To my readers & supporters: Thank you so much for being with me on this translation journey through BATCFO, RLDRFH, AAPCFO, ABV, and so on. Due to unforeseen personal circumstances I’ll be going on an indefinite hiatus.

If anyone wants to pick up this project, please reach out to Sev about it.

Mo Han said in the video message that he asked Luo Fei to hand over the mech to his father to find a way to save him. But if he takes action now, it might not be too late to find Mo Han – after all Mo Han is in a dangerous situation, and Luo Fei doesn’t know if those people will do anything to Mo Han.

Worried about Mo Han’s situation, Luo Fei decided to rescue him himself without much hesitation.

Luo Fei immediately asked Chongming to start the mech positioning program and find Mo Han’s location – a red dot soon appeared on the map on the screen, pointing to a cave deep in the Cologne Forest.

Luo Fei has also been to that cave, the terrain is narrow, and it’s easy to defend but difficult to attack. The front of the cave has a wide field of vision. Once Luo Fei enters, they will definitely see him and raise their vigilance against him. How to approach is the key. He asked Chongming to zoom in on the terrain near the cave, reconstruct the surrounding environment in 3D, and look for breakthroughs.

Soon, he discovered that the stone wall on the side of the cave was not thick, and could be directly blasted with an ion cannon. It happens to be in the blind spot of the cave entrance, so the opponent might not see him. He could attack forcefully with Chongming, but the premise is that Mo Han can’t be hurt.

Although he knows that Mo Han is there, Luo Fei is not sure about the specific situation. Mo Han’s safety has to be confirmed before he makes a move.

Luo Fei let Chongming land on the side of the cave without a sound, while he hid himself behind a big tree beside the stone wall. Chongming’s signal detection wave has the ability to penetrate obstacles, and quickly recreated the scene in the cave.

There are four tall men in the cave, all wearing hats and masks. Two of them are stationed at the entrance of the cave, and the other two are guarding Mo Han.

Mo Han was tied tightly with ropes, and his hands were tied behind his back, and he couldn’t move at all. Seeing him, Luo Fei’s heart throbbed violently. He wanted to burst into tears, wishing he could rush in immediately and chop those four bastards into pieces!

How dare they bully Mo Han like this, and even kidnap Mo Han under his nose?!

Luo Fei took a deep breath to maintain his calm, and tried to communicate with Mo Han’s mech, Noah. Since Noah and Mo Han are connected with the white mech, Luo Fei had Chongming use the white mech as a relay, and they were finally able to establish a connection with Noah.

Both Chongming and Noah are classified as the highest-end S-class intelligence, and their signals can be encrypted to prevent others from discovering them.

Luo Fei sent a message through Chongming: “I’m here to save you, Mo Han.”

In the cave, Mo Han was sitting in a corner unable to move. The moment he sensed Chongming’s signal, his eyes lit up undetectably, but his face remained calm. “Okay, I will cooperate with you.”

Luo Fei said in a low voice, “After five seconds, lie down behind the rock next to you.”

Mo Han nodded, feeling a little puzzled about the instructions.

However, just as the countdown ended, there was a deafening crackling sound — BOOM!

The side wall of the cave was actually blown up. In an instant, countless gravel pieces and dust rushed in. The interior of the cave was almost submerged by the gravel. The air was full of dust, and it was impossible to see anything. Since he was prepared, the large rock beside him acted as cover to prevent him from being hurt by the gravel or shockwave. But the four kidnappers were caught off guard and flew out several meters away. Their faces and bodies were full of scrapes and injuries from the blast.

In the chaos, Luo Fei’s deep and gentle voice sounded next to his ears: “Are you alright?”

Hearing his voice, Mo Han’s eyes felt slightly hot. He didn’t expect Luo Fei to rescue him so quickly. It was like he fell from the sky like a god, and he even blew up the cave without hesitation!

He cracked the code so quickly?!

Not only is Luo Fei very smart, but he is also quite calm at critical moments – his belief in him is not wrong.

