Shen Jiazhou carefully helped her lean against the car seat, got out of the car first, and then carried Wen Shuqiao out of the car.

Can Can stood beside him with her head tilted back. After Shen Jiazhou carried Wen Shuqiao out of the car, she lowered her head and said, "Close the car door."

Can Can obediently closed the car door, and the driver drove away.

Perhaps the noise was too loud, because Wen Shuqiao was woken up.

She opened her eyes and saw the basement lights: "Hmm? Have we arrived?"

After taking a nap, Wen Shuqiao felt much better than before.

Shen Jiazhou looked down at her and said gently, "We're not home yet."

Wen Shuqiao realized that she was being held by Shen Jiazhou and felt a little embarrassed: "I, I can walk by myself, you can put me down."

Shen Jiazhou said, "You can't walk steadily. If I put you down later, you'll be walking unsteadily, and I'll have to support you."

Wen Shuqiao rarely experienced being carried in a princess carry, so she was still a little uncomfortable, but Shen Jiazhou had already carried her quickly to the elevator.

Once they reached the elevator, Shen Jiazhou did as she wished and placed her on the ground. However, he still held her arm tightly and said with concern, "Why did you drink so much today? You usually only have a couple of drinks at home."

Wen Shuqiao's head was still a little dizzy. Can Can was holding her hand and looking up at her with pleading eyes: "Auntie, please don't get drunk anymore, okay?"

Wen Shuqiao squeezed his palm: "Okay, this time it was an accident."

Can Can pouted and hugged her waist again, burying her face in her side, looking like she had been greatly wronged.

Wen Shuqiao groaned, enduring her discomfort, and patted the back of his head: "I'm sorry, baby, I really won't do it again next time."

Can Can mumbled a soft "Mmm," and said, "You promised me, right?"

Shen Jiazhou raised an eyebrow. He loosened his grip on Wen Shuqiao's arm and hooked his fingers around hers as he looked down. He said in a low voice, "Why did you only answer Xiaobao and not me? You said you didn't bully me, but you're ignoring me now."

Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but turn her head to look at him. She didn't know if it was because of the alcohol, but her head was spinning. She felt that Shen Jiazhou looked very strange right now, especially like a seductive fox in a TV series.

She parted her red lips slightly and gave a long "hmm," just then the elevator arrived.

Wen Shuqiao looked at the elevator that opened to both sides, and Can Can took her hand: "Let's go, Auntie!"

I was interrupted again.

Wen Shuqiao nodded and walked towards the elevator with Can Can, but she didn't forget to tighten her grip on Shen Jiazhou's finger and lead him into the elevator together.

Shen Jiazhou lagged behind them by a step. His gaze fell on their intertwined fingers, this time with Wen Shuqiao holding him tightly.

And in the car, she murmured unconsciously.

He said he needed to think about it carefully, but Shen Jiazhou thought to himself, she clearly likes him to no end.

Once home, Wen Shuqiao sat directly on the sofa.

She hadn't expected the three drinks she had that night to have such a strong aftereffect; the feeling of being somewhere between sober and not sober was extremely unpleasant.

I won't drink too much next time; even if it tastes good, I need to control the amount.

Shen Jiazhou made her a glass of honey water from the kitchen and handed it to her by the sofa.

Wen Shuqiao thanked him and took a sip of the honey water.

Can Can also came running over in her slippers, and as soon as she got on the sofa, she buried her face tightly in Wen Shuqiao's shoulder.

Wen Shuqiao's hand wobbled as she tried to hold the honey water in her other hand, but her hand was empty.

Shen Jiazhou had already handed her the honey water.

She glanced at Shen Jiazhou, who sat slightly to the side, saying nothing, but his eyes remained fixed on her.

Wen Shuqiao's temples began to throb.

But she could only comfort the little one in her arms first, saying, "Are you sleepy? Why don't you go to sleep first?"

Can Can refused, saying, "I'll fall asleep later, and then my uncle can carry me inside, okay? I want to hug your aunt."

Wen Shuqiao sighed, "Auntie is really fine. If you don't believe me, touch it. Auntie's face isn't hot anymore."

Can Can obediently touched his aunt's face. It wasn't very hot anymore, but it was still a little bit hot. He just wanted to hug his aunt.

Helpless, Wen Shuqiao simply picked up Cancan and said, "How about your aunt carries you back to sleep? Be a good girl."

Can Can clung to Wen Shu Qiao like a little sloth. Wen Shu Qiao was completely sober and was afraid of dropping Can Can.

Shen Jiazhou placed the honey water on the coffee table and stood up, saying, "Let me hold him."

Can Can refused to get off Wen Shu Qiao.

Wen Shuqiao said, "I carried him in; I guess he was frightened."

Seeing this, Shen Jiazhou stopped talking and silently followed behind her to prevent her from accidentally falling while holding Can Can.

However, Wen Shuqiao was much more awake now, and she carried Can Can very steadily, carrying her all the way back to the children's room without even breaking a sweat, and put her on the bed.

She patted Cancan on the back: "Okay, it's time to sleep. No more whining."

"I'm not being unreasonable." Can Can let go of Wen Shu Qiao and asked, "Auntie, can you sleep here with me tonight?"

They were originally going to move back to Emerald Courtyard, but after talking to Shen Jiazhou, Shen Jiazhou said something to Can Can, and Can Can insisted on staying here and refused to leave, so they stayed here again.

Wen Shuqiao pinched his cheek: "Auntie will sleep upstairs later. You go to sleep obediently, and Auntie will cook you some delicious sweet fermented rice balls tomorrow, okay?"
