Chapter 315 Just One Step Away



Can Can looked at her uncle's series of confusing behaviors and didn't quite understand.

He asked, "Auntie, what's wrong with Uncle?"

Why did you suddenly stop helping him bathe?

Although Wen Shuqiao remained calm on the surface, the tips of her ears were slightly red. She continued to bathe Cancan, saying, "It's nothing, she probably just wants to rest."

Can Can made an "oh" sound and continued playing with the little duck, putting the little incident from her mind.

Wen Shuqiao quickly calmed down. She helped Cancan take a bath, wrapped him in a towel, carried him to the bed, dried his body, and then dressed him in pajamas.

During this time, Shen Jiazhou did not come in again.

Wen Shuqiao returned to the bathroom. She intended to drain the water from the bathtub, but stopped in front of the mirror.

She looked at herself in the mirror and saw that she looked no different from usual.

But Wen Shuqiao knew very well that her mind was in turmoil at this moment. While teasing Shen Jiazhou, she was actually testifying to something, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Now, the answer is clear.

Wen Shuqiao raised her hand and pressed her temples, trying hard to put the answer out of her mind, but she couldn't shake off Shen Jiazhou's reaction.

"boom--"

A sudden rumble of thunder snapped Wen Shuqiao back to reality.

Wen Shuqiao raised her hands and patted her face before leaving the mirror.

After she finished washing up and came downstairs, Shen Jiazhou also came out of the master bedroom. He sat on the sofa, looking down at his phone, as if he was sending a message.

Upon hearing Wen Shuqiao's footsteps, he almost reflexively looked up at her.

Wen Shuqiao had already changed into her pajamas and asked as she came downstairs, "Aren't you going to rest yet?"

She noticed that Shen Jiazhou had also changed into his pajamas, so he must have already washed up.

His face and ears were no longer red, and he seemed to have calmed down.

Shen Jiazhou replied, "I'll rest soon."

He put down his phone and looked at Wen Shuqiao with bright eyes.

It's hard for Wen Shuqiao to ignore her.

Under Shen Jiazhou's gaze, she walked step by step to him, thought for a moment, and said, "By the way, there's something I want to tell you."

Shen Jiazhou's brows furrowed: "What?"

"Teacher Xie just sent me a WeChat official account recommendation." Wen Shuqiao took her phone out of her pajamas pocket.

Upon hearing Xie Jingbei's name, Shen Jiazhou's lips drooped a few pixels, but he still pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "What?"

Wen Shuqiao quickly found the content on the official account and handed her phone to Shen Jiazhou for him to take a look.

Shen Jiazhou took the phone and quickly browsed the content of the official account.

The entire article boils down to just one thing.

Frequent travel.

Shen Jiazhou's brain seemed a little fuzzy. He asked, "Long-term travel?"

“Hmm.” Wen Shuqiao said, “This long-term trip is actually a travel photography trip. We go to different places to photograph different people, things and scenery. There is this event every year. I just asked Xiaoqi, and Xiaoqi wants to participate too.”

Shen Jiazhou understood, and his heart trembled.

He understood what Wen Shuqiao meant; Wen Shuqiao wanted to go.

Then, the message Xie Jingbei sent her indirectly indicated that Xie Jingbei would also be going.

Wen Shuqiao looked at him, thought for a moment, and continued, "This activity will last about two months, just traveling around the country, and you can end the trip early. There is no requirement to complete the entire journey."

Shen Jiazhou returned the phone to Wen Shuqiao. His throat felt a little sore, and the thought of Xie Jingbei also going made it impossible for him to speak. However, he still asked, "Do you want to go?"

Wen Shuqiao nodded: "I want to go. Teacher Xie said that there are usually seven or eight people, all of them photographers."

She'll definitely learn a lot by going out with the photography group.

In the past, she might have politely declined, but after seeing this message, she thought about it for a long time and didn't rush to reply.

Shen Jiazhou's romantic thoughts completely vanished at this moment. He calmed down for a while before saying, "If you want to go, then go ahead."

He had no reason to let Wen Shuqiao stay just because she said she liked him.

Wen Shuqiao said, "Cancan..."

"Can Can, I'll take good care of her." Shen Jiazhou returned to his usual self, his expression softening. "Just go do what you want to do."

“Shen Jiazhou…” Wen Shuqiao couldn’t help but call his name.

Shen Jiazhou tilted his head slightly and asked softly, "What?"

Wen Shuqiao pursed her lips: "It's nothing."

She felt that both she and Shen Jiazhou probably needed to calm down.

The two of them became inseparable because of Cancan, and sometimes their emotions and feelings might create a kind of illusion.

Wen Shuqiao smiled at him: "Let me think about it some more. After all, there's still some time. It's getting late, time to rest. Goodnight."

"Hmm." Shen Jiazhou lowered his eyes, not looking at Wen Shuqiao.

Wen Shuqiao, holding her phone, walked around the sofa and headed towards the children's room.

Just as she was about to reach the door, she heard footsteps behind her, and then heard Shen Jiazhou call her back.

"Shu Qiao".

Just as Wen Shuqiao was about to turn around, she heard Shen Jiazhou ask somewhat cryptically, "Do you know?"

Now that he's calmed down, he realizes how wrong his reaction was.

"boom--"

After Shen Jiazhou asked the question, the muffled thunder sounded again, even louder than the first one.

Everyone inside was startled. Wen Shuqiao subconsciously looked out the window, but felt the person behind her getting closer.

Shen Jiazhou watched Wen Shuqiao's retreating figure; the two were now only a step apart.
