Chapter 594: Unt.i.tled
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ye Wei was extremely weak after her miscarriage. She had no appet.i.te and couldn’t eat at all. In just a few days, she lost weight rapidly and looked much quieter than before. Sometimes, she could even lay in bed all day without feeling bored.
Eleven tried to coax her into eating more and made food that she usually liked. However, Ye Wei hardly moved. How could her body take it? She made many supplements according to the doctor’s advice and forced Ye Wei to eat them with a firm att.i.tude. She had to make sure she ate even if the food was tasteless to her. Rong Yan had reminded her to bring Ye Wei back to London as soon as possible so that she could take care of her since Ye Wei’s health would deteriorate after a miscarriage. Both Eleven and Ye Wei didn’t know about that as they had lived outside for many years, doing everything at will. But, Ye Wei’s health was not getting any better, and Eleven didn’t want to fly back to London either. She could only take care of Ye Wei on her own in Rome.
Rome and Sicily were not far away, and news could spread fast and easily. Eleven was clear of whatever the Mafia was doing. She had two of her intelligence agents pretend to be her and Ye Wei, and the two of them took their pa.s.sports to London, which fooled the Mafia’s intelligence agents into thinking that Ye Wei and Eleven had left Rome for London. Because they had stayed indoors for the past few days, the Mafia didn’t find out that they were still in Rome.
After the war, the Mafia had taken control of nearly half of the Middle East, Colombia, and Mexico. The Mafia replaced the Top Terrorist Organization as the leader of the underworld and gained great strength. This time, the Mafia’s losses were almost negligible as they did not partic.i.p.ate in the war. Hence, they had merely benefited from the gains.
The Mafia had cheered on the fight between the Top Terrorist Organization and several countries in the Middle East when they first started the war. Then, they took advantage of the war and robbed the market and resources that belonged to the Top Terrorist Organization in Colombia and Mexico. However, because the forces were too concentrated on the war to attack the Mafia at that time, the Mafia did not suffer much.
They were the biggest winner of the war. The Dragon Gate was expectedly unaffected as its nature was very different from the Top Terrorist Organization and the Mafia. It was an international Mafia, and its arms strength was far inferior to that of the Top Terrorist Organization. They could not partic.i.p.ate in such a large-scale military activity even though Third Young Master Ye wanted to help.
The Middle East was not Third Young Master Ye’s territory, and the war would have ended if he sent his men from North America. Moreover, Rong Yan took control of the situation well. The large-scale war lasted only for two days, and the confrontation and retreat took three days in total.
No matter how, the Dragon Gate could only watch the Top Terrorist Organization suffer heavy damage this time. Although he couldn’t help them during the war, Third Young Master Ye could provide a.s.sistance for the reconstruction after the war.
Funds, connections, and bases, Third Young Master Ye had them all. His help was the main force that had supported the reconstruction of the Top Terrorist Organization. Chu Li, Jason, and the others were very grateful to him.
The young kid had gone to the island for his closed-door training, and he knew nothing about what had happened outside. He would never imagine that the Top Terrorist Organization had suffered such a heavy blow.
Many of the wounded were transferred to Rome. The medical facilities in both London and Rome were excellent. Hence, Chu Li decided to transfer some of the injured over to Rome for treatment after hesitating for a while. Because there were too many casualties, they wouldn’t be able to get good medical treatment if all of them stayed in London.
Rong Yan went to Rome with them while the men were busy with post-war reconstruction. She herself had rarely partic.i.p.ated in the internal affairs of the Top Terrorist Organization except when it was an urgent emergency. Because she had almost caused Chu Li to lose his life the last time, the brothers in the Top Terrorist Organization had some reservations about her. However, after this time, Rong Yan managed to secure a place as Mrs. Chu in their hearts.
Only a woman who could be strong and soft at the same time deserved to be Chu Li’s wife and their lady boss.
Rong Yan’s main purpose of escorting the wounded to Rome was to visit Ye Wei and Eleven. She was worried about Ye Wei’s health. Since Chu Li, Black J, and Jason were so busy to the extent that they wished to have forty-eight hours a day, she volunteered to help as she was free anyway. As long as she would be safe, Chu Li complied with all her wishes.
“Yan Yan, how’s Jason? Is he seriously hurt?” Eleven asked anxiously. Rong Yan shook her head and smiled. “Don’t worry. He is not seriously injured. He only had some bruises, which I’m sure must have recovered by now.”
Eleven was relieved and brought her to Ye Wei. Rong Yan felt sad when she saw Ye Wei’s wan and sallow face. She had known Ye Wei for a few years, but she had never seen such a weak and sick Ye Wei, who seemed a little dead and lifeless.
Rong Yan sat beside Ye Wei, who had been watching cartoons on the bed, and said, “Wei Wei, come home with us.” Eleven switched off the television, but Ye Wei remained calm and quiet. She did not answer her.
In fact, she didn’t want to go back to London. She felt ashamed to go back. The damage done was too great, and she was afraid to see their faces or the condemnation in their gazes.
Rong Yan seemed to know what she was worried about and chuckled. “Don’t think too much. Chu Li and Little Iron have told me to take you back before I left. No one blames you. It was not your fault either. Don’t be too hard on yourself.”
“How could it not be my fault? If it wasn’t for my willfulness, everything could have been avoided,” Ye Wei said flatly.
Rong Yan raised her eyebrows. “It couldn’t be avoided. As long as the Mafia had the intention to replace the Top Terrorist Organization, this would happen even if Eleven or you didn’t exist. This was inevitable.”
Ye Wei smiled and said nothing.
This time, many strongholds of the Top Terrorist Organization had turned into ruins. These ruins could be completely cleaned up and a perfect military factory could be built again after the reconstruction. But, what about Ye Wei’s heart that was also full of ruins? Who could remove the ruins in her heart completely?
Rong Yan sighed. Ye Wei smiled and said, “You don’t have to worry about me. I’m okay. Let me stay for a few more days. I have some things to think about.”
Eleven and Rong Yan left Ye Wei’s room.
Both of them frowned and had a serious look. Eleven asked Rong Yan, “Is the situation bad in London?”
“Not really. It can still be controlled for the time being, but the reconstruction may take a longer time. I reckon that it might take approximately two to three years. Fortunately, Chu Li, Jason, and Little Iron have not been defeated. We would be able to get through this if everyone works together. However, this would not be the case if the Mafia is determined to kill us all.”
