As for where Chi Zhao went today, Li Yihan naturally knew all about it. The clues he had deliberately left behind were also discovered by Li Yihan, but Chi Zhao had forgotten one thing; once or twice was fine but there cannot be a third time.
Li Yihan was now left with a psychological shadow by Chi Zhao. He stood before the archiving cabinet with furrowed brows for a long time. His first reaction wasn't to think that Qi Yuan had stolen his files, but that Qi Yuan was up to something again.
He had always felt that with Qi Yuan's character, he wouldn't do something like this so simply so there must be some tricks behind it.
And so, he took out a few more folders. As expected, after taking down five, the contents of one didn't match.
Poor Li Yihan. He had to sit down on the floor of the study and go through over a hundred folders, comparing them one by one, before finally finding the missing item.
He thought for a long time only to finally remember that it was a plan that the Planning Department had made at the beginning of the year. Only a few days after it was proposed, it was turned down by himself and the matter was over and done with.
This kind of thing has happened too often. Li Yihan's pain and sadness from earlier had turned into helplessness and amusement. Holding the empty folder, he was still a little curious. He wondered what Qi Yuan would do next to make him misunderstand him.
Qi Yuan had gone to Chang Qing's company. He knew this, but he didn't say anything about it. He just waited patiently for Qi Yuan's act to finish. Qi Yuan hadn't done anything for the past few days but today he finally acted. Checking his location and seeing that he was at the bank in the morning, he felt that something wasn't right.
If he wanted to sell the documents to Chang Qing, shouldn't he go to the bank after meeting Chang Qing? Why did he go to the bank first?
When Tang Si came to find Li Yihan, Li Yihan was checking the activity of the card he had given Qi Yuan.
When Qi Yuan spent money, he never paid it any attention and he wouldn't check it either. Seeing it today, he saw that Qi Yuan had basically not spent anything. With only one or two expenses a day, his daily expenses didn't exceed two hundred yuan. Moreover, these expenses were only spent on food and they were the most common restaurants found lining the streets like hot pot restaurants, skewer restaurants, pickled cabbage and fish restaurants….
He didn't buy clothes or daily necessities or even notebooks for taking notes. Staring at these trivial expenses, Li Yihan finally realised why he found it strange.

He had never bought anything that could be kept or used for a long time.
It was as if he would only stay there for a short period of time. Just like travelling, once it reaches a certain point in time, he would leave.
Tang Size was too nervous when he came in and he didn't look at Li Yihan's face carefully. It was only after he finished saying everything that was on his mind and he checked Li Yihan's reaction that he made a sound of affirmation inside.
Look at that. If you're a man, you would be furious when you hear something like this. Just the look in Li Yihan's eyes was enough to freeze people into ice sculptures!
Tang Size softened his tone and comforted him, "Fortunately, I found out. You should hurry home and see what exactly he sold to Chang Qing so that you can stop the loss in time and then deal with the child later…."
Before he could finish, Li Yihan looked up at him, "Deal with who?"
"Of course, it's dealing with....." Tang Size met his eyes and immediately fell silent. After a long period of silence, he smiled awkwardly, "Deal with me. Uh, that, I'll deal with myself and leave. I still have dinner plans tonight. See you later."
Tang Size ran away in a hurry, letting the door close behind him. There seemed to be a fire burning in Li Yihan's chest. The heat travelled through all his internal organs and there was also a faint feeling of sweetness in his throat. He closed his eyes for a while when suddenly, his computer made a sound.
The bank deposit was instant. When Li Yihan opened his eyes and refreshed the screen, he saw that just half a minute ago, 1.4 million yuan was deposited into the account.
....
Sitting next to the wheel of the car, Chi Zhao held a red wrench as he discussed with the system their next actions.
He decided to loosen three bolts on the wheel of the car. According to the system, once these bolts are loose, it would make it easy for the car to slip when driving and at that point the system would communicate with the world consciousness to create a little accident for Li Yihan to get him into a coma.
Chi Zhao looked bitterly at the bolts for a while before finally making up his mind to loosen it a little. Just as the system was about to praise him, he seemed to have changed his mind and the bolts were tightened again.
Because he was too angry, he used more force when tightening and had tightened the bolt a little more than how it was before.
System: "....."
[What's wrong?]
"I can't do it." Chi Zhao replied in a small voice.
Chi Zhao was very downhearted, and the system was even more so than him, but it must cheer up and comfort Chi Zhao.
[He will make a comeback in the future and will come find you for revenge. You will be able to see an even better him then.]