Mo Han took a deep breath to calm down, and replied softly, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Luo Fei was not in a hurry to untie the rope on Mo Han’s body. He could tell at a glance that this rope is made of special material, and needs to be laser cut.

The four men who were blown away quickly got up, raised their pistols and aimed at Mo Han’s position. “Don’t move!”

The dust gradually cleared away, and they finally saw clearly that a handsome young man appeared beside Mo Han — he didn’t look older than twenty, but his eyes were as sharp as blades.

The young man with such sharp eyes was like an enraged wild wolf, ready to pounce on them and tear them apart.

They were terrified by the stare, and in the next moment, they heard him say coldly, “Who gave you the courage to kidnap Mo Han from under my nose?”

He is less than twenty years old, but when he said these cold words, his aura seemed to magnify in an instant.

Stunned, it took a moment for them to recover. Before they could, they saw him take out a miniature anesthesia gun, and fire four shots in a row. In just a few seconds, they were hit!

The four of them felt palpitations for a moment. The young man’s movements were so fast – if he really wanted to kill them, they would have died at that moment.

The effect of the new anesthesia gun was astonishing. Within five seconds, the kidnappers fell to the ground unconscious.

Then Luo Fei turned around and walked in front of Mo Han, and squatted down in distress. “How are you? Are you hurt?”

His voice was extremely gentle, completely different from the cold and sharp Luo Fei just now. Mo Han looked at his handsome face, heart trembling slightly, and shook his head. “I’m fine.”

Luo Fei stretched out his arms and gently hugged him horizontally.

Being hugged horizontally like a princess carry, with his body suspended in the air, made Mo Han feel a little awkward. But his whole body was tied up, and he couldn’t do anything. He could only let Luo Fei carry him out of the cave.

Mo Han’s body was covered with the dust from the explosion. Luo Fei hugged him distressedly. In order to prevent these people’s potential accomplices from finding them, Luo Fei didn’t dare stay in the cave longer, and immediately brought Mo Han into Chongming’s cockpit.

Chongming spread its wings and flew up to a height of 10,000 meters in an instant.

Seeing the blue sky and white clouds on the screen, knowing that Mo Han was out of danger, Luo Fei finally felt relieved. His heart rate was still elevated from worrying that if he made any mistake, Mo Han would suffer Seeing Mo Han safe and by his side, his heartbeat finally began to calm down.

Luo Fei took a deep breath, asked Chongming to cut through the rope on Mo Han’s body, and asked softly, “They didn’t hit you, did they?”

Mo Han calmly said: “No.”

With the help of Chongming, the rope was quickly untied, but there were clear binding marks on Mo Han’s wrist, and even some slight bruises. Holding him gently, he took out the first aid kit, icing the bruises for a while, and then applied ointment for reducing swelling and pain.

Seeing Luo Fei who was a mess from the cave explosion, Mo Han’s heart softened inexplicably.

After a while, Mo Han stretched out his hand, and gently rubbed the head hanging in front of him. “Thank you.”

Luo Fei was stunned.

Is Mo Han rubbing his head? Is he hallucinating?

Luo Fei raised his head in disbelief, but met Mo Han’s rarely gentle eyes. In an instant, his heart throbbed, and Luo Fei was so excited that he wanted to run a marathon. He hurriedly said, “What thanks? I should save you. If you’re in danger and all I do is sit and wait, how can I deserve to like you?”

Hearing his frank answer, Mo Han’s heart became softer. While removing a few small stones mixed in his hair with his fingers, he said calmly: “Let’s go back to the hotel first, I want to wash my hair and clean up. We can talk about things later.”

Luo Fei immediately nodded in agreement.

***

The two went back to the hotel room Mo Han was staying in, and Mo Han went to the bathroom.

After the explosion, his hair was full of dust, and there were a lot of small stones and debris. Even the initial rinse from the shower was black. Mo Han has never felt so embarrassed since growing up, but thinking of Luo Fei’s rescue, he felt warm again.

In the past, he always felt that Luo Fei was young and naive, but today he saw how reliable Luo Fei was at critical moments.

