Forty minutes after her phone call with aunt Jin, Mo Ning arrived at her apartment.
At that time, Mo Xiaye had already returned and even called the police but they were taking long to appear.
" Ning Ning you shouldn't have come. I already called the police and they are on their way. "
Mo Xiaye spotted Mo Ning as soon as she came up the stairs.
" Why shouldn't I have come mother? You didn't even bother to tell me you were facing troubles. " Mo Ning said with a pout.
" Anyway we'll discuss that later what's going on? "
" The landlord came today demanding that we move out immediately. "
Her mother's words made Mo Ning's brows furrow in thought. Why would the landlord suddenly ask them to move out?
She suddenly thought of Chang Mingkai but the news in the afternoon said his company was facing problems so he probably didn't have time to cause trouble for her.
Could it be Meng Zhaofei? But that can't be right? She was only Gu Fangtao's mistress and he wouldn't go to that length for her would he?
Of course he would. She almost forgot that Gu Fangtao was Gu Shang's younger brother, which meant he saw her as an enemy.
"Sigh! It's tiring to be everyone's center of focus. When they strike you wouldn't know who to suspect. " She mumbled to herself.
" Did you say something Xiao Ning? " Mo Xiaye asked her daughter who seemed to be lost in thought.
" No mom I didn't say anything. But is this the first time he mentioned something about moving? " Mo Ning asked. This whole situation seemed a little Strange.
Why would the landlord suddenly want to evict then from the house they had lived for more than nineteen years overnight.
Maybe someone offered him more money for the apartment compared to what she and her mother was paying, or maybe someone directly payed him a large sum to cause trouble for them.
The second option seemed more like it with the way the entire situation was unfolding.
"Yes he did. "
" When was that? "
" It was last week when I wanted to transfer the rent for this month to him and I called to confirm the account was still the same. He suddenly said we should start looking for another place since we are no longer wanted here. "
A commotion at the entrance brought an end to their conversation.
" The police is here. "
" Please who is Mo Xiaye? " one of the police officers asked.
" I am Mo Xiaye. " She said walking to the officers.
" You called to report a case of bullying to us. Where is the bully and the person being bullied?" The same officer who had spoken before asked trying to mask his irritation.
Left for him, he would just remain in the station without showing up here. Can't they just resolve something as minor as that by themselves why involve the police.
That was the reason they had delayed coming. They could have been here twenty minutes ago.
" I didn't exactly say that it was a case of bullying. My landlord is trying to force my daughter and I out of our home barely a week after he had told us to start looking for another apartment. " So that was the reason for the call the officer thought. He shouldn't have jumped to conclusion.
He couldn't deny that this was indeed a minor case but it could very well graduate into a major one depending on the way it is handled as well as the involved parties.
"Where is your daughter? Is she here? "
" Yes she's here officer. "
" What about the landlord? "
" I'm here officer. " The landlord answered with a smug expression.
He was very confident that they couldn't and wouldn't detain him because he was acting on orders.
Actually, Mo Ning was a little bit correct in her assumption that the Gu family was involved.
