"Bradley, don't act recklessly. The guards outside could burst in at any moment. It would be so embarrassing if they saw us." When she said they should sleep, she really meant just sleeping. Who knew the man had imagined so much.
But Bradley wouldn't listen. He turned over, placed his hands on either side of her body, and looked down at her.
"If they see us, they'll naturally back off. That's great."
His hand gently stroked Freya's face.
Just as he leaned in, the door burst open.
Bradley was completely unfazed. He still passionately kissed Freya's lips and whispered softly, "Be good. They'll leave soon. Don't be afraid."
Sure enough, when the guards saw the scene in front of them, they had been aggressive when they came in, but now they immediately stopped in their tracks and didn't dare to come any closer.
Tonight was the wedding banquet of the eldest prince and the princess, and all the guests were staying overnight.
These were all important figures, and none of them could be offended.
If it hadn't been that no one answered the door when they knocked, they wouldn't have thought the room was empty and broken in.
Now that they had stumbled upon this situation, the guards were so scared that they quickly explained, "Sorry. There were thieves in the palace tonight. We were ordered to search for them. Since no one answered the door when we knocked, we took the liberty of breaking in. Please forgive us, Your Majesties."
Bradley's deep and cold voice came from inside the mosquito net, "Are the guards of the Yelü royal family all so ill-mannered?"
After saying that, he frowned and pulled open the mosquito net, standing imposingly in front of everyone.
When the guards saw his face, they were so scared that they quickly knelt down, "Your Majesty of Solterra."
"Get out!"
Bradley shouted sternly.
"Yes, yes." The guards didn't dare to stay and quickly scurried away in a group.
But as they left the door, one guard reminded, "Boss, the room of Your Majesty of Solterra seems to be in the east. Why did he come to the west?"
The leader of the guards glanced back into the room and coldly scolded, "There's also a woman in there. Men, even a monarch of a country, like some excitement."
After saying that, he raised his hand and ordered the others, "Withdraw!"
After the sound of footsteps faded away, Bradley returned to the bed. Freya said in a sarcastic tone, "It seems that they all think you, the Majesty of Solterra, are having an affair outside."
When the guards came in, Freya didn't show her face.
And since this wasn't the room arranged for them by the Yelü royal family, it was no wonder the guards thought so.
"They're right. Men like excitement. It's really interesting to change the place."
After saying that, he pinched Freya's chin and the corner of his mouth curved into a sly smile!
...
The palace wasn't peaceful tonight. The sound of the guards' footsteps continued throughout the night until dawn.
The next morning, when Yelü Qi learned that someone had broken into the information room, he was so angry that he slammed the table. "A bunch of useless people. With so many of you, you couldn't even catch two thieves. What's the use of you?"
The information room was an important place of the Yelü royal family. It had always been locked and no one was allowed to break in. Now that a thief had picked the lock and entered, who knew what important information had been stolen.
Yelü Qi was so angry that he put his hand on his chest and said, "Also, why wasn't I informed immediately last night when such a big thing happened?"
The guards knelt down and pleaded guilty, "You were quite drunk last night, so we reported it to the queen. She told us to search the entire palace and catch those two thieves."
"And where are the thieves?"
"They, they ran away."
The guards were almost in tears. They had searched the entire palace last night but hadn't found any trace of the thieves. It was so strange.
Yelü Qi's face looked extremely bad. He kicked the table and said, "Go and retrieve the surveillance footage from every corner of the palace last night. I want it right away."
"Yes."
The guards quickly went to do it.
Moments later, he retrieved all the surveillance videos and played them one by one in front of Yelü Qi.
"Your Majesty, we clearly saw them disappear in the west direction last night. Unless these two people grew wings, it's impossible for them to escape from the palace."
The more the guard thought about it, the more confused he became. With so many of them and having searched every room one by one, they still hadn't caught those two thieves. It just didn't make sense.
Yelü Qi stared at the surveillance video. Suddenly, he frowned and signaled the guard to pause it. Pointing at the room in the picture, he asked, "Did you search this room?"
The guard took a closer look and nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty of Solterra was staying in it, and there was also a woman with an unknown identity by his side."
Leonard?
Yelü Qi's eyebrows twitched several times, and he asked, "Investigate further. I want to know which direction the room I arranged for Your Majesty of Solterra is in."
The guard immediately said, "It's the best suite in the east."
The east, but they had appeared in the west. No matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem right.
Yelü Qi, who had risen to his current position, naturally had a shrewdness and wisdom that ordinary people couldn't match, as well as a pair of discerning eyes.
He immediately sensed something was wrong and said in a hoarse voice, "Who is the woman by his side?"
The guard shook his head, "I don't know. The room wasn't lit, and the woman was hiding inside the mosquito net and didn't show her face."
At this point, Yelü Qi understood.
This matter might be related to Leonard!
He stood up and ordered the guard, "Go and invite Your Majesty of Solterra over. Tell him I have something important to discuss with him."
The guard nodded and then left to carry out the order.
Yelü Qi still stared at the surveillance screen, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing rapidly one by one.
...
When Freya woke up, she was no longer in the west suite but had returned to the original room.
It seemed that Bradley had carried her back while she was asleep.
She sat up in bed and clearly heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom. When she approached, Bradley had already finished washing up.
It seemed he had also taken a shower. He was only wrapped in a bath towel, and his hair was still wet, dripping with water.
Freya hugged him from behind and pressed her face against his strong back.
The man's mouth curved into a beautiful arc. Looking through the mirror, he smiled and said, "What's wrong?"
Freya then looked up, pursed her lips, and said, "If I'm not wrong, Yelü Qi will come to us soon. After all, our room is here, but we slept in the west guest room all night last night."
No, they had been crazy all night.
Thinking of last night, Freya still felt extremely shy.
The man turned around and wrapped his strong arms around her waist, "Even if he knows, so what? Does he still want to arrest us as if we were criminals?"
"That's not likely. I'm just worried about affecting the relationship between the two countries."
This was what Freya cared about the most.
Although Bradley was a monarch of a country, Solterra was after all a small country, and compared to Country Z, it was really nothing.
Bradley brushed aside the stray hair that fell in front of her temples and said indifferently, "Don't worry. Yelü Qi will turn a blind eye to this matter. After all, he doesn't have any evidence in his hands."
Last night, they had avoided all the surveillance cameras. Plus, it was so dark that even if the surveillance cameras had captured them, they couldn't see their faces.
Even if Yelü Qi had his doubts, without evidence, would he dare to put the blame on them?
