Xia Yiran and Ruo Manni used to be neighbors. Ever since she learned that the two girls from her neighbors' families were admitted to the No. 1 Military Academy of Xuan Gu, she has been paying attention to the two girls.
Xia Yiran was very proud of these two girls in her heart, she thought to herself, "So what if we are commoners? We commoners can also be admitted to the No. 1 Military Academy of Xuan Gu." She also had a hidden sense of pride, so Xia Yiran had boasted about her neighbor's little sister to her colleagues many times.
Who knew that one of the girls later broke a big news. Xia Yiran was stunned. She couldn't believe that someone around her had such a bloody life experience.
However, after it was confirmed that this matter was true, over time, the image of the cute and shy little sister in Xia Yiran's memory gradually disappeared, and was replaced by the image of a proud lady from a noble family.
However, because Xia Yiran often praised the talented girl in her neighbor's family, when Ruo Manni's life story was revealed, her colleagues in the same department all knew that she and Hua De Manni, now known as Miss Huang Yuxing, were once neighbors. She also received a lot of care for this and became a prime-time program anchor.
When everyone knew that Feixun News, as the largest news website in Huangyu Star, was assigned to interview the eldest lady, many anchors were eager to try. Needless to say, they knew that being able to interview this legendary eldest lady would definitely set a record for the click rate of their anchors' programs.
As a slightly popular anchor, Xia Yiran never thought that this would happen to her. Xia's father and mother had told her that they had received a lot of favors from the young lady, so they should not use the past relationship to do anything, so as not to cause trouble for the young lady.
Xia Yiran planned for me to just listen without saying anything, but this opportunity fell on her head.
Needless to say the big anchors who thought themselves to be very qualified made a scene, but when they found out that this was just a small red anchor, it turned out to be the eldest lady’s former neighbor.
This young anchor turned out to be the eldest daughter’s neighbor. They understood why the top management chose a young anchor. Although they were still a little dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not say anything rude anymore.
Xia Yiran was suddenly hit by a pie falling from the sky, and she was excited and nervous. Others thought that she and the eldest daughter were neighbors and they should have a good relationship, but in fact, she studied and worked outside all year round, so how could she be close to the neighbor's little sister?
But Xia Yiran couldn't say it, because this rare opportunity fell on her because she knew the eldest lady.
"Don't be afraid. That girl is a good one. Until now, every once in a while, she still remembers to ask people to bring things to us neighbors and arrange better accommodation for us. She is not the kind of person who changes her personality once she succeeds. Just talk to her nicely. But if your news network wants to make a fuss about some of her things, and you can't stop it from treating her badly, just tell her directly and don't let others embarrass her." After all, Father Xia was knowledgeable. After his words, Xia Yiran felt a lot more at ease.
Anyway, according to her father's opinion, they firmly stood on the side of the eldest lady, and Xia Yiran was naturally the same. When she decided on her position, she began to feel relieved. She did know the eldest lady. Although she was not very familiar with the eldest lady, her parents and the eldest lady were very good.
Although she was mentally prepared, when Xia Yiran and her two companions walked into the seemingly low-key but actually exquisite Huade Villa, and saw the scene that could not be seen in the civilian world, she unconsciously became a little nervous.
Xia Yiran was afraid that the eldest lady would not remember her, or that she would not like the people who knew her before to appear in front of her. Some people, after becoming rich, do not like to see the people they knew when they were weak.
As a result, when they entered the reception room, a girl in white casual clothes stood up and greeted them with a smile, and Xia Yiran's tense mind relaxed.
Although her appearance had changed a lot, the eldest lady recognized her at a glance, called her without hesitation, and asked them to sit down and talk.
Xia Yi took a quick look at the living room which was decorated in an antique style and found it to be aristocratic, low-key yet luxurious style.
The bronze incense burner on the table next to the host was emitting wisps of white smoke. Not only was there no smell of smoke in the living room, but there was only a very refreshing and comfortable fragrance.
Xia Yiran knew that this was a very popular aromatherapy among the upper class aristocrats. The spices in the incense burner were very precious and very good for the human body. She had only seen it once, and the fragrance of the incense was not so good that time.
"I didn't expect that it would be Sister Yiran who came to interview me. This really surprised me." Ruo Manni said with a smile.
