After they were done with their game, Long Yin got up understandingly and left with his two younger sisters.
Lu Liangwei walked back inside after seeing off her three children. She watched as Long Yang held onto a chess piece. She wondered what was going through his mind as he kept holding on to it.
"Is something on your mind?" She walked over to him and sat next to him.
Long Yang smiled and put the piece down. He pulled her into his arms as he sat. "Nothing much."
"Don't say that. Even Yin'er could tell that something is bothering you." Lu Liangwei played with his slender fingers. "What is it? Can't you share it with me?"
Long Yang sighed. "Lil Qi requested for me to send him to the West Water Frontier."
Lu Liangwei was shocked. She lifted her head to look at him. "He left today?"
"Yes." Long Yang frowned. "He's doing it for Ji' er."
