Shen Jiazhou carried him for a while. When Can Can saw that the other children were walking on their own, he was a little shy and struggled to get down and walk by himself.

He's a proper four-year-old now! He can't be carried around by his aunt and uncle like before!

The system chuckled twice: [You even have some insights to share on your birthday?]

Can Can, holding her aunt and uncle's hands, walked happily forward. Hearing the system's words, she exclaimed excitedly, "[Happy~ System, aren't you happy?]"

The system snorted. It was just an ordinary birthday celebration. What was there to be happy about?

If we went back to the Shen family, the red envelopes we received and the gifts we had to open all day would make our hands ache!

I was much happier back then than I am now!

CanCan replied seriously, "Would that make me happy?"

The system had almost forgotten that this kid could hear everything it said, so it replied: "Of course I'm happy."

"Hmph, you're lying to me." Cancan said, "I'm not happy."

"Does being happy really matter that much?" the system asked, puzzled. "Shouldn't money and status be the most important things?"

Can Can secretly pouted; he didn't like hearing the system's words.

However, considering it was his birthday, he still replied to the system: "Being happy is very important. My aunt said that children should grow up happily."

The system fell silent. CanCan asked, "System, when is your birthday? I'll celebrate with your aunt, milk, and cake, okay?"

The system remained silent for an unknown period, so long that CanCan thought it had secretly gone offline again, before it whispered: "...Today."

"Today is today!" Can Can exclaimed in surprise. "We share the same birthday! Happy birthday, System Brother!"

[...] The system code fluctuated slightly: [Happy birthday to you too, Shen Shiyue.]

【Thank you, brother! I like you~(＾Ｕ＾)ノ~ＹＯ】Cancan happily shook her head.

Wen Shuqiao looked down and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so happy?"

"because……"

Before Can Can could speak, the system warned even faster: [Don't speak!]

Can Can almost forgot this secret. He looked up at his aunt and said, "Because it's my birthday, I'm happy!"

Shen Jiazhou squeezed his little hand and thought to himself, "What a sweet little thing."

Can Can was originally going to see her uncle, but her eyes fell on a group of horses of different colors and shapes spinning around in the distance, going up and down as if they were really moving.

Shen Jiazhou naturally noticed his gaze and said to Wen Shuqiao, "Let's go, he wants to ride the carousel."

Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Let's go."

The two of them led Can Can toward the carousel, just as the round was about to end, and they could get on.

Wen Shuqiao asked, "Are you taking him up?"

Children need to be accompanied by an adult when they go out for a walk.

Before Shen Jiazhou could say anything, Cancan said, "Okay, okay, Auntie~ you have to take pictures of the baby!"

When we get home, we can look at the photos and reminisce!

The system replied: "[Useless! If you like it, just tell your uncle. He can decorate your villa's yard.]"

"It's different~" CanCan said, "I just like playing outside."

【Yo, yo yo yo, yo yo yo yo yo.】The system then adopted a crooked mouth: 【Whose little silly pig was hiding behind its aunt and refusing to come out? Whose little silly pig was so timid?】

"You jerk!" Can Can said angrily. Even though it was his and the system's birthday today, he didn't want to be friends with the system anymore! He would never be friends with the system that called him "Baby Little Silly Pig" again!

Unless it praises the baby ten times!

System: ...I can hear you.

Just as he was sulking with the system, Shen Jiazhou discussed with Wen Shuqiao, "Do you want to play?"

Wen Shuqiao shook her head: "I can't play, I'll get dizzy if I spin around for too long."

She looked at Shen Jiazhou and asked, "Do you get dizzy too?"

It's not so much about whether you get dizzy or not, but mainly because I didn't see a single person dressed in formal attire accompanying their child on the carousel.

While Shen Jiazhou was still hesitating, Wen Shuqiao said, "Then I'll have a staff member take him up. We can cheer him on from below, and he'll be happy too."

Can Can has become much bolder lately.

He snapped out of his daze and took Can Can's other hand: "I'll take him up."

Wen Shuqiao asked, "Are you really alright?"

Wen Shuqiao really can't ride this. In her past life, her roommate invited her to an amusement park once. She was fine with everything else, but she just couldn't handle the spinning rides. That day, her roommate said they would go back to school after riding the carousel. After riding the carousel, she almost knelt down and it took her a long time to recover.

Having transmigrated to this world, Wen Shuqiao didn't know if she would get dizzy, but she still didn't want to take the risk. She still remembered that uncomfortable feeling.

Shen Jiazhou hummed in agreement: "It's nothing."

It's just a Trojan horse; if he likes it, installing one at home wouldn't be a problem.

Wen Shuqiao was relieved. Compared to leaving it with the staff, it was definitely more reassuring to have her own family members take care of it.

She stepped aside and watched them enter the venue with the other parents. Can Can chose a big white horse, and after he was lifted onto it, he happily waved to Wen Shu Qiao.

Shen Jiazhou sat behind him, his well-defined knuckles gripping the long pole, while his other hand wrapped around his waist: "Sit still, don't move around."

Can Can nodded, then raised her hands above her head and made a heart shape with her hands.

Shen Jiazhou looked up in the direction he was looking, and Wen Shuqiao was holding up her phone, clearly taking a picture.

In the few days since they added each other on WeChat, Wen Shuqiao has been sending Can Can some photos to him, or posting some photos of Can Can on her WeChat Moments. Every single one of them is very well taken, showing how cute and handsome he is.