Ruo Manni looked like a girl next door, with no alienation or arrogance in her eyes, and her smile was as pure as that girl back then. She didn't expect that Ruo Manni was not only willing to remember her experiences of wandering outside, but also didn't mind talking about it.
"With my qualifications, this opportunity shouldn't have been mine, but they knew I knew you, so they let me come." Xia Yiran said frankly.
"I have been back to Huangyu Star for a few months, but because I was busy with military training and in order not to cause trouble to everyone, I have not been back to check on you. I wonder if everyone is doing well?" Ruo Manni said with a smile.
Ruo Manni liked Xia Yiran's frank attitude, as it was a way of conversation that made it easy for both of them.
"Everyone is very nice. Knowing that I came to see you today, they all asked me to give you gifts." Xia Yiran said.
It was really good, because Ruo Manni was taken care of by all the neighbors in Huangyu Star. After the Huade family recognized her, they sent people to Huangyu Star to settle the six neighbors who had taken care of Ruo Manni.
Now they live in a small villa area for the rich, and their work and quality of life have improved a lot.
Ruo Manni knew about this, but Hua Deyu did this not just to express gratitude to them, but also to allow them to leave their previous place and move to an area with tight security. This would prevent someone from wanting to take advantage of Ruo Manni and then taking out their anger on someone related to Ruo Manni if they couldn't find the real culprit.
The place where they originally lived was a civilian area, with too many strangers coming in and out, making it difficult to guard against those with ulterior motives.
When Ruo Manni heard Xia Yiran say this, she just said politely: "My father and mother are very grateful to you. They are very happy to be able to repay you. What makes them most sad is that I am alone and no one cares about me."
Ruo Manni's words made Xia Yiran even happier, and soon the two of them completed the interview task smoothly.
If Manni's identity was so special, Feixun News Network didn't dare to publish any articles at all. Most of the topics were about the alien invasion that everyone was concerned about, as well as future confrontation plans.
Ruo Manni naturally took the opportunity to say something to inspire the people, making them believe that the empire would definitely find ways to protect their homeland, and all they had to do now was to practice hard.
Finally, it was inevitable to gossip about her relationship with the Second Prince. Xia Yiran was also very curious about this issue. She also watched the Second Prince's interview on the news that day and felt that the Second Prince really liked their eldest daughter.
In response to Xia Yiran's question, Ruo Manni smiled slightly, but her eyes suddenly looked at the other female companion who came with Xia Yiran.
Xia Yiran immediately knew that something was wrong, but before she had time to turn around, she felt that the aura of her companion suddenly became extremely strong.
Before Xia Yiran could react to what was happening, she saw the woman suddenly leap towards Ruo Manni. The posture and speed were not like those of an ordinary human being, and the aura that suddenly burst out from her was twice as strong as Ruo Manni's.
Xia Yiran was only a third-level warrior and could not help Ruo Manni at all. Seeing this scene, she did not scream in fear and helplessness, but stepped back while shouting loudly: "Help, help, help me..."
Xia Yiran was caught by the girl next to Ruo Manni before she could even shout twice, and was dragged out of the hall. Her male colleague was treated the same way, and was caught and dragged out by the boy next to Ruo Manni after being paid by him.
Xia Yiran was shocked and panicked. The woman who attacked Ruo Manni turned out to be a high-priced warrior. She was clearly her colleague when she came, but now she looked different.
However, Xia Yiran was not dragged out of the hall. She saw that Ruo Manni reacted quickly. She easily dodged the woman's direct attack. At the same time, a silver light flashed in her hand, and five flying knives shot directly at the woman, forcing the woman to dodge. However, the woman was also very fast. She dodged the flying knives and rushed forward again...
What Xia Yiran didn't see was that at this moment, two mid-level seventh-level warriors suddenly appeared in the hall, blocking the woman on the left and right, and Ruo Manni also took the opportunity to leave the hall.
When she went outside, Ruo Manni saw the two people who were captured and frowned.
However, for safety reasons, Ruo Manni took a closer look at Xia Yiran, and said to Silla Shahin who had captured her, “Sister Yiran is fine, but you can’t let her go back like this. It’s too unsafe. After the matter is resolved, send someone to send her back.”
“I understand.” After hearing what Rumanni said, Silla Shahin let go of the person in her hand.
