Shen Jiazhou knew very well that things were not as peaceful as they appeared on the surface; various factions within the company were secretly fighting each other to the death.
He always turns a blind eye; as long as the dance doesn't happen in front of him, he pretends he knows nothing.
But these people don't just fight each other; there are definitely many more people on his radar.
Everyone in the company knows that Cancan has been coming and going from his office these days, but only Xiao Miao and Lin Yan know the whole truth. They are his confidants and naturally wouldn't talk nonsense.
But once he leaves, there will probably be many more people looking for Wen Shuqiao.
Wen Shuqiao pursed her lips. If she remembered correctly, in the novel, after Shen Shiyue returned to the Shen family, everyone in the family treated him kindly, and there were no messy incidents. But hearing Shen Jiazhou's words, she sensed something different.
Shen Jiazhou said slowly, "You don't need to worry. They might not even come looking for you. I just wanted to remind you of something."
Wen Shuqiao turned to look at him: "Do members of the Shen family know that Cancan exists?"
Shen Jiazhou said, "Knowing is one thing, knowing who he is is another."
Wen Shuqiao was a little confused.
Shen Jiazhou sighed softly: "The Shen family's affairs are very complicated and cannot be explained in a few words. That's why I didn't take Cancan back to recognize Shen Jiachen immediately."
Initially, he planned to bring the Shen family along once he found someone, but after seeing how happy and content Can Can was with Wen Shu Qiao, his thoughts changed.
He fell silent, and Wen Shuqiao nodded: "Okay, I know what to do."
Shen Jiazhou was somewhat surprised: "You...aren't you going to ask?"
If it were anyone else, they would have already asked why, but Wen Shuqiao didn't seem to have much curiosity.
Wen Shuqiao said, "I've never heard you stammer like this before."
From the day they met, they automatically found a way to get along, speaking their minds directly. Recently, as they've become a little more familiar with each other, there's even less need for them to be coy.
We're all adults; even if some things aren't explicitly stated, we both understand each other's meaning.
This was the first time Shen Jiazhou had spoken, and he only said a sentence or two. The rest of his words were either things he hadn't finished dealing with or things that involved private matters that he couldn't tell her.
Why should she bother asking?
Shen Jiazhou suddenly chuckled, lifted Cancan up a little, and said, "Wen Shuqiao, you're quite interesting."
Wen Shuqiao shrugged: "It's alright, you're quite interesting too."
The two of them smiled knowingly.
Back in the car, Wen Shuqiao held Cancan in her arms. Cancan sensed the change in her sleeping position, groggily opened her eyes, and seeing Wen Shuqiao holding her, she sweetly and affectionately said, "Auntie~"
Wen Shuqiao gently patted his side: "Go to sleep, your aunt is here."
Can Can closed her eyes and mumbled, "Two cakes..."
"Auntie remembers," Wen Shuqiao replied. "When the baby wakes up later, he'll see two little cakes."
Smelling the familiar scent, Cancan fell asleep again.
Shen Jiazhou glanced at the rearview mirror and a slight smile appeared on his lips: "Two cakes?"
"One strawberry and one mango. Let's stop at the cake shop later and buy two palm-sized cakes, plus two candles, that'll be enough." Wen Shuqiao hugged him tighter: "He can't eat much anyway."
Shen Jiazhou said, "No need, I'll have the restaurant prepare it."
Wen Shuqiao nodded slightly, indicating that he could do as he pleased.
This time, Shen Jiazhou drove them through a maze of turns back to the city center and stopped outside an alley.
Can Can was awake now, but still dazed. He clung to Wen Shu Qiao and wouldn't let go. Even when Shen Jia Zhou stood outside the car and reached out to hug him, he stared at him for a while before realizing that the person in front of him was his uncle.
Shen Jiazhou hugged him: "Did you sleep so much you went silly?"
Can Can buried her face in his shoulder; the baby wasn't sleeping too much!
He just had a dream where his parents came to celebrate his birthday, and he didn't realize it at first!
Shen Jiazhou carried him and said to Wen Shuqiao as they walked, "My friend has a share in this private restaurant. If you and Cancan want to eat anything in the future, you can just come over and mention my name."
It was only a two- or three-minute walk from the entrance of the alley where the car was parked to the inside of the alley. Wen Shuqiao slightly raised her head to look at the sign.
"Delicious restaurants"
This name is really quite random.
Shen Jiazhou carried Cancan inside first. The receptionist recognized Shen Jiazhou and said, "Mr. Shen, your private room is ready. It's an elegant room on the second floor."
Shen Jiazhou hummed in agreement, then glanced at Wen Shuqiao and said, "Let's go."
Wen Shuqiao nodded, but before they left, the receptionist said again, "By the way, Mr. Shen, Mr. Gu and his group also booked a private room today. Should we let them know you're here?"
Shen Jiazhou thought for a moment and said, "No need."
When they arrive, they can practically lift the roof off.
Shen Jiazhou led them up to the second floor. Wen Shuqiao looked around the restaurant, which was decorated in a rather elegant and unique style.
Their elegant room was located on the innermost side of the second floor.
As soon as you push open the door, the cozy atmosphere inside is immediately apparent.
Can Can had been awake for a while, but she was lying lazily on her uncle's shoulder and didn't want to move. But now that they were in the private room, she couldn't wait to get down.
Shen Jiazhou said, "Be more steady."
Can Can retorted, "I'm not heavy, Uncle. If you say I'm fat again, I'm really going to get angry."
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "Uncle wasn't saying you're fat, he was just telling you to slow down so you don't fall."
Shen Jiazhou raised an eyebrow: "Oh, so your way of getting angry is to stop talking about baby?"
He had noticed it long ago: Cancan rarely used "baby" to refer to herself in front of Lin Yan and others, but in front of him, Wen Shuqiao, and Miao Yi, she always called him "baby, baby."
Don't think he doesn't know this kid is being cute!
Can Can pretended not to hear her uncle's words. Uncle, you big bad guy!
However, he quickly forgot about his uncle being a bad guy and became obsessed with all sorts of balloons, toys, and a Superman suit in his room!
Can Can couldn't wait to walk over to the Superman armor, put her hands in her pockets, and looked at it from the left and right.
Shen Jiazhou chuckled, seeing his hesitant expression as he wanted to touch it, and walked over, saying, "Stop looking, this dress is yours."
Can Can's eyes lit up.
Uncle, are you saying that this super cool and super handsome armor suit belongs to the baby?
OMG! Shen Shiyue! Transform! The super-duper brave cosmic superhero!
