1358 About To Part Ways
“It’s time for dinner. Come sit down, Dad, Big Bro,” Lu Liangwei offered at the right moment, and the two men readily accepted.
The whole family sat down for dinner and discussed the details of the next day’s wedding.
After dinner, everyone went their separate ways.
Dusklight Court and Constellation Harvest Court were in the same direction, so Lu Liangwei and Long Yang walked with Lu Tingchen.
Each of them held one child in their arms.
It was a tranquil, moonlit night. Even though they did not converse, the atmosphere was not dull.
Since it was Lu Tingchen’s wedding the next day, Long Yang felt that Weiwei would have a lot to say to her brother. When they reached a fork in the path, he said, “I think the children are sleepy, so I’ll take them back first. You two can chat for a bit more.”
Lu Liangwei gave him a grateful look and said gently, “Then please take them back first. I’ll be back in a while.”
“All right.” Long Yang nodded.
Nanny Wang and Nanny Chen walked up to Lu Liangwei and Lu Tingchen, took the children from them, then followed Long Yang to Dusklight Court.
When they had disappeared into the distance, Lu Tingchen shifted his gaze to his sister beside him.
Seeing that she was still staring in the direction where the Emperor had left, he smiled knowingly. “I’m glad to see you so happy.”

Lu Liangwei turned her gaze to her brother. Looking at his lean figure under the moonlight, she suddenly blurted out, “Time really flies. I remember you visiting me with wine the day before my wedding, and we both ended up drunk.” She let out a mirthful laugh.
Recalling that embarrassing memory, Lu Tingchen stroked his nose sheepishly. “So you want to get drunk with me again tonight?”
Lu Liangwei chuckled. “I don’t think getting a heavyweight drinker like you drunk will be easy.”
Lu Tingchen’s dark eyes stared at the bright moon in the night sky for a moment. His lips curved into a smile, and he turned to look at her. “Exactly, yet I still ended up as drunk as a skunk the day before your wedding. Do you know why?”
Lu Liangwei gazed at her brother’s handsome face, her heart swelling with warmth and emotion. “Because you couldn’t bear to see me go.”
Lu Tingchen suddenly reached out and wrapped an arm around her small shoulders. “That’s right. I couldn’t bear to see you leave and get married, and I was also worried that you’d be mistreated after marrying into the imperial family. But there was nothing I could do to stop it, so I ended up taking a drop too much out of frustration that night—I didn’t think I’d get drunk, though. But now, seeing how happy you are and how much the Emperor treasures you, I realize that all my worry had been for nothing.”
Lu Liangwei had always known that her brother treated her well, and she was happy to be cherished by him too.
At this moment, she was still touched to hear him voice the concerns he felt for her back then.
Blinking away the wetness in her eyes, she clung to his arm and said sincerely, “I hope you can grow old happily together with Jiu too.”
Lu Tingchen pulled her into his arms and nodded solemnly. “I will. I hope you’ll live happily ever after with the Emperor too.”
For some reason, his words roused a deep feeling of melancholy in Lu Liangwei—he sounded as if he was going to leave her soon.
The thought had just popped into her head when she heard her brother sigh softly. Stroking her hair, he said, “Weiwei, after the wedding, Jiu and I will leave for the frontier and stay there permanently. Whenever you have time, come back home and spend time with Grandmother. Take care of her for me.”
Lu Liangwei pushed him away and stared at him in disbelief. “Why?”
Dropping his usual carefree attitude, Lu Tingchen said seriously, “I didn’t want to tell you this so soon, but since I’ve brought it up, I might as well tell you everything. Dad’s getting old, and he and Mother were separated for so many years, so I hope they can spend the rest of their lives happily together in the imperial capital. I’m still young, and someone needs to guard the frontier, so I’m the best choice. That way, I can be of some help to the Emperor.”
