Chapter 746: Untitled
The two of them then did it in the room for a moment. Eleven ultimately had her ways to make him that bit more comfortable. Mo Ye, like a cat who couldn’t wait to get more, kissed Eleven on her cheek several times.
Eleven grabbed the blanket and covered her half-naked body. She smiled while looking at Big Boss Mo who was acting half-dead. “Wake up. It’s time for dinner soon.”
As the sun set, the room became a tad darker.
Mo Ye lazily leaned against the wall. “Do you think they will join us for dinner later?”
“What does Mo Jue and Wei Wei joining us for dinner have anything to do with us?” Was there any clear association? How could she not know? How could she not know!? Eleven secretly smiled. Chances were that Ye Wei and Mo Jue would not be waking up anytime soon.
Given Mo Jue’s badass prowess, chances were that they were still at it, no?
Eleven shook her head, opened the closet, and took her clothes into the bathroom to wash up. After horsing around with him, she was sticky all around and felt uncomfortable. Since Eleven was someone who preferred cleanliness, she comfortably settled in the bathtub. Mo Ye entered the bathroom soon after.
He took off his clothes in a flash and went to squeeze in the bathtub with Eleven. Just as he sat down, most of the water flowed out of the bathtub. Eleven was slightly taken aback.
…
The two of them took four to five times longer to shower than any other person. When they came out, Eleven’s face was blushing and she seemed unconfident…
…
Ping-er’s eyes looked at her seniors and Bai Ye. Why were they the only few at dinner? Ye Wei and Mo Jue were not present. Neither were Mo Ye and Eleven, nor Chu Li and Rong Yan…
The three couples all disappeared at once.
“Aren’t they hungry?” Ping-er asked shamelessly.
Seeing that Bai Ye did not know what had happened, Ping-er happily described what had happened in the afternoon and Bai Ye was lost for words. It was hence little wonder why they were not present for dinner. Thankfully, the couples lived around each other, so they would only disturb each other’s peace and not affect the others.
It was actually Jason and Black J, the two lonely singles, who were the most aggrieved. Ping-er showed her consolation toward these single and lonely men.
Mo Shitian and Su Ruyu often had dinner in their own courtyard. As the divide between Su Ruyu and Su Ruhua had yet to be cleared, Su Ruhua, not wanting Su Ruyu to see her and become vexed, remained in her room.
Dinner today seemed a tad quieter than usual.
“Uh, I just recalled something. Would Eleven’s virus allow her to…” Jason’s eye blinked. As he suddenly recalled that, Bai Ye raised his eyebrows. That seemed to be the case…
Then, they…
Everybody’s thoughts began moving in that direction. Did it mean that Big Boss Mo was so courageous that he was not afraid of the virus?
Black J gave a thumbs-up. ‘Damn, he has balls!’
…
“Bai Ye, shall we really act as per Chu Li’s plans?” Jason asked. “I’m not particularly at ease with it.”
“What’s on your mind?”
“We may be short on numbers. Would Su Man and you be able to protect them at your place?” Since Rong Yan and Ye Wei were remaining, they needed somebody to protect them.
While Black J wanted to remain behind, he was afraid that Kahn would see through their ruse. They were indeed short on numbers.
“As for the Mafia, Mo Jue’s Knights of the Apocalypse should be able to arrive tomorrow night. Mo Jue will have at least two of them remain to protect Ye Wei, so they, along with Su Man and me, should be sufficient. Since Kahn will have most of his men hunkered down at the mansion halfway up the mountain, he has few men he can recall,” Bai Ye plainly said. All that said, Chu Li’s plan was as meticulous as it could be.
All that remained was for everybody to be present before carefully planning the next steps to deal with Kahn so that casualties could be minimized.
Neither Mo Shitian nor Eleven had absolute confidence to win against Kahn, so they had to act in concert to end his threat once and for all.
Tonight, Black J and Eleven would gather information on Kahn’s actual strength and confirm his numbers. It was imperative they confirmed everything. Black J had long prepared everything and was waiting to leave with Eleven in the night.
