She felt pain all over her body, a dull pain that slowly overflowed from her heart. Her emotions seemed to be gushing out of her heart, burning it so badly that it hurt so much. The pain was so unbearable that she wanted to scream.
She had never felt so terrible in her life.
From what she remembered, she had never cared about anything in her whole life. She always had control of all her emotions, be it happiness or sorrows. She wasn’t quite afraid of anything either, but this time, she failed to control her temper or the pain that was spreading in her heart.
Her throat hurt so much, and she felt as if there was a fire burning her organs all the time. She tossed and turned, wanting to put out the fire with a basin of water, but no one could help.
The burning sensation was so strong and painful, but she was feeling cold instead. She felt so cold that she was shivering. Someone put another quilt on her, but she still felt cold all over.
It was a terrible feeling that she had never had. Panic, anxiety, anger, hatred—all the negative emotions drowned her. Her sight was blurry and she could not see properly.
Her eyes stung badly, and water droplets gathered slowly. Tears fell gradually and landed on the pillow. She felt someone touch her face and wipe away her tears gently.
But she didn’t want to wake up, as she understood what she would face the moment she woke up, which would make the pain in her heart even more uncontrollable.
She was Ye Wei, the woman who didn’t care about anything in the world. Since when had she become a coward? She obviously knew that she had lost something, but she was reluctant to believe or accept it.
She had never been like that. Nobody could bear having a blank memory, but she had endured it for the sake of her loved ones. She had even gotten used to being by his side, forgetting that she had relatives and friends.
Even though there was a blank in her memory, she was not really scared and accepted it quickly. But this time, she had hoped that she would sleep forever. Her world was slowly withering...
Like a flower, slowly losing its life.
Mo Jue’s face appeared in the dark. He was still gorgeous as ever, with his magical and attractive purple eyes. That pair of eyes still mesmerized her, like how they always did in the past.
He had always looked at her angrily. However, no matter how furious he was, he had never done anything that would hurt her. Never. She thought that that was love. She thought that compromising with someone when they were angry was love.
She believed that Mo Jue loved her, and the whole world believed so too. How could she not know that he loved her? But apparently, him doing that meant that he didn’t love her enough.
She always believed that no matter what happened, Mo Jue would love and adore her. But why? Why did he wave his butcher knife at her family?
The air in the room seemed to be frozen. It was dark and cold, and she had no feelings at all. She was no longer the nonchalant and unrestrained Ye Wei, but an ordinary woman who was hurt by love. She was silently suffering from the pain he gave her. She couldn’t open her mouth and ask for help because she had asked for those things to happen.
She was prepared for the possibility of any problems arising between them right at the beginning when she chose to stay with Mo Jue. She had imagined all possible scenarios that could happen, which included conflicts and being hurt by him. She had even tried to control her feelings and love him less. However, she couldn’t. It was unexpected for that to have such a huge blow on her.
In the dark, his purple eyes still seemed beautiful. However, they looked so cold, as if he had no emotions. He smiled faintly, as if he was mocking something. She dragged her heavy feet to get closer to him, but step by step, he moved farther away from her so that she couldn’t touch him.
‘Mo Jue, are you laughing at me?’
‘Right, laugh at me. Laugh at the fool who had caused today’s tragedy because of you. The explosion, the scream, the pictures that are full of devastation and family members who are missing, injured, or whose life and death are unknown...’ She was speechless.
She would like to ask him why he did that, but he looked at her coldly as usual, without saying a word. He looked at her with a sly look, as if everything was meant to happen.
Ye Wei’s heart was burning with hate. ‘Mo Jue, you will regret it, I swear.’ Maybe he had already regretted it because someone else had paid the price for what he had done.
An innocent life!
‘Wei Wei, come back. Come back to me.’ She heard his indifferent and heartless voice sounded gentle. Ye Wei laughed coldly. ‘Go back? Unless I am going back to kill him, never!’
‘This time, I won’t let him off so easily. Never!’
‘Wei Wei, this is the price of leaving me!’
Ye Wei’s body felt heavy, but she just sneered. The enchanting smile that she had always faked was gone. She couldn’t bring herself to smile. Her heavy mood was pressurizing her so much that it made her breathless.
