Chapter 772 - Untitled

Ye Wei and Ning Ning chatted about their daily lives while Mo Jue went to wash up in the bathroom. Ning Ning smiled and shook his head. He didn’t expect his auntie and Mo Jue to get married at all.

Knowing what the two of them were like, he had thought that they might still need a few years more. It seemed like he had made a wrong guess. They couldn’t afford to wait anymore!

After chatting for a bit, Ning Ning frowned slightly. “Auntie, will you be going back to London after the wedding?”

“Yes. We’ll go back to London after the wedding before setting off for our honeymoon. Why? What can I do for you?” Ye Wei raised her eyebrows and smiled. It was rare for Ning Ning to ask her for a favor, and she would definitely go all out to help him.

Ning Ning nodded and tucked his lips. “Can you help me check on someone once you reach London? Ophelia, the daughter of Michael in England’s House of Lord. Her Chinese name is An Xunuo!”

“Xu Nuo?” Ye Wei frowned and looked at Ning Ning. “Why would you want to check on her without any reasons?”

“I went to Murphy Island with an instructor recently and saw her there,” Ning Ning said solemnly. “From what I know, Ophelia had been in a vegetative state for three years since she was four. However, she was extremely agile. It didn’t look like she had only trained for two years. It’s a little suspicious…”

When he saw An Xunuo in England, he just thought that their temperaments were similar. He saw Xu Nuo in her, and they both liked to wear red.

He started to doubt if Nuo Nuo was still alive. He knew that his doubt was illogical and impossible. However, when he was on the island, he saw her by the beach, drawing a picture that he had once seen in Xu Nuo’s room.

He remembered clearly that Xu Nuo drew the picture herself. He had checked with his men and confirmed that the things left behind by Nuo Nuo were untouched, which made Ning Ning suspicious. Furthermore, why would a person with such a noble status train on the island? According to his investigation, the island was a training base of another terrorist organization. One of the instructors had a good relationship with the instructors there, and they would always organize training with each other. He had seen An Xunuo before.”

“Ning Ning, are you saying that she is Nuo Nuo?”

“Yes. Can you help me check? Ask Ross too,” Ning Ning said solemnly. He had also just remembered to bring this up as he had been too busy and tired recently. He couldn’t contact the outside world at will, so he definitely was going to make use of the chance to speak to them about it, using the excuse of Ye Wei, Eleven, and Chu Li’s wedding.

Ye Wei swiped the smile off her face and put on a serious expression. “Baby, Nuo Nuo is dead. Accept the reality!”

“No!” Ning Ning’s handsome face had a determined look. “I don’t believe that she’s dead, and neither could I accept the reality. I’d rather believe that she’s alive and that she would come back to me someday.”

That was the only thought that kept him going. Only thinking so made him feel that there were meaning, goals, and attachments in life. The thought of Nuo Nuo being alive and breathing the same air as him made his world extraordinarily beautiful. He would never accept that she was dead.

Moreover, An Xunuo was too weird. The fire burning in his heart forced him to find out more about her.

Ye Wei looked at him silently. In fact, she wasn’t sure if the relationship between Xu Nuo and Ning Ning was love. After all, they were young. Being mature didn’t mean that they understood what love was. Perhaps he really loved Xu Nuo, but because the moment she died in front of him had impacted him greatly, it was deeply lodged in his heart. Moreover, they had not spent much time together. Ye Wei felt that no matter how deep his love was, it would eventually fade or even be buried as time passed. Ning Ning would grow up eventually, but Xu Xing’s presence had been reminding him about Xu Nuo’s existence. Now, even the new girl was reminding him about her. Both of them had deepened Ning Ning’s feelings for Xu Nuo unknowingly.

The more he saw them alive and kicking, the more he thought about Xu Nuo, who had died for him. This way, he would never forget Xu Nuo. ‘But… Baby, she is dead. You have to accept the reality.’

‘Maybe, when he falls in love with another woman, he would understand that the past is the past.’

“But you have to prepare yourself that this might only be your guess. Or maybe, you are having illusions because you miss Nuo Nuo too much.”

“No, auntie. I know what I am doing. Don’t worry about me. Just help me this time around.” Ning Ning smiled. “I’ll accept it if she is not Nuo Nuo.”

“This is too ridiculous. I will get my hands on the DNA report of An Xunuo and Michael. Is that okay?” Ye Wei asked.

Ning Ning nodded. Xu Nuo was the daughter of the Xu family. If she was really Nuo Nuo, her DNA wouldn’t be a match with Michael.

“Please take care of this as quickly as possible. If you are busy with the wedding, let Ross do it. He should be free.”

“I understand. Don’t worry. I’ll give you an answer within ten days.” Ye Wei laughed and shook her head. “Ning Ning, I know Xu Nuo is a wonderful girl and that you like her a lot, but don’t you think that… You are still young. Accept the fact that she is dead. You will get to meet another woman you like when you grow up, and she will replace Xu Nuo in your heart.”

“Impossible!” Ning Ning laughed bitterly. Nobody could ever replace Nuo Nuo, unless… He didn’t know what would happen in the future, but even if he did fall in love with someone else, she would not be able to replace Nuo Nuo either. He wouldn’t allow that to happen.

Ning Ning felt a special sense of belonging toward Xu Nuo. He felt sorry for her as well. He had always felt that Nuo Nuo had nothing but him. He belonged to Nuo Nuo, and he wouldn’t let anyone else take him away from her.

It was a feeling he never had.

“Well, in that case, I know what to do. Wow… Baby, you are really loyal. I’m so touched. Can I marry you instead?” Ye Wei pretended to be sad. “I don’t mind your age.”

Ning Ning was speechless. He laughed and pointed behind her. “There’s someone behind you.”

Ye Wei turned her head. Mo Jue had been standing there for god knows how long with his wet hair. He stared at her solemnly as if a storm was about to break out. Ye Wei was left speechless. ‘Is he a ghost? Why was there no movement at all?’

“Alright, auntie. I shall go. Give my blessings to the other two couples for me.” Ning Ning smiled, waved his hands, and switched off his laptop.

Mo Jue sneered coldly. Ye Wei smiled and recalled what Ning Ning had said. She turned around and asked, “Mo Jue, do you think that Xu Nuo is still alive?”

“Nuo Nuo?” Mo Jue’s expression turned gloomy. He sighed. “Do you think Mo Ye and I would be indifferent to Nuo Nuo’s death? Mo Ye had long suspected that Nuo Nuo wasn’t dead, so he asked someone to run a blood test on the corpse. It’s confirmed that she was Nuo Nuo. She is really dead. Please tell that boy to give up.”
