1684 I’m Not Worthy To Be Her Father

Long Yang looked around at the younger generation in the room and said to Long Yin, “You have all only arrived today as well. It must have been a long journey and you need to leave for the imperial capital immediately tomorrow. You should go ahead and have some rest now.”

“Yes, Father,” Long Yin replied. He knew that his father had something to say to Chu Qi, and he quickly led everyone out of the study.

Once Long Yin and the rest were gone, Long Yang focused his gaze on Chu Qi.

This was the first time he had seen Chu Qi look so devastated and crestfallen.

He had always been a loner and did not speak much, however, he always made sure he was tidy and never drank. It was the first time he looked so depressed and stank of alcohol.

It was apparent that Ji’er leaving had been a huge blow to Lil Qi.

Long Yang sighed and sat quietly for a while before speaking up, “Lil Qi, I know it bothers you a lot that Ji’er left without saying goodbye, but if Ji’er found out that you had given up on yourself, she would be devastated. I hope you’ll get yourself together and focus on searching for Ji’er. I owe her too much in this life. She decided to leave so hardheartedly because she doesn’t want to see me anymore.”

“She has faced so many tribulations since the day she was born and I was the one who caused all these to happen to her. I’m not worthy to be her father. It’s only right for her to hate and blame me. I no longer hope to have her forgiveness. All I hope is for her to be able to live the remainder of her life with happiness and her happiness can only be given by you.”

Chu Qi’s thick, dark eyelashes fluttered. His heart and spirit were shocked by this statement.

What had he been doing all these days?

Ji’er had left without saying goodbye because she was too sad and hurt to face His Majesty.

Chu Qi should have understood her and not blamed her for cruelly abandoning him.

Was she eating well out there alone? Was she sleeping well? Was she bullied by anyone?

Chu Qi’s heart ached for her at these thoughts.

He instantly felt unsettled as he could not wait to rush to her side to protect and accompany her.

The expression on Chu Qi’s face kept changing and he finally came to a decision. He suddenly lifted up the corner of his robe and knelt on one knee at Long Yang. As he had not spoken for many days, his voice now sounded hoa.r.s.e and terrible. “It was my carelessness that allowed Ji’er to be able to leave. It has nothing to do with Your Majesty. I will do everything in my power to bring her back.”

When Long Yang saw him finally pulling himself together, he was relieved and he helped Chu Qi up.

“It’s good that you have thought this through. We will next split up in two directions in our search for Ji’er,” Long Yang continued.

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Chu Qi nodded. He would find Ji’er and stay with her for the rest of his life. He would give her happiness and help her forget all her sorrows even if he had to go to the ends of the earth.

Lu Liangwei woke up close to evening time.

Her heart sank when she smelled the thick scent of medicinal herbs in the room. “Long Yang…”

“I’m here.” Long Yang was coming toward her with a bowl of medicine. When he saw her awake, he quickly went forward to help her up.

Lu Liangwei frowned with worry when she saw the bowl of medicine in his hand. “Are you hurt?”

Long Yang replied helplessly, “Why would I be hurt when I’m doing fine? You’re that one that isn’t fine. Yaoyao went to get some medicinal herbs after you pa.s.sed out. She boiled this medicine for you herself. Drink it while it’s hot.”

Lu Liangwei was a little embarra.s.sed to hear that. She drank the medicine straight from his hand.

After finis.h.i.+ng it, she asked anxiously, “About Ji’er…”

“Don’t worry, Lil Qi and I will be heading out to search for her tomorrow.” Long Yang comforted her.
