Chapter 570 The Owner of the Room
One day after getting Shao Tianze’s permission, Shao Xue returned to work in the head office.
Gu Changle didn’t know about it until everything was set.
So Gu Changle was stupefied on seeing Shao Xue entered the Shao Family with her luggage. She asked her, “Why are you back?”
“My brother lets me return.” Shao Xue wore a smile and told a servant standing by, “Help me to take my luggage to my room.”
The servant knew who Shao Xue was.
But she remained motionless after hearing Shao Xue’s order this time.
Sensing that something was wrong, Shao Xue frowned, asking the servant, “Problem?”
The servant did nothing but frowned.
At this moment, Gu Changle explained, “Your room no longer exists. There is nowhere to put your luggage.”
Hearing that, Shao Xue stared at Gu Changle, asking, “What happened?”
Gu Changle smiled, replying, “You’d better ask your elder brother about it.”
Ding Ali popped into Shao Xue’s head.
But she remained silent.
Gu Changle suddenly said, “Do you know that your elder brother met a woman?”
Shao Xue pressed her lips, answering, “No.”
Hearing that, Gu Changle sighed and prepared to walk upstairs. It seemed that she was going to return to her room. She said, “Not important now, as I’ve told you about it. Your elder brother likes her very much, and she didn’t let him down. She is now pregnant and has moved into the Shao Family.”
Shao Xue understood Gu Changle’s words.
She nodded, replying, “I got it.”
Seeing Gu Changle enter her room, Shao Xue went straight upstairs and walked to her room.
Shao Xue returned to the Shao Family early in the morning, and Ding Ali was a sleepyhead.
So Ding Ali was still sleeping soundly in the bed when Shao Xue pushed the door open.
Worrying that things might get ugly, a servant followed Shao Xue closely.
Seeing that Shao Xue entered Ding Ali’s room, she immediately talked some sense into her, “Miss Shao, I’m afraid that Miss Ali hasn’t woken up yet.”
“This is my room.” Shao Xue walked to the wardrobe.
She opened it and saw that it was filled with clothes that didn’t belong to her. Then she took all the clothes out and tossed them into the servant’s arms, ignoring Ding Ali, who was sleeping in the bed.
Seeing that, the servant wanted to stop Shao Xue.
However, Shao Xue deterred her, “This is my room. Without my permission, no one can put anything in my room. I don’t want to see anything that doesn’t belong to me here. Get someone to take the clothes away right now. I’ll move into my room today.”
Words failed the servant. She goggled, worrying that Ding Ali might be hard on them from now on.
“Miss Shao, Miss Ali is now living in your room.”
Hearing that, Shao Xue nodded, turned around, and walked to her bed.
Seeing that Ding Ali seemed to be woken up as she was rubbing her eyes, Shao Xue slightly bent over and threw back the cover on Ding Ali.
Ding Ali gave a little cry of astonishment and reached out to tug her nightgown.
However, she was so slow that Shao Xue had seen her body clearly.
Seeing that Ding Ali was fully awake after the cover had been thrown back, Shao Xue smiled, saying, “Nice. You do look s.e.xy in this nightgown, but…”
Ding Ali scowled at Shao Xue, berating, “What are you doing? Why are you in my room?”
Shao Xue felt amused, chuckling and turning to look at the servant standing by, “Change the bedding later. I don’t want to sleep in the bed where others have slept. Or you can change the whole bed.”
The servant felt a bit astonished on hearing Shao Xue’s order.
Hearing that, Ding Ali flew into a rage, saying frostily, “What do you mean by that? This is my room!”
Shao Xue sneered, “Miss, first come, first served.”
Hearing that, Ding Ali immediately thought of a possibility.
“First come, first served?” Ding Ali frowned, adding, “Tianze let me move in here first!”
Ding Ali felt confident in her words.
However, Shao Xue jeered, “I’ve lived in this room for a long time before. You don’t know it?”
Ding Ali looked Shao Xue up and down. Then she subconsciously thought that Shao Xue was Shao Tianze’s lover.
She pressed her lips, replying, “But the room no longer belongs to you since you’ve driven out. Or you can ask Tianze about it.”
Ding Ali didn’t know how many lovers Shao Tianze had. All she knew was that Gu Changle was the one Shao Tianze valued.
But out of her expectation, this woman also appeared important to Shao Tianze.
Besides, she even wanted to rob her of her room. How hateful!
Seeing that Ding Ali showed no inclination to leave, Shao Xue didn’t want to waste her breath on her, nodding, “Fine. I’ll call my brother and ask him who owns the room, you or me.”
