Chapter 0042 Solace (2 / 2)

The tealight was just an arm’s length away from him, but it seemed a thousand miles away.

“Ha! Ha!”

Chen Zian laughed out silently, his eyes gradually reddening.

The pain was like an icy snake, wrapped tightly around his right leg, biting and devouring all his hope and joy.

He looked out the window, the night was thick, the moonlight like water sprinkled all over the courtyard, the ginkgo tree leaves gently swayed in the breeze, since it was a good time.

Mansion in the arrangement of the red silk of the wedding many have not yet taken off, but now he this “bridegroom”, but became a even pouring water can not be a waste of man!

Half a month ago, he was still waving his ink and writing in front of the Deng Magpie Building, winning the top spot in the competition amidst the applause of the crowd – while his once spirited self was now stuck on his deathbed.

The court doesn’t need a cripple as an official, and his dream of a blue cloud, after all, has become a piece of paper!

He secretly admonished himself that he couldn’t just sink, he had to pull himself together, but the bitterness in his heart was like ice, so cold that it made him shiver.

Why, why did it come to this–

He closed his eyes with great difficulty and kept pounding his right leg with great force. But except for the heartbreaking pain that still came from that break, the lower side of his right leg was already senseless.

If he really becomes an invalid from now on, what fun would he have living-

“Second young master!”

Xiang Capsicum had just arrived at Pine Wind Courtyard when she saw this scene. She could no longer care about much and rushed up to hug the agonizing Chen Zian: “Don’t! Don’t!”

She hugged her teenager with all her might, with nothing but pure comfort, unadulterated by any worldly desires.

Chen Zian didn’t struggle.

He grabbed her shirt, his eyes had been soaked with tears at some point, a thousand words clogged in his throat, and in the end, he could only whimper out in her embrace, “Fragrant Capsicum, how is it that it still hurts so much even though it is obvious that my leg has been broken-“

“It’s all right it’s all right, young master, it’ll all pass, it’ll all pass. The slave girl is still here, we’re all still here-“

On the side, Wang Xuan woke up in a daze, but when he heard Xiang Capsicum hugging their young master, he was immediately scared out of his drowsiness.

“Fragrant Capsule Sister, why don’t you, or I, I’ll do it!”

Chen Zian’s body trembled again, like a helpless little beast.

Xiang Capsicum did not respond to Wang Xuan, but only doubled her pain and embraced Chen Zian, comforting him in the wrong language, ”Second young master, even if you can’t walk, you can’t take the imperial examinations anymore. You can at least write theater books! You can write a good book like Golden Orchid Margin, you can definitely become a generation of opera masters like Guan Daqing–“

All of Xiang Capsicum’s thoughts were on Chen Zian, and where did she notice that Wang Xuan’s face on the side changed abruptly.
