Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

The news of Lu Qiang's death had been spread everywhere. The one person was the happiest one and he was in the mood of the celebration.

Sitting in his study room in the Xi residence, Xi Cheng instructed his assistant who was there to give all the updates of the situation to his boss.

"Get me a drink," Xi Cheng ordered and the assistant nodded.

Picking up his cellphone from the table, Xi Cheng made a call. "Finally, we got success. Mr. Victor."

"It was not what I wanted," the cold voice came out.

"I know, but no one can predict the intensity of the situation and things turn into something else," Xi Cheng countered.

"I didn't want him to die. Dying is the easy way out. I wanted him to be half dead so that the person can feel its pain." Victor spoke again.

"I am sorry but things….."

"You changed the plan on your own when clearly it was not what I asked you to do," the man interrupted Xi Cheng.

"I tried to make it more effective as there were chances that it might fail and later we had to bear the consequences. If Lu Qiang had made it alive out from it, then it would not only be bad for me but also, you would have to take your steps back from the Chinese market and your business wouldn't be able to make it in China ever."

Though Xi Cheng explained his side, the man was not ready to listen. "You broke the rule by deciding on your own, and it would be difficult to trust you in the future. There won't be any business between you and me."

Saying, the man cut the call leaving Xi Cheng speechless but Xi Cheng was not sad.

"Never mind Mr. Victor. As the thorn in my way is out now, we can meet in the future soon and at that time, you will come to me on your own. Also, thank you for helping me to get him out of my life and this world."

A burst of loud laughter could be heard in the study room, which stopped when the assistant brought the drinks for him.

Taking the sip of drink from the glass and gulping it down while savoring its bitterness thoroughly, Xi Cheng spoke, "Rest in peace, President Lu."

In the Ming Mansion…

When they got the news, it shocked everyone. Elder Ming wanted to go and see his friend and his granddaughter as soon as possible. They had to wait as the hospital was dealing with the sudden security problem and the media people. They could finally make it in the evening.

Excusing herself, Zhang Jei called her brother when she was still in the home. "Did you see the news?"

"Yes sister," Zhang Wei replied.

"Just tell me if you and my son are involved in it or not," Zhang Jei ordered in a cold voice.

"I already told you, sister, I don't have any intention to harm him and I am as much as surprised as you," Zhang Wei countered.

"Where is Ming Rusheng? Is he involved in it?" she asked, ignoring his explanation.

"He is sleeping in his room and I don't think he is involved in it or he would be awake till now to get the news."

"I don't know if you are telling the truth or not, but if both of you are involved, I will personally put you both behind the bars. Mark my words." Saying Zhang Jei cut the call.

Ming Rusheng woke up and the moment he checked his cellphone, it was filled with so many missed calls and the messages. He was drunk the previous night, so he woke up late.

Checking the messages on the mobile, he went to the living room where his uncle just hung up the call after talking to Zhang Jei.

"Uncle, what's going on? Is someone playing a prank or what?" asked Ming Rusheng while going through the news in the cell phone and trying to clear his vision and shake his head again and again, which was hurting with a hangover.

"It's the truth, Ming Rusheng," Zhang Wei replied and it surprised Ming Rusheng.

"I think I am still too drunk that I am seeing and hearing things," Ming Rusheng said as he pressed his temples but ignoring him, Zhang Wei asked, "Are you involved in this, Ming Rushen?"

Chucking Ming Rusheng spoke, "Me? If I was, then do you think I would sleep like this and hear the news from others? Wouldn't I be celebrating the victory?"

Zhang Wei gave him a cold look, so Ming Rushen spoke, "I wish him to disappear, but I didn't think to kill him. It's up to you whether you want to trust me or not."

"Did you meet Xi Cheng behind my back?" Zhang Wei asked as he didn't trust Ming Rusheng.

"Do I need to tell you everything, uncle? I am not a kid now. Anyway, it's sad that he died as I wished to give him tough competition but seems like there is nothing to compete now."

"I know you met him," Zhang Wei declared.

"If you already know it, then why ask me? Didn't your spies tell you everything?" Saying Ming Rusheng went back to his room, leaving Zhang Jei with so many questions.

On the other hand, San Zemin was busy investing the things from his side. He knew the truth, but he wanted to gather the proof which could put the culprit behind the bars. He knew it would not be easy as there were powerful people behind it who had the ability to twist and turn the things.

Even after he gathered all the proof, he needed someone powerful from the Lu family who could deal with the things with the power and there was only one person after Lu Qiang and he was struggling with life and death, Chairman Lu Jinhai.

San Zemin decided to wait until the situation in the family comes to normal and till the moment when someone in the family takes Lu Qiang's position. He was so determined to punish the culprit that he swore on his life, if in the end the culprits couldn't get punished, he will kill them on his own without thinking about the consequences he had to face later.
