Chapter 208
Exiting the branded shoe store, Wang Boyce had a few more shopping bags in his hands.
And instead of helping him share a piece or two, Yang June is deliberately walking fast in leaving him in front.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Of course, with Wang Boyce’s large stature, ten or so shopping bags are not too much to lug around, and his pace remains graceful and easy.
Arriving at the parking lot in front of the shopping plaza, Wang Boyce shoved the shopping bags into the trunk in one piece, only to turn around and realize that Yang June was nowhere to be found.
He glanced around and frowned slightly when he didn’t see Yang June’s figure, and took out his cell phone to dial the number before he remembered that she didn’t even bring it out.
At this moment, a girl came over and handed the leaflet in her hand to him and said with a smile, “Sir, this is the new ice cream from our dessert shop, the taste is especially fragrant and pure, you can get one for free with the stop sheet.”
“No, thanks.” Wang Boyce politely but coldly pushed away the flyer she handed over.
The girl turned away sagely.
Wang Boyce suddenly thought of something and called out to her back, “Miss, wait a minute.”
“What is it?” The girl looked back with delight.
She was elated, not because Wang Boyce was suddenly willing to accept her flyer, of course, but … to be hit on by a handsome guy extra, something that would fall on any girl as a happy thing.
Wang Boyce scanned the sheet in her hand and asked, “Did you also just hand out a flyer to a tall, skinny girl in a beige and beige casual suit?”
“Yeah, she took the flyer to Ezra’s Face to get her ice cream.” The girl nodded, gesturing with her jaw to the sweet shop across the street.
Wang Boyce followed her gaze, and sure enough, he saw Yang June standing in a long line outside the dessert house across the street, holding a flyer.
His eyebrows furrowed again as he stepped across the street, dragging Yang June out of the line and glaring at her, “Ten dollars for ice-cream, do you have to? And you’re running around without saying a word.”
Waiting in such a long line just to get a ten dollar ice cream? When did she, Yang June, become so frugal?
Yang June was caught off guard when he yanked her out of line, and after being startled, she said, “Can’t you be a little more gentle?”
“You can have ice cream if you want, stand still and I’ll go get it for you.” Wang Boyce dumped her and headed inside the sweet shop.
Yang June, however, retreats inside the line, she prefers to eat for free.
Two minutes later, Wang Boyce walked out after buying her ice cream, still her favorite matcha flavor. Seeing Yang June back in line, her face sinks, “Let’s go back.”
“I’ll take the free one.” Yang June’s obvious gambling.
Why should she do everything he says? She doesn’t want to.
“How long are you going to wait for this?”
“You can go back yourself if you don’t want to wait.”
Wang Boyce was exasperated, and when Yang June was stubborn, she was also hard as a rock, which he knew well.
It infuriated him that she had the audacity to call his bluff like that after just giving her a little good face.
Come to think of it he did have an unusual day too, not only did he take her out to dinner and buy clothes, but now he was holding up an ice-cream begging her to eat it.
How could he change his mind and change his attitude towards her when he was clearly trying to get back at her and watch her suffer?
“I’ll go back on my own, then.” Wang Boyce shoved the snow pellets in her hand and headed across the road without looking back.
Yang June had gamely thought, “He can go back by himself, it’s not like she doesn’t know the way home anyway. But soon realized a problem, she is now penniless, no money and no mobile phone ah!
If Wang Boyce really left her behind, how would she get home? She couldn’t walk back. And with Wang Boyce’s personality now, he would definitely do something like leaving her alone.
With that in mind, she left the line without a care for face and hurried across the road.
Across the road, Wang Boyce was slowly pulling out of the parking lot when Yang June panicked and waved her hands calling out, “Brother … wait for me, brother …!”
It was a red light and she couldn’t cross the street, so she could only keep waving and shouting at him.
Just when she was so anxious she didn’t know what to do, out of the corner of her eye she saw a red car crashing in her direction. She instinctively took a step back to avoid it, but the car still rammed right into her body.
Yang June only felt her body spin, followed by her forehead slamming into the ground and a huge pain coming from her leg.
Too late to cry out in pain, she had fallen to the ground unconscious.
Across the road Wang Boyce froze for a full five seconds before he reacted by pushing the door and getting out of the car.
Before Wang Boyce arrived, the owner of the red car had rushed out of the car in a heartbeat, standing at Yang June’s side hand and foot, with tears in his eyes.
“June …” Wang Boyce rushed up and surveyed Yang June, who was lying on the ground, then picked her up off the ground and turned around, ignoring the cars coming and going on either side, and rushed towards the car in a rush.
There was a murmur from all around, “Isn’t that the big star Sasha?”
“Oh my god, Sasha hit someone, this is huge news.” Someone shouted as they pulled out their phone to record a picture.
A story this earth-shattering could make a fortune if you took it to a newspaper and sold it.
Sasha, as if she had just reacted, chased after Wang Boyce and said urgently, “Boyce, how is Ms. Yang? I didn’t mean to …”
Wang Boyce didn’t pay any attention to her and put Yang June in the car and drove as fast as he could towards the hospital.
After taking Yang June to the emergency room, Wang Boyce’s entire body is still shaking. He doesn’t know how badly Yang June is hurt, and he’s worried that she’ll leave him because of it.
It was his fault, he had gambled and left her behind, if he hadn’t been annoyed with her and crossed the road with her, how could this have happened?
If it wasn’t for him, Sasha wouldn’t have rammed the car into her
Yang June, who had survived countless disasters, would not have survived his life if he had left this world because of his negligence.
Cheng Lydia and Shen Ron, who received the news, also arrived at the first opportunity, and saw Wang Boyce standing outside the emergency room from afar, fidgeting.
