After changing their clothes, they wandered around the club for a bit and finally found some strawberry milk to drink. Looking at the time, they figured it was about time to find a restaurant for dinner.
Gu Xingyuan suggested eating at his restaurant, saying it wouldn't take long to drive there and that his own restaurant was more comfortable.
Wen Shuqiao had no objections, since eating was the same no matter where they ate. Shen Jiazhou didn't refuse either, and it would be convenient to send Wen Shuqiao and the others back after the meal.
At the entrance of a "delicious restaurant".
Can Can was being held by Gu Xingyuan. He said, "Uncle Xingyuan, I had dinner here yesterday for my birthday."
Gu Xingyuan asked, "Uncle knows what Xiaobao likes to eat the most. Uncle will ask them to make it for Xiaobao."
He carried Can Can to order food, and Shen Jiazhou and Wen Shuqiao went upstairs to the same private room as yesterday. When they went in again, it had been restored to its original state.
The private room was very warm, and Wen Shuqiao looked at her wrist but still didn't take off her coat.
Shen Jiazhou draped his suit jacket over the floor-standing clothes rack. Today, he wore a thin vest in the same color underneath, which was just right for the private room.
Wen Shuqiao glanced at it, then looked away, took out her phone to jot down some inspiration so that she could write the update much faster when she got back.
But as soon as I opened the memo, I noticed someone had sat down next to me.
She turned her head and saw Shen Jiazhou.
He was looking at her, as if he had something to say.
Wen Shuqiao turned off her phone and set it aside: "What's wrong?"
Shen Jiazhou said, "You won the bet. What do you want?"
Wen Shuqiao remembered and said, "There's nothing I want, let's forget about it."
After all, it was just a casual bet, and she had forgotten about it if Shen Jiazhou hadn't brought it up.
Shen Jiazhou replied, "A loss is a loss; there's no reason to let it go."
"But I really don't have any ideas right now." Wen Shuqiao looked at Shen Jiazhou and felt that this matter wouldn't be resolved unless she spoke up.
The winners all say let it go, so why are the losers still insisting?
She asked, "Can I save them up first?"
Shen Jiazhou reluctantly hummed in agreement: "Permission granted."
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "Okay, I'll tell you when I think of something. Don't worry, I won't ask you to do anything out of line."
These bets were all trivial matters; Shen Jiazhou's wish was for Cancan to come back with him and stay for one night.
Actually, it's not impossible. When he comes back from his business trip, the uncle and nephew won't see each other for a long time, and Can Can will probably agree.
However, she didn't plan to tell Shen Jiazhou this, in case Can Can became unhappy again, and her wish would be in vain.
She was preoccupied with how to persuade Cancan, completely unaware that Shen Jiazhou was still watching her.
When she came to her senses, she tilted her head in confusion: "Is there anything else?"
Staring at her like that is kind of scary.
Shen Jiazhou lowered his eyes, but after a few seconds, he raised them again and asked bluntly, "The reason you didn't tell me this afternoon was because Shen Jiachen's matter was involved?"
Wen Shuqiao subconsciously exclaimed "Ah!" and was stunned for a moment. How could Shen Jiazhou suddenly be so perceptive?
Shen Jiazhou, observing her reaction, said, "As expected."
Wen Shuqiao simply smiled slightly and did not reply immediately.
Shen Jiazhou didn't actually realize it at first, but just now his mind suddenly connected Gu Xingyuan's words in the locker room.
He and Wen Shuqiao were quite familiar with each other, but she had never asked about the Shen family and Shen Jiachen before. All the information she had was brought up by him.
Wen Shuqiao is very tactful. She knows what she should and shouldn't ask, and her actions and words are always appropriate to avoid making others uncomfortable.
But why are you suddenly asking about Gu Xingyuan?
He could understand if she didn't ask him; after all, she had seen her somewhat... disheveled side last night, and she was probably afraid of touching a sore spot for him.
Today's conversation with Su Sisi must have involved Shen Jiachen, so Wen Shuqiao didn't mention a word about him.
He only realized now that Wen Shuqiao was probably trying to take care of his feelings.
Shen Jiazhou leaned back in his chair and said, "Wen Shuqiao, sometimes you don't need to pay too much attention to my emotions."
He had said something similar in the car, and I didn't expect him to say it again.
Wen Shuqiao sighed softly: "I admit that taking care of your feelings is one aspect, but another aspect is that I really haven't figured it out."
Shen Jiazhou crossed his arms, his arm muscles bulging, smoothing out his shirt. He said, "Tell me about it."
Wen Shuqiao knew that Shen Jiazhou was determined to find out, so she stopped hiding it and asked, "When did you find out about Cancan's existence?"
Shen Jiazhou said, "The end of September, on the anniversary of his death."
Wen Shuqiao looked at him, and Shen Jiazhou said, "After his accident, some of his belongings were in a house under my name. I went back to check on it that day and found his cell phone."
The phone was retrieved from the scene, but it was already broken and couldn't be turned on. Shen Jiazhou was in a huge shock at the time and didn't even think about turning on Shen Jiachen's phone. He even sealed it away along with his few remaining belongings.
But for some reason, after returning from the cemetery that day, he felt uneasy and had a very strong sense of urgency.
After returning home, I inexplicably went to look at Shen Jiachen's belongings and saw the broken cell phone.
He always felt that there was something on his phone that wanted to tell him something.
So Shen Jiazhou found someone to repair the phone. The phone was indeed broken, but fortunately, after some repairs, it could still be turned on.
Shen Jiachen's password was easy to guess; he unlocked the phone with almost no effort.
Two years later, we finally learned Shen Jiachen's secret: he was already married, and not only that, he even had a son who was almost one year old.
Even on the day he died, he booked a flight to the United States, ready to start a new life with his wife and son.
Shen Jiazhou spoke calmly about these things, but Wen Shuqiao could hear the deep pain hidden in his words.
He said, "They had already arrived at the airport, but because of a phone call, he came back and then got into a car accident."
Wen Shuqiao opened her mouth. So, it turns out that Can Can can have a perfect life?
