After Xu Feng finished speaking, he left, looking like he didn't know what was good for him.
Wen Shuqiao didn't pay attention, but she remembered something else. After entering the house, she found that Cancan had been standing in the entryway waiting for her.
As she changed her shoes, she asked, "Why don't you come inside and sit down?"
With a worried look on his face, Can Can slowly walked up to Wen Shu Qiao, reached out and hugged one of her legs, looked up and pleaded, "Auntie, please don't send me away? I... I eat very little, I can even help you sweep the floor..."
He learned to do housework at the orphanage, where every child had to do what they could. When he first went there, he didn't know anything, but he tried his best to learn!
Hearing this, Wen Shuqiao's heart softened a little. She knew that the young male protagonist had also suffered a lot in the orphanage, and there were several descriptions of this in the text. When she read it, Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but feel sorry for the character.
When Shen Shiyue was young, he entered the orphanage. Because of his mild-mannered nature, he was bullied by the other children, who would steal his food. The director and volunteers were busy and could not watch him all the time.
His baby fat disappeared in the first month, and his originally chubby body also became much thinner.
Wen Shuqiao carried him all the way to buy clothes, and it felt like she was holding a feather.
It reminded her of her childhood. She was relatively lucky to have met a kind-hearted headmistress who liked her a lot, but even though she liked her a lot, she was bullied and teased by other children because she was short.
Feeling the fabric of her pants getting damp, Wen Shuqiao snapped out of her daze and looked down to see the young male lead silently shedding tears, one hand holding her leg and the other wiping away his own tears, trying hard not to cry out loud.
She bent down and easily picked him up, wiped his face, softened her tone, and said gently, "Auntie didn't say she was going to send Can Can away, don't cry, don't cry."
With teary eyes, Can Can looked at her aunt and asked between hiccups, "Really, really?"
Wen Shuqiao smiled and patted him on the back to help him catch his breath: "Really, that person was just talking nonsense. Auntie won't send the baby away, don't worry."
Can Can nodded, her little face wrinkled from crying, looking extremely pitiful.
Wen Shuqiao comforted him and placed him on the sofa: "Auntie is going to pack her things. You can watch cartoons by yourself."
She turned on the TV, put on an animated film for him, and then went back to the bedroom.
Xu Feng had just reminded her that she didn't want to make any connections or play games with Zhao Shao; she wanted to find something she could do herself.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to terminate the agreement.
She sorted through the memories that weren't her own and quickly found the contract.
After carefully reading through all the clauses, I felt relieved. The contract stated that the second party could terminate the contract at any time without incurring any legal consequences.
It must have been during the signing that the Su family had someone review it. Essentially, it was just nominally registered under Xu Feng's company, with all the resources provided by the Su family.
With a contract, things will be much easier.
Wen Shuqiao found the lawyer that the original owner had been working with and told her about terminating the contract. It was half an hour later when they finished talking.
She put her phone aside and was about to get up to look around the original owner's bedroom when she noticed that the young male lead was standing at the bedroom door, silently watching her.
Wen Shuqiao waved to him: "Come here."
The young male lead then jogged over to her, and Wen Shuqiao squatted down and asked, "What's wrong?"
Can Can's two little hands were tucked together, and he said, "I want to go with Auntie."
Wen Shuqiao understood; this was a lack of security.
She patted Cancan's head: "Okay, then how about Xiaobao helps Auntie pack the clothes?"
Given her current financial situation, Wen Shuqiao plans to take the bus herself to move her belongings. The bus fare is only two yuan, which is much cheaper than hiring a moving company. Anyway, she doesn't have much stuff, so she'll just treat it as a familiar route.
Can Can nodded vigorously: "Okay!"
Wen Shuqiao had a very clear plan. First, she sorted out Chunxia's clothes. When she actually started sorting things out, she realized that the original owner didn't seem to have much stuff. In the past six months, she had sold a lot of things to cover her financial shortfall.
After tidying up for more than an hour, Wen Shuqiao had almost finished sorting everything out. Looking to the side, she saw the young male lead sitting on the ground, full of energy, folding her clothes. And, to be fair, he folded them quite well.
It's almost time to have dinner.
Wen Shuqiao bought some vegetables on her way back, and they're almost cooked now.
As soon as she walked out, Can Can immediately got up from the ground and followed closely behind her.
Wen Shuqiao held his little hand. The little male lead was dressed warmly, and his little hand was also warm.
She said, "Auntie is going to make dinner. Does Xiaobao want to watch cartoons?"
Cancan said, "I'll help Auntie wash the vegetables! I'm really good at washing vegetables!"
Wen Shuqiao patted his head without saying anything.
When they got to the kitchen, the little boy indeed offered to help her, behaving so obediently that he didn't seem like a three-year-old at all. She thought for a moment, then moved the shoe-changing stool from the entryway and gave him a clove of garlic: "Then, would you please help Auntie peel this garlic, Can Can? Do you know how to do it, Can Can?"
"Canbao can do it!" Cancan's eyes sparkled: "I'll help, the dean peeled off so much!"
Wen Shuqiao gave a thumbs up: "Canbao is amazing!"
Can Can lowered her head and couldn't help but laugh, her little hands starting to move. Wen Shuqiao glanced at her a few times, and after confirming that there was no problem, she went to wash the ribs quickly.
