Chapter 641 - The Daughter Cried

Hearing Gu Changle’s words, Shao Tianze hesitated for a while before rejecting her.

“Miaomiao is hard to coax. I’ll do it.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I’m her aunt and have watched her grow. I am capable of lulling her.” Gu Changle wanted to convince Shao Tianze.

But Shao Tianze said, “I know you can soothe her well, but now Miaomiao is unhappy because she has been parted from Yi. I am worried that her crying and screaming will make your condition worse. The doctor said that you needed to rest quietly. I shouldn’t let her disturb your recuperation.”

Shao Tianze said that with much courtesy.

This made Gu Changle find no reason to continue to persuade.

Gu Changle felt angry in her heart. However, Shao Tianze had said so. She could no longer ask Miaomiao to accompany her.

She said, “Well, I’ll invite Miaomiao again when she is in a good mood.”

Shao Tianze nodded and said some words before hanging up.

After Gu Changle heard Shao Tianze hang up, she narrowed her eyes. Anxiety rose in her heart and then she was forcibly suppressed.

She whispered to herself, “There are many chances. Wait and see.”

Indeed, there were many opportunities. As long as Gu Yi was separated from Miaomiao, she could concentrate on dealing with one of them.

Whether she dealt with Gu Yi or Miaomiao first, it would not be as difficult as before.

What was the point even if Shao Tianze cherished and liked Miaomiao?

He couldn’t stay with Miaomiao all the time. As long as Shao Tianze left Miaomiao, she would have a chance to fix Gu Changge’s daughter.

Gu Changle took a deep breath to calm herself down.

In the Shao Family, Miaomiao almost died of crying after knowing that her brother had left home early in the morning.

Shao Xue cared a lot for her little niece.

She held Miaomiao on her laps and gently wiped the tears on her face with a tissue. Then, she comforted Miaomiao, “Your brother went to Harbor City to study. You will see him in the future. Why are you crying so hard?”

“Boo-hoo, boo-hoo.”

Miaomiao would have calmed down soon if Shao Xue hadn’t consoled her. But hearing Shao Xue’s words, Miaomiao thought of her brother leaving home without telling her. She felt sadder and cried loudly.

Shao Xue felt helpless. She sighed while gently raising her hand to wipe Miaomiao’s tears.

She should have asked Gu Yi to tell Miaomiao about it before he left. When Miaomiao was crying, it was difficult for people to ease her except her brother.

Shao Xue was patient and had much time. Even if Miaomiao kept crying, she didn’t get tired of her.

She tenderly stroked Miaomiao’s hair and said, “Miaomiao, think about it. Will your brother be happy if you keep crying like this?”

Miaomiao ignored Shao Xue’s words.

Miaomiao only knew that her brother would come to soothe her when she cried.

It had always been like this.

Miaomiao was out of breath from crying. Her cry seemed to shake the house.

The nurse near them could not bear it and asked Shao Xue, “Miss Shao, shall we ask Mr. Shao to come back and have a look?”

Shao Xue didn’t want Shao Tianze to come back to see Miaomiao.

However, she could not stop the nurse at this time.

So, she nodded and said to the nurse, “Call my brother back.”

With Shao Xue’s consent, the nurse went to phone Shao Tianze.

Shao Tianze just finished his afternoon work. He was ready to go home when he heard the phone ring on the desk. He took a closer look and found that it was a call from home.

Shao Tianze answered the phone. The person on the other end immediately said to Shao Tianze, “Mr. Shao, Miss Shao wants you to come back and look after Miss Miaomiao.”

“What’s the matter with Miaomiao?”

“She has been crying since she learned that the young master had gone to Harbor City.”

Hearing the nurse’s words, Shao Tianze frowned instantly and said with displeasure, “She has been crying for a day?”

“Intermittently.” The nurse didn’t dare to say that Miaomiao hadn’t eaten or drunk anything all day. She was afraid of being scolded.

Nevertheless, even if the nurse didn’t say it, Shao Tianze could almost guess. He asked the nurse, “What did Miaomiao eat this morning?”

“Miss Miaomiao didn’t eat anything.”

“Hasn’t she eaten breakfast, lunch, or afternoon tea?”

Shao Tianze asked the nurse.

The nurse was fearful but still said, “No, she hasn’t.”

Shao Tianze knitted his brows. With a colder tone, he blamed the nurse, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

The nurse pursed her lips and said, “Miss Shao has been soothing Miss Miaomiao. We thought it would get better.”

“Idiot.”

Shao Tianze was usually gentle and he never treated the servants badly.

However, he couldn’t help getting irritated when hearing the nurse talk about Miaomiao’s situation.

His daughter cried hysterically.

These jerks didn’t tell him right away.

“I’ll go back at once.”

Shao Tianze hung up the phone.

