Ye Wei looked at the photo and was flustered. The fact that they were married was still foreign to her and she could not find any familiarity. She looked at the photo for a long time, but she didn’t know what to say. It seemed like that was the ultimate evidence.

‘But… Why do I still feel that something is wrong?’ Ye Wei thought to herself. What exactly was wrong? To be fair, it was absolutely a beautiful photo, which was in line with the definition of beauty and happiness. No matter who saw it, they would feel that they were a perfect couple. The man was extremely eminent while the woman was beautiful. However, it was not the case if the main lead was herself.

“Is this an edited photo?” Ye Wei was taken by surprise and asked. Mo Jue was looking at her perfect side profile with great interest and his face turned green when he heard her question. He punched his fist on the table severely, as if Ye Wei had done something unforgivable to him.

Ye Wei was frightened. She asked, “Are you angry or just bluffing?”

This time, Mo Jue had even developed the thought to kill her. He turned over and pressed against her body using his and kissed her annoying little mouth to shut her up. ‘This woman is so damn sharp, smart, and sensitive. Why didn’t I make her an idiot then?’ What she said was right. He was really angry and a little bluffing.

Ye Wei was attacked by surprise again. This time, she had stronger feelings than what she felt in the atrium in the morning. He sucked the tip of her tongue and bit on it lightly. She was in pain and wanted to push him away, but she was held tighter by him. He kissed her harder and passed on his anger perfectly to her. Although she didn’t know him well, she knew that he was an extremely wild beast. It was better not to provoke him.

Hence, Ye Wei let him indulge in her sweetness. In fact, she had to admit that she liked Mo Jue’s kiss.

She just didn’t want to admit it to strike an attitude on purpose. Maybe women were all the same. The more men treated them nicely, the more they would strike an attitude. What’s more, she knew nothing about him at present. Naturally, she wouldn’t be silly and pounce on him on impulse.

When Mo Jue had kissed enough, he then released her, letting her breathe properly. The taste of wasabi still lingered between their lips and teeth. Ye Wei’s eyes were bright and she looked at him silently. Mo Jue said flatly, “Don’t say things that would make me angry. I have many ways to shut you up.”

Ye Wei pouted and waved the photo in her hand. “When was this taken?”

Mo Jue placed both of his hands on the sides of her chair, leaned over, trapped her between him and the back of the chair, and chuckled. “We just got married.”

“Then, how long have we known each other?”

“Three years!” Mo Jue’s expression did not change and lied to her calmly. His purple eyes were full of absolute sincerity. One would never think that he was lying. Ye Wei had been looking into his eyes as the eyes could tell everything, but she couldn’t tell if he was lying.

She looked at the photo again and concluded. “Why don’t I feel familiar with you? Are you really not lying to me?”

“Ye Wei!” Mo Jue’s voice sounded like it came out of his teeth. He was clearly gnashing his teeth. Did he not have enough sincerity? Why wouldn’t she believe him?

Ye Wei surrendered and signaled him not to be agitated. Later, she realized that his lips were only two inches away from her lips. His face was right in front of her eyes. She couldn’t help leaning back and clinging to the back of the chair tightly. She pointed toward the back with her slender fingers. “Are you used to speaking so close to others?”

She had a strong feeling that if he was so close to someone else, that person might have been killed within seconds and had a heart attack. His face was so beautiful that it could make people cry. How could he be so perfect?

Because he was so perfect, she felt that everything was unreal.

Mo Jue grunted and squinted at her, as if he was warning her. Ye Wei was obedient and stretched out her hand to push him to sit on the chair next to her. She heaved a long sigh of relief. It was better to keep a little distance.

Mo Jue asked, “Did you say that you are not familiar with me at all?”

She thought that telling the truth might make him mad again, but she seemed to like watching him mad, and it made her happy. “Yes, it feels foreign to me, not familiar at all.”

As expected, his face sank again, but Ye Wei’s heart was full of joy. She had gotten a clear idea of how Mo Jue was like. He had little patience with her and was easily infuriated. He had only behaved like that toward her, and she was inexplicably fond of provoking him, which seemed to be an instinctive reaction. Anyway, he wouldn’t really teach her a lesson even if he was angry. The most he could do was to lose his temper and feel indignant on his own.

“Then, who are you familiar with?”

“I don’t know!” Ye Wei replied. She was not familiar with herself, let alone with others.

