Chapter 474: Touched

It was already past midnight when Mo Jue and Ye Wei came out. The autumn air in Bogota was cold, but it did not deter the city from bustling. The area was lined with nightclubs and casinos. Everyone there was youthful; some were decadent, some were elegant, and some looked penniless. The street was filled with all sorts of night scenes.

The lights were shining brightly and the streets were bustling.

Ye Wei ordered two cups of hot cocoa and gave one to Mo Jue. The smell of hot cocoa gave off a warm fragrance in the autumn air and it smelled good. Mo Jue drank a sip to warm himself.

“Gorgeous Mo Jue, are you good at gambling?” Ye Wei bantered. She did not believe that he would really agree to gambling with Arthur to determine the winner as this was not his usual working style. Mo Jue was someone that would bring one to Yama if he was unhappy. It was unbelievable for someone who wanted things to be done quickly to give Arthur three days.

“It’s normal.” Mo Jue was humble.

Ye Wei smiled. “If your skills are normal, how are you going to compete with him? You will lose after one round as Arthur has been in the gambling field for so many years and he has many subordinates that are good at it. Are you trying to make yourself be at a disadvantage?”

“It might not be the case.” Mo Jue’s thinned his lips.

Damn it, he really showcased the beauty of being habitually silent. Would he die if he spoke more?

Mo Jue seemed to have guessed her thoughts and said, “It is not impossible to solve it with force, but it is definitely not the best way. Since the rule is set, we just have to follow the rule. If Arthur loses, he will definitely be unhappy and create conflict and nobody will dare to say anything if something happens to him then. If he suddenly dies now for no reason, it might create the effect of punishing an individual as an example to others, but people will lose their loyalty to us as the casino world is made up of many smaller casinos and they need to earn a living too. It is their usual method to bully the weaker ones and there is nothing wrong with that. It is best if we let them listen to us willingly rather than using force. No matter what, Arthur will not be able to live and it is just a matter of what strategy we use to kill him.”

The midnight wind was blowing and his voice added to the coldness.

“Ha, I didn’t expect that you will have the patience to do this kind of thing.” Ye Wei smiled. She did not care who died, but this incident showed her another side of this man. She always thought that Big Boss Mo was the most scheming one and Mo Jue was only the obedient and filial younger brother that would do whatever Big Boss Mo told him to do. But the truth was different.

Cold, calm, smart, and brave—these were traits that were essential for the godfather of the Mafia. How could she forget that he was one of the Mafia’s godfather? He would not be of the same status as Big Boss Mo if he was just an obedient younger brother.

Ye Wei and Mo Jue suddenly looked at each other and Ye Wei shrugged her shoulders. She drank the hot cocoa and threw the cup into the rubbish bin beside her. She held onto Mo Jue’s arm in an affectionate manner and walked to the quiet street which was nearby.

Both of them started to walk faster and suddenly there were footsteps behind them and a huge force came toward them. Ye Wei was cooperative but was banged against the wall. She heard someone behind her saying with a deep voice, “Raise your hands. This is a robbery.”

Ye Wei raised her hands in a cooperative manner and slowly turned around. Four fierce-looking hefty fellows were standing in one line in front of her. There was another fellow pressing against Mo Jue and looking for valuables on him.

“Brother, you seem to have robbed the wrong person? I have no money. Gorgeous Mo Jue, do you have money?” Ye Wei bantered as the person searched for valuables in her pockets but did not find any. The other fellow found a wallet in Mo Jue’s pocket.

He did not bring a lot of cash with him and only had two cards. These gambler-liked robbers were only interested in cash and quickly took away the cash inside the wallet. The hefty fellow was angry after counting the amount. “Damn! Big boss, XX&Ôø•#!!”

Ye Wei could not understand them as they spoke in a dialect that sounded vulgar, but she could roughly understand that they were complaining that the cash was too little. She smiled lightly. These people were too stupid for not taking the card that could be used worldwide with no spending limit and instead took the cash. They really had…

Bad taste.

Was it popular to rob others on the streets? They were too lucky to be robbed.

Ye Wei complained that it was too boring in her mind. She thought that these people were sent by Arthur to spy on them, but it turned out that they were just some random people.

“Take out everything valuable you have.” A hefty fellow pointed the gun at Ye Wei’s chin and shouted fiercely, as if he would blow off her chin if she did not take any money out.

Ye Wei had the attitude of playing with them just now and was cooperative with their game of robbing people, but at this moment, her face darkened and her eyes looked like she was about to kill someone. “I say, do not point the gun at me as I’m sensitive to this thing.”

She did not know why but she hated and detested the feeling of someone pointing the gun at her. She instantly lost her mood to play with them and looked cruel.

