As Meng Lianling was no muddleheaded person, she did not panic despite the Mo brothers’ intensive pressure. She calmly said, “I did not mean anything special and merely wanted to probe her to see how she would respond. Besides, Ye Wei is even closer to Eleven than the Ye family. If you want to test her reaction, Eleven is the most suitable. I mentioned her unintentionally and did not expect her to react this adversely to it. As we were on the boat, she did not act particularly weirdly and I assumed all would be fine. I wanted to mention it to you all but had forgotten. If you are going to blame me for it, I have nothing to say.”
Mo Jue did not quite buy her story and squinted dangerously. “Didn’t I freaking warn you not to tell her nonsense?”
“Brother Jue, what exactly do you want?” Meng Lianling became angry. “Are you going to get into such an unhappy spot with me because of Ye Wei? She was our mortal rival, and her losing her memory now does not mean that she will not recover her memory. Brother Jue, I should advise you not to be too serious about it, lest you are unable to distance yourself from it when the time comes and make things difficult for us in the process.”
“Who do you think you are to tell me how I should go about my business?” Mo Jue coldly laughed and did not conceal the irony in his voice. “Meng Lianling, just because my brother treats you as a treasure does not mean that I will treat you likewise. Please do not think too highly of yourself.”
Meng Lianling’s face became terrible, and even Mo Ye became slightly sullen. This was the first time their relations soured because of Meng Lianling. All because of Ye Wei? And within the family? Hmmph!
Mo Jue calmly sat down and his anger had yet to subside. Mo Ye plainly said, “Little Jue, Lianling was right about something. Don’t fall too deeply. You get what I mean, right?”
“Brother, she is the one who is in the wrong, not me. Please do not change the topic of the conversation, and she must be punished.” Mo Jue pointed at Meng Lianling. “Surely you can’t be that biased?”
Mo Ye decisively distanced himself from the problem. “This is between you, and I am staying out of it.”
Mo Jue coldly smiled. “Is that so? If that is the case, I am utterly pissed off and looking for a fight. Are you going to stop me?”
Meng Lianling was shocked.
Mo Ye pondered and then flatly replied, “If not, shall I fight you instead?”
Mo Jue coldly harrumphed and Meng Lianling smiled. She said, “Okay, okay, stop fighting. I’ll not repeat the same mistake, okay? I will not mention Eleven again. If I do, Brother Jue has every right to punch me up.”
“You still have the gall to pull it off again?”
“Okay, okay, okay, I will not.” Meng Lianling rolled her eyes at him. “She had a dream, right? What did she dream of?”
Mo Ye quietly breathed deeper. Mo Jue smiled and asked, “Is it your concern?”
Meng Lianling’s smile paused. If she were her normal self, she would have acted up. As she knew that she had utterly offended Mo Jue today, she did not want to stir Mo Ye’s suspicion further and thus endured it.
That was his character, but he would not really do anything to her. She had long treated the Mo brothers as her own all these years and could not remain angry for long. She decided to treat it as regular tensions.
Mo Ye had a slightly different ax to grind. He really wanted to know what Ye Wei had dreamed about. As he recalled that scorned face in the glass house, he could not help but feel vexed. When he left in a hurry yesterday, he only knew that Doctor Claire was patching her up so that she would be ready for another round of injections that had a higher dosage and toxicity. She had to cooperate, and if she resisted to the end…
Claire had mentioned the severity of the issue to him, but he always felt that Eleven was a smart woman who knew the gravity of the situation. She knew that she would be unable to leave and any resistance was futile.
People with such a strong will to live would not do things that compromised themselves. Even if she went berserk, she would not forget to minimize the harm she did to herself. She, in his heart, was a very special person.
“Little Jue, what exactly did she dream about?” Mo Ye asked Mo Jue.
“That is between me and her, so stay out of it!” Mo Jue slightly amended what Mo Ye said and returned the same statement to him.
Mo Ye became flustered, and Meng Lianling tried to ease tensions. “Brother Jue, Ye Wei really is in danger as she would dream about Eleven from time to time. Will she be able to recall anything? Are you sure you want to keep this going on?”
“I have already hypnotized her, and she would have pretty much forgotten about it.”
“I am not talking about this,” Meng Lianling said as she looked at Mo Ye. “Ye once told me that we should turn Ye Wei against the terrorist organization. I am in favor of that.”
Mo Jue gritted his teeth silently. Mo Ye did mention that.
When Meng Lianling saw him remain silent, she carried on saying, “Do you think there is anything bad about this? The terrorist organization does not know about Ye Wei’s situation and would be merciful toward her. If we reasonably exploit her, we have no problems infiltrating the terrorist organization. That is way easier than assassinations. Now that Silver Face is unable to enter London, it will be impossible to take out Chu Li and company. Let Ye Wei do it by falling in love with you deeply and being willing to give her all for you. Once that happens, you can have her do whatever you will her to do. Since you are certain that she cannot remember a single thing, why not let her know all these? There is another method. Sow conflict between yourself and the terrorist organization so that she will willingly deal with them on your behalf. That is the perfect scenario, and even if she recalls everything, she cannot pin any blame on you.”
Mo Jue coldly laughed. “You could even think of this! You are undoubtedly the most scheming one, Meng Lianling!”
There was an irony in his voice that was not picked up, and Meng Lianling smiled. She did not seem to mind and asked Mo Ye, “What do you think about it?”
Mo Ye looked at Mo Jue quietly. Mo Jue suddenly said, “Stop freaking dreaming. I will definitely not do that, and you sure hold me in high esteem.”
Given that Ye Wei was not in love with him as he expected, how could he expect her to kill for him?
‘Hmmph!’
Meng Lianling was having her way, but she could not help but admit that if the other person in question weren’t Ye Wei, it would have been an excellent idea that he would have adopted.
As the person in question was Ye Wei, he was extremely resentful.
“Brother Jue!”
“Shut up and stop talking about this anymore!” Mo Jue suddenly stood up. “Meng Lianling, I will warn you again. If I discover that you have been telling Ye Wei nonsense, please do not blame me for being impolite.”
As he said that, he turned to Mo Ye and said, “Brother, there is something I must tell you. Please watch your woman closely. If the same mistake happens again, I will not show you face on account that we are siblings. Hmmph!”
