(224) Young master in a wheelchair
"Hi, Master William, it's a pleasure to meet you." The Edgar princess held out her hand in a friendly manner.
The boy shook her hand: "Hey, Princess Edgar, thank your friend Philip for pushing me up, my arm is just running low."
Sitting in a wheelchair is a noble son who wears highly myopic glasses and is polite.
He was the only son of Marquis Dali Einfurt, the Elector of the Valstad Empire, William Einfurt II, and was an alumnus of the National Military Academy with the princes and princesses.
Due to a fall on horseback and injured his spine, he was unconscious in his leg and had to rely on a wheelchair to move with difficulty.
Edgar clearly had a good affection for Young Master William, and she enjoyed talking to this noble man, and liked to listen to him tell him strange things in books, and she felt close to him for no reason.
"Greetings to your father, Lord Marquis DalΓ, how is he lately?"
"My father...... He ......" Young Master William lowered his head and said depressedly: "My father is still the same, drunk and dreaming of death.
He could not get out of the haze of divorce, he was drunk, more drunk than sober, and just yesterday he threw up as soon as he entered, and then went to the bathroom with the help of our butler Constein.
Well, then, he threw up again on the bald head of our poor butler, and when he had bathed he still didn't wake up, and dragged me to babble and swear to remarry my mother, but you know, that was impossible. β
"Hey...... I'm so sorry! William, it's all my fault, I mentioned the sad matter of your family, forget it! A little high-minded!
William, how inconvenient it is that you came by yourself and didn't even bring a servant! β
Young Master William scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly:
Edgar...... I know that my actions are a bit reckless, even stupid, and that is the work of my ridiculous shame.
I want to show that I, William Einfoot II, am free to move without relying on anyone else.
It's true that I'm disabled, but I'm not disabled...... I was eager to prove that I was capable of taking care of myself. β
"Hey! My poor good friend! A look of pity appeared on Edgar's face, and he said:
"I understand all of yours...... No one wants to be in a wheelchair and be pushed around by others, if I am thrown like you, I will be suffocated to death!
One more thing, William, I've always liked to see your hands, white and tender, like a pianist, and you're always turning your own wheelchair like this, and you're going to wear out your pretty hands! β
"It doesn't matter, although I am disabled, but after all, I am a boy, and the rough hands are more proof that I am not pampered.
You're different, Edgar, you're a girl, but you don't know how to protect your skin, your slender and slender hands are full of calluses, I suggest you don't chop wood, and the number of combat training should be appropriately reduced. β
"Thank you for your concern, but I don't want to change myself, I'm fine now!" Edgar spread his hands, made a helpless look, and said:
"Anyway, I'm a fake son with a weird personality, and I will definitely not be able to marry in the future, and the head of any big noble family is unwilling to accept a daughter-in-law who dances with a knife and a gun, so I don't care, just be sloppy!" She dug her nostrils again, and then wiped the boogers onto her pants.
Young Master William had a different opinion: "Edgar, you are just too lazy to dress up, if you are willing to spend a little time and let the servants put on makeup for you, and then put on those beautiful lace dresses, take a shower after each exercise, or spray some perfume to cover the smell of sweat, and welcome... Stop picking your nostrils, in that case......"
At this point, Young Master William suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stopped his mouth.
"Don't be shy, young master, what if I do what you do?" Edgar laughed.
"If you really listen to my advice, in that case...... Well...... Edgar, I don't know if that's appropriate.
I think if you dress up a little, there will be a lot of noble boy suitors...... Even a foreign prince has come to see you! They'll all be lining up to find you on a date! β
"Haha, do you think so highly of me? To tell you the truth, don't look at me as sloppy, in fact, there are still suitors. It's just that the number of suitors is much smaller than that of my pretty old lady.
What about you? William, will you ask me out alone? When we grow up, will you propose to me? β
This question embarrassed the thin-skinned Young Master William, and the boy's face suddenly turned red to the base of his neck.
Edgar looked a little impatient:
"Hey, you guy, you are really, how do you squirm like a girl! If you like it, you can like it, and it doesn't matter if you don't like it!
Your father, the Marquis of DalΓ, was a great hero in the Founding War! Your mother, Lady Janening, is also a person who has made significant contributions to the country! As their only child, you are destined to be a big man in the future!
Take courage, William! Have a little confidence in yourself! β
William sensed that the other party was looking at him with eager eyes.
He had always felt that Princess Edgar's lilac eyes were both beautiful and disturbing, more or less cold.
But now, William felt that faint purple was embracing him, quite heartwarming.
He plucked up courage and said:
"Hmm...... I've thought about it...... Edgar, even if you don't dress up, I'm willing to ask you out to hang out, because we're good friends who talk about everything and grow up together! β
"Hahahaha! Ahem, ahem! β
Edgar almost burst out laughing, laughing so hard that he coughed: "Good friend? That's your thoughtful answer? What childishness! No wonder you don't have girls around! The whole person gnaws on books! β
"It's not fair! I poured out my heart to you, but you laughed at me! William Einfoot II was a little upset, and his brow furrowed.
Edgar grabbed the handle of the wheelchair and shook it, trying to coax him to be happy:
"Alright, alright, Master William! Don't be mad at me!
It seems that you are just like my second brother Konstanz, who is ignorant of the world and is immersed in studying, you are all nerds!
And I'm pretty much the same, I'm a savage princess that no one dares to ask for and can't marry.
We are a group of hopeless freaks and aliens in the eyes of others, and because of this, we are the best friends, and we keep each other warm, right? William? β
"Of course! We will never be separated and be good friends for life!
Well, there's one thing I have to correct, your second brother Konstanz and I aren't nerds, we're just hungry for knowledge!
We never cause trouble to others, and it seems to us that those ignorant fools who do not read are ridiculous, and they dare to unite to laugh at us scholars! β
"Wow! How dare you call me a fool! Look at this girl, I won't strangle you today! β
Princess Edgar pinched William's cheek hard.
"Oops! Pain, pain, pain! Stop it! You savage woman! William covered his face and howled his sword in pain
