Chapter 1457 - 1457 This Child Had Finally Grown Up1457 This Child Had Finally Grown Up
Man Li had used words to hurt her today. There was no guarantee a second Man Li would not appear the next day.
Ji’er was still young and did not understand Man Li’s words, but what would happen after a few years?
Would Ji’er be able to take it if she heard the same words again then?
He could not let those dirty words sully Ji’er.
“Lil Qi, you’re thinking too far ahead. Man Li was just an unhappy accident,” Long Yang frowned and said.
“There is no guarantee that a second Man Li would not appear. I don’t want another accident like this to happen.” There was murder in Chu Qi’s eyes and he was determined about this.

It was quite a while before he finally spoke, “Give me some time to consider this.”
Chu Qi frowned. “Master, if you don’t agree to this, I’ll resign!” With that, he took out his token of authority and flung it to the ground.
The look on Long Yang’s face changed. His eyes narrowed. “How dare you threaten me!”
A bitter smile appeared on Chu Qi’s cold, handsome face. His dark eyes narrowed slightly. “Master has no lack of talented men working for you. It won’t make any difference if I’m here or not. Nothing will change for you, but I brought up Princess Ji’er. The one thing I wish most is for her not to get hurt and I believe Master wishes the same for her.”
Long Yang was silent for quite a while before finally sighing. He asked exasperatedly, “When do you plan to leave?”
“If it’s possible, I’ll leave right now,” Chu Qi said softly.
Long Yang was a little astonished. “Aren’t you saying goodbye to Ji’er?”
“It’s not necessary. I hope Master would be able to keep this to yourself for now. I believe Ji’er would be able to accept this with an open heart when she finds out about it after a while.” Chu Qi was actually not entirely sure when he said this.
Ji’er had cried so sadly the last time when he moved out of the Palace. This time, he was leaving the imperial capital. She would be even more upset than the last time.
However, he had to do this.
Long Yang knew how Ji’er was too.
He could only sigh when he heard Chu Qi’s words. “If Ji’er could accept this so easily, you wouldn’t have to travel all the way to the West Water Frontier.”
“Ji’er is already nine. I don’t need to be the one by her side. Someone else can do that too.” Chu Qi sounded a little cold.
“There’s nothing more I can say. I can only let you endure this for the sake of Ji’er.” Long Yang had no choice but to let Chu Qi go for Ji’er’s sake.
“Thank you, Master.” Chu Qi kowtowed to him and said seriously, “I hope you’ll take good care of yourself!”

Chu Qi clenched the token of authority tight in his hand and looked at his Master once more. There was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He had lost all his memories from before and had no idea who he was nor where he came from, but Zhao Qian and the others had told him that Master had saved him. Master had brought him up and personally taught him martial arts skills.
The man in front of him was like a master and a father to him.
Chu Qi’s thick eyelashes fluttered down slightly as they covered the emotions in his eyes.
Long Yang felt emotional as well as he watched the young man turn to leave. He felt deeply about this.
This child had finally grown up and was able to take the world on his own.
That night, Long Yin and his two siblings went to Grand Phoenix Palace to accompany their parents for dinner.
Long Yin accompanied Long Yang for a game of Chinese chess after dinner while Yaoyao and Ji’er stayed with Lu Liangwei, listening to her tell interesting stories.
As he listened to his mother’s gentle voice echo within the Palace, Long Yin felt peaceful. His mind was clear and acute while playing chess and every move he made was perfectly timed.
His father looked normal as usual, but from the way he made his move on the board, Long Yin could tell that his father was not in a good mood.
