Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Jake stood near the kitchen platform silently, only to hear his elder brother.

"I didn't expect you to be here. You surprised us. How did you come so early here just in the night? Did you use the private plane?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Jake replied.

"My Bad. Anyways, I am happy my younger brother missed me so much to come here and surprised me," An Tian commented, while Jake nodded lightly and stood silent.

Seeing his younger brother not agreeing strongly to his conclusion, An Tian asked, "Don't tell me you missed Noah….….?"

SHATTERED!!

Everyone looked at the source of the voice, which interrupted An Tian from talking with Jake.

Noah just got up to put the empty glass on the center table when An Tian took his name and dropped the glass on the floor in shock.

Getting back to his senses, Noah countered, "Why would this idiot miss me? I doubt other than himself; he even considers others to give that much importance." Noah looked at Jake, "Am I right, your highness?"

"I mean to say he misses Noah and Lu Lijun, his two friends," An Tian interrupted before these two would argue.

When these three talked, others could only look at them. Jiang Yang and Lu Feng could see something was not right but chose to be silent.

Noah stepped towards the kitchen as he passed across Jake but didn't even look at him. Lu Lijun knew what Noah was up to and stopped him, "I will clean it. You go get fresh."

"I should be the one to clean the mess I create," Noah countered and went to get the cleaning tools while Lu Lijun didn't stop him and gave narrowed eyes to look at Jake as it was his fault to anger Noah.

"We should leave," Jiang Yang spoke as he had to go to the hospital and Lu Feng nodded, "Lijun, you can stay here if you want to."

Lu Lijun agreed. The two stepped towards the door while An Tian and Lu Lijun followed to see them off. Just as they reached the door, they stopped, hearing something, and turned to look at it.

Noah came to the sofa to clean the shattered pieces of glass, but just as he was about to start, Jake stopped him.

"I will do it."

"Doesn't suit, your highness," Noah countered.

"Stop being stubborn. Let me do it," Jake insisted, trying to get the broom from Noah.

"Fuck off," came the reply from angry Noah.

Just as Noah was about to start, Jake held his hand to stop again.

"Let me do my work," Noah warned as he looked at his hand where Jake held it, at just above his wrist.

"I won't unless you listen to me," Jake declared, his intentions clear.

"What if I won't?" Noah tried to pull his hand from Jake's hold, but instead, Jake tightened his grip and pulled Noah towards him and asked, "What are you so angry about? I poured water on you or something else?"

Noah stared back at Jake, "Why would I be angry? Let me do my work," and tried to pull his hand.

"One more word and you will see what I'll do with you," Jake warned, pulled the broom from Noah's hand and dropped it on the floor.

Noah could see that hidden annoyance and anger in Jake's eyes and realized it was not the right time to be stubborn because if Jake showed his anger, there would be chaos in the house.

Also, something else stopped Noah from going against Jake's commanding words, and he stood still.

Jake held Noah's hands and checked it. He let go of one and continued observing the other one, which had a burn mark.

Noah tried to retreat, but Jake held it tightly as he moved his sight up to look at Noah to warn him not to move.

Noah stayed silent and let Jake observe his hands.

"Does it hurt," Jake asked, looking at the burn mark.

"I am strong enough to bear such normal pain..…"

"Answer me only what I asked, "Jake warned again, and Noah replied, "A little."

"Good," Jake let go of his hand and instructed calmly, "Go get fresh, you stink of alcohol."

Noah quietly went to his room without saying a word while the others could only look at them to know what was happening.

Lu Feng and Jiang Yang looked An Tian and Lu Lijun.

Lu Lijun averted his sight and stepped outside as he informed Lu Feng, "I will go with you." He changed his plan to stay with his friends.

An Tian nodded to unspoken questions from Lu Feng and Jiang Yang, and they looked back at Jake, who was busy cleaning the mess on the floor, and they didn't know what to say.

The three left, and An Tian closed the door. He looked at his serious-looking brother but didn't think it was a good time to talk to him. He chose to let his brother be alone for a while and went to his room.

On the way back to Lu Mansion, Lu Feng and Lu Lijun both were silent. Lu Lijun looked at his brother, thinking he would ask something, but Lu Feng didn't.

"Don't look at me like this. I won't ask you anything that you won't like to answer," Lu Feng assured, and Lu Lijun stopped looking at his brother.

They reached home when the entire family was awake. In the garden, elder Lu was having a morning stroll when these two stepped out of the car.

"Morning young men," Elder Lu greeted them.

"Morning, Grandpa," both said in sync.

"Seems like you guys had fun last night."

Elder lu commented as he could see the condition Lu Feng was in, his eyes red, hair messed a bit, white shirt full of wrinkles, and he reeked of alcohol.

But surprisingly, Lu Lijun was in good condition apart from his messy hair.

Elder looked at Lu Feng, "Did this lad take after his elder brother?"

"Yes, grandpa," Lu Feng answered, knowing what his grandfather meant.

Elder Lu sighed, "My grandson will miss the fun of drinking," he looked sad.

"It's fine, grandpa. I don't like to drink, anyways," Lu Lijun countered.

"It's fine, then as there is nothing we can do."
