Chapter 499: Untitled
Mo Ye could only watch Eleven walk away from him. Whether he was seriously wounded or too excited, Mo Ye lapsed into a coma as he saw Eleven’s yacht.
He grabbed Mo Jue’s hands extremely hard. “Chase, send someone to chase her damnit. She will never escape.”
“I know,” Mo Jue acknowledged. Mo Ye seemed to heave a sigh of relief and fainted. The last thought on his mind was that she would still remain on the island when he awoke.
Mo Jue called Ding Ke and all to send Big Boss Mo and Meng Lianying to the hospital. The island on the hospital, thankfully, was not too far. Claire, seeing how seriously wounded the two of them were, had an epiphany and was not particularly shocked.
Mo Ye had taken a few bullets, and they were not the most serious of his injuries as his internal injuries were more horrifying. Meng Lianying took a shot to the abdomen, and Claire opted to save Meng Lianying first as she was in a more critical condition.
“Second Master, shall we pursue her?” Ding Ke asked Mo Jue.
It was not him not wanting to give chase, but he had to protect Big Boss Mo’s life. He fired at Eleven once and utterly regretted as there were many more boats that were faster than the yacht Eleven was on, and Eleven was seriously wounded, hence it was extremely easy to catch up with her.
Despite the open sea and the lack of targets to pursue, the hundreds of miles around the island belonged to the Mo brothers. Even if an interception order was issued by the surrounding two islands, Eleven could not escape far.
When Ding Ke asked the question, Ye Wei happened to lean at the door and looked at Mo Jue coldly.
Mo Jue frowned and slowly said, “Stop the chase and let her be. Send some men up the mountain to bring the injured men down so that they can be patched up.”
“I’ve already sent men up the mountain to bring men down, and they are currently getting the bullets in them removed in the hospital. Second Master, I do not want to pursue Eleven’s issues further, but Big Boss Mo…”
“I’ll talk to him about it when he wakes up. The blame won’t lie on you.”
“Ok!” Ding Ke heaved a sigh of relief as it was not him being afraid of Big Boss Mo pinning blame on him. Who, in their sane mind, would risk their lives in such a situation? Mo Ye was utterly humiliated today, and Eleven escaped just as the antidote was about to be formulated.
Besides, nobody could exactly guess what was on Mo Ye’s mind hence it was better for Mo Jue to take Mo Ye on as Mo Ye could do little to Mo Jue.
Ye Wei coldly harrumphed, and Ding Ke recalled how vicious she could be. He paused, and Ye Wei raised her eyebrows. “Ding Ke, don’t you need to get your bones reattached?”
When she mentioned it, Ding Ke then felt a stabbing pain in his wrist. As too many things happened at once, he almost forgot that he was crippled in an arm. Ding Ke hastily waved to Mo Jue and went to look for a doctor without looking at Ye Wei at all.
Ye Wei broke into a slight smile as she saw him walk away. She looked around and saw Mo Jue glumly sit aside as he frowned extremely hard. Mo Jue was extremely worried about Mo Ye’s condition.
He had no mood to see to other affairs.
Ye Wei leant against the wall whilst Mo Jue did not say a word. She did not say a word, and thought about how she ought to ask him the many things on her mind. Given how things evolved, she somewhat knew Mo Ye had imprisoned Eleven and tortured her. She was still unclear about the specifics.
She wanted to ask Mo Jue, but fell silent when she saw how fatigued he looked.
After a long time…
“… Your brother will be fine. Do you want to get some food?” Ye Wei cleared her throat.
As she spoke, Ye Wei wanted to bite her tongue off. Touchwood, how could she say that despite the many questions she wanted to ask him? Even if he starved for days, he would not die.
Mo Jue suddenly looked up at Ye Wei in shock, as though he had seen a dinosaur. Ye Wei was slightly angered from the frustration as she took offense at how Mo Jue looked at her.
While Ye Wei was frustrated, she did not show it but merely looked at Mo Jue calmly.
“That won’t be necessary. I’m not hungry,” Mo Jue said nothing and looked at the light in the operating theater before looking down and quietly awaited.
Ye Wei actually took the initiative to care for him. It was… really unexpected as he saw little of these… caring and nurturing characteristics in women like her. While he was not blaming her, it was Ye Wei who was too bada**. While he was a little glum, he lightened up after hearing what Ye Wei said. The plunging stench in the hospital was no longer as unbearable.
