(Feng Jiang Lei's POV)

"You can't be so sure about falling in love Lei. Life is unpredictable, who would even believe us when we say we transmigrated into an ancient era. Do you think we won't be admitted in a mental institution after that testimony?" She said

"You got a point, so keep it as a secret when you go back" I answered

"Are you not coming back with me?" She asked

"I don't know either, I remember drowning, locked in a ship in the middle of Bermuda Triangle. Who knows if I am still alive?" I am anticipating that this is already my second life, it's impossible for me to go back to the modern era, because my life there is already uncertain.

Someone is knocking at the door.

"Come in"

"Greetings young mistress and to the princess, we have a guest. He has requested to see you, and insisted on dining with you. What should we do about this?" Shopkeeper Sheng asked

"Guide him in, let him stay here with us." I answered

"As you wish young mistress, this servant shall excuse himself."

I nodded as shopkeeper Sheng left.

"Why are you leading someone here without even asking his identity? What about our reputation? What if he is an assassin? A serial killer? A drug addict? An ex-con? A rapist?" The princess asked

"I want to be surprised, it's not often that I receive visitors. And the way shopkeeper Sheng spoke about that person, he must be special. Who knows if he will be passable as your prince charming! Don't think too much out of the book Daiyu"

"There must be a loose screw in your head Lei." She chuckled

"There might be, at least in comparison with you, your head screws might have been gone missing" I joke

"You're no fun" she said

"At least I am letting you eat freely."

"Fine, fine, you win!"

We are hearing someone knocking again.

"Come in" the princess said

"Lord Fubu Chen has arrived." Shopkeeper Sheng said

I ordered shopkeeper Sheng to serve exquisite meals and bring the most expensive tea. When he's gone I stare at the man sitting in front of us. Then back at the frozen princess.

"You..." The princess softly spoke

"Hey, don't drool over him. I know he might be your next husband, but you're ruining your image princess" I joked

"He's..." The princess muttered to herself, unsure if the stranger in front of us is the same man who saved her

"So Lord Fubu, what brings you in our humble abode?" I asked

"Her" he pointed at the princess

"What about her?" I asked

"Help me propose a marriage to the emperor" he dead panned

"Princess, did you take advantage of this noble lord? I think he wants you to take responsibility for your actions."

"Indeed she took advantage of this lord" Lord Fubu said

"Shameless!" The princess angrily sip her tea
