Old ginger is spicier than young ginger. This old ginger actually tricked her!
"Ah, Worriless, three million honor points isn't some small sum… You should know that, right? You see how I didn't ha.s.sle you all those years when you were gone from the Independent State? You must've returned here today to repay those honor points, right?"
The headmaster questioned her in good humor.
Ye Wanwan: "…"
Ye Wanwan didn't refute this point. Forget about three million mercenary honor points. Even if it was 17 or 18 hundred thousand, she couldn't manage to gather that amount, so she could imagine what an astronomical number three million honor points were.
However, what she couldn't understand was how she owed so many honor points back then.
"Worriless, why aren't you talking?" the headmaster asked.
"Headmaster, truthfully speaking, aside from being Worriless Nie, I have a second ident.i.ty," Ye Wanwan responded with a faint smile.
"A second ident.i.ty?" The headmaster wore an odd expression. "Tell me about it."
"Do you still remember Ye Wanwan, Headmaster?" Ye Wanwan asked.
"Ye Wanwan… That girl who still owes me several ten thousand honor points?" The headmaster nodded.
"…" He remembers quite well who owes him mercenary points.
"Sir Headmaster, truthfully speaking, I'm Ye Wanwan."
"You're that Ye Wanwan?"
The headmaster was astonished.
"That's right." Ye Wanwan nodded lightly. "The reason I previously asked you to hypnotize me was that I lost my original memories."
Since she lost her memories, how could she still remember she owed Scarlet Flames Academy three million honor points…?
"Hold on, hold on." The headmaster stared at Ye Wanwan and mulled over the matter for a moment before asking with a frown, "So what you're saying is that since you lost your memories, you don't need to repay the three million mercenary points you owe?"
"…" Although that idea did pop up…
"No no no no." Ye Wanwan frantically shook her head and looked at him. "Sir Headmaster, you've misunderstood. Don't you know me? Am I, Worriless Nie, someone like that?"
"Yes." The headmaster nodded without any hesitation.
Ye Wanwan's expression turned embarra.s.sed. Was the old her really this shameless and left such an indestructible image in the headmaster's mind…?
"Sir Headmaster, how could I be someone who would leave a debt unpaid? Look, how about you help me recover my memories first? As long as my memory's recovered, I'll repay every single mercenary point I owe to Scarlet Flames Academy," Ye Wanwan promised with a smile on her lips.
The headmaster suspiciously scrutinized Ye Wanwan. "I don't believe you."
"Sir Headmaster, look, I already owe three million mercenary points, so a couple thousand is nothing more… I guarantee that as soon as I regain my memories and remember the honor points I owe, I'll definitely pay everything back!" Ye Wanwan looked convicted.
The headmaster felt helpless. Why was it so difficult to ask someone to settle an account?
Was she accustomed to owing a debt? She had two ident.i.ties, but both ident.i.ties owed mercenary honor points to the Scarlet Flames Academy.
The headmaster was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with exasperation. He shouldn't have set this precedent from the start.
