CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

Chapter 272 - Mo Roulan Finds Mo Chen

Mo Roulan didn't know how much time had passed as she stayed outside the hut.

She was actually planning what she could do. She was not a fool to barge inside the hut and then question Zhu Jidong where Mo Chen was.

Why is this hut located inside the forest? She wondered suddenly.

And then she thought that if Zhu family could make a hut in such a dangerous place where all kinds of dangerous animals were lurking then they must have a way to protect themselves.

So she needed to come up with a plan.

Because if she stayed safe, only then she would be able to save her brother.

However, for a long time, Mo Roulan couldn't come up with any plans. Her wound was bleeding continuously. She is worried about going into an unconscious state due to blood loss.

It was terribly chilly so she was shivering.

However, in this severe cold, she had to remove her thin jacket and then tie her leg with it tightly. She hoped that it would stop the bleeding to some extent.

Now she only had a top covering her upper body, in consequence, she might catch a cold.

However, her eyes are fixed on the door. 

It was after half an hour again that the door of the hut opened again.

It was again Zhu Jidong came out.

Unfortunately, Mo Roulan could only see his silhouette as it was night and not the panicked and tense expression he had on his face.

Mo Roulan couldn't find any other opportunity to enter the hut.

She stood up slowly. Her eyes were always looking towards the direction where Zhu Jidong had just gone and then towards the door of the hut.

Her leg was aching a lot and she had to put a hand on her mouth fearing that she would whimper or make some other noise because of this pain.

'Just a few steps ..and then I will be inside.'

She encouraged herself inside her heart as she walked closer towards the door.

However, her eyes went wide when she saw Zhu Jidong coming back towards the hut. His face was lowered and he was looking at the ground while walking ahead so he perhaps never noticed Mo Roulan standing just in front of the hut.

Panic flashed in Mo Roulan's eyes and without wasting a second or thinking anything, she opened the door hurriedly and then entered the hut.

Mo Roulan immediately looked around to find some hiding place for herself. She could see two doors and they perhaps had further space inside to hide for her.

However, she didn't have much time to stagger over there and hide from Zhu Jidong.

Gulping audibly, she walked towards the only table inside the room. It was just on the other side of the door.

The table had a lamp that was lit.

Mo Roulan pressed the button and turned it off. She then bent down ignoring the pain inside her leg and hid under the table.

Just at this moment, she saw a pair of legs at the door.

It was difficult.

Her heart was thudding inside her chest loudly and she was almost sure that she would be caught.

Standing at the door of the hut, Zhu Jidong frowned as he looked towards the opened door and then the lamp.

He didn't close the door? And when did he switch off the lamp?

Although the room had one more lamp that was lit, he didn't remember switching off the other lamp. And how could he leave the door open even after knowing how much of a dangerous place they were in…especially when his wife was sleeping inside.

Zhu Jidong was very disappointed in himself as he concluded because he was restless because of their current circumstances; he had done these irresponsible mistakes.

He stepped inside the hut again and this time he locked the door firmly.

Mo Roulan sighed in relief when she saw Zhu Jidong opening the door of a room and then going inside it.

She stayed at the same spot for the next few minutes.

Her forehead was covered with cold sweat because of the pain she was feeling as her wounded leg was bent completely and most of the pressure of her body was on it because of her current position.

When she didn't notice any movement from the room Zhu Jidong had gone inside, she came out of that table guardedly.

"Aaahh…"

A painful sigh escaped from her lips and she bit her lips in an attempt to control herself from crying out loud. The good thing was that Mo Roulan couldn't see the blood on the top of the jacket. Perhaps the bleeding has stopped.       

However, the only thing she could feel in her left leg was numbness.

Ignoring the pain, she looked towards the doors of the two rooms.

Zhu Jidong had gone to the room that was on her left side. The door of the room on her right side was locked from outside.

In the end, Mo Roulan decided to unlock that room only and check if Mo Chen was inside as she couldn't stay outside for too long.

In case Zhu Jidong came out she didn't want to get caught by him.

She slowly staggered towards the door of the room and then unlocked the door without making any noise.

After opening the door a little, she first stepped inside the room and then closed it again. She locked the door from inside. Mo Roulan knew that what she was doing was risky.

Because she had locked the door from inside, Zhu Jidong would be able to find out easily that there was something wrong after seeing so many abnormalities. 

However, she couldn't think of anything else she could do at this moment. She couldn't stay hiding under the table also as it was too rash and she needed to stay around even if Mo Chen was not here. Because now only Zhu family could tell her where Mo Chen was.

Her trembling hands had just turned the knob when she heard a whisper from her behind.

"Jie…jie"

And Mo Roulan's whole body froze.
