Chapter 501: Wake-up Call

The wind was strong tonight and although the hurricane did not reach the island, but the island was still affected and there was a gale-force wind. As they were located beside the sea, the wind felt stronger than what was reported and all the fishing boats that heard the news had returned since afternoon.

There no were no stalls being set up along the streets and all the snacks and coral shops had closed. The island seemed to be very quiet and the wind had slowly became stronger. It was not obvious at first but became more obvious in the night as the wind kept blowing. All the windows were closed and the temperature in the room was just nice. Ye Wei looked at the island through the window and it was pitched-dark outside. The wind blew like a devil screaming.

It had been more than ten days since she came to the island and it had always been very peaceful and the weather were always good. There was no hurricane and this was the first time. Mo Jue told her that it was rare for this area to have a hurricane, although there were some sea area near them that were the centres of hurricane. The wind would usually not blow in this direction therefore they rarely felt the strong hurricane.

Ye Wei could already guessed from his calm explanation how strong the hurricane at sea must have been. The consequences would have been disastrous if there were people there.

She was not afraid of the hurricane, but the people travelling at sea.

What would she do if she was at sea and met with the hurricane? Eleven’s weak body would not be able to endure it and Ye Wei could only be worried and not know what to do. She was fretful and anxious the while night and stood at the window to look at the island. She could hear the waves roaring and felt frightened.

Mo Jue was not used to her being so anxious and forced her to rest on the bed. “You’re not allowed to think about it anymore. She will not die if she’s not meant to die.”

Ye Wei looked at him and did not reply.

It was too late to regret now. Ye Wei’s body was pressed against Mo Jue’s body as she listened to his strong heartbeat. She felt less anxious and said with a self-depreciating tone. “I would have left with her if I had known earlier.”

The man beside her breathed in heavily and she knew that he was angry even without looking up. That sinister look was fixed at her hair whorl and it was difficult for her to ignore. Ye Wei continued, “So that I won’t have to be so worried.”

She would rather die together with someone than being worried alone.

“Will you be worried if the person was me?” Mo Jue suddenly asked as he recalled what he was thinking of just now. He tried to change a way to communicate with her, instead of always making guesses.

Ye Wei smiled. “What kind of nonsense are you talking about, of course I will.”

Mo Jue had no more regrets and was instantly happy as he felt that her words were worth everything. The fire of anger he had just now seemed to have been extinguished by cold water. He could not help but hugged her tightly and slowly said. “Don’t worry, if she can escape from the glass house, it means that it is destine for her to live and she will be fine.”

Ye Wei nodded her head and tried hard to not think about it. However, she could not sleep and opened her eyes as she listened to the roaring wind outside the window and hoping that it would stop soon.

She could not fall asleep and Mo Jue could not sleep too and accompanied her. He got angry later into the night as after all, he did not liked the fact that there was someone so important to Ye Wei that she had to torture herself like this.

She had been tired for the whole day and her body would not be able to take it anymore if she stayed up for another night. One’s body would be tired if they thought too much and would eventually fall sick. Mo Jue tried to convince her to rest early for a few times but she still could not fall asleep.

“I’ll pour some milk for you.”

Mo Jue got up and Ye Wei suddenly said, “I want to drink alcohol.”

“Sure!”

Mo Jue replied and went downstairs. There were a few bottles of wine and he poured a glass of wine and put two sleeping pills in it and waited till it had dissolved before bringing it up. Ye Wei’s emotion was not stable and could not fall asleep, therefore she could only rely on the pills.

He did not ask Ye Wei as she would not have agreed if he had asked. He just thought that this would be better for Ye Wei.

Ye Wei drank the wine and wanted more, but Mo Jue did not allow. He hugged her so that she could sleep soundly. The sleeping pills worked and Ye Wei fell asleep after a while.

Mo Jue heaved a sigh of relief and hugged her to sleep feeling satisfied.

The next day morning, Claire called as Mo Ye was awake and wanted to meet Mo Jue. Mo Jue washed up and left a note for Ye Wei as she was still sleeping before going to the hospital.

