When Wen Shuqiao came down with Cancan's little scarf, she noticed that Cancan was acting strangely, always covering her mouth and secretly laughing.

She knelt down and put the little scarf on him, then asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Cancan's round eyes sparkled: "I'm so happy!"

Wen Shuqiao didn't ask any more questions, probably because she had finally eaten the coconut chicken she had been craving and was still savoring the taste.

After standing up, she looked at Shen Jiazhou: "Are you going back to the company now?"

Shen Jiazhou glanced at his watch: "No rush, I'll take you home first."

"No need, I've taken him to see a house. You can go straight back to the company." Wen Shuqiao waved to Cancan, who immediately let go of Shen Jiazhou's hand and returned to her side.

Shen Jiazhou's gaze fell on Cancan, who chuckled twice and buried her face in Wen Shuqiao's side so her uncle wouldn't see.

You little brat, you're going to use me and then throw me away, huh?

However, he wasn't about to hold a grudge against a little kid. Wen Shuqiao subconsciously patted Can Can's head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Can Can hugged her waist and looked up: "Auntie, I..."

Before he could speak, Shen Jiazhou interrupted him: "I'm fine, I'll go with you to take a look."

After saying that, he gave Can Can a nonchalant glance. Can Can quickly shut her mouth. What a close call! She almost let it slip! Luckily, her uncle was smart!

Shen Jiazhou stretched out his hand to Cancan: "Come here."

Afraid of letting something slip again, Can Can reluctantly let go of her aunt's waist and went over to take Shen Jiazhou's hand.

The uncle and nephew walked out the door hand in hand, looking at each other with a puzzled expression. They seemed strange to Wen Shuqiao, as if they were hiding something from her.

Shen Jiazhou noticed that Wen Shuqiao hadn't followed, so he turned around and asked, "What are you doing standing over there?"

Wen Shuqiao snapped out of her daze and followed after him.

The apartment the agent found for her today was quite nice. It was still a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment, but with great natural light. It was in a new neighborhood, and everything in the apartment was new.

The only problem is that it's a bit far from Shen Jiazhou's home; it takes at least twenty minutes by car, not even counting traffic jams.

Moreover, since it's a new residential area, there aren't many recreational facilities nearby, let alone a kindergarten.

The agent said, "This house is one of the better ones in your budget. If you're not satisfied, you'll have to raise your budget."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Shen Jiazhou, who was holding Cancan's hand. The two of them were looking at the bedroom.

After looking away, the agent continued, "Your husband is really handsome. Why haven't I seen him looking at houses with you before?"

Wen Shuqiao said, "No, it's the child's uncle."

The agent smiled sheepishly: "Oh, I thought it was your husband."

I was thinking, they're such a good-looking couple.

Wen Shuqiao said, "I'll think about it some more."

The agent said, "Sis, you know we bring a lot of clients to see houses every day. We've been dealing with each other for so long, so let me give you some peace of mind. This morning, my colleague brought someone to see this house, and they were quite satisfied. If you don't sign now, someone else might sign it later."

At this moment, Shen Jiazhou came out with Cancan and said, "Let's think about it some more."

Wen Shuqiao nodded in agreement: "We'll think about it some more."

The agent nodded: "Okay, I just wanted to let you know. If you're not satisfied, I'll help you find something else. It's fine."

After saying goodbye to the real estate agent, Wen Shuqiao got into the car. Shen Jiazhou glanced at the rearview mirror and asked, "How about I help you find one?"

Wen Shuqiao looked out the window. The new residential area might bring a lot of problems, the biggest of which would be the noise from the renovation.

Moreover, she smelled a strong odor as soon as she entered the house, which meant it had probably just been renovated not long ago. She didn't know if the formaldehyde had been removed yet, so she was a little hesitant to take the gamble.

Asking Shen Jiazhou for help did indeed lead to finding a decent house, and the price of that house was definitely within her budget. However, the extra money would surely be subsidized by some kind-hearted person out of their own pocket.

Wen Shuqiao withdrew her gaze and sighed softly, "No need, she said she'll help me look again."

She also looked ahead, and after making eye contact with Shen Jiazhou in the rearview mirror, she thought for a moment and said, "If I really can't find it, I will definitely ask for your help."

Shen Jiazhou slowly withdrew his gaze, thinking to himself, "It was just a casual remark."

He dutifully escorted them to their apartment building and then said, "I have a business dinner tonight, so I might be back late. You and Cancan don't need to wait for me to come home for dinner."

Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Drive safely."

Shen Jiazhou then looked at Cancan and said, "Don't forget what you said."

Can Can covered his mouth and nodded firmly, determined not to forget. He would stop talking right now!

Shen Jiazhou restarted the car: "Bye-bye."

Wen Shuqiao waved her hand, and Can Can waved back, then immediately covered her mouth.

Shen Jiazhou smiled and drove away.

Once the car was out of sight, Wen Shuqiao asked, "What were you talking about?"

Can Can shook her head seriously, "I can't say! I can't say!"

Wen Shuqiao raised an eyebrow, not in a hurry. Anyway, once he got home and played for a while, he would forget about keeping it a secret.

But in fact, Wen Shuqiao was wrong. Cancan really kept his mouth shut this time. As soon as he got home, he went to play with Milk Cake. When she asked him, Cancan replied in a muffled voice, "No, baby has no secrets."

His dark, bright eyes revealed a hint of innocence and honesty, as if he were proving to the other party that what he said was true.
