NovelEnglishTransmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart
Chapter 1469 Marry Me Then, Won’t YouJi'er was silent for a long time and did not say anything.
Just as Chu Qi was about to push her arm away again, she suddenly said something shocking. "Lil Qi, I'll be fifteen next year. Marry me then, won't you? That way, we can be together forever."
A crack of emotion appeared on Chu Qi's calm face when he heard this. His heart sank.
He immediately frowned and said in a low voice, "Do you know what you're saying, Ji'er?"
Ji'er was unfazed as she continued, "I know exactly what I'm saying. After you left without a word five years ago, I've thought about this. I'll marry you once I've grown up. That way, we will never be separated again."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChu Qi felt a vague sense of relief when he heard this.
From his point of view, Ji'er must have just come up with this strange idea because she was too reliant on him.
This thought helped him calm down instead.
He turned and grabbed her by the shoulders. He pushed her a little further away and took a few steps to the side. Once he ensured there was some distance between them, he said seriously and with determination, "Ji'er, no one will die just by leaving another person. It's like the past five years. You were still able to have a good life without me by your side. I'm really not as important as you think I am. I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said, and you should not repeat those words in the future."
Ji'er felt disappointed, but she still looked determined. "I'm serious. I've made up my mind to marry you. This decision wasn't made on a whim. It's just like what you said. I'm already grown up and I knew what I'm doing. That is why my decision isn't a rash one. I've thought long and hard about it."
Chu Qi frowned. He was shocked and starting to panic.
He had never imagined for Ji'er to have such a thought.
Chu Qi could easily annihilate swarms of enemies with his sword, but when it came to Ji'er, there was nothing much he could do when faced with her.
Confronted by the young girl's determination, he had to rack his brain to figure out how to counter her.
Just as he was deciding on how best to talk her out of her strange decision, Ji'er suddenly ran toward him and jumped into his arms.
Chu Qi was not prepared for her sudden movement and the momentum knocked him back a few steps before he stabilized himself.
Unlike the hug from behind, this embrace from the front forced him to face this situation head-on.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChu Qi's body instantly stiffened.
He frequently carried Ji'er in his arms when she was young, but it was different now. She was all grown up and had the body of a mature, young woman…
There were no barriers between them as she pressed against his body. He did not dare make a move and cold sweat quickly broke all over his forehead. The weather was freezing, but he was sweating all over.
However, he soon snapped out of it and his mind became clear once more. He held her arm and pushed her away gently but firmly. He looked stern. "You can't act this way, Ji'er."
"Why not? You used to hug me too," Ji'er said in a cute but stubborn manner.
Chu Qi found himself having a headache when faced with the girl's relentless attitude. He sounded a little helpless. "You were young before, but it's different now. You're grown up and there is a difference between a man and a woman."
Ji'er pressed her lips together and looked adamantly at him. "You can solve all that by marrying me. That way, you won't need to worry about this anymore."
Chu Qi felt like his head was about to split into two when he heard this. His fingers gently rubbed the spot between his eyes.
Somehow, even getting a hangover did not make his head throb this much.
"Marry me, won't you, Lil Qi?" The girl's voice suddenly seemed close. By the time Chu Qi realized something was amiss, he found himself unable to move. He looked at Ji'er in shock and could not believe what was happening. "Ji'er, you…"
