Chapter 47 My Dear Fellow

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

Seeing how Wendy treats her mother, Sunny regrets how she used to trap Wendy at that time with Lacey. She kneels and makes an apologizes, “I’m sorry, my Royal Princess! I shouldn’t listen to Princess Lacey to slander you! It’s all my fault, that’s why I deserved to leave the palace. Please punish me!”
Wendy feels touched and helps her up, “About that, I forgot already. Please don’t blame yourself.” Sunny gets touched as well by Wendy’s generously. Then she starts to talk about her mother’s disease, “My mom gets sick after my elder brother died. She was too shock to lose her mind at that time. Then one day, she saw my brother’s straw hat on the ground, and recalled her memory. She ran to his grave to cry, on the way, she got hit by a big cow. The blood was everywhere. So there’s a big wound left on her leg from that day. We found her a doctor, he said she got injured too much from outside, and inside. He couldn’t help us. Later on, my mom couldn’t breathe normally sometimes, nearly died one or two times. We have no money for her to cure her disease! The doctor said she needed ginseng. That’s why every time Princess Lacey threatened me by my mom, she said if I didn’t listen to her she wouldn’t give me free ginseng anymore!”
Wendy rubs her hands, feeling sympathy, “You are a very tough girl. You have suffered a lot all the time. I feel sorry for you.” She turns to Chen, “Bring that rare ginseng to her tomorrow, I don’t need it that much anyway.” Turning to Sunny, “How’s your mom’s wound? Is it getting better?” Sunny nods. Wendy moves closer to her mother’s leg, and tries to check it. “You will be scared, Princess, better not…” Sunny stops her.
Wendy laughs, “Hah, nothing can scare me, Sunny, even Lacey!” But still, Sunny’s mom feels too shame to show her. “Then I will call a doctor here for her.” Wendy doesn’t want to make her mom pressure again. Suddenly, Sunny kneels, “Your Princess, my life belongs to you now! I will do anything for you!” Wendy doesn’t like this rule here, when you feel gratitude you need to kneel and sacrifice your life, something like that. She puts a wry smile and helps her up, “Sunny, I don’t need you to sacrifice for me. I just need your father’s help!” Sunny’s eyes turn red, she knows that rare ginseng can make her father work for her at least ten years. And she is a very thoughtful princess, Sunny thinks. Soon, Sunny’s father back and hears all the stories. He feels gratitude also.
“Does this call wheelchair??” Her father asks. “You know this kind of chair?!” Wendy asks, full of surprised. Sunny’s father nods, “Yes! A young man came to me before, he asked me to put wheels on his wheelchair. It’s a weird chair, you can make it high and low. Very exquisite!” Wendy shocks totally, “My God! Laddroller! How people can create this in such an ancient time? That’s unbelievable!” Wendy keeps asking, “Where is this young man? Do you know?” She feels this young man may have the same story as her, she gets curiosity.
Wendy’s father nods, “Yes, I know. He will come today for taking his wheelchair back in my store! You may come with me, Princess!” Then Wendy and Chen follow Sunny’s father out, to his store. He asks the boss, “Boss, does Childe Cooper come for his wheelchair today?” The boss nods, “Yes, he just left.” Then he moves his eyes to Wendy, due to her fancy dressing, “Who is this lady? Does she come to make a chair as well?” Sunny’s father nods then runs out to chase Cooper. They run for a long time, and Wendy’s energy surprises Sunny’s father. Such a superwoman!
Finally, at the corner of West Street, they find Cooper’s carriage, “Childe Cooper, please wait!!” The man in the carriage hears him and stops the car. He opens the curtain and asks, “What’s going on, uncle?” Wendy sees this young man, he looks quite fashion. He wears cyan clothes, with short glossy hair. Looks very straight and arrogant. A bullet necklace hangs around his neck! It’s the thing not belongs to this world! Wendy gets too shocked to see him, she feels like this man is not belonged to this world. “Sir, could you leave me a phone number to contact late?” The man looks at her in shock as well. Then he seems to understand her.
“Hello, my name is Cooper! My old name is Fang!” He offers a hand to her. Wendy smiles, holding his hand, “Hello, my name is Yasmin, my old name is Wendy!” Both of them feel connections inside, they are strangers to each other, but somehow they are good friends. Then, they hug each other, tight. Chen goes up to separate them, she can’t imagine how a man could hug a woman like that, it’s very rude. “Congratulations, seems like you are a Princess here…” Cooper says, smiling. Wendy replies, “Whatever, can you show me your wheelchair?”
“Oh, do you have a disabled person at home?” Cooper asks curiously. Wendy laughs, “It’s my Majesty! He ruined his legs because of me. That’s why I asked my friend, Sunny’s father, to make a wheelchair for me.” Cooper thinks for a while, “Wow, a man sacrificed himself for you?! How cool is it?! How about you take my chair today, I will make one more later. I don’t need it that much now.” Wendy thanks him then asks, “Do you have a disabled person in your place?” She feels this man has some incredible story. “Well, my father won’t be able to walk soon, the doctor said.” He sighs and replies. “What kind of disease he got?” Wendy asks.
“Do you know General Zhu?” He says, “He is an old retired general.” Wendy shakes her head.
“That General Zhu used to fight for the King?” Chen speaks suddenly. Wendy turns to her, “Do you know him?”
Chen laughs, nodding, “Yes! He used to be the Master of our Majesty. Our majesty used to learn the archery with him with Prince Zack. Then he got retired after. He is a good general!” Wendy nods, feeling amazed, “Then why he didn’t ask for treatment in palace, if he’s such a famous general?” Cooper sighs, “He is too proud to tell people about his disease. He used to get injured on the battles, then when he gets old, his body gets weak day by day. Anyway, let’s talk later. You may take my wheelchair for your majesty.” Wendy smiles, feeling great, “Ok! I will meet you soon! Let’s talk later!”
Wendy and Chen go into his carriage and on their way back to the Palace. She feels fantastic to meet a new friend today, who could understand her well. This makes her like home.
