Just as Wen Shuqiao had said, as soon as I stepped out of the building, I felt the cold wind blowing on my face.
Wen Shuqiao subconsciously shrank her neck and put her other hand back into her pocket, while the hand she was holding with Shen Jiazhou remained warm.
Although the Spring Festival has passed, lanterns, bright colored lights, and various kinds of peace knots are still hanging in the community.
It still looks very festive.
At this hour, almost every household in the neighborhood still had their lights on, but there were very few people in the neighborhood. The two of them walked around for a while but didn't see anyone.
Wen Shuqiao zipped her jacket up to the maximum, protecting her neck, and then turned to look at Shen Jiazhou.
His ears were a little red; I wonder if it was from the cold.
She shook their clasped hands: "Your ears are all red from the cold, thank goodness you weren't wearing a coat."
Shen Jiazhou intertwined his fingers with hers, then put her hand in his pocket: "Other people dress up smartly for dates, but when I do, all you ask me is if I'm cold."
"I'm just concerned about you," Wen Shuqiao said. "President Shen's face is right here; he'd look handsome even in a burlap sack."
"Don't try to coax me with those kinds of words." Shen Jiazhou snorted. "Speaking of clothes, some brands have started releasing spring collections. I'll have them send a few sets to our house in a couple of days. You can choose one; there are sets for both of us, and for Can Can."
Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Okay."
Shen Jiazhou was satisfied. He then said, "We'll go out for dinner tomorrow night. Do you and Cancan want to come directly to the company? Or I can pick you up."
"Send me the address, I'll take him to play the claw machine this afternoon, and then we'll go straight to the restaurant," Wen Shuqiao said, "to avoid trouble."
Shen Jiazhou relented: "Okay, okay, when will you take me to play the claw machine too?"
Wen Shuqiao laughed and said, "Are you CanCan 2.0? Do you need me to take you to play the claw machine?"
“Going to the claw machine with me is different from going by myself,” Shen Jiazhou said very seriously. “It’s a date.”
Hearing his words, Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but lower her head and smile slightly: "I understand."
Shen Jiazhou deliberately asked her, "What do you know?"
"I knew we were going on a date," Wen Shuqiao replied cooperatively.
However, after answering, the two of them couldn't help but laugh.
Wen Shuqiao said, "Aren't you childish?"
Shen Jiazhou fiddled with his hand, which was tucked into his pocket, and said, "Not childish."
Wen Shuqiao commented, "You're so sticky and gooey. I never thought you had this side to you."
"There are many things you haven't considered. I have other aspects to consider, we'll see them later." Shen Jiazhou turned to look at her, his tone softening considerably: "From now on, let's support each other and live our lives well, okay?"
Wen Shuqiao's expression softened considerably. She nodded and softly hummed in agreement.
Shen Jiazhou seemed to remember something else and continued, "I'll go see a lawyer tomorrow."
Wen Shuqiao asked in confusion, "Why do you need a lawyer?"
“I have 70% of the shares, and I’ll give you 20%. You won’t have to worry about money anymore. You can go wherever you want. I’ll be waiting for you to come back home.” Shen Jiazhou made the decision quickly.
It's normal for photographers to travel around. Although Shen Jiazhou managed Wen Shuqiao's finances, photography is expensive, and Wen Shuqiao's resources were simply not enough.
His company is already preparing for an IPO, and giving Wen Shuqiao 20% of the shares will ensure her financial security; at least, she won't have to worry about money.
Wen Shuqiao was stunned when she heard Shen Jiazhou's words. They had only been in a relationship for about two hours, and Shen Jiazhou had already evolved to the point of giving away money for free.
She said, "I have enough money; I don't need your shares."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt the hand that Shen Jiazhou had put in his pocket squeeze her.
“When Can Can doesn’t like listening to people, she has four hundred little fidgets, and you have eight hundred.” Wen Shuqiao smirked. “You still won’t admit that you two are exactly the same.”
Shen Jiazhou continued to fiddle with her fingers in his pocket: "I'm serious, I'll give you twenty shares unconditionally."
“Even if you take it seriously, I still can’t accept it,” Wen Shuqiao said. “Aren’t you afraid I’ll run off with the shares?”
Shen Jiazhou chuckled softly. He said, "I'm so scared. When you take the shares, can you take me with you? Oh, and there's also Can Can. How about you take us to wander the world?"
Wen Shuqiao stopped and turned slightly to look at Shen Jiazhou, then reached out her other hand to touch his forehead.
Shen Jiazhou obediently let her touch his forehead: "Dr. Wen, please look at me, I feel so hot."
"If you're hot, drink more cold water to neutralize it." Wen Shuqiao put down her hand and said in a serious tone, "Drinking some hot water will be fine."
Shen Jiazhou released her hand, instead putting his arm around her shoulder and pulling her closer. He then lowered his head and rested it on her shoulder, holding her with his other arm. In this way, the super-sized man lay sprawled on Wen Shuqiao's body.
He said, "No, just stay close to me."
Wen Shuqiao took a step forward, and Shen Jiazhou immediately followed with a step, wanting to stick close to her.
As Wen Shuqiao turned her head, Shen Jiazhou took the opportunity to kiss her on the cheek.
"That's enough," Wen Shuqiao said. "How can you be so clingy?"
In front of everyone, he wished he could just hang on her.
Shen Jiazhou rubbed his face against hers: "Don't you like me being clingy? Then just pretend you're the one being clingy to me."
"Your ability to distort the truth is getting better and better." Wen Shuqiao lightly patted his hand that was wrapped around her waist: "Are you still going for a walk? If not, let's go home."
