Mo Ming… Mo Ming… was it that Mo Ming?

She released her hand and asked. “Excuse me, are you the Mr. Mo that saved me?”

Mo Ming kept his hand back, the smile on his face lightened and relaxed a bit. “If you’re talking about that Mo Ming, then it should be me. However, you can’t say that I saved you. It was Mr. Chu. The fee needed for me to step in is not cheap. These fees were, of course, given to me by Mr. Chu.”

They were friends, but even biological brothers needed to be clear on these accounts. They would talk based on their friendship, but the accounts that needed to be calculated… they would do it.

“Why are you here?” Chu Lui walked over. He was surprised that Mo Ming would come.

Mo Ming found a place to sleep and explained rarely. “I passed by her coincidentally, and I remembered that you would still be here so I came in. Oh, yes, when are you planning to go back?”

“We’ll see in a few more days. I’m still quite worried.” Chu Lui turned around to look at Xia Ruoxin. He did not know what she was currently thinking; she seemed like she did not understand. He wanted to push back the matters of going back home as once they did, many things would change. It was rare that they could have a breather so it would be better if they stayed for a while more.

“Oh yes, isn’t there one more person? Why don’t I see her?” Mo Ming folded his legs. He remembered that Chu Lui told him to save two people. Of course, the money he collected accounted for two people. Did the other person die? Of course, even if she did, he would not refund the money.

“She had already gone back. If you want to see her, I can help you arrange it in a few days.” Chu Lui knew that he was asking for Shen Wei. However, not everyone could see Shen Wei. As for Jiang Nan, it was not as simple as what the outside world thought. Besides, up till now, he still did not know what type of person Shen Wei was.

“Forget it.” Mo Ming said it in passing. As for the others, he did not think too much about it as he came here to visit a patient, not talk business or anything else.

After seeing the patient, he should leave.

“Mr. Mo, could I ask you a question?”

Xia Ruoxin suddenly opened her mouth. She raised her head, looked at Mo Ming’s back, and felt weirder about things.

“Yes, sure. Please ask.” Mo Ming turned around. Even though he was smiling, Xia Ruoxin could feel that he should be the same person as Chu Lui. However, the only difference was that Chu Lui did not like to smile, and this person would at least squeeze a smile out from time to time.

However, similarly, they were not people that were easy to get close to.

“That…” Xia Ruoxin pointed at Mo Ming’s wrist. “May I ask if that’s a red bean on your wrist?”

Mo Ming raised his finger and habitually went to touch the red bean. From this, one could tell that the sides of the red bean were already flattened by his touches.

“Yes.” He lowered his head, and his gaze softened as if the ice had melted, and it was the water after melting.

“My wife gave me this. She has one on her own.”

Oh… Xia Ruoxin felt as though she was overthinking. However, she did have the feeling that the red bean looked very familiar, but she did not know where she saw it before.

“Is there anything else?” Mo Ming asked politely. Of course, Xia Ruoxin had no intention of chatting with the person as it was the first time they had met, and they did not have a very close relationship.

“Thank you,” she answered politely.

Mo Ming nodded. After he closed the door and left, Chu Lui had followed him out. The two men should have things to talk about.

Where did she see it before? Xia Ruoxin bit her fingernail. Her memory was not weak. If she did not see it before, she would not remember wrongly.

However, the problem was that she really could not think of it.

Her arm started to hurt again. However, it was not the extinguishing pain of the start. If this bit of pain could exchange for a life of peace, it seemed pretty worth it.

She lay down, closed her eyes, and drifted off to sleep.

…

“You’re awake?” Shen Wei patted her lightly.

Xia Ruoxin sat up. “Be careful of my arm.” She removed Shen Wei’s arm on her arm. “My arm had just gone through surgery. If it breaks again, it’ll really be gone.”

“What nonsense are you saying?” Shen Wei rolled her eyes. “What surgery? Let’s go find gold.”

“But…” Xia Ruoxin felt that something was amiss. Clearly… she touched her left arm and raised it. She could move it however she wanted, and it seemed fine. However, she clearly remembered…

“Let’s go.” Shen Wei rolled her eyes again. “If we continue being this lazy, we’ll be beaten up.”

“Perhaps I was dreaming.”

Xia Ruoxin laughed bitterly and sat up. Her arms and legs had frostbites everywhere. Actually, she seemed to have gotten used to it; as it continued to hurt, it might not be pain anymore in the future.

Shen Wei pulled her pants up, and Xia Ruoxin discovered that there was a red string tied at her ankle. On the red string, there was a bean… it was red.

“Can this be eaten?”

She felt that she was really going crazy. She wanted to eat everything she saw.

“You want to eat it?” Shen Wei turned around and asked her.

Xia Ruoxin really wanted to try how the red bean tasted like so she nodded mischievously. Yes, she wanted to eat it, pretty much.

Shen Wei thought about it before placing her hand at her ankle and pulled it hard, causing the string to break and tossing the bean over. “If you don’t mind the dirt, eat it.”

Xia Ruoxin took the bean over and placed it in her palm. Actually, she did not find it dirty as she had even touched ** in the waste bucket, even smearing it all over herself and Shen Wei. This was just something worn at her ankle; at least it had not been stepped on.

She placed the small red bean in her hands and touched it. The red bean was missing a piece as if a complete one was cut right in the middle into two. She did not think much and threw the bean into her mouth, and she bit it.

“Shen Wei…”

“Mmm?”

“It’s disgusting.”

She spat the bean out and rubbed it on her body. It had no taste; not much different from biting on a piece of wood.

“I know it’s disgusting so I didn’t eat it.” Shen Wei turned and smiled at her. Just that, there was something unspeakable in her eyes.

It seemed like a sort of determination and heartbreak.

Piak! Did someone’s heart break?

It was this sound.

It was like the sound of her biting that red bean. Did her single bite affect Shen Wei’s heart?

“Shen Wei…”
