Dongmei naturally knew something was wrong and quickly approached him, placing his arm across her shoulder before asking worriedly, "Wuxing... What happened?!" 

Wuxing thought he could handle one more transformation but it turned out his breakfast wasn't enough. Smiling bitterly to her, Wuxing pointed at the suitcase and said weakly, "It's nothing, cough, open the suitcase and pass me the bag inside." 

Dongmei naturally rushed to the suitcase after making sure he could stand alone and found a small breakfast bag, similar to the one they had at her apartment and passed it to him quickly. He unpacked it and pulled out two sizeable balls from inside, looking as if it was made from a lot of nuts or oats. 

"Thank you," Wuxing said as he gave them a solid bite and ate slowly while leaning over the wall, gradually regaining his strengths. Fortunately, this time he was lacking only a small amount of energy so he didn't suffer too much due to hunger. 

"What happened? Were you feeling weak cause of hunger?" Dongmei asked concerned after seeing that his pale face regained its colour. She found it weird as she recalled him eating a lot for breakfast and there were less than two hours after they finished it. 

"Yes. I'm good now." After finishing both sticky balls, Wuxing packed the rest which were in the bag tightly before putting it into his suit pocket, explaining it to curious Dongmei right after, "Each transformation consumes a lot of energy so I have to eat a lot of calories before I do it to support that. I made those energy balls to refill my energy during this escape but I somehow miscalculated and had a small drop of power right now. I am still new to this but I should be getting the hang of it very soon." 

Hearing the explanation, Dongmei sighed in relief that Wuxing was fine but still hit him lightly on the shoulder, scolding him for scaring her, "Ah, dummy! You made me worried…" 

"I'm sorry, I could tell you earlier." Wuxing could only hug her and apologise, wanting their last moments to only give her happy memories. They still won't be seeing each other for more than a week just like in his original plan, the only difference being Dongmei travelling with him for an additional two hours as he reaches the mainland. 


Wuxing thought of pulling Dongmei's GPS tracker inside of her hand and take her with him but that would only make her parents turn over every country and mobilize everyone at their disposal to find them. He didn't believe they could run away from them in that case. He could change his identity but Dongmei couldn't. 

Dongmei didn't really mind it as that was all an act but nonetheless, she enjoyed their last hug and sent him off with a soft wave, "It's okay… As long as you are fine. You should go now." His face was no longer the same, making her kissing instinct falter. She decided to wait for his new look to first get used to that one. 

Without looking at him anymore, Dongmei turned and walked towards the bathroom only to be stopped by him as he asked warmly, recalling her previous request, "Don't you want to see how will I look later?" 

To his pleasant surprise, Dongmei picked her bra from the bed and turned around while wearing it, saying playfully as she approached him with his suitcase, "You think you can run away from me even if you change your face? I will find you in the crowd even if you want to hide." 

Wuxing took the suitcase while looking at her and teased her, "Oh, will you? What if you fall for another guy thinking it was me?" He knew that she had her lying detector with her so it would be hard, but he couldn't help himself from teasing. 

Dongmei only flicked his ear and walked back to the toilet while juggling her butt with light hops, saying softly, "You won't be getting it unless I once again see your real face to confirm it's you. I only place my cards on the winning bets." 

...….

At the same time, less than thirty minutes of sailing away from them, a pair of Destroyers were catching up quickly, rushing up towards the cargo ship Wuxing and Dongmei was staying at. On the deck, right at the stem, the Captain of the Navy was standing with the arms behind his back. His face was full smiles, still thinking about the money he could earn from this mission. 

If one said that money couldn't buy anything, Guan Dong would laugh. When the Captain heard the request, he couldn't help but laugh and think of rejecting it right away, only to later see the prize money for the successful mission out of curiosity and choke seeing so many zeros. 

There were no ships available a moment ago but when money was involved, suddenly two newest Destroyers happened to be available and ready to sail. He didn't wait anymore and accepted the Mission right away, setting off in the next ten or so minutes. 

The handsome Captain, having only thirty years old, laughed once again as he called out loud, his voice drowned out by the crashing waves, "Hahaha, one hundred million just for killing one guy and saving the princess, who wouldn't accept it?!" He just became the Captain after serving only ten years because of his recent great achievements but he already received a private mission worth one hundred million. 

"Sir!" Just as he finished laughing, one of his lieutenants came up to him, saluting properly. As a Captain, he didn't need to return back and only acknowledged it before asking, "What's the status?" 

Standing at attention, the Lieutenant reported, "Sir! We already spotted them with our radars! With their speed, I think we can catch up to them in less than fifty minutes. We should be able to block them before they enter the port. Sir, should we utilize our top speed to catch up with them sooner?" 

