A title?
Eleven paused in her heart and seemed a little lost as though she had no idea what he was saying. Her lost look was especially adorable. Mo Ye buried his head in her neck, his muffled laughter ringing by her ear, making her blush.
How could he be so shameless?
She knew very well she was not his match and slightly panicked before she tried to calm down. “I do not know what you are saying,” she said with a straight face.
Mo Ye was not angry. He hugged her in a doting manner and ran his slightly calloused hands around her ear and gently laughed. He seemed to enjoy this lazy yet somewhat intimate atmosphere. Eleven was most afraid of people touching her ear because it was somewhat itchy. As said person was Mo Ye, she felt it even more and tried to hold his hand in a panic so that he would not anyhow run his hands around her.
“My Eleven is so smart to the point she doesn’t know what I am saying?” Mo Ye propped himself up and smiled while looking at her. He planted his warm lips on her face. Her long eyelashes ran past his lips as though they gently wafted past his heart, stirring his heart. He struggled to control the slightly numbing feeling his body felt. Mo Ye felt as though his heart was immersed in warm chocolate.
Eleven looked at him, and he did not allow her to look away, so she could only look at him. He said, “What are you afraid of? Say it and I’ll resolve it.”
“How are you going to resolve it? Kill everybody?” Eleven raised her eyebrows. She understood him especially well. While people saw him as a sentimental fool in love who loved to smile, he embodied the sunshine teenager whose means she never dared to learn.
“Eleven really understands me.” Mo Ye laughed as he continued her statement. A few years of being in the grind made him no more that hot-blooded young man he was back then. He became stable and calm with everything in his grasp. Only she was his wild card.
His thoughts were simple. He wanted her pure heart and was willing to endure the wait, however long she made him wait. As long as she would make up her mind, he was willing to do anything for her.
This was the first time he went to such extents for a person in his whole life. He was no saint. Although he was not one to solely give, he was willing to give her his heart in exchange for hers.
It was not too much to ask for, and he had all the time in the world to gradually make amends for what he owed her.
“Mo Ye, you…” Eleven hesitated and gritted her teeth. “Chu Li and Jason are of the opinion you were behind it all. I can’t… forsake them for you.”
It was just like how Mo Ye would give up Mo Jue for want of a woman.
They were the closest to them.
The misunderstanding soured their relations, and she did not want to have too much contact with him during such a sensitive period. If she tried to explain to Chu Li, chances were that Chu Li would think she was trying to defend Mo Ye and would not buy her explanation.
Well, anybody with the slightest sense of discernment would not believe that. After all, what they did before did not allow them to trust people.
“Shall I walk up to them and ask for your hand? I could also…”
“What nonsense are you spouting?” Eleven stared at him. He was getting more and more illogical. If he dared to go to London, Chu Li and company would make mincemeat out of him. Besides…
This moment was plain unsuitable.
Mo Ye looked at her deeply and slowly said, “I finally understand why Little Jue does not feel safe around Ye Wei. He always has this unwillingness and would even go as far as to wipe her memories. He’s really…”
It was only now that he could understand this feeling.
Speaking of Mo Jue and Ye Wei, Eleven frowned and sat up in a panic. Given how weak Ye Wei was and Mo Jue’s temper, looking for the latter would undoubtedly start a fight. While that did not mean that he would hit Ye Wei, both of them were tough characters. While Mo Jue used to love Ye Wei, they fought extremely hard and would not hold back. It was as though winning the fight meant conquering Ye Wei.
How would he know that Ye Wei was frail and unable to endure his punches? She grabbed Mo Ye’s sleeve in a panic and asked, “Can you contact Mo Jue?”
Mo Ye frowned. “What’s happened?”
“He’s nuts, isn’t he? What’s he going to do in Oman? Even Wei Wei is following him, and if they get into a fight…” Eleven sounded a little worried. “Can you contact him?”
“Do you mean Ye Wei? Are you afraid they will get into a scuffle? The loser is not a given.” Mo Ye raised his eyebrows and shook his head. He was powerless about how much of an idiot Mo Jue could be. His wise-cracking brother was extremely smart but became a total idiot when he ran into Ye Wei.
“You know nothing.” Eleven did not know whether Ye Wei would allow Mo Jue to know about the innocent child, and she hence had no plans to tell Mo Ye anything. Telling Mo Ye was akin to telling Mo Jue. “Wei Wei was extremely sick and she had yet to recover. Given the chaos and danger in Oman, along with Mo Jue’s character, Wei Wei will be in trouble…”
“I can’t contact him,” Mo Ye plainly said. He was telling the truth and did not have to lie to Eleven. Mo Jue left on impulse and turned off all means of communications lest he be pestered.
Eleven felt her heart sink. Wei Wei…
“Eleven, I see that you are one who changes the conversation topics too.” Mo Ye propped his chin and looked at her with a seeming smile “Let’s talk about us now. You’ve digressed too much. Come back to the topic. Let’s talk about how we should go about addressing each other.”
He seemed to mean that she wouldn’t be stepping out of the house if that wasn’t cut and done today.
“I didn’t.” Eleven rebutted. She was really concerned about Ye Wei. Mo Ye was not bothered because he would pull off all he could to achieve his goals. He must force Eleven to commit today.
She, given her character of few words, would absolutely never go back on her word.
He would have to be an idiot to allow such a wonderful opportunity to pass by.
Mo Ye put his head next to her shoulders and hugged her before laughing and saying, “You should just agree because I’m so earnest. Is that so challenging?”
“Were you now?” All she saw were his tricks that were out to deceive her.
“I’m always earnest,” Mo Ye replied. He was such an upright gentleman.
Eleven looked to the side to see his countenance and felt her heartbeat pick up slightly. She, having spent time with Ye Wei, caught on some of Ye Wei’s penchant for appearance. She looked at his face that was so perfect that she could not help but recall a joke from before. A smile pulled at the corners of her lips.
Mo Ye rejoiced in his heart and smiled.
It seemed that they would be able to talk about their issues at hand. He was starting to have some good vibes about Ye Wei, and she thankfully had her expectations when it came to looks. He was lucky to have good looks.
Eleven suddenly recalled a question and asked him, “What about Meng Lianying?”
