Chapter 67 is the secret between us.



Shen Jiazhou's eyelids had been twitching ever since he entered the conference room. It wasn't until he received a message from Wen Shuqiao that he understood why his eyelids were twitching so badly.

Can Can actually ran upstairs by herself! No wonder when he left, the kiss on his cheek was much stronger than usual; she was feeling guilty.

He frowned slightly and replied, "I understand."

Lin Yan, standing to the side, asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"

Shen Jiazhou snapped out of his daze: "It's nothing."

I was just intimidated by a little brat.

After arranging all the dishes neatly, Wen Shuqiao noticed that Shen Jiazhou had replied to her message. She glanced at it, turned her head to talk to Can Can, but saw him holding a chicken wing and gnawing on it very seriously. He seemed to notice Wen Shuqiao's gaze, turned his head slightly, and then stretched out his clean hand to make a heart shape with his fingers for Wen Shuqiao.

"I wonder where he learned that," Wen Shuqiao thought to herself. "What a conceited brat."

Can Can had no idea that in his beloved aunt's eyes, he had already gone from a little piglet to a stinky brat. Right now, he was seriously eating chicken wings, and as he gnawed away, the system could eat too.

He asked, "Is it good, System?"

The system lazily replied: "It's alright, not as good as steak. Let your uncle take you to get steak! We need to go to the restaurant on Wangfeng Street, otherwise it won't be good."

Can Can snorted. Where is this again? He's not going anywhere. The chicken legs and wings his aunt gave him are still the best!

But while eating, Can Can asked, "System, why are you in the baby's head?"

Actually, Can Can asked this question at the beginning, but at that time the system only said that he would understand when he grew up. Now that the baby has passed his fourth birthday, he can be considered grown up!

The system turned off empathy, and the code flickered: [Why are you asking again?]

[Feeling strange.] Cancan said, [And what were you doing before? You didn't tell me.]

He thought to himself, "The system has always been so mysterious, coming and going as it pleases. Does it think this is a hotel for me?"

[I can hear you... Where did you learn that? Don't say that.] The system felt a headache coming on: [You're still young, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. You'll understand when you grow up.]

【I don't understand, but I can talk to my aunt, and I'll understand as soon as she tells me】Cancan finished the last bite of chicken wing, then got up and went to the trash can, throwing the bones and gloves in.

[Don't tell your aunt.] The system became serious: [Not even your uncle. My existence is a secret between us.]

Can Can grabbed a tissue and wiped her mouth clean before returning to her little stool: "Why?"

The system thought for a moment and said, "[If you tell your aunt or uncle, they'll just think you're out of your mind, take you to the hospital, and open your head!]"

Can Can touched her head, which was covered in thick hair, and thought, "I need to open my head!"

The system continued: "We'll also send you to a lab to study you. Then you won't be able to see your uncle, and you certainly won't be able to see your aunt either."

Okay, that's terrifying!

The system pressed its advantage: "Therefore, you absolutely, positively must not reveal your existence!"

Can Can nodded cautiously, then made a request: "Then you can't speak ill of Auntie."

The system code flickered a few times: 【I didn't say anything bad about her.】

"You said it," Can Can said firmly, "If you ever speak ill of Auntie again, you can leave. I won't want you anymore."

Even if he's away for a long time, he won't secretly think about the system anymore!

The system had mixed feelings, but Can Can was very firm on this point; if it didn't agree, it would really throw a tantrum.

He knows that temper all too well.

The system watched Wen Shuqiao's busy figure through Cancan's eyes, and to be honest, this woman was indeed different.

Putting everything else aside, just having the courage to do this kind of work is enough to impress anyone.

Moreover, her skillful movements didn't resemble those of a pampered young lady who never lifted a finger; rather, they seemed more like those of an ordinary person with a stable personality, struggling to make a living.

Can Can was also watching Wen Shu Qiao's retreating figure. He still rested his head on his hands, his eyes crinkling into crescent moons. He said to the system, "Mom's back and Aunt's back look so alike."

Although the scenes are different, the busy figures are the same.

When the baby is hungry, the mother will also make him delicious steamed egg custard and tasty meat in the kitchen.

The system did not respond.

Can Can lowered her head and took the photo out of her pocket again, touching Shen Jiachen's face with her fingers. If only her father were here.

Dad can do what the younger uncle and aunt do: cook delicious food for the baby and play with the baby.

"System, do you have a mom and dad?" Can Can asked in confusion.

The system's tone was somewhat stiff: "No, I'm just a string of code."

CanCan said: "Doesn't code have a mom and dad?"

"Whose code has parents?" the system said helplessly. "You wouldn't understand even if I told you."

Can Can hummed in response: "Do you have an aunt?"

"...I don't really want to." The system made a face in his mind: "Just kidding!"

Can Can wasn't scared at all; instead, she commented: "[Childish!]"

Who's being childish here? The system grumbled.

But then she heard Cancan say, "Then my uncle and aunt are also your uncle and aunt, okay?"

The system remained silent for a while before muttering softly: "[Who wants your uncle and aunt?]"

Who cares?

Can Can remained silent, so the system said, "[Okay, okay, I can't do anything with you. I promise I won't scold your aunt anymore.]"

"Be good to your aunt." Can Can added, "Your aunt works very hard raising the baby, making milk and cakes for him."

System: 【...You talk too much.】

This sentence was returned to the stinky baby verbatim!