Beautiful Ye Wei did not expect her simply checking in with Mo Jue to lift his mood, and she wised up and did not speak further. Since the two people in the operating theater were not people she cared about, she was not the most concerned and accompanied Mo Jue out of obligation.
She had never seen Mo Jue this… lonely.
While she did not like Mo Ye, she hoped that he would not be crippled in the leg as Mo Jue would become extremely sad.
As her legs ached from standing for a while, Ye Wei did not insist and sat next to Mo Jue. “Go back.” Mo Jue said as he frowned at her.
“Leave me alone,” Ye Wei harrumphed and insisted on seating next to him. Mo Jue knew that he could not convince her and decided to leave the conversation as it was. “What brought you up to the mountain?” He suddenly recalled.
“When I returned, I saw Big Boss Mo and company all rush up the mountain, and so did you. I was afraid that you would encounter danger, so I followed you up only to see that scene.” Ye Wei had long thought about her response.
Mo Jue did not completely believe what she said, but could not find a loophole.
“What was with Eleven? What happened to her?” It was Ye Wei’s turn to ask him.
Mo Jue did not hide anything from her and told her everything from start to end. Ye Wei’s face changed and she stood up angrily whilst pointing to the door of the operating. “How dare he treat a woman like this?! Where’s all his morality?” She sounded a few hints louder than usual.
Those few bullets in him were peanuts, really. Eleven ought to have not only shot him a few times, but also locked him up and have him experimented upon for ten-over days. How could he?! Ye Wei was flushed from the anger.
How much more utterly depraved could he get?
Wei Wei, that woman is Eleven, and that explains your righteous anger. If it were some random passerby, you would not even bat an eyelid. Kindness and righteousness vary from person to person.
Besides, the four of them were no saints and had no right to point fingers at each other.
Ye Wei was about to go berserk from the anger, and her insides felt as though they were aflame. She could not imagine what Eleven had endured, but knew for certain that she was in immense pain from her helter skelter look.
As though a huge rock pinned Ye Wei’s heart down, she could not breathe.
“Were you part of it when it began?”
“I only knew what happened later.”
“And you did not stop it!”
“Wei Wei…” Mo Jue flatly shouted out. “If you are beyond cure someday, and she is a precursor to your last hope, I would do what my brother did.”
Ye Wei was suddenly speechless.
While everybody approached the issue from different perspectives, they would hence have differing opinions and she could not blame Mo Jue.
Ye Wei sat down dejectedly and held her anger. “I and her must have been really close, no? Mo Jue, stop lying to me, okay?”
“…” Mo Jue did not respond to Ye Wei, and she was angry but could not act up. She could only suppress her feelings and tell herself that they still had a long way to go… She could slightly understand Mo Jue’s thoughts, but yet not quite understand him at the same time.
“It’s okay. I’ll save the question. Mo Jue, all I hope is that you do not deceive me too deeply as I do not believe that I will not recover my memory,” Ye Wei leant against the back of the chair and solemnly closed her eyes.
Ye Wei suddenly felt someone forcefully grab her and she subconsciously tried to push him away. In the next second, she was already in Mo Jue’s embrace whilst he sat on the chair and carried Ye Wei onto his legs. He pinned her head down and kissed her lips hard.
Ye Wei could not respond quickly enough and allowed him to kiss her. He agilely swept his tongue across her teeth and sucked against the tip of her tongue as though he was venting his hatred towards her. He gently bit on Ye Wei’s lips, and Ye Wei hit him out of the pain.
Mo Jue still did not let go but continued kissing her as his breathing became quicker and harsher.
While they were in a somewhat compromising posture on the long benches in the hospital, she was sitting on his leg and wrapped herself around him like a vine. However one looked at them, it did not seem particularly NSFW.
Two nurses from afar saw them and shook their heads at how unwholesome they were as they quickly scurried by with embarrassed looks. Ye Wei noticed the girls’ reddened faces and knew that she was nowhere better than them.
After a long while, Mo Jue was satiated and then slowly released Ye Wei as his burning lips gently rubbed against Ye Wei’s reddened lips. “Wei Wei, don’t leave me If not…” He hoarsely replied.