Eleven blamed herself, but Ye Wei deserved it. If she hadn’t fought with Mo Jue, she wouldn’t have wanted to go out for a walk with Eleven. If she wasn’t with Eleven, the explosion wouldn’t happen, and Eleven wouldn’t have lost the luggage. Then, the Mafia wouldn’t be able to get hold of that piece of information. All of that was caused by her. She was reminded of what Ning Ning had said. ‘Auntie, this is your choice. You have to take responsibility for whatever happens next, whether good or bad.’ She finally understood the heavy tone of the young kid and the warning that he tried to give.
She utterly regretted her mistake!
They really should not care or love each other given their identities. They were meant to be strangers in the end. Even if they got together, their relationship wouldn’t be able to last long. There were bound to have many obstacles along the way, just like how she felt stressed and frustrated when she was in the Mafia. The desire to leave was great. How could they possibly last long with such a state of mind?
Unfortunately, she couldn’t realize it in the past. Perhaps, she didn’t want to. After all, she loved Mo Jue deeply.
But all of these woke her up like a thunderstorm. She finally came to her senses. If it wasn’t because of all the people who sacrificed their lives, she would not have realized that everything happened because of her wrong choice.
Their relationship shouldn’t be forced!
‘Is it too late to correct my mistakes now?’ Mo Jue seemed to understand her mind. He asked her to return to him over and over again coldly, but Ye Wei sneered and rejected him firmly. Suddenly, Mo Jue disappeared.
Ye Wei was relieved. Suddenly, she heard the crying of a baby. She was a little stunned and even had the chills. It was dark and she could not see anything. ‘Whose baby is crying?’
She couldn’t help but keep walking straight ahead. Suddenly, a big black tree appeared in front of her. There was a baby crying loudly under the tree. It was a little pretty baby girl, and she had a pair of purple eyes like Mo Jue. Large drops of tears rolled down her cheeks and she wiped her tears constantly. It was all dark around her.
She was like an abandoned ghost sitting under the tree, at a loss of what to do. She could only cry sadly.
It seemed like they were separated by a river in between them, and she couldn’t find a way to cross it. Ye Wei was worried and sad. At the same time, she wanted to hold and comfort her. But, the baby looked at her with a grudge.
The gaze from the pair of purple eyes that were similar to Mo Jue’s made her shiver with chills. Why was she looking at her like that? Why did she look so aggrieved?
“Mom, why don’t you want me?” the baby asked Ye Wei resentfully. She sniffed her red nose, looking pitiful and sad.
Ye Wei felt that her heart was going to break. The baby calling her ‘mom’ hurt her more than a bullet would. For a moment, she was breathless from the pain she felt.
She didn’t mean to abandon her. How could she bear to abandon that cute baby? Ye Wei tried hard to get close to her. “It’s okay, baby. Mommy is here. Don’t be afraid.” She walked up to the baby when she heard someone shouting for her behind. “Wei Wei, Wei Wei...”
Her body shook suddenly, and the whole scene, including her baby, disappeared in an instant. Ye Wei’s body shook violently, and she opened her eyes gently. She couldn’t differentiate dream from reality until Eleven’s voice called her back to reality.
There was an infusion tube inserted at the back of her hand. Ye Wei felt exhausted and her whole body was aching, especially the lower part.
She remembered what had happened before she went into a coma and reality hit her. Eleven held her hand tightly. “Wei Wei, how are you feeling? Are you feeling any discomfort? I’ll call the doctor right away.”
They were in the medical room in the Roman castle. It was decorated beautifully and gave people a warm feeling. Ye Wei looked at Eleven. She was the only one in the room, and she was worried and anxious. She seemed like she had something to say, but words got in her way, as if she was hiding something.
Ye Wei smiled. Her smile was no longer natural. Instead, there was a faint sadness in her smile. “What’s wrong with me?”
In fact, she had already felt it.
The stabbing pain of her lower body, the incessant blood flow, and the baby who called her in her dream—she had figured out what was wrong with her.
Ye Wei smiled bitterly. That was the punishment God gave her. She was given a taste of how losing a loved one was like. Otherwise, she would never get to experience such a feeling.
‘Look! God is actually fair.’
“Wei Wei, stop. You don’t have to force yourself to smile.” Eleven stroked her face gently and her heart hurt even more. How sad must Wei Wei be if she already felt that uncomfortable?
How could she tell her that the baby was gone?
