Chapter 752 The Murderous Act
Just after Christmas, heavy snow suddenly came down in Yuncheng.
Sitting on the bed, Miaomiao watched the snowflakes float in through the gaps in the curtains. She frowned and jumped off the bed.
The nurse responsible for taking care of her was taking a nap.
Hearing the sound of Miaomiao getting out of bed, the nurse woke up immediately.
She hurriedly got up to hold Miaomiao, “Ah! Miss, how could you get out of bed and walk around without wearing shoes?”
Gu Miaomiao did not speak. However, she obviously did not like the nurse who was holding her. Miaomiao frowned and pushed the nurse, trying to get out of her arms.
Being pushed by Gu Miaomiao, the nurse patiently said, “Miss, it’s cold now. You have not fully recovered. You should not get out of bed or walk around. Listen to me and be good, OK?”
The nurse put Miaomiao on the bed forcibly, covered her with the quilt, and turned to close the window.
Seeing that the window, from which snowflakes had come in, was closed, Miaomiao furrowed her brow and became unhappy.
However, the nurse was only responsible for taking care of her health and did not observe the child’s expression.
After closing the window, the nurse sat back on the chair beside the bed and asked Miaomiao, “Miss, do you want to listen to the story?”
She picked up the fairy tale book and shook it to Miaomiao.
With creased brows, Miaomiao turned her head away and ignored the nurse.
Her gaze was still on the outside of the window.
Seeing Miaomiao keep looking out the window, the nurse thought she was not interested in fairy tale books.
So, the nurse picked up the fruit on the plate and said to Miaomiao, “Miss, do you want some fruit?”
Miaomiao still looked out the window without moving.
After being ignored several times in a row, the nurse frowned, thought about it, and asked again, “Miss, do you want to talk to me?”
Miaomiao heard her talking but completely ignored her.
The nurse hoped that Miaomiao could say something, even a word.
However, Miaomiao completely ignored her, not to mention talking to her as she expected.
The nurse felt helpless and sighed softly. Then, she picked up the paring knife and began to peel the fruit.
After peeling, she carefully cut the fruit into small pieces and placed them on a small plate. She said to Miaomiao, “Miss, tell me if you want something to eat. I will buy it for you right away.”
Miaomiao ignored her.
The nurse had no choice but to think about how to make Miaomiao happy.
As she thought, she peeled the fruit.
The door rang slightly and was pushed open.
When Miaomiao heard the sound, her eyes moved slightly, but she didn’t turn her head to look.
When the nurse heard the door opened, she turned her head to look.
Then, she saw Shao Tianze walk into the room.
Shao Tianze saw that his daughter was sitting on the bed and the nurse was peeling fruit. He asked the nurse, “How is Miaomiao?”
The nurse quickly got up from her seat and respectfully said to Shao Tianze, “She still refuses to eat or talk.”
“She doesn’t even eat anything?”
Shao Tianze frowned and asked the nurse.
The nurse nodded embarrassedly.
Shao Tianze felt very worried and turned to see her daughter, “Miaomiao, in any case, you need to eat. If there is anything you want to say to me, just say it.”
After speaking, Shao Tianze felt that there were some things that the nurse could not hear. He said to the nurse, “Please leave us alone.”
Hearing what Shao Tianze said, the nurse naturally knew that she shouldn’t hear what they were going to talk about next. She nodded and left the ward.
After the nurse went out, Shao Tianze closed the door and told Miaomiao, “Say what you want, Miaomiao.”
Gu Miaomiao paid no attention to what he said, let alone turned to look at him.
Seeing her daughter’s indifferent response, Shao Tianze frowned and said, “Miaomiao, the past is over. Even if you are sad and hate me, things can’t be made up. Moreover, those were accidents.”
Gu Miaomiao gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.
She had a lot to say, but she could not say it.
In the end, she could only lie down on the bed and get under the quilt.
Seeing her daughter’s movements, Shao Tianze was afraid that her daughter would be suffocated. He reached out to pull the quilt away for her.
Although the child did not speak, she exhausted all her strength to hold on to the quilt and was unwilling to loosen it.
Shao Tianze pulled the cover for a long time but failed. He was afraid that he would hurt his daughter, so he sat down, “Well, I know you don’t want to see me. I’m leaving now. But you have to eat after I leave. Otherwise, your mother will be worried.”
Shao Tianze mentioned her mother.
Miaomiao’s tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably.
