After Lin Yu turned A'yu down, A'yu was somewhat disappointed, but she truly did not pressure Lin Yu.
After all, the reason Lin Yu gave was perfectly valid—now that he knew he would have a relatively free schedule for the time being, Lin Yu naturally had ample grounds to persuade A'yu.

"I was in Guangdong Province because I'd taken a private job. I only rushed over right away after receiving your message, Sister Yu. Since the 'Marauders' mission isn't urgent either, I'd better finish my own private job first."
With Lin Yu putting it that way, A'yu naturally couldn't force him to stay and play with her. She could only sigh regretfully.
"All right, all right. Since you have a job to do, there's nothing I can do about it... Do you need my help?"

More than half of the Marauders' members also worked part-time as Bounty Hunters, often accepting all kinds of commissions.
