The car slowly drove towards them and finally came to a steady stop beside them.
An'an couldn't wait to get out of the car. He opened his arms and hugged Can Can: "Can Can!"
Can Can hugged him back, saying, "An An!"
After the two children greeted each other, An'an politely greeted Wen Shuqiao, "Auntie! Good afternoon!"
Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Good afternoon, An'an."
Can Can said, "An An, look at my puppy!"
An'an exclaimed, "Can I touch it?"
"Of course!" Can Can squatted down and called the cake to his side, and An An also squatted down next to him very willingly.
While the two children were playing with the dog, Xie Jingbei also got out of the car.
He smiled and said, "Shu Qiao."
Wen Shuqiao smiled at him and said, "Good afternoon, Teacher Xie."
Xie Jingbei looked into the Emerald Courtyard: "You live here?"
Wen Shuqiao said, "You haven't moved in yet, Teacher Xie, are you staying here?"
"Yes, what a coincidence." Xie Jingbei was also a little surprised: "No wonder I saw you around here that day."
"It really is a coincidence." Wen Shuqiao also thought it was too much of a coincidence.
Xie Jingbei asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
When Can Can heard Xie Jingbei's question, she looked up and said, "Uncle An'an, my aunt and I are going to eat coconut chicken."
"What is coconut chicken?" An'an asked curiously. "Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious! It's sweet, even the green vegetables taste sweet when cooked in it." Can Can swallowed hard. "Haven't you ever tried it before?"
An'an shook her head: "I've never eaten it before!"
He asked, "Can I eat with you?"
Can Can nodded and said, "Sure, you can come with me! I'll give you half of mine."
An An was touched and moved the cake's head slightly: "Can Can, you are truly my best friend."
Wen Shuqiao smiled, then looked at Xie Jingbei: "Teacher Xie, shall I take An'an with me?"
Xie Jingbei wanted to say something, but the words caught in his throat, so he changed his mind and said, "Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?"
An'an immediately retorted, "Uncle! I'm very obedient! I won't run around while holding Can Can's hand!"
Can Can also looked up and said to Xie Jingbei, "Don't worry, Uncle An'an, I will take good care of An'an."
The two children held hands tightly, as if they were inseparable.
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "No trouble at all, I'll bring him over later."
Xie Jingbei nodded: "Then I'll trouble you, Shuqiao."
He thought of something and took out his phone: "Let's add each other on WeChat."
Wen Shuqiao also took out her phone and scanned his QR code. After Xie Jingbei received the friend request, he clicked "accept" and said, "You can call me when you're done, and I'll come pick him up."
"Let's see later, they might play for a while longer." Wen Shuqiao put her phone back in her pocket. "I'm leaving, Teacher Xie."
An'an waved to her uncle: "Goodbye, Teacher Xie."
Xie Jingbei said helplessly, "You brat."
Can Can also pulled the cake and politely said, "Bye-bye, Uncle An An."
Xie Jingbei patted Cancan's head: "Bye-bye Cancan."
Wen Shuqiao hailed a taxi with the two of them. After getting in the car, An'an kept playing with the cake. Can Can watched for a while, then glanced out the window. An'an's uncle also got in the car and drove into the residential area.
Can Can snapped out of her daze and asked, "Auntie, why don't you let Uncle An An come with us to eat coconut chicken?"
Wen Shuqiao said, "It's not very convenient."
Can Can didn't quite understand, and Wen Shu Qiao didn't say much, just patted his head: "Why don't you play with An An? Let's take the cake home first, and then I'll take you to the arcade to play claw machines this afternoon, okay?"
Upon hearing this, An'an exclaimed, "Auntie, Auntie, I love playing the claw machine!"
Wen Shuqiao gently pinched An'an's chubby cheeks: "Then you and Cancan will catch them together later, okay?"
"Okay!" An'an said, "Can Can, I'll win you tons of plush toys later!"
"I can do that too!" Can Can said, "Then I'll win you lots of plush toys!"
The two kids are ready! They're just waiting to show off their skills at the claw machine!
Wen Shuqiao smiled as she looked at the two men's "heroic spirit," thinking to herself, "It would be best if we caught a lot of them."

After eating the coconut chicken, An'an burped, and Can Can took his hand and asked, "Wasn't it delicious, An'an?"
An'an nodded: "Delicious! The claypot rice is delicious too! It's even better than the rice at my house!"
Next time, let the nanny make him baby food too!
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but laugh as she listened to their conversation.
Can Can saw this and asked, "Auntie, what are you laughing at?"
"I can't help but smile because you're both so cute." Wen Shuqiao walked between them and took their hands: "We're going down the escalator, so make sure you stand firm."
There was a small arcade inside the mall. They went down to the third floor, and since it was the weekend, there were quite a few people in the arcade.
An'an kept exclaiming "Wow!" as she watched. When she wanted to talk to Can Can, she saw Can Can calmly holding her aunt's hand and saying to her aunt, "Auntie, can we exchange more coins? An'an and I want to play lots of games."
Upon hearing this, the system, which had been in standby mode, couldn't help but say, "Oh, so you dare to make a request now."
After seeing Wen Shuqiao nod, Can Can replied, "Why don't I dare to make requests? Auntie said she'll consider them as long as they're reasonable!"
The system snorted: "Then do you even know what's reasonable and what's unreasonable?"
"I don't need to know now," Can Can said. "If my request is unreasonable, Auntie will refuse me, and then I'll know, right?"
...That's a very reasonable rebuttal.
The system couldn't help but think, "Going to kindergarten really makes a difference; it's all logical and well-founded."
It looked at Wen Shuqiao, who was buying game tokens, through its bright eyes. Wen Shuqiao bought one hundred game tokens and divided them into two portions for them to keep.
An An weighed the game coin in her hand; it made a clinking sound inside the plastic cup, which was quite unusual.
Wen Shuqiao took out her phone, stood behind them, took a picture, and sent it to Xie Chuying and Shen Jiazhou.
Before I could even put my phone back in my bag, I received a new message.
[Shen Jiazhou: Hmm? Isn't that kid next to me An'an?]
Wen Shuqiao replied: "Teacher Xie also lives in Emerald Courtyard. We ran into him and An'an when we left the complex at noon. An'an is playing with Can Can right now."
Shen Jiazhou: ...What a coincidence.
