I Have A Dual World Seal

Chapter 270: Die Without Regrets



Departing at midnight, we flew for nearly twelve hours, and it was only six in the morning when we transferred at Frankfurt.

After waiting for five hours, we finally boarded the flight to Rome.

However, this time they were not traveling with that middle-aged woman; they were preparing to transfer to a direct flight to Milan.

...

"Mr. Lu! Miss Lin!"

Outside the airport, Tony approached with a big smile and gave Lu Zheng a hearty hug.

"Thanks for the hospitality!" Lu Zheng's sensitive nose twitched repeatedly, then he decisively held his breath, feeling a bit more comfortable that way.

"I didn't expect you to actually come to Rome." Lu Zheng said.

"You're my lifesaver, how could I just sit at home and wait for you to come?" Tony laughed heartily and took a step back. "I booked a hotel. Do you want to take a nap first? After all, a twenty-hour flight is no easy feat."

"When in Rome." Lu Zheng glanced at the four men in black suits following Tony, then looked at the passersby walking around them, "But we booked first class, so we're not fatigued."

Tony understood Lu Zheng's glance but shrugged, saying with a bitter smile, "For companies like ours with certain black connections, this setup is basically standard, and such setups are common. It's just that travelers from various places definitely aren't used to it."

Common?

Lu Zheng and Lin Wan exchanged a glance. Although it's common for rich people to have bodyguards, isn't this a bit too common?

Indeed, Europe and America are different from home...

Fortunately, these four bodyguards were all about presence and didn't carry guns under their clothes; otherwise, Lu Zheng would really have to question how much of what Tony said was true or false at the time.

Additionally, Lu Zheng already saw a few fellow countrymen looking at him with eyes filled with amazement and admiration, all ready to pull out their phones.

"Alright, let's go." Lu Zheng said helplessly.

He didn't want he and Lin Wan's images to appear on short video platforms, with titles like "Mafia boss reviewing his underlings."

"This way, please!" Tony smiled, and then two men in black stepped forward to block the onlookers' sight.

The other two men in black stepped forward to take the luggage from Lu Zheng and Lin Wan's hands, and then they all came to the side of a stretch Maserati by the roadside.

Tony's butler, Anthony, was already waiting by the car and, seeing them approach, turned to open the car door and bowed, extending his hand, "Please!"

"Truly extravagant!"

Lu Zheng got into the car and patted the redwood handrail beside the leather seat.

"This is the hotel's car." Tony said with a smile.

"May I offer you something to drink?" Anthony had already opened the car's liquor cabinet, looking at Lu Zheng and Lin Wan.

Tony turned around and said, "These are all standard in the hotel. When we return to Sicily tomorrow, I'll let you taste my private brew."

"Anything is fine, we don't really understand this." Lu Zheng said to Anthony.

So Anthony poured low-alcohol champagne for Lu Zheng and Lin Wan, as he remembered that during a barbecue in Hai City, they drank low-alcohol fruit beer.

Lu Zheng gave Anthony a glance and nodded inwardly, thinking that he truly was a professional butler, much more so than Uncle Li.

...

Arriving at the hotel, after putting down their luggage, they went to the hotel's restaurant for a meal.

"Lu, how have you planned your itinerary for the next few days?" Tony asked, "Do you have plans to visit other countries?"

Previously on the phone, Lu Zheng only told Tony about their flight and mentioned staying at Tony's private island for two days, not detailing any other plans.

Because...

Lu Zheng shook his head and said, "No plans, just going with the flow, if it's comfortable, we'll stay a few more days, if not, we'll change places, after all, there are many flights in Europe, so it's convenient."

Lu Zheng and Lin Wan were on a free trip, playing it as it comes; if they really wanted to continue, they could just come back during the Spring Festival holiday.

Hearing Lu Zheng's words, Tony showed a reserved smile, "Then you might end up spending a full seven days on my private island."

"Is it that interesting?"

