Chapter 622: Untitled

The two of them avoided the crowds and went to the small quiet woods behind the hospital for a stroll. There were not many people here, save two to three elderly who were wheelchair-bound, of which one of them was enjoying the fresh air.

Although the two of them had not met in a long time and had much to tell each other, it was more often Mo Ye who was telling Eleven how life had been and about anything significant. Eleven, however, really wanted to know how Mo Jue’s injuries were.

She was not at ease until Mo Ye said it.

She could tell that while Ye Wei seemed indifferent about Mo Jue’s fate, things were not what they seemed.

“Why doesn’t she want to personally visit Little Jue?” Mo Ye flatly asked. As Eleven sided with Ye Wei, Mo Ye would naturally side with Mo Jue. That was human nature. By his perception, Ye Wei shooting Mo Jue on impulse was already reckless enough on her part. With the misunderstanding cleared, it was clearly her fault, yet why did she still avoid him? She should look for Mo Jue and explain and admit she was at fault. Given how Mo Jue was head over heels for her, she could get all coquettish and everything about Mo Jue’s injury would have passed.

Her unwillingness to come would lead to Mo Jue eventually hating her!

Ye Wei, in his opinion, was utterly willful!

Eleven slightly frowned as she looked at the elderly who slowly strolled in the distance. She deeply pondered about how clearing the misunderstanding did not translate into how nothing had happened. Wei Wei did not even smile. How could she even come and see Mo Jue…

And…

“Eleven, do not tell him about the child,” Ye Wei looked at her and said with decisiveness and warning. She knew that Eleven was in frequent contact with Mo Ye and knew that they talked about anything. When she became pregnant and eventually miscarried, Eleven had yet to tell Mo Ye that in private.

As telling Mo Ye was akin to telling Mo Jue, she did not allow her to tell Mo Ye about it.

She did want to tell Mo Ye, but she could not fathom Ye Wei’s thoughts and did not want to make a private decision because she honored Ye Wei’s decision above all. While she did not understand why she wanted to do this, she still decided against telling Mo Ye.

“Wei Wei has yet to significantly recover, and she can’t be exposed to wind.” Eleven found an excuse. Mo Ye’s face turned cold as he knew she was lying. But he did not call her out on it. If he did, the two of them would end up arguing.

He did not want to get into an argument with Eleven.

Once Eleven knew that Mo Jue was fine, she did not intend to hang around in the hospital for long because she was still worried about Ye Wei and did not want her to be alone for too long. As she only had a few words with Mo Ye before she left, Mo Ye was clearly slightly displeased.

“She’s not a child, so why are you watching over her 24/7?”

“You’ll never understand,” Eleven said. “While I do not quite know how to explain it to you, let’s just stop interfering in Ye Wei and Mo Jue’s affairs. Once Mo Jue is fine, he can do whatever he wishes. As for Wei Wei, I’m afraid you’ll never see her again.”

“Eleven, you know Mo Jue’s character. Ye Wei doesn’t want to see him? You and Ye Wei know better than anybody else what he is capable of when he flips. If this unresolved burden gets even worse, won’t you only stop when we are all ruined?” Mo Ye questioned without holding back his displeasure on his handsome face.

Eleven had a solemn look and coldly laughed before saying, “Are you blaming Wei Wei now? She is not in the wrong, and despite whatever she did, she did not disappoint Mo Jue. If… If it weren’t for the Mafia, all these would never have happened.”

“Eleven, like I said before, we were miles away and did not know anything that happened. Eleven, please be fair toward me. Nobody wished for this to happen.” Mo Ye was slightly angry. As no man was an omnipresent and omnipotent god, Mo Jue and he would never be able to know, let alone stop, what people were up to when they were not at the headquarters.

“I do not want to talk to you about these anymore,” Eleven coldly replied with increasing displeasure, sounding worse. They were always avoiding problems that would leave them uneasy as long as they were never resolved.

“Eleven…” Mo Ye frowned. “Give me a little time. I will give you an explanation of what happened.”

As Mo Ye made his promises, things happened and he never had the time to see to all these problems. Once he returned from the island, he first thought about how to get Eleven over, and then something happened to Mo Jue and he had been in Muscat all along. It would be a while after Mo Jue was fine before he could investigate what was at hand in peace.

Birmingham had some evidence for now, but they were insufficient to imply guilt. He did not act for fear of acting rashly and alerting the enemy. Things like this couldn’t happen anymore.

“That’s your internal problems that you have to see to. I might have to take Wei Wei back,” Eleven said and took a step back.

“Eleven, what about us?”

“Didn’t you say that you would be willing to wait for me however long it may take?” Eleven asked in return as she looked at him quietly. Her ice-cold gaze was still as cold and mocking.

Mo Ye sighed at how she had left him speechless. He, however much unwilling, could only agree.

But…

“Little Jue will flip!” he slowly said. He knew better than anybody Mo Jue’s character. While he already hated Ye Wei, her avoiding him and the hatred in him would only lead him to pull off something insane. “Eleven, please convince Ye Wei to see Little Jue. It’s never too late to leave. As long as you are around, nobody can stop Ye Wei from leaving.”

“I’ll tell her that,” Eleven said through gritted teeth. It was afraid they would never know when they would meet again.

Mo Ye suddenly hugged her, already missing her before she left.

“How long would you be away this time?”

“I don’t know.”

Mo Ye paused and held her hands before gently kissing her at the corners of her lips. While Eleven seemed extremely healthy as though nothing happened to her, he never forgot Doctor Claire’s words that she would not have long to live.

Unless one could find the antidote that would restore her body.

Her mutated body would hollow her of all her life, and it was something he was consistently unhappy about. “Is your body… still alright?”

Eleven frowned and Mo Ye felt his heart sink. “Still no way out despite Bai Ye’s excellent medical skills?”

“Uh, yes, there is no way out.” Nobody had a way out for her body. Although Old Witch and Bai Ye had done what they could and said they were confident, one could never tell whether anything could happen along the way.

She did not want people to hope in the unknown.

Mo Ye suddenly held her hand and said, “If there is an antidote, would Bai Ye be able to develop a cure for you?”

“I don’t know. The toxin is a long-lost formula, and it’s even more impossible to formulate the antidote.”

“There must be a way,” Mo Ye solemnly said. Meng Lianying looked no different from before. He had done his math and knew she did not have much longer to live. With half a year having passed, she was about to reach her one year limit, but she still seemed so healthy. Could she… have the antidote?

This was the doubt he had long harbored.
