Chapter 7 I Thought He Left

last update Last Updated: 2024-07-03 20:58:41
Looking at the tightly shut metal gate, Elizabeth Liang felt numb.

This house was left to her by her parents, but she has now become an unrelated outsider.

How could she have lost, over one night: her virginity, the caring people she always thought of as her family, her home, the company that her parents worked so hard to build, and her boyfriend whom she thought would be her last love...

And now, she only had a suitcase by her side.

See, they had already packed up everything that belonged to her.

She told them that she was going to take back the Liang Mansion and the Liang Company. But with what?

"Haha..." She couldn't help but laugh.

Looked at her now, shouldn't she worth laughing?

******

James Lu was waiting for the traffic light to turn green. He turned his head for a second and caught sight of something stuck between the gap in the passenger seat.

He took it out and saw that it was a library card from A University. It looks like she dropped it by accident when she was taking out money.

The name "Elizabeth Liang" was written in the name section.

Looking at the girl with a gentle and innocent smile on her face in the photo, James raised his eyebrows.

Should he return this library card?

Just thinking for two seconds, James indicates left and drove a u-turn.

James arrived before the Liang mansion gates and steadily parked his car, but he didn't even know why he came back just to return a library card.

Slightly irritated, he reached for a cigarette and was about to light it when he caught a glimpse of a figure squatting at the gates of the Liang mansion. He didn't really care, but then he suddenly realized that the person's clothes looked somewhat familiar. He looked up again.

It was really her!

He snapped the lighter shut, opened the door, and got out of the car, and headed straight toward the figure.

The closer he got to her, the more apparent it was that she seemed to be crying, with her whole body trembling.

Not until he approached her, did he realize she was laughing.

He frowned and glanced at the suitcase beside her. She...

"Miss Liang?"

Elizabeth, who was still laughing, paused and slowly raised her head. When she saw the person behind her, she was completely stunned.

Why was he here? Didn't he leave?

James looked at her small face looking up and couldn't help but frown. Her forehead was still bleeding, and her right cheek seemed to have been slapped. It was heavily swollen with a handprint on it.

"Are you alright?" He asked although it seemed obvious that she was not.

Elizabeth stood up and stared at him for a long time. Then she threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

James didn't like having too much bodily contact with women he didn't know. He wanted to push her away, but the woman in his arms whispered softly—

"I'm sorry. I just can't find a shoulder to lean on."

It was a simple sentence, but it sent a heavy shock through James's heart.

How vulnerable and helpless would she be to say that to a stranger whom she was wary of?

He slowly put down his raised hand.

Just regard this as compensation for not accepting Cheque.

Elizabeth desperately needed someone's embrace. The moment James Lu asked her if she was alright, she no longer cared who he was. As long as he would let her lean on him, just for a little while, she could feel a little better. She could feel like she hasn't lost everything in an instant.

Leaning into his arms, she finally couldn't hold it in anymore and began crying loudly.

James was quite perplexed, but seeing her cry so miserably, he decided to just put up with it.

After a long while, James finally felt that the trembling had calmed down, so he raised his hand to push Elizabeth away.

But Elizabeth still pulled his clothes tightly and spoke in a nasal voice, "Just a little longer, please?"

James 's hand paused, but he still pulled her away. "The wound on your forehead needs to be treated. I'll take you to the hospital, okay?"

    Elizabeth Liang eventually went to the hospital with James Lu, she didn't even know why she followed him. Perhaps she simply had nothing left to worry about anymore. The doctor was a woman in her forties. She looked at Elizabeth's forehead and swollen eyes, and then she looked at James in front of her. She asked Elizabeth, "He hit you?" Elizabeth opened her mouth but said nothing. She just shook her head. James's face twisted upon hearing this. "Do you think it's the appropriate time for this?" The doctor glanced at him with scornful eyes, "Hey, are you roaring at me? After hitting your girlfriend?" "No doctor, you misunderstood." "You..." James wanted to say something else, but his phone rang at the same time. When he took it out and saw the name on the screen, his expression changed. Then he said to Elizabeth, "I have to answer the phone." and walked out. "Is he having an affair outside? He doesn't answer the phone in front of you." The docto

    The floor was littered with cigarette butts. When the cigarette case was empty, James Lu finally took a deep breath. As soon as he walked out of the stairwell, he saw Elizabeth Liang with her wound bandaged and curled up in a ball, sitting on a hallway bench with her thin arms wrapped tightly around herself. People walked in and out of the hallway, but she just sat there quietly, like an abandoned child. He walked over and stood beside her. "Are you done?" Elizabeth looked up and saw that it was him. "Yeah." "Where are you going? Should I give you a ride?" She shook her head. She once had her uncle's family. But now, she had no one, not even a place to live. Elizabeth didn't mention on the way here why she was standing outside of the gate with her luggage. James only assumed that the marks on her body had angered her family. She didn't speak, but he couldn't be bothered to care at the moment. "Well then, Miss Liang, take care.

