An Xiaoning was not worried, however. They were already on their way home anyway.

Once she brings the corpse back successfully, she would be able to find out everything about her previous lifetime from the mysterious Mr. Xiao and her trip wouldn't have been a wasted one.

"What do you think your Young Sir is doing right now?"

"Needless to say, he's definitely busy at the office. It may be nighttime here but it's still daytime in S Nation," Fan Shixin deduced.

Fan Shixin set the yacht on autopilot and monitored it. Keeping his eyes fixed ahead, Fan Shixin said, "Actually, Young Sir's life is pretty exhausting. There's so much for him to tend to every day as the leader of a huge corporation."

"That's true, but one should have a busy life. Only when you lead a busy lifestyle do you learn how to appreciate and treasure the short breaks in between. If you have nothing to do and spend each day idling about, you'll start to feel empty and bored out of your wits. Shixin, you must understand that happiness originates from two sources. One is from the feeling of success and accomplishment while the other is from the joy derived from gaining pride and dignity."

"Young Madam, do you know why I've been staying single even until now?"

"Obviously because you haven't met someone you truly fancy."

Fan Shixin sighed and explained, "Back when I was still in school, I actually fancied girls before, just like most boys my age. However, I'm actually a shy and introverted person and I wouldn't confess my feelings for someone easily even if I fancy them. That is, unless I'm certain that they feel the same. I was shy and reserved when I was younger, but when I got older, I just lost the urge to act on impulse. I I would consider each decision carefully before making them. Besides, I spend all day around other men. It's good enough that I haven't turned homosexual, but Young Madam, do you think I'm a picky person?"

"Picky? I suppose you are."

"Well, I guess I'm picky in the sense that no one has managed to attract me yet. However, once I fall in love with someone, I'll love everything about her, including her flaws. I've yet to meet a girl whom I fancy, though. Maybe she's on her way to me now and all I have to do is wait patiently."

The two of them continued to chat to pass the time. Since the journey was rather long, the only way for them to kill their boredom was to chat with each other.

Fan Shixin was way too exhausted. Hence, An Xiaoning told him to take a nap while she reduced the speed of the yacht and sat by herself, keeping her eye fixed on the front.

He only woke up at four in the morning.

It was An Xiaoning's turn to get some rest.

The yacht began to speed up again. An Xiaoning could only fall asleep in peace upon seeing that he was refreshed and energized.

Before she dozed off, she repeatedly warned herself not to dream about her previous lifetime. After all, they were still at sea and it would be impossible for Fan Shixin to take care of her and himself, should anything happen.

However, it was not up to her to decide what she dreams about.

She was not in control of whether or not she dreams about her previous lifetime.

The moment An Xiaoning saw the scene before her eyes, she knew that she was already in dreamland.

She opened her eyes before closing them again and tried her best to force herself to fall asleep.

However, she simply could not doze off regardless of what she tried.

After several failed attempts, she decided to give up.

She got out of bed and began walking outside. The moment she opened the door, the pleasant fragrance of flowers wafted up to her nose.

She was greeted with the sight of a sizable bed of vibrant flowers, all of which were in full bloom.

Upon the sight of her, a petite figure put down her embroidery piece and walked toward An Xiaoning. "Miss, you're awake?"

An Xiaoning looked at Mei Yangyang in astonishment and asked, "What… is your name?"

"Miss, have you been possessed? My name is Yu Jiao," she answered, staring at An Xiaoning inquisitively.

An Xiaoning pinched her face and looked at her with a smile. "Your name is Yu Jiao?"

Dumbfounded, Yu Jiao said, "Miss, don't scare me, just what's the matter with you?"

"I was just teasing you, how could I not know your name?" An Xiaoning said with a grin as she let go of Yu Jiao's hand.

Yu Jiao humphed and said, "Don't frighten me, Miss. If I die from a huge shock, who's going to do their utmost best to serve you?"

An Xiaoning looked at her and thought to herself, Is this Mei Yangyang's incarnate from our previous lifetime?

Was she my servant?

She held her hand and said, "I won't do that anymore."

"Miss…" Yu Jiao muttered in astonishment.

"Stop calling me that. You can just call me 'Sis.'"

"I… I wouldn't dare. There are formalities that I ought to conform to. I'm only a humble maid, how can I be your sworn sister, Miss?" said Yu Jiao, hanging her head low.

"You may just do so in private." Realizing that she was still in the prince's residence, she asked, "Where's His Highness?"

"His Highness…" She paused and let go of An Xiaoning's hand before saying, "Miss, you just woke up, I'll bring you a basin of water to wash your face."

"I'm asking you, where's His Highness? Why can't you tell me?" An Xiaoning urged, grabbing her again.

"No… I'm just afraid that you'll be upset and angry and end up crying again after you hear what I tell you."

Shaking her head, An Xiaoning said, "I won't. I won't get angry or upset. Just tell me straight."

Yu Jiao did not believe her words at all because An Xiaoning had been crying secretly and was out of sorts because of Jin Qingyan's political marriage with the princess.

However, Yu Jiao decided to tell her, thinking that she must be in a better mood since she was smiling. "I heard from the other servants that His Majesty has decided to make the princess of another nation His Highness' concubine. The imperial edict went out yesterday."

Yu Jiao thought that she would tear up and throw a fit. To her surprise, An Xiaoing said, "Oh, I see."

Yu Jiao felt extremely worried and said, "Miss, His Highness tried to see you in the past few days, but you either lock yourself in or chase him away. I think the love between you and His Highness is true and it's better that you talk to him about it properly."

"You have a point. So where is he now?"

"His Highness is not in his residence now. I asked around this morning and found out that His Highness has gone to the palace. He's not back yet."

"Yu Jiao, bring me some water. I want to wash my face."

"Alright, please give me a moment, Miss."

An Xiaoning could not help but feel amused at the sight of Yu Jiao walking away and taking tiny steps.

She looked away and returned inside. A political marriage? If that's the case, it was probably the emperor's decision, not his.

Yu Jiao returned with a basin of water and some breakfast. An Xiaoning asked her if she had eaten yet, to which she said yes.

After breakfast, An Xiaoning asked, "I can't remember how many days I've been staying here for. Do you remember?"

"I've been here with you for less than ten days. You've been here for two weeks, Miss."

"We've been here for a while, it's time we…" An Xiaoning paused intentionally, obviously hinting that it was inappropriate to keep staying here.