Ding Ali thought Shao Xue was Shao Tianze’s lover just now. But she suddenly recalled that Shao Tianze had a younger sister on hearing Shao Xue called Shao Tianze brother.
She got out of her bed instantly and told the servant, “Change a room for me.”
Shao Xue was satisfied with Ding Ali’s reaction and softened her face.
However, she still felt this woman named Ding Ali annoying.
This woman had too much plastic surgery.
Shao Xue had once seen Gu Changge’s photos and she thought that Shao Tianze just found a woman who looked a bit like Gu Changge.
But out of her expectation, the woman was a carbon copy of Gu Changge.
She felt both astonished and disgusted.
Ding Ali was busy ordering servants to take her stuff out of the room without continuing to talk to Shao Xue.
After all, Shao Xue was Shao Tianze’s younger sister. She was not stupid enough to make an enemy of Shao Tianze’s kinsfolk.
Seeing that Ding Ali was ordering servants to take her stuff out of the room, Shao Xue frowned slightly, saying, “You look somewhat like my sister-in-law who had pa.s.sed away.”
Hearing that, Ding Ali turned to look at Shao Xue, replying with a smile, “We are just alike in spirit. Your elder brother thought so, too.”
“In spirit?” Shao Xue asked in reply, pursing her lips, “I hardly think so. You had plastic surgery on purpose, didn’t you?”
Shao Xue was unsparing in her words.
Ding Ali’s smile died and the look on her face hardened.
Seeing that, Shao Xue said with a sigh, “Lots of women want to curry favor with my elder brother. I hope that I can still see you here tomorrow.”
In fact, it didn’t matter to Shao Xue whether Ding Ali could stay in the Shao Family.
Because there had already been two eyesores, Gu Changle and Shao Tianze.
The only ones that didn’t annoy her were Gu Yi and Miaomiao.
Just for these two kids, she tried many ways to get back to the Shao Family.
Now she managed to return, and she knew what she should do.
She must protect the two kids. As for Ding Ali, not only did she detest her, but Gu Changle didn’t like her, either.
So now it was not her place to make a move on Ding Ali.
Shao Xue took in the situation.
Meanwhile, Ding Ali could do nothing but move out after being taught a lesson by Shao Xue.
She could only wait for Gu Changle to arrange another room for her.
After a whole morning, the servants finally finished tidying up Shao Xue’s room.
As for the clothes and articles belonging to Ding Ali, they were all tossed out of the room.
After getting up, Gu Yi and Miaomiao noticed that the family servants were busy tidying up a room.
Miaomiao was rubbing her eyes at the door in a snow-white princess nightdress.
Ding Ali halted on seeing Miaomiao and called her smilingly, “Morning, Miaomiao. You awake?”
Miaomiao looked up at Ding Ali without replying.
After such a while, she turned around and shuffled to Shao Xue’s room.
No sooner had Miaomiao reached the door than Shao Xue saw her. Shao Xue walked to her smilingly and scooped her up in her arms, asking, “Why are you up so early, Miaomiao?”
“I know you are coming back today and feel so happy, so I got up very early to wait for you!”
Shao Xue pecked Miaomiao on the cheek, saying helplessly, “Miaomiao, you are becoming better and better at making me happy! But why are you still half asleep?”
Miaomiao did just wake up, but it was true that she looked forward to Shao Xue’s return.
So she hastily explained on hearing Shao Xue’s question, “Because I was missing you last night. I slept late. I even want to get some more sleep now.”
Shao Xue looked at her smilingly, “Sleep in my room after it’s tidied up, OK?”
Miaomiao surely would like to be with Shao Xue, so she repeatedly nodded on hearing that and threw her arms around her neck, imploring, “Can I still sleep in your room tonight?”
“Sure. I’ll tell you stories.”
Hearing that, Miaomiao was over the moon.
Gu Yi heard some noise early in the morning and knew that Shao Xue had returned. But he didn’t want to care about it as it was grown-up stuff.
So he washed up in the room and waited for Miaomiao. Only after Miaomiao opened the door did he go out.
Seeing Miaomiao running joyfully to Shao Xue’s room, he followed her closely with worry.
He was silent, but he fixed his eyes on Miaomiao.
Seeing that Gu Yi was at the door, Shao Xue smiled gently, asking, “Yi? You also wake up?”
Gu Yi nodded, greeting, “Auntie.”
Shao Xue nodded with a smile.
