"Then… What does Knight-errant Yi want me to do?" Ye Wanwan asked, perplexed.
"Ano… ano pala ang gustong ipagawa sa akin ni Knight-errant Yi?" Nagtatakang tinanong ni Ye Wan Wan.
"This is related to the Nie family. I once swore that I wouldn't participate in any matters of factions that aren't related to the ancient clans in the Independent State. Although you sell doors, you should have a lot more means and channels for information than me. I don't have many friends, so I'd like you to help me investigate for my disciple." Yi Shuihan looked at Ye Wanwan.
"May kinalaman ito sa Nie family. Nangako ako noon na hindi ako nangingialam sa kahit anong paksyon na walang kinalaman sa ancient clans ng Indpendent State. Kahit na nagbebenta ka ng mga pintuan, mas marami kang impormasyon at channels na alam kaysa sa akin. Wala akong masyadong kaibigan, kaya gusto ko sanang hingiin ang tulong mo na mag-imbesta para sa disipulo ko." Tiningnan ni Yi Shui Han si Ye Wan Wan.
Ye Wanwan was at a loss for words. Her situation was a bit awkward. She was the one who looked after Tangtang back in China, which led to Madam Nie and Tangtang's mother to have a warped perception of her…
Walang masabi si Ye Wan Wan. Nasa awkward na sitwasyon siya. Siya ang nag-alaga noon kay Tang Tang sa China kaya naging masama ang tingin sa kanya ni Madam Nie at ng nanay ni Tang Tang...
If she investigated Tangtang's mother at a time like this…
Kapag inimbestigahan niya ngayon ang nanay ni Tang Tang...
If Yi Shuihan was speaking the truth though and Tangtang's mother was truly a fake, she wouldn't have any resentment about doing this for Tangtang.
Kung sinasabi ni Yi Shui Han anh katotohanan at peke nga talaga ang nanay ni Tang Tang, hindi siya magsisisi na ginawa niya ito para kay Tang Tang.
However, if… Tangtang's mother wasn't a fake and was real, she'd probably cause Tangtang and his mother's relationship to deteriorate further by rashly investigating it…
Gayunpaman, kung… hindi peke ang nanay ni Tang Tang, mas lalong masisira ang relasyon ni Tang Tang at ng nanay niya kung iimbestigahan niya pa lalo ito...
"Knight-errant Yi, how reliable is his intelr?" Ye Wanwan asked with a frown.
"Knight-errant Yi, maaasahan ba ang kanyang impormasyon?" Nakasimangot si Ye Wan Wan nang tanungin niya ito.
"I don't know." Yi Shuihan shook his head. "Aside from the ancient clans, I'm unfamiliar with the rest of the factions in the Independent State, which is why I wanted you to help my disciple look into it."
"Hindi ko alam." Umiling si Yi Shui Han. "Maliban sa ancient clans, hindi ako pamilyar sa ibang mga paksyon ng Independent State, kaya gusto ko sanang hingiin ang tulong mo para sa disipulo ko."
Ye Wanwan contemplated it for a long while before finally nodding. "Then… I'll try my best…"
Napa-isip ng matagal si Ye Wan Wan bago siya tumango. "Susubukan ko…"
She was coincidentally going to see Tangtang in the Nie residence in a few days, so she could look into it a little without any major problems.
Kikitain niya naman si Tang Tang sa susunod na mga araw sa Nie residence, kaya maiimbestigahan niya naman siguro iyon nang walang problema.
"Thanks." Yi Shuihan nodded. "Also, please keep my master-disciple relationship with Nie Tangxiao a secret, Miss Ye."
"Salamat." Tumango si Yi Shui Han. "At tsaka, sikreto lang natin na disipulo ko si Tang Tang at master niya ako, Miss Ye."
"Sure…" Ye Wanwan agreed.
"Sige…" sumangayon si Ye Wan Wan.
It was almost evening when she left Yi Shuihan's residence.
Gabi na noong nakaalis siya sa bahay ni Yi Shui Han
Ye Wanwan sighed. She originally came to see Yi Shuihan today to ask him to help her handle Lord Asura, but in the end, Yi Shuihan didn't help her and she had to help him instead.