Xia Yiran was a commoner girl, and had never experienced such a thrilling and terrifying scene. She had just been captured so fiercely. After being released, she was a little dazed and trembling, looking at Ruo Manni for help, at a loss.
"Sister Yiran, don't be afraid. These people are from the National Security Bureau. Just cooperate with them. Silla, you look after Sister Yiran and don't let her suffer any grievances." Ruo Manni smiled at Xia Yiran soothingly.
Ruo Manni knew that there was nothing wrong with Xia Yiran, but she didn't know whether she was innocent in this matter, so it must be investigated by the National Security Bureau.
"Yes, Miss." Sheila Shahin looked as if she had received an order.
"Miss, please leave here quickly in case they have other attack plans. People here will be safer if you leave." Adjutant Ma honestly drove her away.
She spoke as if she was the cause of trouble. Ruo Manni glared at Adjutant Ma and went straight back to the barracks under the protection of the guards.
It took Sheila Shahin two full hours to come back and she slumped down next to Romannie.
"What did you do to my neighbor sister?" Ruo Manni asked her.
"She is indeed fine, and so is her male colleague. We have told them not to leak the matter and asked them to take the interview back. But your neighbor girl was really scared. Those people from the National Security Bureau were so simple and crude in their actions. They don't know what it means to be gentle with women. For your sake, I comforted her and said that it was a good thing that she was related to you, otherwise she didn't know how she would be implicated. She felt much better." said Sheila Shahin.
Ruo Manni thanked her absentmindedly. Xia Yiran must have been frightened today. But she was lucky not to be implicated. Sheila Shahin was right. Those people from the National Security Bureau treated her and her colleagues lightly because of Ruo Manni.
"To be honest, those people usually take good care of you, but when it comes to taking advantage of you, they are still ruthless. You are also cruel to yourself, going ahead even though you know it's dangerous." Sheila Shahin sighed.
"This force was most likely targeting me. Should I not lure them out when they are not fully prepared and wait for them to gain a foothold before assassinating me?" Ruo Manni said helplessly.
She and Hebrew Adam are both obvious targets. Because she is a girl and usually keeps a low profile, and the Watt family has a strong family cohesion, she has rarely been the target of assassination attempts.
Hebrew Adam was the real danger because he not only had to face danger from outside, but also from his own family.
Although this kind of royal power in the interstellar age is limited, it is after all the supreme ruler of the empire and can still be inherited. Therefore, there are many ambitious people in the Adam clan who are planning carefully in secret.
The serious conflict between the second prince and the first prince in the novel was caused by them. Now that the two princes have joined forces, someone wants to destroy the second prince.
Today's situation doesn't seem to be very dangerous, but in fact, if something goes wrong, no one in the entire villa will survive.
Because the killer was also a human bomb, a human bomb with the cultivation level of the late seventh level. Ruo Manni had no other way to survive except to hide in the jade pendant space.
The National Security Bureau had a problem with the phishing plan this time. They didn't expect the killer to sneak in among the news station staff. They had checked these three staff members in advance and let them in only after they found no problems.
Fortunately, Ruo Manni's perception ability is super sharp now. As soon as she found something wrong, she immediately lit the incense. This incense was asked by her cousin or the National Security Bureau to bring it to Ruo Manni.
It is said that when a human bomb smells this fragrance, the brain will feel dazed and the controlled nerves will become sluggish, making it difficult to "ignite" the explosive factors in the body.
When Ruo Manni found out that the killer had no intention of attacking her right from the start, she pretended to be nonchalant and chatted with the neighbor girl to delay time, and then entered the interview session, just to let the killer smell more fragrance.
Sure enough, the killer did not forget her mission and attacked Ruomanni.
Originally, if the killer couldn't kill Ruo Manni quickly, he should have chosen to die with her.
But the killer never self-destructed and was finally knocked unconscious by the two experts from the National Security Bureau, who injected him with a sedative and took him away.
"Not only can the killer disguise himself as someone else, he can even pretend his cultivation level is only level three. This is truly terrifying! How can anyone be on guard against him? How did you discover it?" Sheila Shahin became more and more frightened the more he thought about it.
"When I scanned them with my telekinesis, I felt that there was something wrong with that woman. I didn't notice those problems, but I just felt that something was wrong. To be safe, I lit the incense. Fortunately, I was alert." Ruo Manni said.