Tony raised his eyebrows, looking quite proud, "My private island is located in the Tyrrhenian Sea, to the northwest of Sicily, about a hundred nautical miles from the main island.

On the island, there's a retro castle and a manor, with all the modern facilities you can think of, besides a tennis court and a golf course, there's also a racecourse, and a shooting range on the island.

Additionally, you can go diving, take a yacht out, if you want to gamble a bit, there's a helicopter on the island that can fly you to a cruise ship cruising in the Mediterranean at any time."

Lu Zheng, "..."

Lin Wan, "..."

"You rich people really know how to have fun." Lu Zheng said dryly.

He could already pretend to be an immortal in modern times, feeling he knew how to enjoy life well enough; never thought about getting himself a setup like this.

In his view, living in a big flat, driving a luxury car, eating whatever he wants, going wherever he wants to play, life would already be complete.

So indeed, poverty limits human imagination...

Lu Zheng admitted there were still many things he needed to learn.

Tony gave a slight smile, "So even if one were to live on the island for a lifetime, they wouldn't necessarily feel bored. If I had to choose a place for my burial, I would also choose my private island."

...

After lunch, Tony took Lu Zheng and Lin Wan by car to the famous Pantheon and Ancient Roman Arena in Rome.

Next to Rome is the Vatican.

Tony asked if Lu Zheng wanted to go for a visit, but Lu Zheng had no such interest, so they did not visit this famous city-state.

...

The next morning, everyone arrived at the pier in the western suburbs of Rome and boarded Tony's private yacht, setting out to sea.

Then, Lu Zheng and Lin Wan witnessed what truly luxurious private yachts were.

Compared to Tony's luxury yacht, all the so-called luxury yachts in movies were simply commoners' versions.

Sixty-six meters long, equipped with five suites, the yacht was also outfitted with a cinema, a swimming pool, a gym, a billiard room, a spa center, a massage room, and more.

Lu Zheng inquired about the price, and the answer he got was two hundred million US dollars.

The yacht was just an appetizer. When they arrived at Tony's private island, he enthusiastically took Lu Zheng and Lin Wan to tour his castle and his private manor.

Horse riding, shooting, diving, surfing...

For two whole days, Tony was very hospitable, and Lu Zheng and Lin Wan had a great time.

Moreover, the service staff on the island were so enthusiastic their smiles felt somewhat fake to Lu Zheng, but thinking it might be due to their boss, he didn't mind it.

...

"Thanks for the hospitality, send us back to Rome tomorrow." Lu Zheng said.

"Oh?" Tony looked up, "You're leaving tomorrow?"

Lu Zheng nodded, "We've experienced what we needed to, and played enough, it's time to go."

At this moment, Lu Zheng and Lin Wan were sitting side by side, with Tony across a five-meter-long table decorated with flowers and candle holders, giving a formal atmosphere.

Besides the waitstaff, eight men in black stood guard around the dining area, expressionless.

It had been this way for two days, and Lu Zheng and Lin Wan were used to it.

Tony smiled, "I thought you might stay a few more days."

Lin Wan replied, "My vacation is limited after all. I also want to visit Milan and go see a game at San Siro."

Tony nodded, picked up the napkin beside him, wiped his mouth, and gestured for the waiters to leave the dining room.

"Lu, you saved my life." Tony began.

"You're being too polite; you've thanked me many times already." Lu Zheng waved it off, not taking it to heart.

"That's why I brought you here to enjoy a service you would otherwise never experience." Tony said, "As a repayment for saving my life."

"Hmm?" Lu Zheng's eyes flickered, placing down his knife and fork.

The words didn't sound right, Lin Wan couldn't help frowning and subconsciously looked at the eight bodyguards around them, but found they made no move.

Could it just be a sense of superiority?

"I originally intended for you to enjoy a full five days, but since you decided to leave, it means you have had enough." Tony put down his napkin and naturally said, "So, you should be able to die without regrets, right?"
