What to do if you receive the wrong package?

Inside the room, a tall figure was cautiously walking towards the door. Hua Yin and Zuo Shi glanced at the other people who were still fast asleep, and quietly pushed the door open and went out.

Sitting in the corridor, looking up at the starry sky, I couldn't help but sigh, "Tsk tsk, it's been so long since I've had this much peace and quiet."

Suddenly, her fingers touched something cold. Looking down, she saw it was the jade pendant at her waist. She took it off and examined it closely, but her thoughts drifted back to that dinner party.

She'd always had a good tolerance for alcohol, and with that stroke of luck, she'd drunk almost the least of the five. Adding to that, the traffic noise that night was terrible, so she didn't sleep well. Just as she was debating whether to get up and close the balcony window, she suddenly noticed her jade pendant begin to glow, and then everyone's jade pendants started emitting light as well.

Hua Yin was startled and wanted to wake everyone immediately, but she seemed to be frozen in place. She couldn't move or speak, and could only watch helplessly as everyone was slowly enveloped in light. When she awoke again, she was in this very place.

Who hasn't read a few time-travel novels when they were young? Hua Yin knew immediately that she had time-traveled, but unfortunately it was a soul transmigration. Fortunately, the appearance of this body was exactly what Hua Yin liked.

I calculated that she had been here for three or four days already. Apart from eating, drinking, sleeping, and using the restroom, she had been studying this and that. It was much more tiring than when I took the college entrance exam. Didn't people say that in ancient times, a woman's virtue lay in her lack of talent? Why bother with all this fancy stuff?

Thinking of this, Hua Yin sighed softly. Based on her observations, her residence was located on the west side, in a place called Xiyuan (West Garden). Most of the girls there came from good families, and they were all quite beautiful. Outside Xiyuan were three other places, two similar in nature, but one called Wanfeng Chaohuang Tower, which was said to be the dream destination for all the girls.

Thinking of this, Hua Yin lowered her eyes. It was best to avoid places like this. But the most urgent thing now was how to leave. Since the jade pendant had brought her here, the other four must have also traveled through time.

The problem is that we don't know anything right now; it's harder than finding a needle in a haystack. We can't just go around asking everyone, "Are you my U-Love-Me?" We might get arrested by the same crazy person before we even find them.

Oh no, the word "mental illness" probably didn't exist in ancient times; it should be "madman." Thinking of this, Hua Yin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Qingrao, what are you doing out there all by yourself?" A soft voice interrupted Hua Yin's thoughts. Hua Yin turned around and saw Ya Rui's worried expression, which warmed her heart. During these past few days, thanks to Ya Rui's guidance and help, she had gained a general understanding of her current situation. It was also from Ya Rui that she learned her transmigrated body was named Hua Qingrao, a distant niece of Marquis Qi Yuan. Because she had helped Ya Rui before, their relationship had become quite good.

Before she transmigrated, the original owner of the shell had a verbal argument with Su Yuanming of Dongyuan, and they both fell into the water and lost consciousness. When she woke up again, the body inside had become Hua Yin.

Hua Yin waved to Ya Rui and whispered, "Ya Rui, do you believe in time travel?"

Ya Rui was taken aback by Hua Yin's question, but then she realized what she meant and said with a smile, "If time travel really existed, I think you would definitely travel back in time by tomorrow's dance training."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ya Rui saw Hua Qingrao's "I'm going crazy" expression. She patted Hua Yin's shoulder with great sympathy and comforted her, "Alright. Go back to sleep quickly, so you'll have enough energy for dance training tomorrow."

Hua Yin sighed helplessly and could only slowly follow Ya Rui back to her room to rest.

Lying in bed watching Ya Rui fall asleep almost immediately, Hua Yin chuckled to herself: Actually, you're the one who's sleepy, aren't you? But the thought of tomorrow afternoon's dance training made her even more melancholy.

Although she didn't dance much in modern times, she could at least handle the morning exercises in school and the New Year's Day performance after starting work. How come now that she's in a different body, not only is she uncoordinated, but she also suffers from backaches, leg cramps, and other aches and pains all the time? Is this girl calcium deficient?

