As soon as the word Xiao Qi was mentioned, Jill's heart filled with worry, she buried her face in Chang's arms, and said with a bad temper: "Xiao Qi will not feel sorry for me..."
"What are you talking about? Xiaoqi has always only cared about you in this world." Chang said softly.
"Then why didn't he come to me?" Jill said angrily, wiping her tears.
"He searched for you separately from me, but I didn't expect that I found you first. Let's go back first." Mrs. Chang coaxed in a gentle voice, holding the little girl in her arms and walking towards Jiqing Palace.
When passing Xiao Qi's dormitory, Jill paused.
Mrs. Chang noticed it and asked, "Would you like to go over and talk to Xiao Qi?"
"No!" Jill said forcefully, pushed Mrs. Chang away and ran back to the dormitory.
Mrs. Chang sighed and walked directly to Chu Qi's door, "Xiao Qi, Jill is back."
Chu Qi walked out, glanced in the direction of Ji'er's bedroom, and said nothing.
Chang endured it and asked, "Did you say something to her? She lost her temper."
Mrs. Chang is also very familiar with Ji'er's temper. On weekdays, Ji'er doesn't lose her temper easily. Although she is not as lively as Princess Yaoyao, she is really well-behaved.
But when it comes to the seventh day of the lunar month, it's like firecrackers.
"It's nothing, you take good care of her." Chu Qi said, then turned and returned to the house.
Mrs. Chang had no choice but to go to Ji'er's bedroom and help her wash and sleep.
Chu Qi has been standing by the window, looking in the direction of Ji'er's bedroom.
Until the lights in her bedroom dimmed.
Thinking of the little girl who had a tantrum just now, Chu Qi felt unspeakable.
He stood for a while longer, guessing that she was probably asleep, and then he left the house and entered her bedroom.
Looking at the little man huddled up on the bed, Chu Qi sighed silently.
Although he made up his mind to alienate her, he still couldn't help but think about her, for fear that she wouldn't sleep well or kicked the quilt off.
He leaned over and tucked her in the quilt. Just as he was about to leave, his wrist was caught.
When he was startled, he saw that the person who was originally sleeping had opened his eyes.
In the darkness, her eyes were particularly bright.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Chu Qi asked softly, reaching out to pry her hand away.
"I'm waiting for you." Jill said in a soft voice, with a hint of cunning in her beautiful eyes.
The fingers were spread apart, and she immediately wrapped them around them again.
Chu Qi had nothing to do with her, so he simply let her go.
"It's so late and you won't sleep. What are you waiting for me to do?"
Jill was a little sad and a little aggrieved, "You were so cruel to me just now."
"I wasn't mean to you." Chu Qi said helplessly.
"You have it." Jill pouted and said in a playful manner, "As a punishment, you will not be allowed to sleep tonight, and you will have to watch over me all the time."
"Okay." Chu Qi nodded and agreed without hesitation.
Jill was stunned for a moment, and then turned away angrily.
What she actually wanted to say was that he was not allowed to have a wife.
But he is right, how can people not get married
Xiaoqi is already in her twenties, and it’s really time to get married and have children.
But why was she so sad when she heard that he was getting married
Her nose felt sore, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye. She rubbed the pillow, and the tears were annihilated in the pillow towel and disappeared without a trace.
How could she, who was raised by Chu Qi, not know what she was thinking
But she has grown up and will get married and have children in the future. He should avoid suspicion as soon as possible.
He sat on the edge of the bed and heard her soft breathing in the darkness. Knowing that she was asleep at this time, he did not get up and leave.
He promised her to guard her.
Chu Qi sat alone until dawn. Seeing that she was still sleeping, he got up and left without disturbing her, and went to the imperial study room.
