Ye Wanwan was forced to follow him.

“Li Xin…” Ye Wanwan called out..

Li Xin turned around and looked at her. “What?”

“Come… Come sit next to me…” Ye Wanwan smiled at him.

To her surprise, this smile caused Li Xin to s.h.i.+ver and vehemently shake his head.

“Hurry, come here… No one is sitting here,” Ye Wanwan pressed.

“No, no, no… It's fine, Junior Sister, I'm fine where I am…” Li Xin replied.

“I want to ask you something.” Ye Wanwan furrowed her brows.

“Junior Sister, what could you possibly need to ask me… You can't possibly like me, right…? Junior Sister, I have someone I like, and my child can call me 'Dad' already…” Li Xin hurriedly said.

Ye Wanwan: “…”

Before Ye Wanwan could say anything more, an instructor entered the cla.s.sroom.

“Today is the second day for many of our new students. I need to tell everyone some rules for the low-ranking mercenaries at Scarlet Flames Academy.” The instructor swept his eyes over the cla.s.sroom. “D-rank mercenaries are issued three missions every month, but the rank of the mission doesn't have any restrictions. If you don't finish three missions, you will be expelled by Scarlet Flames Academy.”

Compulsive missions…

Ye Wanwan looked pensive.

Compulsive missions were directly issued to a person by the Academy, and the person had to finish them and couldn't decline them. If they didn't finish them within the required time, it would be considered a failure.

However, if they failed twice in a row or they purposefully didn't try to finish them, they'd be expelled from Scarlet Flames Academy.

“Your mission will be issued sometime soon, so make the necessary preparations,” the instructor continued expressionlessly.

About half an hour later, the Scarlet Flames instructor turned and left.

Ye Wanwan stood up and marched toward Li Xin, grabbing his shoulder from behind. “Why are you running?”

“Why are you chasing me…?” Li Xin retorted.

“If you didn't run, why would I chase you?” Ye Wanwan frowned deeply.

“If you didn't chase me, why would I run?” Li Xin argued righteously.

“…” Fine, you win…

“I need you for respectable business.” Ye Wanwan dragged Li Xin back to her seat.

“Junior Sister… Seriously, don't look for me for respectable business, I'm not anyone respectable. You should find respectable people to do respectable business…” Li Xin frantically shook his head.

“Stop blabbing… I have a mission to issue.”

“Mission?” Li Xin was startled, confused by her words.

“That's right.” Ye Wanwan nodded with a grin. “Didn't you say your brother graduated from Scarlet Flames Academy?”

“Yeah, that's right.” Li Xin nodded.

“Then help me call your brother here. I have a decently priced mission for your brother to do,” Ye Wanwan said.

“What mission? What price?” Li Xin was instantly interested.

“Don't ask too many questions. But you will also get a reward for calling him here. I'll give you this sum.” Ye Wanwan extended five fingers out.

“50,000?!” Li Xin exclaimed.

However, Ye Wanwan shook her head.

“5000?” Li Xin was puzzled.

Ye Wanwan shook her head again. “500.”

“No can do. I've never seen someone as stingy as you. Go find someone else.” Li Xin lost interest immediately and turned to leave.

“…” I suddenly miss Nameless Nie…
