Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

u say, Lil Qi.”

Lil Qi was not happy to hear that.
Instead, it felt like something stung his heart painfully.

Ji’er was a princess and a woman of nobility.
She was supposed to live confidently and proudly.
Even if she were to act arrogantly, it would be acceptable.

However, it was completely the opposite case when she was with him.
Ji’er tip-toed around him and showed no confidence.
She was insecure and would accommodate him to make him happy.

He was the one who had caused her to be like this.

The look in his eyes darkened as he cursed himself incessantly for this.

He had kept his distance from her in the past for her own good, hoping that Ji’er would live a better life without him around.
However, her life had not improved and she had turned into an insecure person who lacked confidence because of him.

As he looked at the girl staring at him with a hopeful look in her eyes, his heart suddenly ached for her.

His perseverance suddenly crumbled.

He was the one who had caused her to develop feelings for him.

If he had stayed by her side all this time, she might have grown up happily and would not have had such feelings for him.

His dark eyes shut slightly as he tried to hide his regret.

When he touched her now, however, he could only blame himself for having such weak self-restraint when it came to her, even if it was caused by external reasons.

He sighed.
Things had already come to this and it was no longer necessary to continue his original perseverance.

Chu Qi leaned down and kissed her on the forehead.
He rubbed her head and said, “Don’t worry about anything, and have a good rest.”

Ji’er still felt like she was in a dream after he left the room.
There was a cool sensation on her forehead which reminded her that what just happened was real and she was not dreaming.

Even though Lil Qi had kissed her before this, this kiss on her forehead did not seem to be the same.

She felt that this was a sign that Lil Qi cherished her.

Did this mean Lil Qi accepted her and would no longer push her away?
