Interstellar Marriage Guide

Chapter 48.1 - New Promise

After Mo Han washed his face, he received a message from Luo Fei: “Are you up? I’ll take you to breakfast.”

The weekends are the best days to sleep in, but Mo Han is used to having a regular schedule and never sleeps in even on weekends. He hesitated for a moment before replying back: “Okay, see you downstairs in ten minutes.”

When Mo Han came downstairs, he saw Luo Fei waiting in military uniform with a bright and warm smile on his face, just like in the dream.

Thinking of the kiss in the dream, Mo Han’s ears felt slightly hot. He immediately looked away and asked, “You woke up so early?”

“I’m used to getting up early.” Luo Fei said with concern, “Did you sleep well last night? Are you used to the conditions in the school hotel?”

“It’s okay.” In fact, he didn’t sleep well last night due to the messy dream, and was awakened by Luo Fei’s kiss earlier. However, he was too embarrassed to tell the other party about his dreams, so he feigned nonchalance, and said lightly: “Let’s go have breakfast.”

Luo Fei nodded with a smile, and led Mo Han towards the cafeteria.

When passing by the playground, Mo Han saw a group of students running around the playground at a very neat and regular pace.

The atmosphere of the military academy is very different from Hermann University. Mo Han can really feel the rigor and discipline sprinkled throughout. When eating in the cafeteria, everyone lined up neatly. No one jumped in line, there were no loud voices. The entire cafeteria was very quiet, and those talking would lower their voices deliberately.

Luo Fei led Mo Han around the breakfast buffet area, and said in a soft voice, “You can take whatever you like. Swipe my card.”

The warm breath tickled his ears, causing Mo Han’s heart to skip a beat. He quietly took a step away to keep some distance, and walked towards the bakery area to get some nice-looking pastries, and a cup of hot milk.

Luo Fei also came over with his breakfast, and the two sat down by the window.

Mo Han tasted the pastries and commented: “The food is delicious.”

Luo Fei smiled and said: “The taste is indeed good, but there’s less variety than the Hermann University.”

When he pretended to be a graduate of Hermann University, he asked Chongming to do a thorough check, so he naturally learned about the cafeteria situation as well.

Remembering how he pretended to be a student of the Department of Agricultural Sciences, Mo Han couldn’t help teasing him: “You told me at the time that the new dessert shop opened on the second floor of the dining hall is very good. Have you tried it yet?”

Hearing his previous antics brought up, Luo Fei touched his nose in embarrassment. “It’s all information obtained by Chongming. I haven’t eaten at the dining hall of Hermann University.”

Seeing his embarrassment, Mo Han chuckled lightly and said, “Come to our school when you have a chance in the future, I’ll take you to try it.”

Slightly taken aback, Luo Fei looked at Mo Han in surprise.

He didn’t expect Mo Han would take the initiative to invite him to visit. It seems that instead of hating him, Mo Han should be a little fond of him?

Luo Fei’s eyes brightened with excitement: “Can I really visit you?”

Facing those sparkling eyes, Mo Han’s heart softened inexplicably, and he couldn’t help nodding. “If you have time… of course.”

Luo Fei’s eyes immediately curved as he smiled. “As long as I can see you, I can find time anytime.”

This sentence made Mo Han’s heart jump again, and he suddenly found that every time Luo Fei looked at him with such straightforward sincerity and enthusiasm, he couldn’t bear to refuse.

Perhaps, he has already fallen unconsciously. After all, Luo Fei is not like those who pursued him in the past, who took a fancy to the power of the Mo family and approached him with various purposes. Luo Fei doesn’t care about his status as heir nor that he was an alpha. Those feelings were as pure as spring water without any impurities.

It was the purest and warmest emotion of a young man falling in love for the first time..

It’s normal to be moved by such a person, right?

Mo Han’s head and face hurt just thinking about it.

Not long ago, he said very confidently that he would never be tempted. This slap in the face was too unexpected.

Mo Han didn’t say any more, and lowered his head to eat. Luo Fei didn’t bother him either, so breakfast ended rather quickly. After cleaning up the plates, they left the cafeteria.

At the entrance of the cafeteria, Mo Han suddenly saw a tall boy walking towards him. The reason why he noticed him was because this boy was very handsome, and there was a hint of maturity and stability in his handsomeness.

To Mo Han’s surprise, after seeing the two of them, he actually walked towards them and said hello, “Good morning, Luo Fei.”

Luo Fei smiled and said, “Morning senior.”

——This person is the senior Luo Fei met on the basketball court before: Xiao Weiming.

Xiao Weiming patted Luo Fei’s shoulder affectionately, and asked, “Are you free this morning? Want to play a game?”

Luo Fei said, “I’ll let you know later.”

Xiao Weiming glanced at Mo Han, and asked in doubt: “This is?”

