After returning to the dormitory, Mohr felt increasingly upset. It was the first time he had feelings for someone, yet he knew it was unlikely to amount to anything. The thought of Lu Cheng’an marrying someone else in the future weighed heavily on his chest, making it difficult to breathe.

He couldn’t dwell on it anymore!

Mohr, feeling restless, opened the refrigerator hoping to find something to eat, only to discover a bottle of wine inside. It was a gift from his classmates when he graduated, but he rarely drank, so he had left it in the refrigerator.

Perhaps drinking could improve his mood a little? Mohr took out the wine, opened it, poured some into a glass, and sat on the sofa, taking a sip.

The spicy taste of the wine burned his throat, making his tongue numb, and his stomach felt uncomfortable as if it were on fire. Mohr furrowed his brow and drank half a glass more. The scene before him gradually became blurry. He thought to himself, his tolerance for alcohol was really poor; he was already feeling dizzy after just two drinks. However, it seemed the saying “drinking away sorrows” was true after all. After getting drunk, his mind felt hazy, and he didn’t feel as miserable.

Mohr continued to pour and drink more wine in a daze until he eventually collapsed on the sofa.

At two in the afternoon, Lu Cheng’an bought pastries and returned, thinking that Mohr hadn’t eaten enough for lunch, so he decided to deliver the packed pastries to Mohr’s residence. He rang the doorbell but received no response even after waiting for a while. Lu Cheng’an reached out to knock on the door, but just as his hand touched the door, it unexpectedly opened a crack. Evidently, Mohr hadn’t closed the door properly after whatever he was doing.

“Mohr, are you there?” Lu Cheng’an walked into the room with confusion. He found Mohr sleeping on the sofa, a bottle of wine on the table, and a glass used for drinking knocked over, spilling wine all over the floor. The strong smell of alcohol made Lu Cheng’an slightly startled. He walked over and asked, “Have you been drinking?”

Mohr was clearly drunk, his cheeks flushed, his eyes tightly closed, and he seemed to be in discomfort. Seeing him like this, Lu Cheng’an felt a pang of heartache for some reason and his voice softened, “Go sleep on the bed; you’ll catch a cold like this.”

Lu Cheng’an reached out, lifted Mohr horizontally, and headed towards the bedroom. Mohr, in a daze, heard someone calling him. Struggling to open his eyes, he saw a familiar figure. Even when drunk, he couldn’t forget this person? Mohr stared blankly at Lu Cheng’an in front of him, thinking he was dreaming.

Lu Cheng’an carried him back to the bedroom, gently laying him on the bed, and removed his glasses, placing them on the bedside table. Just as he was about to get up to get him some water, Mohr suddenly reached out, tightly hugging Lu Cheng’an’s shoulder, “Don’t go…”

Lu Cheng’an was taken aback, looking down at the person on the bed.

Mohr, half-drunk and half-awake, with his glasses off, his eyes looked even more beautiful than usual. However, at this moment, they were filled with confusion, and his voice was soft, “I dreamt of you again… Since it’s a dream, could you… turn around and look at me?”

Before Lu Cheng’an could react, Mohr’s lips pressed against his. Lu Cheng’an’s heart skipped a beat, and his back stiffened instantly. He thought he was dreaming. When Mohr kissed him, it was both innocent and full of desire, cautious as if touching an elusive light. Mohr pressed his lips against Lu Cheng’an’s, his cheeks blushing, a hint of moisture in his eyes.

Sensing no resistance from Lu Cheng’an, Mohr became bolder, gently prying open the other’s lips with his tongue, kissing lightly, as if painting the contours of his lips as he had in his dreams. The tender kiss made Lu Cheng’an’s breath gradually become erratic.

“Um…” Sensitive as he was, Mohr’s kiss, pure yet longing, even caused a physical response in Lu Cheng’an. Lu Cheng’an stiffly pushed away Mohr’s hands, forcing him back onto the bed, and said softly, “You’re drunk.”

Mohr was already dizzy from the alcohol, and after being pushed back, he had no strength left to do anything. He just lay there, looking at Lu Cheng’an with moist eyes, seeming somewhat aggrieved by the interruption. Looking at his gentle, obedient eyes, Lu Cheng’an’s heart raced uncontrollably.

Recalling the kiss just now and what he said about dreaming of him again, Lu Cheng’an couldn’t help but ask softly, “Do you know who I am?”

Mohr subconsciously replied, “You’re Captain Lu.”

Lu Cheng’an’s voice was hoarse, “So, you often… dream of me?”

Mohr nodded obediently, “Yes, ever since I first saw you, I’ve always dreamt of you.”

Lu Cheng’an was speechless. Mohr actually secretly liked him?! Realizing this, Lu Cheng’an was incredibly surprised. He looked at the drowsy figure on the bed, realizing that Mohr was indeed very different from the previous guide. The previous guide, Sister Lin, had a more laissez-faire attitude towards Lu Cheng’an, considering his good physical condition; there was no need to worry about minor injuries.

But since Mohr took over as the guide, he had been especially nervous every time Lu Cheng’an suffered even a small injury. He would always carefully help treat Lu Cheng’an’s wounds, and even bring him some nutritious food himself, pouring water and delivering medicine personally. He took care of the captain meticulously, so much so that other sentinels in the team said Mohr was like Captain Lu’s intimate butler. He had thought Mohr was just gentle and caring by nature, willing to take care of people.

