Han Chen gave him a warning look.
Zhou Mo immediately changed his tone: "Teacher Wang, Han Chen is indeed very busy. He is often on duty and has no time to accompany me. We finally have some time, and we agreed to play badminton, but you still want to snatch it from me."
These words were very moving to listen to.
Han Chen seemed very satisfied with this answer. With a faint smile, he said, "I'm too busy with work. I still want to spend more time with her."
Seeing this, Teacher Wang didn't feel comfortable forcing him.
"Okay, I'll find someone else."
"Sorry to bother you," Han Chen said apologetically.
The two of them came out of the First Campus of Dongda University together.
In the car.
Zhou Mo was still a little unwilling: "It's a good opportunity, why don't you want to try it?"
Han Chen started the car and said, "I don't want to do it, that's why."
"It's rare to see you so resolute," Zhou Mo said.
Han Chen used to say that as long as she wanted, he would agree to anything. Now it seems that this is not entirely true.
"But everyone has things they don't like to do, and I understand that."
Han Chen smiled lightly, "Thank you for your understanding."
…
on Monday.
When Zhou Mo got off work, he made an appointment with Zhao Xiaoshuang to pick out a birthday present for Shen Qingyi.
The two went to a boutique on Xiaole Street.
Zhou Mo liked a light pink gift box, and Zhao Xiaoshuang liked a light purple one. After they discussed it for a while, Zhou Mo felt that Zhao Xiaoshuang's taste was correct.
I asked the store for some raffia and then packed the gift box.
Zhou Mo bargained and got the store to give them a greeting card.
Zhao Xiaoshuang just felt embarrassed. She knew Zhou Mo was stingy, but she didn't expect him to be so stingy.
After leaving the boutique, Zhao Xiaoshuang asked, "This gift box of ours only costs a few dollars? And you let someone give you a greeting card for free?"
Zhou Mo didn't care: "A little bit saved is a little bit saved."
Zhao Xiaoshuang was a little worried. "We saved money, but we don't want to give away things that are not good enough and let others outdo us."
"No, don't worry." Zhou Mo was confident.
Zhao Xiaoshuang still felt uneasy. "Why don't we add some more money and just buy something more expensive?"
Zhou Mo asked with a smile: "How much money do you plan to spend on the purchase?"
Zhao Xiaoshuang: "It should be at least five hundred or one thousand."
Zhou Mo: "You still have so much money now?"
Zhao Xiaoshuang was speechless for a moment, "I can ask my parents for it."
Zhou Mo: "Stop pretending to be rich. At our age, asking parents for even one more penny is a sin."
Zhao Xiaoshuang's sore spot was touched and she said nothing.
Zhou Mo comforted her, "Don't worry, I won't let you lose face."
Zhao Xiaoshuang nodded doubtfully.
A cell phone rang and Zhou Mo was wondering who was calling her in the middle of the day.
The caller ID shows Liu Xiangru.
Zhou Mo picked up the phone, "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Momo, come quickly. Yu Yizhou's mother came to my workplace to make trouble. She was yelling and screaming right at the school gate." Liu Xiangru's voice was anxious and angry.
"What's going on? Please take your time." Zhou Mo listened to the phone and whispered to Zhao Xiaoshuang beside him, "My mom has something urgent. I'm going over now. Please ask for leave for me and Director Shen."
Zhao Xiaoshuang: "OK."
Zhou Mo continued on the phone and walked to the roadside to hail a taxi.
On the phone, Liu Xiangru said, "Who knows what's going on with that family? They were shouting my name at the door. Even though the security guards were trying to stop them,... well, it's having a really bad impact. I've even been reprimanded by the school leaders. If this isn't resolved today, I can't even leave the school."
"Have you called the police?" Zhou Mo asked.
Liu Xiangru: “Not yet.”
"Call the police first," Zhou Mo said.
"But...if I call the police, your father..."
"We have to call the police first," Zhou Mo insisted. "I'll call the police. Don't worry, I'll be there right away."
On the way, Zhou Mo called the police.
The No. 10 Experimental Middle School where Liu Xiangru works is one of the top three middle schools in Dongjiang. It is a bit far from the central urban area, but close to the shantytown redevelopment area.
Most of the students here are children of migrant workers. The school is very large, with nearly a thousand students in one grade.
It is already difficult to manage such a large school, and you can imagine how serious the situation would be if there was a disturbance at the school gate.
Her mother will be affected, but causing trouble at the school gate is definitely a disruption to public order and a threat to public safety, right?
But she had also experienced how crooked the Yu Yizhou family was, so she was not surprised by such things.
Zhou Mo got out of the taxi.
Yu Yizhou's mother was seen with her neck stiffened and her hands on her hips, pointing and cursing at the school. The security guard stopped her and drove her away from the school gate, but she still refused to give in.
She was clearly dressed like a lady, with her hair neatly combed, and she was wearing a saffron red velvet dress. She had a plump figure and exquisite makeup, but what she did was worse than that of a shrew.
The police arrived earlier than Zhou Mo and had probably negotiated with Yu Yizhou's mother, but to no avail. They mostly tried to persuade her, hoping that she would leave on her own initiative.
Unexpectedly, when Yu Yizhou's mother Wu Qinxin saw Zhou Mo coming, she immediately rushed over like a mad dog.
"That's you! You cheated on me, broke up with my son, and my family bought you a house for nothing!"
As if she was about to come over, Zhou Mo immediately hid behind the policeman, and Wu Qinxin swung her arm over the policeman.
The police officer had been tortured enough by Wu Qinxin, and after being hit on the arm, he lost his patience. "Ma'am, please calm down. This is the school gate. If you continue to cause trouble, we will have to ask you to sit in the station."
"Come on, who's afraid of who? We have nothing now. We could have bought a house, but now we have nothing. I'm not afraid of anything, come on!"
The police took Wu Qinxin directly into the police car.
Wu Qinxin struggled, still cursing Zhou Mo, saying she was shameless, and also mentioned Liu Xiangru's name, saying she was unworthy of being a teacher.
Zhou Mo was already full of anger, but she didn't say anything back. She glared at Wu Qinxin angrily, deliberately provoking her with her eyes.
She just wanted Wu Qinxin to make things worse, preferably to the point where she would be locked up.
The police approached Zhou Mo to inquire about the situation, and Zhou Mo confessed truthfully.
Finally, Zhou Mo and Liu Xiangru were also called to the police station to cooperate with the investigation.
At first, the police talked to both parties with the mentality of trying to mediate as much as possible.
But Wu Qinxin was so unreasonable that even the police couldn't stand it and directly contacted Yu Yizhou.
Liu Xiangru looked at Zhou Mo, seeming a little afraid.
"Mom, don't be afraid. This is the police station. They can't do anything."
"I'm afraid of your dad... because I broke his leg last time..."
"If there was something wrong, we would have been locked up long ago," Zhou Mo said, "If we can't handle this today, it will only get more endless in the future."
The matter has even been brought to Liu Xiangru's workplace. The Yu Yizhou family is a bunch of idiots, their unreasonable behavior is truly hopeless.
When Yu Yizhou arrived at the police station, he seemed very busy and was answering the phone.
"Okay, keep the bag for me. Make sure all the documents are in order, okay? Okay, okay, I get it. I have something else to do."
He put away the phone and saw Liu Xiangru and Zhou Mo in the mediation room, but did not see Wu Qinxin.
"Where's my mom?"