The assistant just came in and saw Shao Tianze hang up. He said to Shao Tianze, “Mr. Shao, we have prepared the materials for tomorrow’s meeting. Would you like to look over them?”

The assistant passed the materials to Shao Tianze.

Seeing the documents that the assistant handed, Shao Tianze didn’t care. He said, “You check them for me. I’m rushing home.”

Hearing Shao Tianze’s words, the assistant thought something had happened to Gu Changle and asked Shao Tianze, “Need I call a doctor?”

Shao Tianze said, “Why?”

“Miss Gu’s disease...”

“I’m going back to look after Miaomiao. No need to call a doctor.”

The assistant was surprised by what Shao Tianze had said.

The assistant didn’t understand that Shao Tianze was going back to take care of his daughter until he left the office.

When Shao Tianze heard the nurse said that Miaomiao was crying hard, he had anticipated it in his heart.

After all, Miaomiao and Gu Yi grew up together. Even though they moved frequently, they had always lived together.

They separated suddenly now. Naturally, Miaomiao couldn’t adapt to it.

He had anticipated that Miaomiao would cry and scream because of Yi’s departure. But he didn’t expect that Miaomiao cried uncontrollably and hadn’t eaten all day.

On the way home, he speeded up. He entered the house.

The nurse called him, “Mr. Shao.”

Then, Shao Tianze heard that Miaomiao’s cry came from the living room.

Shao Tianze frowned and turned to look at the nurse with a dark face.

The nurse, responsible for taking care of Miaomiao, put on a troubled expression and quickly said, “Mr. Shao, I have comforted her, but Miss Miaomiao won’t listen to me.”

Hearing the nurse’s evasion of responsibility, Shao Tianze frowned even more, “You won’t come tomorrow.”

Hearing Shao Tianze’s words, the nurse knew that she was dismissed.

The salary of working in the Shao Family was extremely high.

The nurse intended to say something and begged for a second chance.

However, before she could say anything, Shao Tianze glanced at her coldly and asked, “Do you want me to ask you to leave?”

The nurse was not stupid. Hearing Shao Tianze’s words, she knew Shao Tianze wouldn’t keep her. She could only pack up her belongings and left the Shao Family.

After firing a nurse who took care of Miaomiao, Shao Tianze saw the housekeeper was behind him. He furrowed his brows and questioned her severely, “That’s how you manage these people for me?”

Being scolded by Shao Tianze, the housekeeper immediately admitted her mistake, “I’m sorry, Mr. Shao. I won’t hire such people in the future.”

Shao Tianze was impatient, “Quickly find a careful one to take care of Miaomiao.”

Miaomiao needed someone to take care of her. The nurse had been fired. They must look for someone to succeed.

The housekeep knew how much Shao Tianze valued his daughter from his words. She nodded and turned around to set about looking for a full-time nurse to take care of Miaomiao.

Since Shao Tianze entered the house, Miaomiao’s crying had never stopped.

Following the crying, Shao Tianze went to Miaomiao’s room.

Miaomiao wore pink pajamas, sitting on the bed.

Seeing Shao Tianze was back, Shao Xue called him, “Brother.”

Shao Tianze nodded and asked her, “Has she been crying all day?”

Shao Xue answered, “Yes.”

After saying that, she added, “She hasn’t eaten or drunk anything. I soothed her, but she didn’t listen to me. She is dreadfully sad this time.”

Seeing that Shao Tianze entered the room, Miaomiao stopped crying for a while.

Shao Tianze called her, “Miaomiao.”

Miaomiao did not respond to him and continued to cry.

Seeing his daughter crying loudly, Shao Tianze knew that he could not comfort her immediately.

He reached for his daughter and let her sit on his lap. He took the tissue that Shao Xue handed over, wiped his daughter’s tears, and asked her, “Daddy’s back. Would you tell me what makes you so sad?”

Miaomiao cried and hyperventilated.

She wanted to say something but couldn’t manage it.

Shao Tianze patted her back carefully, received the water cup that Shao Xue handed over, and gave the water to Miaomiao, “Be good. Have some water and tell me.”

Miaomiao’s crying mouth was dry. She saw Shao Tianze holding the water.

She drank water in a daze.

Shao Tianze comforted her to make her calm down.

“Don’t cry. I’m back. Tell me why you are so sad, good girl.”

Shao Xue looked at Shao Tianze consoling his daughter.

She felt baffled. Shao Tianze was extremely cruel and merciless, and he even killed his adoptive parents. However, he was so patient when dealing with the crying child.

She had thought that Shao Tianze would only treat Gu Changle patiently.

She didn’t expect that he would treat Miaomiao with such patience.

Being held by Shao Tianze, Miaomiao wanted to say something. But she had cried for a long time, so she spoke with a tearful tone.

She stretched out her hand for water.

Seeing this, Shao Tianze handed her the water immediately.