Cheng Lydia grabbed Shen Ron’s hand and choked out, “Ron, I’m afraid …”
Shen Ron patted her hand soothingly, “Don’t be afraid, June will be fine.”
Calm Cheng Lydia before Shen Ron walked up and asked Wang Boyce, “How’s June?”
Wang Boyce just swept him along faintly and didn’t pay him any mind.
Seeing his silence, Cheng Lydia became even more anxious and rushed up to grab his arm and shake it, “Wang Boyce, say something, how is June? How are you taking care of her?”
“I don’t know how I took care of her.” Wang Boyce spat out bitterly, stepping back on his feet and dropping into the chair behind him.
Cheng Lydia was about to have a seizure when the emergency room door opened and the doctor came out.
“Doctor, my sister how is she?” Cheng Lydia turned to the doctor and asked after her urgently.
As Cheng Lydia asked the question, Wang Boyce didn’t even dare get up, didn’t dare look up at the doctor’s face, and kept his eyes fixed on the floor, scared and eager to hear the doctor’s answer.
The doctor swept the crowd and said with a faint smile, “Don’t panic, the injured man is not life threatening except for his left foot being crushed into a crushed fracture by the wheel and having a slight concussion, and will wake up soon.”
“Really!?” Cheng Lydia was ecstatic.
Shen Ron was also instantly relieved.
Wang Boyce, on the other hand, was in disbelief, as he had just seen Yang June being knocked down and run over by the wheels, and was unconscious at the time. How could it be that his life was not in danger? Is this true?
“I knew it, June will survive this time too!” Cheng Lydia finished hugging Shen Ron and then ran over to pat a still dumbfounded Wang Boyce with a smile, “Boyce, June has come back from the dead again, you have to be nice to her from now on.”
“I will.” Wang Boyce spat out softly.
As long as she was truly okay, as long as she was able to get better, he would never treat her like he did before, never get into any kind of revenge again.
When Yang June wakes up, Cheng Lydia is outside answering the phone, leaving Shen Ron alone in the ward.
She scanned around and didn’t see Wang Boyce in sight. Her heart sank momentarily in disappointment.
Where’s Wang Boyce? Is he so angry that he won’t even show up for a moment when she’s in the hospital?
“June, you’re awake.” Shen Ron asked with a light smile.
Yang June snapped back to her senses and surveyed him with a puzzled look on her face, “Brother-in-law, why are you here? Where is my sister?”
“Lydia she’s outside answering the phone and will be in in a minute.” Shen Ron asked softly, “June do you want some water?”
“No, thanks.” Yang June, who had just woken up and was focused on guessing why Wang Boyce wasn’t around, only then thought to care about her body.
She wrinkled her brow, and the party felt a pain in her head and … in her feet.
She remembered a red car coming at her, and she had clearly dodged it, but the car ended up knocking her down. It was then that she lost consciousness and didn’t know exactly where she had been injured.
“June, you’re awake.” Cheng Lydia walked in and saw Yang June wrinkling her brow wondering what was going on.
Yang June turned her head slyly and surveyed the two of them, “Sister, am I hurt badly? My leg hurts so much, is it going to be crippled?”
God, if she was crippled, she would have even less face to stand with Wang Boyce, crippled and disfigured, in front of people, Wang Boyce would definitely dislike her, right?
“Don’t you worry, the wound will heal soon.” Cheng Lydia held her hand and smiled reassuringly, “The doctor said you only have a minor concussion on your forehead and your foot will heal quickly despite the crushed fracture.”
“Really? It won’t be crippling?”
“Of course not.”
“That’s good.” Yang June smiled reassuringly.
After a pause, she surveyed the pair and asked, “Are you two the only ones here?”
“Boyce just left, said there was something going on at work.”
“Oh …” The small disappointment under Yang June’s heart surfaced again.
Is work more important than her in Wang Boyce’s eyes?
“Sis, brother-in-law, you guys go back too, I’ll just ask Aimee to come over and keep me company.”
“I’ll stay here with you.” Cheng Lydia turned to Shen Ron, “Ron, you go ahead to the office, I’ll just stay here with June.”
Shen Ron looked at Yang June and saw that she was no longer in any serious condition and it really wasn’t very convenient for him to stay here as a big man, so he nodded, “I’ll go to work first then, and I’ll see you after work, June.”
After Shen Ron left, Yang June took Cheng Lydia’s hand and said, “Sis, you go back to your own business too, I’ll be fine.”
“What do I have to be busy with, you forgot, I’m on wedding leave.” Cheng Lydia poured her a glass of plain water and handed it to her mouth with a straw.
Yang June took a drag and smiled, “Busy with the honeymoon, it’s going to be a lot of days.”
“That yeah, I’m going to wait until you’re better.”
“No!” As soon as Yang June heard her say that, she immediately got anxious, “Sis, you mustn’t miss the trip because of me, or I’ll be very self-conscious and unhappy.”
“We’re sisters, and I’m supposed to take care of you when you’re sick, so what’s there to blame yourself for.”
“Didn’t you just say that I just broke a bone and that I’ll be fine soon.”
“Then I’m going to stay here and take care of you too.”
“I said no.” Yang June was so anxious that tears were coming out of her eyes, “If you stay here, I’ll get out and go home.”
She wasn’t going to have her sister and brother-in-law, who had been so hard to re-puff, lose their honeymoon because of her.
Cheng Lydia saw how anxious she was and nodded her head in agreement, “Fine, fine, I’ll just stay, you take it easy.”
“Your honeymoon with your brother-in-law is not allowed to be cancelled.”
“Yes, Missy.”
Yang June finally smiled with satisfaction.
