Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

m.

“Father, Mother, Weiwei, please take good care of Grandmother,” Lu Tingchen said seriously.

“Don’t worry.
We’re all here for her.” The expression on Ling Lihua’s face softened.

Lu Tingchen and Chu Jiu finally got onto their horses.

Before they left, Chu Jiu looked at Zhao Qian and said apologetically, “Take good care of yourself, Father!”

She had promised to take care of him, but in the end, she had to leave for somewhere far away.

The frontier was quite a long distance from the imperial capital and she could not make the journey back swiftly even if she wanted to.

Zhao Qian’s eyes turned red as he waved her off and put on a look of indifference.
“Hurry up and leave.
It’s getting late.”

“Remember to take care of yourself!” Chu Jiu was downcast, but she eventually pulled on the horse’s reins and left with Lu Tingchen.

Zhao Qian felt very depressed as he watched them move further away.

He had finally taken in Jiu as his adoptive daughter, but in just a short time, she had to leave for a faraway place.

He could not bear for her to leave.

As he stood there watching Chu Jiu depart, he looked like an elderly father.
He could not bear to see her leave, but he tried to hide it.
He had so much to say to her, yet was not able to voice it out.

Right then, a handkerchief appeared in front of him.

He accepted it without thinking much.
“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” The person who handed him the handkerchief smiled.

Zhao Qian wiped his eyes and only then realized he had been given a handkerchief.
He turned to look at the person and clenched the cloth as he said fearfully, “Your Highness…”

“Butler Zhao, you don’t need to worry too much about Jiu.
My big brother will take good care of her,” Lu Liangwei consoled him softly.

“That’s true.
With Heir Presumptive Lu with her, there shouldn’t be anything for me to worry about.” Zhao Qian sighed, but he was already missing Chu Jiu.

“Let’s go back.” Long Yang placed his hand around Lu Liangwei’s shoulders.

“Alright,” Lu Liangwei replied.

It was early when they went out and three children had not woken up yet.
They had to go home as fast as they could now.

Just as they were approaching the city, a brown horse suddenly came galloping out of the city.

Lu Liangwei was surprised to see the person on the horse.
“It’s Long Xuan.
Where is he going?” Just as she said this, a thought suddenly crossed her mind.
“He isn’t going to Tianzhu Mountain, is he?”
