Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart - Chapter 1481

1481 Chu Qi Did Not Dare To Make Any Movements

However, if things ended up that way, Lil Qi would become her life’s regret.

She would probably never be happy again.

Faced with her mother’s concerned look, Ji’er nodded in the end. “I promise you, Mother.”

Lu Liangwei rubbed her head tenderly. “It’s good that we’ve talked this through. Let’s go. We should go to the imperial garden and accompany your father to admire the plum blossoms.”

!!
“Alright.”

They held hands as they walked to the imperial garden.

Beitang You was there when they arrived.

When he saw Lu Liangwei coming, he immediately went forward to give her a new year’s greeting.

Lu Liangwei smiled as she looked at the handsome young man in front of her. “Youyou, we haven’t seen each other for so many years. I almost didn’t recognize you when we met again yesterday.”

Beitang You replied sincerely, “Sister Empress, you’re just as beautiful as before. No, I should say you’re even more beautiful than I remembered.”

Being praised would greatly improve a person’s mood, and Lu Liangwei was no exception. She immediately felt cheerful and could not stop smiling, but her reaction made Long Yang look over from the corner of his eyes.

That rascal, Beitang You, really knew how to sweet-talk his way around!

“You sure know your compliments, Youyou.” Lu Liangwei did not notice Long Yang and patted Beiyang You happily on the shoulder.

“I’m just being honest,” Beitang You said sincerely as a smile appeared on his lips.

He was not exaggerating. Sister Empress had always been beautiful and she still looked so young after so many years. Time had not treated her badly. Besides looking more mature than before, she still retained the same beauty she had before.

As Beitang You was thinking about this, he suddenly sensed a hostile gaze on him.

He turned toward the direction of it and met Long Yang’s unhappy eyes staring at him. Beitang You was taken aback and quickly said, “Your Majesty is equally valiant and gallant, a perfect match from heaven for Sister Empress.”

Long Yang looked slightly happier when he heard this. At least the rascal knew the right words to say.

Lu Liangwei secretly laughed at this.

His Majesty was such a child!

Yaoyao gave Beitang You a look of slight disdain from the side.

She had never thought that the Emperor from the Yan Kingdom would be so glib!

Yaoyao pursed her lips as she found him a little distasteful.

When Beitang You looked over, he caught the distaste in her eyes.

He was taken aback and rubbed his nose, wondering how he had offended the Second Princess. She did not seem… to like him very much.

…

As Ji’er had Lu Liangwei’s support, Long Yang did not question anything more about what was going on between Ji’er and Lil Qi.

With Lu Liangwei’s silent consent, Ji’er entered the South Conquering General Mansion as a maidservant.

Chu Qi had just woken up when Ji’er changed her clothes and entered his room.

He was stunned to see Ji’er walk in. “What are you doing here?” The memory of what happened the night before made him feel a little embarrassed, but his attention was quickly diverted to what she was wearing. He frowned. “Why are you wearing that?”

Ji’er put down what she was carrying and said softly, “You got hurt because of me. I have to take responsibility.”

“It had nothing to do with you. I deserved it.” Chu Qi closed his dark eyes. How could he blame her for what happened that night? She was still a child and he did not practice enough self-restraint. He should have pushed her away sooner.

The memory of that night made him feel quite ashamed.

Ji’er said nothing, but merely walked to the side of his bed. She reached out her hand, but Chu Qi immediately turned away to avoid her.

When Ji’er saw this, her fingers froze in place. She pressed her lips and said unhappily, “Why are you avoiding me? I just want to check if you still have a fever.” With that, she placed her palm on his clean forehead without giving him a chance to protest.

Chu Qi’s body stiffened.

The light and unique scent of a woman filled his nostrils and he did not dare to make any movements.

He was no stranger to Ji’er’s scent.

However, she was still young then and he did not take special notice of it. It could also be possible that she was too young at the time, and the scent of her body was not as strong.