Luo Fei introduced: “He’s my friend. He came here yesterday for business and stayed in the school hotel. I brought him for breakfast.”

“Ah, no wonder.” Xiao Weiming smiled. “You should take your friend to walk around the school first, and I’ll go to eat. If you want to play, let me know within the hour.”

Luo Fei nodded: “Okay, see you later senior.”

After sending Xiao Weiming away, Luo Fei took the initiative to explain: “Xiao Weiming is a third-year senior, and also the president of our school’s basketball club. I met him while playing in the gym and joined the basketball club on his recommendation.”

“Oh.” Mo Han hummed indifferently. 

He has no interest in this senior, but was a little surprised to learn Luo Fei played basketball.

After leaving the cafeteria, Luo Fei said, “Do you want to walk around the school? Is there anything you want to buy?”

Mo Han shook his head: “No need, I went shopping earlier. Didn’t your senior invite you to play basketball? You should go play.”

Luo Fei said: “If I go to play, what are you doing? Why don’t you try it too?”

“I don’t know how to play basketball.” Mo Han said indifferently. “You go play, I’ll watch from the side. In fact, I’m a little curious about the level of your school’s basketball club.”

With Mo Han willing to watch from the side, Luo Fei no longer struggled, and went back to the dormitory and changed his clothes. The military uniform was replaced with exercise clothes. The black shirt was tucked into the waistband of his trousers, showing off his perfect figure – broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs.

Driven by curiosity, Mo Han followed Luo Fei to the basketball court.

Xiao Weiming had already contacted his classmates. With Luo Fei they totalled eleven people, five on each team, and the remaining player was the referee.

Mo Han sat by the side and watched. Although he doesn’t know how to play, he still knows the basic rules. Luo Fei’s position should be small forward, focusing on dribbling the ball to score.

Luo Fei’s technique was unexpectedly powerful. Under the siege of the opponent, he was able to dodge and dribble, and his shooting movements were particularly chic and neat.

The handsome young man running on the court was dazzling. A layer of sweat soon appeared on his body, and under the illumination of the roof lights, there was almost a soft luster surrounding him. This kind of Luo Fei, full of youthful blood and vitality, was very different from the innocent appearance when he confessed.

Mo Han’s previous understanding of Luo Fei was too one-sided. He assumed that because he was raised under the protection of His Majesty, that he was a naive, innocent little puppy. But as he got to know more about Luo Fei, he found that Luo Fei really has many advantages, such as a comprehensive grasp of firearms and fighting knowledge, decisive and straightforward handling of things, and is especially reliable at critical moments. Now, seeing Luo Fei sweating on the court, with superb skills, and his powerful shots, it was impossible for Mo Han to take his eyes off him.

Luo Fei and Xiao Weiming went up against each other again as they chased after each other. The score was deadlocked, and at the end of the first quarter, the score was evenly divided again.

With the last ten seconds left on the timing board, Luo Fei sprinted with the ball, and Xiao Weiming and his teammates quickly returned to defend.

Luo Fei glanced at the opponent’s three-person defense. He stepped into a neutral position, turned around neatly and threw off the person on the left first, and then quickly moved to the right with the ball. He wanted to make a feint, but Xiao Weiming guessed his intentions and didn’t loosen his defense.

Another opposing player came up to double-team him from the right side. Luo Fei turned sideways and wanted to pass the ball to his teammate, but was accidentally hit by the opponent’s shoulder.

He was just about to pass the ball, but his center of gravity was unstable. Hit by such a large bump, he fell to the ground with a “bang”.

When Mo Han heard the sound of his body falling firmly to the ground, his heart seemed to be tightly squeezed. He immediately stood up from his seat, wanting to see if Luo Fei was injured from the fall, but before he had time to walk to the court, he saw the senior named Xiao Weiming stretching out his hand with a smile, and said to Luo Fei, “Are you all right?”

Luo Fei reached out, and Xiao Weiming pulled him up, then asked with concern: “Are you injured?”

The person who bumped into Luo Fei was even more guilty: “I’m sorry, I was too impatient just now, and made a foul.”

“It’s okay.” Luo Fei patted his clothes lightly, and said with a cheerful smile, “It’s normal for such things to happen when playing. Don’t worry about it.”

Since the opponent fouled, the referee let him have a free throw.

Standing on the shooting line, Luo Fei took the basketball handed by the referee and patted it lightly. Then, he raised his head and aimed at the basket, tiptoed slightly, stretched out his long arms, and tossed the ball out. It arced neatly and fell into the basket with a “swoosh” – the ball was shot so accurately that it didn’t even touch the grid on the edge of the basket and fell into the net.

There was warm applause from the students watching the match, and his teammates also came to pat Luo Fei on the shoulder to show encouragement.

With a smile on his face, Luo Fei returned to the resting bench, picked up a towel and wiped off his sweat.
