Chapter 40 Bathing Time

Book:Reborn as A Princess Published:2024-5-1

Wendy looks back to Zack, seems like she doesn’t know about it. Zack sighs, “Yasmin, I guess he didn’t tell you before, due to your relationship.” Zack replies. Wendy has a new identity with Sung from today. He does not only looks handsome but also talented with the public works. Actually, It’s normal for some Princes to keep one or more duties in the palace. “Father, it’s my fault. We didn’t have a good relationship at that time. That’s why he didn’t mention this to me.” Wendy apologies.
The King sighs and replies, “It’s fine, Yasmin. I understand you are jealous with Lacey, that’s understandable. But it’s normal for men to have many wives in the palace. Besides, he is also the minister of public works, all people in this country depend on him, so please try to understand him more.” Wendy nods.
The King asks Chong to call another minister here, due to Sung’s sickness. But Wendy wants to use this chance to meet Sung, “Father, how about I go to have a small talk with Sung? You may ask minister Young to the Sunny palace directly, we can have a small meeting together.” Wendy’s request makes the King sorrow. She reads his mind, continues, “Father, I know Sung is not in a good mood now. But he is a wise man, he knows how to deal with the business and his stuff professionally. I want to use the chance to cheer him up! Make him feel a sense of porous.” Her words surprise the King again, he agrees, “Hmm… Make sense!”
All of a sudden, Wendy feels depressed, like her mind is controlling by someone else now. She wants to cry for no reason! She can’t show her unexpected emotions to the King, so she says goodbye and leaves to Sung.
When they arrive the Sunny Palace, Sung is yelling inside, with throwing something. “I will go check first, you guys please wait me here.” Wendy says. Zack nods, “Fine, please be careful. He is not in a good mood.”
Opening the door, his maids and servants seem very happy to see Wendy, “Welcome, your Royal Princess.” Wendy looks down, she sees a chamber pot on one servant, she understands immediately. Sung is getting pissed because of this. He can’t even pee himself, he needs help from others. And he feels useless. Sung notices her, he doesn’t turn, back to her, “Who says you may go off your bed?” Sung says in a bad mood.
Wendy ignores him, she asks the rest of people to leave. Then she walks toward the window. She opens the curtain, and invites the sunlight in. The sun shines on Sung’s face, he is in a bad looking. The mustache stays on his face like grass; his eyes are red, he doesn’t sleep well; he looks older. Wendy feels sad, it’s her fault to make him like this. She wants to cry, “Well, do you remember we used to race, who would get better first? And I win!”
Sung sneers, “So what?! Trying to show off now, huh?!” Wendy comes closer, bending down, looking into his eyes, “May I call you Sung?” Sung gets shy, her glares seem so real and sincerely, “Whatever.”
“Do you believe me, Sung?” Wendy asks. She places her hand on his shoulder, “If you do, then I promise you now. You will get better. You must believe in yourself!” Wendy’s eyes are red. She sees too much sadness from his eyes. While, Sung pushes her away, “Please don’t give me hope! I kind of accept myself now.”
Wendy smiles, places her hand back, “Have you heard Mongolia? There is a big grassland, green and fresh! People say it connects to the sky, with the blue river, everything looks perfect! I always want to ride horses there with my love. Do you want to ride with me?” Sung gets indulge in her voices. He turns to her, “Well, look at you! You are a wife now. How you gonna go Mongolia? Don’t be ridiculous!”
“That is my dream! I have my right to catch my dream!” Wendy replies and argues like a child.
“Then, you can chase me. I will ride in front!” Sung begins to join her story now. “No, you must chase me!” Wendy laughs, which makes Sung laugh too. Sung feels love at this point, both of them are. If he can walk, he will hug her right now and kiss a little perhaps!
“How do you feel?” Sung hold her hand and asks.
Wendy nods, “Almost recover” She takes his hand. “Oh by the way, father just gave me a mission.” Wendy can’t let those two people wait outside that long. Sung looks up, “What? Did he put the blame on you about me?” Wendy shakes her head, then sits on a chair, “No. He asked me to help him with the business. He showed me the booklet from other ministers.” After then, Wendy told him all the stories that happened in the King’s library. How she and Zack saved Shawn and how the King showed her the booklet. This is totally insane, Sung opens his mouth, shocking. She is so fucking crazy… Where is her courage comes from?! He thinks.
“Anyway, that’s why we came to you. You are smarter than us.” Wendy gives him puppy eyes. “You will help us right?!” Sung can’t refuse her, he just complains a little, “You are so naughty! Well, only this time.” Wendy laughs and cheers, “Great! You are the best I knew it! Then I will invite them in!”
“Wait!” Sung asks, “What?” Wendy replies.
“Help me cleaning, I need to change.” He orders with a blush on his face, very cute. Wendy gets shy unexpectedly, “Ok, I can help you. And how about I call a servant to change for you? You know… I” Wendy doesn’t want to see his peanut.
“Why are you so complicated? You saw everything already.” Wendy doesn’t know how to respond. She has no choice now, so she starts to prepare. She brings him some hot water and takes his clothes off. Then when she is about to leave, Sung yells her back, “Hey! Can you clean for me?” His voice is quite loud, Zack and Young hear very clearly from outside.
Wendy walks out and asks them to wait a bit longer. They laugh and nod. Somehow, two maids walk in and try to help him. “Where is Yasmin? I only want her to clean for me!” He asks the two maids to leave and closes the door behind. Wendy comes back with some clean towels, while he’s naked this time. She doesn’t get used to it at first, then she keeps imagining she is helping a patient in her hospital.
She cleans his face first with warm water, then she squeezes his face, begins to make fun of him, “So, your majesty, how do you feel?” Sung peeks at her and replies, “Well, not too bad.” Wendy smiles, she feels a bit comfortable now. “Now, open your arms!” Sung smiles then opens his arms like a child.
“My God, how many days you haven’t took shower?!” Sung looks at her, sneers, “Then how about let’s take a hot shower?” Wendy shakes her head and recorrects her words, “Oh no no, I mean you look so clean after these days. Wow, it’s impossible!”
