Wen Shuqiao didn't care whether the other party believed her or not, or whether they were confused or surprised. She hung up the phone immediately after finishing her sentence.

But when she looked up, she saw Can Can staring at her curiously. However, after she looked over, Can Can immediately buried her head in her porridge and started eating with a spoon. Her eating speed was much slower than before, which meant she seemed to have some strength back.

Wen Shuqiao pushed the steamed bun in front of him: "Don't you like steamed buns?"

Cancan said crisply, "I like it!"

Then, he awkwardly tried to pick up the steamed bun in front of him with chopsticks. Wen Shuqiao took the initiative to pick up the bun and put it on the lid next to him: "Use your hands."

Can Can immediately gave up her chopsticks, held the bun with both hands, and started eating.

It's a meat bun!

Can Can's eyes lit up! So delicious! He had never eaten such delicious meat buns before!

Seeing the gleam in his eyes, Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile, wondering if it was really that delicious.

She picked up another bun and took a bite.

It was alright. The meat was barely fresh, but not as good as what I made myself.

Wen Shuqiao took a couple of bites and put the rest down. Because she was an orphan in her previous life, she was very particular about food. When she was little, there wasn't much to eat in the kindergarten, and with so many children, everyone only got a small amount.

So after Wen Shuqiao became independent, she developed a particular fondness for food research and even ran a food-related account with a decent number of followers, earning a considerable amount of money each month.

Wen Shuqiao glanced at the original owner's balance again. Now the question was, how to get money?

The original owner's money was far from enough to make ends meet, and there was an even more urgent matter at hand: moving to a new house.

Wen Shuqiao put her phone aside and looked at Cancan sitting opposite her. The child was still wearing adult clothes. There was one more thing to do: buy clothes for Cancan.

“Chen…” Wen Shuqiao paused, then changed her words to “Cancan.”

Can Can looked up at his aunt and quickly swallowed the bun in his mouth, but because he swallowed it too quickly, it got stuck in his throat. Wen Shu Qiao was so scared that she quickly went to his side and fed him water while patting his chest: "Don't rush."

Can Can drank some water, swallowed the steamed bun, turned to look at Wen Shu Qiao, and immediately apologized, "Auntie, I'm sorry, I won't do it again."

Wen Shuqiao pursed her lips, and could tell from the young male lead's words that he was still very scared.

Instead, she patted Can Can's head and said, "You don't need to apologize to your aunt. Your aunt just wanted to say that after you've eaten, she'll take you out to buy clothes."

With teary eyes, Cancan looked at Wen Shuqiao and then nodded: "Auntie, okay."

He felt his aunt pat his head twice more. So this is how warm his aunt's hands are?

His aunt is so nice! He's starting to like her.

Wen Shuqiao is a person who does what she says. After the little male protagonist finished eating, she carried him out.

She discovered that the original owner had even lost the child's shoes, and she couldn't imagine how he had survived the past week.

The location of the rented apartment was very convenient; there were shopping malls and supermarkets just a few steps away. Wen Shuqiao quickly bought everything she wanted, changed Can Can's clothes, and then contacted a real estate agent to view the apartment.

After all, there are only about ten days left until the end of the month. If we don't check now, the end of the month will be tough.

However, Wen Shuqiao felt that she was really lucky. She found a house she liked after looking at it with the agent, and the price was also right. It was paid quarterly, at 2,800 yuan a month.

Although it's an old neighborhood, the surrounding facilities are quite complete, and the kindergarten isn't far away.

If she remembers correctly, the young male lead's uncle will find him soon and give him a better education. All she needs to do is take good care of the young male lead in the early stages and wait for his uncle to come and pick him up.

Wen Shuqiao's thoughts were simple: after the young male lead left, she would go to another city and live out the second life God had given her in peace.

She readily signed the contract and then contacted a cleaning service to do another cleaning. By the time everything was finished, it was already afternoon.

While she was doing her work, the young male lead followed her quietly like a little tail, without disturbing her.

Wen Shuqiao thought for a moment, then took his hand and led him to the second bedroom. She squatted down and said, "This will be your room from now on. Auntie will buy you some of your favorite dolls later, okay?"

Can Can stared longingly at the large room, then quietly hummed in agreement, "Thank you, Auntie."

Wen Shuqiao patted his head. The little male lead looked even better in his new clothes. He would probably look even better once he gained some weight.

Can Can looked at Wen Shu Qiao, seemingly struggling with something, but in the end she moved closer to Wen Shu Qiao and kissed her cheek.

He remembered his mother saying that if you like someone, you should kiss them!

Wen Shuqiao was a little confused by the kiss, and then she heard Can Can whisper, "Auntie, I like you."

Wen Shuqiao smiled and gave him a generous kiss on the cheek: "Yes, Auntie likes Xiaobao too."

Can Can stared wide-eyed. What did his aunt just call him?

Little Bao?!

It seems she really likes him! Because only his mother would call him that!

Can Can was happy again. The headmistress was right; only someone who liked him would take him home! But why did his aunt seem to dislike him before?

Even after being led away from her new home by Wen Shuqiao, Cancan still didn't understand why.

When Wen Shuqiao led the young male protagonist home, an uninvited guest was standing at the door.

She was wary for a moment, but quickly calmed down.

The man frowned as he looked at her: "Wen Shuqiao! Where have you been? I can't get through to you on the phone!"
