Chapter 17: I'm Not Wrong
As soon as Freya walked out of the conference room, she immediately attracted the attention of everyone around her.
Everyone was not surprised that she suddenly appeared here, nor did they deliberately greet her, but just nodded their heads one after another.
This is what Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, has been asking all these years, and he hopes that the people around Freya can try not to treat her with a special attitude, so that she can grow up normally like an ordinary child.
Of course, this is undoubtedly a beautiful wish of Xu Yi and even dismissed as "naΓ―ve" by Steele, in fact, no matter what, Freya's identity as Xu Yi's only heir makes her look extremely special, and it is impossible for others to treat her normally.
Besides, even putting aside Freya's identity, just relying on the natural beauty she inherited from Steele is enough for her to attract people's attention wherever she goes, and get special treatment from others.
However, Freya herself has long been accustomed to this kind of thing, and she does not have any special thoughts about it.
But she still doesn't like the feeling of being surrounded by a bunch of people, which makes her feel very unfree.
Therefore, she likes the elven secret treasure that Elder Lisanya has given her since she was a child-the illusion skin, which allows her to change her face at will and experience the life of ordinary people with another identity to the fullest.
Seeing that the people around her obviously had a very enthusiastic smile on their faces, but they didn't dare to approach because of her father's regulations, and tried to make a calm appearance, Freya felt funny in her heart, but she maintained a perfect smile on her face, and responded to everyone without leaking.
No matter the demeanor, appearance, manners. and even every move. are perfectly in line with the image that she should have as she is. I can't fault it.
Being able to do this comes from the fact that her mother Steele has been super strict with her since she was a child.
Keeping this perfect posture all the way, Freya slowly walked out of the door of the Magic Communication Research Institute building and got into a new fiery red magic car.
As soon as she closed the door, she let out a long breath, and the gentle standard smile on her face instantly turned into a playful face.
"Hey, Rinoa, have you figured out where to go?"
If Lucian were here. Will definitely jump in shock.
Sitting in the co-pilot seat of this magic car is a young elven girl with almost perfect facial features, a trace of mystery in her noble temperament, and these two long ears, who is the most outstanding star of the elf clan at present, and Miss Linoya, who has fascinated countless men on the Sainz continent!
Rinoa smiled and looked Freya up and down, shaking her head slightly.
"It's a pity that we don't have time to go anywhere now. β
"Why?" said Freya, stunned.
Rinoa raised the small and delicate magic phone box on her right hand and shook it.
"Because I just received the news that the elder has returned. β
Freya was stunned, then her eyes widened.
"Won't you? Mother is back?"
Rinoya is not an employee of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. She, a big star, is now under the name of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, so the "Lord" in her mouth is not Xu Yi. It's the president of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, Freya's mother, Steele.
Looking at Freya's frightened face, she couldn't help but sneer.
"Are you so afraid of growing up?"
"It's not that I'm afraid...... Well, just be afraid. Freya leaned on the wheel in distress and let out a long sigh. "If she knew what I did last month, I'd be dead......"
Rinoya reached out and tugged at Freya's ear, and laughed, "You deserve it." Who let you run away on your own to go on an adventure? What if something happens? Don't say that the elders will scold you when they find out, I'm afraid that President Xu will not let you go this time. β
"It can't be that serious, right?" Hearing Rinoya mention her father, Freya jerked up from the steering wheel, thought for a moment, and shook her head vigorously. "No, my father doesn't scold me, but he always encourages me to experience more things. β
"That's not for you to take risks. Rinoya gave Xu Yi a blank look. "If something happens to you, I'm sure President Xu will die of grief. β
"Hmm...... I'm sure of that, but I'm not in trouble......" Freya pursed her lips, frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly glanced at Rinoya and snorted softly: "Hmph! I knew you wouldn't come to play with me for nothing, to be honest, you were a spy sent by your mother, right?"
Rinoya suddenly laughed: "Whether I am a spy or not, now that the Lord has summoned me, what are you going to do?"
"See it, it's not a dead man......" Freya muttered, skillfully starting the magic car, and in the blink of an eye, she had already rushed out of the door of the Magic Research Institute, heading for the sea.
Ten minutes later, the magic car turned into a fiery red light and rushed into Xu Yi's manor on the coastal cliff next to the main base.
