The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3038 This matter is of utmost importance, I'll go with you!

"cooperate?"

Luxen's eyes swept back and forth between the two men, his face full of suspicion.

Although their accounts seemed plausible, Luxem's intuition told him that something was amiss.

With Bai Manmei's strength and methods, shouldn't she have completely taken control of this deserter's life and threatened him to work for her?
Where would any cooperation take place?
He didn't believe that White Berry would be so polite to a defeated soldier, and the human's voice was strong and steady, showing no fear whatsoever. These two things together were very strange.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
Bai Manmei spoke with conviction, but since the matter involved the Demon Emperor, he had to be careful.

His eyes darted around, and an idea came to him: "This matter is so important that it's too much of a strain to rely on you alone. What if things fail? Wouldn't that be letting down the higher-ups and making it difficult to explain to the Demon Emperor?"

White Blossom stared at Lucien and said coldly, "What do you want to do?"

Lu Sen chuckled: "We're with you. If this is done well, it'll be a great achievement. Now that I've come to this, you don't want to hog all the credit, do you?"

Bai Manmei frowned and said, "The more people there are, the greater the chance that things will be exposed. It's possible that what could have been my success has been ruined by you all."

Lu Sen laughed and said, "How can you infiltrate their ranks alone? We have more people, which makes us more likely to be noticed and allows us to better gather information about the Great Wilderness Saint. Don't you think so?"

After a pause, Lu Sen reminded him in a sarcastic tone, "If you want to take all the credit for this, don't blame me for accidentally leaking the information!"

Bai Manmei was getting a little anxious. Why was this guy still bothering her?
She herself wasn't afraid of getting entangled with Lu Sen, but she was afraid of bothering Lin Chen.

If Lin Chen gets annoyed, won't he be the one who suffers the consequences?
Who told her that her life was in Lin Chen's hands, and she had no say in her own fate?
Bai Manmei had never felt so humiliated, but she had no choice but to pull herself together and continue the act: "I'm just a newcomer in the Mercenary Association, and I've never been to the Great Wilderness forces before. They couldn't possibly know me. But you're a veteran of the Mercenary Association. What if you get recognized?"

Lu Sen smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter if we're recognized. Although we are high-ranking members of the Mercenary Association, we are still mercenaries. We are not from the Demon God Temple, and we have no grudge against the Great Wilderness Palace. Isn't the rule of mercenaries that you do things for whoever pays you?"

"Since you went to the Great Wilderness Palace's territory with this human and even planned to infiltrate them, you couldn't have been without a good excuse, could you? Since you're all mercenaries, what difference does it make whether one is an individual or a group?"

Bai Manmei inwardly groaned, pondering how to continue refusing the other party, when Lin Chen suddenly spoke up: "When you mercenaries accept missions, do you need to consider whether the employer is human or demon?" Lu Sen answered without hesitation: "Mercenaries only consider the mission's risk and reward. Who issued the mission is not important. Of course, in these special times of war between the two realms, we definitely need to be more sensitive..."

Lin Chen calmly replied, "I paid a high price to have you escort me to the Great Wilderness Palace's territory to find the human spies who entered the Demon Realm many years ago. You were attracted by the price, accepted my employment, and sent powerful experts to escort me there."

"Because I'm afraid of dying, I paid a higher price and hired a few more strong people. As a wealthy man, a tycoon who doesn't lack spirit stones, it's reasonable for me to hire more people, right?"

"As mercenaries, you didn't know my human identity, yet you accepted my employment to escort me into the Great Wilderness Palace to complete my search mission. Isn't that perfectly reasonable?"

"As for what to do after we arrive, that depends on the specific circumstances. But in any case, at least the journey itself was reasonable, wasn't it?"

Lucien frowned slightly. He glanced at Bai Manmei subconsciously and noticed that her cold gaze seemed to soften a little for a moment.

Lu Sen felt increasingly strange. It seemed that the human was in a dominant position, while White Cranberry was in a subordinate position.

No, I have to keep up!

This is a great opportunity to target White Blossom. If it is proven that what she said is false, or that she is colluding with this human, then she is finished!
If I turn around and leave now, then whether they go to the Great Wilderness Palace or investigate the Great Wilderness Saint will be unsubstantiated. It won't be easy for me to target her again then.

This is an opportunity you absolutely cannot miss!

Whether she's truly working for the Demon Emperor or not, I'll follow her and keep an eye on her the whole way!

Anyway, Bai Manmei is all alone, while her own people are numerous. No matter what tricks Bai Manmei tries to play, it won't work!

Although he still harbored doubts about the relationship between Lin Chen and Bai Manmei, Lu Sen outwardly appeared to believe it.

"Okay, it's settled then!"
