Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart
Chapter 1443 He Was Willing To Revolve His Life Around Ji’er’sLong Yang realized with astonishment that Ji'er's dependency on Lil Qi was not as simple as he thought. Her feelings for Lil Qi clearly included a sort of possessiveness.
This recognition overwhelmed Long Yang, which made him anxious and frustrated. However, as he watched his youngest daughter, whom he had let down before, he was unable to say anything harsh to her. This was especially when she was sobbing with tears pouring down her face. All that was left in his heart, was heartache.
However, he had already seen her unusual feelings for Lil Qi. If he allowed this to go on, it would only end up hurting her in the end.
That was why he had no choice but to harden his heart no matter how much it pained him.
He tried to adjust his tone as he said, "Ji'er, Lil Qi would be getting married soon. It would not be appropriate for him to continue living in the Palace. Moreover, he has earned great merit in the battle at Southern Xinjiang and I have bestowed him with a mansion. It's only reasonable for him to move out of the Palace."
"Why would it not be appropriate? Uncle Chu Yi and his family live in the Palace, don't they?" Ji'er said quickly, unwilling to back down.
"Lil Qi is in a different situation from Uncle Chu Yi," Long Yang said. He felt a slight headache coming on.

"Lil Qi is choosing to leave the Palace," Long Yang said matter-of-factly.
Ji'er turned and looked at Chu Qi expectantly, "Can't you not leave the Palace?"
Chu Qi clenched his fists and his eyes closed slightly. It was as if he did not notice the hope and sadness in her expression. He said without giving any hope to her, "I've made my decision and His Majesty has approved. I hope…you'll accept it, Princess."
Ji'er's eyes widened and she gave him a hurt look.
Long Yang frowned as he looked at Chu Qi.
How would Ji'er, who was always so dependent on him, take it with such a distant tone from him?
He was about to say something when Chu Qi suddenly turned to look at him to say, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
Long Yang was wise enough to immediately understand the reason for Chu Qi suddenly deciding to leave the Palace and keeping his distance from Ji'er.
He was doing this for Ji'er's own good.
Long Yang was silent for a while before saying to Zhao Qian and the others, "Since Lil Qi is moving out of the Palace, you should all give him some help with it."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Qian and the others replied respectfully.
Ji'er looked at Long Yang in disbelief and blamed him for this. "How could you agree to Lil Qi's request, Father?"
Long Yang sighed and caressed her head as he said, "Be reasonable, Ji'er. Lil Qi has his own life to live. He can't be with you all the time."
There were still tears on Ji'er's face as she looked at him in a slight daze.
Why would Lil Qi insist on living his life and move away from the Palace to be far away from her?

Chu Qi was at the door when he heard Long Yang's words and he pressed his lips.
If it was possible, he was willing to revolve his life around Ji'er's.
However, Ji'er had grown up and he could not be close to her as he did when she was young. He believed it would be soon before she would no longer need him.
A sad look flashed in his dark eyes and he quickly left the imperial study.
When Yaoyao saw Ji'er run toward the imperial study, she immediately informed Lu Liangwei about it.
By the time both mother and daughter arrived, they saw Chu Qi walk away in loneliness with his back facing them.
Lu Liangwei wanted to call out to him but decided not to do so on second thought.
When they walked into the imperial study, they saw Ji'er crying her heart out in Long Yang's arms.
This pained Lu Liangwei as she quickly went forward and pulled Ji'er into a hug from Long Yang's arms. She wiped Ji'er's face with a handkerchief. "Why is my Ji'er crying again? Did your father bully you?"
Long Yang, "…"
