When Xiao Yunhua woke up, she was in the dimensional s.p.a.ce of the system again . She was confused because the last thing she remembered was falling asleep in the arms of Zhou Ming and hearing the familiar sound of when she unlocked a target .
She saw an enthusiastic Xiao Taotao fluttering in her direction . "Congratulations Host! You completed the special target and gained five hundred thousand points since he was practically the king of the modern world or the country you were in . However, since he was a special target, it"s doubled and your current balance is 1,046,500 points . "

It seemed like she scored gold with this one . "Wait since I"m back here . . . Does that mean I"m dead!? How did that happen?"
"You were shot by Jing Xue and it finally triggered love from your target . " So her death was what finally moved that heartless man? He wasn"t even marrying her out of love, more like an unhealthy obsession they both harbored for each other .
"You can pick from the list below for a skill since you"ve completed another target . " A holographic screen appeared in front of Xiao Yunhua and she saw the choices .
Hacking, design, and singing?
They all seemed like useless skills to her and she wished she had better alternatives . In the end, she chose singing and she felt her throat ache with pain until she cleared her throat . She tested it out by singing a high note and she was shocked to hear the voice of an angel . Then she tried low and it still sounded incomparable to the ears . Maybe singing wasn"t as bad as she thought .
"Are you ready to move onto your next world?" Xiao Taotao asked excitedly . Her host this time had not only completed a world, but also finished a special target which was much more difficult than a regular mission on her first world . She definitely had some potential .
"Taotao . . . can I see what happened afterwards first?" Xiao Taotao was confused on why Xiao Yunhua made such a request but the rulebooks didn"t deny allowing them either . The little fairy thought it would be fine to show her the world aftermaths .
When Xiao Taotao snapped her fingers, Xiao Yunhua found herself in the spiritual form standing in the world .

To think that Madam Xu had already disappeared before she could see her . . . Xiao Yunhua felt sad that she couldn"t see her again . Though they had met for a short amount of time, Xiao Yunhua still felt indebted to Madam Xu for telling her the truth about this body"s parents and for fulfilling her last wish .
Xiao Yunhua looked around and realized that she was the closest to the mansion of w.a.n.g Yaowan so she decided to check on them first . She froze when she saw a little boy—that looked to be a couple of years old run—around enthusiastically with Ni Ming gently smiling as she watched him . w.a.n.g Yaowan came up and Xiao Yunhua couldn"t believe that his infamous cold aura was so gentle now as he stared at his wife and son . Xiao Yunhua sneaked inside and checked the date .
It was already five years afterwards! Five years since her death at the engagement party, no wonder their son was a few years old . Seeing them healthy and well, she decided to leave . Her spiritual form could not be seen or heard, but she still softly patted the top of the little boy"s head and smiled nostalgically at the other two people, before leaving .
A couple of minutes later, Ni Ming spoke, "She was here, I could feel it . "
w.a.n.g Yaowan neither accepted nor denied her words . It has been five years since her death and not a day went by when they all didn"t miss her . His complicated "feelings" for her had faded and he just missed her as a friend . He hoped that she lived well in the afterlife .
"We should probably go visit her in a few hours . " He said and she nodded as she picked up their son and went back inside .
Meanwhile Xiao Yunhua was wandering around and then she saw Magnolia penthouse . Out of curiosity, she decided to check inside to see how Zhou Feng was doing, only to see a woman being flung outside . "Zhou Young Master! Please—"
"Get out . " A harsh voice said as he stepped out, ignoring the woman and closing the door behind him, ignoring her tears .
Xiao Yunhua saw his cold expression and s.h.i.+vered . He was usually cold, but he had turned so cold that it scared her . No longer wanting to see him, she quickly disappeared . What Xiao Yunhua didn"t see was the way Zhou Feng turned around and told her to stop crying .
"Young master, I knew that you liked me back—"
"I won"t allow you to cry on her death anniversary . " The woman"s honey-colored eyes were almost identical to Xiao Yunhua"s eyes . He couldn"t handle seeing the tears coming from those eyes of hers . Otherwise, he didn"t care if this woman cried . He wanted to go visit her and ignored the woman"s pleas . Seeing Zhou Feng leave, the woman cried harder . She had been by his side for a few years and he couldn"t forget this "her" he mentioned . She also knew the real reason he hadn"t completely shunned her is because she looks similar to that woman . But that had not stopped her from trying to make him love her back . . . and if using her similar appearance was the key, she would use it forever .
At the moment, Xiao Yunhua kept walking until she saw Zhou Lang . He was in an elaborate building that was named L Corporations and was walking out of the building with his a.s.sistant following him .
L Corporations? That couldn"t be the name of his own company? Did Zhou Lang really create such a large company in five years? He certainly had the talents like his eldest brother, Xiao Yunhua thought as she followed him .
