1457 This Child Had Finally Grown Up

Man Li had used words to hurt her today. There was no guarantee a second Man Li would not appear the next day.

Jier was still young and did not understand Man Lis words, but what would happen after a few years?

Would Jier be able to take it if she heard the same words again then?

He could not let those dirty words sully Jier.

Lil Qi, youre thinking too far ahead. Man Li was just an unhappy accident, Long Yang frowned and said.

There is no guarantee that a second Man Li would not appear. I dont want another accident like this to happen. There was murder in Chu Qis eyes and he was determined about this.

Long Yang knew he was right as Long Yang did not wish for Jier to be hurt too.

It was quite a while before he finally spoke, Give me some time to consider this.

Chu Qi frowned. Master, if you dont agree to this, Ill resign! With that, he took out his token of authority and flung it to the ground.

The look on Long Yangs face changed. His eyes narrowed. How dare you threaten me!

A bitter smile appeared on Chu Qis cold, handsome face. His dark eyes narrowed slightly. Master has no lack of talented men working for you. It wont make any difference if Im here or not. Nothing will change for you, but I brought up Princess Jier. The one thing I wish most is for her not to get hurt and I believe Master wishes the same for her.

Long Yang was silent for quite a while before finally sighing. He asked exasperatedly, When do you plan to leave?

If its possible, Ill leave right now, Chu Qi said softly.

Long Yang was a little astonished. Arent you saying goodbye to Jier?

Its not necessary. I hope Master would be able to keep this to yourself for now. I believe Jier would be able to accept this with an open heart when she finds out about it after a while. Chu Qi was actually not entirely sure when he said this.

Jier had cried so sadly the last time when he moved out of the Palace. This time, he was leaving the imperial capital. She would be even more upset than the last time.

However, he had to do this.

Long Yang knew how Jier was too.

He could only sigh when he heard Chu Qis words. If Jier could accept this so easily, you wouldnt have to travel all the way to the West Water Frontier.

Jier is already nine. I dont need to be the one by her side. Someone else can do that too. Chu Qi sounded a little cold.

Theres nothing more I can say. I can only let you endure this for the sake of Jier. Long Yang had no choice but to let Chu Qi go for Jiers sake.

Thank you, Master. Chu Qi kowtowed to him and said seriously, I hope youll take good care of yourself!

You should take care of yourself too. Long Yang walked out from behind his imperial table and bent over to pick up the token of authority from the ground. He placed it back into Chu Qis hand and helped him off the floor.

Chu Qi clenched the token of authority tight in his hand and looked at his Master once more. There was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

He had lost all his memories from before and had no idea who he was nor where he came from, but Zhao Qian and the others had told him that Master had saved him. Master had brought him up and personally taught him martial arts skills.

The man in front of him was like a master and a father to him.

Chu Qis thick eyelashes fluttered down slightly as they covered the emotions in his eyes.

Long Yang felt emotional as well as he watched the young man turn to leave. He felt deeply about this.

This child had finally grown up and was able to take the world on his own.

That night, Long Yin and his two siblings went to Grand Phoenix Palace to accompany their parents for dinner.

Long Yin accompanied Long Yang for a game of Chinese chess after dinner while Yaoyao and Jier stayed with Lu Liangwei, listening to her tell interesting stories.

As he listened to his mothers gentle voice echo within the Palace, Long Yin felt peaceful. His mind was clear and acute while playing chess and every move he made was perfectly timed.

His father looked normal as usual, but from the way he made his move on the board, Long Yin could tell that his father was not in a good mood.
