Little Cold Hands was direct. He didnt try to beat around the bush and asked for the truth. This truth was what Ye Xiu had wanted to hide and was why Ye Xiu had Chen Guo deal with this matter instead of doing it himself. However, they were exposed from the beginning. Chen Guo instantly felt embarrassed. She couldnt bring herself to answer him at the moment, so she turned her head and looked at Ye Xiu.

What happened? Ye Xiu asked.

Weve been seen through. Chen Guo said.

Oh? Ye Xiu didnt seem to be too surprised. So what did he say?

Its my turn to talk now. Chen Guo said.

Then say what you need to say! Ye Xiu said.

Then Chen Guo also showed the brisk side of her and happily admitted: Yes.

Oh, then this team has some weight to it. Little Cold Hands said.

Chen Guo was confused for a moment. When she first mentioned that Holy Heal, this fellow appeared to be quite humble, but this sentence sort of implied that he thought of himself very highly. How could someone say something like Ye Qius team only had some weight to it.

Was that Unrivaled Super Hottie, Ye Qiu? The more Little Cold Hands asked, the deeper he got.

Chen Guo turned around to look at Ye Xiu: Hes asking about Unrivaled Super Hottie!

Ye Xiu nodded his head, so Chen Guo answered with another: Yes.

What was his aim for sneaking into Tyrannical Ambition? Little Cold Hands continued to ask.

He was currently speaking in an arrogant tone. As for Chen Guo, she was the type who could be persuaded by reason, but not coerced. When Little Cold Hands was being humble and polite, she had a good impression on him, but now that he suddenly acted all haughty, she immediately felt unhappy. If she continued to say that Ye Xiu did that just to find a Cleric and picked him, wouldnt it please him to death? As a result, Chen Guo decided to just blab: No particular reason. He just wanted to play on a side account to sharpen his skills.

To sharpen his skills? With Ye Qius level, what skills could he need to sharpen by joining an average team in a guild? Little Cold Hands was able to see through the lie with ease. Chen Guo felt gloomy and found Ye Xiu continuously shaking his head beside her, expressing his disdain towards her lie.

In short, we think your skills are quite good. What do you think? Are you interested in joining us? Chen Guo didnt care, because truthfully, she favored the frank and blunt method. If he was interested in joining, then he could join. If not, he didnt have to. It would be over and done with. If a clear and straightforward answer was given, why would there be a need to chit-chat anymore? In any case, everything had been exposed.

If he really is Ye Qiu, then I do have some interest. Little Cold Hands spoke, But youre not just borrowing his name to bluff me, are you?

Chen Guo could see that he was starting to doubt her and wanted to faint. However, in the end, this was still official business, so she didnt directly show her fearlessness and patiently continued: Its true. Didnt you guess correctly from the start?

Then where is he? Why didnt he come to find me himself? Little Cold Hands asked.

Its because he was afraid that youre a Tyranny fan, so you might not like him because of his background as the God from Excellent Era. Chen Guo spoke the truth.

Oh, thats true, but it wasnt very wise to send you because a lot of people know about your relationship with Ye Qiu! Little Cold Hands said.

Yes yes yes. We were too careless, but now that you already know about it, how about you give us a definite answer about whether or not youre interested in joining! Chen Guo said.

How could my decision be so easy? Little Cold Hands was very shocked. If I joined Ye Qiu, then I wouldnt just be playing around for fun anymore, no? The goal would be the Pro Alliance, wouldnt it? With the championships as the goal, it means Id have to become a pro player, right? This is an important decision that could affect the rest of my life. Do you think Id just be able to casually throw out an answer in a few seconds?

The long chain of rhetorical questions made Chen Guo speechless. After a long while, she powerlessly said: Then you can think about it. You can give me an answer anytime youd like.

Youre just going to leave me like this? Little Cold Hands continued to be surprised.

Then what do you want? Chen Guo asked.

You should at least introduce your future plans and your current situation, right? For example, the other team members apart from Ye Qiu. For example, how much financial backing does your team have? Whats the direction and aim of the teams development? What would be my compensation and salary be? How many years would I have to sign for in the contract? Are there three insurances and one fund or five insurances and one fund? Does your team provide food and housing accommodations? Little Cold Hands continued with another chain of questions.

This time, Chen Guo didnt feel upset. She also realized that what she was discussing with Little Cold Hands was indeed a very serious and important issue. On the other hand, she was recruiting him like how she would for a dungeon party in the game.

Okay! Chen Guo hurriedly hastily corrected her attitude, As for our team, Ye Qiu will be the captain. Were currently in the preparatory phase. We will be signing up for the Challenger League next season and fighting for qualifications into the Pro League. As for our members, were still in the middle of recruiting them. As for the investment, Im currently the investor. As for salary, if you intend to join the team, then we can sit down and discuss it, are you satisfied?

Oh? Youre the investor? Namely...the boss? Little Cold Hands asked.

Pretty much! Chen Guo answered with a bit of guilt because she realized more and more that it wouldnt be an easy thing to support a team in the current Glory league. She wasnt confident that she could really support the team all by herself.