Seeing her daughter curled up in the quilt, Shao Tianze had no choice but to leave the ward.
Miaomiao’s face was full of tears.
After hearing that Shao Tianze had indeed left the room, she released the quilt, picked up a pillow, and continued crying.
Shao Tianze wanted to talk to her daughter very much and explain to her.
However, he also knew that his daughter had firmly believed that he was the murderer, no matter how he explained it.
He could change the child’s mind, but it was very difficult.
He had planned to treat the child well after Gu Changge passed away. He did not want this child to know that he had killed Gu Changge.
Unfortunately, the child knew about it.
After Yuan Xi appeared, Miaomiao found out all his secrets, which were the last things she could know.
Shao Tianze sighed and walked away from the door of the ward.
He planned to ask how Yuan Xi was going.
After Shao Tianze left the ward, the nurse wanted to return to the room and continue to take care of Miaomiao.
But when the nurse was about to enter the room, she heard a woman’s voice coming from a distance.
“Stop.”
Hearing the sound, the nurse stopped.
Then, she turned to find who was talking.
After confirming that Shao Tianze had left, Gu Changle walked out from the corner of the corridor. She walked to the nurse, “Let me go in and see Miaomiao.”
Hearing that she wanted to see Miaomiao, the nurse immediately shook her hand, “Sorry, Miss Gu, Mr. Shao doesn’t allow you to go in or see Miaomiao.”
Hearing the nurse’s words, Gu Changle narrowed her eyes.
She took off the diamond bracelet and held it up in front of the maid, “Will you let me in? Or do you want me to slap you?”
When the nurse saw the diamond bracelet Gu Changle was holding, she became hesitant.
Even if the nurse did not know about jewelry, she still knew that Gu Changle’s bracelet must be very expensive after seeing it clearly.
Her purpose of working as a nurse and taking care of this child was to make money.
Gu Changle’s bracelet in front of her might be equivalent to the money she could make after working for about ten years.
She wanted to take it, but she did not dare to reach out her hand. It was because Mr. Shao, who hired her, had told her that Gu Changle was not allowed to visit Miaomiao, especially.
She should obey Mr. Shao’s order. It would be wrong for her to let Miss Gu enter the ward now.
“Take this bracelet and you don’t need to be a nurse for the rest of your life. Don’t you want it?”
Gu Changle asked her.
The nurse lowered her head and hesitated.
Gu Changle said again, “I won’t do anything. Why are you all blocking me? I just want to see my sister’s child. I’m her aunt. After not seeing her for so long, I miss her very much. Please allow me to go in and see her. I will be out soon. Moreover, you can get this bracelet. Isn’t it great for you?”
The nurse twisted her fingers together and hesitated.
She looked up at the beautiful diamond bracelet several times, but she refused to nod in agreement.
Gu Changle knew she was hesitating, but she didn’t want her to think for too long. Therefore, Gu Changle put the bracelet directly into the nurse’s hand.
Suddenly getting this bracelet, the nurse looked up at Gu Changle in amazement, “Miss Gu, this bracelet, I...”
“Just take it. I gave it to you. Now please stand aside and don’t enter the ward. I want to go in and visit my niece.”
After speaking, Gu Changle opened the door directly and walked in.
Holding the bracelet, the nurse was surprised and happy but also felt something wrong.
However, she could not tell what was wrong.
She simply stopped thinking. Then, holding the bracelet, she went to the side to carefully observe the diamonds and craftsmanship of the bracelet.
After great effort, Gu Changle finally entered the ward. She saw Gu Miaomiao curled up in the quilt, like a little ball. She looked quite pitiful.
When Gu Changle approached the sickbed, she heard a low cry.
Recalling that Shao Tianze had been here just now, Gu Changle guessed that he might explain Gu Changge’s death to the child.
Otherwise, the child would not have cried for so long in the quilt.
She walked up to the bed, trying to reach out to open the quilt.
But when her finger was about to touch the quilt, she stopped.
Then, she squeezed her fingers tensely and squinted her eyes.
As she looked at the quilt, a terrifying thought quickly occupied her brain.
What if she did not lift the quilt but pressed the quilt at this time?
Wouldn’t many things be resolved if she stifled Gu Miaomiao with the quilt?
Not only could she get the reward from the Yuan Family, but she could also get rid of the thorn in her flesh smoothly.
After that, she could live in the Shao Family with peace of mind.
She took a breath, narrowed her eyes, and slowly stretched out her hands to the quilt covering Miaomiao.