Nagbuntong hininga si Ye Wan Wan. Pupunta sana siya doon para hingiin ang tulong ni Yi Shui Han kay Lord Asura, ngunit sa huli, hindi siya tinulungan ni Yi Shui Han at siya pa ang tutulong dito.
This transaction was a pitiful loss…
Malas ang transaction na ito...
Soon, two cars parked by the roadside.
Pagkatapos ay nag-park sa gilid ng kalsada ang dalawang kotse.
Seven Star and Big Dipper were in one, and the Star Destroyer mercenary team was in the second one.
Nasa isang sasakyan si Seven Star at Big Dipper at ang Star Destroyer mercenary team ay nasa kabilang kotse.
Ye Wanwan strolled forward and entered the backseat of the car driven by Seven Star.
Naglakad si Ye Wan Wan at pumasok siya sa backseat ng kotse na minamaneho ni Seven Star.
Ye Wanwan had informed Big Dipper to pick her up to attend Lord Asura's conference when it was time.
Sinabihan na ni Ye Wan Wan si Big Dipper na sunduin siya nito papunta sa conference ni Lord Asura.
"Seven Star, drive," Ye Wanwan ordered.
"Tara na, Seven Star," utos ni Ye Wan Wan.
The car started moving immediately.
Umandar ng mabilis ang kotse.
"Sis Feng… How was it? Is Piece of Sh*t willing to help…" Big Dipper asked Ye Wanwan.
"Sis Feng… kamusta? Tutulong ba si G*go…?" Tinanong ni Big Dipper si Ye Wan Wan.
It would've been fine if Big Dipper stayed silent, but Ye Wanwan was enraged the second he said that.
Okay lang sana kung nanatiling tahimik si Big Dipper, ngunit biglang nagalit si Ye Wan Wan nang marinig niya iyon.
Ye Wanwan's face was icily stern as she surveyed Big Dipper. A while later, she asked, "Did you have fun installing the door?"
Seryoso ang itsura ni Ye Wan Wan habang sinusuri niya si Big Dipper. Sa isang saglit, bigla siyang nagtanong, "Naging masaya ka ba noong kinakabit mo yung pintuan?"
Big Dipper grew embarrassed, as though he already knew what Ye Wanwan wanted to say.
Mas lalong nahiya si Big Dipper na parang alam na niya kung ano ang gustong sabihin ni Ye Wan Wan.
"You demanded $100,000 to install a door? Are you a bandit?" Ye Wanwan stared at Big Dipper.
"Nanghingi ka ng $100,000 sa pagkabit mo ng pintuan? Bulag ka ba?" Tinitigan ni Ye Wan Wan si Big Dipper.
Big Dipper shook his head vehemently. "Yes… Sis Feng, I'm a bandit. Isn't everyone in the Fearless Alliance a bandit…?"
Paulit-ulit na umiling si Big Dipper. "Opo… Sis Feng, gahaman ako. Hindi ba't lahat naman ng nasa Fearless Alliance ay gahaman…?"
"…" Ye Wanwan was rendered speechless.
"..." Walang masabi si Ye Wan Wan.
"Sis Feng, look, since we can't beat Piece of Sh*t, we can win through intelligence. Piece of Sh*t is a very reasonable person. I deceived him by saying the door was custom-made and limited edition, so it was worth $200,000, but I only asked for $100,000 from him. He was fairly grateful to me! So on a certain level, I've already used my intelligence to beat Piece of Sh*t."
"Sis Feng, ganito, dahil hindi natin matatalo si G*go, pwede tayong manalo gamit ang utak. Madaling makausap si G*go. Nilinlan ko siya noong sinabi ko na custom-made at limited edition ang pintuan at ang halaga nito ay $200,000, pero ang hiningi ko lang sa kanya ay $100,000. Nagpasalamat pa nga siya sa akin eh! Kaya kung iisipin mo, ginamit ko ang utak ko para talunin si G*go."
Ye Wanwan: "…"
No, you're just shameless.
Hindi, makapal lang talaga ang mukga mo.
