Wen Shuqiao understood what he meant. She patted Shen Jiazhou's head and laughed, "You still did it, didn't you? You treated me to a super expensive meal, didn't you? Given my situation at the time, even instant noodles with two eggs would have been a luxury."
“I didn’t treat you to a meal alone,” Shen Jiazhou said. “I treated everyone to a meal.”
“Well, I got to eat too,” Wen Shuqiao said. “And you treated everyone to a meal so I could feel more comfortable. President Shen is so generous, considerate, and thoughtful. He’s amazing. Here’s a kiss.”
Shen Jiazhou then straightened up, his eyes already watery.
Wen Shuqiao wiped away his tears with her fingertips and laughed, "What's wrong, President Chen? Aren't you a cool guy? How did you turn into a crybaby? Even Can Can doesn't cry anymore."
In comparison, Cancan cried very rarely, and could be called a "tough guy" compared to Shen Jiazhou.
Shen Jiazhou looked down at Wen Shuqiao, cupped her face in his hands, kissed her, and then choked out, "I just feel sorry for you. You're not eating well and you're not living well."
Wen Shuqiao pinched his cheek and said gently, "I know, I know our Zhouzhou is a soft-hearted person. I'm eating well and living well now. Okay, okay, don't be sad. How can you be more sad than me, the person involved?"
Shen Jiazhou started burying his head in the sand again, clinging to people and crying incessantly.
Wen Shuqiao thought to herself, "Luckily, it was during one of her better periods. If it were back in her student days, Shen Jiazhou would probably have fainted."
When Can Can came out, she was so surprised that she circled around her uncle several times. Finally, she scratched her head and sat on the sofa to wait quietly.
He knew that his uncle sometimes liked to act cute. Oh dear, his uncle was clearly an adult, so why did he still like to act cute with his aunt? He wasn't a child anymore.
Can Can told her aunt that even if her uncle wasn't a child, he could still act cute towards her because they were husband and wife.
He didn't quite understand, but he did remember that he could act cute with his aunt, and his uncle could also act cute with his aunt. When his uncle acted cute, he would just sit quietly.
Wen Shuqiao naturally noticed that Cancan had come out. She patted Shen Jiazhou on the back and said, "Alright, alright, if you keep crying, Cancan will look down on you."
Shen Jiazhou gave a muffled "hmm," and said, "In the dream, you called me President Shen, but you called my assistant 'senior'..."
"I'm really fed up with you, Shen Jiazhou." Wen Shuqiao said helplessly, "You're crying while you're still jealous and complaining, aren't you?"
Shen Jiazhou nuzzled her neck with his head and said, "I didn't tell anyone, I was just saying."
The more he talked, the more guilty he felt.
Wen Shuqiao said, "My clothes are all soaked from your crying, can you please stop?"
Shen Jiazhou straightened up, looked at it, and then touched it with his hand; it was indeed a little damp.
He lowered his head guiltily and reached out to take Wen Shuqiao's hand: "You know, I couldn't help myself."
Shen Jiazhou also wanted to become stronger, but when he thought about how much Wen Shuqiao had suffered in places he couldn't see, especially since he had only heard about it before and Wen Shuqiao didn't like to reminisce about the past, but this time he really saw it.
And it just wouldn't stop.
Seeing that the second installment of the ostrich-like, clingy act was about to begin, Wen Shuqiao quickly called a halt: "I know you're feeling really bad right now, but can't you also feel sorry for your nephew? He's starving and his batteries are depleted. If we delay any longer, he'll have to eat out."
The hotel breakfast is served until 9:30. They already get up late, and if Shen Jiazhou lingers any longer, he can just check out and go find something to eat.
Shen Jiazhou then sniffed and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm wearing sunglasses..."
Wen Shuqiao exclaimed "Oh dear!" and patted his head twice: "Okay, go ahead."
Seeing that his uncle had finally stopped acting cute, Can Can went over and took Wen Shu Qiao's hand, saying, "I'm hungry."
Actually, he ate a small bread roll this morning, but he's still growing! He's hungry!
Wen Shuqiao squatted down and straightened his clothes: "After Uncle changes his clothes, we'll go eat."
Can Can glanced back at the bedroom, wrapped her arms around Wen Shu Qiao's neck, and whispered her opinion, "Next time, could you let Uncle act cute after you've eaten?"
Can a baby refuse to eat just because they're being affectionate?
Wen Shuqiao smiled and agreed: "Okay, Auntie will tell Uncle that our little baby is starving."
Can Can sighed, then tried to save face by saying, "Actually, I'm only a little hungry."
Wen Shuqiao felt that the uncle and nephew were really the same person, as if they were cut from the same mold.
Shen Jiazhou quickly changed his clothes and put on sunglasses to cover his disheveled appearance.
Although confused, Can Can was waiting for a delicious breakfast, so he grabbed Wen Shu Qiao's hand and rushed outside.
Shen Jiazhou walked slowly behind, watching Wen Shuqiao lead Can Can as they walked.
He secretly resolved that he would definitely take good care of Wen Shuqiao until she was plump and healthy! Her skinny, bony figure seemed to be right before his eyes.
The past cannot be retrieved; what matters most is the present.
After breakfast, Shen Jiazhou calmed down. They carried their luggage back to the car. Can Can and the cats and dogs sat in the back seat, while Wen Shuqiao sat in the passenger seat this time, chatting with Shen Jiazhou.
Shen Jiazhou looked at the beautiful scenery by the roadside, and then quickly glanced at the back seat through the rearview mirror. Can Can had already wrapped herself in a small blanket and fallen asleep in the back seat.
“That’s good too. We’re always on the road, seeing different scenery.” Shen Jiazhou took a deep breath: “When I retire, let’s drive around the world.”
Not now, he still has responsibilities. When Can Can grows up, those responsibilities will be his, and then he and Wen Shu Qiao can go wherever they want.
“Okay,” Wen Shuqiao said. “As long as our family is healthy and happy, we can go anywhere.”
This was also her first time running a family, but she was confident that she and Shen Jiazhou could take good care of their little family together, hand in hand, until their twilight years.
Wen Shuqiao reached out and gently placed her hand on his arm: "Jiazhou, I am really happy right now."
Shen Jiazhou glanced at him and nodded heavily, "I will work hard in the future and take on my responsibilities so that you and Cancan can be 100% happy."
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but smile, feeling 100% happy?
To be honest, the bickering between the uncle and nephew makes their happiness quite a "surprise".
