Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Want to Walk into the Trap?

She hesitated to take her phone, no matter who was calling, it surely had something to do with whether the school would close or not. In her moment of hesitation, the call ended.

Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, it started ringing again, the crazy ringtone splitting her head with pain, and the people around her were looking at her, wondering why she wouldn’t answer the phone.

With no other choice, she took out her phone, and the caller ID read ’Teacher Zhang’.

As expected, it was them...

Once connected, Teacher Zhang on the other side didn’t wait for her to speak and rushed out with a question, "Ms. Mo, is what the principal said true? Can you really save the school? Ms. Mo, a few of us teachers discussed and decided to still plead with you for help. Please, don’t let the school close. You know, without the school..."

Without listening to the end, Mo Ran hung up the phone. It was now November, and the weather was getting colder. She wore a lot, but still felt cold.

It was a cold seeping out from her bones, making her hands and feet icy, her entire body stiff.

Sitting on the bus in a daze, she saw the school through the window and her heart was torn. Should she really go beg Gu Yixuan?

Knowing it was his trap, should she still walk right into it?

But if she didn’t, the school would be gone, everyone would resent her, dislike her. She couldn’t bear so much resentment, couldn’t bear the isolation and indifference from everyone...

The phone rang again, startling Mo Ran. Suddenly feeling very angry, she wanted to turn off her phone, to disappear from everyone’s reach.

Just as she was thinking about doing that, she noticed that it was Mo Yan calling and reluctantly answered.

"Hello, sis."

"Ranran, where are you now?" Mo Yan on the other side sounded somewhat anxious.

"I just left the school."

"Ranran, hurry over here, I’m waiting for you. Right now!"

Before she could inquire what happened, Mo Yan had already hung up. Could something have happened?

Mo Ran felt a rush of panic and immediately hurried to where Mo Yan lived.

"Sis, what happened?" As she entered, she saw Mo Yan’s deeply furrowed brows.

"Ranran, come, sit down and let’s talk." Mo Yan pulled her to sit down and asked out of the blue, "Ranran, tell me, are you still with Mr. Gu?"

Mo Ran was slightly startled, "Why are you asking this?"

"Just tell me, what’s your relationship with him now?" Mo Yan emphasized her tone.

Mo Ran had no choice but to answer honestly, "I’ve already moved out of his villa."
