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

Zhuge feels satisfied with this woman, he agrees to put her in his team. “Then when you will be able to work? Young lady?” Wendy replies with confidence, “Right now!” Zhuge gets amazed by her quick reply, “Really?! But we don’t have a place for you to live here. How about you find a place to live first then you may come?”
“No need! There are so many inns around, no worry!” Wendy replies then stands up, “Wait me for a second, I need to go telling my donkey. I will be back soon.” Zhuge asks, “Your donkey?!” Wendy nods, “Yes! She is my only family now.” Zhuge feels sympathy for her. As a woman, it’s not convenient to live at inn every day. So he finds her a normal room near his clinic.
It’s a small house with two rooms and a small yard, without any furniture. Due to her money issue, Zhuge bought her some basic stuff, like a bed or something. After then, Wendy found a homeless dog on the street, she can be a company with her donkey, then her new life begins!
She called that homeless dog, Coral, with black fur. Wendy found her on the street. She gave her some food, then Coral went home with her! The first day she came, she’s all black with dirt, you couldn’t even find her eyes. Wendy cleaned her with some hot water and gave her a big bone. After then, Coral treats Wendy as her master.
Wendy’s new life in KungYu clinic seems okay, firstly, no one cherishes her cause she is a woman. Then they see how amazing of her acupuncture skill, people begin to love her! Zhuge watches her from the dark, he asks his people to report him how she behaves every day. It’s such confidence! Her name is the same as old Wendy, also she knows the acupuncture very well! Her character seems to like old Wendy too! On the contrary, she seems to not familiar with old Wendy’s stuff. Sometimes she confuses him. He used Sung to test her before, she only said “Such a good man!” And that’s it, she didn’t have any sorrow expression on her face. If she’s acting, then she’s a talented actor. If she is such a cold-hearted, then she is not old Wendy!
The thing happened on old Wendy was abnormal, it wouldn’t happen again! Maybe he thought too much, Zhuge considered. He didn’t mention to Sung about this new Wendy, otherwise he would be disappointed easily when they figure it out her real identity. About her medical skill, Zhuge impressed a lot, that’s true.
One day, Zhuge calls her in for Zoe’s case. “About Princess Zoe, she has fainted around four years. All doctors don’t know how to handle her and wake her up! That’s why I’m looking for a good doctor all the time to save her. Then I met you. I think you may have a look. Your acupuncture may work on her. What do you say?” Zhuge asks carefully. Wendy thinks for a while, “If all doctors have tried, then I don’t think I can help her that much…” Zhuge replies, “It’s fine, just give it a try! If not, you can’t make her worse anyway.” Wendy nods, “Fine, then I will try!”
“Then tomorrow morning let’s go to the palace.” Zhuge says. “And this Zoe, she is Prince Sung’s sister.” Wendy replies, “Prince Sung? Is that the good man you told me before? He must be a good man.” Zhuge nods. “Such a shame of him!”
The next day, she wakes up early and tries to do some makeup. Because she didn’t sleep well these days of thinking about Sung, so her dark circles under her eyes look terrible. “That’s fine, he won’t even notice me anyway.” She comforts herself. She only makes an easy mask by egg, then changes a clean light blue dress. Suddenly, someone knocks the door, it’s Cooper! He uses to be Wendy’s old friend who has the same story as her. After old Wendy died, new Wendy’s soul moved to others. And she kept in touch with Cooper all the time. After he knew she would come back, he came to help her build her house.
“My god, look at you! Don’t be too happy to see your man!” Copper teases her. “Oh shut up! Don’t make me laugh! I don’t want to have freckles.” Wendy teases back.
“Well, it’s good for you to care about your skin, every day not only today!” He says with laughing. “I don’t have time, come on.” Wendy replies. He turns to Coral and Donkey, “You guys will stay with me today, while your master’s out!”
“Please don’t bring Coral to the sea, she caught cold last time!” Wendy replies.
Cooper nods then hugs Coral up, “Little Coral, look at you! So weak! How a dog caught cold? If you don’t get well then Wendy will give you a big shot!” Coral barks as if she understands and rejects him. “She’s smarter than me actually. Every time I take my needle out, she always runs away.” Wendy laughs.
Cooper comes closer to her, hugging her by arm like a brother, “So, are you ready to meet him?” Wendy laughs, “Just be normal that’s fine.”
“Be normal? Hah, come on! Three years you all think of him! If you don’t worry about him, then why you came back this time?” Cooper says. Wendy shakes her head, “No, I’m not thinking of our relationship now. I came back for him, yes, only for his legs! He must feel worse when the Winter comes. Due to my old treatment at that time, it’s too simple. I think I can cure him entirely this time!” To be honest, she doesn’t sure why she came back this time, maybe she still loves him inside.
Cooper goes to the table to make some hot tea, “I don’t understand you sometimes. It’s half a month now, how can you hold yourself not to see him? Are you a woman? He used to go battle a lot. Last time he got injured, almost lost his life! Three years, he’s too tough to himself. The King adores him more now, cause he won a lot on the battles. But he did this all because of missing you.” Wendy doesn’t reply, she cleans her face then walks to the mirror. “Hey, if I don’t tell, can you still recognize me?”
“I don’t think he cares how you look!” Cooper explains. Wendy sighs, “Yes, you are correct. I was lucky to have my soul back! My master said my new body this time still couldn’t fit well, so I really don’t know how long am I gonna live by this new body? I didn’t think he loved me that much.” Cooper sighs, he knows if a man changes, there are only two reasons, the hatred and love!
Wendy is correct on the other side, her new body can’t fit her well, then she will leave again someday. If Sung knows her back, he will suffer one more time of losing her. As a man, it’s a very heartbroken thing! So better let him sad for now, the time will cure him, sooner or later.
