Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

"Fangsu, we need to check you if it hurts you and later we need to punish the culprit. Even though he is my brother, I won't let him go off. He will get what he deserves."

"I don't want it." Ming Fangsu denied, her voice heavy, choked and broken.

"Fangsu, you don't have to fear him. I am with you. Trust me."

Ming Fangsu took a deep breath and spoke. "I am not scared of him. I don't want my father to know about it because he won't be able to handle it."

"We can't hide it, Fangsu. It's not a small thing and more important we can't let go of the culprit who hurt you like this." Zhang Jei tried to convince her.

Even though Ming Fangsu was hurt both mentally and physically, she had already decided what she wanted to do. She tried to get up and sit on the bed. Zhang Jei helped her sit while helping her to cover herself, and the nanny song brought water for her.

Ming Fangsu was broken inside and she would have cried all the time but the realization of what will happen if her father will get to know about her brought her back to her senses and made her think rationally despite the pain she was feeling in her heart.

She held Zhang Jei's hands as she was pleading. "Don't let father know about this. This should not leave this room." She continued looking at her sister-in-law in a hope that she will listen to her.

"Fangsu, think about it. If you hide it, he would always be free from his sin. Do you want it?" Zhang Jei asked.

"I don't care about anyone but my father. Sister-in-law, you know how much he loves me. Even the tiny thorn prick my feet, it hurts him and this thing will break him down."

"I don't care about anyone but my father. Sister-in-law, you know how much he loves me. Even the tiny thorn prick my feet, it hurts him and this thing will break him down. Not being able to protect his daughter and this thing happened in her own home, what will he do knowing it. He will first kill the sinner and I know he will kill himself as he won't be able to handle it."

Not knowing what to say, Zhang Jei continued looking at her puzzled and her eyes shedding tears for the girl whom she always thought as her younger sister.

"I don't want my father to die. Please listen to me." Ming Fangsu pleaded again.

Hearing her, Zhang Jei couldn't help but apologize to her as the culprit was her brother. Her voice choked. Not a single word could make its way out. "I am sorry, Fangsu." Zhang Jei cried.

"You don't need to as it was not your fault," said Ming Fangsu.

The one who needed to get a console was consoling the other, acting all strong.

"Sister-in-law!" Ming Fangsu called her.

"Hmm!" Zhang Jei looked at her to know what she wanted to say.

"Do you really think of me as your younger sister?" Ming Fangsu asked.

"I always did?"

"This younger sister wants a promise from you that you won't ever tell anyone what happened tonight."

Zhang Jei was hesitant.

Not getting a reply from Zhang Jei, Ming Fangsu spoke again. "For the sake of my father and the man whom you also think of as your father. Do you want him to die with the pain of not being able to protect his daughter?"

Zhang Jei shook her head.

"Then promise me you won't tell anyone. First time I am asking you for something and I wish you won't reject me. Not for me, but for the sake of father. Also, if someone knows about it, I won't be able to live with my head high."

"You did nothing wrong to lower your head in front of everyone," Zhang Jei said.

Nodding, Ming Fangsu asked, "I know but which girl would like others to know that she was raped?"

The word Rape she said it normally but Zhang Jei couldn't take it. "How can you think about others and forget your own pain? No need to act so strong it will just hurt you."

"I am hurt enough. Now nothing can hurt me. Avoiding saying it, won't change the fact that it happened with me."

Zhang Jei couldn't understand how Ming Fangsu got the courage suddenly when a while ago she was just crying.

Ming Fangsu passed her sight across both the women standing in front of her. "Promise me, you both won't tell it to anyone."

Zhang Jei and nanny Song had no other option but to listen to her. Going against her will mean hurting her.

"We promise!" To these words from Zhang Jei, Nanny Song nodded too.

A light smile of gratitude painted on Ming Fangsu's lips. "Thank you so much. Now I don't have to worry about father anymore."

Both ladies thought Ming Fangsu was relieved because of the promise they made, but they couldn't see what was behind her pretty eyes. In her mind, she had already decided something and just waited for it to execute.

"Don't you want to see a doctor?" Zhang Jei asked worriedly.

Ming Fangsu shook her head. "I am fine. I just need to take a bath."

"I will help you." Zhang Jei offered.

"I want to be alone for now. I will bath and sleep."

Zhang Jei had a doubt that how come Ming Fangsu was behaving so normally and asked, "Fangsu, what is going on in your mind?"

Ming Fangsu looked at Zhang Jie, pulling out a light smile on her lips.

"Don't worry sister-in-law, I am not a weak person. What happened with me is sad and very hurting that I want to keep crying, but it won't make things better. I need to be better till morning so I can face my father how he likes to see me, pretty and always smiling. If I keep crying, father will guess that I am not well. I just need some time alone."
