Seeing that Yu Huang had misunderstood, the manager hurriedly explained, "It's not about the deposit fee. It's just that our hotel rarely encounters such a request. We're worried that we'll make a mistake, so we have to verify it with you in detail." The female manager then said cautiously, "If you confirm that you want to send this letter eight years later, the Starlight Building will definitely do as you wish. Please rest assured."
"Then I'll have to trouble your shop." Yu Huang thanked her and was about to close the door when she suddenly heard the female manager ask softly, "Madam Yu Huang, eight years later… everything will be settled. Can this letter still be sent?"
The female manager seemed to be asking if this letter could be sent, but she was actually asking Yu Huang if the three thousand worlds would still exist eight years later.
Yu Huang turned around and saw the manager's uneasy expression. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Her lips curled into an aloof but comforting smile.
Yu Huang said, "Believe me, eight years later, it will be sent to my lover's side through the fastest spaceship."
Upon hearing this, the female manager instantly felt much more at ease. "Thank you, Madam."
Yu Huang was Prime Emperor Divine Miracle's disciple. Since she said that this letter could be sent eight years later, it definitely could.
After watching the manager leave, Yu Huang closed the door. When she turned around, the smile on her face disappeared completely.
She walked to the bathroom and turned off the light. In the pitch-black bathroom glass, her eyes were constantly emitting golden light. Yu Huang pressed her glabella and slowly closed her eyes. When she
opened them again, her eyes had already returned to normal.

Yu Huang slept soundly and only woke up when it was almost dark. After she opened her eyes and looked at the orange-red sunset outside the curtains, for a moment, she couldn't tell if it was morning or evening.
Yu Huang suspected that she had slept all the way to the morning of the preliminary round.
She woke up and hurriedly pulled open the curtains. Seeing that it was sunset outside, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Leaning against the French window, Yu Huang stared at the orange clouds in the sky as she daydreamed. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and Jing Jiaren's voice sounded outside the room. "Yu Huang, are you there?"
Yu Huang shook her head.
After she sobered up a little, she said, "I'm here. Wait a moment."
She walked barefoot to open the door.
Seeing the door open, Jing Jiaren looked up and saw Yu Huang.
Yu Huang was wearing a white negligee. The negligee on her shoulder was very slender, as if it could be broken with a light tug. Her cleavage was faintly discernible, and her long black hair was draped over her fair shoulders in a disheveled manner.
Jing Jiaren thought to herself, "Sheng Xiao is so lucky."
Jing Jiaren looked away slightly to avoid the view of Yu Huang's chest and asked in a low voice, "Have you been sleeping until now?"
Yu Huang wasn't shy at all.
After she invited Jing Jiaren in, she closed the door. Then, she turned around and walked to the bedroom as she said, "I'm very tired today and I keep feeling sleepy."
The setting sun passed through the French window and sprinkled on Yu Huang's body. It shone through the silk nightgown that was as thin as a cicada's wings, making her sexy body look even more seductive. Jing Jiaren was mesmerized. She couldn't help but lower her head and size up her own waist and chest. Then, she pursed her lips silently.
Yu Huang opened the wardrobe. As she chose the clothes she wanted to change into, she asked Jing Jiaren, "What's the matter?"
Jing Jiaren glanced at the brightly colored clothes in the wardrobe and said, "Are you free tonight? If there's nothing else, I want to take you out for a meal." Seeing that Yu Huang suddenly stopped, Jing Jiaren added, "With my father."
"The entire Jing family will remember your kindness in giving us the Divination Ultimate Art. It's all thanks to that Divination Ultimate Art that I was able to reach the eighth-stage Prophet cultivation level this time. Before you came to the Divination Continent, my father kept inviting you to a meal to express his gratitude. Coincidentally, this is a rare opportunity tonight. He asked me to ask you if you were willing to come."
Yu Huang, who had originally planned to find a comfortable sportswear to change into, touched a light purple dress. Then, she nodded as she replied, "Since Patriarch Jing has invited me, how can I not go?"
"Then I'll reply to my father now and let him prepare." Jing Jiaren looked at Yu Huang's cabinet that was filled with beautiful clothes and said, "You look best in red." After a pause, she said, "I remember that my aunt liked red the most."
Yu Huang wasn't sure if Jing Jiaren was testing her or hinting at something, but she replied, "A beautiful woman looks good in anything." With that said, she took off the purple dress and asked Jing Jiaren, "Is this dress appropriate?"
Jing Jiaren nodded. "Yes."
"Then wear it."
Jing Jiaren went back to prepare.
Yu Huang chose a purple pearl-studded long dress. It was round-necked and had a water droplet- shaped white spot between the collar and her chest. It was elegant and dignified, but chic and youthful as well.
At the thought of meeting her uncle, Yu Huang wanted to dress up more beautifully.
She sat down and put on makeup, but she felt that not only did not the foundation make her complexion look rosier, but it made her complexion look dull. In the end, Yu Huang simply took off her makeup and traced her eyebrows. Then, she put on lipstick and tied her black hair behind her head with a purple satin bow clip.
Yu Huang picked a pair of light purple deep-sea pearl earrings from the exquisite jewelry Mo Xiao had given her and put them on.
This attire immediately added a hint of gentleness to Yu Huang, making her look more approachable.
As Yu Huang sized herself up seriously in the mirror, she felt quite satisfied.
She was so beautiful that she felt amazed by herself.
As soon as this thought flashed across her mind, Yu Huang pursed her lips and sneered. "Look at you. You can raise a thousand pounds with one hand, but you're still acting so prissy. Pfft, how shameless." When Jing Jiaren saw Yu Huang after she dressed up, her eyes lit up.
"The Jing family is quite a distance away from Jingdu City. Considering that there's still a competition tomorrow, my father booked a private room at a upscale restaurant near the Starlight Building. We'll go over now." They took a cab to the restaurant. On the way, Jing Jiaren introduced Jingdu City's history to Yu Huang.
Jing Jiaren had always been a taciturn person. When she told Yu Huang about the local customs, she seemed like the tour guide of a tourist area.
Yu Huang felt sleepy as she listened.
Seeing that Yu Huang was bored, Jing Jiaren realized that her explanation was probably a little boring, so she simply shut her mouth and lowered her head. "Sorry, I'm not very good at telling stories."
Yu Huang chuckled and said, "When you were in school, you were probably rarely called on by the teacher."
Jing Jiaren said, "I've never been to school before."
