The entrance of the Mafia headquarters’ underground laboratory was in the research center behind the intelligence division. They went past the empty hall and walked in from the side door and went all the way to the basement. There were a glass corridor and a password-sensor door. Ye Wei visited the place once with Mo Jue and remembered the password. Therefore, she easily opened the door, and there was another lift that brought them straight to the laboratory.

The underground laboratory was big like a huge plaza. It was originally the weapon and drug development center of the Mafia, but it became very big after the people had evacuated the place. There were isolated research rooms on all sides, which were well-equipped.

Eleven looked around and said, “This place seems like the drugs and weapon development center.”

But, it was not as big as that of the Top Terrorist Organization. They made money from weapons and provided all the services from research to production and trade. But, the Mafia’s core interest was not in weapons.

They researched weapons here, but it seemed like they only did the design. Even if it were drugs, they only provided the recipes and not the final products.

“I came here twice and was not really interested in it. But, they’ve recently developed some really powerful drugs. It has cheap production cost but the result is really good and they are selling it at a high price. The drug dealers in the Middle East are going crazy, trying to snatch the products as the profit margin is high.” Ye Wei smiled. Any industry with high risk was definitely because of the high profit. Although smuggling of drugs seemed like an illegal business in the eyes of normal people, they did not think so. They only sold drugs but did not take drugs. It was only a method to earn money to them, and it was not unethical to them.

There would be people selling even if they did not, and it was the same logic as arms smuggling.

Eleven raised her eyebrows. “Is it a nerve-related drug?”

“Yes.”

“I’ve heard about it. No wonder the arms trade has been doing badly recently. The mafia in the Middle East does drugs business other than arms smuggling. The Mafia might not have money to smuggle arms if they sign a deal. Chu Li was still researching the market there last time.” Eleven smiled.

“Arms and drugs are things that the Mafia cannot live without. The Mafia has taken up half the drugs market,” Ye Wei said. Cloud had done a research on it last time and the Mafia had a sixty percent stake in the drug market in the Middle East alone. It was extremely scary and she did not know how Mo Ye and Mo Jue managed to gain so much stake in the market so quickly.

Both of them walked past a lot of laboratories before reaching the medical room. Ye Wei opened the door and squeezed in with Eleven. Mo Ye was quietly lying on the bed and there was an infusion tube inserted into his body. He did not wear the oxygen mask and his heart rate seemed normal, but he was unconscious.

Eleven could not help but walk up. Ye Wei went to the back and sat on the sofa to rest. He became fairer and skinnier. He had not been under the sun for half a year and his tanned skin and became paler—an unhealthy-looking pale.

His hair grew longer and it seemed like no one had trimmed it for him for the past six months. He had cut his hair shorter before he went to Eastern Europe and it had grown longer now, falling on the pillow.

His face was still delicate and his features looked good. Although he was asleep, he still looked stunning. He had never seen such a good-looking man other than Su Man.

Eleven stared at him without saying anything as she did not know what to say. So many doctors could not wake him up. She was not a doctor in the first place, so there was nothing she could do even if she wanted to.

She simply looked at him. It seemed like she had fulfilled a wish and no longer worried so much about him. Although she was told that Mo Ye was not dead, she felt more secured after she saw for her own eyes that he was safe and still breathing.

She thought that she would be agitated after meeting him. Maybe she would be so agitated that she could not contain herself. Maybe she would remember how she should not forgive him, or maybe she would remember the things between them.

But, there was nothing and she only felt secured.

Maybe when you miss someone, you would think that everything else did not matter as long as the person was safe. At least, he could breathe, and there was a chance of him surviving, which was more important than anything else.

Ye Wei closed her eyes to rest for a while, but she opened her eyes after perceiving Eleven’s silence. She sat on the sofa and saw that Eleven’s back view seemed thin. The length of her smooth hair reached her shoulders. Eleven gave off the feeling that she was neither sad nor happy.

“Why are you not talking?” Ye Wei asked. “Are you shy? Shall we walk around?”

Eleven shook her head. It was because she did not know what to say to Mo Ye. Their relationship was unclear. She fell in love with Mo Ye five years ago and with the Mo Ye who was still Anthony. But, when Mo Ye was Mo Ye, they did not even have the chance to talk properly. It was either he was not too ruthless, or that she hated him too much.

How should she describe the relationship between them? She did not know. Sometimes, she really did not know what to say when she faced Mo Ye.