    A Maybach stopped in front of a house in the South Lake Villa District. James Lu parked the car and got out first. It only took a few long strides for him to arrive in front of the door. Elizabeth Liang dragged her suitcase and quickly followed. "Wear these for now." James found a pair of brand new men's slippers from the shoe cabinet, handed them to her, and turned to enter the living room. "Oh." She changed her shoes, followed him to the sofa, and saw him lying on it with his eyes closed. She didn't want to disturb him, but she was a little nervous because of the unfamiliar environment. "Mr. Lu... this is..." He opened his eyes and said, "My home. From now on, you will live here." She nodded and looked around the house. The interior design was modern and minimalistic, simple yet stately, which suits him well. "Right now I only have a part-timer. I will hire an attentive domestic in a few days. So, you'll just have to make do for now. Are ther

    Elizabeth Liang stood outside the door. "Is anyone there?" No answer. "I'm going in." It was only her first day here, but she couldn't help but worry about the loud noise. They say that curiosity killed the cat, but after thinking about it, she still decided to open the door. The light inside was very dim, she could only vaguely see a staircase leading down. There was a faint glow at the bottom of the stairs. Elizabeth slowly descended the stairs one step at a time. Halfway down, she became certain that this was a wine cellar. The deeper she went, the stronger the wine smell was. "Mr. Lu?" The moment Elizabeth reached the wine cellar, she saw James Lu leaning and sitting on a wine cabinet. He held a bottle of wine in one hand and was surrounded by broken pieces of wine bottles, while he laid his other hand on the shattered fragments. It was apparent that the noise just now was him knocking over the bottles. She took a few step

    Elizabeth Liang finished paying with James Lu's wallet and returned. As soon as she walked to the door, she heard a joking voice coming from inside— "You really are a miracle. How do people even end up in a hospital for banging someone? You amuse me, dude." As he said this, the man couldn't help but burst into laughter. Elizabeth recognized that it was Isaac Bai, the doctor who had just treated James's wound. She wasn't able to take a good look at him in her panicked state, but she vaguely recalled that he was wearing a white coat, tall, and was somewhat sage-like. Was he really the one laughing like a maniac? "Shut up!" This voice came from James. It sounded a little angry, but also a little embarrassed, adding to that his injury, he didn't sound very intimidating. "Okay, okay, okay, I'll stop now... Haha..." "Do you want to get your a*s beat, Isaac? Should I tell your old man that you've got a fake antique in your living room?" "Ahem... you'r

    "What?" "I'm thirsty!" "Well..." Elizabeth Liang looked at the cup in her hand and sighed. "Would you like some?" James Lu looked at the cup and curled his lips in disgust. "Not from a cup like that!" "......" Elizabeth felt bewildered. He wasn't nearly this bad in the day, at least not that crabby. Why was he suddenly throwing childish tantrums out of nowhere? "Do you want to drink it or not?" "What do you think?" Why the hell would she care?? Elizabeth took a few deep breaths to suppress the strong urge to splash the water onto his face.. Looking at her aggrieved and slightly cross expression, James humphed and closed his eyes in satisfaction. "Jimmy!" Elizabeth was still speechless when a middle-aged woman suddenly entered the ward. She rushed to the bed with a worried face. "Do you feel better?" James opened his eyes and looked at the woman with resignation. Then he couldn't help but quietly grind his

    Lydia Song came and went in a hurry, leaving only the two of them again in the VIP ward. Elizabeth Liang sat there, still not knowing how to react. That's it? That was her meeting his parent? Judging from James Lu's mother's mannerisms, it was obvious that she did not come from common ranks, but she was still cordial and lovely. Elizabeth could almost still feel the warmth of Lydia's hands on her cheeks. Lydia carried a faint sweet scent with her. Her delicate hands were very warm, and they reminded Elizabeth of her own mother when she touched her face. After so many years, she once again felt the love of a mother. "Hey! What are you thinking!" James waved his hand in front of her. "Nothing." She came to herself and shook her head. "What's wrong?" "I need to go to the toilet." Elizabeth looked at him confusedly. "Hm?" "Help me!" He gestured for her to come to him. Elizabeth frowned. "Mr. Lu, only your head is injured, you can

    As soon as Elizabeth Liang entered the door and saw the sofa, she collapsed onto it without even bothering to change her shoes. She went through more ups and downs today than a freaking movie. Staring at the wide floor-to-ceiling windows, she gloomily thought of James Lu's angry face. She sighed. How could he not be angry? Within one day, she had smashed his head, then pushed him again while he was injured... The fact of the matter was that she had asked for his help, so she shouldn't have exploded like that no matter how annoyed she was. After all, if she had irrevocably pissed him off, where could she possibly find another man like James Lu to rely on? She didn't know him well enough to figure out whether or not he would regret everything and refuse to marry her because of what she had done today. After giving it some thought, she shook her head and denied the idea. He probably wouldn't. Sure, James didn't come home with her, but he gav

    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