"Nonsense." Chi Zhao's voice was even smaller, "The Li Yihan at that time won't be the same Li Yihan. It would be Li Yihan 2.0."
System: "...…."
"Because of me, he will no longer trust others. Because of me, he would no longer let others close to his heart. Because of me, he will be left with a psychological shadow that cannot be erased for a lifetime and his heart will always be filled with anger and hatred towards me. Even until he dies, he might not be able to let it go."
The system didn't speak. It was probably because it had nothing to say.
After a long time, the system said carefully.
[Then...what about the matter of going home?]
Chi Zhao scratched his head irritably, "You go clean up. I want some time alone. Don't worry, I'll have everything taken care of by the time you're back."
Chi Zhao wouldn't lie to the system. Since he had said that, the system felt reassured. It stretched out a data strand and gently patted Chi Zhao's neuron.
[Then I'm leaving. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Once you're done, go back to your room and pack your things.]
"I know."
After the system left, Chi Zhao sat there staring at the bolts for a long time. He then finally reached out to loosen the bolts but after a moment of silence, he once again tightened them back.
...…..
Even Chi Zhao thinks he's being silly, but he just couldn't make up his mind. He didn't have the determination to complete the task nor have the determination to give it up. He wanted both, but he also couldn't afford both.
Li Yihan was just a mission target whereas completing the mission and having the opportunity to go back was everything to him. He should be very clear about which one was more important but why was it such a difficult decision?
Chi Zhao suddenly felt frustrated. Sitting on the ground with his hand hanging low, he looked like a pitiful child who had just been abandoned. He raised his free hand to quickly wipe his eyes and sniffed his nose before placing the wrench over the bolt once again.

Li Yihan stood in the shadows by the door of the garage. He had been watching on for a long time with no expression on his face. It was only when he saw him loosen the bolts for the third time that he decided to slowly walk over, squat down behind him and hold the hand holding the wrench.
Chi Zhao turned back in surprise, but Li Yihan didn't look at him. He continued to hold Chi Zhao's hand and move it such that the wrench was over the bolt. Li Yihan's hand was stronger than Chi Zhao's so he was able to very quickly loosen the bolt.
Chi Zhao kept resisting but he couldn't beat Li Yihan's strength. Chi Zhao was so anxious, he was almost in tears. Li Yihan glanced down at him and asked, "Is one enough? Do you want to do another one?"
Chi Zhao's breathing was erratic. He tried his best to retract his hand, but Li Yihan continued to hold onto it tightly, not letting him move. Seeing that he wasn't answering, he asked again.
Chi Zhao was startled. His expression suddenly changed, and he fiercely shook his head. This time, Li Yihan let go of him. Chi Zhao's brain finally came online again, and the system also noticed the abnormality. It quickly dropped its self-cleaning process and hurried back.
In fact, Li Yihan's alias should be Shen Long.
One can see Shen Long's head but not it's tail. This was too strange! How could he always show up when Chi Zhao is about to finish a plot point?!
...…
The system called out to Chi Zhao twice but both times it was ignored. Chi Zhao continued to glare fiercely at Li Yihan, looking as if he was ready to fight him to death.
Met with Qi Yuan's sudden change in attitude, Li Yihan's reaction was very calm. It was as if he didn't help Qi Yuan create a safety hazard for himself just now and had just helped him fry an egg.
Chi Zhao was about to explode in anger, although he didn't understand why he was so angry.
Now that he was found out, then there was no need for him to continue hiding it. He said, "I am a bad guy."
Li Yihan didn't even turn his eyes, "Yeah."
"Saying that I like you was a lie. I only like your money. If you were a pauper, I wouldn't have even paid you any attention."
The first few lines were like a blunt knife, stabbing into Li Yihan's heart. After hearing the second part, the pain gradually eased and he lowered his eyes, "Yeah."
"What yeah?! I hate you, I really hate you! That's why I want to cheat and be with others. You've met Zhou Hetian, right? I've slept with him. You, Li Yihan, have been made to wear a green hat by me!"
This time Li Yihan didn't 'yeah' anymore. He just raised his eyes and looked calmly at Chi Zhao. This calmness however was different from before. It seemed to be a lot more complicated and there seemed to be some kind of emotions Chi Zhao couldn't understand in there.
It was tolerance and deep love. Although he knew that it was a lie, just hearing it coming from Chi Zhao's mouth left a deep wound in Li Yihan's heart. He recovered for a while before being able to calm himself down.