Maybe she was never a woman that knew how to take the initiative.

“You should speak to him. Maybe he can hear you. I’ve seen many movies and that’s how they act. Although you are not the prince charming, Mo Ye can be counted as a beauty. Actually, I don’t mind you kissing the beauty.” Ye Wei smiled and teased Eleven.

Eleven’s ears became hot and her cheeks went red. Ye Wei was behind her and did not see it. Ye Wei was suddenly curious about something. “Eleven, has Big Boss Mo kissed you before?”

Given Eleven’s personality, Big Boss Mo did not seem to have any chance.

“Wei Wei, shut up.” Eleven could not help but scold her. Wei Wei was smart and understood her immediately. Big Boss Mo was really brave and could actually kiss her. Ye Wei would give him more points just because of this.

Ye Wei smiled as she leaned against the sofa, looking like a hooligan. “I’m serious. You should talk to him or hold his hand. Maybe he will really wake up. He has been sleeping for the past half year. It is long enough. Mo Jue will come down and visit him every day and will be gloomy after that. Although I don’t like him, I still hope that he will wake up. It can’t help that the man and woman I like like him. This relationship throws me into a dilemma.”

Eleven could not help but turn back and stare at her. Ye Wei smiled seductively.

The drip was dripping slowly, flowing into his body from the tube. Mo Ye’s sleeping face looked less cold and seemed weak, giving off a feeling that he was easier to get close with.

“If only I can really make him wake up,” Eleven said slowly and suddenly remembered that chaotic night. Half a year had passed, but she still had a deep impression of it and could not forget even if she wanted to.

She could not forget his gaze before he went unconscious. It was like a devil’s hand, strangling her suffering heart.

“He definitely thinks that I shot him purposely. He must hate me a lot,” Eleven said bitterly. Ye Wei remained silent and did not reply. Under normal circumstances, people would think that Eleven had shot him on purpose. She did not know how Mo Ye thought, but she supported Eleven no matter what.

Eleven frowned and walked closer. She moved her hands and gritted her teeth, contemplating. But, she still stretched out her hands and gently touched his hand. The temperature in the room was just right, but his hand was cold.

It was not warm at all and Eleven’s heart was cold too. If not for his breath, she might have thought that this was a corpse.

‘Mo Ye… Mo Ye… Why weren’t you awake yet?’

The tip of her finger touched the back of his hand and she hesitated again. But, she held his hand nevertheless. Mo Ye’s palm had some calluses and felt rough. There was some warmth in his palm and not so cold like the back of his hand. The corners of Eleven’s lips could not help but curl up.

Although this hand had hurt her before, it had also caressed her hair and face. She still remembered the warmth and emotions.

She gritted her teeth and endured the bitter feeling in her heart. She did not know how to say emotional stuff and did not know what to say no matter how she thought. Should she say that she did not hate him? But she hated him. Or should she say that she did not love him? But she still loved him.

Should she say that she’d wait for him? She could not do it and did not want to promise him either.

Explain why she shot him? But she was so arrogant that she did not want to explain. Anyway, he might not hear it.

It was indeed difficult.

“Big Boss Mo, you are never going to see your Eleven again if you continue to sleep,” Ye Wei could not help but say. “Yes, that bullet was actually filled with anesthetic and the angle was off, so you managed to survive. You would have met the Yama if she really wanted to kill you. If she cannot aim properly within such a short distance, doesn’t it ruin her name as the first killer? So, please do not be so agitated that you don’t want to wake up and face reality, alright? You’re such a coward. Your woman came all the way to meet you, yet you pretend to be sleeping. Be careful not to get strike by lightning.”

Eleven could not help but smile. “What are you saying?”

“I will help you explain if you can’t be bothered to.” Ye Wei raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Big Boss Mo is really not cooperating and even sleeps for so long. Hey, actually, Eleven loves you. If not, she would not have visited you twice. Can you open your eyes and look at her? She has become prettier and fatter. You should wake up and ask her to lose some weight.”

Elevens smiled. Ye Wei’s words could always make one happy. No matter how solemn the atmosphere was, she could liven up the mood.

“Am I so fat that I need to lose weight?” Eleven was puzzled and ask. Her face still looked cold, but her eyes seemed confused. She had only gained two kilograms as compared to before she became a cyborg. It was not considered a lot. She did not even hit the normal weight.

She did not look fat, but her face looked rounder than before.

“I’m just saying.” Ye Wei waved her hands.

Eleven was speechless…