His somewhat deeper voice was a little unclear, and she could somewhat make out ‘die’ from it. Ye Wei seemed a little uncertain as Mo Jue’s emotions were too intense whilst Ye Wei preferred them in a more gradual and gentle manner.
Like smoke, a more intense smoke signified a shorter fire.
She did not like the cold that followed after the fire.
As somebody who did not prefer stability, she was as wild as the wind and could not be certain of how long she would remain by a person. Ye Wei hence did not answer the question.
Like before, she did not answer and Mo Jue did not force her to commit an answer. He merely hugged her tightly and gently cared for her whilst lapping up her scent.
“Mo Jue, did Mo Ye and Eleven know each other from before?” Ye Wei asked Mo Jue.
“Don’t talk about them, they’ve nothing to do with us,” Mo Jue sounded a little rough as he did not like Ye Wei mentioning Eleven day in day out. He wondered whether he, or Eleven, was Ye Wei’s husband.
‘Hmmph!’
Ye Wei could not make out Mo Jue’s childish mindset, and all she wanted was the truth. After asking the same question several times, Mo Jue was slightly vexed and shook his head whilst replying ‘no’. If Eleven and his brother knew each other, they would not have spent this much effort getting closer to them.
Ye Wei tucked her lips and did not ask any more questions.
After a few hours, the operating theater light was turned off and the nurses pushed Meng Lianying and Mo Ye out with Claire anda few other doctors in tow. Claire and the other doctors gave some instructions solemnly and everybody – old or young – nodded respectfully.
Mo Jue went up and saw that Mo Ye was still asleep from the anesthesia. The doctor said that Mo Ye would only wake up tomorrow and his life was in no more danger. The doctor also said that Mo Ye would be able to use his legs, and told Mo Jue not to worry.
He heaved a sigh of relief as he saw a pale Mo Ye lie on the bed, a scene he was not used to. In his memory, his brother was never like that – he was instead high -above and all mighty.
Ye Wei was not concerned and did not even look at Mo Ye and Meng Lianying as she sat aside waiting for Mo Jue to finish his visitation before returning to the mansion.
The three doctors surrounding Claire went over, and Meng Lianying was wheeled into the ICU whilst Mo Ye was wheeled into the VIP ward. Mo Jue asked about their exact conditions.
“First Master is by and large fine, and the bullet to Miss Lianling’s abdomen almost hit her vital organs. Her exsanguination, along with the toxins acting up in her, caused several complications that make the situation she’s currently in slightly tackier. We’re wheeling her into the ICU to check her up, and she will be fine once she makes it through tonight.”
Mo Jue nodded whilst Claire sighed and was at a loss for words. He had never operated on the brothers for years, and he thought he would never have to ever operate on them anymore. Little did he expect…
The situation to be this severe. Mo Jue did not avoid Ye Wei and asked him about Eleven’s condition. “She is no longer meaningfully human. The instability of the toxins in her have made her strong enough to wreck utter havoc, and god knows what else those toxins can do to her. For all you know, those toxins could mutate in a harmful manner and utterly destroy her and perhaps change her looks. These are things I cannot predict,” Claire honestly replied.
“Could it be this serious?”
Claire smiled. “The situation at hand is way more serious than the basic situation I’ve described. Second Master, people have been studying viruses and DNA, and according to my knowledge, an American bioweapons research firm has been researching on cyborgs that are augmented from human DNA and viruses. Hearsay has it that they had some results, but most did not know how the virus mutated. A friend of mine once told me that most of the mutations were harmful, and they did create a killing machine that lacked thought and emotion – an utterly obedient killing machine, for that matter. So…” He looked at Ye Wei. “You have to be mentally prepared.”
Ye Wei felt a chill in her heart and did not say anything else. Mo Jue became solemn and flatly said, “Claire, you don’t have to make all these too clear to my brother for now. You understand me?”
Claire thought about it and nodded his head.
Ye Wei coldly smiled. “You are sure an utterly filial brother.”
Mo Jue did not rebut her and Claire looked at them before finding a suitable reason to break away. Members of The Top Terrorist Organization the Mo brothers found themselves tangled up with were either a blessing or a curse.
He sighed again. It’s all up to Eleven now.
