As the leader of the rebel army, Lance endured the tears and scars of countless invaders.

He never had a choice.

He could only continue to lurk next to the princess, waiting for an opportunity to disarm her mecha.

……

News of the raid on Heqin's starship reached Alpha Star. The old Duke expressed his condolences in the communication and specially sent a small team of envoys to the starship to greet the princess in advance.

Said he was a messenger.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that these muscular and evil-looking men are well-trained legionnaires.

Outside the door of the princess's room, the maids were pacing anxiously.

It wasn't until they saw Lance's figure approaching slowly that their eyes lit up.

"What's wrong?" Lance glanced at the closed door. The low-pressure atmosphere inside seemed to be coming out through the door.

The maid whispered: "The envoy is already waiting outside, but Her Highness the Princess has not gotten up yet. We reminded her just now that Her Highness lost her temper."

Lance nodded clearly: "I'll call her."

The maids breathed a sigh of relief.

The head guard is more resistant to scolding, so it doesn't matter if he gets scolded by the princess a few times.

Lance didn't sleep last night.

His mind flashed to Cha Jiu's lustful expression when she swallowed the wine, and then to her domineering and proactive way of kissing him.

But what's more, there are the homes and corpses charred by the fire, and the cries and shouts of countless people.

Passion and restlessness suddenly passed away.

Only endless sorrow remains.

He calmed down, regained his composure, and rang the communication button at the door.

The communicator beeped for ten seconds before being connected.

A voice that seemed to be awake, with a nasal tone and impatient voice said: "Get out."

Then the communication was hung up without mercy.

Lance was not discouraged and pressed a second time.

This time the people inside were even more irritable, "I told you to get out, don't you understand human speech?"

The maids held their breath and looked at Lance with sympathetic eyes.

Lance's expression remained unchanged and he said, "Your Highness, the envoy is already waiting outside. It's too late if we don't get up."

His voice was deep and sweet, like the low sound of some textured metal vibrating.

The other end of the communicator was silent for a few seconds, as if recognizing his voice.

"Carlos?"

"It's me, Your Highness."

After a long while, Cha Jiu said: "Come in."

The maids were surprised.

Lance's eyes softened slightly, then he waited for the sensor door to open and stepped in.

……

Chajiu was still lying on the soft silk goose down quilt, feeling sleepy.

When she heard the familiar footsteps of military boots approaching, she let out a lazy snort.

"Those idiots boarded the starship?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Lance came over, took the communication device out of Chajiu's hand, and put it back in its place. Then he covered her with a quilt to cover her exposed round shoulders.

"I really want to ask the Zerg to raid again and eat all those idiots." Chajiu finally sat up from the bed and looked sleepily at the glass of red juice held in Lance's hand.

"What is this? It looks disgusting." She was disgusted.

"Carrot juice." Lance put the juice on her bedside and explained, "Drinking it can relieve hangover headaches and make you feel better."

He probably guessed why Cha Jiu was so angry when he got up today.

One is the glass of whiskey last night. If someone who is not used to drinking suddenly drinks so much strong alcohol, he will definitely have a headache at night.

Furthermore, the envoy sent by the old Duke is obviously here to monitor the starship. He also wants the National People's Congress to come to receive him early in the morning. Who would be happy to replace him?

Before Chajiu woke up completely, he yawned and complained: "I'm not a rabbit, why should I drink carrot juice?"

Lance, in neat uniform, stood not far from the bed, looking at Cha Jiu who was sitting on the bed.

Her eye mask was pushed up to the top of her head, just enough to hold up two symmetrical and arched locks of hair, just like two rabbit ears.

Those ice-like eyes were covered with a layer of soft water mist with rough edges due to lack of sleep, and it was full of surprise to look at them. When she yawned slightly, tears shone at the end of her eyes, and her nose was dyed light pink, making her skin tone even whiter.

It's almost like a rabbit that has just transformed into a human form.

Although this rabbit can kill a high-level zerg with two cuts when it is awake.

Thinking of this, the faint smile in Lance's eyes floated, but soon dimmed.

Chajiu didn't notice his change. He was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the empty floor around him for shoes.

Lance walked over and picked up the pink plush slippers from the corner of the bed. Then he knelt down on one knee in front of Chajiu, took her delicate white ankle and put the shoes on.

Cha Jiu let him move, his expression thoughtful.

When he was about to stand up, she grabbed his tie and forced him to bend down in front of her.

"Why are you so active today?" She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Lance in front of her. "To be courteous for nothing...have you done something to betray me? Or are you planning to do it?"

Lance's heart trembled.

"Look at how nervous you are. I'm just teasing you."

Cha Jiu's expression suddenly changed from sharp to gentle, and she looked at him with a smile.

"How could I doubt you? You have been protecting my mother-in-law since I was ten years old, until she entrusted my safety to you before she died. Carlos, you are the person I trust most besides my mother-in-law. You will definitely not betray me, right?"

"...Of course." Lance felt very uncomfortable.

Chajiu patted his shoulder comfortingly, and then summoned someone to come in and change her clothes.

As for the glass of carrot juice, she didn't touch it.

Lance took a look, his eyes sad, and silently followed her departure.

……

The envoys sent by the old Duke actually included his second son Alan and his youngest daughter Jessica.

Allen has a handsome appearance, a slender figure, and dazzling short golden curly hair. Together with his gentlemanly demeanor and perfect smile, he simply overshadows all the men present.

When he nodded and smiled and kissed the back of Cha Jiu's hand, the maids around him almost lost their breath with love in their eyes.

"Oh my gosh, I thought the Lord Guard was already very handsome, but I didn't expect Lord Allen to be even better."

"The bodyguard is better, but for the looks... I choose Mr. Allen."

The maids were whispering to each other.

Lance has excellent hearing, so he naturally heard all these words.

But he didn't bother to take it to heart.

But when he saw Allen's lips touching the back of Cha Jiu's hand, even though they were separated by a layer of lace gloves, he felt it was an eyesore and had the urge to step forward and separate the two.
