Chapter 748: Untitled

Mo Ye held Eleven’s hand and stroked her pale face with his other trembling hand. Her face was very pale, terrifying even. He seemed to have seen Eleven when he tortured her.

His heart, pricked at the moment, was very painful.

“Please don’t do this. I’m fine.” She weakly smiled. While her pale lips were indeed terrifying, she seemed to smile gently as though the virus in her did not faze her.

“I’m sorry! Eleven, I’m sorry!” Mo Ye planted his face against the back of her hand in utter regret. He knew that his apologies, however many, would not be enough to bring back her health.

This was his fault. All his fault.

“Mo Ye, it’s all over. I’m past it, and you should stop blaming yourself,” Eleven gently said. “If you bring it up again and I recall the past as a result… You don’t want me to hate you, do you?”

She had spent much time thinking it through before coming to terms with it. She hoped that they would be able to forget it and move on.

Despite knowing that his excessive brutality was the cause behind her catching the virus, she did not blame him. She really didn’t.“No, no. I would rather you hate me.” Eleven felt the back of her hand become damp. She shuddered and leaned forward to hug Mo Ye. He was unable to control his emotions and held her so tightly that he almost crushed her.

She could feel his regret and hatred.

“All has passed. Master said that she can save me and patch me up. Since it’s just a matter of time, don’t feel too bad about it. Once these all have passed, she will wholeheartedly focus on neutralizing the virus in me. I will be fine,” Eleven gently said. She really trusted Su Ruyu. The latter would certainly be able to save her if she said so. Despite the virus flaring up and causing her immense misery, she was not worried about her life being in danger.

“We still have a lot of time to look forward to. If you really feel that you owe me something, you can always gradually repay it,” Eleven said it especially gently and slowly as she was not used to such gentle words.

She hoped that Mo Ye would be able to completely let go of it.

And make no more mention of it.

“I will,” Mo Ye hoarsely replied. He realized that he was hugging Eleven too tightly and could not help but let go of his hands. However, he could not bear to let Eleven go. When he saw Eleven’s pale face, Mo Ye could only feel bad but did not clearly show it as he did not want Eleven to feel bad as well.

Mo Ye asked her whether she was hurting elsewhere, and she shook her head. The scene last night scared the daylights out of Mo Ye, which was Mo Ye’s first time experiencing the horror of death.In that instant, he feared how death would separate them for good.

“Master told me you wanted to see me so urgently.” The two of them hugged, and Eleven, who could not bear to see him so miserable, settled on a random conversation topic.

“Uh, Mom did not allow me to see you because it would inconvenience you. I was just seeing you and wouldn’t disturb you.”

“Just listen to whatever my master says,” Eleven said. “She has her reasons for not allowing you to see me, and aren’t you seeing me now? I am fine…”

Mo Ye gently smiled and hugged her even tighter.

“Are you hungry?”

Eleven shook her head. Although she did not feel hungry at all, she just had a nutritional jab and thus still wanted some hot food. Su Ruyu told her that she would prepare some porridge for her.

“If I run into Meng Lianying, I’ll ask her for that antidote. Whatever the price, I want it,” Mo Ye solemnly said. If there were an antidote, the virus in her would have long been gone and she wouldn’t have to suffer agonizingly while fearing that her condition could take a turn for the worse anytime.

He recalled how Meng Lianying went to look for him when he was in Italy. Back then, on account of the five years they had spent together, he did not want to kill her despite how she deceived him.Besides, she told him about the antidote.

She claimed that Kahn had the antidote, of which there were two pills. She had already consumed one, and consuming the other would completely cure her of the virus so that she would not have to fear it annually.

He asked her about the antidote, and she smiled, saying that she could help him get it, but only on a condition…

She wanted to bear his children!

Meng Lianying said that as long as he was willing to have a child with her, she would allow Eleven and him to get together and would leave them alone for good. The child would be for her keepsake and she would disappear to a faraway place.

Without thinking, he rejected Meng Lianying.

For want of the antidote, he would not sell out his body, and it was especially so for Eleven that he insisted. If Eleven knew about it, she would leave him without saying another word.

To exchange their bodies for the antidote, it was an utter insult.

When he did not agree, Meng Lianying merely coldly smiled and left after telling him that he would regret it someday.

The antidote was extremely important to Eleven.Whenever he recalled the incident, he did not regret not dealing with Meng Lianying. Had he given it a little more thought then, he would have collected her blood so that Su Man could extract the constituents of the antidote from it and make formulating the antidote less challenging.

To think that he did not think of that back then! When he thought about it now, he really regretted not thinking about it.

Having heard him, Eleven was taken aback but still remained calm. She did not expect Meng Lianying to propose such a deal to Mo Ye: a child for an antidote pill!

Thankfully, Mo Ye had not agreed to it. If he had, it would have been akin to a slap in her face as the terms of the deal were a clear affront to her that she would rather not have.

Besides…

The children… She did not know whether she could bear children, and that was her emotional knot. If she knew that Meng Lianying and Mo Ye had children together, she would have a hang-up in her heart and would walk out of his life for good.

Since Mo Ye also wanted children, she must be the only person to carry his children.

“Meng Lianying… Gosh, I couldn’t imagine her stooping so low,” Eleven coldly said with hints of displeasure. “Mo Ye, can you promise me that you will not see her anymore?”“Definitely.” Mo Ye kissed her on the forehead and gently said, “I’ve not been in touch with her since long ago.”

He did not deceive Eleven. She seemed to have really given up on him and had not looked for him since then.

She should have given up on him.

No sooner had Eleven nodded than Mo Ye’s cell phone rang…