Chi Zhao couldn't bear with it anymore. He pointed at his nose, "I not only made you wear a green hat, I also stole your company's confidential documents and sold them to your competitor for a lot of money. Now that I have received the money, I am ready to leave. Even if you found out now, I'll be leaving tomorrow, and you won't be able to find me after that!"
After pointing at himself, he pointed again at the car, "See that? This is me setting you up for an accident because I'm worried about you going after me. The accident could be big or small or you might even lose your life."
Li Yihan's gaze followed the direction pointed by Chi Zhao's fingers but he continued to show no expressions on his face. Chi Zhao stepped forward and grabbed his collar. He gritted his teeth and said with a slightly trembling voice, "Is there a problem with your brain? After seeing me do so many bad things, why are you not angry?"
Li Yihan's gaze finally moved. He opened his mouth but was only able to speak after a few long seconds of silence, "...I also don't know."
Chi Zhao was dumbfounded. His grip on the collar loosened for a moment. After that short period of shock, he tightened his grip again, the pull forcing Li Yihan to bend down slightly. Chi Zhao cursed, "You have a problem! You are crazy, a masochist! Why are you not angry? I want you to be angry at me, I want you to hate me!"
At first, his voice was cold and harsh, but it later gradually turned hoarse. Li Yihan sighed. He reached out and gently wiped away the tears from the corner of Chi Zhao's eye with his thumb. His tone was a little helpless, "I can't hate you. No matter what you do, I can't hate you. Can't I just.... continue to like you?"
Chi Zhao and Li Yihan looked at each other. After a while, Chi Zhao dropped his hands and rested his head against Li Yihan's chest like he had given up.
There were no other sounds in the silent underground garage but Li Yihan could feel his chest slowly getting wetter and wetter.
Li Yihan raised his hand and gently patted Chi Zhao's back. After a while, when he felt that it was enough, he finally spoke, "Okay, okay. Don't cry."
It would've been better if he hadn't said anything. With those words, Chi Zhao's tears could no longer stop. He broke down and started to sob. Seeing this, Li Yihan immediately became flustered. Li Yihan had thought that he was crying because of him but in fact, it wasn't. Chi Zhao was crying because of his body that was about to be destroyed and he was also saying goodbye to his ten points.
When he later realised that those tears couldn't be stopped, Li Yihan gave up and leaned against his car, allowing Qi Yuan to lean on himself. He didn't know how much time had passed but, in any case, it was long enough for Li Yihan's waist to go numb.
Chi Zhao held tightly onto his waist and was no longer sniffling. Only his nose and the corners of his eyes were still a little red.
He buried his head into Li Yihan's chest and said with a muffled voice, "Mister, I was wrong."
This apology was very different from before, but Li Yihan didn't know how it was different. In any case, he felt like a huge rock had just been moved off from his chest.
He stroked Qi Yuan's back and whispered, "I don't blame you."
Those earlier small commotions and his act of cheating were all because Qi Yuan wanted to leave him. As for his later act of stealing documents and selling them for money, it was because of the words his aunt had said to him. Those words had left a thorn in Qi Yuan's heart, making him feel like he was a burden and that as long as he was around and Li Yihan treated him well, the corporation would deteriorate day by day. After all, even the froth from people's mouths can drown people.

Even todays act of loosening the bolts, Li Yihan understood the reason for it. It was because he was desperate. No matter what he did, he couldn't get the results he wanted so he had decided to take an extreme measure and give himself an attempted murder hat. With this, he would definitely be driven out of the Li Family's door.
Even if he wasn't driven out, he could leave himself and conveniently use the excuse of fleeing after committing a crime. It was just that he couldn't do it in the end. After a moment of impulse, Qi Yuan eventually realised that it was wrong.
After all, he was still a child. Children can make mistakes.
If the system and Chi Zhao knew of Li Yihan's thoughts, they would both definitely give him a big thumbs up ——— Brother, you're good.
"Mister."
Chi Zhao's voice sounded both fragile and weak. Li Yihan lowered his eyes while Chi Zhao raised his head to look at him. Like this, the two looked at each other for a while. Chi Zhao once again had the urge to cry but thinking than men should be tough and that he shouldn't cry again, he quickly wiped away the tears that had leaked out and said softly, "Mister, I love you too."
Li Yihan's I love you was something that could be said without paying a price for it, but Chi Zhao's I love you placed his body and chances of resurrection at stake. Although it didn't sound too serious, the longer it was dragged on for, the greater the chance of failing to be resurrected. Chi Zhao was basically putting everything that he had at stake here.
