Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

"Mother…" Ji'er held the teacup while her face turned red. It was difficult for her to talk about it. She hesitated for a long time before shutting her eyes and saying, "Last night, I…I kissed Lil Qi. He felt that he had crossed the line with me, so he stabbed himself with the knife. He punished himself while using his own way to reject me…" At this point, she became worried her mother would misunderstand Lil Qi. So, she quickly explained, "I was the one who initiated everything. He was forced by me…"

Lu Liangwei looked at Ji'er, slightly shocked.

She had never imagined the truth to be something like this.

Her little girl never did anything out of the ordinary. It had never crossed her mind that Ji'er could be so aggressive as to take the initiative to kiss Lil Qi.

It was not difficult to imagine how shocked Lil Qi must have felt then.

She gave her daughter a weird look. Lu Liangwei felt that she was a coward when compared to Ji'er.

While thinking like this did not seem appropriate, Lu Liangwei also felt that Ji'er had shown a completely different side of herself today.

Lu Liangwei gave a light cough and snapped out of her train of thought. "Lil Qi reacted quite extremely. It was just a kiss. Was it necessary to stab himself with a knife?"

"Mother?" Ji'er gave Lu Liangwei an astonished look.

Why would this be her mother's reaction?

She had thought her mother would lecture her.

"What's wrong?" Lu Liangwei asked.

Ji'er was silent.

"Don't you think I was being too immoral?" she asked embarrassedly after a while.

Lu Liangwei hugged her around the shoulders. "I don't think that. I think you were very brave."

Ji'er was relieved to hear that. She had been a little worried that her mother would berate her for acting so indecently.

Lu Liangwei paused momentarily before suddenly changing her tone. "But Ji'er, have you ever given thought to the possibility that Lil Qi might not feel the same about you?"

The look in Ji'er's eyes dimmed and she nodded. "I haven't thought about it before, but now I have. Lil Qi probably doesn't feel the same way I do about him."

Lu Liangwei gave a small sigh of relief when she heard this. "It's good that you understand this. Some things cannot be forced."

Ji'er frowned. "But Lil Qi hasn't married to this date and there is no woman by his side. I think that I have a good chance with him. If…If…"

"If what?" Lu Liangwei looked at her patiently.

"If I worked hard to win him over and Lil Qi still doesn't respond to my feelings, I'll give up." Ji'er lifted her head as she made the decision.

Lu Liangwei nodded. "If that's the way you feel, go for it. Just remember that I'll always be supporting you."

"Mother…" Ji'er's eyes turned red; she was extremely touched by this.

Lu Liangwei rubbed her head and said emotionally, "Our Ji'er really is all grown up now." Ji'er now had her own opinions and thoughts, and she could be very brave when it came to her feelings.

"But Father, he…" Ji'er was a little troubled.

"Don't worry. There won't be any problems with your father. He'll support you too. As long as it's what you want, your father would even pluck the moon out of the sky for you. Also, it's only Chu Qi," Lu Liangwei teased. "Alas, you don't want to force Chu Qi into this. Otherwise, all you need is an edict from your father and Chu Qi has no choice but to obey you."

Ji'er got a little angry with embarrassment. "Mother…"

A thought crossed Lu Liangwei's mind and she said seriously, "But you have to promise me that if Lil Qi still doesn't feel the same way about you, you need to give up, and you're not allowed to hurt yourself. You're our daughter, a girl born to royalty. You can have any man you want. There is no need for you to hurt yourself over a man."

Ji'er had thought that if Lil Qi still rejected her in the end, she would not be able to forget him no matter what. However, she would still follow her parent's wishes and marry someone else if that was the case.
