”You sell perfumes, right?”

”I do.”

”Do you mind if I take a look?”

Yuan Fei was surprised that he was even curious about her perfumes at all, but thinking about it now, why else would he ask her to come.

”Not at all,” she replied.

She quickly took her perfume bottles out then put them on his desk. Despite her attempt to present them nicely, the containers were all plain, and uninteresting.

Lai Yun frowned when she saw them, but she didn't say anything since it wasn't any of her business.

Xiao Fang picked one of them up then gave them a whiff. They smelled really nice, but the smell wasn't strong at all. He thought Lai Yun had earlier put too little when he smelled it in class, but it seemed that the perfumes were just too weak.

”How many merit points do you make a month selling these?” Xiao Fang asked.

Yuan Fei wasn't good with money, and people always intimidated her into lowering her price, so she didn't make very much. For a time, she was just glad that people liked her product, but she didn't like the way they treated her like trash. She always wanted to become popular and make more money with her craft, but being a No-Class disciple for 2 years humbled her into having much simpler goals.

”Not much. Maybe a few hundred,” she smiled awkwardly.

She knew she was making even less than that, but she was too embarrassed to say it. Of course, Xiao Fang knew she was lying, but he didn't call her out on it.

There were a few small bottles on his desk, so he asked about each of them. Seeing that someone was interested about her perfumes, she started to tell him all kind of things she learned about them, but she was careful not to disclose any information about the exact herbs she used.

Xiao Fang could tell that making perfumes was a big part of her life, but not only did she love doing it, she seemed extremely knowledgeable on the topic as well.

Satisfied by what she told him, Xiao Fang took out a scroll with some writing on it then handed it to Yuan Fei. She accepted the scroll then began to read through it. Suddenly, her eyes began to widen as she read it.

”Is... is this really for me?”

What she held in her hand was a contract, and what Xiao Fang was offering her were several tools, equipment, resources, merit points, and a clean working space in the Nameless guild's lab. On top of that, he was also inviting her to join his guild, which meant she would have access to even more plants and herbs only disciples in a guild could get.

What he was offering her were things she would've never been able to get on her own. It was almost like a dream come true.

”I-I don't understand. What would you have to gain by inviting me into your guild?” Yuan Fei said as she tried to calm down.

”95% of the profits would go to the guild, but since you'll be a guild member, I'll be giving you an allowance like everybody else.”

”How much?” She asked with trembling hands.

”1,000 merit points... a week.”