He stored the password in the model just in case. After all, he usually has bodyguards whenever he goes out. If something happens, his father will receive news immediately, but when he is with Luo Fei he doesn’t want them around him. Who knows if they’ll interrupt them, so if anything happens when he’s alone with Luo Fei, at least there’s a backup plan.

Unexpectedly, less than ten minutes after he was kidnapped, Luo Fei arrived and decisively blew up the cave to rescue him. This efficiency was comparable to the military special forces, and even caught Mo Han off guard.

Thinking of how Luo Fei blew up the cave and quickly dealt with the kidnappers just now, Mo Han couldn’t smile to himself.

After taking a shower, Mo Han put on a white bathrobe and came out of the bathroom.

“You should also take a shower, your hair is full of ashes.”

Luo Fei nodded, went into the bathroom and took a quick shower.

In the end, after showering, he realized that he didn’t have a change of clothes. He can’t continue to wear that dust-stained set of clothes, can he? Luo Fei knocked on the bathroom door, and said awkwardly, “Um…can you bring me a set of spare clothes?”

Mo Han quickly found a set of pajamas and handed them in. Luo Fei only opened the door, reached out to take the clothes and quickly closed the door.

A while later, he came out wearing Mo Han’s pajamas. Due to the difference in height – Luo Fei was ten centimeters taller than Mo Han – Mo Han’s clothes were obviously too small. The sleeves barely reached his wrists, the buttons could barely be closed, and his ankles were clearly exposed…

Seeing his appearance, Mo Han couldn’t help laughing out loud. Luo Fei like this is really cute.

Luo Fei didn’t feel awkward wearing Mo Han’s clothes, and said with a smile: “Your clothes are a little too small. After my clothes are washed and dried, I’ll change back into them.”

Mo Han beckoned to him: “Come and sit.”

Luo Fei immediately walked over and sat down on the sofa. Seeing that there were no other wounds on Mo Han’s body except those he noticed earlier, Luo Fei heaved a sigh of relief, and asked seriously: “What’s the origin of those people who kidnapped you? Were they trying to ransom you?”

Mo Han shook his head. “It’s not for money. They want to get the code to crack the new generation of spaceships. Although they didn’t clearly explain things, I’m guessing they should be related to Tianyu Group.”

This is what his dad discovered before.

Not long ago, Fang Ziqian asked Mo Han to tell his father that the code source of the Locke virus was related to Tianyu Group. Mo Han has been investigating this matter recently. Tianyu Group is KM Airlines’ biggest competitor, and they probably want to use the virus to bring down the competition. The unexpected launch of the smart spaceships caused Tianyu Group’s stock to plummet nearly 70% recently.

The other party was probably in a hurry and wanted to force Mo Han to crack the code.

Hearing Mo Han’s words, Luo Fei immediately guessed that it was related to business competition, and couldn’t help saying angrily: “This method is too low!”

Mo Han said coldly. “The business world is like a battlefield. Glamorous on the surface, but many use unscrupulous means in private. In fact, I noticed it a long time ago, which is why I left the password for you. They should have been following me for a long time, but because I usually have bodyguards around, it’s hard to do anything. Today they forcibly kidnapped me while my bodyguards were not around.”

Luo Fei asked: “You have a C-class mech by your side, why didn’t you resist at that time?”

Mo Han said lightly: “They have all undergone professional training, and are equipped with combat mechs. Their sudden appearance caught me off guard. I wasn’t sure about fighting one-on-four, so I didn’t resist and followed them obediently. I bet their plan to kidnap me wouldn’t endanger my life, and resisting might bring more trouble instead.”

Luo Fei praised: “You are indeed very calm. In such a situation, it is right not to resist and leave the rescue to me and Chongming.” After a pause, Luo Fei raised another doubt. “What about Noah? Why didn’t they find it?”

There is no mech space button necklace on Mo Han’s neck, Luo Fei was a little confused about where Noah was.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Mo Han pushed back a strand of hair behind his ear, and said, “Here.”