But he actually liked him?

No wonder Mohr has been upset today. Is it because he accepted Mrs. Joseph’s arrangement to meet with another guide, which made him feel so miserable that he secretly hid to drink?

With this in mind, Lu Cheng’an’s heart softened, and he couldn’t help but reach out and gently touch Mohr’s head. Mohr’s hair felt very soft, and he behaved particularly obediently when being petted. He even rubbed his head against Lu Cheng’an’s hand, a gesture that melted Lu Cheng’an’s heart instantly.

The guy who got drunk was just too cute, wasn’t he?

Lu Cheng’an ruffled Mohr’s hair and whispered, “Am I too careless, or are you just too good at hiding things?”

Mohr fell asleep in a daze. He had a nightmare. In the dream, Lu Cheng’an and the girl he met today walked hand in hand into the wedding hall, where they intimately kissed amid the blessings of family and friends. Meanwhile, Mohr could only stand there in a suit, applauding as a groomsman.

The dream was too long. Although the wedding scene was warm and romantic, Mohr felt uncomfortable all over. He stood at Lu Cheng’an’s wedding as if he were an extra person. The gazes of those guests were filled with mockery and pity.

When he woke up from the dream, Mohr had a splitting headache, feeling like there was a knife cutting his nerves in his head.

The feeling of a hangover was indeed uncomfortable. Mohr got up from the bed with a furrowed brow, went to the living room, and was about to pour some water when he ran into a pair of familiar eyes—Lu Cheng’an, wearing an apron, holding a kitchen knife, was chopping vegetables in the kitchen.

At the moment their eyes met, Lu Cheng’an smiled slightly and said, “Awake?”

Mohr widened his eyes, his voice trembling uncontrollably, “Captain Lu? What are you doing here?”

Lu Cheng’an said calmly, “I came in the afternoon to deliver pastries to you, but found you drunk. Worried about your safety, I decided to stay.” He pointed to the vegetables on the cutting board and said, “There were some vegetables in the fridge, so I cooked some dishes randomly. Let’s have dinner together.”

Mohr’s face turned pale, and he averted his gaze guiltily, asking in a low voice, “Did I… do anything stupid after getting drunk?”

Lu Cheng’an cleared his throat and said, “No, you’ve just been sleeping.”

Mohr breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Cheng’an continued, “With such poor tolerance for alcohol, you shouldn’t drink in the future.”

Mohr blushed slightly and murmured, “I just saw a bottle of wine in the fridge and thought it was a waste, so I opened it to taste.”

Lu Cheng’an didn’t expose him and quickly stir-fried the dishes, placing three dishes and a soup on the table, saying, “You didn’t eat enough for lunch and drank in the afternoon, which is bad for your stomach. I made some easy-to-digest dishes; eat a bit more.”

Watching Lu Cheng’an’s smile, Mohr couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable. He knew that Captain Lu stayed behind to take care of him out of righteousness. If it were any other teammate from the eagle Special Forces, Lu Cheng’an would do the same. But he couldn’t help but long for this warmth.

Mohr ate his meal with his head down, still looking unhappy.

Lu Cheng’an casually said, “By the way, the female guide I met today was my classmate from elementary school.”

Mohr felt a sourness in his heart and forced out a smile, “You two looked quite compatible and had a good chat, right?”

Lu Cheng’an hurriedly explained, “That’s not the case. We were in the same class in elementary school, but we haven’t seen each other for many years, so we just chatted a bit. I’ve already explained to her that we’re not very suitable, and I don’t want to waste her time, so it’s better to be friends.”

Mohr was taken aback. Why did Captain Lu feel the need to explain all this to him? Of course, after hearing the explanation, he did feel much better.

Seeing Mohr silent, Lu Cheng’an touched his nose and added, “In the future, I won’t go out to eat alone with other guides anymore. I’ve already told Mrs. Joseph’s side not to match me with guides anymore; I’m not interested.”

Mohr lifted his head, “Aren’t you going to date?”

Lu Cheng’an smiled and said, “…Not exactly. I still need to think about it.”

Mohr responded with an “Oh” and didn’t continue the topic.

The two of them finished dinner in a strange atmosphere. Lu Cheng’an then returned to his own dormitory. Upon arriving home, he gently touched his lips, recalling the scene when Mohr kissed him in the afternoon. Lu Cheng’an couldn’t help but smile wryly—it was his first kiss, and unexpectedly, he had given it to a guy who got drunk unexpectedly.

He had always regarded Mohr as a younger brother. Thinking about Mohr, who was responsible for helping so many sentinels with their mental guidance, Lu Cheng’an felt a little guilty. Therefore, he took care of Mohr a bit more, but he never thought about anything else. But today, he discovered a secret.

Mohr was actually secretly in love with him. He didn’t expose it just now, just to save Mohr some face, so as not to embarrass him. Moreover, he hadn’t figured out his own feelings yet; he needed to think it over carefully. Mohr’s affection for him was very sincere, so he couldn’t be too casual. If he really decided to be together, he would have to be wholehearted to deserve Mohr’s genuine feelings.