"Sir, today is the day you wanted me to remind you—"
"I already know . Reschedule my meeting to tomorrow, I"ll be back later . " The a.s.sistant sighed as she went back in the building to make a couple of phone calls . Xiao Yunhua saw him get in a car and quickly sneaked inside, driving to the cemetery . Xiao Yunhua got out and followed him until he stopped . She saw Zhou Feng there along with Ni Ming and w.a.n.g Yaowan . They had silently stared at each other, but they all knew the real reason they were seeing each other at that moment—all for her . Today was the fifth year of her death and each carried their own flowers .
Xiao Yunhua couldn"t see Qiang Yue and felt a bit disappointed but relieved . Disappointed because he didn"t come, but relieved because he had gotten over her . . . she hoped . Her eyes fell on Ni Ming who kneeled at her grave with flowers and tears in her eyes .
It still shocked her to see her own grave . She had been in this world for so long, it almost felt like she belonged there too . But as her soul watched them grieve, she realized that this would be the ending to each and every world . . . she could only watch them cry and grieve . . . and she could not truly feel death .
Seeing them so miserable broke her heart since she knew them well . She kneeled next to her grave and tried to write something in the dirt . Since she was in her spiritual form, she couldn"t do anything and that made her frustrated .
"Taotao help me . "
>
"Please, this"ll be the last time that I act selfish in this world . "
A surge of energy flittered through her body and she could now touch the dirt . As she was writing down words, she heard a gasp . She turned around and saw them looking at her with wide eyes .
"Y-Yunhua . . ?" Ni Ming reached to grab her hand but hand went across her like she was touching air .
"You can see me?"
Zhou Feng tried to hug her but once again, like Ni Ming, he hugged air and Xiao Yunhua wasn"t touched .
"Silly girl . . . we miss you so much!" Ni Ming exclaimed, her tears still pouring down the side of her cheeks .
Xiao Yunhua smiled as she looked at their son, who eyed her curiously . "I miss everyone too . But my only purpose was to tell you all to stop grieving and . . . be happy . "
"But how can we be happy without you?" Zhou Lang muttered softly .
She sighed, "You"re supposed to be happy without me . I"m not even from your world—" she suddenly choked and pain erupted in her body . They all rushed worriedly in her direction but she waved her hand to dismiss them .
It seemed like she had said too much and the system was punis.h.i.+ng her . The system rung with a reminder, telling her that she had thirty minutes remaining .
"What do you mean by that?" w.a.n.g Yaowan asked her, but she shook her head .
"Never mind . I-I don"t have much time . I have to get going . Everyone . . . thank you and please, your happiness is my final wish . " She closed her eyes and she was invisible again .
The people were stunned and thought they had seen an illusion . But as they"ve all seen her, they knew that it was real and she had really appeared before them . Seeing as she dearly wished for them to not be so depressed, they decided to oblige and the atmosphere had eased a bit . Since Zhou Lang was already at the cemetery, he decided to visit his grandfather"s grave as well .
As for Xiao Yunhua, she was leaving the cemetery, only to see Qiang Yue with a woman as they were in front of . . . Ling Xiu"s grave?
"I only came to pay respects to her . . . but I couldn"t deny the filial duty to visit you as well . . . mother . " She didn"t notice the little palm tree keychain that he was gripping in his hands as he spoke .
Xiao Yunhua was stunned at the revelation . Such a shocking turn of events, she turned around to leave before she heard anymore secrets . However, her curiosity got the best of her and she ended up asking Xiao Taotao about the truth behind Qiang Yue"s words .
She was surprised to find out that the greedy Ling Xiu had a son and Zhou Hua wasn"t actually her daughter, meaning Zhou Yaoyao had no blood relations to the Zhou family . Speaking of the bratty granddaughter, Zhou Ming had kicked her and her mother out and they had gone abroad and started a small bakery, where they lived humbly despite their luxurious lifestyle before .
Suddenly, the reminder that she had ten minutes left reminded Xiao Yunhua that she still had one more person to check on—Zhou Ming . She couldn"t find him at his company so she went to his penthouse, only to see everything dim . Just as she finally saw a peek, her body started to fade away and she didn"t have a chance to truly see his conditions .
If Xiao Yunhua had seen him, she would"ve seen that he had definitely matured and turned more cruel as he had annihilated the Jing family for revenge in her favor . She would"ve also seen him, at that moment, holding her picture with a dark and evil glint in his infamous black eyes .
She would"ve seen him turn back and sigh, three words she would have never expected to be released from his mouth to be said . . . three words that changed his heartless persona .
But as Xiao Yunhua didn"t see all this, she was instead back in the dimensional s.p.a.ce with an eager Xiao Taotao .
"Host! On the count of three, you"ll be in the next world!"
Xiao Yunhua began to mentally count in her head to three seconds . When they pa.s.sed, she felt a gut-wrenching pain, and then she woke up . . .
