Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

1485 No, Absolutely Not

It was the first time Ji’er was doing chores like this and she was stumbling over herself. On top of that, she was a little angry at Chu Qi, which made her drop a plate to the ground carelessly.

Crash!

The plate broke into pieces.

Shocked, Ji’er quickly crouched to pick up the broken pieces.

The veins on Chu Qi’s temple throbbed when he saw this and he quickly shouted to stop her. “Be careful, Ji’er!”

However, it was too late. Ji’er’s soft, tender fingers immediately bled after being cut by the sharp edges of the shards.

Chu Qi frowned and quickly strode over to pull her up.

“I’m bleeding, Lil Qi…” Ji’er held up her hurt finger and gave him a pitiful look.

Chu Qi did not think twice as he gently sucked her bleeding finger in his mouth.

Ji’er stared blankly at him.

She had not realized that the cut on her finger from the sharp porcelain pieces was deeper than she thought.

Chu Qi did not realize how inappropriate his action was.

It was only when he met the young girl’s shy eyes that he realized what had happened. He immediately released her hand and took a step back. He looked away and said with slight embarrassment, “You’ve stopped bleeding. Don’t be so careless next time.”

Ji’er smiled as her heart was filled with warmth.

Lil Qi’s reaction was genuine.

Even if he had purposely distanced himself, his concern for her was ingrained deep inside him, and it had never changed.

Otherwise, he would not have rushed to her immediately and put her bleeding finger into his mouth without hesitation.

He did not shy away from doing it, nor was he afraid.

A smile appeared on her lips and a tender look could be seen in her beautiful eyes as she gave him a delicate look.

Chu Qi leaned against the table with his gaze lowered. He noticed the adoration in the girl’s eyes, but he could only pretend that he did not see anything.

There was a huge age gap between them and he had personally raised Ji’er. How could he harbor such thoughts about her?

No, absolutely not.

He warned himself in his heart.

However, this warning only made him feel frustrated and he did not notice the bloodstain on the corner of his lips, which somehow gave his appearance a resplendent glow.

Ji’er stood there, watching him in a daze.

Lil Qi was a handsome man with a delicate look, but he was cold and distant, and often gave off a sense that he did not want people around him. However, the bright red bloodstain at the corner of his mouth looked like lipstick rouge that had been accidentally wiped onto him, making him look seductive. Anyone who saw him like this would have found him simply alluring.

Ji’er kept staring at him and suddenly felt her face turn red as her heart beat wildly.

Chu Qi sensed her passionate gaze and winced as he lifted his eyes to look at her.

He watched as she lifted her uninjured hand to wipe the corner of his mouth.

Chu Qi’s body stiffened.

The girl’s soft touch brushed the corner of his lips. It felt like a feather had grazed his heart.

It was a bittersweet feeling that was filling up his chest.

His handsome face instantly burned red.

Ji’er did not notice this as she showed him her bloodstained finger. “Lil Qi, the corner of your lip is stained with blood… Huh, why is your face so red?”

Chu Qi collected himself. “I’m fine.”

“Are you really?” Concerned, Ji’er reached out in an attempt to feel his forehead. “You’re not having a fever, are you?”

“No, I’m not.” Chu Qi brushed off his emotions and suddenly grabbed her arm to drag her out the door. “Hurry and go home, Ji’er. I need some rest.”

Before Ji’er realized what had happened, she was pushed out of the room.

It took her a while to realize what had happened as she stared at the door shut in front of her. She quickly knocked on it. “Lil Qi, I haven’t cleared the plates yet.”

However, the room was silent and there was no sound coming from inside at all.

Ji’er could not help feeling a little disappointed.

Did Lil Qi find her annoying?

She did not believe that he needed to rest.

This was his excuse to chase her out of the room!

He had slept the entire afternoon and would not be able to sleep now anyway.

Indeed, Chu Qi did not go to sleep.

He leaned against the door and, after listening to Ji’er call out for him for a while, he finally walked toward his bed after the noise subsided.
