Chapter 518 Extra (12)

For the rest of the journey, the three people in the car didn't speak.

Wen Shuqiao also went from being nervous and alert at the beginning, to slowly relaxing when he saw the familiar road.

Assistant Lin asked, "Schoolmate, is this the place?"

Wen Shuqiao said softly: "It's this, you..."

Before she finished speaking, Assistant Lin asked again: "Which building?"

"It's at the intersection ahead." Shen Jiazhou suddenly said, "Get off the bus."

Wen Shuqiao was just worrying about how to politely refuse the offer of sending it downstairs. When he heard what Shen Jiazhou said, he nodded quickly: "Okay, thank you Mr. Shen, thank you senior, thank you for troubling you tonight."

Wen Shuqiao was really flattered that he had gone through such a long process just to send her back, but he was also extremely alert and nervous.

Assistant Lin wanted to say something, but since Shen Jiazhou had already spoken, he didn't know what to say. He drove the car to the intersection and stepped on the brakes.

Wen Shuqiao thanked him again, but Shen Jiazhou just said "Hmm" expressionlessly as usual: "Get out of the car."

Wen Shuqiao grabbed her bag and got out of the car. When she closed the door, she thanked him again: "Thank you, Mr. Shen, thank you, senior. Senior, please drive slowly. See you tomorrow. Bye."

Assistant Lin waved his hand and said, "Go back and be careful. Bye, junior."

Wen Shuqiao closed the car door. As she did so, she saw Shen Jiazhou looking at her, and he looked a little... aggrieved?

Wen Shuqiao quickly threw away this terrible idea. She had eaten too much delicious food today and began to feel confused. She even dared to think about her boss.

Shen Jiazhou saw her walk into the intersection, and the not-so-sensitive voice-activated lights lit up little by little. He resisted the urge to get out of the car and said, "Let's go."

Assistant Lin nodded and started the car to go back, but after driving for a while he couldn't help but ask, "Boss Shen, you've already dropped her off at the intersection, why don't you just drop her off downstairs?"

It would probably only take a few dozen seconds to drive around. He and Shen Jiazhou had already driven such a long distance, so a few dozen seconds wouldn't matter.

Shen Jiazhou's tone remained flat as he said, "What's the big deal about two grown men blocking a girl downstairs?"

In fact, he had been paying attention to Wen Shuqiao's movements. She was quite tense along the way and didn't talk much.

And probably he was afraid of offending his two superiors, so he was hesitant to speak from the moment he turned in, as if he was thinking about how to "get off the car" with high EQ.

Shen Jiazhou closed his eyes. He had not been close to Wen Shuqiao all day today. They had only met a few times, and her past had gone from being narrated to being facts before his eyes.

At that time, Wen Shuqiao said lightly that life was pretty good.

How is it good? She is so thin that she looks like skin and bones. The slightest disturbance will make her alarm bells go off.

I don't know how much suffering I went through to learn those self-protection methods.

Shen Jiazhou pursed his lips into a straight line. In his eyes, Wen Shuqiao was the person who would accompany him for the rest of his life.

But in Wen Shuqiao's eyes now, he is just a stranger, at best a superior, who is only slightly more familiar than a stranger.

Shen Jiazhou took a deep breath and looked out the window. He didn't even know what he could change.

Assistant Lin sent him home.

After taking a shower, Shen Jiazhou did nothing but lie on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

The night was quiet. Shen Jiazhou hugged the pillow, burying his face tightly in it, just like he usually hugged Wen Shuqiao.

He thought about many things, but in the end it all came down to one thing.

He wants to go back.

Go back to the world where Wen Shuqiao and Cancan exist.

*

"Uncle!"

"Uncle!"

"Wake up! Uncle!"

A familiar loud voice exploded beside his ears. Shen Jiazhou opened his eyes in a daze and found Cancan looking at him with contempt. He hugged Cancan tightly and buried his face in Cancan's thin shoulders.

"Baby?" Shen Jiazhou obviously hadn't reacted yet.

Cancan blinked: "It's me, uncle! Aunt asked me to wake you up. I'm hungry and I want to have breakfast!"

Auntie...Wen Shuqiao! Wife!

Shen Jiazhou woke up instantly and sat up holding Cancan.

Cancan screamed in fright. Wen Shuqiao, who heard the noise, hurried over from the living room. She walked to the door and looked at the uncle and nephew. She sighed and said helplessly, "You two are fighting so early in the morning? Get up quickly. After breakfast, you should check out."

After that, she went to pack her things again. Shen Jiazhou looked down at Cancan, who also looked at him with innocent eyes: "Uncle?"

Shen Jiazhou closed his eyes, calmed himself down, lowered his head and kissed Cancan's forehead: "Get up."

Cancan was confused by the kiss, and he said, "Uncle, you have to wash up before you kiss me! I am a clean child!"

Shen Jiazhou pinched his face: "We've already kissed, what else can I do? Kiss him again?"

Cancan immediately slid away like a little loach. He covered his face, leaving only two round eyes exposed: "You have to brush your teeth, wash your face, and apply perfume before you can kiss me!"

"... You're so picky." Shen Jiazhou threw off the quilt and got out of bed, but he hurried to wash up first. When he came out, Wen Shuqiao had also packed his luggage. She turned around and was about to say something when she saw Shen Jiazhou rushing towards her with a wronged look on his face.

Wen Shuqiao was puzzled, and before she could open her mouth, Shen Jiazhou hugged her tightly. He buried his face in her neck skillfully, rubbed it twice, and said nothing.

Wen Shuqiao hugged him with one hand, raised his other hand and pinched the back of his neck, and asked in a gentle voice: "What's wrong? You look so aggrieved."

Shen Jiazhou said nothing, but just hugged her tighter.

Cancan also came over and looked up, also looking at his aunt in confusion.

His aunt gestured to him to change his clothes, so Cancan had no choice but to go back to the bedroom and change his clothes.

Wen Shuqiao pinched Shen Jiazhou's neck again: "Didn't you get enough sleep?"

She woke up at eight o'clock. At that time, neither of them woke up, so she got up and tidied herself up. Not long after, Cancan also woke up.

After the two of them washed up, they went to see Shen Jiazhou, who was still sleeping soundly.

Wen Shuqiao originally wanted to take Cancan to have breakfast by himself, but Cancan still wanted to wake up Shen Jiazhou.

"...No." Shen Jiazhou said in a muffled voice.

"What's wrong?" Wen Shuqiao asked, "Weren't you full of energy yesterday?"

Shen Jiazhou sniffed Wen Shuqiao's scent. He always felt that Wen Shuqiao had a peculiar fragrance on him. He especially liked to hold him and inhale it. He liked it very much.

"I dreamed of you." Shen Jiazhou said, "But I also felt that it was not a dream."

Wen Shuqiao hummed: "Didn't you say you would dream about me last night? Now that I did, you didn't seem too happy."

"I saw you in another time and space." Shen Jiazhou said: "I became your boss and you are my intern."

He recounted his dream in a rambling manner, and finally said with a bit of realization: "I wanted to come back all the time, but now that I'm back, I feel a little reluctant to leave."

Wen Shuqiao's thoughts were also carried away by him. Hearing his soft words, he asked, "What are you reluctant to give up?"

"I can't bear to see you suffer, but I can't do anything about it." Shen Jiazhou said, "I don't know what kind of butterfly effect will occur after I intervene, so I dare not do anything."

It is not easy for Wen Shuqiao to become such an outstanding person. He does not want to cause trouble for Wen Shuqiao. Not changing is also a change.