Li Yihan was stunned. His gaze changed and he opened his mouth to speak but before he could, another voice poured into Chi Zhao's mind first.
[Wuuu—– What kind of legendary love is this?! Host, since you're going all out, I'll go all out too. I also don't want my reward anymore. Let's just spend our days here and we can continue our contract when we get to the next world. Wuuuu——]
Chi Zhao: ".....Shut up."
In fact, even if Chi Zhao didn't give up, the system had already given up. Even since Li Yihan walked into the garage, the plot had already completely collapsed to the point that its mother wouldn't be able to recognise it. Without a car accident, the Li Corporation will not go bankrupt, and if the Li Corporation doesn't go bankrupt, there naturally would not be the subsequent series of retaliations happening. Moreover, looking at the current situation, even if Li Yihan didn't realise and really got into an accident, the first thing he would do after waking would not be restoring his business but to find the host and tie him to his side, preventing him from leaving again.
In any case, the host would not be tortured to death like the original plotline so what was the point of struggling?
After giving up completely, there were no more entanglements in his heart. Chi Zhao naturally no longer made mischief and Li Yihan's life finally went back onto its tracks. There was however something Chi Zhao had always wanted to know.
"How did you know that I was in the underground garage?"
Li Yihan didn't answer. He just brought Chi Zhao to the laptop in his bedroom.
Seeing the surveillance screens on it, Chi Zhao fell silent for a moment. He then asked with confusion, "What made you think of checking the surveillance cameras?"
Li Yihan rubbed Chi Zhao's head, "You made it so obvious that you're about to escape so of course I have to be more vigilant."
Suddenly receiving a large sum of money, Li Yihan realised that Qi Yuan may want to settle things here and leave but he didn't expect Qi Yuan to do it so quickly. Fortunately before he went home, Uncle Zhang had suddenly given him a call.
It wasn't that he disliked Qi Yuan, he was just keenly aware that Qi Yuan had no intention to stay by Li Yihan's side. In a relationship where one is thinking about their future while the other is thinking about how to leave, it is one that is destined to fail. Uncle Zang didn't want to watch Li Yihan who had finally opened up to love to suddenly experience such a heartbreak and that was why his attitude towards Qi Yuan changed.
But when he heard those words from Qi Yuan that day, he couldn't help but think that something didn't seem quite right. Thinking this, he called Li Yihan and told him about the conversation he just had with Qi Yuan. Li Yihan was smarter than Uncle Zhang. He very quickly worked out that Qi Yuan was planning to leave.

Chi Zhao lowered his head guiltily, "I'm sorry."
"Don't apologise to me."
Chi Zhao looked at Li Yihan, confused. He didn't understand what he meant. This time, Li Yihan's hand didn't habitually fall onto the back of Qi Yuan's neck. Instead, it followed the line behind Qi Yuan's ears before slowly moving over to his cheek. He said, "Tell me that you won't leave anymore."
Chi Zhao frowned and muttered in a small voice, "I originally didn't intend on leaving."
The reason for his stay is Li Yihan. If he leaves Li Yihan then for what reason would he stay here for? He should just break his limbs and go off to the next world to complete his next mission.
Li Yihan hooked up his lips slightly. He bent down and kissed the corner of his lips, "That's good then."
....
....
....
Li Yihan, the head of the Li Family, had lost his youth at a young age. After experiencing great setbacks in life early on, his life finally went on a smooth track. No matter what, whether it was love or work, he never encountered another problem.
Under his leadership, the Li Corporation quickly became one of the top three companies in the country and it was also ranked among the top fifty in the world. Although he had an endless supply of money, Li Yihan rarely enjoyed it. What he liked most was returning home to his love and spending time together like ordinary couples.
People knew very little about Li Yihan's lover. They only knew that the other party was a man. Besides that, no one knew what his surname was, what his job was or how he looked. There were rumours that Li Yihan's lover was his adopted son and that they have violated social ethics but as soon as this rumour came out, it was shot down by many businessmen as fake news and was soon forgotten.
Li Yihan lived until a very old age, but he unfortunately couldn't last a little longer. Two years after his death, same-sex marriage was legalised, but this famous and talented gay businessman was unable to get a marriage certificate with his lover.
The outsiders felt that it was such a pity, but they were just being too involved with other people's business. Li Yihan himself didn't care about getting a certificate with Qi Yuan. He was just a little regretful; he should've gotten to know Qi Yuan earlier instead of just donating money. If he got to know him earlier, he would've been able to accompany Qi Yuan longer instead of leaving him behind, making him spend his remaining years alone.