“Sensitive?” The hefty fellow laughed in a perverted manner and his fat hand brushed past Ye Wei’s face. He smiled at the people behind him in an ambiguous manner and suddenly took off Ye Wei’s sunglasses.

Someone blew a whistle. “Pretty.”

“Miss, you’re sensitive, right? It seems like your body is sensitive too. Accompany us and have some fun.” The hefty fellow wanted to grab Ye Wei’s butt.

Ye Wei blocked his hand and pressed the web between the thumb and forefinger of his hand. He felt that his arm had become numb and could not use any force. Ye Wei smiled seductively and acted as if she was shocked. “Hey, big brothers, aren’t you guys going to rob us?”

“We shall rob your beauty first,” someone said and everyone crowded around Ye Wei. One of them tried to tear her clothes.

Mo Jue eyes darkened. He knew that Ye Wei was just playing along with them and there was no way they could touch her, but he was still angered and wanted to chop off their hands and dig out their eyes.

Bell-liked laughter could be heard and Mo Jue felt that his vision became blurred. He gripped and twisted the arm of the hefty fellow that was clasping him and broke the person’s arm. The fellow wailed loudly and Mo Jue hit him until he fainted as Mo Jue felt that he was too noisy.

When he turned back, Ye Wei had already settled those hefty fellows. They were either moaning or looking at Ye Wei in horror. She snatched the gun and grabbed the collar of one of the fellow and pressed him against the wall.

“You want to rob me?” The gun was pointed at his temple.

The hefty fellow was so scared that he did not even dare to breathe. He said in a flurry, “It’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! We do not rob!”

Ye Wei smiled in a seductive manner. “Don’t be like this. I will teach you what robbery is.”

She raised her knees and aimed at the man’s weakest area, causing him to wail as he hugged his lower body. Ye Wei pointed the gun beside his ear and pulled the trigger. The sound of the bullet was loud as it hit through the wall and caused the fellow to be scared witless.

“Ah…”

“You want to rob with that gut of yours? You’d better go practice.” Ye Wei sneered and raised the corners of her lips as she threw the gun back to him.

“Have you played enough?” Mo Jue shook his head, but his cold gaze could not hide his conniver. “Let’s go!”

Ye Wei was lazy to pick up the sunglasses and walked with Mo Jue. “A bunch of unlucky robbers.”

A few of them were injured. One of them broke his arm and one was almost scared to death. It would be an understatement to say that they were just unlucky. Suddenly, someone shouted, “I want to kill you! Ahhh!!!”

Mo Jue put his arm around Ye Wei subconsciously and used his body to protect her as if it was an instinctive move. Ye Wei would not have thought much about it usually, but she was slightly startled now…

Did he really… like her so much?

The hefty fellow pulled the trigger but it was an empty shot and Mo Jue heaved a sigh of relief. If the fellow suddenly shot them, they might not be able to avoid it.

Ye Wei smiled with high spirits and her face looked lofty under the lights. The domineering vibe from her actions was something that normal women would not have. She raised her hand and opened it and a few bullets dropped.

“Hey, brother, your bullets are here.”

The bullets dropped on the floor and made a loud and crisp sound. It sounded extremely clear in the night, as if the sound was knocking on someone’s heart. The hefty fellow screamed and hid in one corner out of fear.

No one noticed how Ye Wei had taken the bullets out from the gun within such a short time. Mo Jue knew that she was safe but did not realize her action.

She indeed had foresight.

“Hey, don’t hide. Remember to improve on your skills before you rob.” Ye Wei’s elegant voice could be heard, but she had already disappeared from the streets together with Mo Jue.

Ye Wei was unusually quiet while they were walking and Mo Jue was not used to it. He did not like to talk and Ye Wei was always the one talking whenever they were together. He liked quietness, but he liked Ye Wei talking nonstop beside him, no matter what she said.

Jokes or ordinary things, he liked it as long as it was her voice and he did not think that she was annoying.

It was rare for her to be so quiet.

He could no longer endure and asked. “What’s the matter?”

“Nothing. I’m just thinking about an instinctive problem,” Ye Wei replied ambiguously and held Mo Jue’s hand tighter subconsciously. The night was cold and Mo Jue could feel that she had increased her strength and thought that she was cold. He put both their hands into the pocket of his coat and felt warmer.

Ye Wei looked down and smiled but did not say anything.

Tonight was the first time that she felt that he… was sincere.

He subconsciously protected her and made himself an obvious target for the hefty fellow. He really did not think too much and it was as if it was an instinct to do so. How much would a man love a woman to be able to protect them at the cost of their own life?

No matter how much he pampered and protected her, it was not as touching as his actions just now.

A man seemed to move a woman at unexpected moments.

She could trust him, right?
