The Virgin Outcast Who Stole the Emperor's Heart

Chapter 37

Chapter 37 - Min-jun

"How did you know that the Emperor was going to set my brother free?." I asked the question that I've been wanting to ask Jandi ever since I entered the throne hall through the secret passage ..because I'm so sure when I entered, that the people there didn't even know that my brother isn't going to die.

"I didn't know, I just wanted you to see your brother for the last time before he's executed ..I actually thought he was going to be sentenced and it won't be fair if you didn't see him one last time." Jandi said which made me raise on eye at her in disbelief. She had me so happy and what if the Emperor wasn't wise enough to asked that question he asked Sangyun, so my brother would have died ..no, no! My brother is alive and soon he will come meet me before he will head back to Shilli to go rule his people. I'm so happy for him! I'm so happy, I just wish that he will know the people who set him and father up so that I will hand those people over to the Emperor and the Emperor will clear my brother and Father's name.

I turn to my door and begin walking towards it in a hurry steps when I hear someone knocking on it ..I begin smiling as I open the door because I already know that it my brother and indeed it's him.

"Min-jun." I yell happily as I throw myself at him, hugging him so tightly and at the same time using my hand to ruffle his long unkempt hair, although it's neat and smells nice due to his recent shower ..it's still unkempt but I don't care right now. I'm so happy that my brother is right in front of me and some part of me is still finding that hard to believe.

"Look at you, you're all grown up." I said happily while still in his embrace.

"Look at you too, Nana you're the one who I should be saying that to ..My little baby sister is married and to the Emperor." My brother says as he set me standing on my two feet. I raise my head up to look at him as the tone which he used to say that I'm married didn't sound quite happy.

"You don't like that I'm married to the Emperor ..do you?

"It's not that Nana, I'm happy that you're married to the Emperor because look at you little sister ..you look well, I was actually worried about you ..like what you will be doing now. Is she ok or is she roaming around a foreign country and begging for work, shelter or food like I was doing before I met Isabella and her mother.

I'm happy that you didn't go through all that and i know the Emperor will take care of you ..I'm just worried about the Emperor's godmother ..she has connections Nana. Kyung-sook is a powerful woman ..being with different powerful men has made her powerful and please don't get in her way little sister. I've heard of what you did which lead to this ..all of this and although I'm grateful, please little sister don't get in Kyung-sook way because you can't take her down alone." My brother said sounding scared but I'm sure the only reason he's scared is because of my safety ..him knowing that I'm so close to an evil person scares him.

"Don't worry about me brother, Queen mother can't do ..wait, why did you call her the Emperor's godmother just now." I asked confused ..maybe, I didn't hear him correctly but no, I'm sure I had him ..he did said godmother instead of mother and his mother can't also be his godmother. Oh my god! They don't even have any resemblance.

"Why didn't my poor brain notice this earlier?" I asked myself feeling so dumb then begin scolding myself .. "Calm down Nana ..you might I've heard wrongly bu.. But now thinking about it, they sure do not look like mother and son ..they have no resemblance or whatsoever.
