Meng Lianying’s tears fell down her cheeks after Mo Jue pushed Mo Ye out. Her resentful gaze was filled with sorrow, as if she was ditched and she was admiring her own sadness.
She felt unwilling.
Meng Lianying curled up her body lightly and hid in the blanket. No one could see her crying face, but they could see her trembling body clearly even though she was covered by a blanket.
The sound of her crying could slowly be heard. First, it was a hoarse crying voice and slowly became wailing. The three nurses did not understand why Miss Meng, who was so pampered, would be crying so sadly. The Mo brothers were still in the corridor and someone wanted to call Big Boss Mo but was stopped by the other person who shook his head and told her not to leave it alone.
Meng Lianying cried for very long. She would never have imagined that Mo Ye would say that they should discuss it another time.
Another time? It might be indefinite!
He had already changed. He was no longer the Mo Ye that doted on her, loved her, and listened to her. He had already suspected her.
They did discuss marriage before during the past five years and Mo Ye was always the one who suggested getting married. He mentioned it twice; once was four years ago when the poison inside her body started to act on her and she almost died. Mo Ye was afraid that she would not be able to live longer and suggested marrying her. He treated her best during that time and never once suspected her. She had just stopped the drug at that time and her body was weak, so she had to lie on the bed most of the time and the two of them did not communicate much. Therefore, there was no chance for her to be exposed or suspected. During the first year, she felt that Mo Ye treated her like his girlfriend.
She did not accept the proposal that time as she was also afraid that she would die soon. She fell in love with Mo Ye at that time and was afraid that her death would be a big blow to Mo Ye. She also did not want to get the title of Mrs. Mo and make Mo Ye sad.
Mo Ye knew what she was thinking and did not force her. The second proposal was one year ago when they were on holiday in Finland. They walked past a church and a couple was having their wedding ceremony. It was a special wedding—a ghost marriage.
The bride passed away in a car accident a day before the wedding, but the groom decided to continue the wedding the next day and married the bride’s soul, continuing the wedding wholeheartedly.
Meng Lianying was touched and cried although it had been years since she last cried. Therefore, Mo Ye suggested getting married so that she did not need to be envious of others. But, she still rejected him.
She was really afraid that Mo Ye would be sad as she knew that she did not have much time left and would not agree to the marriage stubbornly. She was sure that Mo Ye only liked her and it did not matter whether or not they married.
Therefore, they just kept dragging and Mo Ye did not talk about marriage anymore. The two of them just lived together. Actually, Mo Ye was too ambitious for the past five years and had a lot of strategies with regard to Louis. He also secretly trained his own subordinates without anyone knowing. He had spent a lot of effort on it and was always busy, so it was rare for them to meet. She wanted to work with him to fulfill his wish, but her body did not allow her to do so.
She really wanted to be Mo Ye’s bride but was afraid that he would be hurt even more. She would not have felt the sense of crisis if Eleven did not appear and would still think that this man belonged to her.
Or maybe Mo Ye would only meet Eleven after she died. Then, it would be none of her business.
But, Eleven just appeared like this, reminding her that she had stolen and cheated this man. The five years of happiness had ended and it was time to return him.
She would not be so anxious if it was just Eleven. The problem was that Mo Ye seemed to be interested in Eleven. He knew that she was still around and Eleven was her enemy and did not know Eleven was the one he liked. Despite that, he still became interested in her.
A woman’s instinct was always accurate. She felt heartache whenever she recalled what happened at the beach. It was a focus and possessive streak that Mo Ye had never given her.
Even an outsider like her could feel Mo Ye’s constrained love and hate. It was not obvious but she had been with him for five years and knew him well. She felt thunderstruck and her dream was shattered.
She thought that she wanted to kill Eleven if she had the chance.
She spent five years and couldn’t get what she wanted, yet the woman only spent around ten days to get it. How would she be able to accept this willingly?
Meng Lianying was firmer on letting Eleven die.
