After resting for a while, Shen Jiazhou generously returned the small bouquet to Cancan.
The uncle and nephew each carried a bouquet of flowers, walking beside Wen Shuqiao. They both looked very happy, occasionally comparing their flowers.
After Wen Shuqiao looked over, the older one looked at the tree, the sky, and the road again, acting as if nothing had happened.
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but say, "If you're happy, just be happy. Why are you hiding it?"
“Who’s happy?” Shen Jiazhou said, holding flowers in his hand. “Besides, why would I hide my happiness? I’m being very open about it.”
Wen Shuqiao thought for a moment and said, "President Shen, do you know what this is called in novels?"
Shen Jiazhou raised an eyebrow: "Handsome, rich, and domineering CEO? I still know how to use the internet."
Wen Shuqiao held up one finger and shook it: "No."
Shen Jiazhou looked down at himself and said, "Could it be some kind of younger wolfhound? I don't understand why people would want to be animalized."
Wen Shuqiao exclaimed, "You seem to do quite a lot of surfing the internet!"
Shen Jiazhou muttered, "Of course."
He had been curious when he saw Wen Shuqiao typing away on the keyboard, so he did some random searching when he had free time and vaguely remembered some things.
Wen Shuqiao said, "But it's still not right. The younger woman is younger, but you..."
Shen Jiazhou pursed his lips and looked at her with a resentful expression.
Wen Shuqiao gave a thumbs up: "You're young too."
Shen Jiazhou scoffed, "You were just saying I was the most beautiful flower, and now you're pointing fingers at my age. Wen Shuqiao, you're being blatantly malicious."
Wen Shuqiao hummed in agreement twice: "Tsundere."
Tsundere? What exactly is tsundere?
He initially thought the word wasn't a good one, but by the time he came to his senses, Wen Shuqiao was already holding Cancan's hand and running forward.
"Run! Uncle's coming to get us!"
Can Can quickly started running, her little legs moving faster and faster!
Shen Jiazhou sighed, "This is unfair, wait for me."
His feet followed his own instincts, and after running a couple of steps, he suddenly wanted to look up.
Looking up, there was a clear blue sky and large, fluffy white clouds, just like the food that Can Can loves to eat.
A gentle breeze brushed against the hair on his forehead, but Shen Jiazhou felt no chill of winter at all.
He didn't stop walking; he continued to chase after those ahead, his hair disheveled, smiling as he waited for them.
*
I came back at exactly eleven o'clock after my walk.
Shen Jiazhou rolled up his sleeves and followed Wen Shuqiao into the kitchen. When they came back, they went to the supermarket and bought some fresh vegetables.
Wen Shuqiao said, "Actually, I can do it myself."
Shen Jiazhou said, "You look down on me."
“…No,” Wen Shuqiao said. “I just thought it would be faster if I came.”
"It's the same whether you're directing from the sidelines," Shen Jiazhou said. "Try my cooking at noon today."
Shen Jiazhou is now very comfortable in the kitchen, and he can handle everything from preparing and chopping vegetables with ease. The glutinous rice balls he cooked this morning gave him a lot of confidence.
Seeing that he was very interested, Wen Shuqiao gave up trying to persuade him.
After helping him prepare the dishes, Wen Shuqiao shooed Cancan, who was peeling garlic, out of the room.
Can Can said, "Auntie, I want to help Uncle cook too."
Wen Shuqiao turned to look at Shen Jiazhou, who was pouring oil into the pot, and whispered, "If you stay here, there won't be any surprise when your uncle finishes cooking. Go outside and wait for your uncle's surprise."
Upon hearing this, Can Can nodded: "Okay! I'm going to play with my toys now."
After shooing Can Can away, Wen Shuqiao returned to the stove, but unexpectedly, Shen Jiazhou suddenly stepped back while holding the spatula, bumping directly into her.
Wen Shuqiao was stunned for a moment, then reached out and grabbed his arms: "Are you reversing like a human?"
Shen Jiazhou turned around and glanced back: "Sorry, I didn't see you. The pot suddenly started exploding..."
Wen Shuqiao glanced at it: "It's just a drop of water, it'll be fine after the water boils."
Shen Jiazhou said "Oh," and quickly stood up straight, trying to cover for himself: "I... I didn't know. I know now. Hey, it's no big deal."
Wen Shuqiao was too lazy to expose his stubbornness: "Come closer, and turn the fire down a bit."
Shen Jiazhou walked over and stretched out his arm to turn the switch.
Wen Shuqiao silently moved a little further away.
Shen Jiazhou noticed this and said, "...Wen Shuqiao."
Wen Shuqiao responded with a "Yes, yes."
"Come closer, I'm not going to blow up the kitchen, why are you standing so far away?" Shen Jiazhou picked up the beef: "Come here, stand behind me, I'll protect you."
Wen Shuqiao hissed, and Shen Jiazhou clicked his tongue: "Hurry up, how can you teach if you're standing so far away? Teacher Wen, you're not doing your job properly."
Wen Shuqiao said, "I suddenly feel a headache."
Shen Jiazhou chuckled twice: "Come on, stand behind me."
Wen Shuqiao knew she couldn't escape it. She took a deep breath. What storms hadn't she weathered? Shen Jiazhou was just cooking! What was there to be afraid of? Don't be afraid!
Wen Shuqiao opened her mouth and said, "Then turn off the fire first."
Shen Jiazhou turned to look at her in confusion, and Wen Shuqiao said, "The oil temperature is too high. If you pour things in like that, they'll either burn or explode."
"Oh, I know, I know, it's off, it's off."
Can Can walked past the kitchen glass door with her toy in her hand, stood at the door for a while, and then happily walked away.
Anyway, with his aunt and uncle around, he won't go hungry.
