What type of person do you like?

Wen Shuqiao turned her attention from the cartoon to Shen Jiazhou beside her.

He was sitting very close to me, and because he was speaking in a low voice, his head was tilted towards me.

Wen Shuqiao suddenly remembered a sentence she had read before. She couldn't remember the exact words, but the general idea was that people, whether relaxed or tense, would unconsciously lean towards the people they depend on.

Shen Jiazhou looks like this now.

Shen Jiazhou looked into her eyes: "Why are you staring at me?"

Wen Shuqiao snapped out of her daze, coughed lightly, and looked away: "Why are you asking this question out of the blue?"

“I just thought of that,” Shen Jiazhou said. “Anyway, we have nothing else to do, so we’re just chatting.”

Wen Shuqiao said, "I never thought of that. This kind of thing sounds too abstract."

"Too much space?" Shen Jiazhou pondered for a moment: "But without a standard, what if we come across a suitable one and miss it?"

“When I meet him, my heart will make the decision.” Wen Shuqiao turned to look at him again: “President Shen, what about you? Do you already have a standard in your heart?”

Looking at her beautiful features, Shen Jiazhou hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Having met her, my heart has already made the decision for me."

Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "President Shen, why are you mimicking people's speech?"

"So what?" Shen Jiazhou said, "I like to mimic people's speech."

"You're cheating." Wen Shuqiao leaned back on the sofa helplessly, looking at Can Can: "Did Can Can learn this from you?"

“I didn’t.” Shen Jiazhou leaned back on the sofa with her. “Cancan is self-taught. I didn’t teach her anything wrong.”

Wen Shuqiao patted Cancan's head without saying anything, it was unclear whether she had heard him or not.

Shen Jiazhou looked at her profile, wanting to ask her some questions, but ultimately swallowed them back.

The three sat side by side, two preoccupied with their own thoughts, and one engrossed in cartoons, yet they were surprisingly harmonious.

Country M.

It felt colder than in City A. Thick snow clung to the branches along the roadside, causing them to bend downwards. Soon, the snow fell to the ground.

The underfloor heating was on inside, allowing people to shed their heavy winter clothes.

Wen Shuqiao picked up the hot tea and took a sip, feeling much warmer all over her body.

Yu Mingxue said, "You really picked the right time. It's going to snow here for several days in a row, and the temperature will drop to minus ten degrees Celsius."

Wen Shuqiao put down her teacup, and Shen Jiazhou, who was sitting next to her, said, "It's good that you've rested enough for skiing."

Yu Mingxue clicked her tongue lightly: "You've been skating for several days? My parents knew you were coming, so they're having a family dinner tomorrow at noon."

A family dinner? Wen Shuqiao looked at Shen Jiazhou.

Shen Jiazhou gave her a reassuring look: "Don't bother your uncle and aunt, we'll just come and play for a couple of days."

"It's not like I'm seeing you." Yu Mingxue gestured with her chin towards the outside.

Can Can was dressed like a little bear, wrapped up from head to toe, with only his pair of round, dark eyes showing. He was bending over and playing in the snow with Gu Xingyuan.

Wen Shuqiao and Shen Jiazhou looked over and saw that Cancan had just thrown a snowball that hit Gu Xingyuan in the face, and Gu Xingyuan fell to the ground in the snow as if he had been knocked out.

Even through the glass, you could feel Cancan's joy. She ran quickly to Gu Xingyuan's side and threw him another snowball.

They really don't let anything slip by.

Yu Mingxue said, "They want to see Cancan, after all, they watched Shen Jiachen grow up."

Shen Jiazhou was speechless.

Wen Shuqiao replied, "Okay, we understand."

Yu Mingxue glanced at Wen Shuqiao, then placed her teacup on the coffee table and asked, "Shuqiao, besides playing, do you have any other plans for the rest of the time?"

Wen Shuqiao shook her head: "I just came out for a stroll, and I'll fly back on the sixth day of the new year."

We need to rest on the seventh and eighth days of the Lunar New Year. After all, it takes more than ten hours to fly from City A to Country M, and then another hour to get here by car after getting off the plane.

Wen Shu-chiao had never been abroad before, but actually going on such a trip was quite tiring.

Yu Mingxue responded with an "oh," and Wen Shuqiao asked, "Do you have any plans?"

It seems like Yu Mingxue is hesitant to speak.

Yu Mingxue glanced at Shen Jiazhou and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask, Shen Er, are you going to see Aunt Zhou?"

Aunt Zhou?

Seeing Wen Shuqiao's somewhat puzzled expression, Yu Mingxue explained, "His mother."

Are Shen Jiazhou and Shen Jiachen's mother here too?

Wen Shuqiao blinked. She had never heard Shen Jiazhou mention his mother, nor was she mentioned in the novel.

Shen Jiazhou hummed in agreement: "I'll go see it, what's up?"

Actually, the reason for this trip was to take Can Can to meet her maternal grandmother's family.

Yu Mingxue said, "It's nothing, I was just asking. I heard from my dad a while ago that your grandmother is not in good health. She should be very happy that you've come."

Both the Yu and Zhou families do business in the United States, and they also had a long-standing friendship back in China, so they have maintained regular contact.

Wen Shuqiao picked up her hot tea and took another sip. Seeing this, Shen Jiazhou turned his head and whispered to her, "I'll tell you later."

Yu Mingxue took in all of this and couldn't help but click her tongue several times in her mind.

Gu Xingyuan had told her before that Shen Jiazhou was now even more of a peacock than a flower peacock, but she didn't believe it.

Now it seems there's no way to deny it.

I don't know how many times I secretly watched Wen Shuqiao's videos throughout the night.

Yu Mingxue's gaze then fell upon Wen Shuqiao, who was drinking tea, and a hint of teasing smile appeared in her eyes.

Wen Shuqiao looked puzzled and raised an eyebrow, as if asking her what she was laughing at.

Yu Mingxue, however, seemed to be enjoying the show, shrugged, and lowered her eyes to drink her tea.

It seems that Shen Er is still a coward.

After a long day of travel, crossing from one day into another, and chatting for a while, Wen Shuqiao felt a little tired.

Yu Mingxue said, "Go and rest. I'll take care of everything for Cancan."

She glanced at the yard again. Can Can and Gu Xingyuan had already built a snowman and probably wouldn't be able to sleep for a while.

Wen Shuqiao nodded and said, "Thank you for your help."

She got up and prepared to go upstairs to her room.

Shen Jiazhou also stood up from the sofa and said, "I'll go upstairs to rest too."

Yu Mingxue clicked her tongue, and just as she was about to say something, she saw Shen Jiazhou turn his head expressionlessly and make a gesture to shut her up.

Don't assume he doesn't know what she's trying to say.

Yu Mingxue rolled her eyes. She dares to be clingy but doesn't dare to let others say so, right? I don't understand why she's so conflicted.

Wen Shuqiao clearly didn't seem to have any interest in him.