It was not fair for Eleven to easily get something that she could not get. Given Mo Ye’s personality, he would definitely shoot someone ten times if the person shot him once. The person would definitely not be able to get away easily.
Maybe it was for her antidote at the start. But, she only wanted to break Eleven and Mo Ye up and did not really liked Mo Ye. Therefore, it did not matter how it started or how the process was.
She thought of marriage…
When she woke up after the surgery, she asked Claire how much longer she had to live. Claire said that if she continued to eat the medicine and keep a calm mind, the toxicity can be contained for a year. She then asked if she was really hopeless and whether they really did get the antidote from Eleven.
Claire said that Eleven’s body was the best test bed, but their hope of getting the antidote would be little since she was gone. However, they managed to save all the research data and he would try his best.
Meng Lianying felt hopeless. In the past, she knew that she would not be able to live for too long, but she was not hopeless and was cheerful. She wanted to seize every day and live happily. But, the appearance of Eleven changed everything.
Claire seemed to notice her desperate emotion and tried to comfort her, saying that she should maintain her attitude in the past. If not, it would only increase the speed of her death.
But, who could teach her how to maintain her past attitude? She did not care anymore.
She wanted to get married and thought that Mo Ye would definitely agree if she raised the topic. But, who knew that Mo Ye would say that they should discuss it next time. She laughed until tears dropped down.
Which boyfriend would say that they should discuss next time when the girlfriend wanted to get married? It was a work attitude and did not seem like they were talking about marriage.
Meng Lianying could not stop crying…
She could not keep his heart, and now she could no longer keep him either?
Mo Ye did not speak at all. They stopped beside the fountain in the hospital. Mo Jue did not disturb him and only asked after a very long time. “Brother, why did you not agree to the marriage? You’ve always hoped that the two of you could get married.”
“How could I marry her under such circumstances?” Mo Ye asked him back coldly and looked at Mo Jue while raising his eyebrows. “If it was you, would you agree to the marriage under such circumstances?”
“I don’t care what circumstances it is, I will only think of whether or not I want to marry,” Mo Jue replied. He was someone that would not be affected by his surroundings and only cared about his own thoughts.
“You make it sound easy.” Mo Ye’s face darkened, and his quiet self looked scary. Mo Jue was not afraid of him and played with his golden ring.
“Little Jue, do you think I should marry her?”
“Why ask me if you don’t want to marry her?” Mo Jue replied coldly and looked up at his brother. He realized that Mo Ye’s expression did not look good. He shrugged. He was just saying the truth anyway.
Mo Ye smiled lightly and leaned back while supporting his chin with one hand. He immediately looked a few years younger as this was unlike his usual sinister look. “It is so weird. Last time, when I wanted to get married, she did not want to. Now, she wanted to but I don’t want to.”
“People will change,” Mo Jue said with glitter in his purple eyes.
“It’s not that I’ve changed, but it is obvious there is an ulterior motive in Lianling being eager to get married.” Mo Ye rubbed his brows.
Mo Jue asked, “Brother, don’t you hate Eleven?”
“Hate her?” Mo Ye was at a loss.
“She shot you a few times.”
“And then?” Mo Ye continued to be at a loss.
Mo Jue rolled his eyes at Mo Ye. “What else? You would have crushed the person into pieces if it was someone else.”
“What are you trying to say?”
“What do you want to hear?”
“Little Jue!” Mo Ye did not like it when Mo Jue beat around the bush with him. He coughed solemnly, as if giving Mo Jue a warning.
“Brother, do you like Eleven?”
“No way!” Mo Ye denied without even thinking. How would it be possible for him to like Eleven? Mo Ye’s face instantly went dark and he clenched his fist tightly.
If he liked her, why would he torture her ruthlessly? If he admitted that he liked her, how would he explain how he treated her in the past? It was impossible. He could not like her!
“When you were in City A last time, I already felt that…”
“Shut up! Stop talking about it!” Mo Jue wanted to say something, but Mo Ye stopped him coldly. Mo Jue did not intend to go against him and decided to keep quiet. But, he felt unwilling and said again, “I wonder where Beauty Mom is.”
