Top-class Bodyguard

"Ren."

Ren Feng turned around and saw Lucia in a princess dress, smiling brightly at him.

"Your Highness."

Ren Feng bowed.

"Ren, don't be so distant. You saved me, and now just a few days have passed without seeing you, and you're already acting distant?"

Lucia looked somewhat displeased.

Ren Feng chuckled: "Princess, it's just proper etiquette."

Lucia nodded and, without hesitation, took Ren Feng by the hand and led him away from the guards.

"Do you need something, Your Highness?"

"Yes." Lucia's eyes twinkled mischievously, "Ren, take me out for some fun."

"Huh?"

Ren Feng was a bit stunned.

"The royal family is really boring. Staying here is no fun at all. You saved me last time, so this time you can take me out to play."

Ren Feng felt uneasy: "Well, that's not really appropriate."

"What's not appropriate? Just take me out for a day. There's an event tonight by the Thames River in London."

Ren Feng hesitated, trying to figure out how to decline. He realized that this princess truly loves to play, which might explain why she ran off to Spain last time.

"Ren, if you don't take me out this time, once I become the Queen of the United Kingdom, I'll deny all the treaties signed with my grandmother."

As Ren Feng pondered, Lucia suddenly spoke calmly, her demeanor changing dramatically to resemble Queen Victoria's solemn majesty, giving off an aura of superiority.

Ren Feng felt speechless; is this really the way to threaten someone?

"Fine, just for one night."

"Great, I'll go change clothes. You wait for me in the small garden on the right side of the courtyard."

Lucia left immediately, leaving Ren Feng with no choice but to head to the small garden. There were few guards here, and the walls were covered in green vines.

Before long, Lucia emerged, dressed as a palace maid. She looked nothing like a princess, with her face completely concealed.

"Okay, climb over the wall."

Lucia said.

Ren Feng felt helpless: "I'll hold your waist and jump over."

"Works for me."

Ren Feng grasped Lucia's soft waist and swiftly leaped over the wall, landing them quickly in a small alley outside the royal palace.

Lucia immediately removed the maid outfit to reveal a simple top and shorts underneath.

"Alright, let's go."

Lucia grabbed Ren Feng's hand and confidently led the way outside. Clearly, this wasn't the first time she'd done something like this.

Ren Feng was puzzled; Lucia definitely had many sides, and he wondered what other hidden facets she might have.

Honestly, Ren Feng felt reluctant to accompany the princess. He had a lot of matters to attend to. Catherine's list had been sent already; he needed to handle the forces in Europe, then head to the United States, and finally return home.

Apart from that, he'd instructed Catherine to have someone investigate unusual occurrences in the Pacific Ocean. Ren Feng was also intrigued by what Zeus said about an ancient relic site.

What secrets are hidden in the Ancient Era, and why did all the cultivators suddenly disappear?

While Ren Feng was indulged in these thoughts, the princess pulled him directly onto the street.

"Where shall we play first?"

Lucia pondered, then her eyes lit up.

"Let's go gambling."

What?

A princess wanted to take him gambling?

Ren Feng almost couldn't believe it, internally flustered by this changeable princess.

"But the casino is not yet open; it's not evening."

"I know a place that's open 24 hours."

With no other words, Ren Feng could only follow Lucia.

Soon, the two arrived at a high-end hotel, took the elevator up, and found themselves at the casino.

Lucia eagerly looked around: "Do you know how to gamble?"

"A little."

"What's our first step?"

Ren Feng slapped his forehead, feeling quite speechless: "First, we exchange chips."

The princess nodded: "You have money, right?"

Ren Feng's mouth twitched; seriously, I'm just here to accompany you, and now I have to foot the bill?

Yet, as Lucia was a princess, he conceded to her rank and approached someone to transfer money and exchange for chips.

Having gambled several times on a casino ship before, Ren Feng started explaining things to Lucia.

"This is called Russian Roulette, the ball lands on a number, and that number wins."

"Let's bet on 8."

Lucia placed her bet, but soon furrowed her brow: "This is too hard; let's try another game."

Ren Feng led her to the next game.

"This one is called Big and Small, where dice are rolled and results are determined by their size."

"Let's bet on small."

"It's 456? Never mind; let's switch again."

Ren Feng, feeling helpless, took her to the next one.

"This one is Poker..."

"This is the slot machine..."

"This is Banker..."

Ren Feng kept introducing, while Lucia's reactions were:

"Oh no, lost again, switch to another."

"Lost again, change one."

"Change."

"Change."

Lucia lost continuously, but fortunately, she was only trying things for fun, betting small each time, yet the win rate thus far was zero.

No matter what game she played, it seemed that Lucia's outcomes were only losses.

"Why can't I win?" Lucia looked at Ren Feng.

Ren Feng felt speechless; why should she be looking at him?

But at this moment, a man from afar, who had been watching Lucia since she entered the casino, focused his gaze on her. His attention had been on Lucia all along.

With his keen eye, he immediately sensed Lucia was a top-tier beauty. Strong could confirm that she had an irresistibly charming aura that captivated him.

As for Ren Feng beside her, Strong completely ignored him.

Seeing Lucia seem to be on the losing end with her chips nearly depleted, Strong smiled gently and adjusted his tie. It was time for him to step in.

Ren Feng commented, "That's gambling for you; sometimes it's all about luck."

Lucia's expression remained calm: "Really? I can't believe my luck is this bad."

Ren Feng found it strange; Lucia had played nearly twenty different gambling games, losing all of them. Such a remarkable 'record' might only be achievable by Lucia herself.

After all, no matter how bad you are, luck should allow you to win at least once, but not Lucia.

Just then, a man in a tie and suit approached, smiling: "Excuse me, beautiful lady, I've noticed you seem to be losing consistently?"
