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

Chapter 122 The Wedding is Imminent
Shengjing City was plunged into winter overnight. It was only the end of November, and it was already very cold, with even a heavy snowfall.

With only ten days left until Luo Chujiu and Xiao Beiming's wedding, Xiao Beiming hasn't been visiting the Imperial Preceptor's residence as often these past few days. Before the wedding, it's best to minimize the chances of them meeting.

In the morning, Luo Chujiu opened the window and saw snow covering the ground outside, which excited her greatly.

Xuanfeng Mountain had never seen such heavy snow before, and Luo Chujiu had never seen such white snow or such a large area of ​​snow before, so she was very excited.

As soon as I got dressed, I ran out into the yard and started building a snowman, not caring whether my hands were cold or not.

After seeing this, Fei Yun offered some advice:
"Miss, please take care and don't catch a cold. You're getting married in just a few days, and it would be terrible if you got sick."

Fei Yun looked at Luo Chu Jiu with concern.

"You've been serving me for almost a year now, when have you ever seen me sick? I've never been sick since I was born, so you can rest assured."

Luo Chujiu was quite aware of her own constitution. Did you think her innate Xuan Body was a joke? She was immune to all poisons and diseases!
Feiyun thought about it for a moment and realized that it was indeed the case, so she stopped stopping Luo Chujiu from playing wildly in the yard.

When Nalan Qingyin and Xiao Beiming returned to the Imperial Preceptor's residence, they saw that Luo Chujiu had already built a super big snowman in the courtyard. It was very cute, just like Luo Chujiu herself.

"Fourth Senior Brother, Brother Beiming, you've arrived!"

Upon seeing the two of them, Luo Chujiu immediately put down the snow in her hand and rushed towards them.

Nalan Qingyin and Xiao Beiming both looked at Luo Chujiu with great anticipation, and were even prepared to reach out and catch her.

As a result, Luo Chujiu braked suddenly when she was two steps away from them and stopped in front of them.

A hint of disappointment flashed in both of their eyes.

"Look, I've built such a big snowman! Isn't it amazing?"

Luo Chujiu proudly showed off the snowman she had built herself.

“Yes, it’s very big,” Nalan Qingyin said with a smile.

"The snowman that Xiao Jiu built is the cutest snowman I've ever seen." Xiao Beiming didn't hold back his praise for her. Praising the snowman was equivalent to praising Xiao Jiu, a fact that Xiao Beiming knew very well.

Nalan Qingyin almost rolled her eyes at Xiao Beiming when she heard his words:
So you think you're the only one who knows how to compliment people?

"Xiao Jiu, are your hands cold after building such a big snowman?" Xiao Beiming looked at Luo Chujiu with concern.

"I didn't realize it before, but now that you mention it, it does seem a bit cold."

Her hands were almost stiff.

Upon hearing this, the group quickly went inside to warm themselves by the fire.

Nalan Qingyin had someone bring a basin of warm water and let Luo Chujiu soak her hands in it for a while before Feiyun applied moisturizing cream to her hands.

Nalan Qingyin and Xiao Beiming waited patiently for Luo Chujiu until she sat down beside them, at which point they smiled again.

"Brother Beiming, didn't you say last time that we wouldn't see each other before we got married? Why are you here again today?" Luo Chujiu asked knowingly, just wanting to hear the answer she wanted from Xiao Beiming.

"I miss you. Fortunately, it's not time to get married yet, so I can see you whenever I want."

Luo Chujiu couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips:
“Perfect timing, I also miss Brother Beiming, we’re really on the same wavelength.”

"Cough cough cough, watch your mouth, you're not married yet, a young lady like you, aren't you ashamed to say such things?"

Nalan Qingyin couldn't stand it any longer and spoke up to stop Luo Chujiu from saying anything more outrageous. "Fourth Senior Brother, if you can't stand it, you don't have to listen. I didn't force you to stay in my room."

Fourth Senior Brother has no sense at all. She just wanted to spend some time alone with Xiao Beiming, but he stayed here like a third wheel.

Nalan Qingyin was so angry at Luo Chujiu's words that she almost vomited blood.

But he refused to leave, insisting on staying to keep an eye on Xiao Beiming so that he wouldn't do anything inappropriate to his junior sister.

Luo Chujiu had no choice but to silently endure being such a bright light bulb.

However, Xiao Beiming had nothing else to do; he simply came to see Luo Chujiu and left after sitting for a while.

After Xiao Beiming left, Luo Chujiu and Nalan Qingyin stared at each other blankly.

"You're still glaring at me? You ungrateful brat." Nalan Qingyin said irritably.

"Fourth Senior Brother, Brother Beiming and I are getting married soon. What's wrong with wanting to get to know each other better and spend more time together? You're keeping a close eye on me. I can't even do anything to him." Luo Chujiu glared at Nalan Qingyin angrily.

Nalan Qingyin almost choked on her breath:

"What did you say? You want to do something to him? You're a young lady! Be more reserved!"

"Can being reserved feed me? I don't need to be reserved at all," Luo Chujiu said with a haughty expression.

Nalan Qingyin was speechless and left her room in anger.

Luo Chujiu watched Nalan Qingyin leave, shaking her head helplessly.

What's wrong with Fourth Senior Brother? Why is he getting more and more anxious as his wedding day approaches? It's just a wedding, it's not like we'll never see each other again. Could Fourth Senior Brother have a crush on his junior sister?
Suspected of having a crush on her junior sister, Nalan Qingyin returned to her room. She took out three Xuan coins from her bosom and tossed them six times before a divination result appeared.

However, the more Nalan Qingyin looked at the divination, the more alarmed she became.

how come.
Nalan Qingyin's face turned pale. Only after seeing the divination results did she accept this undeniable fact.

Ultimately, it's too late; we've missed our chance.

Besides, there shouldn't have been any other relationship between them in the first place. Oh well, let it all go with the wind.

Nan Ke felt that his master was acting very strangely lately. He liked to pace back and forth for no reason. When asked what was wrong, he wouldn't say and seemed very nervous.

"Your Highness, I know you are about to marry the Princess, so I am very nervous. But you are walking back and forth every day, which is making my head spin."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Beiming stopped in his tracks and stared at Nan Ke:

"You've never been married, so naturally you don't know how I feel. Aunt Ning has introduced you to several girls, but haven't you found one you like?"

Xiao Beiming began to pierce Nan Ke's heart, and Nan Ke replied with a helpless expression:

"Your Highness, please don't ridicule me. Those girls all look down on me because I'm not capable enough. They want me to stay and serve you and leave the palace, but how can I agree to that? I want to follow you for the rest of my life."

"That's what the girls said?"

"They didn't say it, but they tested me. I'm not stupid; I understood what they meant. They just felt that following me meant I was destined to never be rich or powerful."

Nan Ke accepted it all calmly and wasn't too upset.

If getting married means leaving the palace, then he could choose to never get married.
