It was my friend who pulled me into the group, and after joining, I hadn't said a word or interacted with anyone. Once I entered, I found myself alone with Xiao Xi.
Ruan Fu Xi seemed a bit strange. How did she approve my friend request back then?
Sheng Yan Zhou recalled that it was an accidental bump while reaching for a cream puff that led him to inadvertently click "accept." He quickly decided to hide that detail and simply said, "I think it might be fate."
Ruan Fu Xi nodded and suddenly asked, "So, are we still going to continue with our online dating tasks?"
Her eyes sparkled with a playful smile directed at Sheng Yan Zhou. Upon hearing her words, he felt his heart racing distinctly—thump, thump. Online dating, as a couple.
Ruan Fu Xi noticed that his ears were turning red again. Under her gaze, Sheng Yan Zhou replied earnestly, "Yes, do you want to, Xiao Xi?"
Just the thought of being able to call Xiao Xi his girlfriend was enough to send waves of excitement through him.
Ruan Fu Xi deliberately stretched her words, "Before I met you, I didn't want to do the tasks. But after meeting you..."
Sheng Yan Zhou anxiously awaited her next words.
"I think we can continue now," Ruan Fu Xi said with a smile in her eyes.
As Sheng Yan Zhou listened to her, a smile crept into his own eyes, and a thought surfaced in his mind: Could it be that Xiao Xi liked him just a little?
Just as he was about to say something, the vehicle slowly came to a stop; they had arrived at the Ruan residence.
Ruan Fuxi took the turtle from his hands, carrying the box as she got out of the car.
"Thank you for bringing me back. I've arrived," she said.
Sheng Yanzhou also got out of the car, feeling a bit reluctant.
"Get some rest early, Xiaoxi."
Ruan Fuxi nodded.
"You should head back and rest early too."
Then she turned and walked away.
It was only after her figure disappeared that Sheng Yanzhou got back into the car to return to the estate.
Once he was back, Sheng Yanzhou immediately hired a personal fitness trainer, determined to quickly achieve the kind of physique that Xiaoxi would like.
The next morning, Ruan Fuxi woke up naturally.
Speaking of which, she had been quite busy these past few days.
The protective charms had sold quite well, so she needed to prepare more. Additionally, she had to start planning for her online store, and most importantly, she needed to begin refining the Peiyuan Pills.
However, before that, Ruan Fuxi needed to let the Star Plate recognize her before she could gather materials for refining.
She took out the Star Plate and dripped three drops of her blood onto it; soon, the Star Plate began to change.
The bronze color gradually faded away, and the rust spots started to disappear. The entire Star Plate became exquisite, transforming into colors that combined the ocean and the vast starry sea—serene and profound, exuding an air of long-lasting mystery.
At this moment, Ruan Fuxi could feel her mind connecting with the Star Plate, but her cultivation was still too low to fully utilize its functions.
With a thought, the Star Plate shrank down to the size of a bowl, allowing her to hold it completely in her hands.
The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She then glanced at the computer beside her; with a silent thought, it appeared within the Star Plate.
"That's amazing! It even has storage capabilities!"
Moreover, as the Star Plate improved, its storage space would increase as well.
Old Master Sheng really gave her a wonderful gift.
At that moment, Ruan Fuxi's phone vibrated briefly.
