After having decided to bring Gu Yi and Miaomiao back from Hoccaido, Shao Tianze fixed it all up within a couple of days.

Then Gu Yi and Miaomiao were successfully brought back from Hoccaido.

The two kids were both enchanted to be back in Yuncheng.

However, they felt strange as all the maids were changed and there was another lady named Ding Ali here.

The lady looked a bit like their mother.

It was just that she was nothing like their mother except her appearance.

As soon as Ding Ali saw that Gu Yi and Miaomiao was led into the house by Shao Tianze, she wore a warm and kind smile, greeting them, “Welcome home!”

Gu Yi was a bit dumbfounded on seeing Ding Ali.

But he quickly calmed down and turned to Shao Tianze, wondering, “Dad, who is this lady?”

“A nurse to take care of you two.”

Hearing that, Ding Ali felt disappointed. Then her face fell.

However, Gu Changle took a kind of dark pleasure on hearing that.

Ding Ali wanted to gain a foothold in the Shao Family? Keep dreaming!

Shao Tianze had never thought of marrying her.

After Gu Changle sneered secretly in her heart, she greeted Gu Yi and Miaomiao, “Yi, Miaomiao, welcome home.”

Miaomiao didn’t really want to talk to Gu Changle. Nevertheless, she still called her auntie.

Gu Changle nodded smilingly.

Then Miaomiao threw herself at Shao Tianze, “Hug me, daddy.”

Shao Tianze did love this little daughter. Hearing that, Shao Tianze reached out and scooped her up in his arms.

Ding Ali and Gu Changle both looked at this coldly.

Shao Tianze pampered her too much.

She shouldn’t have got such a favor.

“Daddy, I want dessert.”

Miaomiao wrapped her arms around Shao Tianze’s neck, throwing herself at him.

Shao Tianze was so submissive to his daughter, replying, “I’ve asked Aunt Ali to make desserts for you, your favorite red-bean cakes.”

“I don’t want to have red-bean cakes today. I want to eat Mango Layer Pancakes.”

“I’ll get someone to buy it for you now.” Shao Tianze was going to make a call with Miaomiao in his arms.

But Miaomiao gave Shao Tianze a peck on the cheek, asking, “Daddy, take me to the bakery, OK?”

Being kissed by his own daughter, Shao Tianze nodded like a lamb, “OK, I’ll take you there right away.”

Seeing that Shao Tianze was going out with Miaomiao in his arms, Ding Ali immediately called out, “I’ll go with you.”

Gu Changle sighed gently, looking at Ding Ali scornfully.

Miaomiao looked at Shao Tianze, feeling a bit down, saying, “I only want to go with daddy and my brother.”

Obviously, Miaomiao didn’t want Ding Ali to come along.

Shao Tianze called Gu Yi, ignoring Ding Ali, “Yi, come with us.”

Gu Yi was smart. Knowing that Gu Changle was valued by Shao Tianze, he said, “Auntie, why not come with us?”

Gu Changle replied smilingly, “Thanks for inviting me. But I’m afraid that I can’t as I’m not feeling well today.”

Her words distinguished herself from Ding Ali.

One wanted to follow them but was refused.

The other didn’t want to go even though the kids invited her to.

Now it was easy to tell who the woman of greater value in the Shao Family was.

Shao Tianze felt a bit strange, asking Gu Changle, “You are not coming?”

Gu Changle wore a kind smile, replying, “Enjoy your family reunion. I feel like staying at home.”

Jealousy could be sensed in her words.

But as the kids were around, it was not appropriate for Shao Tianze to comfort Gu Changle now.

So he just nodded, replying, “I’ll bring back some dessert. How about some Schwarzwald Cakes?”

Gu Changle smiled softly, “Sure. Anything will do.”

Shao Tianze’s questions distressed Ding Ali enormously.

She had thought that Shao Tianze would also ask her. However, Shao Tianze left with Gu Yi and Miaomiao right after getting Gu Changle’s reply.

Ding Ali was filled with anger, but she couldn’t release it on anyone else.

She sighed and walked them out. Then she returned after seeing them off.

Seeing Ali, Gu Changle pointed at the nearby sofa, saying, “Don’t be jealous, sister. Tianze always dotes on Miaomiao.”

Ding Ali wore a smile, having mixed feelings.

Judging from his love for his daughter, it was easy to tell how much he expected of his son.

If she didn’t try harder, her own kid would not be able to establish himself in the Shao Family after birth.

She pressed her lips, scrolling through various outcomes in her head.

Seeing that Ding Ali was in a state of preoccupation, Gu Changle didn’t feel like continuing.

Anyway, Ding Ali would feel threatened on seeing how much Shao Tianze doted on his daughter. So she might as well save her breath.

