Chapter 578 It turns out to be an old acquaintance again.

Before anyone could react, Liang He had taught the man a lesson in the blink of an eye, making him obedient and docile, and he dared not utter another word of provocation.

Queen Kaya and Ms. Ye An, who were completely unprepared for Liang He's cunning schemes, showed no disgust upon seeing this; instead, their eyes were filled with admiration and amazement.

"We strong, independent women should be just like Xiaohe!"

Queen Kaya spoke to Ms. Ye An in a low voice, but her tone was full of excitement and exhilaration.

In fact, given her past temperament, she would have directly used force to subdue this kind of scum.

However, since becoming the Queen of the Empire, Queen Kaya has had to be more careful about her words and actions, and she has no choice in what she does.

Even if the other party is at fault, once her identity is exposed, public opinion may shift to condemnation under the guidance of her political enemies.

"Xiao He is a really great child!"

Ms. Ye An watched Liang He easily subdue the man and was equally impressed.

In her opinion, Liang He was not only brave, but also resourceful.

Based on Liang He's actions before she hit someone, even if law enforcement officers were to arrive, they could only determine that she acted in self-defense.

"Ouch...you dare hit me?! I'm going to report you to the law enforcement! I'll have you arrested!"

The man lying on the ground groaning, it was unclear whether he had recovered or not, but his IQ was still below par, and he kept making threats.

Liang He simply smiled at this.

"Don't worry, I've already contacted the law enforcement bureau, and I'm sure they'll send someone to pick you up soon."

In Liang He's mind, if there's a problem, you should go to law enforcement, especially law-abiding citizens like herself.

So after Liang He learned the cause and course of events from the onlookers, she immediately contacted the law enforcement bureau and subtly revealed the identities of Queen Kaya and her entourage.

Since they are law enforcement agencies, Liang He doesn't need to worry about them leaking information.

"you?!"

The man was clearly taken aback by Liang He's swift and ruthless attack, and stood frozen in place for a moment.

Only after the law enforcement officers took him away and the crowd dispersed did Liang He notice that the guests who had been sitting in a corner had quietly left.

"Aunt Kaya, Aunt Ye An, let's leave first."

Seeing the fleeting wariness in Liang He's eyes, Queen Kaya and Lady Ye An exchanged a glance, nodded imperceptibly, and followed in Liang He's footsteps.

Soon, the three people and two beasts appeared in the restaurant's private room.

"You're finally back. Nothing serious happened, right?"

Upon seeing them, Reina and her two companions, who were waiting in the private room, immediately came forward and inquired about the situation with concern.

"It's alright, Xiaohe has already taken care of it for us."

Queen Kaya smiled gratefully at Liang He and then took her seat.

If she keeps standing, the children will have to stand with her, which is not good.

"Actually, even if I hadn't arrived in time, someone would have taken care of it."

Faced with Queen Kaya's gratitude, Liang He felt unworthy of it.

Firstly, because Queen Kaya has bodyguards protecting her; if anything were to happen, the bodyguards could simply intervene and everything would be fine.

Secondly, she suspected that Queen Kaya's undeserved misfortune might be related to the rebels.

"You mean, that man was a rebel?"

Everyone was clearly surprised by Liang He's guess.

Due to time constraints, the guests in the adjacent private rooms had already left. Seeing this, the guards responsible for protecting Queen Kaya dared not delay any longer and immediately booked both private rooms, so Liang He didn't need to worry about anyone overhearing their conversation.

As for whether there are any listening devices, that's something that professionals can handle, so it's not a problem. Besides, there are several SSS-level orcs in their private room.

"No, that man is an ordinary person; he was just being used by the rebels."

Liang He was able to confirm this because the rebels who instigated the men were her acquaintances—Li Ke.

“Even though he changed his identity and appearance, some of his ingrained habits still can’t be erased.”

For someone like Liang He, who can quickly identify similarities or differences in dynamic images, no matter how clever Rick's disguise is, it cannot escape her eyes.

Rick was quite pleased with himself for a while after Nick appointed him as the deputy head of the Dark Division.

Unfortunately, his good fortune didn't last long. After Liang He destroyed the original headquarters and caused Commander Nick's legs to be crippled, he lost the trust of the leader, Drewville, and Lick, the deputy minister, became a laughing stock.

"So, he took on this mission to get revenge on you?"

Folpers' worried gaze swept back and forth across Liang He's face, clearly fearing that she might fall victim to the virus.

"Perhaps Nick, who's behind him, wants revenge on me."

Liang He scoffed lightly, somewhat unconvinced.

Rick's first attempt at deception failed; did he really expect to actually fool her?

"It's not accurate to call it retaliation; it's more likely that the rebels sent them to gather intelligence in advance."

There's no doubt that if the rebels are planning something big, they'll definitely send people to infiltrate Silverstar.

"So, you actually knew all along that we would be targeted by the rebels if we came out today, right?"

Ms. Ye An finally understood.

Is Liang He using them as a decoy to lure the rebels?
"Feel sorry."

Faced with Ms. Ye An's question, Liang He did not try to argue or explain, but sincerely apologized to them.

This made Ms. Ye An, who already had a very good impression of her, unable to bear asking with a straight face. She immediately revealed her true colors and burst out laughing.

"What's there to apologize for? You're not saying anything because you're afraid our acting won't be good enough and will mess things up, right?"

In Ms. Ye An's view, if Liang He really told them in advance, there would be rebels watching them or causing trouble.

Therefore, both Queen Kaya and her, as well as the guards secretly protecting them, would be on high alert at all times, and the man who was being used would have no chance of getting close to them.

This could easily arouse suspicion from the rebels, who might think they were prepared in advance.

"Actually, it's normal for Aunt Kaya to have someone secretly protecting her when she goes out, but if we're too vigilant, it might trigger a stress response from the rebels, since I tricked them before."

After hearing Liang He's explanation, everyone nodded in agreement.

"You're right to do that."

Queen Kaya also agreed with Liang He's decision and did not feel that Liang He had failed to consider her safety.

"Besides, you've done a great job. You showed up immediately and helped us drive that person away and teach him a lesson."

So what reason do they have to be so dramatic and blame Liang He?

"In any case, I should still apologize to you both for this."

In Liang He's view, Queen Kaya and Ms. Ye An's magnanimity in not holding a grudge does not mean that she can accept it as a matter of course.

However, this attitude of both sides being considerate of each other and having no grudges is clearly more conducive to bringing them closer.

Just like now, Queen Kaya and Ms. Ye An's fondness for Liang He has reached a new level.

"Haha~ If you really feel bad about it, how about buying us a gift when we go shopping later?"
