"No matter how close we are, I'm not as close to him as I am to you." After saying this, Freya suddenly stole a kiss from him.

Bradley was stunned for a moment, but soon he smiled with satisfaction. "That's more like it."

After that, he directly put his arm around her slender waist, bent down, cupped her face, and kissed her more passionately.

"But this is still far from enough!"

...

At night.

A strong wind blew out of nowhere.

Freya sat on the bay window drying her hair after taking a shower. Suddenly, there was a lot of noise coming from outside.

Just as she was about to go out to check the situation, a cold glint flashed by.

Sensing the approaching danger, she instinctively move to avoid the blow.

Then, a figure flashed out of the darkness and launched a fierce attack on her.

Freya frowned deeply.

Hadn't those ninjas from Yuan Country already withdrawn? Why was there still someone trying to kill her?

Just as she couldn't figure it out, the opponent had already reached her. Freya quickly counterattacked, and the silver needles in her hand shot out.

The opponent was obviously a master and skillfully avoided the needles, which landed on the ground empty-handed.

"Who are you?"

The moment the opponent got close, Freya smelled a familiar smell, but she couldn't remember where she had smelled it for a while.

"It hasn't been long since we last met. Have you forgotten me so quickly?" The opponent's cold voice came, making Freya narrow her eyes.

So it was someone she knew?

She recalled this smell in her mind, and her pupils suddenly shrank slightly.

"Yuan Xiao?" she questioned.

Upon hearing these two words, the opponent burst into laughter. Then, he took off the mask on his face and showed his true face to Freya.

"It seems that you still have feelings for me. No matter how long we haven't seen each other, you can still think of me at any time."

His tone was as carefree as ever, but on Yuan Xiao's face, there was no longer the former frivolous look. Instead, it was filled with a bit of fierceness.

He hated her and wanted to kill her even more.

Freya never expected that they would meet in such a situation.

However, Yuan Xiao's appearance was just right. They didn't have to go to Yuan Country themselves to catch him.

"I was careless and let you escape last time. Since you've taken the initiative to show up this time, get ready to suffer imprisonment again!" After saying this, Freya flashed forward and took the initiative to attack.

However, Yuan Xiao was very fast and could avoid her moves every time.

"Honey, your skills have deteriorated!" A playful smile played on Yuan Xiao's lips. He folded his arms across his chest and easily avoided the attacks.

The last time he was caught, it was all because he was careless and underestimated his opponent. This time, he had escaped death and would never make the same mistake again.

Thinking of those days in the dungeon that were worse than death, Yuan Xiao quickly composed himself and took out a hidden weapon from his body, preparing to kill Freya.

Just as the silver light flashed, a strange figure appeared in time and sent all the hidden weapons flying out with lightning speed.

Bradley stood there majestically, protecting Freya like a mountain.

His deep black eyes, as sharp as a wolf king lurking in the dark searching for its prey, made Yuan Xiao's legs involuntarily take two steps back.

"Leonard, I've finally been waiting for you!"

...

At the same time.

A piece of news that shocked the whole world came out.

Shocking! Ye Lu An, the new king of Country Z, disregarding ethics, took advantage of his elder brother's illness and had an affair with his brother's wife. This is really a stain on the reputation of a king and subverts people's values As soon as this news spread, it spread like wildfire at an astonishing speed.

Countries around the world were laughing at Ye Lu An, and Ye Lu An also received this news at the first time. He ordered people to use the power of the Internet to suppress the public opinion.

However, once such shocking news spreads, it's not easy to control it quickly.

Just when Ye Lu An was so annoyed that he had no way out, he suddenly remembered that Bradley was a master hacker. So he came to him late at night and asked for his help.

Unexpectedly, he would run into Bradley and Freya being attacked by the man in black.

"Someone, arrest this assassin for me!"

Ye Lu An angrily gave the order.

Soon, a group of guards heard the commotion and surrounded Yuan Xiao.

Yuan Xiao didn't expect to alert the guards of the royal palace. He knew that he wouldn't gain the upper hand if he continued to entangle, so he decided to retreat first.

Before coming, he had made full preparations. When a group of people rushed towards him, he directly threw three smoke bombs and slipped away while the smoke was thick.

"Leonard, Freya, and Ye Lu An, tonight is just the beginning. As long as I, Yuan Xiao, am still alive, I will pursue and kill you without end!"

Before leaving, Yuan Xiao issued a warning.

Freya wanted to chase after him, but the smell of the smoke bombs was so unpleasant that as soon as she took two steps, she felt dizzy and her head was spinning.

Just as she was staggering and about to fall, a hand reached out to support her and then pulled her into his arms.

"There's no need to chase. He will show up again."

Since Yuan Xiao didn't succeed this time, he definitely wouldn't give up easily.

Freya really didn't have the energy to chase either. The smell was as bad as that of a rotten egg. It was the first time she had encountered smoke bombs with such a smell.

When the smoke dissipated, she found the residue of the smoke bombs and carefully examined them.

Having learned so many skills of making bombs from the little rascal with a black heart, she could tell the nature of the bomb at a glance. But these residues were an eerie green instead of the black color after being burned, which made Freya feel incredible.

So she bent down, put on gloves, and took samples of these residues. She planned to study them later to find out what kind of material could have such a great deterrent effect.

The key was that the smoke was both stinky and thick, and it took a long time to dissipate.

Bradley was worried about her health and was about to send her back to her room to rest when Ye Lu An quickly came up and said, "Bradley, I need your help."

Only then did Bradley notice Ye Lu An beside him. He frowned and asked, "What is it?"

Ye Lu An was a bit hesitant to speak. After stuttering for a long time, he simply opened his phone and showed Bradley the news.

After Bradley read it, he said seriously, "What do you need me to do?"

Ye Lu An said, "Use your hacking skills to suppress this public opinion. If we let it develop, it will surely affect the reputation of Country Z. I don't want the whole of Country Z to be disgraced because of my matter."

If it wasn't out of desperation, Ye Lu An wouldn't have turned to Bradley. The key was that the public opinion was growing like wild grass, and its development speed was simply beyond imagination.

"Okay. Come with me, and I'll help you deal with it right away."

As a friend, Bradley would naturally help.

Moreover, Freya had already decided to recognize her relatives, and Country Z was also her homeland. How could he just watch it be destroyed?
