Chapter 605: The Underworld Version of Romeo and Juliet

Eleven stopped struggling. She had resented him at first, but most of her hatred had disappeared half a year ago when he took so many gunshots for her at the foot of the mountain. She felt his passionate love and finally had reason to persuade herself to forget past injuries. She thought that maybe they could have another chance. She also imagined that if Mo Ye survived…

She was willing to give them a chance.

During the period of time when he went by Anthony and she went by Little Seven, she had once thought that it would be nice if Mo Ye could treat her like how Anthony did. Little did she know that Anthony was Mo Ye, and she had fallen in love with him twice.

She didn’t want to lie to herself and say that she didn’t love him. She loved him very much, but they just couldn’t be together. She was afraid of getting hurt in the future, and she was also scared that their identities would make things harder for them. She had a lot of considerations, so she had decided to end things with him then.

No one owed anyone anything, and she didn’t hate him anymore. If she loved him, she would hide her feelings in her heart. Becoming strangers was the best ending for them.

However, she didn’t expect that the scene at the foot of the mountain gave her such a big impact that she began to think otherwise. If he was alive, she would really like to love him again. Such thoughts popped up in her mind countless times.

After she heard the news of his death, she felt that life was hopeless and desperate. Knowing that he was alive again made her so happy, but she had to pretend to be calm in front of Ye Wei.

In fact, she was overjoyed…

That day, while holding his hand, she had even thought of staying with him if he woke up and asked.

Unfortunately, something so cruel happened just in a twinkling of an eye. She could hardly accept it, and she wanted to delete her feelings totally. She loved him, but he hurt her family. She just could not accept it.

But now, the misunderstanding was solved. She couldn’t help but feel relieved. The hatred that had accumulated seemed to disperse when they hugged.

Could she really love this man?

Could she really trust him with her life? Eleven was unsure. She shouldn’t doubt the love of a man if he was willing to sacrifice his life for her, even if he had never expressed his love verbally. She should understand how he felt.

She was not someone who would dwell on the past, but their identities had caused her to step back.

How should she choose?

Chu Li had clearly said that if she wanted him, she would have abandoned them. Would they trust Mo Ye and Mo Jue again?

Mo Ye held Eleven’s hand tightly. She felt the warmth and strength of his palm, as well as his determination. Her heart instantly went into a state of panic, and she felt like escaping…

She shook his hand off, but he held her hand again, so tightly as if he would not let go. He seemed to notice that Eleven was shaking a little, and he raised the corners of his lips slightly. Why did he think that Eleven was someone cold and hard to deal with in the past? In his eyes, she was a lovely and transparent woman who could be seen through easily. Although her hands were stained with blood, her mind and soul were clean and unpolluted.

He held her hand tightly and hugged her in his arms forcefully. He whispered, “Eleven, let’s start over, shall we?”

Eleven was shocked. She didn’t know how to reply to him. It was easy for him to ask, but it required a lot of courage for her to make a decision. She wasn’t sure if she had the guts to gamble with Mo Ye.

His slightly calloused hand rubbed against the back of her hand. It was warm and a bit seductive. Eleven sighed and honestly replied, “I don’t know.”

He was a little disappointed. Her heart had been closed for too long.

“Do you still hate me?”

“I don’t know.”

“Then, do you love me?”

“I don’t know!”

…

She did not know how to answer all the questions Mo Ye had asked. She simply used the three magical words of truth to block them all. She was totally unprepared for those questions.

“Eleven, what do you need me to do? As long as I can do it, I will do it for you,” Mo Ye said in a deep voice. He knew what was on her mind and what she was worried about. He was ready to do anything for her if she asked.

“I don’t need you to do anything for me,” Eleven gnashed her teeth and said softly. Tell him to leave the Mafia? No, she couldn’t bring herself to say it. It would be too selfish of her to do that, as Mo Ye had put in a lot of effort in the Mafia. From his story, she could tell that he was proud and determined. How could she be so selfish and just tell him to give up everything? If he was her, she would not give up everything just for him.

She loved him deeply, but there were many things that were more important than love.

Everything wouldn’t matter to Mo Jue as long as he had Wei Wei, but it was different for Mo Ye.

He stepped back a little but still didn’t let go of her hand. He looked at her in the eye and asked flatly, “Is this really so hard for you?”

“Mo Ye, don’t force me. Things have escalated so fast. I don’t know how to take care of it now. I…” Eleven did not know how to explain what she had promised Chu Li.

Eleven tried to avoid his gaze, but Mo Ye did not allow her to. He held her cheeks with his hands and turned her face around to face him. Looking straight into her eyes, he asked, “Can you at least tell me how long will you take then? Is that not okay with you too?”

“What how long?”

“How long will it take you to forgive me completely and how long will it take you to really give us a chance? Or, have you never planned to give me a chance?”

His questions put Eleven on a spot. She was at a loss. Mo Ye’s mind was too meticulous, and he knew how to take his moves step by step. She was not his opponent at all. Now that he had explained it clearly, using force was out of the list. It was rare that she didn’t know what to do.

‘How do I tell him an exact period of time?’

She was very confused.

“Did you want me to leave the Mafia?” Mo Ye asked suddenly.

Eleven shook her head almost instantly without thinking. “No, I have never thought about it. I might have thought that if you were not the Mafia’s godfather. But you already are. I have never once thought about asking you to leave, and I won’t do that.”

Mo Ye looked at her, trying to tell from her eyes if she was speaking the truth. Indeed, she was.

“Have you thought about what the relationship between us is now?” Mo Ye asked.

Eleven was stunned.

Mo Ye said slowly, “I will define it like this. We are definitely the underworld version of Romeo and Juliet, right? You already let me hug and kiss you. I am your boyfriend now, aren’t I?”

Eleven was speechless.