But this worry of his was unnecessary. Chi Zhao naturally wouldn't stay in a world without him. After Li Yihan was buried, Chi Zhao asked the system to shield him from the pain and then sat next to Li Yihan's gravestone, closed his eyes and fired a shot at himself.
He didn't do it deliberately to make it so sad, but there were only a few options for suicide. The others were mostly difficult to deal with and dying here made it convenient for the others as they could just check it and bury his body directly afterwards.
Chi Zhao thought he was being very considerate but what he didn't know was that this act of his caused a sensation to ripple through the world. In the end, he and Li Yihan became a beautiful love story passed down through generations for many, many years.
When the world transfer once again started, the system used this opportunity to make a few changes to Chi Zhao. It filtered out all his emotional attachments for the previous world and carefully stored them aside.
Chi Zhao had no knowledge of this. He still had the memories but his feelings had faded significantly. He still remembered that he loved Li Yihan very much and everything they had done together. Technically speaking, Li Yihan had only been dead for a few days. He should be sad but somehow, he was very calm.
Chi Zhao thought it was because his mental fortitude was good, so he didn't think much of it.
Moreover, he didn't have the chance to think about it.
After lying on the ground retching for a long time, Chi Zhao looked up with a sickly expression, "You big liar. Didn't you say that only the first world would be uncomfortable?!"
[Yes I did. See how you haven't vomited anything out? This is an improvement.]
Chi Zhao had no energy to argue with the system "Give me the information."
[Okies.]
Hah. Chi Zhao's expression remained indifferent and cold.
What was the use of acting cute? Even acting cute cannot hide the systems dastardly ways.
This is an interstellar world. The role Chi Zhao will act as is called Shao Ze'an, the second young master of the famous Shao Family.
This second young master is quite well-behaved and far less dark-hearted than Qi Yuan in the first world, but what he did was much worse.
Shao Ze'an was a rich second generation and also a second-generation government official. Having just come of age and not yet graduated from college, he enjoys having fun and doesn't like attending class. When he should be in class, he wouldn't obediently stay and would always go out to play. Together with a few other rich second generation degenerates who also gathered a group of their friends, the dozen or so people hired a starship and directly went from the main empire to the vicinity of the Death Galaxy.
The Death Galaxy isn't a river. It is in fact an extremely vast planetary belt consisting of countless wormholes, blackholes and unknown planets. Ordinary people would die when they go there so it was given the name Death Galaxy. These people came over to play but they were unexpectedly caught by Empire rebels the moment they arrived. It just happened that an admiral of the Empire was fighting against the rebels there and the moment they were taken as hostages, the admiral was put into a difficult position.
Please read this from kk translates
The rebels used the hostages to order the admiral to come alone before they would release them. In order to save them, the admiral made the decision to enter the rebel's starship alone. The rebels however had no intentions in the first place to release the hostages while the admiral also had no intentions to let the rebels go. Very soon, a large battle started. The admiral killed nearly a hundred rebels by himself and he then escorted the hostages back to safety.
But at this moment, the admiral noticed that something wasn't right. Those rebels had called for reinforcements and he had no choice but to stay and continue fighting the fierce battle. At the very end, he was able to escape carrying serious injuries.
As for Shao Ze'an this hapless guy, he was so unlucky, he was accidentally injured during the fight between the two parties. None of those hostages remembered that there was a friend of theirs who hadn't escaped, and all fled without looking back. In the end, he was discovered by the rebels and brought back to their base.
There was someone in the rebel army who had once lived in the main star of the Empire before. He immediately recognised him as the second young master of the Shao Family so they didn't kill him but killing him was probably a better outcome. Instead, they had two devices implanted into Shao Ze'an's body; one in his arm and one in his ear. The one in the arm could detect whether he was lying, and it also carried electricity. If he was disobedient, no matter how many light years away they are, just a press of a button can electrocute him into convulsions. The one in his ear was like a eavesdropping device. Anything Shao Ze'an heard; they could also hear. They could use this device to order Shao Ze'an around and can even control him in an instant so that he can't play any little tricks.
Each of these two devices contained 0.01mg of poison. Despite such a small amount, it can cause instant death the moment it is injected. With this, he couldn't ask for help even if he wanted to. As long as the rebels in the Death Galaxy feels that something wasn't right, they could immediately kill him.