As soon as the car stopped, Freya immediately opened the door and flew directly to the gate of the main hall of the manor, and threw herself into the arms of a beautiful woman.
"Mother, you're back! I'm so glad to see you!"
This beautiful woman is naturally Steele.
She glanced at Freya, who was looking up in her arms with a flattering smile on her face, and snorted coldly.
"Are you really happy to see me?"
Freya's face changed slightly, then she smiled even brighter, and shook her arms around Steele.
"Of course I'm glad to see you, how could I not be happy to see you? I remember...... Last time I saw you...... At least two months ago, right?"
Hearing this, Steele's face showed a subtle hint of gloom.
In order to be busy with the work of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce, she did have very little time at home, and she had very little time to spend with her two children.
This makes Freya and her brother always be more in awe than close to Steele when facing Steele.
"Hey, Freya. I warned you last time. Don't always try to stir up the guilt in your mother's heart to escape possible punishment. I don't like that. β
A voice that didn't sound very distinctive, but very clear, low and full of energy came from inside the door.
Hearing this, Freya's eyebrows rose sharply, and with a cheer, she bypassed Steele and threw herself behind her.
Xu Yi snorted lightly, and a light shield flashing with pale cyan light immediately appeared in front of him. Keep Freya out of the way.
Freya grinned, and as soon as the magic power in her body moved, the magic elements in the magic space around her body immediately became abnormally fluid, and in the blink of an eye, the magic shield that Xu Yi had stretched out was invisible.
Xu Yi sighed, the corners of his mouth twitched, and the magic power in his body surged again, and another layer of magic shield was laid down.
Freya was not surprised at all, and with a few clicks of her hands, the magical elements around her immediately began to flow in a different way.
This time she took a little longer. It took about seven or eight seconds to break the magic shield that Xu Yibu had laid.
"Not bad. Xu also praised it. Another layer of magic shield was placed in front of him.
Freya tried twice, but couldn't break the magic shield, so she stopped and frowned.
Steele, who had been left behind, couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this.
"Okay, you father and daughter want to play games as you like, but can you see the time and occasion?"
Xu Yi laughed, removed the magic shield, patted Freya on the shoulder, and pointed at Steele.
"Go, apologize to your mother. β
"Oh. Freya answered, glanced back at Steele, took a deep breath, strode up to Steele, and bent down deeply.
"Mom, I'm sorry!"
Steele had a smile on his face, but his tone remained low.
"Why are you sorry?"
"I shouldn't have deliberately brought up your sad story just to make you reluctant to punish me. I'm sorry!" Freya replied loudly.
"Oh? Is that just it?"
Freya paused, then straightened up and looked directly at Steele.
"If you think what I did last month was wrong, then you can punish me as much as you like, I have no opinion. But...... I don't think I'm wrong! β
Steele's eyes widened: "You still refuse to admit your mistake?"
"Yes. The decision to sneak in was the result of my discussions with Uncle Harris and them, and Uncle Harris agreed. And at that time, I was the only one who had the conditions to infiltrate because I had the illusion skin, and no one else could do it. It turned out to be a big help for us to solve this problem and fully protect the safety of those students. Freya replied proudly.
"You ......" Steele raised his eyebrows and wanted to reprimand Freya, but seeing that the expression on her face was very firm, and she didn't look soft at all, she could only turn her gaze to Xu Yi behind her.
Xu Yi coughed lightly and said, "Freya, I agree with your views and practices, but I am not satisfied with your attitude towards your mother. β
Freya stuck out her tongue, a smile on her face again, and rushed over to hug Steele.
"Mom, I know I'm going on an adventure and I'm worried about you. But don't worry at all, I'm strong now, and those guys can't hurt me. Besides, I have Uncle Harris as a backup, so I don't have to be afraid. β
"What if something happens?" Steele glared at her.
"If no one knows for sure, if I were afraid, I might fall a rock even if I was sitting at home. Freya grinned.
"It's going to be strong. Steele waited for Freya to look at it again, sighed, looked at Xu Yi, and shook his head slightly. "If you are so used to her again, you will have a headache in the future. β
Xu Yi slightly, did not refute Steele's words, but looked at Freya's gaze gradually became serious.
Freya was a little surprised by Xu Yi's sudden change in her eyes.
She had the impression that her father rarely took her face so seriously.
Could it be ...... Is something big going on?
Thinking of this, Freya immediately became nervous. (To be continued......)
