Interstellar Marriage Guide

Chapter 45.2 - Competition Reward

The pounding heartbeat, mixed with rapid breathing, rang clearly in his ears.

Mo Han’s body went stiff as a rock.

Ever since he was a child, he has been able to remain calm. He has never felt so flustered – his head went blank and he didn’t know what to do.

He was lying in the arms of an alpha, and held tightly by the other party. Their bodies were stuck together without any gaps, and he could clearly feel the other party’s chest and powerful muscles pressed against him. The tips of their noses were almost touching, and such an ambiguous posture made Mo Han’s scalp tingle.

Luo Fei hugged Mo Han tightly, and asked softly, “Are you all right?”

“I’m okay.” Mo Han came back to his senses, and couldn’t help asking when he saw at the mud on Luo Fei’s face, “How about you? Are you injured?”

Luo Fei smiled: “I’m fine.”

As he spoke, he borrowed the power of the tree trunk and slowly stood up holding Mo Han.

Mo Han took a closer look, only to find that there was obvious bloodstain on Luo Fei’s forehead. Only then did he realize that during the process of rolling all the way down, Luo Fei had been protecting him with his body, and at the last moment he took the initiative to act as a meat pad for him, so that he didn’t feel the slightest pain.

——Someone is willing to protect him with his body?

Feeling complicated, Mo Han pulled Luo Fei to sit beside him, and carefully located the wound. “Your forehead is injured, it should be cut by a stone.”

Luo Fei smiled and waved his hands: “Don’t worry about it, this little injury will heal in two days.”

Mo Han frowned: “Don’t move, I’ll help you clean it.”

He took out a clean towel from his backpack, helped Luo Fei wipe the muddy streaks off his face, then quickly disinfected the wound and applied ointment. After treating the wound on his forehead, he also helped Luo Fei treat a few small wounds on his arm from the tumble.

Mo Han is obviously very skilled in treating wounds. Luo Fei stared intently, wishing he could hug Mo Han and kiss him hard.

Such a small injury is worthwhile in exchange for Mo Han taking care of him.

After treating all the wounds, Mo Han put away his supplies and said in a low voice, “Just now, thank you.”

If Luo Fei hadn’t protected him, he would be far more injured.

There are several wounds on his forehead brom the broken stones and his arms were cut by sharp branches. Although none of these are too deep, it should still be very painful.

Seeing that he was obviously injured but pretended it was nothing, Mo Han couldn’t help but feel a little pain in his heart. “How are you? Do you still want to continue summiting?”

Luo Fei stood up, looked up at the top of the mountain, and said, “It’s okay, I can continue. Since this section is so slippery, why don’t we tie the rope to the tree above and go up slowly while holding onto the rope.”

“You win.” Mo Han whispered.

“Huh?” Luo Fei was startled.

Mo Han said: “You won this competition. Your physical strength is indeed better than mine. I am a little tired, yet you don’t look like it.”

Luo Fei smiled: “Are you admitting defeat?”

“I just made an accurate judgment on my physical fitness. I am indeed inferior to professionally trained soldiers. There is no need to be brave and not admit defeat.” Mo Han shrugged. “Let’s walk together; there’s no need to risk our lives for the sake of competition.”

Luo Fei looked at Mo Han tenderly. This is indeed the Mo Han he likes, so decisive even when he admits defeat.

Mo Han’s ears felt warm from the gaze, so he looked away and said awkwardly: “What request do you have, just say it.”

“Can I ask for anything?” Luo Fei’s eyes lit up.

Mo Han bit the bullet and said, “I already admitted defeat.”

Luo Fei leaned close to his ear and said in a low voice, “Actually, I really want to kiss you.”

Mo Han: “…”

Heart beating violently, Mo Han was thinking how to refuse, when Luo Fei changed the subject in the next moment. “But I know that even if you agree, you’re still very unwilling in your heart. I don’t want to force you and want to respect your wishes, so I won’t make this request today.”

