Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

1683 Long Yang Was Downhearted
They had hurt Ji’er in the end.

It was the reason for why she was so determined to leave and refused to leave any final words for them.

Did she hate her and Long Yang so much?

She did not dare to imagine how disappointed Ji’er was in them the moment she found out what happened back then.

Ji’er was hurt, which was why she never wanted to see her and Long Yang again.

However, where would Ji’er go on her own?

At this thought, she felt a bloody taste in her mouth and she saw black as she fell unconscious.

“Mother!” Yaoyao exclaimed.

Long Yang had already reached out to hold Lu Liangwei.

It pained Long Yang to see Lu Liangwei pass out like that and he got anxious.

He leaned forward and carried her up in his arms.

Qing He immediately led him toward the wing room.

After settling her in, Yaoyao was finally able to stop feeling anxious and she helped to check Lu Liangwei’s pulse.

Long Yang was so nervous, he had no idea what to do.

As he watched the unconscious woman on the bed, the hands behind his back trembled uncontrollably.

Yaoyao put her hand down eventually and tucked Lu Liangwei properly under the blanket. She got up and said to Long Yang, “Don’t be anxious, Father. Mother just had an anxiety attack, and in addition to that, she did not have enough rest for many days, which was why the agitation caused her to pass out. She’ll wake up after resting a while.”

Long Yang was slightly relieved to hear that. He waved everyone out as he said, “You should all leave first.”

“Alright,” Yaoyao replied as she hurriedly led Hexin and the others out.

She saw her father sitting at the side of the bed as she closed the door. He held her mother’s hand and Yaoyao saw the worry and troubled look on that usually stoic and unchanging face. He even looked like he was blaming himself.

Yaoyao sighed and closed the door.

Her father was so in love her with Mother.

It was not long before Long Yang walked out of the room. He got Long Yin and the rest to come together and discuss what to do about the search for Ji’er.

Chu Qi was already cleaned up by now. He was dressed in a clean shirt, but he still looked listless and the red veins in his eyes revealed how tired and haggard he was.

Long Yang sat behind the study table as he turned toward Long Yin to instruct, “Ji’er is hiding from us on purpose and is trying to avoid being found. We won’t be able to find her in such a short time. We can’t allow the capital to be left without someone in charge. You are to leave for the capital tomorrow and take temporary charge of the country.”

Long Yin’s heart sank when he heard this. “Father, you…”

Long Yang was slightly downhearted. He did not attempt to hide it when facing the younger generation. “It’s true that I had let Ji’er down with what happened all those years ago. I owe her so much for it. Now that you’re all grown up, I believe you are able to hold your own with your capabilities. I’ll stay behind to search for Ji’er. As for matters of the imperial court, I’ll be handing the responsibility over to you.”

Long Yin stopped rejecting the idea when he saw how determined Long Yang was with this decision. He knelt on one knee, “As you wish, Father.”

Long Yang helped him up. He felt consoled and emotional as he looked at his son, who was now almost as tall as he was. “Go ahead and get ready.”

“Yes, Father.” Long Yin looked at his father, who seemed to have aged slightly in one night. He felt mixed emotions over it and was a little sad.

When his mother experienced the difficult labor, his father should not have vented his anger on Ji’er, but he must have blamed himself and was filled with hate and regret all these years, guilty for what he had done to Ji’er.
That was why Father had always seemed to dote on Ji’er more since young.

Long Yin had always figured that it was because she was the youngest among them.

It was only today that he found out that was not the case.

Father had always doted on Ji’er more because he felt great guilt toward her.

When Long Yin found out about what happened to Ji’er back then, he had to admit that there was a part of him that found it difficult to understand his father.

However, he could not help letting it go when he saw how his father was right now.

He might never understand just how deep his father’s love was for his mother.
