Chapter 1490 - 1490 He Felt Happy In That Moment

1490 He Felt Happy In That Moment

He even dared to make harmless jokes in front of the prince and princesses.

It was because of his easy-going and casual demeanor that made Long Yin and his siblings enjoy playing with Qi Heng.

Jier led them to Lil Qis courtyard.

The sun was s.h.i.+ning bright this day. Chu Qi walked out of his room and was sitting in the corridor to enjoy some sun while contemplating when was the right time to return to West Water Frontier.

His wounds were more or less healed. If it was possible, he would prefer to leave the next day.

However, Jier

He lifted his head and spotted Jier and her siblings. They were chatting happily all the way from the gates of the courtyard to where he was. There was a young man following beside them and he was chatting with Jier as well.

Chu Qi wondered what he was saying as Jier was smiling and looked quite happy.

His eyes narrowed as he began to size up the young man.

Jier and the others had reached him by then.

When she saw Chu Qi sitting in the corridor, Jiers eyes brightened and she quickly ran toward him. What are you doing out here, Lil Qi?

She was running too fast and she slipped while going up the stairs. She exclaimed in shock and was about to fall off the stairs.

Careful!

The few of them present shouted at the same time.

Chu Qi had already rushed forward to grab Jier.

However, Qi Heng, who was standing behind Jier was faster than he was, and managed to grab Jier.

Jier was still in shock as she nodded her thanks toward the young man who was holding onto her. Thank you, Qi Heng!

The young man smiled shyly. Its good that youre alright, Princess. After which, he released her a little unwillingly.

Chu Qi paused in his steps when he witnessed this. An unhappiness flashed on his face.

Long Yin was relieved to see that Jier was okay, but he still remembered to lecture her, Youre already all grown up and still being so careless while walking. Be careful next time.

Alright, Royal Brother. Jier felt a little embarra.s.sed too. She got too anxious when she spotted Lil Qi.

She snuck a glance at Chu Qi and saw him standing on the stairs, prepared to stop her from falling.

This warmed her heart. Im fine.

Thats good. Chu Qi gave her a slight glance and turned to Long Yin and the others. Come inside and have a seat.

Alright. Long Yin nodded and was the first to enter. He asked, How are your wounds doing?

Thank you for your concern, Crown Prince. Im feeling much better, Chu Qi replied.

Yaoyao pulled on Jiers hair and teased, Youve been facing each other all day and all night, do you need to be that anxious the moment you see him?

Jier rolled her eyes at Yaoyao and was about to say something when Qi Heng leaned in close to them. What are you girls talking about?

Nothing. Yaoyao avoided the topic. Lets go in and have some tea. Well see if the tea at the South Conquering General Mansion tastes better than the Palace.

Jier ignored the teasing in Yaoyaos tone and turned to Qi Heng to say, Lets go in together.

Alright. Qi Heng walked behind Jier and watched her from the back. His eyes turned gentle, much unlike his usual playful self.

Yaoyao b.u.mped Jiers arm and asked in a low voice, What are you doing to do about Qi Heng?

What? Jier did not understand her question.

Yaoyao sighed. Do you really not know or are you just pretending?

Jier looked at her innocently.

I think Qi Heng is about to have his heart broken. Yaoyao shook her head and sighed.

Chu Qi stood at the door while waiting for them and he overheard what Yaoyao said. His gaze fell on Qi Heng, who was walking not far away from the sisters.

There was adoration in the way Qi Heng was looking at Jier that could not be hidden.

The look in Chu Qis eyes dimmed.

Lil Qi. Jier looked at him and she immediately abandoned Yaoyao as she ran toward him. She lifted her pet.i.te face at him. Her beautiful eyes were filled with so much love that it looked like it would spill out of her.

Chu Qi smiled as he saw the open adoration in the girls eyes for him.

He could not deny that he felt happy in that moment to be liked so much by her.
