Mo Jue held her tightly in his arms. He knew that Ye Wei didn’t want others to see her tears, and he didn’t take the initiative to wipe them either. He merely hugged her tightly. At this moment, all the hatred and obsession were gone.
Wei Wei cried…
Her tears stabbed him like needles. No matter what happened, he had never seen her cry once. Ye Wei, whom he knew, was so strong that even if one tortured her, she would not shed a tear.
He only felt pain in his heart. He had never felt this much pain before, not even when she told him to get out of her life. He had never felt so sorry for her either.
Ye Wei was so independent that it was rare for her to act like a child. There was no chance for him to feel sorry for her at all. Ever since she had hurt her leg, she was obviously more distressed, and he would do anything to cheer her up every time she frowned or was unhappy.
In ancient times, the king could tolerate criticisms from his people or even destroy the country just to get the smile of the beauty. If the beauty was unhappy, betraying the world was nothing.
“Wei Wei…” Mo Jue straightened her long hair, which had just been washed. It still smelled good. He missed her smell and held her tightly in his arms.
In fact, he could be very gentle too.
As long as she gave him the chance to.
This tough heart that had been beating for her was willing to become tender for her.
At this moment, he realized that if forcing her to stay by his side would take her smile and happiness away from her, perhaps… Perhaps he should let her go. His mind began to waver.
He had never had those thoughts before. He had never thought to let her go as long as she was happy. What made him change? Was it because of her depression?
He didn’t understand.
However, he did not want her to leave him. He would do his best to keep her by his side.
‘Wei Wei, would you give me a chance?’
Ye Wei slowly reached out her hand and wrapped her arms around his waist. Tears soaked his clothes.
Ye Wei tossed and turned at night. She couldn’t sleep well. She had applied medicine after dinner, but the medicine was so strong that she felt that her wound was burning. Claire had prescribed some herbs for her, which were different from the prescriptions by the hospital in Muscat.
As soon as she lay down, she felt her leg burning. The heat rushed to her foot, and Ye Wei felt extremely uncomfortable. She was also sweating a little.
Mo Jue felt sorry for her and called Claire immediately to ask if there was any way to get rid of the pain. Claire told him that it was normal to feel so, and she should try to bear the pain since the medicine was effective for her wound.
Ye Wei was embarrassed. The wound really hurt, but it was not unbearable. At most, it was just hard for her to fall asleep as the feeling was obvious. However, it was not to the extent that he would need to call and disturb Claire.
When had she become so coquettish?
“Stop embarrassing me. Since I can’t sleep, you should sleep next door,” Ye Wei said. It was almost midnight and she couldn’t bear to see him suffer together with her.
“I won’t go!” Mo Jue refused immediately. He held her and said, “I can’t sleep without hugging you.”
Ye Wei glanced at him and said, “I’m not a sleeping pill.”
“Of course you’re not a sleeping pill. I’d have swallowed you if you were,” Mo Jue groaned and said. He began to stroke her waist, sending an obvious message.
Ye Wei was speechless. They had shared the same bed every day, but he knew his place and had only tried to take advantage of her a few times. It was the first time he had sent her such an obvious hint.
She was not a duplicitous person. However, she did not reject him not because she wanted to play hard to get. She just found his reaction interesting and couldn’t help teasing him. Actually, Mo Jue didn’t dare to do anything overboard either.
Her body was in bad shape, so he had tried to restrain himself.
If she remembered correctly, she was Mo Jue’s first woman. Ye Wei smiled. When he first asked to do it with her in Italy, he was like a hungry wolf that was hunting for his meal. He had asked her for it several times every day, which was almost like a routine.
Sometimes, when she visited him in his study room after shopping with Cloud at noon, he would ask for it without considering where they were. There was once they were caught by Wind and Cloud, and Ye Wei would keep a safe distance from him whenever she entered his study room ever since.