They could not afford to act haphazardly without confirming Kahn’s actual strength and capabilities. The mantra of awareness of both self and the competition was key to victory was time-tested.
Ping-er looked at them with boredom. She was starting to miss her Senior Ye Wei. If she went up to look for her senior, would she ruin Second Master Mo’s throes of passion and end up getting killed by him? She wondered…
On the second floor, Eleven had finished wearing her clothes and drying her hair. Mo Ye started acting like a douche and had Eleven help him with his clothes. Eleven was extremely startled. Didn’t he have hands and feet? The helpless Eleven could not stand up to Mo Ye’s coaxing and had no choice but to help him wear his black shirt and button every single button. Mo Ye enjoyed how her dainty hands got to work on his chest. He had a very subtle and pleased smile.
Eleven, oh, Eleven… She was extremely adorable. While she seemed colder, emotionless, and ruthless when she struck, she quietly paid it forward for the people whom she cared for without expecting anything in return. She was also exceptionally gentle.
While she had her own opinion, ideas, and principles, she was extremely gentle before the people whom she loved.
It was not about how gentle she portrayed herself to be, but how tender her heart actually was.
Looks were deceiving. Thankfully, he did not pass over such an adorable and lovely girl.
Mo Ye gently smiled. He landed a kiss on Eleven’s hair whorl as she just happened to button up all his buttons. He was looking very good!
Mo Ye could not get any more handsome in a shirt!
Mo Ye landed another kiss on Eleven’s lips, prepared to bring her down for dinner. Suddenly, Eleven stopped in her steps and slightly frowned. Her breathing became hastier, and she suddenly clutched her abdomen.
He was shocked. “Eleven, what’s happened?”
Eleven suddenly collapsed, and Mo Ye keenly grabbed her collapsing form. Eleven was clutching her abdomen, and her back was becoming numb from the pain. Her knuckles became pale from a tight clutch.
“It really hurts!” There seemed to be something in her body that was tearing away at her organs. The searing pain was unbearable, and beads of sweat started falling down her forehead.
“Eleven!” Mo Ye roared in a slight panic.
What was happening to her?
Her face became deathly white. She suddenly opened her eyes and coughed out blood.
His black shirt was covered in blood…
Eleven’s virus had taken a turn for the worst!
Following Su Ruyu and Su Man stabilizing her condition throughout the night, they were barely able to prevent the virus in her from spreading and deteriorating. They had been unable to find a cure, and Su Ruyu had yet to develop the actual antidote.
When they came out of Su Man’s laboratory, Su Ruyu and Su Man did not look particularly good. Dawn started to break. Even Ye Wei and Mo Jue heard about Eleven and rushed over. Everybody gathered at the central atrium. Mo Ye and Ye Wei wanted to see Eleven, but Su Ruyu stopped them.
“You still can’t see her for now,” Su Ruyu solemnly replied. Mo Ye was extremely anxious, and Su Ruyu almost could not stop him. She had to tell him. “Mo Ye, calm down.”
“Calm down!? Mom, just let me see her, okay? I promise I will not affect her or you. I just want to see her.” Having been in the dark about her condition for a night, Mo Ye felt as though he were hanging off a cliff the entire night with no hope of seeing the sunrise. Every second that passed was a nick on his heart.
How could he calm down at this juncture? His hands, covered in her blood, had yet to be washed. The memories of her coughing blood into his hands were still fresh and agonizing… How could he endure this agony?
“I said no!” Su Ruyu looked straight at Mo Ye. “If you are that concerned for her, then do nothing. I’ll work a way out.” She coldly told Mo Ye.
“Is she in bad shape again?” Mo Ye panicked. Why wasn’t he allowed to see her? Why?! He could not help but allow his thoughts to drift to why he could not see Eleven. Did her looks change again?
Just how badly did her condition deteriorate?
He really wanted to know how bad her condition had become. He had seen her in extreme suffering and dejection, and he had seen her when she was bone-thin. Would she end up being the same once again?
