Chapter 47.1 - Liking

Good news, IMG readers! With SABL coming to a close, I can finally dedicate more time to translating this piece.

No set schedule as I build up releases and wrap up SABL, but aiming for 1x weekly (or more) by May.

Mo Han was restless after entering the hotel room. After showering and changing into pajamas, he was wondering whether he should talk to his father when the doorbell rang.

When he opened the door, there were two young soldiers standing at the door. They nodded politely to him and said, “Hello, are you Mo Han? Major General Ling An wants to see you.”

“…” Mo Han’s back stiffened suddenly. He took a deep breath to stabilize his mind, pretending to be calm and said: “Wait a minute, I’ll change my clothes.”

After closing the door and returning to the room, he immediately sent a video call to his father: “General Ling An wants to see me, does my dad really not know this person? I always feel that he seems to know something.”

Mo Qiming frowned and said, “I don’t know. You should calm down first. Him wanting to see you is not necessarily because he knows the secret between you and Mo Lin, but probably because of Luo Fei. Major General Ling An is Luo Fei’s uncle. Maybe he just wants to get in touch with you and understand what kind of person you are.”

Mo Han breathed a sigh of relief. “Then should I go see him?”

“If you don’t want to go, you can pretend to be sick.” Mo Qiming said.

Mo Han thought about it carefully, and said, “I’d better go and meet him. I met him in the corridor just now, and I can’t hide by pretending to be sick. Besides, he might be more suspicious if I pretend to be sick.”

Mo Qiming said softly, “Don’t be afraid, with your dad around, he won’t do anything to you.”

Mo Han nodded, turned off the communicator, quickly took off his pajamas and changed into a clean shirt and trousers, and then followed the two soldiers to room 1701.

The layout of this room is the same as that of Mo Han’s room, with only a simple bed, wardrobe, and sofa. The color of the furniture is the same dark blue as the military uniforms of the students of St. Romia Military Academy, and the walls were all painted white. There are no decorations on the wall, and the simple pairing of white and blue revealed a trace of military rigor.

Ling An’s military coat hung in the closet, and he had taken off his boots and changed into a pair of slippers. Wearing a white shirt and slacks, he was sitting on the sofa drinking tea with a gentle smile on his face. Without the military uniform off, his facial features seemed to have softened a lot, but his eyes still maintained the sharpness of a soldier who had survived the battlefield, seemingly able to read people’s hearts instantly.

Mo Han bit the bullet, and politely greeted, “The general is looking for me, what’s the matter?”

Ling An put down the teacup, looked Mo Han carefully from head to toe, and then asked with a smile, “Is your father okay?”

Mo Han was startled, and said: “My father is in good health, but the Fengyang Group has been very busy.”

Ling An looked into Mo Han’s eyes with a smile, and said word by word: “I’m not asking about your father, I’m asking about your omega father, Fang Ziqian. Is he okay?”

Mo Han: “……………………”

As if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, Mo Han’s whole body was instantly icy cold.

Fang Ziqian died in the kidnapping case that year, and his ashes have been buried in Lyra Cemetery.

The general in front of him actually smiled and asked if a “dead man” was okay. What did he mean?

Seeing that Mo Han didn’t answer, Ling An stood up and walked in front of Mo Han with a smile. “Your father Fang Ziqian is not dead at all. The urn buried in the Lyra Cemetery is empty. Your father is a genius hacker, and he taught you a lot of your coding knowledge. He was able to escape at the wedding because he hacked Lyra’s information database, so that his information could not be found at all. Am I right?”

Mo Han clenched his fists nervously, his face pale. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, general.”

The corners of Ling An’s lips rose and he continued, “Don’t be afraid, I won’t interfere with your Mo family’s affairs, and I don’t care about your father’s whereabouts. I just want to remind you that Luo Fei is His Majesty’s most precious eldest son. I don’t want him to have any accidents. If you encounter danger in the future, given Luo Fei’s personality, he will definitely not consider his status as the First Prince and help you without hesitation. When the time comes, I hope you will also be honest with him and not let him down.”

Ling An spoke from the standpoint of an elder, and his tone was very gentle.

After finishing speaking, he also took out his communicator and gave Mo Han a passcode, saying: “The military’s communication procedures are strict, and you may not be able to find me through usual channels. But with this passcode, if you and Luo Fei encounter any difficulties that cannot be solved in the future, you can ask me for help at any time, and even ask the Glory Legion behind me for help.”

Mo Han was flattered: “Thank you, General.”

Ling An looked at Mo Han with a smile, patted Mo Han’s shoulder lightly, and said, “Luo Fei can be regarded as a kid I watched grow up. He likes you very much, and has the courage to want to be with you. I will support him in this matter, and can speak for you with His Majesty and the Queen.”

Feeling flustered, Mo Han looked away slightly. “The general must be joking, I have no intention of being with Luo Fei. We are not suitable at all.”

 “Oh?” Ling An frowned lightly. “So, you don’t like Luo Fei at all?”

Mo Han was silent for a moment, and then replied: “That’s right.”

Ling An smiled and said, “You hesitated when answering my question, which means that you are not 100% sure, right?”

Mo Han: “…”

Ling An turned around and sat back on the sofa. Studying the young man in front of him, he said softly: “Mo Han, there is no need to overthink things. Keep it simple, follow your heart, and then work with Luo Fei to face any difficulties. Maybe this way, your life will be a lot easier. Luo Fei is a simple person, but he is absolutely reliable. You can think carefully about my suggestion.”

Major General Ling An’s eyes are indeed sharp. In front of him, Mo Han felt like he could hide nothing nor could he lie.

Even the moment of hesitation just now was accurately captured and analysed, tearing apart his response that he has no feelings for Luo Fei…

Worried that he would not be able to hide his secret about being an omega if they continued talking, Mo Han immediately took a deep breath, looked at Ling An, and said, “Thank you, General, for your advice. If there is nothing else, I will go back first. I just went hiking today and am a little tired.”

Ling An nodded: “Go. Rest early.”

***

After returning to his room, the more Mo Han thought about it, the more disturbed he became.

Ling An revealed his knowledge of his omega father not being dead, and being a hacker, so he must know some secrets. But he didn’t use this as an excuse to threaten Mo Han to do something. He just stood on the standpoint of an elder and advised him gently, hoping he would treat Luo Fei honestly and sincerely.

He should be in support of their relationship?

——Follow your heart, maybe life will be much easier

For some reason, these words suddenly echoed in his ears.

Heart? How do I feel about Luo Fei?

Mo Han couldn’t help thinking back to when they climbed the mountain today. The moment he fell from the mountain road, Luo Fei stretched out his arms to catch him without hesitation, and carefully protected him as they rolled down. He didn’t get hurt at all, but the gravel and branches left many scars on Luo Fei’s forehead and arms. He felt a little distressed, and worried if Luo Fei had treated the wound properly after returning.

Luo Fei won the bet today and could have made more demands, but he respected Mo Han’s wishes and did not raise excessive conditions, but simply hugged him.

Luo Fei’s respect, consideration, love for him, as well as sincerity, were clearly conveyed.

Before today, he could still confidently say – Luo Fei can do whatever he wants, I won’t be tempted by him anyway.

But now, Mo Han couldn’t say those words.

Even though this LN opened with Luo Fei’s perspective, its easier to think of Mo Han as the MC given so much of the LN is focused on him & his PoV
