Chapter 193 - Bodyguard Play

The lights skimmed across the city, and everything was melded with the sweetly abstract shadows.

The translucent luxury extended suspension car came to a stop at the entrance of a private castle.

The evening breeze carried a light and soapy fragrance that replicated the cla.s.sical aromatherapy scent from the Fifth Avenue. The closer they drew to the castle, the stronger the soft, sticky vanilla fragrance became.

An attendant carefully opened the door.

Before the young master got out of the car, a young and handsome bodyguard first stepped out on long legs. The pure black suit made him seem even more handsome and emphasized his calm and solemn style. His chest held a pure white handkerchief embroidered with a n.o.ble familys emblem, and only a corner of it could be seen.

The captain of the guard took out the handkerchief, spread it flat on his palm, and bent over to reach into the car.

Beneath the handkerchief, the thick gun calluses on the mans fingertips gave the attendants a sense of awe, and they immediately lowered their gazes respectfully.

A leopard cat jumped gracefully out the door.

Then came the young n.o.ble aristocrat who casually stretched out his right hand to the bodyguard. The bodyguards rough, heated palm held Wu Jin through the expensive handkerchief.

The young aristocrat was soon hidden from their view by the bodyguards thick shoulders and back.

Wei s.h.i.+ handed Wu Jin the handkerchief.

Wu Jin wiped his hands and tossed it back to the big boss who was pretending to be a bodyguard. An attendant immediately came up to take their luggage out of the suspension car for them.

Two suites. Steward Researcher Song casually stuffed a 200 credit tip at the attendant and gave Wu Jin a tiny nod, following the luggage to a ramp on the side.

The main entrance to the castle opened up.

Welcome to the Star of Bliss, Castle Augustine.

There was a

ding

, and indoor music floated out from behind the revolving door. An 80 meter tall artificial waterfall was suspended in the air, and behind the translucent curtain of water was a floating bar that was drenched with money. The velvet carpets led to the castles suites, and there were champagne rose petals scattered on the luxurious flooring.

Countless n.o.bles and n.o.blewomen were indulging themselves in this fragrant water paradise.

Wu Jin, whod never seen the world, instantly widened his eyes. At the table closest to them, there were a few girls in light colored dresses who looked like fairies whod fallen from the sky!

Wei s.h.i.+ leaned in, as though whispering into his young masters ear.

Wei s.h.i.+s voice was hoa.r.s.e, Who are you looking at.

Wu Jin shrank back. His desire for survival was very strong, and he quickly s.h.i.+fted his gaze away. The arrival of new guests soon attracted a lot of attention from scattered areas of the room. In the Star of Bliss, fresh faces who appeared looking for fun or young aristocrats who had never appeared before were things that happened every day.

However, this gentleman hadnt even brought a female partner with him.

The management on the first floor of the castle immediately rang a bell, and men and women dressed in lovely clothing all came up to surround Wu Jin.

Wu Jin retreated.

His keen sense of hearing swept through the area and seemed to catch a slight mechanical sc.r.a.ping soundit sounded like several surveillance cameras had turned over at the same time. After half a year at the Crosson Base, Wu Jins instincts towards cameras were far above other peoples.

The management of the castle was also a little hesitant. Very few guests would refuse wine and beauty when they came.

Wu Jin took a deep breath.

The young aristocrat said nothing, his thin skin the pale, cold color that only n.o.bles had. His pupils were a beautiful amber color, and it was difficult for people to dislike such a good looking little n.o.ble no matter how arrogantly he acted.

He nodded to his bodyguard; his eyes only held warmth when he looked at his male bodyguard.

Bodyguard Wei s.h.i.+ went up respectfully and talked to his master in a low voice.

The young n.o.bles fingers that were covered in ornaments circled around the bodyguards muscular waist, as though wanting to hold him close.

The gossipers and onlookers around hesitated for a moment.

Wei s.h.i.+ nodded, then walked away from Wu Jins side to talk to the management. He was very close with the young master just now, and their postures even seemed ambiguous. Through the cameras, they could clearly see a red mark on the side of the young masters neckk2013;k2013;

The cameras moved away.

Its fine. In the surveillance room, the castle guard recorded the facial recognition codes for the two men and marked them with a green low risk symbol. Its another one who is pretending while bringing their lover here on vacation.

The private castle was officially opened up for the two of them.

The first floor of the castle was a retro style courtyard arranged like a sphere. Around the waterfall, hundreds of seats rotated slowly, and occasionally, several of the seating booths would be transformed into gambling tables. Beautiful gambling staff would smile as they dealt cards to the visitors.

There were always gazes locked on Wu Jins face.

Wu Jin touched his earlobe.

Researcher Song was talking to them remotely.

Augustine Castle is divided into three zones: upper, middle, and lower. You are now in the lower zone. According to convention, if the visitors spending hits 100,000 or over, the attendants will lead you to the middle zone. If you continue to spend money, you can obtain a ticket to the upper zone.

The d.u.c.h.esss reagent contact is in the upper part of the castle. Remember, they only accept one kind of guest. Those who have money and know how to play.

