1489 Dont You Dare Disturb Her

Chu Qi flinched as he heard her footsteps get further away.

After a while, he pulled off his covers and got up to walk out.

He opened the door only to see a lonely basin of water sitting next to the door.

Chu Qi stared at the basin for quite a while before bending over to carry it into his room.

The next day.

Long Yin and Yaoyao arrived at the South Conquering General Mansion to see Chu Qi. They also wanted to see how Jier was doing there.

When they saw Jier dressed in a maidservants uniform, Long Yin frowned.

Jier. His voice deepened.

Royal Brother. Jier walked over to him but suddenly felt nervous when she saw the unhappy look on his face. Whats wrong?

You Long Yin only managed one word before he found himself unable to say anything more.

He wanted to berate her, but when it came to this sister, he could not bear to be harsh.

In the end, he reached out to rub her head. Youre such a silly girl.

Yaoyao, who was at his side, said, Yes, isnt she silly? Why would she come here to be a maidservant when she could have been a princess in the Palace?

Long Yin darted her a look. Im worried about Jier being here all alone. Why dont you stay here and accompany her?

Yaoyao raised an eyebrow and said brazenly, Thats a good idea. Why not bring along Cousin Xueer too? It would be fun with all three girls together.

Long Yin choked and warned, Xueer isnt in good health. Dont you dare disturb her.

Oh ho ho, are you worried for her? Are your sisters me and Jier, or is Xueer your sister? I think youre playing extreme favoritism here. Yaoyao sn.i.g.g.e.red.

Jier was confused by this conversation. What has this got to do with Xueer?

Yaoyao winked at her quite a few times and was about to say something when Long Yin suddenly changed the topic. By the way, how is Lil Qi doing? Is he alright?

His condition has stabilized and there isnt much issue with his wounds, Jier replied.

It was at that moment that a head popped up from behind Long Yin and winked at Jier. Third Princess.

Qi Heng? What are you doing here? Jier looked at him with slight surprise.

Qi Heng walked out from behind Long Yin and said a little sadly, I wanted to give you a surprise, but you didnt even notice me.

I wont be able to see you if you hide behind Royal Brother, said Jier.

Yaoyao covered her mouth in laughter. Qi Heng, what Jier meant to say was that youre too short. You were completely hidden while standing behind my Royal Brother.

The young mans handsome face fell. Arent you being too mean with your words, Second Princess? I may not be very tall, but Im not as short as youre describing me to be either.

Jier could not help laughing as she reached out to pat him on the shoulder. She consoled him and said, You dont need to take her words to heart. Youre still young right now. You can still grow.

Yaoyao burst out laughing.

Even Long Yin was smiling.

Qi Hengs face fell. Princess Jier, maybe its best that you dont console me. They were all the same age, why would she still say he was still young?

Yaoyao patted him on the shoulder. Go home and have a few more bowls of rice, Qi Heng. Youll be able to grow taller that way.

Qi Heng rolled his eyes. You say such mean things, Second Princess.

Yaoyao was not bothered by this at all.

Qi Hengs father was the Crown Princes Grand Mentor, who was of great virtue and very knowledgeable. Their father had personally picked him as Royal Brothers Grand Mentor.

As for Qi Heng, he was the Crown Princes study companion who often entered the Palace. Qi Heng had a bubbly personality and was very likable, which was why they often played together.

This little rascal had acted quite proper and formal in the beginning. He had given off a mature nature, but as time pa.s.sed and everyone got to know each other, Qi Heng showed his true colors, which was unlike the impression he first gave everyone.