It was a mess outside the mansion as there was a rainstorm yesterday night. The weather was good after the rainstorm, but the twigs and leaves on the floor were piled up. It was even more messy further away from the mansion.

It was a stormy day for the few of them yesterday and the rainstorm yesterday night suited the situation.

Mo Jue drove to the hospital and he heard Mo Ye scolding someone once he reached Mo Ye’s ward. Mo Jue thought that Mo Ye should be fine now as he had the energy to scold people. Claire also told Mo Jue that Meng Lianling had woken up and both of them were fine.

Mo Jue sae Ding Ke’s bitter face once he went into the room. Ding Ke looked at Mo Jue as if he had found his saviour and Mo Jue waved his hand to let him go out. This was what Ding Ke was waiting for and he did not even greet Mo Jue and went out in a panicky manner.

Mo Ye had woken up and he did not looked well as his face was pale. His eyes looked sinister like a devil and soften his gaze after he saw Mo Jue, although his tone was still bad. “I asked you to send someone to look for her, why didn’t you do it?”

Mo Jue replied. “Brother, what are you going to do after she’s back? Continue to test out the drugs on her for Meng Lianling? She had suffered a gun wound and her body cannot take it, therefore she did not have the energy to retaliate. Once she’s well, we are all going to die in her hands. It is better to let her go than catch her back.”

“Scoundrel!” Mo Ye scolded, his gaze like a knife. He stretched his wound and took a breath. He could not say the words he was about to say and only felt better after a while. He continued. “You’re getting more atrocious, are you complying with me but acting the opposite now?”

Mo Jue had agreed to catch her back, but he did not do anything.

“Sorry, Brother.” Mo Jue apologized. “I don’t want you to get hurt anymore.”

“I think it’s more true that you don’t want Ye Wei to be sad. You’re afraid that Eleven might hurt the relationship between you and Ye Wei if she’s back.” Mo Ye smiled as Mo Jue had disappointed him this time.

“You can say whatever you want as I will not deny it.” Mo Jue did not defend himself as he was indeed afraid that Eleven would come back and hurt his relationship with Ye Wei. But, the main reason was that he did not want Mo Ye to be injured again.

To Mo Jue, one concerned his relationship with Ye Wei and the other concerned Mo Ye’s life and obviously Mo Ye’s life was more important. It was alright if his relationship with Ye Wei was strained as he had a lot of time to patch up with her. But, he only had one brother and he would really be gone if he was dead.

Mo Ye realized that his tone was too bad and did not say anything else. One night had passed and she had left. He had just woken up and felt angry, but he felt better after venting it out. Eleven would not come back no matter how he scolded Mo Jue.

Mo Jue had been with him for more than twenty years and understood his expression. He knew that Mo Ye was no longer angry and asked. “Brother, do you know Eleven in the past?”

Mo Ye shook his head and wanted to say he did not know her, but he was not sure this time. Even Mo Jue realized that something was wrong with Eleven, so how could Mo Ye not have realized it. But, Mo Ye really could not remember when they had known each other.

He really could not remember anything, and this was what made Mo Ye puzzled.

“Do you think that both of us knew each other too?” Mo Ye asked and Mo Jue nodded. “Even Wei Wei felt this way. If not she will not… will not hate you so much.”

It seemed like they not only knew each other, but their relationship seemed to be close.

“I can’t remember.” Mo Ye suddenly covered his brows and looked anxious. “Damn woman, she only said half of it.”

How good would it be if she had said things clearly.

“Brother, think about it more carefully again. You have never forgotten anything about the past, so why would you forget one person or some event? Have you been hypnotized by someone?” Mo Jue raised his question bravely as this was the only reason that could explain why Mo Ye would forget something.

Just like how he had hypnotized Ye Wei before so that she could forget something. Unless someone had used the same method to hypnotize her so that she could remember it. But, it was rarely used as it was harmful to the body.

“No!” Mo Ye replied confidently. “Who has the ability to hypnotize me without me knowing at all?”

Mo Jue thought about it and seemed like it made sense.

Maybe they had guessed wrongly. Eleven might not know Mo Ye.

