Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

“You can’t jump! Now that the oil tank has exploded, the oil is still covering the surface of the water. The fire will go on for a long while, and we can’t be sure that a second explosion won’t happen.” The people from the US military held Qiao Fei back with force. “Don’t jump!”

“No! Feng Ling was caught in the explosion. He can’t swim out on his own right now. If we delay any further, he will die! Let go! Let go of me!”

“Calm down…”

“Feng Ling is a member of our base; a member of our sniper team. She can’t be harmed!” Qiao Fei was enraged as he pushed them away. He did not pause to waste another breath on them and directly jumped off the ship. He swam in the direction of the blazing fire.

Not too far away, they had finally managed to haul the mayor’s wife up the rope ladder and into the helicopter. They sat her down and began reassuring her. However, at this moment, the leader of the rescue team glanced down to see the persisting fire on the surface of the water. He furrowed his brows: “Are we able to go close now?”

The member piloting the helicopter answered sternly: “Leader, we can’t approach again. Our fuel tank was affected by the risky attempt earlier. Right now, it’s already overheated. Just listen to the noise our helicopter is making; if we lean closer once again, our helicopter will also explode in mid-air.”

“But Feng Ling is down there. Have you forgotten what Boss said? When the mission comes to an end, nobody can be missing. Everyone has to return with their lives intact. Feng Ling especially; he is a member of the sniper team, and he is the member that Boss has been working hard to nurture. If he is sacrificed in this rescue mission, this mission can only be considered a failure! Quick, think of ways to save him!”

“But the fire is still so strong. We really can’t approach anymore!”

Hearing this, the rescue team leader abruptly placed his headphones back on. He furrowed his brows as he gave his report to Boss, who was currently in the midst of a combat with the terrorists.

Feng Ling

Feng Ling was extremely adept in water. However, in this moment, she felt as though her bones had been shattered and pieced back together; the pain was unbearable to the point where she could not move. As she sunk into the ocean, she closed her eyes and felt that the suffocation was strangely terrifying.

She wasn’t sure where this sense of terror had come from; she was never one to fear water. However, in this instant, an indescribable ice-cold sensation was gradually drowning her.

However, when she closed her eyes instinctively to wait for her life to end, Li Nanheng’s image strangely appeared in her mind.

She felt as though Li Nanheng was standing right before her; he watched her with stern, ice-cold eyes and ordered her: “Swim up! Only the weak would give up the last opportunity for survival! Swim!”

Feng Ling furrowed her brows. Her fingers subconsciously twitched, but she discovered that she completely could not move.

Qiao Fei was indeed capable in water as well. As there was a large amount of oil and flames on the surface of the water, he directly swam down in the direction Feng Ling and fell. From afar, he saw that Feng Ling’s body was sinking heavily and rapidly down. Qiao Fei gathered his strength and swam ahead. He reached out and grabbed Feng Ling’s waist, holding her firmly in his arms. Under the water, due to the debris and oil, it was difficult to see where he was going. He could only do his best to bring Feng Ling to what appeared to be the safest place for the time being.

When they finally broke through the surface of the water, Qiao Fei held Feng Ling with one hand and rubbed his own face with the other. He took in two deep breaths before turning to look at the limp, unconscious Feng Ling. The young man in his arms was unbelievably soft. Qiao Fei furrowed his brows and called Feng Ling’s name. When he saw that there was no reaction, he immediately understood that the teen must have breathed in too much smoke earlier and choked on too much water. His lungs were clogged and his breathing was affected.

If they delayed any further, he would lose his life.

Qiao Fei glanced at his surroundings; they had unconsciously been pushed by the current further away from shore. The US military were a bunch of trash who only knew to watch without doing anything; they did not move their ship closer and it was likely they wouldn’t be able to find them in time.

The XI Base’s rescue team was currently staying in the sky; they were working hard to locate Feng Ling and him.

However, Feng Ling’s condition right now wasn’t good.

Qiao Fei scanned the distance between them and the shore, and turned back to glance at a small, unknown island not too far away. It wasn’t located where the deep waters were, and it shouldn’t take too long for the rescue team to locate them there.

Qiao Fei rubbed his face hard and tightened his grip around Feng Ling. He brought Feng Ling with him as he swam for that small island.

Qiao Fei brought Feng Ling ashore with great difficulty. Right now, he needed to force Feng Ling to cough out the water she had swallowed. At the same time, he needed to perform CPR for her.

He quickly unfastened Feng Ling’s buttons and opened her soaked clothes. He removed her inner layers and faltered for a moment when her snow white collarbones were revealed. He continued his movements only to see the white, binding cloth underneath. It was wrapped tightly around what was clearly a woman’s chest. Qiao Fei was instantly flabbergasted.

Although he didn’t see the main point, but the tightly wrapped cloth and the clear shape of her figure; after considering the fact that Feng Ling never grew any beard despite almost turning eighteen, and her typical feminine silhouette, everything instantly clicked.

He was actually a… a woman…

A woman…

A woman!!

He had already said that he was straight. Yet, in this base, especially after he was transferred into the sniper team, he was strangely and constantly attracted to Feng Ling.

It was actually, ‘opposite sex attracts,’

Despite how perfectly she had concealed it.

At the end of the day, she was still a girl.

Qiao Fei first stared in disbelief at the pale Feng Ling who was laying on the shore. After digesting the fact that she was a woman, he returned to himself in less than thirty seconds. He opened her clothes once more but did not dare to touch her binding cloth. The young girl’s skin was unbelievably soft and tempting; he felt like a criminal just by looking at it. However, it was more important to save her life and he could not pause to consider so much. He placed his hands firmly on her chest and began to press down.

After more than ten compressions, Feng Ling’s body shivered heavily. She then coughed out a mouthful of water, followed by several more mouthfuls. She finally then regained some of her consciousness. However, her brows were still furrowed. She groaned uncomfortably from the pain.
