Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Lu Lijun came downstairs for dinner where Jiang Yuyan was waiting for him. Martha had served the dinner for them, leaving the two alone.

"Seems like it was a busy day," Jiang Yuyan asked as they started eating.

Lu Lijun nodded and looked at her, "We have to leave for vacation so I have to finish most of the work."

She nodded and asked, "When exactly are we leaving?..." she cleared her throat, "I need to pack. That's why asking. Last time you didn't mention exactly when," she asked hesitantly as she didn't wish to sound like a desperate one.

"Tomorrow evening," Lu Lijun answered.

"And for how long..how many days?" she asked.

"As long as you can endure me," he replied with a serious face.

Jiang Yuyan's face turned red and felt her heart skipping a beat, "I...will finish packing tomorrow.... D-Do you want me to pack for you as well?"

Lu Lijun observed her red face but controlled from smiling at it. He nodded, "That would be a help. I will be in the office the entire day. Once I return home, we will leave."

"Won't you be tired?" she asked worriedly.

"You should not doubt my strength and stam...."

"I...I understood. You can finish your work. I will pack both of our bags?" she interrupted him, with her face turning redder.

'This guy won't even let me eat peacefully. So shameless,' she frowned inwardly.

Lu Lijun smiled lightly and added food to her dish, "Eat more. I don't want to be the reason for you starving yourself."

She glared at him, "Then you can talk less shamelessly."

"True, it's time to stop talking and doing shameless things only. I will keep that in mind."

She sighed, "I can never beat you in talk. I wonder how you become so shameless. From where you have learned all this."

"It runs in the blood. Was my brother not the same?" he asked normally.

Jiang Yuyan looked at him. How can he be so comfortable about mentioning his brother in such things? Lu Qiang was the same as well but it was not something she would like to share with Lu Lijun. It was awkward. How can this guy be so comfortable with her previous love life even though the person was his brother? Shouldn't he feel uncomfortable?

"I am fine with it," Lu Lijun said, "And you should be fine with it as well."

Jiang Yuyan got back to her senses, "Lu Qiang was the same but not like you. You are just too much."

"Would it be fun if I was just like him? You should look for new things and enjoy them," Lu Lijun countered.

"Yeah!" she sighed, "My bad. I will look forward to new things." She paused for a moment and then looked at Lu Lijun, "Just so you know..."

He looked at her, "Hmm?"

"....that I didn't fall for you because I thought you were like him or I saw him in you. I fall for you because you are you. Both of you are somewhat the same being brothers but are different in a lot more ways. But one thing is so common between you two that whatever I tried, I always failed to ignore you or run away from you two. I always ended up going back to you or to him when he was alive."

Lu Lijun stared at her for a while as she didn't seem like she realized that she had just confessed to him without using those three particular words that the couple in love use to confess. He didn't mind it as long as she said it. Those were her sincere words and for them, he could only be thankful to her.

He cleared his throat lightly and said, "Well, we brothers have our own charm. Glad that it helped to make you fall for us."

The two continued their dinner while talking about the stuff in the office.

When they returned to the room, Lu Lijun saw so many shopping bags placed on the couch, "Seems like you had fun shopping," he commented.

"It was tiring," she countered. "But I felt better after visiting a spa."

Lu Lijun stood in front of her as he observed her face closely, "Looks like it," and then held her long hair strands in his hands, "Seems like you cut your hair."

'He noticed it,' she thought and explained, "I am here for a month and didn't visit the salon and my hair...."

He leaned closer and inhaled the scent of her hair that interrupted her, "It smells so good. I am glad you are doing all this for me."

"No, it's a normal schedule that I follow," she tried to deny.

He sighed, "Fine, I believe you."

"I have bought something for you as well," she changed the topic before he asked what else she did.

"For me?"

She nodded and then picked up the shopping bag. She pulled a box and handed it over to him.

He opened that box and there was a limited edition branded watch. He pulled it out of the box and she asked, "Did you like it?"

"That is the wrong question to ask," he countered and handed her over the watch, "Put it on me."

She did so and heard him, "I like everything you bring for me. But yes, the watch is really good. The kind I like."

She offered him a bright smile and looked at the watch on his wrist, "It does look good on your hand."

"Won't you show me what you bought for yourself?" he asked as he looked at those so many shopping bags.

Suddenly her face turned a little red. She sure didn't want him to show all of her shopping.

"It's nothing much. Just the normal clothes. You will see them anyways when I wear them," she looked at the watch, "It's late too. You should sleep."

"At least tell me if you bought that sexy dress," he insisted.

Jiang Yuyan walked behind him and pushed him to bed as she tried to hide her embarrassed face, "Go to bed fast. You need to sleep."

Lu Lijun let her push him to bed and asked, "Why do I feel like you are hiding something?"

"You think too much. Just go to sleep."

She finally managed to get him into the bed and felt relieved that he didn't go through her shopping.
