Xu Nuo stayed in Rome for two days before heading to America for an anti-terrorism conference. Mo Wushuang, not seeing what an anti-terrorism conference looked like, wanted to tag along to take a look. Ye Wei immediately shot down her idea and Mo Wushuang had no choice but to remain in Rome.

After Xu Nuo left, Ye Wei seriously gave it a thought. Was it fine not to inform Ning Ning?

When she asked Eleven, Eleven asked Mo Ye, who in turn asked Mo Jue before he looked at Ye Wei. Ye Wei shot them a despising glare. When she called Third Young Master Ye in the night, the mood in the Ye family was overcast. Third Young Master Ye was in a bad mood, and she did not hear Cheng Anya’s voice. With no information in days, it was afraid that the worst had happened and everybody was prepared for the worst.

Ye Ningyuan sent somebody to look for Hailan but nobody discovered her body. As the Sophie Vasi was too extensively damaged, her body, if she were dead, would be unrecognizable from the other bodies.

Ye Wei checked in on Ye Ningyuan, and Third Young Master Ye merely said he was not in good shape. With Cheng Anya seriously ill, Ning Ning, without changing out, accompanied her day and night. Nobody would be able to convince him out of it, and if this went on, chances were he would collapse when Cheng Anya recovered.

Hailan’s death greatly affected the Ye family.

She was the young princess of the Ye family who was doted by all. Her sudden death left a deep wound in Third Young Master Ye and Cheng Anya. Ye Wei did not dare to imagine how they felt. If she were to put herself in their shoes… She would certainly flip out if Wushuang died.

As for Ning Ning, he certainly blamed himself very much. While he was set up for it, he went for it despite knowing too well and regretted the outcome. Not only had he almost given his life but he had unintentionally implicated Hailan and sent her to her doom as well.

To him, everything was undoubtedly his fault. If he did not jump headlong into the trap nor called Hailan, Hailan would probably have been fine. While Ye Ningyuan did not say that, his heart was brimming with grief and regret.

Cheng Anya’s counseling was to no avail.

Ye Wei knew that Third Young Master Ye was not in a good mood and did not say much more. She consoled them little as they were unable to stomach them. Ye Wei ended the call and planned to head to City A.

As there were things in the Mafia to see to, the Mo brothers were not able to leave. Since Xu Nuo was at an anti-terrorism meeting, policies that would disadvantage them further were expected if nothing went wrong. They hence had to remain to see to any contingencies.

Ye Wei and Eleven brought the children to City A.

Hailan was a very special child. Nobody could stand up to her mysterious power, and many felt that nothing could happen to her. A few years ago, Hailan saved Mo Jue in The Caribbean Ocean. They had forgotten that she was human and not immortal despite her powers. They treated her as a god thanks to her strong and mysterious powers and forgot the fact that she was a human.

It was the case for her, Third Young Master Ye, and Ye Ningyuan. Regardless of whether it was a lesson, it came at a very steep price.

They could not bear the fact that a vibrant life, and such a close family member, was lost.

City A.

When Ye Wei and Eleven reached City A, Rong Yan had already brought Kaka along and was accompanying Cheng Anya in the hospital. When Ye Wei and Eleven reached, Ning Ning was sitting in the long corridor of the hospital and Anya was talking to Rong Yan in the ward.

Ye Ningyuan looked terrible. His face was pale and he had heavy dark circles under his eyes. He seemed so tired as though he had not slept for days. Ye Feimo stared at him and seemed to wish he could just crash so that he could study his elder brother. Ye Ningyuan, surprisingly, soldiered on without knocking out. Ye Feimo felt extremely helpless.

Kaka and Ye Feimo were in conversation, and they seemed to be talking about what it would take to safely knock him out.

He admired how someone could sit without eating or drinking for days.

“Ning Ning?” Ye Wei called him and he looked up. He was much thinner, and his eyes were no longer bright. After he called ‘auntie’, he looked down and ignored everyone else. Ye Wei shook her head. She and Eleven led the children into the ward to greet Anya. The children, once done with their greetings, came out and gave the adults some space.

Anya did not look too terrible. Rong Yan said that she looked better these past two days. She looked much more downcast the few days before that. Cheng Anya sighed. “I’ve got to quickly get myself discharged or it’ll be Ning Ning’s turn to be hospitalized.”

“What’s happened to him?”

“Guilt, I guess. That silly child… Nobody’s blaming him,” Cheng Anya said helplessly as she looked out the window. Their time with Hailan was just too short, and there was nobody to blame for that.

She was also upset. However upset she was, Hailan would never return. If she were hurt, Ning Ning would be hurt too. Obviously, Ning Ning was already blaming himself. He doggedly kept watching over her in the hospital for the past few days. He did not listen to what Third Young Master Ye and she told him and pinned all blame upon himself. Cheng Anya was not happy to see it.

Could she blame Ning Ning? Could she blame Xu Nuo? These were not what they wanted to see, but what else could she say? She was at a loss from losing Hailan, and all she could do was to take care of herself so that Ning Ning could rest for a while.

In the corridor, the few children surrounded Ye Ningyuan. Mo Yeyan and Mo Chen called him elder brother, but Ye Ningyuan did not bother about them. “He does not care about anyone,” Kaka said.

“Is he nuts?” Mo Wushuang asked Ye Feimo.

“Thereabouts.”

The few young children huddled and discussed ways to get Ye Ningyuan to return home to rest. The discussion results were dismissed by Ye Feimo and Kaka as they had tried them.

Amongst the children, Kaka was the oldest, immediately followed by Ye Feimo. Mo Wushuang was a year younger, and Mo Yao and Mo Chen were a year younger. Mo Yeyan was the youngest, and the Mo children grew up together. Kaka was much closer to the Ye children, and they were smart and had outstanding looks. The nurses who walked past the corridor could not help but take an additional glance at them.

There were way more guys than girls in their generation. What started out with Wushuang and Hailan as the only two girls became Wushuang as the only girl when Hailan died. It was as though Wushuang became some rare species.

The few children huddled together and talked. Kaka sat aside out of boredom and closed his eyes. He missed Hailan. The thought of not being able to see Hailan anymore left him feeling terrible.

But he firmly believed that Hailan was still alive and happily living somewhere. It was when he thought this way that he did not feel too terrible. He and Hailan were childhood lovers, and his mommy had been telling him since young that she would be his future wife. Hailan might be a year older than him, but her body was not well and she was much smaller than him. He often liked to hug that dainty her and play with her, and she liked to head to his place. Both were very close to each other since young, and Kaka was not used to not having her by his side.

As long as he came to City A, the first person he would see was Hailan. Her adorable smile flashed past his face, and his always cheerful face became glum when he received the bad news.

That was just how he felt now.