Mo Ye really wished that he was the one bearing all these pain and agony on Eleven’s behalf. If it weren’t for him, if it weren’t for that f***ing wretch in him, Eleven would still be fine. She would not be injured and like how she was now.
Mo Ye really hated himself for losing his mind and doing something like that. How could he allow his beloved woman to suffer such pain? While he was always resolute, this was the first time he utterly regretted his resolution.
Had he hesitated that bit more, this tragedy would not have happened.
Eleven…
Eleven…
The regret in his heart welled up over and over, surpassing all the panic he had experienced in his entire lifetime. His heart, as heavy as an anvil, began to dully hurt.
“The virus is already under control, and she is now in a coma and will need rest. Even if you see her now, you’ll just see her asleep and can’t do jack,” Su Man simply said. “If you are really worried about her, just don’t disturb her and let her rest.”
Mo Ye looked at Su Ruyu and Su Man with some doubt. They wouldn’t lie to him that Eleven was fine, right? “Is her life in danger? Mom, tell me. Is Eleven’s life in danger?”
Su Ruyu remained silent. After a hectic night, her face was pale. It might be due to fatigue, worry, or fear. Her deathly pale face seemed slightly less so under the morning sun.
Her silence made Mo Ye’s heart even colder…
She acquiesced.
He suddenly pushed Su Ruyu aside and dashed in. Su Ruyu only gave a gesture. Mo Shitian darted ahead and stopped him with a frown of displeasure. “Didn’t you hear what your mother said?”
“Dad, let me in! Please!” Mo Ye, with a hint of urgency in his voice, did not sound as calm as he used to be. Mo Shitian was unfazed and would not allow Mo Ye to go in unless Su Ruyu gave her permission.
Ye Wei had as worried a look on her face. “Master, is the situation very bad?”
Su Ruyu nodded, and everybody fell silent. They had expected the situation to be this serious. When Mo Ye carried Eleven down, she was already in a coma. That, along with how the experts, Su Ruyu and Su Man, took an entire night to stabilize her condition alluded to how bad the situation at hand was.
As though his body was filled with lead, Mo Ye took heavier steps. His eyes were filled with a deathly calm.
“You’ve all been waiting up all night. Go back and rest,” Su Ruyu said as she looked at them.
Given the situation at hand, who else could sleep? If Eleven would never wake up, they would certainly be very worried. Besides, as their final battle with Kahn was just a day away, they were at a loss due to Eleven’s mishap.
There were challenges aplenty on both fronts.
“I’ll patch her up. I promise!” Su Ruyu said.
Su Ruyu directed her words at them, especially at Mo Ye. She held Mo Ye’s shoulders and stood before him. “Mo Ye, I am even more worried and anxious about her recovery than you. That said, you really should not disturb her. Go back to rest.”
“Mom!” Mo Ye replied barely audibly.
“I promise that she will not die,” Su Ruyu said determinedly. Her cold face was full of determination. “You don’t believe me?”
Mo Ye felt his heart slightly sink. He naturally believed that Su Ruyu’s medical skills, fighting ability, and character couldn’t get any better. Thus, he knew that Eleven wouldn’t die since she had said so. However, he also knew that Eleven was in very bad shape.
All he wanted was to see her to calm the anxiousness and helplessness in his heart.
“Stop thinking about it. With Su Man and me around, Eleven will be fine. Chu Li, get on with your plans. There must be no oversight. We must take out Kahn once and for all,” Su Ruyu said firmly.
“Yes, I know.” Chu Li nodded.
Mo Jue tapped Mo Ye’s shoulders and hinted to him not to be too anxious. As Mo Ye’s panic started to settle, he asked worriedly,” Mom, is she fine now? When will she wake up?”
Su Ruyu was slightly taken aback and gave some thought. “She will be awake by nighttime.”
He was slightly relieved. “Can I see her when she has awoken?”
“We’ll see about it when she’s awake.” Su Ruyu did not directly answer the question.
“Master, with the virus in Eleven’s body under very good control all along, such a problem had never happened. How could Eleven’s condition suddenly deteriorate without any warning?” Ye Wei gently frowned.
