Shen Jiazhou pushed the computer in front of her again: "I'll take care of the basics for you, you can do the rest yourself."
He thought for a moment longer: "If I don't like this color, I can change it."
Wen Shuqiao then came to her senses. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Shen Jiazhou say, "Consider it... a return gift."
He spoke softly of the words "reciprocity," but Wen Shuqiao still heard them clearly.
She asked, puzzled, "Did I give you anything?"
How come she doesn't remember?
Shen Jiazhou merely raised his left eyebrow slightly: "Didn't you give me your bet?"
Wen Shuqiao suddenly remembered: "What's the big deal? It was just one sentence."
“A word is worth a thousand pieces of gold.” Shen Jiazhou leaned back in his chair, still smiling. “It’s worth much more than a computer.”
Wen Shuqiao lowered her eyes to the computer screen. Since Shen Jiazhou had already sent someone to bring it over, he was determined to give it to her.
She thought for a moment and said, "I'll just shamelessly accept it."
Although he said that, he was already thinking about what excuse to return the gift.
Wen Shuqiao doesn't really like owing favors to others.
Shen Jiazhou, however, seemed to know her inside and out: "Don't think about giving me anything back. You won this computer, so thank yourself for being so smart."
Next time I'll definitely make it silent!
Wen Shuqiao looked up at him, and finally smiled: "Okay, boss is generous."
Shen Jiazhou's lips curled slightly: "Not bad, not bad."
Wen Shuqiao turned off her phone, placed the keyboard on the other side, moved the computer in front of her, and slid her fingertips across the touchscreen.
Shen Jiazhou was still looking at her. When he was choosing earlier, he immediately took a liking to this color. It was simple yet had a high-quality feel, and it suited Wen Shuqiao perfectly.
Wen Shuqiao tried it out and found it very smooth. She had to admit that having a computer to work with was indeed more convenient.
She looked up, wanting to say thank you again, but unexpectedly met Shen Jiazhou's gaze, which was fixed on her.
"...Hmm?" Wen Shuqiao tilted her head slightly: "Is there something on my face?"
Shen Jiazhou looked away at first, but quickly looked back at her and said, "No, I was just waiting to hear if it works well. If it doesn't, I'll get you a replacement."
"It works great, I really like it, thank you!" Wen Shuqiao said, "Thank you so much."
Shen Jiazhou's lips curled up slightly: "It's just a matter of moving a finger."
The doorbell rang again, and Wen Shuqiao said, "I'll go answer it."
She walked over and looked through the peephole in the door. This time, it was indeed Can Can who had returned.
Wen Shuqiao opened the door, and Cancan slipped in, hugging her waist: "Auntie, Auntie, have you missed me?"
Although horseback riding was fun, he still missed his aunt!
Wen Shuqiao lowered her head and patted his head: "I've thought about it, Uncle is in there too."
Then he asked, "Why did you change your clothes?"
Gu Xingyuan explained, "He was sweating, and I was afraid he would catch a cold, so I changed his clothes."
Can Can let go of Wen Shu Qiao, took a step back, and spun around in front of Wen Shu Qiao: "Auntie, is the baby pretty?"
The system snorted: [You cocky brat.]
Gu Xingyuan changed him into a suit, which fit him perfectly and made him look exceptionally cute and delicate.
She smiled and said, "It looks good."
Can Can touched his hair, mimicking what he'd overheard from Gu Xingyuan, and narrowed his eyes. He raised his head proudly and said, "Auntie, you also pecked rice for me, didn't you!"
Gu Xingyuan: ...
system:【……】
Wen Shuqiao: ...?
Gu Xingyuan quickly covered his mouth: "My little treasure, where did you learn that!"
Cancan pulled down Gu Xingyuan's hand: "Uncle Xingyuan, did you learn that from your phone?"
That's what Uncle Xingyuan said on his phone while we were in the car!
Pecking at the rice!
"It's fascination." The system said: "A young age, a master of misheard lyrics!"
Can Can asked in confusion, "I have ears."
This time, the system simply ignored him.
Hearing the noise at the door, Shen Jiazhou followed. He looked at Can Can in her little suit and thought, "She really does have the air of an elite little Bao."
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Can Can walk up to him with a happy expression, raise a hand to stroke the side of her hair, and say smugly, "Uncle, you can peck rice for me too!"
"...Why would I peck at your rice?" Shen Jiazhou asked in confusion. "You're pecking at a bowl of rice I've given you, aren't you?"
Can Can scoffed, "Idiot! You don't even understand this! I don't want to talk to my idiot uncle!"
He tossed his head and went to find milk and cake.
Shen Jiazhou ran his tongue across his teeth and looked at Gu Xingyuan outside the door: "I only asked you to take care of the child for an afternoon, how did you learn this bad habit?"
That's so annoying!
"You..." Gu Xingyuan glanced at Wen Shuqiao, then forcefully suppressed his own sweet talk, and asked rather unhappily, "Are you leaving or not?"
Shen Jiazhou slowly changed his shoes: "Hmm."
He then turned to Wen Shuqiao and said, "I'm leaving now. Contact me if anything comes up."
Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Drive carefully."
Then she turned her head and said, "Can Can, Uncle and Uncle Xingyuan are leaving."
Can Can came out again, shuffling around in her cartoon slippers: "Uncle! Uncle Xingyuan! Bye-bye!"
Gu Xingyuan waved slightly and said, "Next time you see Xiaobao, remember to call me if you miss me."
Can Can nodded: "Okay!"
Shen Jiazhou turned around, and Cancan quickly said, "Uncle, I'll miss you too!"
