Chapter 741: Untitled
After some discussion, everybody left. Su Ruyu, Mo Shitian, and Su Ruhua left. Chu Li and all looked quietly at the Mo brothers. The three of them acted as though they were strangers. Despite them being sisters, they had no eye contact with each other. This gave them a strong sense of estrangement from each other.
When would this ease?
Ye Wei peeled and ate nuts, while Eleven sat aside and quietly pondered about how the Mo brothers felt conflicted about it and how none of them would tell Su Ruyu a thing. This, after all, was something amongst the older generation that they, the younger generation, would not know much about. While both parties, from the parties’ perspective, had their points of pity and heartache, they somewhat knew that it was Su Ruhua who could not face up to Su Ruyu despite not knowing the details.
Who would dare raise it to Su Ruyu?
Even if one did not talk about Su Ruyu’s cold attitude, one could always talk about Mo Shitian’s cold attitude. He watched over Su Ruyu 24/7, and the Mo brothers did not even have a chance to talk to Su Ruyu alone. If any of them mentioned Su Ruhua, chances were Daddy Mo would boot them.
Nobody had seen such an overbearing, unreasonable, and cold man who treated Su Ruyu as though she were a treasure. Her frowning was enough to make him unhappy, let alone anything else.
Su Ruhua sat on the railings in her courtyard alone, shaking her legs and calmly looking at the clouds in the sky. The butler could only accompany her and sigh.
The sky above Riyadh was often clear and beautiful.
“Dear butler, could you leave for a moment? I would like to have a word with Beauty Mom,” Mo Jue said. The old butler sighed and turned to leave the courtyard. This was the first time Mo Jue stepped into the courtyard since Su Ruyu returned.
Su Ruhua, despite smiling beautifully, looked away. Even though the bonsai and plants surrounding her were extremely beautiful, they were not as charming and gorgeous as her. It was as though nothing had happened to her. “Little Jue, is there something?”
Mo Jue slowly walked closer. His clear purple eyes were extremely beautiful. Mo Jue smiled and sat next to her. “Beauty Mom, thank you.”
“Are you talking about impersonating Ye Wei?”
Mo Jue nodded, and Su Ruhua gently tapped his face. “You little fool. What’s there to thank me for? I can never repay what I owe you.”
“You might have owed Daddy and Mommy something, but not us.” Mo Jue plainly told her as though they were still mother and son and how he still respected and loved her. Mo Jue reached out for her hand and said, “To my Beauty Mom, thank you so much.”
“Call me auntie.” Su Ruhua smiled with a slight disappointment on her face. “The more you call me mother, the more I’d rather your brother and you hate me.”
“I’m too used to that,” Mo Jue said. “However people may see you, you are still my Beauty Mom, and that’ll never change.”
Su Ruhua looked down. ‘Little Jue, I’m ashamed.’ Su Ruhua’s eyes hurt and her chest felt stuffy. She felt gloomy and sad.
“You never knew what I had done,” Su Ruhua slowly said. “I can’t face your family. If it weren’t because of me, Mo Shitian would have never treated you as such and you would have had a very happy childhood. It’s all my fault.”
“While we might have had a very happy childhood, my brother and I wouldn’t be who we are today and we would have never encountered Wei Wei. If I could turn back time and grow up peacefully under Daddy and Mommy, I would have never dabbled in the underworld since such a young age and I wouldn’t have encountered Wei Wei. I would rather suffer much more when I was younger just to encounter her.” Mo Jue’s purple eyes revealed sincerity and love whenever he thought about Ye Wei. It was as though the softest part of his heart was being gently kneaded. He really wanted to see her.
Since gains came with losses, he never blamed Su Ruhua.
Despite whatever happened when he was younger and how the years had been, one Ye Wei was more than enough to make up for it all. There was nothing else he could ask for, and he did not even want to blame Su Ruhua as she had endured so much all these years. He could very well understand the pain in Su Ruhua’s heart all these years.
“My dear child, you’re as love-struck as Mo Shitian.” The children in the Mo family were very faithful once love-struck. It was a very good trait, and the women whom they loved were very fortunate. That said, their strong character would mean that these women would be hurt as much as them.
Although Eleven seemed cold, she was gentle and tender on the inside. It was Mo Ye’s good fortune that he did not encounter anybody like Ye Wei. As for Mo Jue… She smiled. With everything by and large stable, the outcome was for certain and she should not worry about him.
“Do you love Wei Wei so much?” Su Ruhua smiled and asked.
Mo Jue nodded generously. It was as though the entire world knew he loved Wei Wei, and he would become as berserk as his father if Ye Wei was not by his side.
“Love at first sight?” Su Ruhua asked curiously again. She did not seem the most surprised about Mo Ye liking Eleven as both of them had in them qualities that attracted and complemented each other.
As for Mo Jue and Ye Wei, she felt it weird that Mo Jue would like Wei Wei because of their characters. He was somebody who needed love, whereas Ye Wei…
“Beauty Mom, I know what’s on your mind. Wei Wei is not what you make her out to be.” He was perhaps the only one who could see the good in Wei Wei.
Mo Jue had a question he did not quite know whether to ask. He, after some hesitation, eventually asked. “Beauty Mom, do you still love Daddy?”
Su Ruhua gently shook her head and sighed. “I’ve not loved him for a long time, and it’s actually since a very long time ago. When I was much younger, I loved him and really wanted to have him for myself. If there was someone whom I really liked, I wanted to be able to hold the person in my hands just to feel that the person once belonged to me. This led to my mistakes, my eventual pregnancy, delivery, and their breakup… All that love I had for him was eventually exhausted from all these trials. Putting aside me searching for him all these years, my love for him has long passed.”
As Mo Jue listened on, he slowly sighed. It was good that her love for him had passed. She would not be in such pain any longer. He thought of spending the remainder of his life with Su Ruhua that bit more happily and less bitterly as it was.
“Where would Beauty Mom go once all these have ended?”
“I want to seek Ruyu’s forgiveness,” Su Ruhua said. “If she does not forgive me, I will not be at peace wherever I go. All these years, I’d been looking for them all around the world and never had a chance to appreciate the scenery along the way. If Ruyu could forgive me, I would like to travel the world again.”
“Mommy will forgive you,” Mo Jue said.
Su Ruhua smiled and held his hands. “Don’t worry about our affairs, and don’t tell your mother anything. She should hate me and bear a grudge against me. You understand?”
Mo Jue nodded and reached out to hug Su Ruhua. “I will still respect and love you, come what may.”
Su Ruhua felt her heart ache. “You’re such a good child.”
