Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

When Ming Lan and Wen Zac reached the Wen residence, the entire mansion was decorated nicely to welcome the new bride and the daughter-in-law of the family. The entire family and all the close relatives present there were so happy and showered her with lots of gifts.

As they sat in the living room, Mr. Wen handed over one file to Ming Lan, "This is for you."

Ming Lan hesitantly accepted it and everyone waited for her to open the file. She was gifted with a good number of shares and the charity foundation by Wen Family was gifted to her and she would be the one to handle it."

"Father this…I can't…"

"You are a member of the Wen family now. Everything the Wen family has belongs to you as well. Don't be hesitant," Mr. Wen assured.

She looked at Wen Zac who gave her an assuring nod to accept it.

"Thank you, father. I will make sure to do my best with the foundation work," she replied.

Mrs. Wen handed her over the finely crafted wooden box and said with a smile, "This belongs to Zac's grandmother who gifted it to me when I was married into this family. Now I am passing it on to you. She will love to see you wearing it."

"Thank you, mother."

Others gifted her as well and she was receiving so much love and affection from the entire family and the relatives. It was sudden that she didn't expect all this to be so nice though she was hesitant at the start- so much love and affection for her.

'This is how every new bride must feel,' she thought and looked at everyone who was talking among themselves, laughing and making the atmosphere so lively, 'This is such a lovely family.'

Liwei and other cousins were there as well who sat next to each other and were smiling teasingly at Wen Zac. He gave them a questioning look as to why they were smiling teasingly. Liwei pointed towards Ming Lan with her gaze and made a thumbs-up sign to her brother saying they looked so good together. Wen smiled lightly and stayed silent.

After getting the gifts from other family members, Ming Lan had to go to her room which obviously belongs to her husband. Wen Zac guided her way upstairs to their room while Ming Lan was hesitant as she would step into his bedroom, more precisely their room.

Wen Zac opened the door of his room and gestured to Ming Lan to enter. She did so and he followed her back. She observed the bedroom which was elegant with mostly white and beige color interior with dark wood furniture in contrast and the king-size bed in the center of one wall and couch and tea table one the side. A wall-size glass window made the room bright and fresh with sunlight.

"If you want to change something in the room…."

"Ah! No need. It's already so good," she replied.

As a person traveling in the wilderness, she was not fond of too much luxury but everything in the room was already perfect and up to her liking.

"Your things must have been arranged already. You can check in the wardrobe," he informed.

Ming Lan opened the wardrobe and everything she had packed in her bags were arranged in the wardrobe along with new things.

She looked at him, "Thank you."

"You should say that to my mother," he replied.

"Hmm, I will."

After dealing with Hans, Jiang Yuyan returned to the office by late noon. Lu Lijun got to know about her arrival and went to her office. He had instructed no one

was allowed to enter the President's office when he was there.

Just like before, Xiao Min and Noah were tense as they knew there was going to be a worldly fight between the two.

Lu Lijun entered the President's office where Jiang Yuyan was looking through some files. Seeing him, she instructed, "Have a seat."

Lu Lijun didn't sit, instead stood facing her as only her work table separated her, "Why did you do it?"

She gave him a questioning look. He was serious and she was calm as if nothing had happened.

"You know what I am asking," he said coldly.

"One always has to pay for their sins," she replied while looking at him as she put the file in her hand on the table and looked at him.

"And who are you to decide that?" he asked.

"I have a right to decide if someone hurts my family," she replied, still so calm.

"Family? Who from your family got hurt?" he asked, his cold words carried the sarcasm.

"They drugged you and….."

"You consider me your family?" he scoffed, "May I get it clear with what relation you call me your family?"

"You are my husband's younger brother," she replied, not being affected by the rage inside him.

"And that husband of yours is dead…."

"Lu Lijun…." she finally lost her calm/

"That relationship between us as a family ended the moment he was gone. So stop calling me your family and taking revenge on anyone who hurts me. You have no right, Mrs. Lu Qiang. The promises you made to your husband, don't use me to fulfill them. I am not accountable for anything you have promised or decided out of your love for him."

Jiang Yuyan could only stare at him as no words could come out. She had never expected him to talk like this especially when it came to his brother who he loved the most.

Lu Lijun continued, "About my brother and me, I am responsible for his and my relationship. You are nobody to decide anything for me. That business plan you have with the Choi family, don't expect me to lead it. Stop acting as if you are god and you will give me everything in hand. If you love Alex this much, then go and marry him. Stop dragging me between all this, showing everyone that you are doing it for me when you are clearly doing what will benefit your future husband."

Jiang Yuyan was calm, not reacting to what he had just said and heard him for the last time.

"I don't care what you do but from now on, don't concern yourself with me. Just leave my family and go away with that Alex. Make sure to never come back and show me your face." He left without waiting for her to say anything.

Leaning back in the chair, Jiang Yuyan only stared at the door that closed after Lu Lijun left. There was no such emotion in her eyes that would show what was in her mind. Her eyes looked like still water- clear on the surface but so many things lay at the bottom of that clear water.
