Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Rank went down when I was planning to give mass release of 10 chapters at #5 but seems like I don't need to write much this week. :) One promised bonus chapter would be here in few hours..

Accepting Lu Feng's hand, Nixxxie stood up and followed him. When they reached the living room, Xi Cheng was sitting on the sofa. Seeing him, Nixxxie held Lu Feng's hand tightly while Lu Feng continued walking ahead not minding Xi Cheng.

Xi Cheng stood up seeing them both but said nothing as he continued looking at them leaving the home. It was obvious that Nixxxie didn't want to stay there so Xi Cheng decided to let her be and he knew Lu Feng was the only person who could handle her at that time.

When they sat in the car, Lu Feng asked, "Do you want me to take you to Jiang Yang?"

"No." A firm reply came from Nixxxie.

Lu Feng didn't talk further and straight took her to his apartment. Nixxxie didn't question him where they were going and when they reached his apartment, she didn't even ask who's home it was. Only one thought stuck in her mind and that was to be away from that person and everyone else. Moreover, she believed wherever Lu Feng would take her that would be the best place for her and he was the only one who would understand her.

"Be like in your home," Lu Feng instructed and Nixxxie nodded.

"Wait here." Saying Lu Feng went inside his bedroom and came after some time. He went inside to check if his room was fine and he could let Nixxxie use it. Once he set up everything, he came out and spoke.

"You can use that room and rest there."

"Thank you brother, Feng."

Patting her head as if she was a kid, Lu Feng assured, "You don't need to. Go and rest."

Nodding Nixxxie left and Lu Feng decided to rest on the sofa of the living room.

In Xi residence...

Xi Cheng couldn't sleep thinking about Nixxxie. The moment when she held the gun on her temple which scared the hell out of him with the fear of losing her and the moment she actually pulled the trigger with her teary eyes shut tightly were playing fresh in front of his eyes.

He was restless thinking what if he had really lost her and how would have he bear with it. How could he imagine not being able to see her ever? All those thoughts were making him restless and he had to take the sleeping pills to get into the sleep.

---------

The next morning when Lu Feng woke up, he looked at the time and it was late. Lu Feng looked at his bedroom's door but it was still closed so he thought Nixxxie was still sleeping. Not willing to wake her up, he decided to sleep for some more time but just then Nixxxie came out of the room.

Knowing Lu Feng slept on the sofa, She felt bad that Lu Feng had to sleep on the couch. She hesitantly went to him and seeing her apologetic, Lu Feng spoke.

"Though I have a bedroom, I hardly sleep there. Most of the time I end up sleeping on the couch whenever I work till late sitting here or whenever I am drunk. Because of you, that room came to some use."

His words eased her but she didn't know what to do as it was her first time in his home and she was guest.

"I will get fresh and make breakfast for us." Saying Lu Feng got up from the couch and Nixxxie stopped him.

"I-I can make something," she offered.

"It's okay. Don't feel pressured for anything and just relax." Lu Feng went to his room and came back after some time having a bath and getting ready.

"What will you eat?" Lu Feng asked.

"Anything."

Lu Feng was expecting this answer and didn't ask further. Just then the doorbell rang and it scared Nixxxie but Lu Feng calm. He went to open the door but Nixxxie stopped him.

"Don't open. It must be him." She looked anxious as the sweat line appeared on her forehead thinking it must be Xi Cheng.

"Calm down. Even it's him, you don't need to worry." Instructing, Lu Feng opened the door and one man was standing there with two shopping bags in his hands.

Lu Feng accepted the bags and closed the door. Nixxxie felt relax seeing it was not Xi Cheng. Lu Feng went to her as he passed her the bags.

"This is for you."

"Huh?" she looked at him surprisingly.

"I asked An Tian to send few casual clothes for you as I think you don't plan to go back home so soon."

Nodding lightly she accepted the bags and Lu Feng instructed again, "Go get fresh, and till then I will prepare the breakfast for you."

When Nixxxie went inside the room, Lu Feng's cellphone rang. The number flashing on the screen didn't surprise Lu Feng and he picked up the call.

"What do you want now?" Lu Feng asked not giving the other person a chance to talk.

"How is she?" Xi Cheng asked.

When Xi Cheng woke up, the only thing he could think about was Nixxxie and he couldn't stop himself from calling Lu Feng.

"You are in no place to ask this," Lu Feng replied.

"I know it but you also know that my care for her is not fake," Xi Cheng countered.

Lu Feng kept silent for a moment as he knew Xi Cheng never wished to hurt Nixxxie though he acted as a bad man in front of her which was the result of Nixxxie's hate towards him.

"Then, not knowing about her is your punishment."

Saying Lu Feng hung up the call while Xi Cheng sat silently in the bed. He looked lost as there was nothing he could do.

---------

Nixxxie came out of the room after freshening up but Lu Feng didn't tell her about the call from Xi Cheng, not willing to spoil her mood.

"Breakfast is ready," Lu Feng informed and Nixxxie went to the dining table where Lu Feng had already done serving the food.

Sitting on the chair and glancing at the dining table which was full of tasty food, Nixxxie spoke. "I feel like I am troubling you."

Lu Feng smiled a bit as he spoke, "Sister can never be trouble for any brother. Instead, I am glad to have one lovely sister who came to me when she needed someone."
