Lin Fan slowly drove the carriage through the gates of the city after being checked by the guards.
The three girls had been sitting in the back since it was hard for them to move after what Lin Fan had done to them last night.
Of course, they had come out of the carriage temporarily to let the guards check the carriage itself, but after they left, all of the guards looked at Lin Fan with looks of admiration since they could tell why the girls were tired.
These guards were all familiar with Lin Fan after the many times that he had gone in and out of the city with tired girls, so they were already used to this, but still they were filled with admiration towards the fact that Lin Fan had three beauties like this all to himself…
After arriving in the city, Lin Fan decided to ignore everything for the day and drove the girls home before carrying each of them to their beds to let them rest up for the rest of the day.
Since he was the one who caused this, he was also the one that would take care of them until they were healed up.
When the next morning came, Lin Fan’s rested group made their way to the Mercenary Guild to see Tian Tian.
A month had already passed since the incident with Lala’s father, so according to the timeline that Tian Tian had given them, it should be around this time that the people sent by the eldest young master Qian would be arriving in this city.
If they were here, it would be good for Lin Fan to get any information that he could get on these people since it would help him plan his future moves.
After all, if they were too strong…Sometimes running away wasn’t cowardly, but rather the right move.
But after arriving at the Mercenary Guild, he was surprised to find that it was much more lively than it was before. There were many different people that were moving around in the hall, people that he recognized and plenty of people that he didn’t recognize.
However, that wasn’t an important thing for him.
Lin Fan ignored the crowd that was in the hall of the Mercenary Guild and made his way to the counter where he saw Tian Tian busying herself with something.
He had planned on waiting until she was free, but when she saw him, she immediately dropped what she was doing and came over to say, “You’re back!”
Lin Fan was surprised to see how enthusiastic her greeting was, but he just gave a nod and said, “Un, we’re back.”
Tian Tian didn’t hesitate for a second as she grabbed his hand and pulled him to the second floor, bringing him and Xiao Yue and Lala who had come with him into a private room. Then without explaining a thing, she ran out of the room, leaving him there with the two girls in a daze, confused about what had just happened.
Luckily, it didn’t take her long to come back, but when she did come back, she wasn’t alone.
There was another woman who looked very similar to Tian Tian who came into the room with her, but the difference between the two was that this new woman didn’t have the same professional look as Tian Tian. Rather, the way her clothes were a bit messy and the fact that she had a few cowlicks gave her more of a slacker look.
But there was no doubt that these two girls were very similar, it was almost as if they were sisters.
The woman sat down in front of Lin Fan’s group along with Tian Tian and then introduced herself with a smile, “I’m Tian Xue, the president of this Mercenary Guild branch and the big sister of this ditzy girl here.” She said this as she pointed at Tian Tian.
Tian Tian pouted her lips at first, but then she quickly remembered where she was and her serious look from before came back.
However, Tian Tian didn’t forget to kick Tian Xue from under the table.
Then Tian Tian gave a cough and then said with a sigh, “As you can see, it’s quite busy outside.”
Lin Fan was surprised by the topic that Tian Tian chose to start with, but he still said, “It is indeed quite busy outside. Did something happen?”
Tian Tian and Tian Xue looked at each other before they both gave another sigh and fell to silence.
After a long period of silence, Tian Tian finally said, “It all started when someone suddenly put up a large bounty on a mission to find someone, but it’s also a very low ranking mission, so there are many people that have gathered in our branch during this time. However, this is a very bad time for this since we have something important happening as well…”
Her voice drifted off when she said this, almost as if she was entering deep though again.
But when Lin Fan heard this, he couldn’t help knitting his brows slightly, but he also quickly released them. It was just a good thing that both Tian Tian and Tian Xue were occupied with their own thoughts that they didn’t notice this small change with Lin Fan.
If someone were to post a mission about looking for someone, then it was most likely…
After another long period of silence, Tian Tian went off on another tangent, “Young master Lin, we might have a solution for your problem with the Qian Family’s first young master.”
Lin Fan’s group were all surprised when they heard this, but then Lin Fan knitted his brows.
He knew that there was no such thing as a free meal in this world. For the Mercenary Guild to offer a solution for their problem, it was clear that they had something that they wanted Lin Fan to do in return for them.
But this wasn’t a bad thing either.
If it wasn’t something that dangerous, then it was possible for him to accept this deal since it was certainly better than fighting to the death with the people the Qian Family first young master sent.
After thinking this, Lin Fan said, “Alright, what is it?”
Tian Tian revealed an awkward look when she heard this and she said, “Well, the time isn’t right just yet. I can’t tell you what it is yet, but I can tell you in about a week.” Then after a pause, she awkwardly said, “So we were hoping that you could stay in this city for about a week…”
She awkwardly trailed off since she knew that this was quite a bit to ask for from a mercenary. After all, the mercenary job took them all over the place, especially when one was a higher rank mercenary.
After all, strong beasts couldn’t just be found all over and one had to travel around to go to their nests.
With Lin Fan’s track record, she was certain that he would already qualify for an A Rank Mercenary, especially since he came back to the city and wasn’t afraid of the people sent by the Qian Family.
After all, when she had told him about their solution, his response had been quite lukewarm. It was almost as if he had already thought of a solution for this problem.
Since he was confident in dealing with High Qi Gathering Realm Cultivators, that would mean that he was more than qualified to become an A Rank Mercenary.
Lin Fan knitted his brows to think for a bit before he asked, “Then can I still take missions for the area around the city?”
Tian Tian gave a nod and said, “Yes, that’s not a problem at all. Please just stay within a day’s travel of the city, so we can contact you easily.”
Lin Fan nodded and said, “Alright, that’s not a problem at all.”
Tian Tian gave a sigh of relief before saying, “I know that this is an unreasonable request on our part, but I really have to thank you for agreeing to this. If there’s anything that we can do for you in return, please just tell us.”
She looked at Lin Fan’s face and couldn’t help feeling that it was different.
When…did he become even more handsome?
Without even thinking about it, she couldn’t help adding with a wink, “Of course, if there’s anything that you’d want from me, that’d be fine too.”
[Tian Tian has been charmed by your looks. Affection has increased by 10.]
Lin Fan was surprised to see this notification, but he also couldn’t help revealing a faint smile.
To be honest, he had been hoping that he would be able to get Tian Tian one day because he had fallen for her the moment he saw her. After all, this kind of mature blonde lady was the dream that many men in his past life had!
But of course, he didn’t let his fantasies run for that long since he knew that this wasn’t the place for that.
So after a cough, Lin Fan said, “No, there’s nothing that I need right now.”
But then after seeing Tian Tian’s slightly disappointed look, he couldn’t help adding, “Perhaps we could have a meal sometime.”
Tian Tian revealed a faint smile after this and said, “Sure, if there’s time, we can have a meal together.”
She also felt a bit of guilt because of Lala’s feelings, but for some reason, Lala and Xiao Yue were both looking at her with expectant gazes.
What she didn’t know was that both of them wanted her to join Lin Fan’s harem…
He was just too much at nights…
