21-year-old Hardie also today signed one-year extension to his current contract, keeping him at Ibrox until the summer of 2020.
He told the Rangers website: “I have loved it [at Livingston] so far and it is my first experience of starting games in the Premiership and I’ve managed to get five goals in five games.
“So I am looking forward to going there again, scoring more goals and proving I can do it at this level. A lot of thanks has to go to the [Steven Gerrard] for allowing me to do so – he could easily have kept me in the building and I would not have got as much game-time as I would have wanted.
“It’s great he has realised that and wants me to play another six months of football and get regular game-time so I can come back here next season with a fresh view to playing for Rangers.”