Luo Fei looked carefully, and sure enough, he saw a very small earring on both ears. The diameter of the earring was only a few millimeters, and it wasn’t visible unless he looked carefully. Even now it looked like a decoration. In fact, Noah, the most advanced smart intelligence in the Empire, is hidden in one of the stud earrings.

Luo Fei asked, “Which one is it?”

Mo Han said, “The left ear.”

There was no difference between the two earrings, and because he saw Mo Han’s ear up close, Luo Fei saw the red mole behind Mo Han’s earlobe again. Mo Han generously let him look at his ears without worrying about the red mole being discovered. This shows that Mo Han probably didn’t know that he has a red mole behind his ears, let alone Luo Fei noticing it when he was disguised as Mo Lin.

Luo Fei smiled slightly, probably Mo Han would never have dreamed that his meticulously choreographed seamless script would be betrayed by such a small mole.

Seeing the red mole behind Mo Han’s ear again, Luo Fei suddenly asked in a low voice: “Mo Han, I’ve been chasing you for so long. Have your thoughts changed, even a bit?”

Mo Han didn’t answer, but looked back at Luo Fei.

Staring at each other, Luo Fei found that Mo Han’s gaze was very calm. He nervously clenched his fingers, looking at Mo Han expectantly as if waiting for a judge to pronounce his sentence.

In the next second, Mo Han smiled slightly and said softly: “Fool.”

Luo Fei was stunned: “Huh?”

Why is he calling me stupid? Could it be that his impression of himself is still the same as that silly First Prince who was acting with his vest fallen off?

Luo Fei scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, “You still think I’m stupid?”

Mo Han looked at Luo Fei, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, “Aren’t you stupid?”

Luo Fei: “…”

Seeing him drooping his head in frustration, Mo Han was amused. Resisting the urge to rub his head, he said in a low voice: “I still have a lot of work to do these days, and have to deal with the Tianyu Group too. Isn’t your academy’s assessment phase about to begin? Let’s take this matter slow and talk about it later.”

Luo Fei immediately became excited: “So, I still have hope?”

Mo Han: “…”

Stupid! Not only do you have hope, you are almost there.

I gave Little Mo Han to you, why don’t you understand?

Mo Han’s temples throbbed. Does he have to say the words “I like you” himself in order for Luo Fei to understand?

In fact, Luo Fei never expected Mo Han to fall in love with him so quickly, and treated the model as a return gift. He didn’t dare think of it as anything else. Because he was the one who fell in love first, he always felt that Mo Han was unattainable, and felt that he needed more time to impress Mo Han.

Unexpectedly, his sincerity and frankness, gentleness and caring had already penetrated the defenses in Mo Han’s heart.

Facing Luo Fei’s expectant eyes, Mo Han smiled slightly, stretched out his hand again to help him straighten his wet hair, and said, “Yes, you have hope. Keep working hard.”

Luo Fei’s eyes lit up, and he stretched out his arms. “I was really scared to death today, I thought something would happen to you. For the sake of my fear, can I ask for a hug first?”

Mo Han nodded, and took the initiative to reach out and hug him.

Luo Fei immediately hugged Mo Han back tightly, his fingers were still trembling slightly from worry that something happened to Mo Han.

Mo Han’s eyes softened upon feeling his anxiety and fear.

The simple First Prince’s feelings towards him are pure. He’s usually like a little milk dog, but he can become a wolf at a critical moment. During today’s rescue, he was decisive and straightforward, without hesitation – how can he not like such a man?

He is indeed a little silly, but he is also so cute that Mo Han fell for him willingly.

This kidnapping was not like the previous ones, the other party acted in a hurry without planning things through. Plus Luo Fei’s rescue was swift and effective, so he didn’t suffer much. Even then, Mo Han would never tolerate those who dared to threaten him!

After solving these trivial matters, maybe he should give Luo Fei a little sweetness?

Luo Fei is so excited from just a hug… what if he kisses him? Would he be so excited that he would have a heart attack?
