The Villain's Redemption-Chapter 91 Memories

Chapter 91 Memories

It was around nine in the evening. Mo Li's breathing was already calm and rhythmic. Li Yue, on the other hand, was staring at him; her gaze was blank, contrary to the previous happiness that she showed when he was still awake. In her hands are the files that were given by her assistant, just a few minutes after Mo Li fell asleep.Letting out a long sigh, she slowly removed her hand out of his. Soon, her eyes darted towards his legs. Guilt flashed in her eyes. Mo Li's words were true. With the technology today, it wouldn't be too hard to walk using other methods.

'Robot, are you sure you can fix him?'

[Bee is positive]

'And the consequences that you mentioned?'

[Bee needs thirty coins to save someone from injury. As long as they are not dead, Bee can save them and restore them.] When Li Yue almost died from drowning at the falls years ago, she realized that this Robot was the one who saved her. When the robot started talking again, Li Yue didn't hesitate to ask it about the healing and it immediately told her about it.

'And since I don't have thirty coins?' Right now, Li Yue only has five coins.

[I will take memories.]

Memories. Mo Li and everyone else associated with him will lose their memory of Li Yue. That will be the price that they have to pay for the robot to help him. Again, a sad smile slithered on her face. If she chose to have the robot heal him, Mo Li will forget about her.

But isn't that what she wanted?

Li Yue's lips thinned as she looked at the man who was calmly sleeping in his bed. Before sleeping, Mo Li insisted on holding her hand. He said that he had a feeling that she will leave and he won't let her do that. Of course, he said it while he was smiling. Half joke… half meant….

Slowly, Li Yue opened the folder and looked at the sketches that she did. It was the drawings of the cave and forest, then there were some of Mo Li's frowning face from her memories. She stroked the sketches before putting it next to Mo Li. She then stood and kissed his forehead.

Holding his hands, she whispered. "I'm sorry." Her gaze glued into his face before she said. 'Robot. Do it.'

[Initiating Restoration. Memories will be taken in three… two… one….]

Li Yue heard a strain of beep in her head. She immediately closed her eyes as her head started to ache.

[Restoration complete. Memories have taken.] the robotic sound echoed inside her head. Hearing this, Li Yue opened her eyes. Realizing that her gaze had turned blurry, she immediately closed her eyes for a few seconds and examined her body.

'Robot, why do I feel weak?'

[Host had exhausted Bee's energy. Bee needed three days to recover. Please note, if you encounter any trouble in these three days, Bee won't be able to help you.]

Li Yue sighed and opened her eyes. She then looked at the sleeping Mo Li. Letting go of his hand, Li Yue gave him one last look as she tried to control the heaviness in her chest before leaving the hospital room.

"Miss!" Seeing Li Yue's pale face, her assistant immediately assisted her.

"Let's go." She said and left without turning her head.

…..

The sound of soft conversations stirred him awake. She frowned as the strong smell of antiseptic reached his nose. Where was he? Mo Li looked at the white walls surrounding him, confused.

"Mo Li!"

He immediately looked at his uncle, the Mayor of the town.

"Good thing that you are already awake. How are you feeling?" It was her aunt, the mayor's wife.

"I— "

"Are you alright? You look pale."

"Wait… I will call the doctor."

Mo Li nodded, his face dark as he held his aching head. It was as if a part of his brain was taken from his head. It didn't take too long before the doctors arrived to check him. When the doctor told them that nothing was wrong, they immediately thanked him and asked about the alternatives for his legs.

"What legs?" Mo Li frowned.

"Oh… Just like what the doctor said, the bullet that you took for the painter hit your spine and you won't be able to walk again. But there's no need to worry we can— " The mayor widened his eyes when he saw Mo Li lift his legs.

"I can move it." He said before he lowered his head. "My body is good. I should be good." Seeing this, the doctor immediately started another round of tests on his body. It didn't even take an hour for the doctors to confirm that there is indeed no problem in his spine.

"Mo Li… with your identity, you don't just go around and save someone from a lunatic." The mayor's wife gently said before she let out a sigh. "Next time… please prioritize your safety."

Mo Li lowered his head, saying nothing. A few nights ago, he saved a woman that he didn't know. He was driving from the banquet when he saw a woman being held at gunpoint by another woman. He frowned. Why does he feel that something is wrong with him?

"Good thing you are fine now. Alright, the doctor said you can leave two days from now. I will call my people and see if they found the criminal."

"What is that?" Mo Li suddenly pointed at the folder on the table.

"Oh that… that should be some stuff that was gifted by the painter. Here." The mayor's wife said. "It's not bad. She is very good. She even sketched you." She smiled. "Sadly, she already left the city today."

"Oh." Mo Li nodded and opened the file. He eyed the sketch of the cave then the forest. Slowly, he felt his chest ache. Unknowingly, tears pooled in his eyes. He clutched his chest, unable to understand the pain. Why does it hurt so much? Why does it seem that his heart was chiseled out of his chest?

"Mo Li? Are you alright?" Mo Li raised his head and stared at the older woman in front of him, his lips shook as tears silently streamed down on his cheeks. He felt the world narrowed; his gaze hazy. Why does he feel as if a part of him was taken away from him? He thought before he lost his consciousness.

"Mo Li!"
