Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

He wanted to move her head away, but then, he heard her steady breathing and it seemed like she had already fallen asleep.

Chu Qi could not help but smile bitterly.

Ji'er slept soundly without any idea how tortured Chu Qi was feeling over her right then.

The sky was already dark by the time she woke up. She yawned and looked at the netting above the bed in a daze.

It took her a while to realize she was in Lil Qi's room.

She remembered that she was using Lil Qi's lap as a pillow and she turned her head, intending to call out to him when all of a sudden, her head bumped into something.

A man grunted in a low voice inside the dark room.

Ji'er heard him and immediately sat up. She turned around and looked at Chu Qi anxiously. "What's wrong, Lil Qi?"

Chu Qi was about to take a nap when this girl woke up. Her head had even bumped into him.

He was unprepared for it and grunted.

The girl leaned in close to him and looked at him in concern, unaware of what she had just done to him.

He was aching from his erection and his eyes turned dark while staring at her for a moment before suddenly lunging at her and kissing her on the lips.

Ji'er moaned and closed her eyes.

After a while, he carried Ji'er up to sit on his lap with no intention of releasing her.

Ji'er got dizzy from it but it felt so sweet to her to be kissed by Lil Qi that way. It made her feel happy.

However, it was soon that she noticed something different.

She reached out to grab him instinctively, which earned another grunt from Lil Qi. His gentle kiss instantly turned intense.

Ji'er held on to his shoulder a little helplessly.

It was a long time before he hugged her tight and rested his chin on her head as he stayed silent for quite a while.

"I'm hungry, Lil Qi." Ji'er broke the silence.

Chu Qi finally released her. "It's cold outside. Wait for me here while I get the food."

When she saw him about to leave, Ji'er went red in the face and suddenly said, "I need to relieve myself, Lil Qi."

Chu Qi stopped in his footsteps and turned back to look at the girl's embarrassed face. He realized what she needed and turned back to carry her in his arms. "I'll carry you there."

Ji'er's face flushed red. "That's not necessary."

"I carried you too when you were young." Chu Qi was suddenly in the mood to joke and teased her by using the words she constantly used against him.

"I'm all grown up now. I can go by myself," Ji'er retorted. "I need to put on my shoes."

"So, now you know to avoid me?" Chu Qi found this funny.

"When have I not avoided you?" Ji'er said weakly.

Chu Qi laughed gently and said nothing.

However, he still put her down in the end.

Ji'er was about to go outside after putting on her shoes when Chu Qi grabbed her arm. He covered her with his cloak. "It's freezing at night. Be careful not to catch a cold."

"You can really nag, Lil Qi." Ji'er felt sweet about it despite saying so.

This did not bother Chu Qi as he helped tied the cloak on her. "It's getting dark out there. I'll go with you."

"Alright." Ji'er did not object to this.

After that, they finished dinner and Ji'er soaked her feet. She climbed onto his bed after Chu Qi wiped her feet dry.

"Let's sleep together because it's cold at night," she said matter-of-factly as she laid down on the innermost part of the bed.

Chu Qi was silent for a while, but did not reject the idea.

However, he knew he was probably not able to sleep that night.

He removed his outer robe before lying down and Ji'er snuggled into his arms.

"You're so warm, Lil Qi. It feels so comfortable." Ji'er pressed against him.

"Don't make sudden movements, Ji'er," Chu Qi suddenly said in a deep voice and emphasized his words.

Ji'er was taken aback. "Why?"

"If you continue doing this, I won't be able to sleep." Chu Qi's husky voice in the night sounded like he was trying to stop himself from doing something further.
