Hearing this, Bradley nodded. "Alright. You go and investigate the situations of the others first. I'll handle Yelü Qi and Yelü An."

"Yes."

Blue Book quickly moved to another position and observed several "special figures" in the Yelü royal family from a distance.

Bradley leaned against the edge of the pool with his back and squinted his eyes, taking a look around.

After a while, there was quite a commotion ahead, and someone shouted, "His Majesty the King is here."

Bradley suddenly raised his eyes. There were two people standing in front of him. One was Yelü Qi, and the other...

Boss Xue?

The moment the other person saw Bradley, he was also stunned. When he tried to turn his head to avoid him, it was already too late.

Yelü Qi noticed the anomaly and asked, "What's wrong, An? Do you know Your Majesty of Solterra from before?"

Boss Xue, no, Yelü An nodded and said, "It's more than just knowing each other. We're still very good friends."

While speaking, the two of them came to Bradley's side.

Bradley stared fixedly at Yelü An. It was not until the other person was a bit at a loss that he took the initiative to say, "Well, Bradley, I've hidden my identity from you. I'm from the Yelü royal family, but that was in the past. Now I have nothing to do with the Yelü royal family."

Bradley understood. Yelü An had already left the family and established his own business. Otherwise, he wouldn't have changed his name to Xue An.

However, according to the news from Blue Book, Yelü An was a doctor who was good at facial restoration. He didn't know that his friend, besides being engaged in business, also knew medical skills.

It seemed that he knew very little about this old friend!

"Everyone has some private matters. Let's get in the water!"

Bradley didn't ask any more questions. Boss Xue must have his own reasons for hiding his identity.

So, why should he uncover someone else's scars?

Of course, if he wanted to talk, he would confess on his own, and there was no need for him to force the question.

"An, you can take a bath with Your Majesty of Solterra. I'm not very convenient, so I won't get in the water." Although Yelü Qi was also wearing a bathrobe, after Yelü An got into the water, he chose to sit on the edge.

He didn't like to participate in such activities in the first place. But as the ruler of Country Z, even if he didn't get in the water, he had to show up and deal with it.

When Bradley heard that he wouldn't get in the water, his pupils shrank slightly.

If Yelü Qi didn't get in the water, how could he know if there was a birthmark on this person's body?

Just as Bradley was trying to find a way to persuade Yelü Qi to get in the water, he saw that Yelü An had already taken off his bathrobe and got in wearing only a pair of swimming trunks.

And at that moment, Bradley clearly saw that there was a familiar birthmark on Yelü An's chest.

No...

Could it be that Freya's biological father wasn't Yelü Qi, but...

Yelü An?

Bradley was shocked by this unexpected discovery.

He stared deeply at the birthmark on Yelü An's body, which was exactly the same as what Blue Book had investigated.

Feeling uncomfortable being stared at, Yelü An touched his head. "Leonard, you already have a wife, but you're still staring at me like this. This makes me think that you have a dual sexual orientation."

Hearing this, Bradley was a bit speechless and looked away.

No matter how long they hadn't seen each other, this old friend's words were still so sharp.

"Don't worry. I only like my wife." The man replied indifferently. His eyes glanced at Yelü Qi and he said, "Your Majesty, you should also get in the water and take a soak. Didn't you say that this hot spring has the effect of curing all kinds of diseases and is good for your health?"

He wanted to verify whether there was a birthmark on Yelü Qi's body.

And the only way to make him unbutton his bathrobe was to get in the water.

When Yelü Qi saw that he was being invited and all the guests were also calling for him to get in the water, after thinking about it, he agreed to them.

"Alright, alright. I'll get in and soak for a while."

He unbuttoned his bathrobe and stepped into the hot spring. His chest was clean and there were no marks at all.

This made Bradley feel incredible.

All along, his primary suspect had been Yelü Qi, but it turned out to be Yelü An.

However, he was actually glad about this result.

If Yelü Qi was really Freya's biological father, Freya would be a princess of the Yelü royal family, and she would surely have to bear a lot in the future. But if she was Yelü An's daughter, and Yelü An had already left the Yelü royal family, Freya would just be an ordinary person.

Moreover, since Yelü An was his old acquaintance, it would be much easier to trace back some issues.

"Nan Xiao, you seem to have something on your mind. What's wrong? Did you quarrel with Freya?" Yelü An had been observing Bradley and found that he looked different and felt that something was not right.

Bradley waved his hand and said, "We're fine."

While the three of them were chatting, some guests came over to strike up a conversation.

Everyone was relatively unfamiliar with Yelü An's identity.

Yelü Qi introduced Yelü An to everyone one by one, which gave Bradley some free time. He called Blue Book over and asked Blue Book to investigate everything about Boss Xue.

At the same time, he also sent a text message to Freya.

'The target has been identified. I'll find an opportunity to meet you later.'

At this moment, Freya was in the women's hot spring area. Those who came here to soak in the hot spring were the family members of honored guests, as well as the concubines and princesses of the Yelü royal family.

When she received the text message, Freya was chatting with some noble ladies.

Everyone was envious of Freya's good fortune in finding such a tall, handsome, and prestigious husband.

Freya smiled and responded. The moment she saw the text message, she said to the noble ladies, "Excuse me. I need to reply to a message."

The noble ladies stopped pestering her when they heard this and went to fawn over the queen and the princess consort one after another.

Freya replied to the text message: Who is it?

This time, she was eager to know the identity of her biological father.

But after sending the text message for a long time, she still didn't receive a reply.

Freya thought that Bradley was busy. She didn't know that at this moment, the man was holding the phone, hesitating about how to reply.

Finally, he typed out three words.

Freya looked at the light on the screen. The three words "Yelü An" clearly came into view.

Sure enough, she had guessed it right. It was this Yelü An who had been removed from the royal family register.

Freya didn't ask any more questions because the queen was already approaching her. She quickly put away her phone and picked up the fruit on the edge and started eating.

"This time, we really owe it all to the Queen of Solterra. Otherwise, we don't know if Mingshuo could have been out of danger."

Hearing the queen's polite words, Freya only felt that they were hypocritical.

However, her good upbringing made her reply with the same kind of polite words. "It's just a small effort. Your Majesty the Queen doesn't have to be so polite."

The queen leaned against the position next to her, and her peripheral vision kept sizing up Freya's face. She had felt vaguely familiar with it when she first saw it. After several contacts, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that Freya was just like someone.

Was it her illusion?

Why did Freya, when looked at from the side, look so much like that woman?

Sensing the other person's intense gaze, Freya pretended not to notice and still enjoyed eating the grapes.

And the queen's gaze became sharper, even with a strange gleam. Finally, Freya couldn't bear it anymore and turned her head to look at the queen. "By the way, how is Princess Xingyue?"

These days, everyone had only been paying attention to Yelü Mingshuo, but Xingyue had been neglected.
