1461 Would He Still Be Able To Recognize Her After Not Seeing Her For Five Years

Zhan Qing was waiting outside. When she saw Ji’er come out, she quickly approached her.

She noticed that Ji’er’s eyes were as red as a rabbit’s.

One glance was enough to tell that she had been crying.

However, Zhan Qing did not make any comment. Wrapping an arm around Ji’er, she led her back the way they came without alerting anyone.

On the way back, Ji’er muttered in Zhan Qing’s arms, “Big Sis Zhan Qing, I’ll be ten years old after the New Year.”

“Yes. You’ll be one year older, Your Highness,” Zhan Qing said wistfully—she would be one year older too.

Ji’er clung to her waist without another word.

She would get to see Lil Qi in another five years, right?

What if he did not come back?

Her brow furrowed, then it smoothed out again. If he did not come back, she could always go to him.

How stupid of her!

From that day onward, Ji’er would go to the South Conquering General Mansion every New Year’s Eve. She would sit in Lil Qi’s room and talk to herself for a while before leaving.

On another snowy New Year’s Eve, Ji’er sat by the window with her chin in her hand, gazing at the billowing snowflakes outside.

She would be fifteen years old after the New Year, but Lil Qi had yet to return.

Her eyes dimmed.

In that case, she would visit him at the West Water Frontier once the flowers start blooming next spring.

Would Lil Qi still be able to recognize her after not seeing her for five years?

The girl’s stunning face was reflected in the water chestnut flower-shaped mirror on the table.

Just then, another girl’s tinkling laughter from outside the window broke her reverie.

“Ji’er, why are you always hiding in your room? Come out—let’s have a snowball fight.”

It was Yaoyao’s voice.

Ignoring her, Ji’er slumped onto the table and stared into space listlessly.

Yaoyao waited for a while but did not receive any reply. With a mischievous gleam in her eye, she grabbed a handful of snow and sneaked into Ji’er’s bedchamber.

She was not too surprised to see the girl sitting by the window.

Whenever it snowed, Ji’er would sit alone in a trance by the window.

Ji’er was so lost in her own world that she did not notice Yaoyao sneaking up behind her.

The sudden coldness on her neck sent a shiver down her spine, and she jumped to her feet, shaking off the ice and snow on her body.

Not daring to stay a second longer, Yaoyao took to her heels.

Ji’er was infuriated. “Long Yinyao, stop right there!”

Yaoyao pulled a face at her over her shoulder, shouting as she ran, “Mother sent me to inform you that the banquet’s about to start. See you at Jade Dew Hall!”

Exasperated, Ji’er was determined to teach her a lesson this time.

Seeing Yaoyao run off, she hastily unleashed her Light Body Skill and gave chase.

Although Yaoyao refused to learn martial arts, her Light Body Skill was close to perfection. In fact, she was even better than Ji’er in that area.

Ji’er raced after her in hot pursuit.

On this New Year’s Eve night, Long Yang hosted a banquet for all the court officials in Jade Dew Hall.

Long Yin and his entourage had just arrived at the entrance of Jade Dew Hall when he heard a commotion in the crowd.

“Hey, isn’t that the Second Princess…”

“And isn’t that the Third Princess behind her…”

At the sound of these murmurs, a tall and handsome man in the crowd immediately clenched his fists, a wave of mixed emotions surging in his dark eyes.

Ji’er…

“Long Yinyao, if you don’t stop right now, you’re going to be very sorry!”

The girl’s silvery warning entered Chu Qi’s ears clearly, making him freeze.

After a long moment, he finally turned and looked.

Two slender figures were sprinting through the snow and heading in his direction, one after the other.

The girl in front was dressed in a light green palace gown and exhibited excellent Light Body Skill. However, her face was pale with panic from being chased by the girl in pink behind her, and she was fleeing in whatever path she could find.

“Royal Brother, Ji’er’s trying to catch me…” Long Yinyao wailed.

Chu Qi’s gaze landed on the girl behind her.

Both of them possessed exceptional beauty, but the girl in pink had a glacial air to her, and her tightly pursed lips revealed her immense frustration.

“Don’t hide behind Royal Brother if you have the guts!” With a cold glint in her eyes, Ji’er seized a handful of snow from the top of a tree and shaped it into a ball.
