Chapter 257 - Mo Chen Disappointed Mo Roulan
Today was Mo Roulan's last exam.
As she exited the college, a small smile appeared on her lips.
She has planned to take Mo Chen out today. She wondered how happy and excited that brat would be since he had been complaining for a few days now that he had not been allowed to go anywhere and hence he was now getting irritated.
Shaking her head with a smile to herself, Mo Roulan walked towards the street where Chu Feng usually parked He Jian's car.
Chu Feng asked her politely how did her exam go and Mo Roulan also answered him politely.
The car drove to Mo Chen's school like the past few days.
Almost half an hour later, the car stopped in front of Mo Chen's school.
Mo Roulan came out and then glanced at her phone. There was still some time left for the school to end so she just stood outside the car and breathed some fresh air.
Today there was no sun and the breeze blowing was very fresh and cool.
A few moments later, the school bell rang loudly and Mo Roulan put her phone back inside her bag. The children started to come out of the school and get on the school bus.
A few people who came themselves to pick their children sneaked a few glances at Mo Roulan.
It had been like this for the past few days. On her first day, Mo Roulan had felt quite weird but now she has gotten used to it. There was just one way to handle this and that was to ignore their stares.
And Mo Roulan did the same.
She looked straight towards the exit of the school without any expression on her face. However, five minutes passed, she saw no sign of Mo Chen. Slowly six and then seven minutes passed but Mo Chen still could not be seen anywhere.
Mo Roulan heart sank suddenly and she suddenly stood up straight instead of leaning against the car.
She breathed deeply to calm herself down and then walked to stand in front of the driver's seat.
She knocked on the car window lightly and soon the window lowered.
"Miss Mo, is everything alright?"
Even Chu Feng was a little confused to see as to why so Chen didn't come out until now so he couldn't help but ask Mo Roulan.
Mo Roulan forced a smile on her lips and nodded her head.
"It must be. Assistant Chu, I came to inform you that I will go inside the school and ask where is Mo Chen."
"Do you need me to come with you, Miss Mo?"
Mo Roulan immediately shook her head and so Chu Feng could only close the window again saying that he would be waiting for there patiently.
After this, Mo Roulan walked towards the school gates.
However, the security guard stopped her outside the gates only.
"Mam, do you need something?"
The security guard who was guarding the school gates asked Mo Roulan.
"Yes, actually my brother has still not come out."
The security guard frowned on hearing this. Knowing that Mo Roulan has some reason, his voice became a little soft and he asked respectfully.
"Miss, may I know in which class your brother is?"
"XXXA"
The frown on the security guard's forehead cleared suddenly and he said
"Miss, then why are you here to pick your brother? Don't you know that the whole class XXXA has gone on a trip?"
Mo Roulan's eyebrows were knitted in confusion and she asked quite loudly
"What?"
The security guard's face went serious when he realized that Mo Roulan doesn't seem to know about it. He had dealt with cases like these before also.
So he knew what he should do at this moment.
It was not necessary that Mo Roulan would believe his words so he said
"Miss, if you don't believe me then I can call the teacher in charge of XXXA here and she will confirm with you the same."
"Yes, Please."
Mo Roulan said firmly.
At this moment, she was really confused and couldn't understand what was going on at all.
Teacher Dong, the teacher in charge of XXXA came almost five minutes later at the school gates.
When the security guard told her about the whole situation, she looked at Mo Roulan and instantly recognized her as Mo Chen's sister.
"Miss Mo, Class XXXA was to go on a trip to forests at the boundary of City H today. This was something that every child in the class was told to tell their family. I had even written a note and asked the students to get it signed by their parents to get their permission for this trip. And from what I remember, Mo Chen had his mother's signature on it."
Mo Roulan was shocked when she heard all this.
She licked her lips lightly and said to Teacher Dong
"Teacher Dong, can you give me a minute, please?"
Teacher Dong generously nodded her head and Mo Roulan immediately stepped a few steps away to call at her home.
A few minutes later, fortunately, her mother picked the phone.
"Mom"
"Mo Roulan, what happened? Why do you sound so panicked?"
"Mom, I came to the school to pick Mo Chen but the teacher is saying that he has gone to see forests with his whole class."
"Trip?"
Mo Roulan's heart sank when she sensed the genuine confusion in her mother's voice.
"Mom, you didn't know anything about this?"
"No, I didn't, Roulan."
"But the teacher is saying that Mo Chen had a note signed by you and the note was regarding the parents' permission for this trip."
There was silence on the other end for a few seconds before Mo Roulan heard her mother's voice.
"I …don't know…maybe I ….."
Mo Roulan frowned and said interrupting her mother
"Mom, tell me clearly what happened? What are you thinking?"
A sigh came from the other side before Lin Qianru continued
"Actually a few days back, Mo Chen had come to me with his dairy. However, I couldn't find my glasses at that time."
Lin Qianru's eyesight was weak and she had gotten a new pair of glasses just a few weeks ago. Mo Roulan knew this.
What her mother said next made her very disappointed in her brother.
"Mo Chen said that he was in a hurry so I just signed where he asked me to.. I don't know …if it was the note you are talking about."