Pretty much? What does that even mean? Little Cold Hands grasped this point.

Currently, Im the only investor. Chen Guo said.

You mean that in the future, someone else could become a shareholder, or do you mean that you arent completely sure about the issue, so you gave a vague answer? Little Cold Hands said.

Okay! Im not sure. Were currently in the preparatory stage of creating the team, so there are a lot of questions that were still figuring out. Chen Guo said.

Also, you mentioned that your team would be getting the qualifications into the Pro League through the Challenger League? From the looks of it, your resources are very limited and you dont have confidence in any of the other paths to the Pro League, but for the Challenger League, even if we have a God like Ye Qiu, we cant be sure that we would definitely reach the end. After all, in the Challenger League, there will be two eliminated pro teams joining too, right? Under these circumstances, what would the contract for our wages say? Would our contract have a clause saying its half-professional? That if we happen to win our way into the Pro League through the Challenger League, the contract would automatically change into a full professional contract? If the team fails, the contract would automatically be terminated and everyone can just return home and do whatever?

Little Cold Hands threw out a mountain of questions once again. These were all things that Chen Guo had never thought about before. She was unable to ward off the blows at the moment. After hesitating for a long while, she gave another vague answer: Were still thinking about these issues. We can discuss the specifics once everyone has gathered together.

Oh look, another uncertainty! You really are unsure toward all the issues. Dont tell me that youre planning to say if I have any intentions on joining, then I should give you around three to five hundred yen as a deposit? If thats the case, then I dont have any other doubts toward your identity. Little Cold Hands said.

Of course not Chen Guo was gloomy, but she couldnt bring herself to blame him because their team still lacked a decent and proper plan. Chen Guo was unsure about what Ye Xiu was planning, so she really couldnt say anything. She was afraid that Little Cold Hands would ask more questions right now, so she firmly raised the white flag: Actually, Ye Qiu is the one mainly responsible with creating the team. How about I have him find you to talk about all of this!

Dont tell me, you dont have any thoughts of your own? Youre that careless of an investor? Are you throwing everything to Ye Qiu to do? Could it be that hes your relative? Little Cold Hands still continued to ask.

Ask him, ask him Chen Guo could only say these words. She ruthlessly pulled Ye Xiu over from beside her. You talk to him!

Talk about what? Ye Xiu asked.

The teams plans, the members of the team, our financial backing, if he needs to sign a contract, sign what sort of contract, if he gets three insurances and one fund, does it cover food and housing, and also, if Im your relative. Chen Guo summarized everything emotionlessly. She was about to go crazy.

Ha ha ha, this fellow has done a lot of thinking! Ye Xiu laughed, while taking Chen Guos headphones.

Just hang it over there! I want to listen too. Chen Guo said.

Why dont you just put it on speaker? It wouldnt be as exhausting for you. Ye Xiu said.

And I was afraid of it being too noisy! Chen Guo said.

Ye Xiu held the mic near his mouth and said: Hello, hello?

Ye Qiu? The other side asked.

Its me, its me. Ive heard that you have a lot of questions! Ye Xiu said.

Yup, my first question is to confirm that youre the one who picked me and not that foolish lady who spoke earlier? Little Cold Hands said.

Ye Xiu gazed innocently at Chen Guo, who sat beside him. To his surprise, Chen Guo didnt seem to have the energy to be angry because Chen Guo felt pretty stupid about her responses to Little Cold Hands.

Yes, I was the one who found you. Moreover, that foolish lady is not my relative. Shell be our boss. Ye Xiu said.

Oh? Shes so stupid. Her money must be easy to swindle, right? Is that why you chose her as your investor? Little Cold Hands said.

I forgot to tell you. She can hear our conversation right now. Ye Xiu had to say.

...... Little Cold Hands, who had kept on asking questions, finally became silent. He then started said: Hello boss, I hope that after you heard the reminders I gave you, you should be more aware of the risks that the Challenger League holds and to be cautious in investing.

Thank you. Chen Guos face was covered in tears.

Then let's get to business, please tell me about the current state of this team! Little Cold Hands said.

The situation is just as boss said. Its currently filled with uncertainties. If we cant assemble enough members before the Challenger League starts, then everything will just be for nothing. Ye Xiu said.

Is this your main concern right now? Little Cold Hands said.

Indeed.

Even if we managed to form a team, how can you be so certain about the Challenger League? Little Cold Hands asked.

As long as its a competition, then no one would dare say that they are one hundred percent certain. However, a team like ours, which is made from scratch, needs to be tested through something like the Challenger League. If we cant even perform well enough in the Challenger League, then even if our team enters the Pro League, then we would just be returning to the game very soon. To enter the Pro League through the Challenger League is so that our investors dont have to take such dangerous risks. This is our responsibility to the investors. Ye Xiu said.

What you mean is that Challenger Leagues aim is actually to examine this teams quality and worth? Little Cold Hands asked.

Correct, the one who would actually be taking on the risk of elimination would be me. As long as you guys perform well, then the Challenger League will help you achieve enough to ensure your future. Ye Xiu said.
