As Fangsu and her grandpa went to register Chen Ming as an adopted son at the Bureau of Citizenship Office. The final paperwork for Chen Ming's registration was completed as they all returned back to Blossoming Fragrance to introduce him as one of the Chen Family. Fangsu started at the massive pile of paperwork presenting itself on her desk, preparing herself for the long workday, "Bao Ming, can find a school that will be good for Xiao Ming?" Organising the paperwork in order of importance from daily accounting to official statements that were in need of signature and claims.
As the loud chattering from customers as they entered the store was white noise for Fangsu as she continued to work on the piles of paperwork. A request for restocking was added to the pile as Fangsu needed to get the material from the suppliers. Employees were coming in and out of the room as Fangsu sent them for errands, "Little Boss, I did some research and found that Yang-Long Academy is a pretty good school," Handing over a booklet of the information of Yang-Ling Academy but also some other background information that was needed to inform. Fangsu gesture Xiao Ming to come over as she made sure that he would be happy with the school that was chosen. Fortunately, Xiao Ming was extremely excited to be allowed to attend school let alone receive an education. His dream had now become a reality.
Fangsu's grandpa took Xiao Ming to enrol as a student. Fangsu continued to maintain the workflow to finish the work. Da Fu entered the room with a box, "Little Boss, it's break time!" Setting out an array of a delicious meal in front of Fangsu to distract her long enough for Da Fu to clear the table of all the paperwork. Fangsu doesn't notice Da Fu moving all her paperwork to the side and began eating the delicious food while gulping down some tea.
As Fangsu was busily eating all the food, Bao Ming entered the room with Jingyi who was holding a massive box. "Fangsu! I got you a present!" Exclaiming as she placed the box on the table, unravelling the wrapping to reveal a Dusthell Steel Sword Whip. It was absolutely stunning, a silvery sheen which showed the sublime purity that reached at least ninety per cent which was extremely difficult to achieve. Dusthell Steel has been known to be of scarce supply, however, it has known to be the most durable and powerful metal for combative weapons. It would need no maintenance, can slowly repair itself and resistant to rusting, and it is also extremely light and flexible. To be able to make a blade of a sword whip which is known to be so thin with Dusthell Steel would be extremely difficult to create. The lightness, flexibility and durability of Dusthell Steel would be the best material for the sword whip as a heavy metal such as Solar Metal would be unsuitable and make wielding the sword whip be very difficult and energy taxing for the user.
Fangsu was shocked that Jingyi was presented a Dusthell Steel made weapon for her knowing that it's such a scarce and valuable resource, "Jingyi, you know that Dusthell Steel is scarce metal?" Fangsu wanted to reaffirm. Da Fu was equally shocked to be able to see a weapon made fully of Dusthell Steel as weapon makers usually make an alloy using a high ratio of strong metal such as Everchanging Adamantine with a low ratio of Dusthell Steel.
Jingyi nodded as she scratched her head, "Well you have treated me so well and given me so much," She was completely flustered with Fangsu's questioning reaction, "I wanted to reciprocate your hospitality," Jingyi timidly held the present as Fangsu's muted response overwhelmed her enthusiasm, disheartening her.
Fangsu released a breath, "It's just that this present is worth much more than my hospitality," The present was quite tempting for Fangsu, "It's too much," But it was too much as a present that it was difficult to easily accept.
Jingyi pushed the present to Fangsu, "No, you have been unconditionally kind to me," Staring straight at Fangsu with bright eyes, "That is enough for me," Her lips widen to a smile which caused Fangsu to helpless accept the present. Jingyi told Fangsu that it could be wrapped around the waist for easy wielding. It was also collapsible to become a normal sword, however, it was much too long for Fangsu to use effectively. Fangsu was surprised by the lightness of the weapon despite its long length. At the rate of accumulation of weapons Fangsu was collecting at, it would seem she would start having a personal armoury. Empress Dowager's dagger, Wu Song Beast Warding Bells and now Jingyi's Sword Whip. These weapons would be worth astronomical amounts of money.