She was agitated and anxious then. In addition to that, she had done strenuous physical exercises when she was in Palermo. Hence, her body could not take it anymore as she did not have enough rest as well. The baby was gone the moment she became agitated again.
She might not even know that she was pregnant. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have... She was reminded of that high-altitude fall. If it wasn’t for her, the baby would have died then. To be honest, the baby’s will to live was really strong.
After being in risky situations for so many times, she stayed safe and sound in her mother’s womb. If it wasn’t because Ye Wei was too agitated this time, the baby could have survived and become healthy again after a few days of rest.
However...
“Wei Wei...”
“It’s a girl. I just dreamed that she was talking to me,” Ye Wei said softly with a gentle smile on her face. “She looked pretty. Like Mo Jue, she had a pair of beautiful purple eyes. Really cute. I wanted to hold her, but she seemed to hate me. She resented me for abandoning her, so she didn’t want to let me come near. Then, I woke up...”
Ye Wei struggled to speak clearly. Her voice was choked with emotions, but she didn’t have tears in her eyes. Eleven’s heart ached. She really wanted to shoot Mo Jue.
It was unfair for Wei Wei to bear the pain alone.
“Wei Wei, cry if you want to.” Eleven didn’t quite know how to comfort her, but the other people in the Roman castle were not close to Ye Wei either. No one could have a proper conversation with Ye Wei except her.
It was a terrible feeling. She was afraid that Ye Wei would go down a dead end.
“It might be better if it’s gone... If she’s not meant to be mine, no matter how hard I tried, it would still not be mine,” Ye Wei said calmly. No matter how hard she tried, both Mo Jue and the baby were not meant for her.
What did she work so hard for? Ye Wei couldn’t figure out. She had a splitting headache, and both Mo Jue’s face and her child’s cries were constantly in her mind. Ye Wei couldn’t stand the torture anymore. She felt like shouting and screaming to shut them up.
But she couldn’t bear to. It might be better for her to listen to the baby’s cry for a little longer, as it might be the only time in her life that she could hear her baby cry.
If she didn’t listen and remember it carefully, she wouldn’t have a chance in the future.
How sad that was.
Ye Wei smiled coldly. She put her hands on her abdomen and closed her eyes. Eleven wanted to comfort her, but she didn’t know what to say. She was so sad that she couldn’t speak.
How much more pain did the Mo brothers have to bring to the both of them?
Could Mo Jue and Wei Wei still return to how they were in the past?
Ye Wei was someone who couldn’t tolerate any flaws, and it was difficult for her to change her mind. However, if Mo Jue had treated Ye Wei like how Mo Ye treated Eleven, Wei Wei might not have changed her mind, and she would even stay with Mo Jue forever. She was more determined than Eleven. But this time, because she had lost her baby, Ye Wei hated both Mo Jue and herself more. It would be easier for Mo Jue to reach the sky than to fix their relationship.
She had expected Ye Wei to do something about it. ‘What should I do? She obviously loves Mo Jue a lot. Can’t this turn back anymore?’
“Wei Wei, do you want anything to eat? I’ll get it for you,” Eleven asked softly. Ye Wei shook her head. She had no appetite, and she didn’t want to say or do anything either. She just wanted to be alone and listen to the cries of her child in her dream again.
Eleven was worried. She was thinking about what to say when an intelligence agent knocked on the door and told her about the emergency in Oman. Eleven looked at Ye Wei and thought for a moment. “Wei Wei, wait for me. I’ll be back soon.”
Ye Wei didn’t say anything. Eleven told the people at the door to guard her well and left for the information room hurriedly.
Ye Wei turned her head. A stream of tears flowed out of her eyes.
Oman had descended into a state of panic. The special virus missile was powerful and four cities had been infected with the virus through air transmission in only half a day. The cities were paralyzed and the virus was gradually diluted in the air after spreading widely. Only those four cities had been affected, but it had caused huge economic losses...
Imagine a city where all of the people had fallen ill for half a day. What kind of concept was that? It was absolutely terrifying.
Su Man went into the infected area himself with his men to find Bai Ye. Fortunately, he found the seriously injured Bai Ye in an abandoned church. Then, Su Man dramatically launched another virus missile, which contained the antidote.
In half a day, due to Su Man’s marvelous virus research skills, millions of people in the four cities fell sick at the same time and then magically recovered again in an instant. He was indeed a powerful and capable man.