…

Shao Tianze put Miaomiao into the car and then drove her to the bakery.

As soon as they arrived at the bakery, Shao Tianze told Miaomiao to order whatever she liked.

Though Miaomiao ate like a bird, she always wanted to have a taste of delectable desserts.

Shao Tianze held her in his arms and let her choose the one she wanted.

The servant who was following them behind couldn’t help gushing as she felt Miaomiao was so cute, “Your daughter is so cute.”

As Miaomiao was focusing on the delectable and elaborate dessert, she didn’t care much about a stranger’s praise.

However, just at that moment, a woman’s voice came from a nearby cabinet, “That goes without saying. Our Miaomiao is the cutest princess in the world.”

Hearing that, Miaomiao instantly recognized the woman. She turned her head with delight and looked in the direction where the voice was from, exclaiming, “Auntie!”

“Hi, Miaomiao.”

Shao Xue walked over from the nearby cabinet smilingly.

Shao Tianze also felt surprised to see Shao Xue, asking, “Shao Xue? What are you doing here?”

Seeing Shao Xue’s approaching, Miaomiao opened her arms and wanted Shao Xue to hug her.

Shao Xue held Miaomiao in her arms, explaining, “I felt a sudden urge to have some dessert. There is a new arrival called Cherry Pudding in this shop. So I came to have a taste of it.”

Miaomiao pecked Shao Xue on the face, wondering, “Cherry Pudding?”

Hearing that, Shao Xue replied, “Yeah, a yummy Cherry Pudding! Let’s enjoy it together, OK? My treat.”

With that, Shao Xue pecked Miaomiao on the face.

Miaomiao accepted with delight, “OK!”

Being cradled in Shao Xue’s arms, Miaomiao chose many delectable desserts in the window. After that, Shao Xue took her back to the seat.

Gu Yi also greeted Shao Xue, “Auntie.”

“Good boy.”

Shao Xue reached out and rubbed Gu Yi’s little head.

Miaomiao sat on the seat, waiting for the desserts.

She looked at the shop’s publicity photos of desserts with Shao Xue, and her eyes were twinkling with merriment.

Seeing that Miaomiao was so attentive, Shao Xue asked Shao Tianze, “When did they return?”

Shao Tianze answered her, “Just this afternoon.”

Hearing that, Shao Xue smiled, replying, “I see. So you won’t send them abroad again, right? It’s really tough to study abroad.”

Miaomiao couldn’t agree with Shao Xue’s words more. She blinked at Shao Tianze, imploring, “Daddy, don’t send me and my brother abroad again, OK?”

Shao Tianze smiled, replying, “OK.”

This time, he didn’t plan to send them away in a short time.

After getting Shao Tianze’s approval, Miaomiao turned to look at Shao Xue, wondering, “Auntie, why didn’t you wait for me at home, and why didn’t you know that I would be back?”

Hearing Miaomiao’s question, Shao Xue felt a bit embarrassed, “Because I haven’t been living in the Shao Family lately.”

Miaomiao got a bit angry on hearing Shao Xue’s reply, grumbling, “So you won’t live with me in the future?”

Shao Xue felt that it was a tricky question, so she turned to Shao Tianze.

Miaomiao also turned to look at Shao Tianze, asking, “Daddy, did you turn my auntie out?”

Hearing Miaomiao’s question, Shao Tianze explained helplessly, “Your aunt moved out because of her work.”

“So let her move back and live with me, OK?”

Miaomiao looked at Shao Tianze, imploringly with her big eyes.

Shao Tianze looked at his daughter, fretting.

Shao Xue reached out to stroke Miaomiao’s hair, saying, “Miaomiao, only if I go back to work in the head office can I move back. Otherwise, I will be late for work because of the poor traffic.”

Miaomiao frowned and continued saying to Shao Tianze, “Daddy, transfer my auntie back to the head office, OK? I want to be with my auntie all the time.”

Looking at his cute daughter, Shao Tianze pondered for a moment, replying, “Sure, as long as you are happy.”

Since Ding Ali had moved into the Shao Family, it might not be a bad idea to bring Shao Xue back as well.

She could accompany Miaomiao with Ding Ali.

Besides, judging from Miaomiao and Ding Ali’s first acquaintance, Miaomiao didn’t like Ding Ali.

In this case, Miaomiao might be much happier if Shao Xue came to live with her.

Shao Tianze readily accepted, which also delighted Shao Xue. She looked at Miaomiao smilingly, “That’s great! I’ll live with you from now on and play with you every day!”

Miaomiao threw herself into Shao Xue’s arms.

Shao Xue stroked her hair with pleasure.

She had been thinking about how to return to the Shao Family before today. Now it seemed that it was a wise choice to take advantage of Miaomiao.