Mo Jue sneered. “It’s okay. We can familiarize ourselves with each other. Anyway, I’m the only person you remember now.”

He was a little happy about it and even yearned for Ye Wei to remember nobody except him, be with him forever, depend on him, receive his love, and fight with him. This was also a kind of happiness.

He did not ask for much.

Ye Wei raised her hand weakly and pointed out his mistake. “You’re wrong. I remember your brother.”

Mo Jue grabbed her hair and pretended to strangle her neck. Ye Wei laughed. She had just barely managed to avoid being abused by him. She asked, “Do I have any other family members?”

“No, you are an orphan,” Mo Jue said calmly.

Ye Wei raised her eyebrows. If she guessed correctly, she might really be an orphan as the concept of family was very foreign to her. She had no impression of her mother or father at all.

“Mo Jue, are you sure that I don’t have a family? Other than my parents, I should have other relatives. I can’t possibly be born out of a rock.”

“I don’t know. When I met you, you were already an orphan.”

“…Oh.” Ye Wei pursed her lips and didn’t probe further. She asked, “What did I do for a living in the past?”

She remembered how she was familiar with the speaker identification device and password lock on his door and felt a little uneasy. Mo Jue said flatly, “A killer.”

Ye Wei raised her eyebrows and looked at Mo Jue deeply. She felt that this was true because her intuition and sharpness were really different from others. Other than being a killer or a special agent, she couldn’t think of anything else that she could have done.

She touched the calluses on her fingers and went silent.

“Being a killer is not disgraceful,” Mo Jue said. There were only a few killers who could reach her level in the world, and no one was better than her in that field.

“Aren’t you afraid that I would get up in the middle of the night and kill you?” Ye Wei raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile.

“It’s not the first time that you want to kill me,” Mo Jue calmly replied. He had prepared the answer for a long time and was waiting for her to ask. He knew that he could not lie to Ye Wei entirely as she would be suspicious. He had to tell her some truths and some lies for her to believe it.

Ye Wei bit her lip. What did he mean by ‘not the first time’?

Suddenly, she gave up on wanting to know why and asked curiously, “Am I the kind of killer who kills without blinking?”

“In theory, yes,” Mo Jue replied carefully. Even if Ye Wei had lost her memory, she was not a little timid white rabbit. He didn’t have to worry that he would hurt her feelings.

“I thought that I would come to kill you because you deserved it.” Ye Wei raised her eyebrows and looked at Mo Jue. He had thought that she would ask him why she wanted to kill him, but she gave such an unexpected response that he was so angry that he became breathless.

Ye Wei said, “What are you staring at me for? I don’t think you are a good man. You must be a gangster. Killing you means society would have one less bad guy.”

Mo Jue slapped her on the back of her head and pretended to beat her. Ye Wei smiled. Mo Jue said, “I’m not a gangster of the underworld. I’m the Mafia godfather.”

‘Underworld, hmmph! How insulting. The level between the international mafia gangs and the Mafia had a huge difference. How dare she compare the international mafia gangs to the Mafia?’

Ye Wei was stunned and she started to feel nervous and a little pain in her chest. The Mafia, Mafia… She calmed down and thought carefully with her eyes closed. She was familiar with the term, even a little resistant to it.

Was it really because she had killed him before?

Ye Wei had no clue. Mo Jue frowned in doubt when he saw Ye Wei keep quiet. Had she regained her memory? Doctor Claire said that she would never remember them again as her memories had long been gone. It was different from the ordinary amnesia and the chance of recovery was zero.

However, he was still worried that she would recover and leave him.

It would be a heavy blow for someone to lose something so precious to them. He didn’t want to experience it again. The fact that he washed away her memory meant that he wanted her to accompany him and not go anywhere else.

“What happened?”

“Nothing. I suddenly thought that if I was ordered to kill you, how did I end up marrying you?” Ye Wei told him truthfully. What did she mean by ‘end up’? Mo Jue was at her tone.

Was it disgraceful to marry him?

“Ye Wei!” Mo Jue was furious.

Ye Wei was calm. “What did I say wrongly?”

“Shut up!” Mo Jue couldn’t help but reprimand her. He didn’t even have the desire to look at her anymore. He had prepared a perfect plan to tell her why she came to kill him and why they got married. He had waited for her to ask, but she didn’t mention a word about it and even imagined an answer from her own understanding.

It had to be said that Mo Jue was very depressed. The plan that he had thought hard about for a long time had become totally useless.
