Chapter 728: Untitled
Eleven had been guarding Su Ruyu’s courtyard until midnight. Mo Ye asked, “Do you want to get some sleep upstairs?”
“No!”
Mo Ye frowned worriedly. “Master is in a bad mood. I want to stay with her for a little while more.” Eleven whispered.
“I… Beauty Mom is also in a bad mood today,” Mo Ye said calmly. He wanted to call her ‘mom’, but it might be hard for him to call her that again in the future, although he felt that he was closer to her than Ruyu. He was at a loss.
Eleven didn’t say anything. At this moment, Mo Shitian walked toward them from the winding corridor. Both Mo Ye and Eleven got up immediately, and Eleven held Mo Shitian back. “Dad,” Mo Ye said. Mo Shitian’s gaze fell on the door. “Get lost!” He stared at Eleven coldly.
“I’m afraid that I can’t!” Eleven said coldly. She was firm and determined. Mo Shitian reached out his arm and attacked Eleven like a flash of lightning. Mo Ye was shocked. Eleven retreated quickly and threw a punch back.
‘Dad, Eleven…” Mo Ye looked at them anxiously. Those two just really had to start a fight in the winding corridor. He didn’t know who to help and watched them by the side. Moreover, since his skills were taught by Mo Shitian, he definitely wouldn’t be able to defeat him. They were so fast that he could hardly see them, let alone interfering.
With a loud bang, Mo Shitian broke a white jade pillar in the corridor with his fist. However, he acted as if nothing had happened. He clenched his fist again and continued to attack Eleven with his swift and cruel moves. Mo Ye was frightened. Mo Shitian’s skills were actually on par with Eleven’s. It was really scary.
To be exact, Eleven was fighting against Mo Shitian with her speed and strength. She was far inferior to Mo Shitian in terms of experience and skills. After a few rounds, her weaknesses were exposed.
Mo Shitian sneered coldly and sped toward Eleven. A gush of wind could be felt and Mo Ye was shocked. Eleven took a few steps back immediately and managed to dodge him.
Because he was a senior, Mo Ye’s father, and Su Ruyu’s lover, Eleven only defended herself instead of attacking, making her look bad. She gritted her teeth. ‘F*** it, I’m going to attack.’
Not attacking made her look bad, so Eleven started to retaliate.
…
The loud bang alarmed Bai Ye and Su Man, who were nearby, and they walked out of the door. Su Man tucked his lips. He had guessed that Mo Shitian would be unable to restrain himself and go to Su Ruyu in the middle of the night.
Considering his personality, he wouldn’t be able to wait for long.
Bai Ye face-palmed upon seeing the broken jade pillar, but he was amazed by the amount of strength Mo Shitian had. Bai Ye asked, “Can you try to calm them down?”
They were in the Su’s mansion after all. Mo Shitian was really disrespectful.
“Hmmph, do you think he would listen to me?”
“No!”
Suddenly, a cold voice came from Su Ruyu’s door. “Eleven, go to sleep.”
Their fight had woken Su Ruyu up.
Upon hearing Su Ruyu’s voice, Eleven and Mo Shitian, who were fighting intensely, stopped fighting immediately. Then, Su Ruyu left, and Mo Shitian vanished at the door. Mo Ye rushed over to Eleven instantly and held her hand. “Are you injured?”
Eleven shook her head. “I’m fine. Let’s go back.”
Both of them turned back and saw Su Man and Bai Ye. The four of them didn’t say anything and went back to their respective rooms.
Eleven asked worriedly, “Will they get into a fight at this hour?”
“I don’t know.”
“They’re your parents. Why aren’t you concerned about them?”
“Will they not fight if I am?”
Eleven was lost for words.
Su Ruyu sat quietly in the courtyard and looked at the person who had barged in coldly. Her bloodshot eyes were scarily red and swollen, as if she hadn’t slept a wink, and she gave off a cold and harsh vibe.
Su Ruyu’s gaze was unusually calm. Mo Shitian frowned. He was feeling uneasy and scared, as if he knew that she had made a major decision. At that moment, he knew exactly what that decision was.
“Ruyu, what did she tell you?”
“The child who had died then was yours,” Su Ruyu said coldly, while Mo Shitian frowned. He had already guessed it. Su Ruyu sneered coldly. His heart ached greatly and he stared at her straight. It felt as if she was surrounded by a cold and solemn layer of vacuum, where nobody could enter.
“Do you hate me?” Mo Shitian walked closer to her. He held her hands tightly and disallowed her to avoid his gaze. “Ruyu, I didn’t cheat on you.”
“I know,” Su Ruyu said coldly. “You were just out of your mind. Well, I should be able to understand… I can…”
Suddenly, she started laughing hysterically. “Maybe, I was wrong right from the start. I shouldn’t have started anything with you then in Italy. If you had told me that you knew my sister and that she loved you, all these probably wouldn’t have happened. Mo Shitian, have I made a mistake?”
Her mistake was to fall in love with him. If they hadn’t met then, the Su family would still be the same, her parents would still be alive, she wouldn’t have fallen out with Su Ruhua, and she would probably have a good relationship with her brother too.
“No. I am the one in the wrong. I knew that you were Ruhua’s younger sister, but I didn’t tell you because I was afraid that you would leave me. Everything that has happened isn’t your fault. We were in the wrong. You didn’t do anything wrong,” Mo Shitian said. He couldn’t bear to see Ruyu torture herself. She already had enough all these years.
Su Ruyu had mixed feelings. She felt terrible. The more she thought about it, the more regretful she was. A great mistake that Ruhua had made in a moment of weakness, Mo Shitian’s concealment, Fu Jin’s scheme…
“I don’t blame you,” Su Ruyu said. She turned around and took a glance at all the camellias in the courtyard. ‘Su Man is so considerate.’ Although he had no idea who she was, he kept the courtyard the same like it was and had taken care of the camellias well.
She knew that Ruhua told him to do so. Su Ruyu’s heart hurt as if it was cut by a knife. They were so close to each other then, to the extent that she had never fought with Ruhua or had any complaints when her parents were biased to Ruhua. How did things become like this for them?
Because of a man!
How ridiculous.
“Ruyu, let’s leave here together. We can go anywhere. I know you don’t like it here.” Mo Shitian couldn’t bear to see her unhappy.
Su Ruyu said, “Who said that I don’t like it here? This is my home. Why would I dislike it?”
“Ruyu, stop saying things that you don’t mean.”
Su Ruyu turned her head. Looking at Mo Shitian, she said, “Mo Shitian, I don’t blame you for this. However, we are done here.”