Setting the ship into its top speed would cost them a lot which is why it required the Captain's decision. As there was no need for that, the Navy Captain shook his head and ordered, "Let's keep such course. There is no need to add to the costs as I'm paying for the whole operation. Make sure we will catch up to them before they reach the mainland and it should be alright. If the mission is successful, I will give each member a bonus of ten thousand just for today with Commanders and Lieutenants getting even more. I don't want any mishaps, are we clear?"

The Captain was in a good mood, not being stingy to his crew already planning to take around ten million from the prize money and split it between them all. When the Lieutenant heard the number, he naturally smiled with happiness, knowing they could earn more than their monthly payment in just one day and saluted once again, "Yes, Sir! I won't disappoint you, Sir!" 

The Captain nodded and returned to watching the waves in front of the ship while saying, "Good, you can go." 

"Yes, sir!" The Lieutenant finally let go of his salute and rushed back to the control room on the bridge. 

Being alone once again, the Captain's mind suddenly thought of something different, 'I wonder how does the Guan Family's Princess look… I definitely need to make a good impression on her. I'm still single after all. Getting a lady with such background would set me for life…' 

...….

As Wuxing left the cabin, he spotted the Captain and two other female sailors looking at the control panels that he used to navigate the ship and called out to him with praise, "Captain, the tea you have was indeed delicious. If I could, I would drink another cup but I can no longer disturb Miss Guan." Wuxing naturally noticed how both of them were really pretty with great bodies which create initial assumptions which he confirmed right after. 

As they were only standing there while rubbing the Captains back, one could easily figure out why he brought them there. The Captain was occupied with his ladies so he didn't hear when Wuxing opened the doors and only heard his voice when it was too late to hide the evidence. 

The Captain smiled embarrassed and his hands moved away from the ladies, before trying to cover up the situation with the conversation, "Oh! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I make sure to drink strong tea every day to stay awake. Did you get your cabin assigned already? It would be bad if the friend of Miss Guan didn't have his own cabin. There is still about one hour until we reach so you can rest a bit." 

Giving one of the ladies an ogling glance, Wuxing smiled as he suddenly thought of something that could help him and said, "Actually, I didn't yet. How about one of the misses will show me a way to my cabin? I don't want to get lost." His made a lewd smile before trying to cover it. 

The Captain clearly saw Wuxing expression but he didn't mind it at all and smiled, knowing the two of them had the same thoughts. He was already exposed by Wuxing so he didn't care anymore and slapped both of the female sailor's butts, asking them, "Which one of you would like to help out Mr Cheng? How about you Scarlet?" 

Wuxing noticed that one of the girls wasn't exactly comfortable with the way Captain slapped her, but she suppressed her unwillingness as if something big was motivating her and continued to smile gently despite another person treating her as such. 

The same innocent-looking blond-haired beauty which seemed like she was about twenty years old, blinked twice when her name was called and she seized Wuxing up as if trying to confirm if he was a nice man before asking the Captain with a soft and kind voice, "Will the money be the same…?" 

With Scarlet's question, the truth that he was paying them to be here came out and he couldn't help but cover it with a fake cough, nodding hurriedly, "Cough, cough… Naturally. If you make Mr Cheng satisfied, I will give you a triple of the pay." 

When Scarlet heard the word triple, she immediately agreed, "I will do it." She didn't wait for the Captain's call and walked up to Wuxing, hugging into his free arm while wrapping her small hand into his without hesitation. Wuxing could see the strong desire for money in her eyes but it wasn't greed. He saw pain mixed with worry which motivated her to such actions.

Wuxing couldn't help but get interested in what was going inside the girl's head as he could see she wasn't a prostitute. It was more like she was forced to do it out of desperation. Knowing that Dongmei might leave any time soon and he would get killed if she saw him holding another girl's hand, Wuxing decided to leave right away. 

He placed his suitcase on the floor as he could feel how tightly Scarlet was squeezing his hand and reached out to the Captain for a handshake, "Then we will be going then. Thank you for your hospitality, Captain." 

"Of course! My pleasure." The Captain naturally smiled at him, accepting his handshake. He could already see that Wuxing was Dongmei's acquaintance now and it was best if he kept good relations with him.  Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

Just as he thought of letting go of his hands, Wuxing pulled him a bit closer and whispered, "Friendly reminder, don't do anything naughty near Miss Guan of she will kill you. I mean it. She will be leaving soon so watch out." With that said, he finally let go of him and led Scarlet out of the room. She followed quietly next to him as if she was glued to him.
