Husband, Let Your Husband Treat Your Illness - Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Ye Xi felt much more at ease after seeing Ye Mo board the plane with his own eyes. Having solved this major trouble, Ye Xi could finally go back and get a good night’s sleep.

“Hello, the plane has taken off, flight number JL787. Once you receive him, confiscate his passport and phone immediately. Just take good care of him.” After finishing the call, Ye Xi stepped onto the road back to his own manor.

Just as Ye Xi stepped into his manor preparing to rest, his left cheek was “kindly greeted” by Dongfang Jin’s fist.

“Who is it!” Ye Xi spat out a mouthful of fresh blood; it was evident how much strength Dongfang Jin had used just now.

“Where is Mo?” Dongfang Jin grabbed Ye Xi by the collar and roared, his furious aura sweeping over Ye Xi’s heart like a blast of hot wind. “Tell me quickly, where on earth is Ye Mo?” Dongfang Jin’s furious appearance terrified even Dongfang Yongxiao and Ye Huan, who were watching from the sides.

“Big brother, let go. He is Ye Mo’s elder brother after all; let him speak properly,” Dongfang Yongxiao advised. He understood his elder brother’s temperament best; if he truly became enraged, he could use a scalpel to hack a person into eight pieces.

“Yeah, Jin, let go quickly,” Ye Huan said. “Although my big brother’s actions were underhanded, please calm down. Can’t we discuss this ourselves?”

Under the persuasion of the two, Dongfang Jin finally let go, his mood calming slightly. Who knew that at this moment, Ye Xi would drop a line: “You will never see him again.” The fire that had just been extinguished was instantly reignited. Dongfang Jin broke free from the two men’s restraint, rushed in front of Ye Xi, and kicked him square in the stomach, sending Ye Xi flying a long distance.

Ye Huan hurriedly went over to check on his elder brother’s distressed state, stepping forward to help Ye Xi up. “Big brother, are you alright? Speak properly and suffer less.”

Dongfang Yongxiao, on the other hand, held back his own brother. “Brother, calm down! If you beat him into a cripple, how will we find out Ye Mo’s whereabouts?”

“I’ll beat him until he speaks!”

“Dongfang Jin! Calm the hell down! Are you the only one worried that Ye Mo has disappeared?” Dongfang Yongxiao’s words finally truly calmed Dongfang Jin down.

“Who else knows about Ye Mo’s disappearance?” Ye Xi asked.

“Aside from us few, it’s just a few people from the Dongfang family. No one else,” Ye Huan answered.

“You haven’t told the family elders well. It’s better for everyone if this matter doesn’t blow up.”

“You still know it’s better for everyone! Then hand Mo over, Big Brother,” Ye Huan said to Ye Xi.

“Ye Xi, I know you don’t like me, and you don’t like me being with Ye Mo. But don’t you think you’re overstepping?” Dongfang Jin said. “It was love at first sight for me with Ye Mo. My feelings for him aren’t for ‘playing around’; I truly want to be with him. He and I are already inseparable. Even the Ye family elders haven’t said anything, so why are you obstructing us?” Dongfang Jin poured out all his doubts; he was bewildered as to why this brother would go to such lengths.

“Dongfang Jin, I believe you can treat him well, but don’t you find two men together disgusting? Ye Mo has to make a living in the business world in the future. Is he supposed to carry a title like that? You don’t want your dignity, but Ye Mo does!”

“Ye Xi, is that Ye Mo wanting dignity? That’s you!”

“You!”

Ye Xi was momentarily speechless from Dongfang Jin’s retort. Dongfang Jin didn’t want to say another word to Ye Xi, so the atmosphere suddenly became extremely awkward.

“Big Brother! Where exactly is Mo?” Sensing the awkwardness, Ye Huan finally spoke up. “I am asking you now in my capacity as Ye Mo’s third brother.”

Ye Xi remained silent, determined not to reveal Ye Mo’s whereabouts.

“Big Brother! Is Mo still in the country?”

Ye Xi remained silent, staring at Dongfang Jin. He truly couldn’t understand why Ye Mo would fall for this man who, in his eyes, had zero charm.

“Big Brother, did Mo go abroad?”

Ye Xi still didn’t speak, staring deathly at Dongfang Jin, wishing he could swallow him alive right now so that his younger brother could return to the “right path.”

“Big Brother!”

“Ye Mo is already abroad! He should be arriving in Japan soon. Without my authorization, even if you turn all of Japan upside down, you won’t find him.”

These words were like a clap of thunder exploding over Dongfang Jin’s head. He slumped onto the sofa, his face devoid of light, feeling as though he had truly lost a most precious treasure.

Suddenly, the television in the hall turned on for some reason. Dongfang Jin saw that he had sat on the remote control. At this moment, he was in no mood to care about what the news was reporting; his mind was only on how to find Ye Mo and blaming himself for not being able to stay by Ye Mo’s side.

“At 8:30 tonight, a plane encountered an aviation disaster and crashed into the sea. Rescue operations are currently being organized. It is reported that the plane was originally scheduled to arrive in Japan, flight number JL787.”

When those last few words came out, Ye Xi’s pupils dilated. A sharp pain, like a needle prick, shot straight to his brain, a feeling so intense it felt as if his heart was being torn into four pieces. Ye Xi lunged upward and headed for the door.