Mo Han was startled, he didn’t expect Luo Fei to say such a thing.

Indeed, as he said, if he rashly asks for a “kiss”, Mo Han will be very, very unwilling. However, Luo Fei’s respect for him and restraint from excessive demands, made Mo Han’s impression of him much better.

Luo Fei said softly: “Don’t worry, my request will definitely be within your acceptable range.”

He took out the rope from his backpack and tossed it vigorously. The sharp hook at the tip of the rope immediately and accurately hit a tall tree up high. He handed the other end of the rope to Mo Han and said, “Grab the rope, it’s safer. Let’s climb to the top of the mountain first.”

Heart warm, Mo Han nodded, grabbed the rope and started to move.

The two slowly climbed up one after the other, stopping and going, and finally reached the top of the mountain at around three o’clock in the afternoon.

The top of the mountain is a flat space of about ten square meters, surrounded by clouds and mist, like being adrift in clouds.

Golden light shines on the clouds of different shapes. Countless clouds gathered together, like a field of endless cotton wool, making people feel like they are in heaven.

Seeing the incomparably magnificent sea of clouds in front of him, Mo Han couldn’t help sighing. “The top of the mountain is really beautiful, no wonder so many mountaineering enthusiasts risk their lives to climb up.”

Luo Fei stood beside him with a smile. “Not only the scenery at the top, but also the excitement during the climbing process is also worth it.”

Thinking back to the process of summiting, there were indeed many things worth recalling. He looked back at Luo Fei and said, “You can make the request now, I will fulfill the bet.”

Luo Fei thought for a while and asked, “Can I give you a hug?”

Mo Han: “…”

Seeing that his face was stiff, Luo Fei said softly: “A hug as friends, to celebrate our successful climb to the top of the mountain.”

Mo Han was silent for a moment, then nodded calmly.

The next moment, Luo Fei stretched out his arms and gently hugged him into his arms.

It was really just a simple hug like a friend’s. His hug was very light and gentle. Being held in his arms, Mo Han only felt warm and comfortable, and he didn’t feel any disgust at all.

Surrounded by the sea of clouds rendered golden by the sun, Luo Fei and Mo Han hugged each other in the sea of clouds. On top of the steep mountain, there was still a sense of heroism in their hearts – standing at the highest point, overlooking everything, as if even the greatest difficulties can be conquered together.

Mo Han once thought that in the future, he would find a gentle and considerate wife, who supports his career and respects his father.

But now, Mo Han suddenly thought: If his other half was a powerful alpha like Luo Fei, the two of them can work together to overcome difficulties together. This feeling of standing side by side on the top of the mountain… is actually not bad.

Luo Fei smiled and put his chin on Mo Han’s shoulder. Although he really wanted to kiss him, Luo Fei knew that it was not the time yet.

He’s already very satisfied with a hug.

Most importantly, Mo Han did not reject it.

Mo Han didn’t push him away, so Luo Fei hugged him for a while longer. After a good five minutes later, Mo Han’s ears felt hot, and he whispered, “Have you hugged enough?”

Luo Fei smiled happily: “Although it’s not enough, it’s fine for now. If I hug you anymore, my heart will jump out.”

This guy spoke so bluntly that Mo Han couldn’t hate him.

The two looked at each other, and Mo Han looked away in embarrassment.

His heart was about to jump out.

As he got to know Luo Fei better, he became less and less able to hate him.

At first, he never thought he would be tempted, so he agreed to climb the mountain with Luo Fei. But after summiting, it turns out, his willpower was shaken. When they hugged each other just now, he was even thinking that it would be good to be with Luo Fei.

This kind of thinking is terrible and must be killed in the cradle as soon as possible.

Mo Han took a deep breath, trying to keep himself calm, however, the intense heartbeat in his ears betrayed him.

Luo Fei’s influence on him has reached a level that he cannot ignore.

What should he do?

He hasn’t fallen for Luo Fei, has he?!

Hehehe 🤗
