The temperature in Muscat was extremely high and heatwaves roiled. The temperature was so high that people felt stifled.
The glint in the man’s purple eyes gradually faded and they became dull. In the flash of an eye, an immense hatred surged in his eyes as he pressed his hand against his bleeding chest, which had turned red.
His purple eyes seemed to be dyed this very shade of red.
Hatred covered all the sadness he felt.
‘Wei Wei, why didn’t you ask and just shoot? Why didn’t you ask me anything? Why didn’t you say a word or ask anything and just shot me first? Well, then. Very well…’
His chest was hurting immensely.
His heart, as though it was tugged at by steel threads, sharply ached immeasurably. The steel threads wrapped around his heart, breaking it into pieces.
Her shooting him utterly shattered his heart.
Mo Jue had never before hated Ye Wei so much. He was frustrated with her and unhappy with her, but never to such a degree. She often allowed her callousness with him to immensely frustrate him but he never hated her.
But it seemed that this single gunshot shattered everything, unleashing his hatred and madness.
He lost all feelings for her. In place was a strong intention for her to perish with him so that they would tangle with each other for eternity.
He, with his immense hatred, walked toward Ye Wei, clutching his heart with one hand while clenching his fist with the other. He squinted dangerously like a hunting leopard, viciously and dangerously.
Ye Wei coldly laughed. She could not care about anything else.
She really could not care less.
Mo Jue’s steps gradually became slower.
The earlier shot was a crack shot. She would have definitely taken aim if she wanted a person dead. Even though she had shot him from afar, she definitely would not have missed. Mo Jue knew that although his heart was aching profusely. He knew that the bullet had hit home and knew well that Ye Wei really wanted him dead. She did not show him the slightest mercy, and he seemed to be the only person who foolishly held on to the feelings of before out of longing for them.
She simply could not care.
If she even cared the slightest, she would not have shot him.
Ye Wei used to yell at him to trust her that bit more and she would not leave him. But why? He trusted her but she did not trust him in return!
He wished he could put her in his pocket so that she would be by his side 24/7. He, like this, would have no qualms with her going out to catch her breath. But why could she not trust him that he would not hurt her?
He had spent so much time with her, but did he harm her or her family? While he was a tough talker, when did he do something so vicious? When did he let her down?
‘Wei Wei, why are you so vicious?’
She seemed to have pushed him into an abyss, and her hatred for him was clearly deep-seated.
He slightly ambled, unsteady. His eyes suddenly opened wide and he sprinted toward Ye Wei, who coldly looked at him sprint. Her mind was blank, and a cold gust seemed to breeze through her heart, widening the void in her heart. It seemed as though something was to surge out of her heart.
There was a spine-numbing feeling that was accompanied by searing pain.
Ye Wei’s eyes opened wide. She quickly turned around and raised both her hands at the same time. In the blink of an eye, four killers behind her fell dead. Ye Wei’s steps were a little unstable and she hid behind a pillar.
She was also shot in the back. After she had shot Mo Jue, she was not as calm as she had thought. Her emotions were roiling and she did not notice somebody behind her. She, in her carelessness, was shot.
A warm feeling covered Ye Wei’s back, and even an idiot like Ye Wei could tell that the men behind were from the Mafia because the gunfire had stopped. If they were typical killers, they would have killed Mo Jue. But they did not.
Therefore…
They were a pack.
Ye Wei coldly smiled. Mo Jue could feel it as he dangerously squinted. He turned to see the cold smile on Ye Wei’s face and the shock in his eyes faded away, replaced with hatred.
‘How laughable… Wei Wei, since you have decided to kill me, why were you distracted? The muzzles were already pointed at you but you did not discover the danger. When you fired, did you feel your heart panic…’
He suddenly gave up explaining. She hated him, didn’t she? Why shouldn’t he try hating on her? Since things were already as such, they might just as well hate each other.
He felt slight dizziness as sweat trickled down his forehead. Mo Jue knew well that he would not be able to keep it up any longer but still gritted his teeth. Even if he died, he still wanted an answer.
“Wei Wei, do you regret it? ” Mo Jue looked at her coldly in hate and punctuated his words.
The pillar Ye Wei was leaning on was dyed red. “I don’t!” she replied almost without hesitation.
These simple words, like a sharp sword, pierced Mo Jue’s already shattered heart. It became a trauma that he could not shake away from in the future.
An intense hatred came upon him.
He suddenly broke into cold laughter, seemingly mocking himself. His body suddenly became unstable and his fluctuating emotions agitated his injuries. He became mad and suddenly coughed out blood. His consciousness slipped away and he collapsed onto the cold stone ground. Ye Wei held onto the pillar tightly and dropped her gun. She felt herself become dizzy before collapsing onto the ground.
This would do too. Perishing together seemed to be the ending she wanted. He, she, and their children reuniting in another world did not seem like too bad an idea.
In that case, nobody owed anyone anything.
Any more misunderstandings and hurt would be gone with the wind…
Ye Wei felt her body turn cold as she leaned against the pillar and saw the blue, bright sky over Muscat. This might just be the last time she saw the sun…
She would gradually die from exsanguination or be killed…
Mo Jue’s men were behind her, and she had nary the ability to resist. Those who fired shots at her clearly wanted her dead.
Very well, then!
Ye Wei’s body gradually turned cold and she felt her senses leave her. Her hands slumped onto the cold ground and she became unconscious with a satisfied smile on her lips…
