Wen Shuqiao watched Yu Mingxue's departing figure, then looked down at Cancan.
Can Can was also watching Yu Mingxue's back. After watching for a while, he looked up at Wen Shuqiao and said, "Auntie, let's go home."
Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Okay, let's go home first."
It's not a good time to ask questions outside. She originally wanted to ask Shen Jiazhou, but after thinking about it, she realized that he was still driving and it would be easy to get distracted if she called him rashly. Besides, he still had things to do at his company, and that person named Yu Mingxue probably wouldn't be coming today.
And she also needs to ask Can Can to get to the bottom of things.
Back home, Wen Shuqiao helped him change into fluffy pajamas. After he greeted the cats and dogs, she called him to the sofa.
Wen Shuqiao asked, "Baby, Auntie has something to ask you."
Can Can nodded. She had been sitting properly on the sofa, but as soon as she heard her aunt speak, she instinctively snuggled into her aunt's arms.
I spent half a day in jail with my uncle, it was so tiring! He doesn't like going to work at all!
Wen Shuqiao held him in her arms. The latest cartoon was playing on TV. She asked, "Have you seen that aunt before?"
Can Can nodded first, then shook his head. He said, "Mom showed me pictures of pretty aunties! So many times! She wanted me to remember the aunties' faces..."
As he spoke, he became a little guilty because he had completely forgotten about it. If he hadn't seen the pretty auntie today, he wouldn't have remembered at all!
Why did Wen Zhixia make Can Can remember Yu Mingxue's face?
Not only was Wen Shuqiao puzzled, but even the system was confused.
It had absolutely no recollection of this aunt named Yu Mingxue.
The system said: 【Mom…】
It paused, then continued after a few seconds: "When did your mother make you remember her?"
At the same time, Wen Shuqiao asked a similar question: "Did your mother tell you to remember this? What else did she say to you? Do you remember it?"
Can Can lay on Wen Shu Qiao's body, trying hard to think. He stammered, "Mommy said, Auntie, Auntie will come to find baby! And...and..."
He's got it!
Can Can straightened up from her arms and said quickly, "Mommy said that if Auntie wants to take Baby away, then Baby will go with Auntie!"
Wen Shuqiao's thoughts became even more confused. Why would Wen Zhixia say such a thing to Cancan?
She continued, "Have you ever seen this aunt in person before?"
Can Can shook her head: "I don't remember, look at the photo!"
The system also fell silent. It was also very curious as to why she would tell Can Can to go with Yu Mingxue.
Wen Shuqiao continued to ask a few more questions, but Can Can was too young to remember so many. She only remembered what Yu Mingxue looked like after seeing Yu Mingxue in person.
She patted his head: "Okay, Auntie understands. Go back to watching cartoons. I'll ask Uncle if he's arrived at the company yet."
Yu Mingxue said that Cancan's sweet talk was neither like her mother's nor her father's, which means that she knows both of them.
Regardless, she had to inform Shen Jiazhou.
Can Can nodded, though reluctant, he left his aunt's warm embrace and curled up on the sofa. Milk, which had been lying on the coffee table, got up when it saw him curled up, jumped lightly to his side, yawned, and closed its eyes to sleep.
Wen Shuqiao got up, and the cake was sticking out its tongue at her feet. Wen Shuqiao bent down, patted the cake's head, and left the living room with her phone.
Once inside the children's room, Wen Shuqiao sent a message.
Have we arrived yet?
Shen Jiazhou had just picked up his phone to get out of the car when he saw the screen light up. He swiped to see what it was—a message from Wen Shuqiao.
He replied: "I just parked the car."
The message had barely been sent when Wen Shuqiao called.
Wen Shuqiao rarely calls him. When she does receive a call, it's usually from Cancan using her phone.
He frowned slightly. Could something have happened?
As Shen Jiazhou answered the phone, he fastened his seatbelt again: "Shuqiao."
Wen Shuqiao on the other end of the phone hummed in agreement and said, "There's something I want to tell you."
Shen Jiazhou asked, "What is it?"
“A lady just came looking for Can Can.” Wen Shuqiao had just finished saying this.
Shen Jiazhou frowned even more deeply: "Who? I'm back now."
The security level of his residential community is very high; not just anyone can enter the community gate.
“No need, she’s already gone.” Wen Shuqiao quickly said, “She said her name is Yu Mingxue, and Can Can also said she’d seen her picture, so they must know each other, which is why I’m telling you.”
“Yu Mingxue?” Shen Jiazhou’s brows relaxed slightly. He said, “She actually came back.”
It had only been a few days since Yu Mingxue called him, but he hadn't expected her to appear so quickly.
Wen Shuqiao asked, "You know them too?"
“Yes, she and Shen Jiachen were childhood friends. Shen Jiachen left, and she went abroad and hasn’t come back.” Shen Jiazhou said, “Don’t worry about her.”
"Okay, I just wanted to let you know, that's all." Wen Shuqiao said, "You go ahead and do your work, bye-bye."
Shen Jiazhou hummed in agreement, but before he could even say goodbye, the phone went dead.
He took the phone off his ear, glanced at the screen where the call was no longer going on, and thought to himself, "Hanged up so quickly? I hadn't even finished speaking yet. It makes me seem so impolite."
However, Shen Jiazhou's heart settled back into his stomach. He breathed a sigh of relief and reached for the car door. Just as he got up to get out of the car, he found himself firmly restrained in his seat by the seatbelt.
