1309 All He Wanted Was To Protect Ji’er

Long Yang wrapped an arm around Lu Liangwei’s shoulders and guided her outside, not forgetting to close the doors behind them.

After they had left, Chu Qi laid Ji’er down on the bed.

He sat next to her and watched her for a moment before lying down quietly beside her.

He turned his head and stared fixedly at the baby girl with his dark eyes.

He had already known that this was a beautiful child even when he had been blind, but now that he was finally seeing her for himself, he still could not help being amazed.

As he listened to her soft breathing, fulfillment spread through him.

Even though he could not recall his past, he did not mind. All he wanted was to protect Ji’er.

The next day.

When Lu Liangwei finished speaking, Zhao Qian was convinced that he had not yet recovered from his hangover, which was why his ears had deceived him.

Otherwise, how come he heard the Empress say that Lu Tingchen was going to marry Chu Jiu?

“Your Highness, I had a bit too much to drink yesterday, and I’m not completely sober yet. Could you please repeat what you said just now?” Zhao Qian massaged his temples, his expression rueful.

Lu Liangwei chuckled. “You didn’t hear me wrong, and you weren’t hearing things either. I was telling you about my brother and Chu Jiu.”

Zhao Qian’s eyes widened in disbelief. “So I heard you right?”

“You definitely did,” Lu Liangwei said with a smile. She could understand his reaction, because she had also thought her eyes were deceiving her when she read her mother’s letter yesterday.

Her brother and Jiu’s relationship had indeed come as a bolt out of the blue.

After a moment’s hesitation, Zhao Qian could no longer hide the exhilaration on his face. “The Heir Presumptive’s taste in women is impeccable!”

Lu Liangwei, “…”

“Jiu’s pretty lucky too,” Zhao Qian added. “If I’d known earlier that this day would come, I wouldn’t have needed to stress myself out!” He heaved a sigh. Before this, he had been worried that no one would want to marry Jiu, and he had even thought of adopting a husband for her.

Who would have expected this girl to get involved with Lu Tingchen – the man born with a silver spoon in his mouth, the Empress’s brother, and the future successor to the Grand Duke’s title?