Ye Huan and Dongfang Yongxiao instinctively blocked him. They had planned not to let him leave until he revealed Ye Mo’s whereabouts, but they didn’t know what kind of madness had gripped Ye Xi he was fighting desperately to get out.

“Big Brother! Unless you tell us where Ye Mo is, you’re staying right here!”

“We won’t let you leave.”

“Let me go! I have to go save Ye Mo!” The words Ye Xi spoke left the three of them stunned. It took Dongfang Jin a long time to react. He asked, “What did you just say?” Those words were like nails, driven one by one into his heart; warm blood dripped from his heart and fell onto his own face.

Dongfang Jin didn’t even know how his tears had started flowing uncontrollably. Grabbing Ye Xi’s shoulders, he said, “Say it!”

“Ye Mo was on that plane.” After speaking, Ye Xi pointed at the news on the TV.

“Move, now!”

The group drove extremely fast to the scene of the accident. On the way, Ye Huan contacted the doctors from the Ye family hospital to have them wait at the scene, while Ye Xi contacted his own search and rescue team to be on standby.

In about half an hour, they arrived at the scene like a whirlwind. Dongfang Jin grabbed someone on-site and asked, “Hello, have the victims been found yet?”

“Not yet. According to the passenger list provided by the airline, there is still one man with the surname Ye who hasn’t been found.”

Dongfang Jin’s brain went “boom,” feeling as if his world had collapsed. “Mo! Ye Mo!” Dongfang Jin shouted at the shore, then jumped onto a random search boat and began calling out Ye Mo’s name incessantly across the water.

“Big Brother, look at Dongfang Jin’s state. Don’t you think your previous actions were too much?” Ye Huan said to Ye Xi. “Big Brother, I know you cherish Ye Mo, but the feelings between these two aren’t something you can separate just by saying so.” After speaking, Ye Huan began arranging his family’s search team to start the hunt.

Ye Xi could only watch Ye Huan’s retreating back, standing on the shore watching the mistake he had made.

Dongfang Yongxiao watched his own brother on the boat, looking at the water without a moment’s pause as he rushed about with the rescue team. It pained him to see it, yet he didn’t dare tell the family for fear of worrying them. He also silently boarded a boat to follow the search for any sign of Ye Mo.

“Brother, it seems you really love him.” Dongfang Yongxiao said this to himself, feeling happy for his brother on one hand, but feeling that his brother was too pitiful in this relationship on the other.

Just as Dongfang Yongxiao was lost in thought, Dongfang Jin leaped into the icy water and began searching on his own. “Brother!”

Dongfang Jin went up and down in the water. He was terrified of losing this treasure, so he didn’t want to give up a single chance to find Ye Mo. Taking a deep breath, he dove back in, surfaced a few minutes later for air, and dove again. “Brother! Come up quickly! The water is so cold; what if you freeze?”

“Don’t worry about me! What matters now is Ye Mo!” After speaking, Dongfang Jin dove again.

Dongfang Yongxiao had no choice but to let him be. He thought that once Dongfang Jin grew tired and lost his strength, once he realized it was in vain he would surely give up.

However, Dongfang Jin had clearly lost all rationality. After a long time, Dongfang Yongxiao did not get the result he wanted. Finally, he had to pull Dongfang Jin up himself to let him calm down.

“Brother! Are you okay? Put this on quickly.”

“No, I still have to find Ye Mo!” Dongfang Jin said. He truly couldn’t just wait on the shore for Ye Mo to be found; he wanted to find him himself. “Mo, where on earth are you? I can’t lose you. If you’re gone, who will I cook for? Who will be able to mock me after I tell dirty jokes? Who will comfort me when I’m unhappy?”

“Ye Mo! You are such a bastard! You took my heart with you and just left like this. Did you think about me? Ye Mo! Where the hell are you?!” Dongfang Jin’s final roar caused everyone to stare at him.

“Dongfang Jin.” A familiar voice came from behind.

Dongfang Jin’s back froze. He turned around slowly and saw Ye Mo drying his hair, looking at him blankly.

“Mo!” Dongfang Jin used what felt like all his strength to say that single word.

When he saw the person in front of him, he felt as if the world had stood still. Facing Ye Mo, like a child who had found a lost toy, Dongfang Jin didn’t know it, but at that moment his tears began to flow like an opened sluice gate. Seeing Ye Mo, he didn’t know if it was happiness, excitement, or gratitude. Every best emotion in the world surged into his heart.

Like the wind, Dongfang Jin rushed toward Ye Mo, picked him up, and spun him around several times. “Mo! This is great, you’re okay, it’s truly great.” Ye Mo looked at Dongfang Jin, seeing the tears on his face while he grinned incessantly; his expression was quite strange.

“I’ve been fine all along, what’s wrong?” Ye Mo said to Dongfang Jin.

“I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime. Mo, the heavens have been too good to me.”

“Idiot.”

In the distance, the three men looked at Ye Mo and Dongfang Jin. Ye Huan said, “Big Brother, you see it now. These two are true love. No matter what you do, you can’t separate them.”

“I was wrong about this matter. Ye Huan, I’m going back first. I’ll leave things here to you.”

They continued to watch Ye Mo and Dongfang Jin, unwilling to leave for a long time.
