Master Hong's Lucky Bride Chapter 86 – Revitalizing the Cen Family   

Chapter 86: Revitalizing the Cen Family 

Like a lion who had lured her into his territory, he felt that she belonged to him now. He would let no one take her from him. “I'm afraid you still don't understand. I can do what I couldn't do When I was lying in bed.” 

Zhuang Hong's hoarse voice carried a hint of a smile but it was difficult to detect. Cen Shuang digested the information brought about by his words before her face turned red. “Why are you being like this?” 

He was clearly teasing her, right? Cen Shuang, who had always used violence to resolve things, was now trapped. The ground was their bed and the sky as their blanket. Their bodies overlapped on the rough cobblestone path and they hugged each other without fear of anyone seeing them. They were talking about the most intimate things. Those things stayed between a husband and his wife. 

The man's mouth was close to her ear, and she felt him breathe the next words. “What can I do to you?” 

Cen Shuang bit her lip. She felt her face gradually heat up what with Zhuang Hong breathing so close to her. Just as she felt that she was about to suffocate, his weight disappeared. Zhuang Hong lay down on the cobblestone. She looked up at the blue sky above her head. “Don't be afraid. I can't do anything to you in the garden in broad daylight.” 

Cen Shuang whispered, “What do you mean? I don't understand what you're saying.” 

Her gaze inadvertently caught sight of the smile on the man's lips, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat. ‘Cen Shuang, have you gone mad?' She realized that she was so flustered because of the man beside her. She must have been bewitched by his beauty or perhaps the older man's methods were superb. She was still young and could not withstand it. Although she warned herself repeatedly in her heart, she still could not help but turn her head. Her gaze secretly fell on the side of his face. 

The well-defined curve of his jaw, the high bridge of his nose, his deep-set eyes, and those alluring lips, which had just gently brushed hers a moment ago. His lips carried a familiar and wonderful taste. When Cen Shuang looked at Zhuang Hong, she thought about it again and it scared her so much that she hurriedly got up. She pretended to be disgusted and brushed off the dust on her clothes. Then, she said, “Wait here. I'll ask someone to come here and help you.” 

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhuang Hong saw Cen Shuang run off without turning back. Her footsteps were flustered, as if a wolf was chasing her. Zhuang Hong looked at the figure that had just departed. The smile hovering on the corner of his mouth gradually widened. “Weren't you quite bold when you secretly kissed me in the past?” 

When Cen Shuang received Cen Zhu's call, she did not put off her impending visit and immediately drove to Cen Zhu's newly rented small studio apartment. Although the conditions here could not be compared to the Cen and Lu families', it was a bustling area. Plus, it was safe and situated in a good environment. The community here was good as well. Cen Shuang had advised Cen Zhu to stay with her at the Zhuang family's house for a while, but Cen Zhu was very insistent. In the end, she had no choice. “Sister, you want to start a factory?” 

When Cen Shuang heard Cen Zhu's decision, she felt that things were a little complicated. She knew that although Cen Zhu had taken a portion of the Lu family's property, a lot of it was real estate. In addition, Lu Hongyang had used some underhanded methods, so the properties could not be turned into funds. They could only be put away. Cen Zhu did not have much she could do now, so she was reluctant to buy a house for herself. In order to start a factory, she would have to give up everything. She was willing to rent this small apartment. 

Cen Zhu was very calm about Cen Shuang's worries. “I have already paid the rent for this apartment for two years, so I don't have to worry about not having a place to live for the next two years.” 

Even if there was a way out, Cen Shuang could not be completely at ease. “Sis, it's too hard to run a factory. We can find an easier job.” 

Cen Zhu said firmly, “I believe that I can do what dad did in the past. I must revitalize the Cen family and help us get back our old lives.” 

After the divorce with Lu Hongyang, revitalizing the Cen family's legacy seemed to have become the most important thing in Cen Zhu's life. It also became her only driving force in life. 

Cen Shuang did not dare to say anything. She took out the bank card from her bag and stuffed it into Cen Zhu's hand. “There's three million here. It's the pocket money that Zhuang Hong just gave me.” 

Cen Zhu looked at Cen Shuang and whispered, “Shuang Shuang, you guys…” 

Cen Shuang explained, “Sister, don't misunderstand. He just woke up and he hasn't recovered yet. No matter what, I'm still the young madam of the Zhuang family now. They can't mistreat me.” 

Afraid that Cen Zhu would doubt her, Cen Shuang hurriedly said, “Don't worry. Don't worry about me not having any money. Zhuang Hong promised to give me an allowance every month. I'm living quite comfortably as a young madam.” 

The more Cen Shuang acted, the more indifferent she seemed. Cen Zhu's heart was filled with worry. “Shuang Shuang, when the factory improves, you can leave the Zhuang family. I know that Zhuang Hong has woken up and you won't have to live so hard in the future. However, I also know that marriage isn't that easy. Furthermore, you and Zhuang Hong didn't even know each other before this. He doesn't like you, and you don't like him. Your marriage is just a transaction.”
