Can Can took the milk and cake back to his room. He hadn't even finished playing with all the toys Shen Jia Zhou had set up in his room!
After Can Can left, Shen Jia Zhou looked at Wen Shu Qiao and asked, "Why are you so sullen when you come back?"
Wen Shuqiao was drinking hot water when she heard this and looked up at him: "What?"
Shen Jiazhou said, "You look sullen, did something happen?"
She looked at herself in the mirror when she was in the elevator, and she looked exactly the same as usual. How did Shen Jiazhou know that she was not in good condition?
However, she replied, "No, I'm just a little tired."
Shen Jiazhou nodded slightly: "No need to rush, just settle in here."
Wen Shuqiao smiled slightly at him and said, "Okay."
She didn't want to continue the conversation and asked, "How's it going on your end today?"
Shen Jiazhou could tell she was trying to change the subject, but he didn't call her out on it. He simply said, "Everyone who was supposed to come has come. The equity transfer has also been handled by the lawyers. It should all be completed by the New Year at the earliest."
"Before the Lunar New Year?" Wen Shuqiao silently checked the calendar on her phone. This year's Lunar New Year is very early, less than two months away.
Shen Jiazhou said, "Yes, if it weren't for so many procedures, we might have been able to finish everything by the end of the month."
Wen Shuqiao nodded and said, "Okay."
Shen Jiazhou said, "By the way, Xiao Miao is leaving at the end of the month."
"Resigned?" Wen Shuqiao asked in confusion, "Why would you resign for no reason?"
“Not only Xiao Miao, but Lin Yan will also be leaving before the New Year.” Shen Jiazhou smiled. “They’re going to a new company.”
Wen Shuqiao looked at his smile and realized what he meant: "Yours?"
“Yes,” Shen Jiazhou said. “I have my own company and do some business. Although it’s not as big as Shen’s, it’s enough to support people.”
Wen Shuqiao thought for a moment and realized that Shen Jiazhou was so intelligent that he would not sit idly by and wait for his doom. His plans and goals were very clear.
"What? Not saying anything again?" Shen Jiazhou thought to himself. He hadn't said anything, had he? He shouldn't have offended her, right?
Wen Shuqiao snapped out of her reverie: "By the way, I won't be going to the company starting tomorrow. I've already coordinated with the administrator about the relevant matters."
This time, Shen Jiazhou was caught off guard, and Wen Shuqiao continued, "The administrator will handle it for me."
Shen Jiazhou frowned: "You mean, you terminated your contract?"
Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Yes, the contract has been terminated."
She asked at the cafeteria window and learned that the cafeteria window was managed separately and there was no need to sign a lease contract on the sixteenth floor; terminating the contract would be the same.
Shen Jiazhou leaned back on the sofa and looked at her. He said, "Actually, my affairs don't interfere with your work."
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "I know, I made this decision after careful consideration, it has nothing to do with you."
Shen Jiazhou pursed his lips, thought about it carefully, and quickly convinced himself: "Okay, I still have some shops. I'll take you to see them next weekend. Whichever one you like, I'll rent it to you at the same price."
Wen Shuqiao put down her water glass and quickly said, "Actually, when I first started setting up a stall, I just wanted to find a part-time job to tide me over."
It was somewhat by chance that it became her main profession.
Shen Jiazhou remained silent for a while before asking, "So what do you plan to do next?"
Wen Shuqiao shrugged: "We'll see."
Shen Jiazhou understood; this was because he hadn't thought things through.
He nodded and said, "Okay, let me know if you need anything. I don't have any great skills, but I do have some connections."
Wen Shuqiao was amused by this statement. What did he mean by not having much ability? What did he mean by having some connections?
Shen Jiazhou looked at her inexplicable laughter and said decisively, "You're mocking me."
Wen Shuqiao laughed even harder: "Alright, President Shen, it's fine to say this at home."
If I told anyone, wouldn't I be able to stare Shen Jiazhou through the roof? That's too much like Versailles!
Shen Jiazhou mimicked Can Can's pout, always leaving half a sentence unsaid. How could he possibly guess what she meant?
"Auntie! Auntie!"
Can Can started shouting in the children's room. Wen Shu Qiao turned her head and glanced at her before getting up and walking towards the children's room. Shen Jia Zhou thought for a moment and then got up and followed her to the children's room.
As soon as Wen Shuqiao reached the door, he saw Can Can standing with her hands on her hips, looking angrily at the milk and cake in front of her.
The two little guys sat side by side, looking up at him and wagging their tails.
"What's going on here?" Wen Shuqiao walked in, and the room looked like it was about to erupt into battle.
Can Can said, "The milk and cake messed up the puzzle I just finished."
I'm angry! You naughty kitten! You naughty puppy!
Wen Shuqiao then noticed the jigsaw puzzle pieces scattered on the floor. She remembered that Cancan had started putting the puzzle together since she moved in yesterday, and it was almost finished, but she never expected that she would be back to square one.
Can Can walked to his aunt's side with a wronged expression, buried his face in her stomach, and said, "I worked so hard!"
Wen Shuqiao patted the back of his head: "Can I help you put it back together tonight?"
Can Can tilted her head back, pouting, "Then, after we finish piecing it together tonight..."
Before he could finish speaking, Shen Jiazhou came over and said, "Don't worry, we'll definitely help you put it back together before you go to sleep. We'll go back to our own rooms only after it's all put together."
Can Can hid her face again, not wanting her uncle to see it.
Shen Jiazhou crossed his arms: "Lift your face up, why are you always acting cute?"
"Yes!" the system popped up: "[One day, one day, one day, one day—]"
Can Can asked in confusion, "System, why are you repeating yourself?"
The system paused for a moment: [Just now, just now, was there anything just now?]
Perhaps because it was the first time the system had malfunctioned, Can Can's attention immediately went to the system: "[Yeah, you're lagging now too!]"
system:【……】
The system paused for a long time before saying, "Oh, I should rest now. You should listen to your aunt and uncle."
Can Can wanted to say something more, but the system had already left in a hurry.
How strange? Didn't the system brother just rest for a short while?
Due to a minor glitch in the system, Can Can was completely stunned and clung to Wen Shu Qiao, refusing to let go.
Shen Jiazhou waited for a while, then raised an eyebrow and exchanged a glance with Wen Shuqiao.
Well, you little rascal, now you dare to ignore what your uncle says!
He stepped forward, bent down, and manually pulled Cancan out of Wen Shuqiao's arms. Cancan turned her head in confusion and asked, "Uncle, what are you doing?"
Shen Jiazhou placed his hand under his armpit and gently lifted him up.
Can Can lowered her head and swung her legs, then raised her head and asked, "Uncle, why are you lifting me?"
He swung his leg a couple more times, but this time he kicked Shen Jiazhou in the thigh and couldn't hold back, letting out a "hahahaha!"
Shen Jiazhou: ...
Wen Shuqiao: ... (hiss)
Unfortunately, one of the kids didn't notice that his uncle's expression had changed drastically. He was still swinging around and kicking Shen Jia Zhou several times.
Hehehe! A gentleman like me will settle a score on the spot!
