Chapter 1712: My brother-in-law said it

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After some consideration, Ye Wanwan shelved this option.

If she dispatched Fearless Alliance members to do missions for her, it would evoke suspicion, and she couldn’t transfer heaps of members from the Fearless Alliance’s headquarters.

She turned it over in her mind and realized that only Eldest Young Master Shen’s method, hiring a lot of top-tier and high-ranking mercenaries to complete missions for her, was feasible. None of the other methods were workable.

As for the hiring fee, it shouldn’t be a big problem if it wasn’t too high.

The Rose of Death had finally started profiting and stopped depending on the Fearless Alliance’s money.

“G.o.ddess… How about you get married to me? As long as you marry me, I can help you hire as many mercenaries as you want, and you won’t have to worry about money at all; I’ll take care of it.” Eldest Young Master Shen beamed at her, flas.h.i.+ng his teeth.

Ye Wanwan glanced at him. “Am I poor?”

Eldest Young Master Shen smiled abashedly. His G.o.ddess was the president of the Fearless Alliance, so she probably didn’t lack money.

“Also, how did you recognize me?” Ye Wanwan asked curiously. Logically speaking, Eldest Young Master Shen shouldn’t be able to recognize her.

“Hahaha, G.o.ddess… I could recognize you even if you turned into as.h.!.+ What’s weird about it?” Eldest Young Master Shen smiled.

When Ye Wanwan kept staring at him intently, he smiled guiltily and said, “Fine. I bought the news from my elder brother-in-law…”

“Elder brother-in-law?” Ye Wanwan was startled.

“Eh, it’s Nameless Nie… Who else could be my elder brother-in-law aside from Nameless Nie? G.o.ddess, aren’t you Nameless Nie’s foster sister…?” Eldest Young Master Shen looked at her.

Ye Wanwan’s lips twitched when she learned it was Nameless Nie who exposed her. It truly did fit her brother’s style… There was nothing he wouldn’t do for money.

“G.o.ddess, my elder brother-in-law is very satisfied with me… Otherwise, he wouldn’t divulge your information to me. He even told me you put on an ugly disguise… I’ve searched through the entire Scarlet Flames Academy and didn’t find anyone as ugly, so I recognized you at a glance.” Shen Tianchen snickered mischievously.

“…” Am I… the ugliest in all of Scarlet Flames Academy…?

After some more chatting with him, Ye Wanwan left the cafe and returned to the mission issuance area.

“Sis Wan, I heard you accepted that mission related to the defected mercenaries in China?”

Li Xin suddenly walked toward her from somewhere.

“What about it?” Ye Wanwan looked at him in confusion.

“Sis Wan, you can’t accept that mission… I heard that the elders determined the mission’s rank was wrong and haven’t confirmed the new rank yet, but it’s better for you to not accept it!” Li Xin hastily explained.

Ye Wanwan didn’t take it seriously though. She was about to return to China, so any convenient mission that came by was good. If Li Xin was telling the truth, she could just give up on the mission later; it wouldn’t be any loss to her.

“Li Xin, help me call top-tier mercenaries in the academy here,” Ye Wanwan requested.

“Me? Call those top-tier mercenaries here?” Li Xin pointed at himself, bewildered. “Aren’t you overestimating me too much, Sis Wan…?”

She thought about it. Oh right, Li Xin is also a D-rank student like me, so he probably can’t even see those top-tier mercenaries.

A lightbulb went off and Ye Wanwan had Li Xin summon more low-ranking students for her before releasing the news that some missions with high payment had shown up. Then she moved a chair and a stool and perched herself in the mission issuance area.