Mo Ye’s face changed and seemed flustered. He stared at Mo Jue and asked. “What do you want to do?”
“Nothing, I was just thinking that I should let Beauty mum know that you are injured.” Mo Jue acted as if he was innocent and had a filial look. His tone sounded normal and it was very comedic to say such a thing with a cold attitude.
“Don’t you dare!” Mo Ye squeezed out these few words from his mouth. If he was really angry, his usual emotionless face looked like an ice mountain and was very scary. But, now that he looked fierce, he actually lost his dignified manner and seemed like he was just scaring children. “I will kill you if you dare to tell mom.”
“Brother, I grew up being scare by you.” Mo Jue threw out this sentence monotonously and Mo Ye helpless. “These are things of the past yet you still remember. You’re so calculative.”
“I have to remember, if not I would have forgotten how Beauty mum looks like.” Mo Jue said.
“Hmmph, who knows where she is.” Mo Ye said and suddenly thought of something. “Little Jue, you dare to make fun of me now, do you know where mom is?”
Mo Jue shook his head. “It has been… five years since the last time I met her.”
“…that time when I was injured?”
Mo Jue nodded and Mo Ye’s face turned greened and cursed. Mo Jue heard him and he curled up the corner of his lips happily. Mo Ye raised his arm and slapped Mo Jue. “You better shut up and not tell her about it, do you hear me?”
“I don’t know where she lives.”
“But she knows where we live. If you dare to tell her that I’m injured, I will let Ye Wei pay back Lianling one shot.” Mo Ye was a man of his words and Mo Jue was finally afraid of him.
Mo Jue waved his hands lazily. “I got it.”
Mo Jue calmed down for a while and asked, “Brother, don’t you want to meet her?”
“I want to.”
“Why didn’t you tell her?”
“Why do I have to tell her when I’m injured?” Mo Ye asked as he gritted his teeth. As a son, he did not want his mom to see him in such a bad state.
“…” Mo Jue took a side glance at Mo Ye.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore.” Mo Ye felt that it was stupid for two big men to discuss their image as a son, so they decided to stop talking about it. “You go back and make a plan so that we can leave this island as soon as possible.”
Mo Jue became more serious when talking about this. “I got it.”
Mo Ye’s face darkened and looked sinister. “Little Jue, help me with another thing. Find out about the incident where I lost my vision five years ago.”
“Didn’t you check it before?” Mo Jue was puzzled. “What’s wrong?”
“I’ve checked before but the people had died and there was no evidence, so everything became a mystery. You go and check again and don’t let anyone find out. I don’t believe that everyone in Eastern Europe that time had died.” Mo Ye’s voice sounded cold.
“Are you suspecting something?” Mo Jue asked sharply.
Mo Ye shook his head. “No, it’s just that my instinct tells me there are things I don’t know about. It’s alright to spend some time to check again.”
“Okay, but I might need some time. I have to settle our plans to leave first and have to avoid being found out by Jason and Ye Chen.”
“Sure. It’s okay to check later as long as we get things clear.” Mo Ye was not in a hurry as he had injured his legs and needed some time to recover. It was just that he had a question in his mind and it was like silk circling him, making him feel uncomfortable.
Mo Jue nodded and wanted to leave, but Mo Ye stopped him and slowly said, “Little Jue, go check where Eleven and Ye Wei were during that period of time five years ago.
Mo Jue raised his eyebrows. “Why?”
He could understand why he had to check about Mo Ye, but why did he have to check about Eleven and Ye Wei? Mo Jue was puzzled.
“Why do you have so much nonsense to say? Just do as I say.” Mo Jue stared at him unhappily. “Little Jue, I’ve realized that you’ve become more long-winded lately. Whom did you learn it from?”
Only a fool would not understand that Mo Ye was scolding him. Mo Jue was smart and did not reply, in case Mo Ye had something against Ye Wei. He quickly fled…