“How’s your leg?” Mo Jue tried to change the subject after seeing how Mo Ye was troubled by this question.

“Claire said that it is fine and I just need to rest for a while.” Mo Ye replied faintly and did not care about his injury. He was still trying to recall everything about Eleven.

They did not know each other for long and had never met before in the past.

Weird…

“Was there a rainstorm yesterday?” Mo Ye suddenly asked.

Mo Jue suddenly became serious and nodded his had as he told Mo Ye what happened yesterday. Mo Ye’s face looked even worse and could be described as being scary. Mo Jue was smart and kept quiet.

Mo Ye’s face looked sinister for a long time.

Mo Jue said. “Brother, I think you should not use Eleven as the cure anymore as there is no results after so many days. It is also impossible to look for her now as The Top Terrorist Organization will definitely hide all news of her and it will be harder to find her. We can only let fate decide if we can find a cure.”

Mo Ye listened and did not reply so Mo Jue did not know if Mo Ye heard what he had said. Mo Ye stared at his blanket for a long time before replying. “Do you think she can escape from such a big rainstorm?”

Mo Jue was startled and looked at Mo Ye as if he was a creature. Since when did Mo Ye cared about a woman that was like their enemy? Other than feeling shocked, Mo Jue felt that it was eerie.

Mo Jue did not reply and Mo Ye looked up as his face and got angry after thinking about what he had asked. Mo Jue reacted quickly and replied before Mo Ye got angry. “Her time is not up yet, so she will be fine.”

Mo Ye did not know how to reply and did not even know if he should be angry. Mo Jue secretly looked at his brother and did not want to say something.

Mo Ye thought of something else. “You instruct the rest that we have to change our base. Since Eleven has escaped, this place is no longer safe as The Top Terrorist Organization will definitely come here.”

“I know.” Meng Lianling replied and tried to ask.” Brother, Meng Lianling is awake now and her condition is stable.”

Mo Ye nodded. “Okay, I got it.”

Mo Jue was shocked as it meant that Mo Ye did not know that Meng Lianying had woken up? Was he thinking about Eleven all this while? Mo Jue was shocked and Mo Ye sneered. “I would have forgotten if you did not remind me, why did Ye Wei go up the mountain.?”

Mo Jue repeated Ye Wei’s reason and Mo Ye scolded him. “Only a fool like you will believe her words.”

Stupid beyond hope!

Mo Jue’s stand was firm and said firmly. “Brother, I trust her and you should not blame her as Ye Wei really does not know anything. She just happened to dream of Eleven one day and felt familiar, therefore she decided to help Eleven.”

“To the point where she had to shoot Lianling?” Mo Ye was clear about what happened at the beach and he always had something against Ye Wei. But because of Mo Jue… what a sin.

“Shoot me if you want to return the shot.” Mo Jue said flatly and suddenly, something white flashed past his eyes and a pillow came smashing at him. Mo Jue caught it calmly and looked at Mo Ye peacefully.

“You’re useless.” Mo Ye scolded, as if it was a pain to look at Mo Jue any longer. “Scram!”

Mo Jue did not listen to him and instead asked, “Brother, shouldn’t you ask Meng Lianying something?”

Mo Ye paused and narrowed his eyes at him. There were only two of them in the room and Mo Jue had nothing to hide. “Don’t you think she is hiding something from you with regards to Eleven? She hid it from you for some time, but technically speaking, why would she fight with Eleven at the beach if they did not know each other?”

Mo Ye thought about it and said. “Lianling said before that Eleven had killed her sister. Therefore, she had been wanted to take revenge and they had known each other for a few years.”

“Don’t you think it’s weird?” Mo Jue sneered. “Brother, do you still remember what happened three years ago? A female agent from Russia injured Meng Lianling and she went to take revenge, but she ended up getting injured again and asked you for help. She was only injured and asked you for help, but Eleven killed her sister, why did she not tell us about it? There is no reason for this.”

Mo Jue’s words suddenly made Mo Ye realized that something was wrong. Mo Ye’s heart became more heavy as Mo Jue made sense, but why?
