1477 Indicated How Furious He Was At That Moment

However, Long Yang’s reaction was no better than hers as a horrified and enraged gloom settled over his face rapidly.

Long Yin stared at Ji’er in shock.

Yaoyao’s eyes bulged.

Startled by the Emperor and Empress’s arrival, Chief Physician Lin and Steward Chen hurried forward to greet them.

“Your Majesty, Your Highness…”

Ji’er had just given Chu Qi his last mouthful of medicine when she heard their voices. She immediately stiffened and flushed as she thought of how she had fed Lil Qi his medicine. She had not expected her parents to walk in, and she was certain that they had seen what she had been doing.

She was so desperate just now that she had not found anything wrong with her actions. Now that she had calmed down, she finally started to feel embarra.s.sed.

She perched on the edge of the bed, biting her lip, not daring to look over her shoulder.

“Long Ji’er, come here.” Suppressing his rage, Long Yang ordered in a low voice.

Ji’er twitched in alarm, then set down the bowl. Bowing her head, she shuffled over to him apprehensively.

Her father had never called her that way before, and it made her a little uneasy.

The sight of Ji’er’s tense face brought Lu Liangwei back to her senses. Although she was still feeling a little conflicted inside, she had regained her composure, and she nudged Long Yang—who was simmering—signaling him not to scare Ji’er.

It took Long Yang a lot of effort to stop the reprimand from escaping his lips, but the heaving of his chest indicated how infuriated he was at that moment.

Lu Liangwei had also been taken aback by the scene they had just witnessed, but she had already collected herself.

She took her dejected daughter’s hand and patted it, asking casually, “How is Lil Qi doing?”

Relieved that her mother did not mention a word about the incident just now, Ji’er answered, “His wound festered, he has a high fever, and he’s still in a coma. Chief Physician Lin said his fever would only subside if he drank the medicine.”

She was indirectly explaining why she had been feeding Lil Qi his medicine.

Hearing this, Lu Liangwei eyed her daughter critically.

From her lowered gaze and clenched fists, Lu Liangwei knew that things were not as simple as she had made them out to be.

Could this child possibly have feelings for Lil Qi…

The notion startled Lu Liangwei.

However, she quickly collected her thoughts and made her way over to the bed.

She reached out and took Chu Qi’s pulse. Sure enough, his condition was pretty much how Ji’er had described it.

“How did Chu Qi get such a serious injury?” Long Yang’s gaze flickered to Steward Chen.

Steward Chen threw himself onto his knees and replied fearfully, “Your Majesty, the General was fine last night. He came back drunk and fell asleep right away, but in the middle of the night, he suddenly went out again and came back all covered in blood. I’m not sure what happened—he didn’t explain anything.”

Ji’er felt something tighten around her heart, and her eyes darted around guiltily.

Long Yang did not say anything, but he leveled a thoughtful look at Ji’er.

Sensing her father’s scrutinizing gaze, Ji’er hesitated briefly before steeling herself and falling to her knees. “Father, Lil Qi was injured… because of me.”

Except for Yaoyao, who already knew the reason, everyone in the room turned to her in surprise.

Chu Qi was injured because of her?

Long Yang stared at her in shock. Recalling how she had fed Lil Qi his medicine, he soon put two and two together, and his handsome face darkened in an instant.

Ji’er remained on her knees, her father’s silence elevating her apprehension with every pa.s.sing second.

However, there was no doubt that Lil Qi was in this state because of her, and she refused to s.h.i.+rk any responsibility.

Looking at his youngest daughter kneeling on the floor, Long Yang sighed to himself. With a frown, he said, “Get up first, and then we’ll talk.”

Ji’er glanced up quickly at her father’s expression, her nervousness fading a little when she saw that it was not as terrifying as she had imagined. However, she shook her head and said firmly, “It’s my fault that Lil Qi’s in this state.”
