Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart



He shut his eyes after a while and tucked her in snugly under the covers.

When Ji'er saw this, she was unsure if she felt disappointed or relieved.

However, she could not help tugging on his sleeve and asking, "Don't you want me?"

Chu Qi pursed his lips tight. He desired her. He wanted to take her no matter what.

However, he had to hold back.

At the very least, he could only have her after their wedding.

"Don't you like me?" Ji'er's pretty eyes darkened when she saw him being quiet.

She had never been a very likable person; few people looked forward to meeting her. Was Lil Qi starting to find her annoying?

Chu Qi saw the hollow look in her eyes and his heart ached for her. He knew she was just allowing her imagination to run wild again. He quickly pulled her into a tight embrace and leaned his chin against her forehead. "I desire you. Why wouldn't I? You're only saying these things because you're not in a good spot right now. You might regret it once you wake up tomorrow."

Ji'er got anxious when she heard this. "I'm being serious. It's not a rash reaction. Even if… even if….we did it, I would never regret it."

Chu Qi could not help bursting into gentle laughter when he saw her this way. He nuzzled the top of her head with his chin. "Yes, I know you won't regret it, but I want our first time to be on our wedding night. I only want my Ji'er to have a wonderful experience."

Ji'er's pretty eyes widened and she looked at him in slight surprise.

Chu Qi raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?"

When Ji'er realized her reaction, her face turned completely red. "Why are you…"

"What's wrong with me?" Chu Qi could not help teasing her when he saw how red she was.

Ji'er bit her lip and looked at him shyly. "You've changed." The man was quite naughty now.

Chu Qi sighed quietly and hugged her firmly around the shoulders. "My feelings for you will never change."

Ji'er leaned into his arms and her little hands circled around his waist. She mumbled, "I'm lucky to have you by my side."

Chu Qi rubbed her head. "Ji'er, I'm not the only one you have. You still have your family. They love you very much too."

Ji'er pursed her lips slightly and said nothing for a long time.

Chu Qi hugged her quietly and remained silent as well.

"Lil Qi, there must be a reason they said those things," Ji'er suddenly blurted. "I know I shouldn't doubt my father, but I have a feeling what they said was true."

A murderous look flashed in Chu Qi's eyes.

After Tong'er had explained the situation to him, he immediately gave orders to search the entire mansion for the two gossipy servants.

He would get rid of anything or anyone that made Ji'er unhappy.

"Ji'er, how do you think your parents treat you?" Chu Qi changed the topic and posed a different question to the girl, who looked like she was at a loss.

Ji'er paused before answering. "My parents have treated me very well as far as I could remember. They treat me even better than Royal Brother and Yaoyao, but I wasn't very close to them when I was younger. I still remember how I refused to sleep with them when I was small and you would always stay with me in the side hall. I don't understand why I behaved like that. It's like I'm rejecting Father deep inside my heart."

She lifted her head to look at him with a befuddled expression as she spoke. "Why am I like this? I disliked it when Father came near me, and I depended on you so much and only wanted your company. Logically, that shouldn't have happened. Yaoyao and I were born at the same time, but Yaoyao enjoys spending time with Father. It should be the same with me, but it's not. Deep inside of me, I even fear Father a little."

Chu Qi's heart ached for her. He comforted her gently. "Every person is different and their perspective on people and things in life would be different too. You shouldn't let your thoughts run wild. If your father finds out about this, how sad would he be?"
