Chapter 245: Ru Jis Gift (2/2)
”Thank you, Xue Li. I appreciate all the help you've given me,” Xiao Fang thanked her.
Hearing him say that made her feel so good inside, almost as if she had been doing all of this just to hear him say those few words. She eventually left, then Xiao Fang and Bai Fan finally got to work.
Since Xiao Fang had already learned the basics from Xue Li he spent a few minutes teaching it to her. Once she understood the fundamentals, Bai Fan looked through the inscription book till she found an inscription she thought would be easy, then they started learning it together.
Xiao Fang and Bai Fan had such great chemistry together, anyone watching them from a far would think that they were a couple. That included Xue Li, so she couldn't help but feel a bit jealous before she left.

Meanwhile on the top floor, Ru Ji was in the middle of casting a formation when she saw Xue Li arrive.
”Xue Li, it's unlike you to come to the club late. Did you sleep in?” Ru Ji asked.
”No, I was just waiting to give Long Wang a tour of the place,” she replied.
Ru Ji made a mistake in her formation when she heard Xiao Fang's name, it reminded her of the incident that took place the other day.
'Too think that Xue Li would even wait for him to give him a tour. Just what kind of backer does he have? Is he so special that even Xue Li needs to be polite to him,' Ru Ji thought.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she made a terrible mistake by offending him yesterday.
”Is he still downstairs?” Ru Ji asked.
”Un, he should be on the first floor with Bai Fan,” Xue Li replied.
Xue Li didn't want to think about it anymore because it was making her feel jealous.
Hearing her say that he was practicing with Bai Fan made Ru Ji's heart sink. She thought only a fool would think that his background was ordinary to have such a good relationship with both Xue Li and Bai Fan, both of whom were daughters of different Supreme Elders.
Ru Ji grabbed her towel then went into the change room. After making herself look nice, she finally went downstairs to look for Xiao Fang. After she found him, she couldn't help but think that she was a fool for dressing up so nicely for a blind man.
She tried to think about what to say, then finally approached Xiao Fang. However, the moment his head turned to her, she suddenly froze.
”Ru Ji, is it?” Xiao Fang said in a casual tone.
Ru Ji couldn't help but feel a bit shaken by the fact that he even bothered to remember her name.
Bai Fan turned around then slightly frowned when she saw Ru Ji. Just the other day, she witnessed Ru Ji disrespecting Xiao Fang, so she didn't like her very much.
Seeing that Bai Fan was upset with her appearance here, Ru Ji quickly bowed.
”Please accept my apology,” she said before taking out an inscription book.
The other girls on the first floor were baffled by what they were seeing. Ru Ji, a highly admired member of the club, was bowing to and gifting a valuable inscription book to Xiao Fang.
...
”Who is he? Why have I never heard of him?”
”He kind of looks like my type.”
”Wait, isn't that Ru Ji's advanced inscription book? Why is she giving him such a valuable item?”
...
Xiao Fang, again, didn't care about apologetic words. The truth was, he had almost forgotten about his encounter with Ru Ji the other day until she brought it up.
Xiao Fang didn't really understand why she would give him something so valuable, but he took it off her hands anyway.

Once Ru Ji left, Xiao Fang couldn't help but notice that more eyes were on him than before.
'So much for keeping a low profile. At this rate, there won't be a single person who doesn't know who I am by the end of the month.'
It didn't matter what he did, it seemed that attention would follow him wherever he went.
