After a master of metaphysics severed ties with his family, the whole family was filled with regret!

Chapter 116 Finding a Solution
Luo Chujiu originally thought that Xiao Beiming would give up, but when she looked up, Xiao Beiming seized her lips and gave her a passionate kiss.

However, Luo Chujiu did not refuse and enjoyed it. In any case, this kind of thing was quite comfortable, and she always respected her own inner needs.

Xiao Beiming only released Luo Chujiu when he felt it was enough.

"How is my kissing skill? Has it improved?"

After Xiao Beiming finished kissing Luo Chujiu, he still had to ask her a question, which earned him a glare from Luo Chujiu:
"Negative review."

"Oh? Is that so? Seeing how much my junior sister is enjoying it, I thought it was very comfortable. Then let's practice again next time. My kissing skills will definitely improve."

Xiao Beiming chuckled lightly, not bothering to argue with Luo Chujiu about his poor kissing skills.

"Who wants to contact you? You're shameless."

Fifth Senior Brother is truly shameless and thick-skinned.

"What's the point of saving face? More than face, I want a sweet and soft wife." Xiao Beiming looked at Luo Chujiu with a smile, and Luo Chujiu was his little wife.

Xiao Beiming withdrew before Luo Chujiu could hit him.

Upon returning to the Prince's residence, just as he was about to lie down and rest, he noticed what appeared to be a letter on his desk. Curious, Xiao Beiming opened the letter and discovered it was addressed to him.

After reading the letter, Xiao Beiming didn't feel much. Since he already knew about his existence, there was no need to hide it so much.

He picked up his pen and wrote down what had happened that night, emphasizing that he had kissed Luo Chujiu for a long time, deliberately trying to anger his other self.

After finishing writing the letter, Xiao Beiming lay down on the bed to rest, feeling quite satisfied.

The next morning, Xiao Beiming woke up with symptoms of dizziness and fatigue. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he went to his desk and found a letter.

Upon opening it, Xiao Beiming's expression froze, especially when he saw that he had kissed Xiao Jiu for a long time. Xiao Beiming almost wanted to fight his sixteen-year-old self.

But since they share a body, there's nothing that can be done about it.

Enraged, Xiao Beiming picked up his pen and wrote down words cursing his sixteen-year-old self for being shameless, completely unaware that they were the same person.

After writing the letter scolding his sixteen-year-old self, Xiao Beiming's expression softened a little.

After they went outside, Nan Ke greeted Xiao Beiming, and then Xiao Beiming looked at him:
"That brat came out of my body again yesterday. Are you aware of this?"

"Your Highness, I was unaware of this. After Your Highness retired for the night, I also went to my room to rest," Nan Ke replied truthfully.

So, that brat went out to steal kisses and illicit affairs in the middle of the night? He's really tarnishing my reputation!
"But what did the young master do after he came out last night?"

"Otherwise, why would the prince look so grim?" Nan Ke couldn't help but wonder.

"It's alright, it's harmless."

Xiao Beiming gritted his teeth and said, "I can't possibly tell Nan Ke that my sixteen-year-old self cheated on my current self, can I?"

Then Xiao Beiming remembered something mentioned in the letter, and made a plan in his mind. He went to the palace to attend court.

After court, he found Nalan Qingyin and asked her:

"Imperial Preceptor, please wait!"

"What advice does Your Highness have for me?" Faced with Nalan Qingyin's hostility towards him, Xiao Beiming sometimes felt quite helpless.

"Imperial Preceptor, there's no need for you to be so hostile towards me. I simply wanted to ask about my dual identity. After all, you are my fourth senior brother, aren't you?"

Upon hearing Xiao Beiming's words, Nalan Qingyin raised an eyebrow and then asked Xiao Beiming to accompany her to the Imperial Preceptor's Hall.

How did you find out about this?

"To be honest, he came out quite frequently the last few times. Even I, a dullard, sensed something was wrong. So I pressed Nan Ke, who was by my side, for answers. Only then did Nan Ke tell me the truth. That's when I learned that I had another identity. He would occasionally come out, so I wrote him a letter saying that we were one, and if anything important happened, it would be better to inform each other to avoid delays. So when he reappeared, he told me about it."

Xiao Beiming told the whole story truthfully, without any intention of concealing anything.

Nalan Qingyin understood what Xiao Beiming meant when she heard him say that.

“That’s right, you are indeed my fifth junior brother. You left the mountain when you were a teenager, and we haven’t seen each other for many years. Back then, you were called Wenqing. When we met again, you were already the Prince of Xiao, so I didn’t recognize you.”

Nalan Qingyin also truthfully told him some things.

"Then how did the Imperial Preceptor know that I am also from Xuanfeng Mountain?" Xiao Beiming continued to ask Nalan Qingyin.

"About a month ago, one night, Xiao Jiu hurriedly went out. Under my questioning, Xiao Jiu said that something had happened to you. So I went to Xiao Wang's mansion with Xiao Jiu. At that time, you fell ill and appeared when you were sixteen years old. As soon as you saw me, you called me Fourth Senior Brother. I was suspicious, so I took a piece of your nightgown and went back to the National Preceptor's mansion to verify it. I found that you were indeed the Fifth Junior Brother who had been missing for many years."

When Xiao Beiming heard Nalan Qingyin say this, he remembered the time he woke up and found that his nightgown was torn. At that time, he thought that he had accidentally torn it when he was having an attack. Who would have thought that the Imperial Preceptor had taken it.

"How can I regain my lost memories? I can't keep appearing in this form all the time."

This is the problem that Xiao Beiming most wants to solve right now.

"I don't know."

Nalan Qingyin also told Xiao Beiming frankly that he had no other choice.

"Why?"

If the Imperial Advisor is so powerful, why can't he help me regain my memories? Is there some hidden reason behind this?
"Without a cause, how can there be an effect? ​​If we don't know why you lost your memory, we naturally can't find it back."

Nalan Qingyin saw the confusion in Xiao Beiming's eyes, so she explained.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Beiming was somewhat disappointed:

Do I have to keep using two identities like this?
Xiao Beiming didn't want another version of himself to kiss Xiao Jiu, whom he loved, behind his back. His possessiveness wouldn't allow Xiao Jiu to be touched by anyone else! Even if that person was himself.

Perhaps sensing Xiao Beiming's urgency, Nalan Qingyin gently comforted him:

"Everything has a cause and effect; it's just that the time hasn't come yet. There's no need to rush. At least it hasn't caused you any necessary harm yet."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Beiming looked up at Nalan Qingyin, a look of confusion in his eyes. He couldn't quite understand the meaning behind the Grand Preceptor's words, but he still patiently listened.

"Thank you for your guidance, Imperial Advisor. I understand now."

"Well, in that case, I'll introduce you to the other senior brothers another day. Although you've already met them when they were sixteen, you haven't met them yet."

Xiao Beiming chuckled, nodded, and without saying anything more, got up and left the Imperial Preceptor's Hall.
