After Mother Zhao and Zhao Yuning came back from the restaurant that day, they both caught a cold because they were caught in the rain.

Zhao Yuning was a boy after all, so he was fine after drinking a bowl of ginger soup made by the nanny that night. Mother Zhao, on the other hand, fell seriously ill.

It seemed to be an external illness, but it was actually a psychological illness.

The Zhao Family knew why, but they couldn't do anything about it. Zhao Mingxi was almost 18 years old, so they couldn't bring her back by force.

Even if they brought her back, they couldn't go back to the past. Zhao Mingxi would only hate them more.

The people of the Zhao family finally realized this point.

But no matter what, the Zhao Family didn't give up. Blood ties were the most unbreakable thing in the world. Zhao Mingxi could be angry and resent them for a year or two, but she couldn't abandon them for the rest of her life.

Moreover, they now knew how to repent and make up for it. As time passed, wouldn't their relationship gradually improve?

The problem now was how to ease it.

Just like what Mother Zhao and Zhao Yuning saw outside the restaurant, Zhao Mingxi didn't even look at them when she saw them, let alone greet them.

If he went to find her directly, it wouldn't work at all. She would definitely turn around and leave like before.

She might not even be able to say half a word, and it would be futile and annoying.

They had to think of other ways to make her soften slowly.

The Zhao Family was thinking of their own ways.

Father Zhao was still unaware of the situation. Although he heard Zhao Zhanhuai talk about what happened during this period of time, he still felt that Mingxi might be angry for a moment, and this matter could be changed.

Mingxi was disappointed because the family was biased toward Zhao Yuan. These feelings of disappointment accumulated layer by layer, leading her to finally decide to leave the family.

So where was the source?

It was bias.

Father Zhao had a private talk with everyone in the family. He emphasized that they must treat Zhao Yuan and Zhao Mingxi equally in the future. Whether Mingxi was around or not, they must be fair and just.

The situation of Mother Zhao giving Mingxi's dress to Zhao Yuan at the birthday party last time couldn't happen again.

He especially lectured Zhao Mo. "Watch your mouth. It's fine if you talk nonsense usually, but do something special at critical times."

He also said to Mother Zhao, "You have the biggest impact on Mingxi. You must be fair and impartial in the future. Moreover, Mingxi is our biological daughter. It's okay to be more biased toward her at this time.

Zhao Zhanhuai also talked to Zhao Mo and Mother Zhao.

He mainly reprimanded Zhao Mo. "To be honest, if you had waited for me that day and didn't go to Mingxi so impulsively, you might not have been sent to the police station, and things wouldn't have developed like this.

You're the direct fuse.

Zhao Mo was so angry that he laughed. "Now, because of a little girl, the whole family is making such a big fuss, right? And you're all lecturing me?

How would I know that that day — "

Before he could finish, Father Zhao walked in and slapped him hard on the back of his head. "I've already told you!

Change the wording of your language!

Don't you know how to say 'little sister'? Why do you have to say 'little girl'?

This is all because of you!

If you still want to stay at home, go to the study and copy the word 'little sister' a hundred times! "

Father Zhao's face was livid.

He had always been the image of a strict father. Everyone in the family was afraid of him.

Zhao Mo's anger crept into his heart, but he suppressed it and turned to the study to copy Chinese words.

Zhao Zhanhuai and Mother Zhao's conversation mainly focused on analyzing the reason why things had turned out this way.

The two of them recalled some past events. The more they thought about it, the more they remembered that they had neglected Zhao Mingxi because of Zhao Yuan. Mother Zhao's face turned pale and she started crying again.

Zhao Zhanhuai felt a headache coming on. He reminded Mother Zhao, "In the future, you have to focus on these details and pay attention to Mingxi's feelings." After that, he left in a hurry.

Apart from that, Father Zhao also held a meeting with the family's chauffeur and other employees. He emphasized that Zhao Mingxi was their biological daughter and they must not neglect her in the future.

If something like Nanny Zhang happened again, they would be fired.
