Neither of them spoke in the room.
Shen Jiazhou had already begun to search through a million possibilities in his mind. He first ruled out physical reasons, but what other reason could there be that would make Wen Shuqiao so dejected?
Wen Shuqiao took a deep breath, then sighed softly. She looked up and said, "Shen Shiyue is here."
Shen Shiyue?
Shen Jiazhou looked bewildered: "Isn't that little piggy Shen Shiyue sleeping in the children's room next door?"
“It’s not Can Can.” Wen Shuqiao moved closer to Shen Jiazhou, facing him directly. “It’s Shen Shiyue.”
Is there any difference between Can Can and Shen Shiyue?
Wen Shuqiao continued, "Do you still remember Wen Zhixia's diary?"
“…I remember.” Shen Jiazhou certainly wouldn’t forget those contents; he had even taken those few short sentences as a form of self-reflection.
His life, his brilliant life, must absolutely not repeat the same mistakes.
Whenever he felt lost, he would always think of these words.
He must fulfill his share of responsibility.
Wen Shuqiao sighed again: "Shen Shiyue, who experienced your death, has come."
Shen Jiazhou was shocked: "What?"
“I know it’s hard to believe,” Wen Shuqiao said. “But it’s true. I had a dream last night. In the dream, it said that if I couldn’t find him within ten days, either Shen Shiyue would disappear, or he would unknowingly… replace Cancan.”
Wen Shuqiao quickly explained the system's message to Shen Jiazhou.
After he finished speaking, Shen Jiazhou could only breathe softly.
Wen Shuqiao pursed her lips: "I know it's hard to believe and hard to digest, but I rushed back because of this. But I found that I have no idea where Shen Shiyue is hiding, and I can't take Cancan away to hide."
After a while, Shen Jiazhou came to his senses. He hugged Wen Shuqiao tighter and said in a gentle voice, "I believe what you said."
In reality, his mind was in turmoil.
Has Shen Shiyue actually arrived?
Wen Shuqiao hugged him back: "I don't know what to do about this. Even if we find him, all we can do is advise him to leave and go back to his own world."
She was so angry she wanted to curse. This task was a complete trap.
She didn't want Can Can to be replaced, nor did she want Shen Shiyue to disappear, and she certainly didn't want Shen Shiyue to return to that collapsed world.
"After we find him..." Wen Shuqiao didn't know what to say: "Let's talk about it after we find him."
She can no longer see Can Can and Shen Shiyue as the same person.
Shen Jiazhou came to his senses. His Adam's apple bobbed as he tried to say something, but found himself at a loss for words.
His feelings were somewhat complicated at that moment.
Whether it's Can Can or Shen Shiyue, they are both children he loves. Especially after learning that Shen Shiyue collapsed because of his death in his first life, his guilt deepened.
He asked, "Isn't there... a way to have the best of both worlds? Let him and Can Can stay. Even if there are ten Can Cans and ten Shen Shiyues, I can afford to support them."
“In the eyes of this world, there can only be one Shen Shiyue.” Wen Shuqiao lay down, looking at the ceiling in the dim light: “There are many things that we cannot fight against.”
Even having a chance to start over is already quite difficult.
Shen Jiazhou remained silent for an unusually long time this time.
It took so long that Wen Shuqiao almost thought he had fallen asleep before he finally spoke: "I will keep an eye out. Although I don't know his features, I'm sure I can recognize him."
What adult wouldn't recognize their own child?
Their hands were clasped tightly together under the blanket. Shen Jiazhou continued, "Actually, hearing you say that, I feel a little fortunate."
He said, "After seeing Zhixia's diary, I really wanted to apologize to him."
Then hug him and praise him.
In another timeline, I was a quiet, reserved person who didn't seem to have raised my baby very well.
But he still managed to become such a wonderful adult, which must have taken a tremendous amount of effort.
Shen Jiazhou buried his face in Wen Shuqiao's shoulder: "Why does fate treat him like this? He's clearly the best kid."
Wen Shuqiao felt that the collar of her pajamas was a little damp, and Shen Jiazhou's warm tears fell silently.
Shen Jiazhou murmured, "Fate has really been unfair to him."
Wen Shuqiao turned slightly to the side, gently patted his back, and didn't say anything.
Both of them were feeling a bit down at the moment.
After calming down for a while, Shen Jiazhou sighed heavily: "Tomorrow when we go to the kindergarten, we'll first go and see the children in his class. We need to pay special attention to An'an."
"Okay." Wen Shuqiao thought so too: "I'll keep an eye on things at the kindergarten tomorrow, you should just focus on your work."
She could spend a day observing in the kindergarten's monitoring room, hoping to find some clues.
Just as Shen Jiazhou was about to say that he would go along, Wen Shuqiao said, "When you're at work, keep an eye on Xiaomiao and Lin Yan, as well as other aunties or uncles who are familiar with Cancan."
He swallowed his words: "Okay, I'll talk to you about it tomorrow."
"Hmm." Wen Shuqiao took a deep breath: "I feel much better now that I've said it, but I also feel very sorry for you. You're going to be upset with me."
Shen Jiazhou simply kissed the corner of her lips: "There's nothing I should apologize for between us. Besides, I'll only be sad if you don't tell me about this."
"I wanted to tell you this morning, but... I didn't know how to say it," Wen Shuqiao said. "And with Can Can here, I didn't know even more how to say it."
