1513 Underestimated Ji’er’s Effect On Him
When Ji’er saw him looking uncertain, she knew he must be allowing his imagination to run wild again.
She suddenly reached out and grabbed him by the neck, and her soft lips met his.
Chu Qi’s body stiffened.
While he was still reeling from the shock, a cunning look flashed in Ji’er’s eyes and she explored deeper into his mouth.
!!Chu Qi’s entire body clenched up as he supported himself with both his hands on either side of her, trying to avoid pressing down on Ji’er.
However, he had underestimated Ji’er’s effect on him.
It was not long before his forehead was covered in beaded sweat and he found it a little difficult to think clearly.
Chu Qi quickly backed away. He was unable to control himself when faced with Ji’er being this way.
He quickly stood up. “Have a good rest, Ji’er. I’ll be taking my leave now.”
Ji’er was about to call out to him when he left quickly, looking like he was making a flurried escape.
The sight of him like this made Ji’er burst out in laughter.
Lil Qi was so adorable!
That night during the Lantern Festival, Long Yang and Lu Liangwei planned to have fun outside the Palace, and they decided to bring their three children along.
Ji’er was overjoyed to learn that she was allowed to go out.
Since Lil Qi expressed his feelings for her to her parents, her father had prevented Lil Qi from visiting her again.
She had been sad about this for quite a while.
However, she managed to fight for the opportunity to go to West Water Frontier with Lil Qi after the Lantern Festival. The thought of being able to spend every day with Lil Qi in the future made her feel like waiting for a little more than ten days was not a difficult thing to do.
The entire family took an effort to put on disguises and pretended to be commoners to make it more convenient to have fun.
However, the moment they left the Palace gates, Ji’er was delighted to find Lil Qi waiting outside.
It looked like he had been waiting for quite a while.
When Lu Liangwei saw how happy her youngest daughter was, she said knowingly, “Go ahead, Ji’er. You should have fun with Lil Qi.”
“Thank you, Mother.” Ji’er tried to suppress her excitement as she looked at Long Yang.
Even though her mother had agreed to it, her father had always been unhappy with Lil Qi. Now that she wanted to have fun with Lil Qi, she still hoped to hear him verbally agree to it.
Long Yang was very unwilling for his daughter to be alone with Lil Qi, but the expectant look in his daughter’s eyes made it difficult for him to voice his objection. His face fell, but he nodded. “Go ahead. Make sure to be safe.”
“Thank you, Father.” Ji’er was ecstatic. She turned and immediately ran toward Chu Qi.
Chu Qi held onto her and gave a nod to the Emperor and Empress. After that, he took her hand and they left.
Long Yang noticed this and he immediately looked upset. They had not even gotten engaged. How could they be holding hands?
They had crossed the line!
Lu Liangwei noticed his moodiness and she said with a laugh. “That’s enough. You shouldn’t be so harsh with them.”
Long Yang was even more unhappy when he heard that. “If I was being harsh, I wouldn’t have allowed them to meet tonight at all.”
Lu Liangwei rolled her eyes. “Alright, you’re the wisest of them all. Let’s go, I want to see the lanterns.” With that, she held Yaoyao’s hand and headed for the streets.
When Long Yang saw this, he went forward and pulled Yaoyao’s hand out of Lu Liangwei’s. He placed Yaoyao’s hand in Long Yin’s and instructed, “Take care of your sister. There are a lot of people in front.”
“Yes, Father,” Long Yin answered with a raised eyebrow.
As expected, he saw his father hold his mother’s hand right after that.
Both siblings looked at each other and laughed.
There were times when their father acted like a child.
It was not long before they b.u.mped into Beitang You and his entourage.
Both parties greeted each other.
“Great Shang’s Lantern Festival is much grander and bustling with more people than the one we have in the Yan Kingdom,” Beitang You said with a smile.
Yaoyao darted a look at him. For some reason, she really did not like this person.
He looked polite and elegant, but dished out flattery very easily. He was such a brown-noser.
Beitang You noticed her unfriendly look and was taken aback. He touched his face. “Is there something on my face?”
