Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband-Novel

Xiao Min and Jiang Yuyan entered the home where the butler greeted them.

Jiang Yuyan stepped ahead to go upstairs to her room as she said, "In my room."

The butler understood and nodded as he looked at Xiao Min, feeling worried. novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

Xiao Min stepped ahead and called, "Boss...."

Jiang Yuyan stopped and turned to look at him, "Now, will you follow me to my room?"

Xiao Min rooted to his place and spoke, "Boss should only rest."

"That’s what I planned to do." Saying coldly, she turned to leave.

The butler signaled the servant, and soon he returned with the one tray that had one alcohol bottle and glass.

Xiao Min went to the servant and checked the completely filled bottle.

"Empty it half," Xiao Min instructed.

The servant did so and took it to Jiang Yuyan’s room, expecting to get an earful from their lady boss. The other waited to hear some noise by the lady after seeing that half-empty bottle, but surprisingly nothing happened.

The servant returned, and Xiao Min asked, "Doesn’t she say anything?"

The servant, who himself looked puzzled, shook his head, "Mistress saw it but just asked me to leave."

It surprised the other two, and at the same time, it worried them to get an unexpected reaction from her.

The butler asked the servant to leave and then looked at Xiao Min, "Is Mr. Xiao Min staying here?"

Xiao Min nodded, and the butler said, "Your room is ready to use."

Xiao Min went to the guest room on the ground floor. Whenever there was something to worry about his boss, Xiao Min used to stay there to look after her. He was the person who knew everything about her and sometimes cleaned after the mess created by her like she was his daughter.

His cold lady boss was sometimes spontaneous with her mood swings that it was difficult to guess what was going on in her mind, and this side of her was only known to Xiao Min, San Zemin, and the butler of this home.

Getting changed, Xiao Min thought to rest, but worry about his boss couldn’t let him be. More than an hour passed by, and he came out of the room where the butler was in the living room, standing and staring at the first floor, towards Jiang Yuyans’ room as he looked worried.

Xiao Min went to him, "What happened?"

"Everything seems unusually calm," the butler replied.

Xiao Min thought the same, and not thinking for a second, he stepped to go to Jiang Yuyan’s room, and the butler followed him.

Xiao Min knocked on the door, but there was no reply. He opened the door just to get an unexpected scene.

Jiang Yuyan was asleep while sitting on the floor and resting her head on the center table, in front of the couch in her room.

Xiao Min frowned because other than what he sent to her, there was one more bottle of alcohol that was empty.

Going towards her, he picked up the other bottle and asked the butler, "From where did it come?"

The butler himself looked puzzled, "It’s not from home."

Xiao Min checked it properly, "It’s a foreign brand. Who gave it to her?"

The butler had no idea, and just then, Xiao Min checked one label on the bottle. He understood and pinched his nose bridge.

"Is it from when she went on a business trip?" The butler asked, and Xiao Min nodded.

Sighing deeply, Xiao Min kept the bottle aside and went to drunk Jiang Yuyan. Lifting her in his arm, he carried her towards the bed where the butler guided his way.

Putting her on the bed, Xiao Min observed her face. It was clear that she had cried like always, and it broke his heart.

Grabbing the tissue paper from the side table, he dabbed it on her face and eyes as he mumbled, "Till how long are you going to be like this?"

The butler knew it too and felt sad for his mistress.

Covering her with the quilt, Xiao Min instructed, "Check the entire room if there are any more bottles."

The butler nodded and cleaned up the stuff on the center table, and left the room.

Feeling worried, Xiao Min kept staring at her while standing there. "Don’t be like this. Lu Qiang would have never liked to see you like this."

This time Xiao Min was not an assistant but Lu Qiang’s friend who cared for someone precious to his late friend.

Making sure she was comfortable and turning off the lights, he came downstairs and went to his room, but the worry about his boss couldn’t let him sleep.

The next morning he woke up after a small nap and got ready. Just as he came out of the room, he saw the butler taking a drink upstairs. He understood it was for Jiang Yuyan’s hangover.

"I’ll get this," Xiao Min informed and went upstairs with the drink.

Jiang Yuyan sat in her bed while holding her head when Xiao Min entered the room.

She saw him and immediately looked to the other side as if she didn’t see him. She knew it was the time to get some nagging.

Xiao Min held the drink in front of her, not saying a word that surprised her.

Jiang Yuyan picked up the drink and emptied it. Xiao Min took it back from her and said, "We have a routine check-up with the doctor tomorrow."

"Hmm," she nodded.

"This time, there would be no excuse."

"Hmm."

Xiao Min looked serious as if he was the boss and she was the assistant, and she nodded to everything like an obedient girl.

Just as she thought it was over, Xiao Min spoke, "From now on, whenever the boss returns from a foreign trip, the bag has to go through a complete check."

Jiang Yuyan looked at him shockingly, "Don’t tell me you..."

Xiao Min stood calmly, knowing what she would say and do.

Throwing the quilt aside, she immediately got down from the bed, forgetting the headache she felt at the moment. As if her life depended on it, she went towards the big drawer chest in her room. She opened the main two drawers at the bottom that concerned her, and they were empty.
