Chapter 229: Clubs (2/2)
”Young man, what's your name?”
”My name is Long Wang,” he replied.
”Long Wang, for my senior apprentice's poor behavior, I would like to give you this,” she said while handing him a special golden token. ”If you are still interested in joining our club, please pass your Qi through it and you'll official become a member of this club.
Both Zhao Pan and Bai Fan couldn't believe what they were hearing. Even if the other recruiter was being rude to him, that still didn't mean he should be allowed to join the guild without doing any sort of talent assessment test.
The moment Ru Ji realized what she was doing, her eyes widened in disbelief.
”Young miss, you can't-” Ru Ji said, but before she could finish her words, the young recruiter looked back at her with a terrifying look, reminding her not to say another word.
Zhao Pan was actually a bit annoyed by this. Just a second ago she was convinced that Xiao Fang was having it even harder than she was in the inner court, but it turned out that he was the most privileged bastard she had ever seen.
”Would it be alright if my friends got a token as well?” Xiao Fang suddenly asked.
The young girl seemed a bit reluctant to do as he requested because she only wanted to do him a favor.
”Sure,” she finally agreed to it.
Ru Ji could only silently watch with a bleeding heart as her fellow apprentice gave out spots to their club for free and without having to participate in their trials.
Bai Fan didn't understand what was going on, but she still went along with it, and graciously accepted the golden identity token from the young girl. However, when it was Zhao Pan's turn, she refused to take it.
”I must refuse. I have no interest in joining this club,” Zhao Pan said.
Even though it was true that she didn't find the club all that interesting, the real reason why she didn't accept the fast-pass invitation to the prestigious club was because she didn't want to owe Xiao Fang any favors.
”Come by the club tomorrow and I'll give you a proper tour of the place. All the clubs in this building will be open after class and will close 4 hours later. You may come and go whenever you like, but all the equipment owned by this club must remain inside,” the young recruiter explained.
”I understand,” Xiao Fang replied simply.
”Does that mean... you'll come by tomorrow?” she asked in a softer tone.
Xiao Fang finally smiled charmingly then said, ”I'll see you tomorrow, Xue Li.”
When Xue Li heard her name being said, she couldn't stop herself from smiling.
”See you tomorrow, Long Wang.”
Xiao Fang nodded, then left with Zhao Pan and Bai Fan.
Despite how they acted at first, it eventually became clear to everyone that they were more than strangers. This became evident the moment Xiao Fang said her name without her even telling them what it was.
Ru Ji suddenly began to experience a sickening feeling in her stomach as regret began to kick in. If she had only known that he had a relationship with Xue Li, she definitely wouldn't have acted the way she did.
