Chapter 62: CHAPTER 62: I want to be with you
"Are you... Ningguang? Why are you so thin? Wait a minute, mom will cook for you now."
"Mom, mom!!"
Ningguang looked at the beautiful woman in front of her in disbelief. After applying healing magic for the eighth time, his mother, who was in a coma, opened her eyes again.
She had the illusion that she was dreaming, so she pinched her little hand tightly, and the obvious pain made Ningguang instantly shed tears.
This is not a dream!
This is not a dream!
My mother woke up and her illness must have been cured!
"Mom, you're finally okay."
"Ah! You, you silly girl, have suffered so much. Mom is sorry for you."
Ningguang's mother also noticed that her body hadn't felt relaxed for who knows how long. The illness that tortured her and brought her family down was no longer there.
Tears also fell from the woman's eyes.
She felt no joy, only sadness.
Her husband had passed away a long time ago, so she didn't dare think about how much her daughter had sacrificed to heal her. Just imagining this made her feel so desolate that she wanted to vomit blood.
"Woo, how good, so touching."
"Nee-san, you're ruining the mood."
"But it's so touching!"
Leon and Anis sat next to them.
The latter's eyes were also watering and she was wiping her face with her skirt. Although the first one wasn't that exaggerated, there was still some tenderness in his eyes.
What a scene of maternal love and daughter's love. Although she didn't admit it, Leon felt that her little effort was now worth it.
Then an idea occurred to him: he wanted to see more of this.
Decided.
[After I return, I will discuss with my father to promote the surgical skills from my previous life. No, I need to make some improvements before I can promote them. It's better to integrate medicine and magic and give it the same name as magic.]
[Then let's call it magical medicine. Well, it's much easier on the ear.]
"Your Highness, thank you for saving my mother. Although it is very small, please accept it."
Just when Leon was thinking about what to call medicine in this world, Ningguang also temporarily left his mother's arms.
With tears of gratitude, the white-haired girl handed the gold coins she had worked hard to accumulate day and night into Leon's hands.
But that wasn't enough to express his gratitude. However, when Ningguang wanted to continue saying something... questions mixed with anger emerged.
"there is?"
"Your Highness?"
"Hey, what does that mean?"
Leon frowned as he looked at the gold coins in his hand. Each of the shiny gold coins was soaked in Ningguang's hard work.
But he hit the table hard.
It clicked!
Just like the judge's gavel, Ningguang looked like a frightened deer.
She met many people when she sold things, but no one was ever as irritable, kind, domineering and elusive as this prince.
Ningguang didn't know what to do. She only knew that she would never be able to bear Leon's anger.
"Yes, is it too little? I'm sorry, Your Highness. I will find a solution immediately."
"!!!"
Instead of calming down, his brows furrowed even more, and Ningguang knelt down trembling in fear.
The same goes for his mother in bed, who is trying to drag his newly healed body to kneel before Leon.
However, he was held back by a pair of hands.
"Oh seriously, take that back."
"Your Highness..."
"I am the prince of this kingdom, and it is my natural responsibility to save your lives. This is not something money can intervene in, and..."
Len dragged Ning Guang with one hand and her mother with the other, lifted the mother and daughter off the ground, and returned the girl's hard-earned money.
"Your mother was just healed and is still very weak. Save the money to buy food and supplements for her. The same goes for you."
"......"x2
The white-haired mother and daughter looked at the boy blankly,
He is obviously so young.
But so mature.
Even the reason for being angry just now was just Ningguang's behavior of giving money, which inadvertently hurt Leon's dignity, but there was also tenderness in it.
Anis beside him smiled, and she knew that was the case. His brother was prouder than anyone and kinder than anyone.
After that, Leon gave some common sense tips from his previous life, such as drinking more hot water, eating more fruits, and not catching colds.
Then he prepared to return to the royal capital with Anis.
However, Ningguang walked alone. The girl seemed to have made some decision, her eyes were steady.
"Your Highness, please stay. Although I know it is shameful to say such words to you who saved my mother, but..."
"Let's be honest, what's going on?"
"I-I want to be with you."
Ningguang said through gritted teeth.
Her mother's illness was cured, and although it seemed like her family had been saved, she was smart enough to know that she had other crises.
This is what Ningguang looks like...
In this world, it's good for a noble family's daughter to be pretty, but if a commoner family's daughter is too pretty... it spells more disaster.
Therefore, in the past, to avoid trouble and danger, Ningguang always covered his face with dust and pretended to be an ugly duckling.
But today she exposed her true appearance in public.
Some people may find it surprising, but the evil of this age is so frightening.
This is an unquestionable crisis for mother and daughter. They are afraid that someone will find them the day after Leon leaves.
There is no man to trust in the family, only a young daughter and a woman who has just recovered from a serious illness. Furthermore, they have no power, no wealth and are extremely beautiful.
Not to mention the human traffickers hiding in the dark, I'm afraid that even the beggars on the streets are like wolves who have smelled the meat and are keeping an eye on this dilapidated hut.
