Chương 1673: Lose Himself Together With Her

Ji'er's lips curved into a smile. "What's wrong?"

Concealing the worry in his eyes, Chu Qi squeezed her hand. "Nothing. I've finished handling today's military affairs. It's late—I'll walk you back to your room."

"All right." Ji'er nodded, stood up, and left the study with him.

Chu Qi held her hand all the way. When they arrived at her room, he wanted to release his grip, but the girl suddenly threw herself into his arms.

"Lil Qi, stay here tonight." Ji'er lay her cheek against his chest. As she listened to his steady and powerful heartbeat, her pounding heart instantly calmed down, and her determination grew stronger.

Chu Qi stiffened, then dropped his gaze to her.

She had not asked him to stay in the past few days, so he thought it would be the same this night.

However, he could never bear to say no to Ji'er.

"All right," he replied. Holding her hand, he led her into the room and turned to close the doors.
