Chapter 278 – Mo Roulan Wakes Up
The early morning sun was shining softly in the sky.
The helicopter was now standing in the middle of a huge terrace of a big house that was situated in a completely isolated area.
When Mo Roulan got her consciousness back, the sun has come to the top of the sky. The bright rays from the helicopter window fell on the back seat and on Mo Roulan's face too.
Her long eyelashes moved slowly and a frown marred her forehead. A few moments later, she blinked and opened her eyes slowly.
It took her a few moments to adjust to the brightness of the rays that were falling on her face.
All of a sudden, the memories from last night flashed inside Mo Roulan's mind and her eyes went wide with fear and panic.
All of the confusion was now gone and she turned her head to look towards the front seat.
It was vacant. She could not see anything.
After not hearing any movement inside the helicopter for the next few moments, she finally decided to come out of her hiding place.
However, she has just moved a little when a whimper made its way out of her lips.
She could feel pain all over her body.
Yesterday evening and night, she had walked so much, and combined with that the wound on her leg was still there …fresh and deep.
Gathering her courage and keeping her brother's face inside her mind, Mo Roulan tried again and this time she endured all the pain.
Almost five minutes later, she was finally out of the helicopter.
Her every step out of that helicopter was very cautious as she didn't want to be caught.
However, it was not long before Mo Roulan noticed that it was morning now.
So she had been sleeping for the whole night.
Where was Mo Chen now?
Panic filled Mo Roulan's heart and she couldn't help but feel scared while thinking whether Mo Chen was alright or not.
Unconsciously, Mo Roulan frantically looked around. However, she was unable to find out where exactly she was.
Swallowing the brewing emotions inside her heart, she staggered towards the door of the terrace.
It was locked.
A frustrated sigh escaped from her lips and she again looked around the terrace to find anything that could help her. Fortunately, the terrace had some iron rods. Mo Roulan picked one and then staggered towards the door again. .
A few moments later, the door opened and she left the terrace.
To defend herself, Mo Roulan decided to keep the iron rod with herself.
Her footsteps didn't make any noise as she walked forward and climbed down the stairs in the front slowly.
The wish to see Mo Chen safe and sound always stayed there.
Almost six or seven stairs were left when Mo Roulan stopped suddenly. She had to turn to her right to get down from those six or seven stairs, however, her whole body froze when she saw Zhu Jidong standing just a few steps away from her.
In haste to hide herself, she stepped backward and her leg hit the stair.
With a thump, Mo Roulan sat down on the previous stair. A scream almost made its way from her mouth but she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands.
Still, since the stairs were made from wood, a sound still came when Mo Roulan's leg hit with it.
The scariest thing was that Zhu Jidong heard the sound and immediately looked in the direction of the stairs.
Mo Roulan shrunk her body as she knew that the sound was large enough for Zhu Jidong to hear it. However, she couldn't really turn around and go back to the terrace now as she was afraid that her movements will make more noise.
Clutching the iron rod in her hands, Mo Roulan swallowed in fear as she decided that if Zhu Jidong found her out then she will hit him on his head until he gets unconscious.
It was dangerous for her as he seemed to be stronger than her. However, she won't back down and wait for getting caught silently.
Fortunately, it was a little dark at the spot where she was hiding, so Mo Roulan could move a little and sneak a few glances at Zhu Jidong.
However, when she did that, she leaned back instantly.
Zhu Jidong was really walking towards her.
Sweat formed on her palms and she breathed deeply to gather some courage. It was a scary feeling.
She could see Zhu Jidong's shadow on the stair that was ahead of her.
Tears started to form in her black eyes that were now a little red due to the lack of good sleep. She raised the iron rod in her hands to hit Zhu Jidong on his head heavily.
"Jidong"
However, the next moment Zhu Jidong suddenly stopped amidst his steps.
Mo Roulan's hands also stopped and the iron rod in her hands just stayed above her head. She was holding it firmly…ready to hit Zhu Jidong if he takes another step forward.
"What are you doing there?"
Xun Weilan said softly as she walked towards her husband.
Zhu Jidong had a frown on his forehead as he signed his wife to stay silent. With the same frown on her forehead, Xun Weilan walked to him and then whispered
"What happened?"
"I heard some noise from here."
The frown from Xun Weilan's head vanished away and she chuckled in a low voice while telling her husband.
"Ah…that must be Doctor Zhang's cat. Before I was also scared to hear some voice from the stairs and then I found out that it was a cat. Doctor Zhang said that he likes the cat very much and especially warned me not to do anything to it."
"He warned you?"
Zhu Jidong's attention was diverted and he asked his wife seriously.
"Well he did."
Xun Weilan told him with a smile on her lips and then continued
"Now, don't go all angry on him because of this. Remember that we need him for our Ruru."
Zhu Jidong sighed and nodded his head.
Xun Weilan was relieved, however, the next moment she remembered something and worry filled her eyes again.
"You need to come with me. Ruru is asking too many questions. He wants to know from where did he get a heart suddenly…I don't think he will get ready for this transplant until he got the answers to his questions. And Doctor Zhang also needs you there to control Mo Chen. He is struggling too much."
Zhu Jiodng sighed again after hearing his wife's words.
"Let's go then."
With his hand around her waist, he turned around with Xun Weilan and left from there.
While Mo Roulan sighed in relief.
Her body was trembling as she sat down on the stair slowly. A tear slid down from her eyes as she whispered softly
"Chenchen…"
Xun Weialn's words meant that Mo Chen was still safe.
