1460 She Would Be Able To Marry Chu Qi

At this thought, she reached up to her cousins shoulder to touch her face.

However, she noticed that the person in front of her was much taller than she was and Lu Xue could not help wondering when did her cousin grow so tall.

She reached up for quite a while before finally being able to touch her face.

Lu Xue continued moving her hand upward and she burst out with a laugh when she did not feel any red mole. She said confidently, You must be Cousin Yaoyao. She pulled the handkerchief off her eyes while speaking.

Long Yin looked at her and smiled, How do you do, Cousin Xueer?

Lu Xue was surprised and looked at him with slight astonishment. She quickly bowed after snapping out of it. Greetings to you, Cousin Long Yin.

There is no need for such formalities. Long Yin helped her up.

Yaoyao and Jier came closer to them and said while chuckling, You didnt manage to make the right guess, Xueer. You need to be blindfolded again.

Lu Xue looked at the three of them, feeling slightly defeated. But I really cant guess it right.

How about if Ill be the blind this round. Long Yin helped her out.

Are you willing to be blindfolded, Royal Brother? Jier looked at him, wide-eyed.

Her Royal Brother had never played such games with them while growing up.

Long Yin looked at his sisters adorable reaction and he reached out to rub her head. Yes.

Lu Xue was happy not to be blindfolded this time and she stood with her two female cousins.

However, no matter where she stood, Cousin Long Yin could always catch her accurately.

In the end, she felt a little upset. Why are you always catching me, Cousin Long Yin?

Thats right. Jier and I are starting to feel like dcor, Yaoyao said in a slightly bored tone.

Thats because both of you are the same height and Xueer is easier to recognize as she is shorter than you are, Long Yin explained calmly.

Is that true? Jier was doubtful.

Of course, Long Yin replied with a smile. He held Lu Xues hand. Its noontime now. Lets go have our lunch.

Yaoyao held Jiers hand while watching her Royal Brother and Cousin Xueer walk in front of them. She pouted and said, Jier, dont you think that Royal Brother treats Xueer better than us?

I do. It must be because Xueer needs to be taken care of, Jier replied like a little adult.

Alright. You must be right. Xueer does require taking care of more than we do. Yaoyao shrugged.

Time pa.s.sed quite fast. It was Lunar New Years eve in a blink of an eye.

Grand Phoenix was lively that night. Jier used the excuse of feeling a little tired and returned to Auspicious Palace.

She changed her clothes and pulled Zhan Qings hand as they left the Palace.

Zhan Qing initially did not want to give in to Third Princess, but Third Princess kept begging her, and this softened Zhan Qings heart enough to relent.

It was snowing a few days before, but the freezing weather could not stop the joyful festivity of the Lunar New Year.

However, while every family was filled with a happy, celebratory atmosphere, the South Conquering General Mansion was filled with emptiness and loneliness.

Zhan Qing flew across roofs and walls while taking Jier along with her, and they entered the South Conquering General Mansion.

Even though Chu Qi had left for the West Water Fronter, Long Yang had retained the South Conquering General Mansion for Chu Qi.

Besides Steward Chen and a few other servants, the others were let go.

The huge South Conquering General Mansion was deserted and lonely.

Zhan Qing retreated after bringing Jier into Chu Qis room.

Jier stayed in the room alone for quite a long time.

She did not cry this time when Lil Qi left, but when she looked at the room, which retained the memory of Lil Qi, Jier could no longer hold back her tears as they began to flow freely from her eyes.

Lil Qi was always right by her side when she was younger. Why did he distance himself when she grew up?

She did not understand this.

Jier hated growing up, yet she could not wait to grow up.

It was because she would be able to marry Lil Qi after she had grown up.

She sat on Chu Qis bed for quite a while and in the end, wiped away her tears with her sleeve and left the room decisively.
