Chapter 307 - Why Are You Crying?
"Zi Er, calm down. Your blood pressure is going to rise if you get this furious," Shui Shui said in a mellowed tone. At the moment, she did not know what to say to make her calm down.
"Calm down? What is so calm about the truth I just found out?" Yang Zi scoffed as she shot Shui Shui a murderous glare. Shui Shui who hadn't seen her best friend this angry in a long time shivered. She was afraid Yang Zi might do something unimaginable if she goes on like this.
I better take her to the main mansion. I am sure with the usual playful Mi Er around, she won't be able to remain so upset.
Shui Shui thought as she quickly made a detour. About five minutes later, Yang Zi's phone rang. At first, she didn't want to answer the call but when the caller repeatedly called, Yang Zi had no choice but to remove her phone from her black handbag. Seeing that the caller was Mi Er, she took in a deep breath to calm herself down. She did not want to make her baby worried.
"Hello mum, good afternoon. Has mummy called you today?" Mi Er said with her tiny voice.
"Baby, what is wrong? Why do you sound worried?" Yang Zi asked calmly.
Thank goodness she has calmed down. I have always down that Mi Er has a special calming effect on her. She is the only one who can calm Zi Er down.
Shui Shui thought as she heaved a sigh of relief.
"Mummy isn't at home and she hasn't answered my calls either. Nanny said she and Mr Jiang went to the mall but since I returned from school, I haven't seen her. According to Nanny it has been over seven hours since she left but she hasn't returned," Mi Er said in a worried tone.
"Mi Er, calm down. Don't panic, I am sure mum is ok, alright. I am coming back now so just relax. I will call mum on my way there, I am sure she will answer my calls," Yang Zi coaxed.
"Mummy has never missed my calls...,"
"Mi Er, hand over the phone to your Nanny," Yang Zi ordered on realising that her baby wasn't at ease at all. Yang Mi reluctantly handed the phone to her Nanny standing beside her.
"Nanny make sure to calm Mi Er down. Don't let her panic, I am on my way home," Yang Zi instructed firmly.
"Ok, Young Miss. I will try my best to calm her down before you arrive," the Nanny said before she disconnected the call.
"Shui Shui, drive faster. We need to get home right now. I can't afford to see my baby cry," Yang Zi said seriously before she focused her attention on the road. At that moment she completely forgot about the incident of meeting her uncle in the restaurant.
Shui Shui who wasn't aware of what happened increased the speed of the car.
The moment the car stopped in front of the mansion, Yang Zi hurried into the mansion without even waiting for Shui Shui to park the car.
In the sitting room, Yang Zi from the entrance could hear Yang Mi crying. The moment Yang Mi sighted her sister from afar she rushed to hug her. Yang Zi knelt and spread her hands.
The running Yang Mi embraced her tightly when she reached the kneeling Yang Zi.
"Baby, what is wrong? Why are you crying?" Yang Zi asked as she patted the back of the crying Yang Mi.
"Who bullied you? Tell me and elder sister will instantly avenge you," Yang Zi said as she picked Yang Mi off the floor. She carried her to the couch. She sat down on the couch and placed Yang Mi on her lap. It was at this moment that Shui Shui entered the sitting room.
"Sister Zi Er, I am worried about mummy. Mummy has never ignored Mi Er's calls but she has not replied to any of my messages. She hasn't also returned my calls. I am scared....,"
"Sshh... Mi Er, nothing is wrong with mum. She is fine, ok. Maybe something urgent came up in the company that needed her attention that is why she did not have the time to inform us or return our calls so calm down ok," Yang Zi assured, as she cupped the little girl's face.
"Ok, I trust Sister Zi Er's words. Mr Jiang is huge and strong, I am sure he will not let something bad happen to mummy," Yang Mi said as she hugged Yang Zi.
Yang Zi continued patting her back. Yang Mi was too scared and worried to notice the presence of her godmother.
Yang Zi patted Yang Mi's back until she fell asleep in her arms.
"Shui Shui, wait for me. I will be back after tucking her in," Yang Zi said before she carried the sleeping Mi Er to her room. She came to the sitting room about ten minutes later.
"For our naughty Mi Er to have easily fallen asleep, I guess she must have cried for a long time," Shui Shui commented the moment Yang Zi sat beside her.
"I have never seen her look so worried and scared. I feel so terrible seeing her in this condition," Yang Zi said resting her back against the couch.
"Zi Er, this is not the time to feel sad but the time to quickly find out what is wrong with Auntie before Mi Er wakes up. It will be very hard to calm her down if she wakes and does not find her mummy sitting at her bedside," Shui Shui said, as she stared at the sad Yang Zi.
"Gosh! I almost forgot the reason my baby was crying," Yang Zi said as she instantly sat up. She focused her piercing glares on the Nanny.
"Can you tell us where exactly mum went to? The colour of dress she was wearing? Who did she go out with and what was her expression when she left?" Yang Zi asked in a serious tone.