Bodyguard Wei s.h.i.+ did his duty and obtained a gla.s.s of red wine for Wu Jin.

Wu Jin leaned back lazily in the booth and undid three b.u.t.tons on his s.h.i.+rt. At first glance, it was clear that he was very accustomed to such indulgence and play. Such a beauty was very eye-catching in Augustine Castle, but Wei s.h.i.+ guarded him too closely for anyone to approach.

Not only did the bodyguard help his little master remove his cloak, he also wiped the nonexistent red wine stains from the corner of his little masters mouth with a brand-new white handkerchief. He even wiped the fingers that the leopard cat had rubbed up against.

Wu Jin: Youre playing with me like Im a toy!

Wei s.h.i.+ was expressionless as he touched Wu Jin, played with Wu Jin, touched Wu Jin again, played with Wu Jin again, very much enjoying himself.

In a dead corner of the surveillance, he whispered to Wu Jin, Remember, Im your bodyguard.

You can ask me to do anything. The mans eyes were heavy and didnt seem to absorb the light, but his tone was very interested when he spoke, scaring Wu Jins curls into a tumbled mess.

A few minutes later, Wu Jin sat down in front of a gambling table, ordered thousands of credits worth of chips and requested an AI gambling partner. He won half the games and lost the rest, casually tossing away tens of thousands of credits.

The managements eyes lit up.

The youth looked lazy and languid. His bodyguard tried to persuade him to stop, but was only given an unhappy look in return. The n.o.ble youth was clearly arrogant and spoiled, and the handsome bodyguard could only take away his champagne and replace it with a gla.s.s of water.

Wu Jin drank it unhappily and then tossed the cup away.

Bodyguard Wei s.h.i.+ caught it loyally, and in a place where his master couldnt see, he drank from the same spot on the gla.s.s and continued to look at his young master with a burning gaze.

Wu Jin indulged the leopard cat, allowing it to run around as it liked, while the bodyguard indulged his young master.

The management was suddenly interested, their eyes s.h.i.+fting between the two men. However, as the size of the bets rose up exponentially, two executive management staff soon came along.

Sir. They handed an invitation to the middle zone to Wu Jin, Playing cards with an AI isnt very interesting. Wed like to invite you to come with us.

Wu Jin harrumphed.

Wei s.h.i.+ followed them. When they pa.s.sed through the water curtain, he placed the cloak around Wu Jins shoulders and snuck in a grope.

Wu Jin: !!! Wait a minute, didnt you say that I was the master?!

The ornate elevator slowly ascended to the middle zone. The steward was attentive as he led the way, but hesitated a little before entering. He looked at Wei s.h.i.+

Wu Jin raised his eyebrows.

The amber eyes that were known to be the most in line with Imperial aristocratic taste were chilly, and there was a cold, proud light behind the monocle gla.s.s. The steward explained quickly, Please rest a.s.sured regarding the security here. However, only invitees and their female or male partners can enter

Wu Jin turned his head.

The hand covered in leather gloves hooked around his bodyguard. Wei s.h.i.+ paused, then moved reluctantly as though forced to do so by his young master.

Wu Jins inner thoughts were about to collapse, Werent you the one who was acting out the play bodyguard secretly loves his young master, but the situation was impossible?! Why was it changing now!

The man was half a head higher than the youth. He bowed down slightlyWu Jin raised his eyelids and reached out condescendingly, grabbing his bodyguards neck and forcing him to lower his face further.

Wu Jin was expressionless as he dove straight in and pried open Wei s.h.i.+s warm lips before pus.h.i.+ng him away.

What about now?

The steward looked stunned, Ye-yes Sorry, Im very sorry about just now

As a lover, Wei s.h.i.+ had the qualifications to enter.

The two of them walked slowly into the middle zone hall.

Wu Jin was suddenly excited: Holy s.h.i.+t, the play just now was fun!

When he looked back, the big bosss gaze was like a sharp blade, the light in his eyes heavy, as though he wanted to gouge out his core and swallow it down.

Wu Jin s.h.i.+fted his gaze away with a swish, as innocent and well behaved as ever.

Wei s.h.i.+ walked shoulder to shoulder beside the youth, helping him remove his leather gloves. There was a rustling sound, and a piece of test paper was pasted onto the palm of Wu Jins hand before being peeled off.

Almost there.

From behind Wu Jin, the big bosss aura was chilly.

The castles middle zone was different from the lower zone, but the furniture and decoration wasnt yet luxurious to extreme levels. There were fewer guests here, but the income that it brought to Castle Augustine was far higher than that from the lower zone.

Wu Jin pa.s.sed by the gambling table, and his gaze wandered around the area.

Several young women were enjoying afternoon tea in the garden patio, while two other ladies whispered to each other in front of the piano. The piano was being played by a finely dressed gentleman, and the castle layout was very intricate. According to the map, there was even an indoor racecourse, and it was said that there was a small auction held every night where anything that one could think of was put up for sale.

Wu Jin, whod always abided by the law, immediately showed a disapproving expression.