It's a shame that she used to always envy other people's delicate and graceful figures. In fact, having a healthy and strong body is more important than anything else!

The next day, Hua Yin was woken up by Ya Rui shaking her. Already grumpy in the morning, she was terrified when she saw Ya Rui's bright, sunny smile. Before she could even ask what was wrong, she was urged to wash and get dressed.

After successfully stopping Ya Rui from applying makeup to her face, Hua Yin learned the truth.

The Wanfeng Chaohuang Tower opens today.

Oh, that's like the opening of a branch of a popular online store, where fans flock to check it out.

Hua Yin tugged at the belt around her waist, replying somewhat helplessly, "Okay, okay. Don't get agitated."

"Oh my! How could we not be excited? All the girls from the West Garden, North Garden, and even the East Garden yearn to enter the Phoenix Tower. Only by entering the Phoenix Tower can one be named a Master of Beauty, directly receiving the title from the Empress, and bringing unparalleled glory to one's family. Only then..."

Just as Hua Yin was wondering how to interrupt Ya Rui's passionate commentary, Ya Rui suddenly stopped. Following Ya Rui's gaze, Hua Yin couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips: so she saw a pretty girl. She was about to tease Ya Rui when she saw Ya Rui suddenly tense up, seriously shielding her behind her. Unusually stern, Ya Rui questioned, "Su Yuanming, what are you trying to do now? Today is the opening day of the building; you'd better behave yourself."

Hua Yin stood behind Ya Rui, looking completely indifferent. She even openly sized up the three girls opposite her. All three were dressed in light blue casual clothes, presumably from the East Garden. Hua Yin's intuition told her that the one in the middle should be Su Yuanming. But the name sounded so familiar. Just as Hua Yin was trying to remember, she heard Ya Rui say, "Last time you were the one who caused Qing Rao to fall into the water. What are you planning to do this time?"

Then it dawned on her—this was the original owner's nemesis! Hua Yin carefully examined Su Yuanming. Her long, black hair was styled into a neat ponytail, revealing her smooth forehead, and the wisps of hair around her ears added a touch of softness to her capable appearance. It must be said, a beauty is a beauty; even in such simple attire, her exquisite face made her stand out.

"No, I can't boost their morale while diminishing my own. The original owner was quite beautiful too, with fair skin, a pretty face, and captivating peach blossom eyes." Thinking of this, Hua Yin smiled and stepped out from behind Ya Rui, saying to everyone, "Everyone, how have you been?" Although Hua Yin appeared calm and collected on the surface, she was actually quite excited inside. All those palace intrigue and domestic power struggle novels she used to read at home were finally going to come in handy! Just as she was silently rubbing her hands together in her mind, Su Yuanming across from her smiled at her and then turned and left.

Ya Rui noticed Su Yuanming acting strangely today and was about to ask Qing Rao about it when she saw Qing Rao's hurt expression, which made her even more puzzled. Aren't these two usually at odds, always ready to explode at the slightest provocation? Why are they so harmonious today…?

But then she thought, Qingrao had changed since she woke up from the water, and perhaps Su Yuanming was the same. Just as she realized this, Ya Rui suddenly remembered that today's focus was the Phoenix Tower. She immediately pulled Hua Yin towards the tower, saying as she ran, "Oh no, we're going to miss out on good seats!" Hua Yin, being dragged along, secretly rolled her eyes, silently thinking: It's just a talent show, what's so exciting about it? Maybe they've already secretly made connections and secured the spots. After all, there are plenty of these kinds of shows in modern times; did this kind of show originate in ancient times?!

The moment the two girls ran into the courtyard, Hua Yin understood that Chaohuang Tower truly lived up to its reputation. Moreover, the girls from the East, West, and North Gardens were gathered downstairs, and each one of them was more beautiful than the last—it was more impressive than a girl group debuting!

"Tsk tsk tsk," Hua Yin clicked her tongue. "Since she's already transmigrated, why can't she be the emperor? With three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines, who wouldn't love a beautiful older sister!"
