Also, many thanks to everyone who bought me coffee (*≧?≦*)
The imperial palace had strict rules, and those assigned to serve at Bixia Palace were the most outstanding palace maids. Lian'er hadn't undergone such rigorous training in the princess mansion on the border, so her way of doing things didn't quite match the expectations of the palace maids.
Nevertheless, being Princess Ning'an's trusted aide, the palace maids didn't dare to confront her directly. They would just rearrange the clothes she folded after she left.
"Really." Lian'er's self-esteem took another blow as she placed her pile of shabby folded clothes on top of the impeccably tidy ones before leaving sulkingly.
Shortly after she left, Huangfu Xian, whose body had warmed up and was no longer stiff, pushed his wheelchair to the window and propped it open with a pole.
The window wasn't low, and since he had no legs and couldn't stand, this action was actually quite difficult for him.
When he reached for the pole, he almost fell off the wheelchair.
Fortunately, all was well.
He stood in the biting cold wind, gazing at the empty courtyard, once again freezing until his hands and feet were numb.
The sky darkened.
He lowered his gaze, cynically curling his lips.
"Little big brother!"
The little mushroom resurfaced and called out again!
Huangfu Xian's eyelashes trembled rapidly, his stiff body became even stiffer, but his expression remained unchanged.
Little Jing Kong, being small in stature, found the windowsill too high for him. Even with a stone to stand on, it was a bit challenging. However, to his surprise today, he found that the stone had grown taller!
He climbed onto the stone first, then effortlessly climbed over the windowsill!
"Little big brother!"
After sliding down, he turned around and looked at Huangfu Xian with an adorable expression.
There was snow on his cuffs and trousers, but none on his head or shoulders.
"Did you fall?" Huangfu Xian asked coldly.
"Mm." Little Jing Kong nodded honestly. "I fell just twice."
What did he mean "fell just twice?” Two falls were still few?
Little Jing Kong hadn't stumbled in a long time, but his instinct was still there. He timely protected his little head and avoided being hurt.
Huangfu Xian gave him a cold glance, then expressionlessly reached out one hand to support the wheelchair and the other to reach for the pole.
Although he had performed this action countless times when alone, he now felt embarrassed in front of Little Jing Kong and successfully fell off the wheelchair.
"LIttle big brother, are you okay?" Little Jing Kong squatted down to help him.
"Go away!" Huangfu Xian said impatiently.
"Um..." Little Jing Kong looked at him, thought seriously for a moment, and said, "You don't have to be embarrassed. I fall often too."
You're a kid!
Falling is normal for you! When you grow up, you won't fall anymore!
But I'm disabled! contemporary romance
I will fall for the rest of my life! I will always be useless!
Huangfu Xian refused Little Jing Kong's help. With veins bulging in his hands, he dragged his crippled body back onto the wheelchair.
His legs started hurting again.
At the spot of amputation.
Every so often, his bones would protrude painfully from the stump, and each time, he had to endure the excruciating pain of bones grinding.
Every time he ground his bones, it felt like a trip to the underworld.
Several times, he almost couldn't make it back.
He didn't want to experience the pain of bone grinding again, or perhaps he was afraid he wouldn't be able to endure it this time.
But wasn't it strange?
Didn't he want to die a long time ago?
So what was he afraid of now?
"Little big brother, what's wrong? Did you hurt yourself?" Little Jing Kong looked at Huangfu Xian, noticing his unusual expression, and couldn't hide his concern.
"It’s nothing." Huangfu Xian said lightly, pulling a quilt over his painfully maimed legs.
Little Jing Kong wasn't someone who liked to focus on others' shortcomings. No one had deliberately taught him, he just observed how JiaoJiao behaved and followed suit.
His gaze quickly shifted to Huangfu Xian's face. "Huh? Little big brother, why is your face swollen?"
It was swollen last time too, but not this severely. These past few days, it seems like he had been exposed to too much cold wind, and the swollen area had some frostbite.
Huangfu Xian looked calmly at him, "Are you curious?"
"Mm." Little Jing Kong nodded vigorously.
Huangfu Xian faintly smirked and said teasingly, "My mother did it."
Little Jing Kong's two little arms flapped behind him, his small body leaning forward, looking utterly confused, "Why did your mother hit you?"
Huangfu Xian sneered, "Because I'm a cripple?"
Little Jing Kong tightened his small fists and said earnestly, "Even so, she shouldn't hit you! Bad brother-in-law is also a cripple, but JiaoJiao doesn't hit him!"
Huangfu Xian: "..."
"Why is he a bad brother-in-law?" Huangfu Xian asked.
"Because he’s a bad brother-in-law!" Little Jing Kong pouted.
"How bad?" Huangfu Xian's eyes carried a hint of genuine coldness.
"Very bad, so bad!" Little Jing Kong said.
Huangfu Xian knew all too well how wicked an adult could be towards a child.
"Do you want me to teach him a lesson?" He asked.
"No need!" Little Jing Kong coughed lightly, "I-I-I can teach him myself!"
The little mushroom’s cheeks turned red, his eyes flickering, clearly not genuinely disliking the person he called bad brother-in-law.
Huangfu Xian's mood worsened.
He couldn't quite explain why.
Little Nine suddenly fluttered its wings and flew to Huangfu Xian's pillow. It had dismantled so many things and found that its favorite thing to dismantle was surprisingly Huangfu Xian's pillow.
"Little Nine, stop making a mess." Little Jing Kong said helplessly.
Little Nine ignored him and continued to tear it down. Soon, it pecked out the cotton from Huangfu Xian's pillow.
Little Jing Kong sighed with an air of resignation, "It was influenced by Big Brother Yan's Little Eight."
Huangfu Xian asked, "Who is Big Brother Yan?"
"Just the big brother at home." Little Jing Kong replied.
Huangfu Xian's handsome eyebrows furrowed, "You have other big brothers?"
Little Jing Kong held up two little fingers, "Yep, two! Big Brother Yan and Big Brother Xiaoshun!"
Huangfu Xian's face darkened, "Do you like them?"
Little Jing Kong nodded without hesitation. "Yes, I do!"
Huangfu Xian's face grew even darker.
"With so many big brothers, why come to me?"
"To take you out to play!"
"Humph!"
Huangfu Xian coldly turned his face away.
Little Jing Kong reached out his chubby little hand and grabbed his finger, the soft touch reminiscent of a kitten's paw pads.
“Little big brother, let me take you to my home!"
As soon as Little Jing Kong finished speaking, the urgent footsteps of a young eunuch and a panicked scream came from outside the door, "Not good! Something happened to Princess Ning'an!"
