<strong>Capítulo 1397: Chapter 1398: Xiang Yu’s Jealousy</strong>


    “Do you believe what he says too?” Ivan sneered.


    Cai Zhong is famously shrewd, and now he feels guilty? That’s just a joke.


    But indeed, this mission seems a bit too simple.


    “This afternoon, you guys go to the airport to pick him up and ensure that all his activities are safe over the next three days,” said Cheng Wn.


    “Got it, don’t worry,” Ivan said crisply and then took the files and left.


    Protecting someone is different from assassinating; he must consider various factors.


    The files show that Xu Wanguan is just a regr businessman. Even though he has a lot of money, it shouldn’t be enough for someone to want him dead.


    Although the mission seems simple, Ivan must be cautious. If he messes this up, his reputation in the Orchid Mercenary Corps could be damaged.


    At noon, Li Bingbing came to find Xiang Yu and asked puzzled, “Why did Xiaoxuan leave after training for a bit?”


    “Don’t worry about him,” Xiang Yu replied calmly.


    After training for a while, Xiaoxuan was sent out by Xiang Yu to protect Su Yongzhen.


    Su Yongzhen’s issue is Xiang Yu’s top priority; he must figure out who is threatening him.


    Li Bingbing didn’t continue asking about Xiaoxuan and instead said, “Ivan and his team have taken a new task.”


    Xiang Yu looked at Li Bingbing in confusion and asked, “What task?”


    “I heard it’s a protection mission. Howe Sister Lan hasn’t approached you?” Li Bingbing said in confusion.


    Li Bingbing thought they could be assigned tasks but seeing Xiang Yu’s puzzled look, she realized they weren’t included this time.


    Xiang Yu shook his head and didn’t say anything else; he stood up and headed towards Cheng Wn’s vi.


    They had just entered the mercenary ranks, and Cheng Wn still had many unclear matters. To prevent past issues, he wanted to ask about this task.


    “I’ll go with you,” Li Bingbing quickly followed Xiang Yu.


    For some reason, being by Xiang Yu’s side, Li Bingbing felt very safe.


    Xiang Yu didn’t stop her, and the two went into Cheng Wn’s room.


    Seeing them together, Cheng Wn felt a bit ufortable but didn’t show it.


    “Sister Lan, is there a task for us?” Li Bingbing asked first.


    “This time, there’s no task for you,” Cheng Wn said with a smile.


    “Why isn’t it us?” Li Bingbing said with a bit of displeasure.


    “Your team justpleted a big task. Rest for a bit; let Ivan’s team handle this one,” Cheng Wn said sincerely.


    She would no longer underestimate Xiang Yu’s team and would not interfere with their training anymore.


    Actually, she highly valued Xiang Yu, as he never asked her for funds and never made any demands.


    Compared to Ivan, he was much better.


    Cheng Wn did not know Xiang Yu’s current status. If she knew he was the chairman of tworgepanies, she would wonder what she thought.


    “What kind of mission is it?” Xiang Yu looked at Cheng Wn in confusion.


    “Just a small protection task,” Cheng Wn said simply.


    She thought Xiang Yu came for a task, so she briefly described it to deter his interest.


    “How much is themission?” Xiang Yu asked directly.


    Although Cheng Wn respected Xiang Yu, she wouldn’t allow him to ask indiscriminately, so she said, “As I said, don’t ask for things you shouldn’t know.”


    Li Bingbing saw Cheng Wn was a bit annoyed, so said to Xiang Yu, “Since it’s a small task, let’s go back.”


    Xiang Yu stood still, looking at Cheng Wn, and said, “I came mainly to remind you, protecting someone is different from killing. Protection tasks are more challenging; a slight oversight could lead to failure.”


    Cheng Wn was moved but nodded and said, “I know, don’t worry about it.”


    From the task process and the files, this mission shouldn’t be that simple.


    She investigated Xu Wanguan; he’s just a pure businessman, without any other records before.


    Xiang Yu saw Cheng Wn wouldn’t say more, so he nodded slightly without asking further. Then he left with Li Bingbing.


    “Weren’t you trying to get a task?” Li Bingbing curiously asked on the way back.


    She thought Xiang Yu went to get a mission.


    Xiang Yu nodded and said, “You know Cheng Wn well; you should remind her. If this mission is released by the Rookie Mercenary Corp, she better cancel it; otherwise, it will be troublesome.”


    Li Bingbing looked at Xiang Yu suspiciously and asked, “How do you know it will be troublesome?”


    “Just a guess,” Xiang Yu said simply.


    Although Orchid Mercenary Corps’ development had little to do with Xiang Yu, since he’s part of it, he hoped it would develop well.


    “You’re so unreliable,” Li Bingbing said with some anger.


    She thought Xiang Yu would list many theories, but he said it was a guess. How was she supposed to exin to Cheng Wn?


    Xiang Yu ignored her and walked forward.


    Li Bingbing stood there for a while, then turned around and went back.


    “Why did youe back?” Cheng Wn asked confused.


    Li Bingbing awkwardly smiled and said, “Sister Lan, is this task released by the Rookie Mercenary Corp?”


    Cheng Wn paused and then nodded, “Yes, it’s a task from them.”


    Cheng Wn didn’t hide anything; Li Bingbing was a trusted subordinate.


    “Xiang Yu just said, if it’s their task, we better cancel it, or it will be troublesome,” Li Bingbing said hesitantly.


    “Trouble, why?” Cheng Wn asked, frowning in confusion.


    Li Bingbing awkwardly smiled and said, “I don’t know why, he asked me to tell you.”<fn1d64> ??? ????? ???????s ??? ?????s??? ?? F?nd-Novel</fn1d64>


    Cheng Wn nodded and didn’t say much. She knew everyone had prejudice against the Rookie Mercenary Corp.


    But this mission was personally checked by her, and she scrutinized it thoroughly. She researched the whole n process and the person being protected, ensuring everything was fine before signing the contract.


    Now Xiang Yu suddenly asked Li Bingbing to say they’d cancel the contract; that’s simply impossible.


    “I will remind Ivan to be extra careful, rest assured,” Cheng Wn said straightforwardly.


    No matter what, Xu Wanguan’s arrival was set for the afternoon, and she had no other options.


    Li Bingbing also nodded; she thought Xiang Yu exaggerated. She stood and bid farewell to Cheng Wn.


    Cheng Wn shook her head somewhat helplessly. Although Xiang Yu was talented, he still couldn’t avoid vanity. Xiang Yu must have said that out of a ‘sour grapes’ mentality…