Shao Ze'an was left with two options; to die now or to betray the country. He chose the second one. Because of his identity, he was able to easily access the Empire's secrets. And when the Shao Family later discovered that Shao Ze'an was almost unable to return alive because the admiral wasn't able to save him in time, they were very angry. Just as they were about to complain about it to the Emperor, Shao Ze'an received an order to marry the admiral using any means possible.
And so, Shao Ze'an used the pressure from his family's background to forcefully marry the admiral and take up the identity of the admiral's wife. With this he once again obtained a lot of information. The Emperor's army was defeated steadily and consequently, the common people could no longer live in peace and many people lost their lives. When the admiral led his army to fight against these rebels, because of Shao Ze'an's insider information, the army was almost completely wiped out. When he finally discovered that Shao Ze'an was the undercover spy, Shao Ze'an fled in fear but was soon injected with the poison when the rebels realised that he was discovered.
The unmanned spaceship crashed into a meteorite leaving no bones or flesh behind. The admiral vented out his anger on those rebels. After another six years, he was finally able to take them down. In the process of taking them, a young officer who had been staying by his side as his military adviser helped ease the wounds in his heart. With the end of the war, the admiral retired and together they naturally progressed into marriage.
The admiral led a happy life while Shao Ze'an's name was also successfully associated with the word traitor for thousands of years.
Chi Zhao: "...…."
Although the original owner was very miserable, it was still hard for him to feel any sympathy for him.
He asked the system, "What part of the plot is it now?"
[You will know if you look up.]
When Chi Zhao came to this world, he had retched a few times and later laid on the ground to read through the world's information. Now that he raised his head to look up, he realised that he was surrounded by dead bodies. All had died very miserably and the starship was swaying around dangerously. It probably wouldn't be able to last very long.
Chi Zhao's eyes moved around very quickly. After a second, he moved his gaze back again.
Compared to the other dead bodies, this dead body before him was too handsome and the clothes he wore was different from the others. There was a hole in the clothes by his waist and fresh blood was still flowing out at this very moment. Chi Zhao looked at the man suspiciously, "This man...."
[Yes, he is the admiral. Louis West.]
Chi Zhao: "....."
Please read this from kk translates
"Didn't you say that he escaped with serious injuries?? How could he die here?!"
[He's not dead! He's still alive. There was just a small accident and he got poisoned so he is currently in a state of shock. But the third wave of reinforcements are about to arrive. If this goes on, he might be a goner.]
Chi Zhao was horrified, "Then how can you be so calm?! The protagonist is about to die. If he dies, who am I supposed to slag??"
[Aren't you still here? He has a pure mecha on him. Only those with S-level spiritual powers can activate it but he is currently in shock and can't do that so he can't escape. You can just activate the mech for him and kick him out.]
"...…."
He's an admiral. Would it really be okay acting so simply and crudely?
But there was no time to think about those things. Chi Zhao hurried over and followed the systems instructions. He undid Louis's top, found a ring-like thing in his shirt and wished really hard for it to be activated.
The black ring immediately lit up. After Chi Zhao stuffed the mecha back into Louis's arms, the system suddenly cried out.
[Host, a sneak attack!]
As a conditioned reflex, Chi Zhao turned around. A rebel who had not died yet was holding a particle cannon and pointing it in his direction. Chi Zhao instantly flew over and kicked the muzzle aside, causing it to blast a hole through the ship wall instead. The moment the hole appeared; Chi Zhao had trouble breathing. He picked up a weapon and smashed it onto that rebel's head, knocking him unconscious before turning back around, picking Louis up with much difficulty and dragging him over to the hole. Let alone kicking him out, he didn't even have the strength to push him. He felt like he was about to suffocate any moment.
Everyone here was wearing protective clothing. Chi Zhao temporarily placed Louis down, took off a mask from a body next to him, put it on and took a few deep breaths before supporting Louis up again.
"Stop there!"
The third wave of reinforcements had arrived. Anxious, Chi Zhao pushed the admiral out the hole like he was pushing a sack of potatoes. When he was done, he stood up and spread open both his arms to block the hole from the rebels whilst staring them down.
Chi Zhao was resolute. In fact, he was thinking inside that because he had already failed one world, no matter what he will not let the plot collapse in this world. If anyone dares to chase after his target, they will need to get through him first!
System: "...…." The host has become obsessed. This should be a good thing.
The eyes of one human and one system stared fixatedly at the rebel reinforcements. No one noticed Louis open his eyes slightly. He tried to see Chi Zhao's back view, but his physical state was too weak and the moment he left the ship, his mecha had turned into its large form, quickly wrapping around him and taking him back to the base.
