behind. They really knew how to push his buttons! "Excuse me! Mrs. Song, who's going to make me dinner if you take her away?" "Just order takeout." Lydia didn't even turn her head. "Quick Elizabeth, change your shoes!" "You think I wanna eat takeout?" "Then why don't you make dinner yourself?" "Have you ever seen me in the kitchen in thirty whole years?" James was pissed. Who knew that getting a wife would be his downfall? "Well too bad then!" Lydia then acted worried and sighed. "I asked the driver to go home when I came here. We'll have to call a taxi then, okay Elizabeth?" "Yes, mom." Lydia's words immediately caught James's attention. "Hello, Mrs. Song, do you know who you are? Do you really think you should be taking taxis?" "What else am I suppos
"Number one," James Lu lightly tapped the armrest with one hand and said, "You're Mrs. Lu now, and you must always remember that, 'cause I have no interest in being cucked." "..." Elizabeth Liang nodded sullenly. "Got it." Then he added, "Keep a distance from other men at all times, okay?" "Mm." "What kind of attitude is that, Elizabeth?" "I answered you!" What kind of attitude? She had a great attitude! "What do you mean by 'mm'? Are you unhappy about it? Do you think I'm restricting your freedom?" "No." Elizabeth shook her head. When she saw the displeasure in his eyes, she immediately shook her head again with conviction. "No, really!" "Hmph!" James was a bit more satisfied this time. He crossed his legs and said, "Very well, now onto the second point." Elizabeth straightened her back and prepared to listen carefully. "The second point is..." James leisurely lit a cigarette. "The second point..." "Yeah, go ahead."
Elizabeth Liang tossed and turned on her bed but just couldn't fall asleep. Fiddling with the credit card that James Lu just gave her, she smiled faintly. What did he say just then? - Yes I am very rich, but my card is only for Mrs. Lu. He was arrogant and immature, but sometimes cute too! Elizabeth took out the brand new marriage certificate from her bedside table and was overwhelmed with emotion as she looked at it. She was really married to James Lu! She had planned to work hard in the Liang Company for a few years after graduation, and then enter marriage with Theodore Chao. But now... His embrace and the temperature of his hand from this afternoon still hadn't dissipated, it still felt warm, and made her feel happy inside when she thought of it. When he held her hand and said, "Mrs. Lu, let's go home." She could feel tears well up in her eyes, and it took everything she had to hold them back. Go home! At that moment
