Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

1669 Forced Himself To Hold Back



Ji'er took them from him and leaned into the flowers, smelling them gently. She lifted her head and smiled sweetly at him.

The flowers may be vibrantly beautiful, but they could not compare to the smile on her face.

Her presence would only make the flowers look dull in comparison.

Chu Qi's heart stirred. He lifted her chin and bent down slowly to kiss her on the lips.

Ji'er shuddered and the flowers in her hands fell to the ground.

After that, she shut her eyes and hugged Chu Qi around the waist.

The golden petals floated in the air, carried by the wind, and fell onto them.

It was a long time before Chu Qi released her. His arms were wrapped around her as his fingers gently tidied her long hair.

He wished Ji'er would always be happy and would never be troubled by matters of the world.

Ji'er had seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness brought by the woman. She held Chu Qi's hand and wandered into the flower field.

"I'm so happy that I met you, Lil Qi, truly. Having you in my life was the luckiest thing." Ji'er stood among the golden flowers and suddenly opened her arms wide as she shouted at Chu Qi.

Chu Qi followed behind her, watching the beautiful, nymph-like girl, and a smile appeared on his usually cold face.

"Ji'er, meeting you was also the luckiest moment in my life. You must always stay happy."

"Lil Qi, have you ever seen me dance?" Ji'er suddenly turned around and stared at Chu Qi brightly.

Chu Qi stood with one hand behind his back and shook his head with a smile.

"Would you like to see me dance for you?" Ji'er looked at him expectantly.

Chu Qi nodded and suddenly took out a flute from around his waist.

Ji'er was slightly surprised. She did not expect him to bring a flute with him.

She knew that Lil Qi knew how to play the flute and was very good at it. However, he did not play it very often.

Ji'er began dancing gracefully in the flower field while being accompanied by the flute's music.

She was like a graceful butterfly happily flying among the flowers.

Chu Qi's eyes stayed on her wherever she danced. The colors of the surroundings seemed to have faded in his deep, dark eyes—all that was left was the radiant figure of the girl.

Ji'er lay down on the flower field when she was tired from dancing.

There was a smile on her face as she watched the blue sky and white clouds, but a single teardrop fell and disappeared into the wind, quietly and unnoticeably. 

Chu Qi came to sit by her side and Ji'er lifted her head to look at him. "Lil Qi, I'm a little tired. I'd like to take a nap."

"Alright," Chu Qi replied gently. He propped her head up and placed it on his lap.

Ji'er lay down on her side and shut her eyes.

The warm sunlight bounced on her face, reflecting on her petite face and making her skin look almost translucent.

Chu Qi's hand gently patted her back. He sighed quietly. She may be smiling, but she was still disturbed.

What could he do to wipe away the pain in Ji'er's heart? What could he do to make her happy again?

Ji'er was exhausted, but when she shut her eyes and everything turned silent, that woman's cruel words burrowed into her mind like a venomous snake, biting her so hard that she felt intense pain.

She was a child that was unwanted.

Her father hated her and she disgusted him so much that he wanted her dead.

She should not have come to this world…

Ji'er sobbed quietly but she was afraid Lil Qi would be worried, so she bit down on her lips, not daring to make a sound.

Even though her sobbing was muffled, Chu Qi still managed to hear it.

When he heard her trying to suppress the sound of her sobbing, his hand, which was on his side, clenched tightly into a fist.

Eventually, Ji'er fell asleep, but there were tears on her face.

Chu Qi had spotted the tears and wanted to wipe them away for her, but he was afraid of waking her and he forced himself to hold back.

When he saw how unhappy she was, he suddenly began to blame His Majesty for this.

Even though he had lost all memories of the past, it did not look like the woman was lying based on all the clues gathered.

His Majesty had indeed tried to throw Ji'er to death all those years ago.
