Chapter 404: I Won’t Look For You Anymore
The a sweet fragrance of some herb was burning in the incense burner filling the room with a pleasant aroma. Su Yunxi was sleeping in the couch neatly bundled. Her pregnancy symptoms have started to show and luckily all she felt was too tired to stay awake. Xing was playing with the flame of the candle by her side.
Prince Kang who was learning Guyu language from her was doing an exercise she had made for him to translate a passage from their language to the Guyu language, sitting across the table from her .
He said he is going to bring the Guyu language back to their court and even asked to send some teacher from their kingdom to their kingdom to teach them the language. Also there seemed to be a hidden stash of books in the Guyu language maintained perfectly. Xing took a look at those books and most of them are those she already read and she even helped them by writing two of the books she already read that was completing a collection speaking about the formation of their kingdom.
Xing was in deep thoughts wondering about everything happening around her and an unprecedented fear filled her heart. She might have such fear before but those times Chenglei would be there with her and without her saying a word, his gentle hugs and kisses would give her incomprehensible strength.
But now...
Since she could not contact the great gods she’s been asking around some other gods about Chenglei’s chest pain but no one knew anything as they felt like there won’t be any good reason for him to have pain unless he fakes it.
Xing also asked all the best doctors in the Fire Kingdom to take a look at him and they couldn’t find anything wrong in his body too.
Could he be really faking it? If so, why? In the past, even when he faced a lot of struggles he was so confident and brave and he even encouraged me! What happened to him?
She also asked one of the oldest and best physician about her sickness but all he did was shake his head.
"There is no medicine in this realm or any realm that would heal you"
That old physician was in great pain to reveal that to her but that was nothing compared to what she felt. That wound that was festering deep in her heart was pierced with another jab, deep enough to hurt her again all over.
Should I let him go? Will he be fine after I leave him?
