”What’s with the little princess today? She seems to be in a good mood,” Mei Huizi asked with a loving smile.

”No, not at all!” Ozawa Miwa blushed and said, ”It’s just because I saw Granny Huizi, so I’m this happy!”

”We see each other every day, what’s there to be happy about seeing me?” Although she said this, the smile on Mei Huizi’s face grew even wider, showing that she was quite pleased with Ozawa Miwa’s compliment.

After speaking, Mei Huizi took a beautiful dress out of the wardrobe and said, ”This is your outfit for tomorrow, there will be guests coming.”

Ozawa Miwa frowned; these days, scenes like this were almost a regular occurrence, and the so-called guests were all people of high status, well-known families, or powerful figures from the country.

To be honest, Ozawa Miwa had a deep-seated aversion to these inexplicable meetings. She could not understand why, after being praised by these guests and responding with polite humility, she would be left out like a decorative vase.

What meaning do these meetings have for her?

After a moment of silence, Ozawa Miwa tentatively asked, ”Can I not go?”

”Do you think you can?” Mei Huizi lovingly patted Ozawa Miwa’s head and comforted her, ”Don’t think too much, you don’t even need to speak, just sit and listen.”

This time, Ozawa Miwa suddenly lifted her head, looked Mei Huizi straight in the eyes, and said, ”Granny Huizi, I have something to ask you, please be honest with me!”

A flash of panic flickered in Mei Huizi’s eyes for a brief moment before she returned to normal, ”Alright, ask away!”

For some reason, from Ozawa Miwa’s gaze, Mei Huizi always felt as if this pure-hearted little princess had some premonition about something...

Sure enough, Ozawa Miwa’s question soon came.

”May I ask, do some of the recent events have anything to do with me?”

Mei Huizi sighed inwardly, yet maintained her expression, ”The little princess is overthinking, how could they have anything to do with you, it’s just necessary royal etiquette!”

”No!”

Ozawa Miwa immediately determined that Mei Huizi was brushing her off, and said, ”Granny Huizi, you’ve watched me grow up, you’re like a mother to me, so even if something bad is going to happen, please let me be mentally prepared, okay?!”

The almost pleading voice, combined with the words, made Mei Huizi’s heart ache as though someone had seized it. She hurriedly excused herself, ”The little princess is overthinking, you should rest early!”

”Can you really bear to watch the person you raised from childhood be completely ignorant of her impending fate?” At this moment, Ozawa Miwa already had a vague answer, but she still wanted confirmation.

Mei Huizi paused in her steps, her face full of difficulty despite facing away from Ozawa Miwa, ”Little princess, do you really want to know?”

”Yes!”

Ozawa Miwa replied resolutely.

”Sigh...”

Mei Huizi sighed deeply, as if making a great decision, and said, ”Actually, you should have almost guessed it. This time, it’s your father wanting to find a home for you!”

”A home?!”

Ozawa Miwa widened her eyes in disbelief. Even though she had somewhat guessed it, hearing it with her own ears was still hard to believe.

”Why wasn’t I told beforehand?” Ozawa Miwa said angrily, ”Since it’s a home for me, it should at least be with my consent!”

Hearing this indignant protest, Mei Huizi felt even guiltier. She had always regarded her as a flower in a greenhouse, and telling her this suddenly was indeed too much to take in.

Mei Huizi’s eyes shifted quickly, but she finally said, ”Do you remember the last time you asked me something?”

”Now I can give you the correct answer, though it may be cruel for you, but it is the truth!”

Mei Huizi dared not turn to look at Ozawa Miwa, and only said, ”Perhaps ordinary girls have the right to pursue their happiness and find a satisfactory home, but as a princess of the royal family, you won’t have the opportunity to decide this on your own.”

”In fact, your father has been very good to you. You should have noticed that in these recent meetings, each person has had a young man beside them, right?”

Mei Huizi said, ”Your father has already secured the greatest extent of your autonomy; you can choose anyone among them.”

With that, Mei Huizi quickly left the room, even though she told herself that a quick pain is better than prolonged agony, the tears at the corner of her eyes had already fallen.

As Ozawa Miwa had said, the little princess she had raised was like her own daughter, and no mother in the world can bear to marry her daughter to an unsuitable man.

However, some things are predestined, after all, she was born into royalty!

Inside the room, the blank-eyed Ozawa Miwa stood rooted to the spot for a long time as if she had lost her soul, with only her clenched fists betraying her inner anger...

The next morning, Xiao Tian and Lin Bingxuan each stood with their suitcases at the villa entrance, waiting for Melinda to retrieve the car from the garage.

”Take this!” Ghost Face extended his hand, holding a small rhombus-shaped crystal, looking like a miniature version of the Five Elements crystal.

”What is this?!”

Xiao Tian was momentarily stunned, but he had an idea of what it was.

”That’s right, this is the smaller version of the Five Elements crystal, obviously it’s just something I made myself.” Ghost Face said as he handed the crystal to Xiao Tian.

”Inside, it contains all the Five Elements crystal energy I’ve extracted so far. Carrying it helps alleviate your genetic collapse.”

”Additionally, besides stabilizing genetic collapse, if introduced into the body, it temporarily allows for genetic repair, and your strength will be restored temporarily.” Ghost Face explained, ”The duration it lasts depends on your energy consumption.”

”Although unlike Genetic Lock Unlocking pills, it has no side effects.” Ghost Face seriously advised, ”I still have to remind you, according to my estimates, this small Five Elements crystal can sustain your peak strength for at most half an hour.”

”Every use shortens its time, after all, it’s not a real Five Elements crystal and cannot self-supply its energy!”

Xiao Tian accepted it with a smile just as Melinda, driving a red sports car, stopped at the villa’s gate.

After saying their goodbyes, the three drove to the airport.

”This time, focus fully on finding out where that familiar feeling comes from, don’t waste energy worrying about us!” Xiao Tian said to Melinda in the driver’s seat.

After thinking for a moment, he added, ”If anything happens, call us immediately.”
