Chapter 174



The weather was so-so today; although the sun was out, it wasn't very warm.

Wen Shuqiao chose a coconut chicken restaurant in the mall. Since it was still early, she took Can Can's hand and strolled over slowly.

A gust of wind blew towards them, causing Can Can to shrink her neck a few times. Wen Shu Qiao looked down and asked, "Are you cold?"

Can Can shook her head: "It's not cold, it's just that the wind makes me feel chilly."

Can Can stretched her neck out as far as she could, and it felt cool! But she wasn't cold!

Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but smile: "Why are you starting to say one thing and mean another, just like your uncle?"

As soon as we went out, he insisted on wearing this new outfit. I had put a soft little scarf on it for him, but he secretly took it off after we came out, saying it didn't look good at all.

You've only walked a few steps and you're already shrugging your neck?

Wen Shuqiao squatted down and put the little scarf back on him: "Hmm, you look so handsome, baby."

Can Can pouted, not quite believing her aunt's words, because in her aunt's eyes, it was only when the baby was picky about food that he was not handsome.

Wen Shuqiao cupped his chubby face in her hands: "You're really handsome, and you look even more handsome and beautiful with the little scarf on."

Can Can then lowered his head, first touching the small scarf. It was indeed no longer cold with the scarf on, so he reluctantly said, "Then, then I won't wear it when we go into the mall later."

He still thinks it looks better without wearing it!

Wen Shuqiao stood up: "Okay, I promise you."

Can Can is truly happy now. When her uncle sees her, he'll know she's a very, very handsome baby!

Wen Shuqiao swung Cancan's hand: "Walk properly."

Can Can nodded, suppressing a laugh: "Okay, okay."

Then, taking advantage of Wen Shuqiao's momentary lapse in attention, he grabbed her hand and ran forward.

Wen Shuqiao followed along quickly, exclaiming helplessly, "Who taught you that?"

Even cakes don't explode like this!

The two, one big and one small, walked into the mall. The mall was well-heated, and Can Can couldn't wait to take off the little scarf around her neck, fold it up, and hand it to Wen Shu Qiao.

Wen Shuqiao lightly flicked her forehead. At such a young age, she's already prioritizing style over warmth.

It was still early before Shen Jiazhou's lunch break, so Wen Shuqiao wasn't in a hurry to go to the coconut chicken shop. Instead, she took Cancan and they strolled around the mall.

This shopping mall was much bigger than the ones she had visited before. Wen Shuqiao led Can Can aimlessly around, and as they wandered, they came across a camera shop.

Wen Shuqiao stopped at the door and looked inside. After just one glance, a salesperson inside greeted her warmly: "Good afternoon! Would you like to come in and have a look?"

"I'm just browsing." Wen Shuqiao was about to leave with Cancan in her hand when the salesperson said, "Come in and take a look, whether you buy anything or not is another matter."

Can Can curiously peeked his head into the store. He recognized the machines displayed in the glass cases—they were cameras that would make him look incredibly handsome, charming his aunt, uncle, and Uncle Xingyuan! Yo-ho! Hehe!

"What are you doing, putting on a one-man show?" the system replied. "It's so noisy to me; you're not mature at all."

"I'll be more mature when I grow up," Can Can replied casually. "Auntie said little babies should be lively."

[Sigh, growing up just makes you moderately mature, I guess.] The system's code practically leaps into the air: [Also, didn't you say you didn't want to be a baby anymore? Why are you still calling me "baby baby" all the time?]

Can Can chose not to hear the system's words.

While Xiao Yitong was muttering to himself, Wen Shuqiao still took Cancan's hand and walked into the camera shop.

There's only one salesperson in the shop right now. She said, "I can show you each one or let you feel the texture of it."

The salesperson casually picked up a camera: "This is our new mirrorless camera, suitable for everyday use. It's also very lightweight and compact, making it easy to carry around. We'll include two lenses, and it looks great for both portraits and landscapes."

Wen Shuqiao took the demo unit and fiddled with it following the salesperson's instructions. The image quality was indeed much better than her phone's.

She asked, "Are there any more professional ones?"

She didn't really understand the different types of cameras.

The salesperson said, "Yes, you can take a look at our new sixth generation. Both the processor and the imaging are very stable. You can try out the demo unit first..."

Accompanied by the salesperson, Wen Shuqiao tried several different items. Can Can followed obediently behind Wen Shuqiao, neither making a fuss nor fuss. Although he couldn't understand them, he could tell that they were things his aunt liked.

He looked curiously at the prices on the shelf and asked, "Brother, how much is this?"

The system replied: "The price is alright, nothing special."

Cancan nodded: "I have it."

He has so much money in his piggy bank now, 18888, no problem!

The system didn't say anything, so this kid clearly didn't understand the price.

After looking at it, Wen Shuqiao returned the camera to the salesperson: "Thank you."

The salesperson put the camera back: "You're welcome. You can go back and think about it. It's almost New Year's, and I can even give you a discount."

Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "Okay, thank you. I'll think about it when I get back."

She took Can Can's hand and left the camera shop. They figured it was about time, so they prepared to go upstairs to the coconut chicken shop.

Can Can glanced back at the store entrance that was getting further and further away from them, then looked up and asked, "Auntie, aren't you going to buy anything?"

"It's expensive," Wen Shuqiao said. "My aunt won't buy it."

She actually has some savings, but she needs to rent an apartment soon and hasn't found a new job yet, so buying a camera now would be a heavy burden for her.

She waved her bright hand: "Auntie will buy it when she has money."

Is it expensive?

Can Can was puzzled. "18,888? That's not expensive! You can buy that with all the money in the baby jar!"

The system said leisurely: [What to buy? You'll find out when you start kindergarten.]

Eighteen thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight is indeed expensive for someone who is unemployed.