In any case, access to the upper zone could only be gained through the middle zone of the castle.

The n.o.bles whod come for vacation and had nothing else to do had turned this private castle into a hotbed of rumors. They discussed new guests, old acquaintances, the present state of affairs, and news from the past few months.

Wu Jin let the little leopard cat out of his arms, Go ahead.

The leopard cat swung its tail and stalked away through the crowd. From the other side of the headset, Researcher Song sent a signal to indicate that he had started tracking the mic that was installed on the cat.

No matter who the supplier for the original reagent is, their sphere of influence must include Augustine Castle. On the other end of the headset, Researcher Song began to speak again, Their technology for genetic modification is even more mature than that of the Imperial laboratories.

We even have reason to speculate that the so-called R-Code Base was a trial run that they attempted to sell to the Imperial research inst.i.tutes. They might have failed, and then sold it to the Federation through the d.u.c.h.esss contacts.

However, they arent very powerful.

To the point where theyre afraid of the d.u.c.h.ess and have hidden here instead.

Well act tomorrow, when the reagents are being traded.

Wu Jin nodded.

He suddenly looked up at the castle dome.

Wei s.h.i.+: What are you thinking.

Wu Jin didnt answer.

The ability of a scabbard to sense certain things was stronger than that of the sharp swords. He could sense something above them, at the very top of the castle, but the feeling was vague and imprecise.

Wei s.h.i.+ nodded and pulled out their room card. Go back and rest.

The leopard cat meowed twice and indicated that it wanted to continue playing.

Wu Jin waved to the leopard cat and walked along the winding pathways towards their suite, opening the door when they arrived.

As his bodyguard, Wei s.h.i.+ went inside with him.

The door clicked shut.

Wu Jin, whod been in disguise all day, was just about to toss himself onto the big, soft bed, but was taken by surprise when he was picked up by the big boss

Wei s.h.i.+ pushed a knee in front of Wu Jin to keep him in place, and his rough fingertips with gun calluses slowly undid Wu Jins cape b.u.t.tons.

After camouflage, the mans eyebrows were a little more flat, and his pupils seemed to be burning with fire.

Wu Jin pushed back against the bed, The bodyguard role play wasnt over yet!

Wei s.h.i.+ approached, his dark pupils locked on Wu Jin.

The atmosphere was quiet yet heated.

Wu Jin suddenly stretched out his head and leaned close. There was no warning, yet it seemed as though everything was as expected as they suddenly exchanged a shallow kiss.

Wu Jin called out, Brother Wei

Wei s.h.i.+ suddenly held his shoulder, the dark bodyguard uniform outlining his body and long legs. The man slowly undid his jacket, shrouding Wu Jin completely in his shadow. The air seemed to be quenched by fire, and Wu Jin began to toss and turn on the mattress, Ahh, dont crush me, if Im flattened, then

Then, he was caught off guard and pressed up against the white wall.

The monocle fell off under the impact. Without the cover of the thin, golden wire frame, the young, soft face seemed coated with a layer of slight dampness. Even though he was camouflaged, he was still a little white rabbit beneath it all. Wei s.h.i.+ easily pressed him up against the wall with one hand, and no matter how Wu Jin flailed, he couldnt escape from the palm of his hand.

The cold, hard bodyguard finally forced his young master to the bottom line.

The n.o.ble youth was overwhelmed, his neck beautiful and fragile. It seemed that he would be left bitten and bleeding at any moment, and at this time, his honor and dignity were waiting to be profaned. Wei s.h.i.+ couldnt help crowding him into the corner, and the gun callused fingers headed towards the danger zone

Wu Jins breathing accelerated, and he even reached out subconsciously to hold onto Wei s.h.i.+ as though holding onto a piece of driftwood in a torrent.

Wei s.h.i.+s expression darkened.

The rabbit spirit sitting on the tree stump, the Wu Jin who held up the heavy machine gun, the Wu Jin who sat on the back of the Pterosaur, and the Wu Jin at the top of the Ferris Wheel finally merged into the one currently in front of him.

There was a rustle.

Wu Jin very consciously took out the test paper from his pocket and pasted it onto his forehead.

Two levels away from purple.

Wei s.h.i.+:

Wu Jin was very obedient, You said that I should stick the test paper on before going to bed every night. Todays punch-in (1/1).

Wu Jin peeled the test paper off and pasted it onto the big bosss face, Its black! Brother Wei, your Little Witch content isnt high enough. Researcher Song said that youre on the fifth course of treatment. Whatll we do for the sixth course? As a scabbard, how should I be of use? Keeping the emotional lock is a disaster waiting to happen; not only yours, but also Brother Wei Yan and Reds elder brother. Fortunately, weve found some clues

At this time, both their terminals rang out with the emergency communication tone.

On the other end of the communicator, Researcher Song spoke up in a hurry, The plan has changed, and the reagent exchange has been moved forward to today. Brother Wei, take Little Witch to the upper zone now.

Juurensha: Hahaha, the ultimate bodyguard/young master roleplay

xiin: little witch content hahaha, Little Witch, youre too naive~
