Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

Long Yang understood this but he still did not feel happy about it. "How could you accept this so openly, Lil Qi's age…"

Lu Liangwei darted him a look and interrupted him brusquely. "Are you telling me that you think his age is an issue?"

Age was a touchy topic with Long Yang and because he had no solid reason to stand by this, she could only shut his mouth embarrassingly after her retort.

Lu Liangwei grunted. "If I have something to say about this, I'd say that Ji'er's temperament is exactly like yours."

"What do you mean by that?" Long Yang felt he was being wrongly accused.

"Who was the one who shamelessly insisted on marrying me all those years ago? You knew very well how old I was but it didn't matter to you. The way Ji'er is chasing after Lil Qi is exactly like what you did back then. I think you've forgotten about it, which is why you're now unhappy about how old Lil Qi is." Lu Liangwei could not help laying all of this out.

Long Yang, "…"

He was indeed on the losing side at the mention of age. To prevent her from using his age as a weapon, he quickly changed the topic. "Age aside, it's still true that Ji'er had been brought up by Lil Qi. Based on this alone, Lil Qi and Ji'er could very well be father and daughter."

At this point, Lu Liangwei sighed as well. "That's true. It's probably the main reason why this is bothering Lil Qi. He might not be able to get over himself for this. I'm worried that Lil Qi would still be unable to accept Ji'er after everything she has done for him. If that happened, what would happen to Ji'er? She would be so heartbroken." This was what worried Lu Liangwei the most.

Long Yang was silent because he knew how stubborn Lil Qi was. Ji'er had been brought up by him and for him to accept someone who was like his daughter to become his wife was very difficult.

He felt that he still owed Ji'er. When it came to this daughter, Long Yang had always felt conflicted as he loved her deeply. He hoped that she would live her entire life without worry.

"I hope Lil Qi would be able to accept Ji'er with an open heart. This way, Ji'er would have happiness," Lu Liangwei said sincerely. The greatest wish of parents would be for their children to be able to live happily.

From her point of view, age was no issue, just like she and His Majesty.

His Majesty was also much older than she was, but there was no gap between them as they got along very well.

His Majesty was also always letting her have her way in life and doted on her greatly, which made her happy enough.

"If Ji'er really does like Lil Qi that much, I'll send out an edict for Lil Qi to marry Ji'er. That way, she doesn't need to suffer by chasing him all the way to the South Conquering General Mansion." Long Yang suddenly decided. Rather than allow his daughter to forgo her status and become a maidservant, it would be better to announce the edict for Lil Qi to be his son-in-law.

Lu Liangwei knew he was worried about Ji'er and was distracted the entire day.

"We have no idea how Lil Qi feels about all of this. If he doesn't want to marry Ji'er and you forced him with your edict, Lil Qi would not disobey you, but this would leave a negative mark on him."

"Marriage isn't something that should be forced. I feel that it's better for them to develop their feelings naturally rather than force things between them. Even though Ji'er might get hurt, we have to remember that life is never smooth and things would be bound to get rocky. It's also time for Ji'er to grow up after going through this."

Long Yang knew she was right, but…

"Long Xuan and Lin Qingyuan did not like each other back then too, but they're now quite happy together."

"Their situation is different compared to Ji'er and Lil Qi. There's nothing to compare between them. If Ji'er wasn't brought up by Lil Qi and their age gap wasn't this big, there wouldn't be any problem, but unfortunately, this is the reality." Lu Liangwei sighed.
