Chapter 127 Only You Are Left

Lin Yao didn't speak, but silently kissed him.

After four years of longing for each other, this kiss finally felt real.

It turns out he really wanted to thank Xingchen.

So when you can kiss, don't be hypocritical and pretend to resist, otherwise you'll end up like the past four years, wanting to touch but unable to.

This is the answer Lin Yao has painstakingly come to understand over the past few years.

"What's wrong?" Xie Xingchen noticed his emotional fluctuation and became gentler, saying indistinctly, "The stray cat has become clingy."

Lin Yao hummed in agreement, stepped back slightly, and slowly regulated his breathing.

He could feel the other person's arm pressed against his lower back through his clothes.

"Do you have a fever?" he murmured.

Xie Xingchen raised his chin and couldn't help but peck at him: "I've been in the acute phase these past two days. When I came out, they changed my medication. The old man said there would be some side effects the first two times."

"What side effects?" Lin Yao asked him.

Xie Xingchen gripped his lower back and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm so aroused, so I told you not to seduce me, but you didn't listen."

The car was dimly lit, and Lin Yao was relieved that the other person couldn't see the blush on his cheeks: "Then don't go."

Xie Xingchen glanced at the time displayed on the control panel and said in a low voice, "Three minutes left."

It's actually quite difficult, especially since the highly compatible Omega is so hot, it's a hellish test for an Alpha who's been single for four years.

Lin Yao reached out, but Xie Xingchen pressed his hand down, and the latter smiled and said, "Captain Lin, you can't be distracted while carrying out a mission."

“........Okay.” Lin Yao cupped his face and kissed him solemnly. “It’s okay, wait for me here, I’ll be back soon. If nothing unexpected happens, I’ll call the police.”

Lin Yao's phone vibrated beside him. He saw it was He Li, swiped to answer, and his voice, which had been so sweet and affectionate, was gone: "What's up?"

"You two, stop kissing. Aren't you here on a mission?" the other party said bluntly. "If the military finds out, you'll get a demerit."

Lin Yao felt uneasy and looked out through the dark glass window: "Can you see?"

"Haha, I tricked you and you got it right away. I knew it. It couldn't be anything serious. It's probably something inappropriate for children." He Li said smugly. "Brother Yao, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person."

Lin Yao: ""

He really didn't know why Xie Xingchen had brought this guy along.

"Hang up." He opened the car door, got out deftly, tucked the Falcon 47 into his waistband, and quickly drove away.

Xie Xingchen watched his retreating figure. Such a narrow waist, almost two-thirds of which was covered by a gun. The feeling of his hand pinching his waist still lingered in his palm.

He tilted his head back, slowly exhaled, and muttered to himself, "Tonight's dream material."

After using the pain to bring herself back to her senses, she was still worried about Lin Yao going alone, so she followed him anyway.

Over the past few years, Xie Xingchen has become very familiar with the terrain of Langzhuang. He sneaked into the top floor, watched the high-ranking officials of the Seventh Star System enter their rooms, and witnessed the transaction. He could then arrest them for their collusion.

But something just doesn't feel right.

It's still going too smoothly.

From a distance, they saw Lin Yao on the other side of the corridor dialing the police.

Zhuang Lang's arrest will inevitably implicate the mastermind behind him. Who will he implicate, Yun Qing or Xie Hengzhi?

The police responded quickly, and Lin Yao soon saw police lights flashing below. Just then, he spotted Xie Dai flying over in the dark night sky.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Yao asked in a low voice.

"You came with General Pei? I just saw Xie Xingchen!" Xie Dai hadn't seen them for a while and was incredibly excited. "You two, have you rekindled your old flame?! Did you hug? Did you kiss? Did you do... oh..."

"Shut up." Lin Yao reacted quickly. "Wait, you said your godfather is in there too?"

Xie Dai nodded: "Yes, he came over in a hurry after receiving a phone call and told me to wait outside."

Lin Yao stared at the door for a few seconds, his heart sinking.

No, we shouldn't have called the police; this was a setup.

