Just then, she saw Xie Jingbei walking in, probably heading to his office. She went over and said, "Teacher Xie."
Xie Jingbei stopped and looked up at her: "Hmm?"
Wen Shuqiao walked quickly to him and handed him the coffee: "Thank you for the ride. I didn't know what you liked to drink, so I bought you the signature latte."
Xie Jingbei chuckled as he looked at the coffee, and without any hesitation, accepted it, saying, "Thank you. I have a meeting to attend. See you later."
Wen Shuqiao hummed in agreement, then turned around and walked back.
Xie Jingbei was originally going to take the coffee to the office, but he caught a glimpse of Wen Shuqiao's back out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head and saw Wen Shuqiao raising her hands and tying her beautiful hair up with a black hair tie. The black hair curled and fell between her fair fingers, and a few seconds later, she tied it into a low ponytail.
She walked straight into the photography studio, and even from just a side profile, you could see her eyes crinkling with laughter.
Xie Jingbei withdrew his gaze, looked down at the coffee he was carrying, and a slight smile appeared on his lips as he carried the coffee to his office.

The news about the annual meeting was announced in the group chat when Wen Shuqiao went to pick up Cancan. Not only the people in the studio, but also the students were invited.
Wen Shuqiao glanced at the location, which looked somewhat familiar. After thinking carefully, she remembered that she had been there when she first arrived. It was the place where the Su family had held a welcome banquet for Su Sisi.
She was still thinking that it seemed like a good place, since she had been there twice already.
My phone vibrated; it was a message from Zhong Qi, also about the company's annual meeting.
[Xiaoqi: Sister Qiao, are you going to the company's annual party?]
Wen Shuqiao replied: "I can't be sure yet, but I'll go if there's nothing else."
After all, the annual meeting is still a while away, so there's no rush.
[Xiaoqi: Yay! Yay! If you're going, you have to let me know! Hehehe, let's go together!]
Wen Shuqiao replied "okay," and the taxi arrived at the kindergarten, but there was still a traffic jam ahead. She simply paid the fare and got out of the car; walking over to queue would only take a minute or two.
She lined up, then looked down and texted Shen Jiazhou to say that she had arrived.
[Shen Jiazhou: I've arrived too, but it's very congested, and I'm still looking for a parking spot.]
Wen Shuqiao looked around, not seeing Shen Jiazhou's car, and replied with her head down, "Don't drive over. I'll pick up Cancan and come find you later."
Both lanes were completely blocked. By the time Shen Jiazhou found a spot to stop and pick someone up, she would probably have already picked up Can Can.
Shen Jiaju: Okay.
After making the arrangements, Wen Shuqiao put her phone back in her pocket and looked towards the kindergarten fence. The children coming out now were from the youngest class, each one well-behaved and adorable.
Wen Shuqiao waited anxiously for a long time before finally seeing the children from Class 1 (Middle) come out following the little signs.
Can Can was still on the tail, holding hands with another child. The two of them were whispering to each other, and Can Can didn't even look outside to see if her aunt had arrived.
An'an said, "Can Can, my uncle is here to pick me up today. Do you want to see him?"
Can Can actually wanted to see her aunt and uncle more, but she nodded anyway: "After I see my aunt, can I meet them?"
An'an pouted: "You just left as soon as you saw your aunt, you didn't care about me at all. My uncle is so handsome. Does your aunt have a husband?"
Can Can asked, "What is a husband?"
He didn't know if his aunt had a husband!
An'an didn't know how to explain it to Can Can, so he said, "It's the man who lives with your aunt! Like your parents."
Can Can understood, and he said, "Oh, yes! My aunt has a husband!"
My uncle lives with my aunt, so my uncle is my aunt's husband!