All those efforts were to deter them from grasping the chance to assassinate Bai Ye. If he hadn’t done that, he wouldn’t have been able to save Bai Ye no matter how fast he was. The only way out was to keep all of them still.
Many innocent people didn’t know why. It was as if they had a dream.
It was so chaotic that words couldn’t describe the moment. Many journalists were afraid to go into the forbidden infected area, so the news they had gotten hold of was also fragmentary and wrong. Even the news sent back by the satellites was more reliable and factually right.
Eleven called to ask Su Man about the situation of Bai Ye, and she was only told that he was seriously injured. With him around, Bai Ye wouldn’t have any life dangers. Eleven then heaved a sigh of relief.
The situation in the Middle East, Colombia, and Mexico had also been under control. Everything seemed to be returning back to normal. Only internal personnel knew that the Top Terrorist Organization had suffered a huge loss this time.
They had many casualties, dead or injured. It would take a long time to recuperate after the war. Moreover, the Mafia had robbed several military factories, as well as killed or arrested important local leaders, technicians, and researchers. The loss of talents had an extremely huge blow on them too. Chu Li was so angry that he wanted to launch nuclear bombs in several Middle East countries.
Eleven blamed herself for that.
She contacted Sir in person, and he agreed to rescue the technicians and researchers who were captured by the local government so as to prevent them from fighting again. Especially those core researchers and technicians, who were still alive, must be rescued.
Sir assured her that he would rescue them all in seven days. Eleven heaved a sigh of relief. She couldn’t bear to see how many military factories remained in the Top Terrorist Organization.
She didn’t wish to see the number of people killed too. It was too cruel.
They had found Jason too, but he didn’t suffer any injuries. However, he was furious and agitated. It was the cruelest and scariest attack on the Top Terrorist Organization ever.
Because it happened too suddenly, Chu Li and the others did not have enough time to prepare for it at all. After all, their enemies knew where they were and how many people they had at their fingertips. It was easy for them to attack and destroy. Furthermore, they were extremely fast. Water from afar wouldn’t help quench a fire nearby. If they were given two hours to prepare for the attack, they wouldn’t be afraid even if all the countries in the Middle East teamed up against them.
This time, they had suffered great losses because they were too slow and things had happened too suddenly.
Eleven’s heart sank. ‘Whose fault is this? Who caused this tragedy to happen?’
She was connected to Chu Li’s private telephone line. Chu Li was in a very bad mood. He didn’t look well and he seemed to be exhausted, as if he had just experienced a war. She didn’t know if it was because he was too tired, but he looked like he had aged.
Eleven’s heart sank again. “Chu Li, I’m sorry. All this happened due to my carelessness. I’m really sorry!”
There were no words to express her pain and sadness. Eleven was not good with words anyway. Looking at Chu Li’s tired face, she was at a loss.
She was reminded of Ye Wei, who was still lying on the bed. Shivers were sent down her spine.
Chu Li looked at her for a long time without speaking. Eleven was immensely regretful and ashamed to face Chu Li.
“How did the document leak?” Chu Li asked.
Eleven explained what had happened again. Chu Li gnawed his teeth, and his expression was sinister. “I will not let this man off. Never. No matter who he is, Mo Jue or Mo Ye, I, Chu Li, will never end things with them so easily. It’s either them or us. You’d better tell Ye Wei too.”
Eleven was shocked. It was the first time that she had seen Chu Li with such a scary look. Except for the last time when Rong Yan was in danger, she had never seen him so angry before.
He was different from Jason, Black J, and the others. He had never interfered in the relationship problems of Ye Wei or Eleven. Actually, he had even supported them to find their own happiness. But now...
The first person who forced her to make a choice was Chu Li.
The severe blow had affected Chu Li greatly. His years of hard work he had put in was destroyed just like that, and most importantly, the brothers who worked with him for so many years had died in front of him.
He had a good relationship with the experts in weapons research. Researchers and technicians liked him too. They often chatted for a long time and talked about the future and their dreams. Chu Li lost all of them at once... He absolutely couldn’t forgive the perpetrators.
He understood that Eleven and Ye Wei weren’t intentional, but he couldn’t forgive them for allowing others to take advantage of it. He would never let them off for causing so many deaths. There must be someone responsible for it.
Eleven closed her eyes. ‘Chu Li, you don’t have to ask. You should know my choice.’