[AA Baby]: My godfather is here. I don't know what excuse I used to trick him into coming.

[AA Baby]: They're planning to frame me, what should I do?

Xie Xingchen received his message, but before he could reply, he saw a large group of police officers had already surrounded Langzhuang.

[xxc]: Let's leave first, neither of us can be present at the scene.

Lin Yao stared at the door for a long time, grabbed Xie Dai and put him in his pocket, then nimbly climbed over the edge of the corridor and hid in the crowded people in Corridor No. 1.

Ten minutes later, the informant sent a message that Pei Yizhong and Zhuang Lang had been taken away for investigation.

Lin Yao's face turned ashen. When he got back to the car, his palms were sweating profusely. Even after Xie Xingchen returned, he was still stiff all over.

"Don't worry, it's just a routine investigation." Xie Xingchen reassured him, "We did underestimate the old man. He may suspect that someone is investigating him and has traced him to Uncle Pei, so he issued a warning."

Lin Yao moved his lips: "It's my fault."

Xie Xingchen reached out and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said in a low voice, "It's not your fault. If it were me, I would have called the police as well, given the evidence."

"Why would my godfather be there? He couldn't possibly have any connection with them." Lin Yao couldn't understand it; it was utterly incomprehensible.

Xie Xingchen stared into Lin Yao's eyes, but quickly realized what was going on.

The only thing that could capture Pei Yizhong's attention was something related to Lin Yao. It would be too easy for them to lure him out—Lin Yao's experimental report from back then.

If you tell him that you have a report about Lin Yao, he will show up even if he knows it's a trap.

Xie Xingchen couldn't say anything, but whispered, "Don't worry, I'll find someone to inquire about the progress of the interrogation. There's no way to pin something on him that he didn't do. It's just a warning about the possibility of something going wrong before the election, so don't overthink it."

"Xie Xingchen, can we really win?" Lin Yao looked up at him.

"He's too meticulous. Could it be that he already discovered your investigation? Are you really without any flaws? Today's police report has probably already exposed you."

"No, don't overthink it. The police have been keeping an eye on Zhuang Lang. At most, we just provided some clues," Xie Xingchen offered a weak reassurance.

This warning was not only directed at Pei Yizhong, but also served as a veiled warning to them.

The Alliance Leader has countless ways to smooth things over silently. Lin Yao reached out and held his wrist. The other person was still very hot because of the change in inhibitors, but his palm was extremely cold.

"Xie Xingchen, I'm a little scared."

It was rare for Lin Yao to reveal such a frank vulnerability.

The fact that a general was taken away like this was definitely not as simple as Xie Xingchen's words, which were just a warning. He had already foreseen all the confrontations that would follow.

Today marks the beginning of this war without gunfire.

Xie Xingchen leaned down slightly, half-kneeling on the back seat, and looked down at him: "Four years ago, when I decided to infiltrate their ranks, I was already waiting for the day when I would stand on the opposite side of them. I was prepared long ago."

Lin Yao said softly, "But you don't want to hand over the evidence regarding Yun Qing, do you?"

He could clearly sense that Xie Xingchen's feelings for Yun Qing were an innate dependence on the mother who had given him life. Moreover, Yun Qing had always taken great care of him from childhood to adulthood.

The pain of childbirth and the gratitude for raising children cannot be erased simply by saying that the law is above all else.

Xie Xingchen lowered his eyes, a hint of moisture welling up within them: "He did something wrong and deserves to be judged."

Lin Yao felt sorry for his rationality.

Just like four years ago, Xie Xingchen wrote a letter saying that he wanted to seek justice for himself.

In retrospect, this method of atonement, which puts him in opposition to his dearest father, is too cruel.

Lin Yao moved his lips and said regretfully, "Xie Xingchen, did we choose the wrong path from the very beginning?"

"No mistake, I should do it both morally and logically."

Xie Xingchen paused, then leaned down and buried his face completely in Lin Yao's neck, speaking in a very low voice.

"But Yao Yao, if it really comes to that, you'll be all I have left."
