BXBX NOVEL Chapter 109: Called in (4)
I didn\'t answer this question and instead asked, "Just how much do you know about him?"
Bing Lan knitted her brows even more, but she opened up her computer in the end and opened up a few files to look at before turning the monitor around to show me.
I was surprised that she would show me this file that easily, but that didn\'t mean that I was against looking at it.
As I read it, I couldn\'t help being surprised by just how thorough the records were.
There was plenty of personal information about Hayato\'s handler, as well as small details about him that most people wouldn\'t know.
Though it didn\'t seem like they were watching him 24/7, that was normal since that would violate some human rights.
After I finished reading this, I shook my head and said, "No, this isn\'t what I mean."
Bing Lan still had knitted brows for a bit, but then she relaxed them as she said, "Stop beating around the bush and just tell me what you\'re thinking."
I revealed a bitter smile, but I did do what she said.
"You\'re saying that he\'s been sneaking around?" Bing Lan knitted her brows again after hearing this. But then she relaxed her brows as she said, "Aren\'t you just thinking too much?"
I shook my head before saying, "I heard it from Hayato when he was drunk."
Bing Lan narrowed her eyes to look at me as she said in a sharp voice, "You got a kid drunk?"
I jolted when I heard this before quickly correcting myself, "Drunk on the atmosphere in the bar, he didn\'t drink a single drop. I promise."
Bing Lan just kept glaring at me for a bit, but her eyes slowly relaxed once more before she gave a nod to show that she believed me.
She turned back to look at the monitor before tapping a few keys and pulling something else up. But this time, she didn\'t turn the monitor around to show me as she looked at it with a frown on her face.
Finally, she said, "Alright, I\'ll look into it."
I was surprised that she would suddenly agree like this, but I didn\'t think too much about it.
After all, it wasn\'t as if I wanted to get involved in this matter in the first place.
This was something for the guild to deal with, not me.
I just wanted to use this to distract their attention from me, but I never thought that it would work so well.
Once we had finished this, Bing Lan called the others back in.
"So we were just used as a negotiation tool?" The red haired man asked.
Bing Lan looked at him with a smile without saying anything.
The red haired man gave a sigh before saying while shaking his head, "Oh well, at least it ended well."
The purple haired woman didn\'t say anything, but the bitter smile on her face told more than enough.
The only one who seemed like she wasn\'t convinced was the sharp dressed woman.
She looked like she clearly opposed this, but she didn\'t say anything out loud.
After everyone was caught up, Bing Lan introduced me to everyone.
The red haired man was the guild\'s dungeon raid team one leader, Rupert Campbell, an A Ranker.
The purple haired woman was the guild\'s dungeon raid team three leader, Misty Wells, an A Ranker.
And the sharp dressed woman was Bing Lan\'s personal secretary Hua Rong, who surprisingly was also an A Ranker.
Though they were only the leaders of the dungeon raid teams, this was a position that was just under the vice guild master, so they were considered high ranking members of the guild.
And of course, there was no need to doubt the authority that these three had in the guild.
Especially the secretary Hua Rong since she was Bing Lan\'s personal secretary.
Since the matter had been settled, both Rupert and Misty quickly warmed up to me.
It seemed that they had already heard about me, so they asked me to demonstrate my abilities to them. After experiencing it themselves, they both acted even more friendly, as if they could see my potential.
Rupert even tried to snipe me for dungeon raid team one, but Bing Lan quickly shut it down.
But during all of this, the only one that didn\'t get along with me was naturally Hua Rong.
Rupert secretly told me, "The reason why everyone in the guild is scared of her is because of the duties that she takes care of. She\'s the guild master\'s right hand, so…she takes care of some of the dirty business if you know what I mean."
I trembled when I heard this and both of us trembled even more when we felt Hua Rong\'s gaze fall onto us.
Luckily, Bing Lan came to our rescue by saying, "Hua Rong, bring the contract for business cooperation over. We\'ll get him to sign it and then we\'ll go from there."
Hua Rong deeply knitted her brows when she heard this and she hesitated on going.
Bing Lan saw this and gave a sigh before saying, "Just go and get it."
Since Bing Lan had even said this, Hua Rong had no choice but to go.
A few minutes later, she came back with a contract for me to sign.
I just gave it a quick scan before signing it. The only thing that I had to make sure was that the percentage was correct and that there weren\'t any hidden lines.
Of course, I trusted Bing Lan, but with the way that Hua Rong looked at me…it was hard to tell if she would play some tricks.
After making sure that she didn\'t, I signed it without any hesitation.
Once the contract was signed, there was nothing else left…well other than my punishment.
It was simple, I would have to undergo Su Chen\'s \'special\' training.
It seemed that Su Chen\'s \'special\' training was famous in the guild since even Rupert and Misty trembled when they heard this.
It made me even more scared that Hua Rong looked like she approved of this.
If someone like her even approved of it, then just how terrifying would this \'special\' training be?
I could only lament having to go through it, but I thought about dragging Blaze and Hayato in as well since they were also responsible for this mess. Even though in reality it was all something that I had planned.
They didn\'t have to go and make things much worse by acting in such an eye-catching manner.
But that was just a bit of silent bitterness and not any real complaining.
Since that matter was settled, I walked out of the office while being held by the shoulder by Rupert.
With the way that he kept talking to me, it seemed like he hadn\'t given up the idea of sniping me for his dungeon team. But when we were alone…he said to me, "So you own a club like that? How about we go and have a drink sometimes."
The smile on his face made it very clear what he was thinking, but I was more concerned about the chill coming from behind us.
He didn\'t seem to feel it, but I could feel it very strongly.
It was coming from Misty\'s cold gaze…
It seemed that there was a story between the two of them…
