Chapter 17: Isn’t it normal to have a few cannon fodders?
Shen Jiazhou was not as excited as Lin Yan. He put the notebook aside and said, "Go check it out."
Before you make a decision, you should be cautious. If you are not careful, you may be accused of kidnapping a child, which will be very troublesome.
Moreover, Shen Jiazhou didn’t see the child’s face just now, nor did he see it last time in the hospital.
But if it is really Cancan, he will take the child back no matter what.
Lin Yan's excitement also cooled down a little. He nodded and said, "Okay, boss. I just asked. Miss Su came here to get her dress. It looks like she will also attend the welcoming banquet tomorrow."
Tomorrow?
Shen Jiazhou hummed: "Got it."
Lin Yan started the car and asked, "Boss, should we go back to the company now or take you home?"
Shen Jiazhou picked up the notebook again: "Company."

Wen Shuqiao took Canbao back home. Cancan's emotions stabilized a lot after he got in the car, and he walked back by himself after getting off.
She walked towards the closet. She had not purchased any clothes since coming to this world. She wore all the clothes that belonged to the original owner. She picked out a set of casual clothes. The temperature would be a little low tomorrow, and this set would be comfortable and warm.
"Aunt." Canbao came over wearing his dinosaur slippers and holding a puzzle in his hand.
Wen Shuqiao turned his head and glanced at him: "What's wrong, Canbao?"
Cancan walked up to her and opened his arms towards her. Wen Shuqiao bent down and picked him up as if he was in the right place.
Cancan said: "Aunt, let's do the puzzle together."
Wen Shuqiao pinched his little face and said, "Okay, but auntie has something to ask you."
Cancan nodded, and Wen Shuqiao asked as he walked out with him in his arms, "Baby, why did you say that others were ordering food in the store?"
Chanbao's mother probably never taught him, let alone in the orphanage.
So how did Chanbao know?
The system in Cancan's brain was completely shut down by anger. He looked at Wen Shuqiao and said, "Xi...brother said so."
He couldn't say Xitong's name in front of Wen Shuqiao, and could only say the word "brother".
elder brother?
As far as she knew, the little boy didn't have a brother either.
She thought about it and thought that it was probably when he was in the orphanage that some nice older children taught him, but the little boy's brain could only remember the two words "serve the dish".
Wen Shuqiao didn't ask any more questions. He carried the little boy to the sofa, only to see the little boy pick up the digital card again.
He pointed to the numbers and said, "My brother taught me."
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "It seems that this brother is really amazing. He can teach Canbao so many things."
Canbao nodded, then shook his head: "Brother, fierce."
Xitong is always mean to him, he is a bad guy!
But teaching Canbao to learn is a good thing!
But it still said that my aunt was a bad person!
Cancan thought about it for a long time, but finally decided that Xitong was a bad guy.
The newly launched system:
I was so angry that I went offline without saying a word.
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help laughing: "Really? Then if Canbao learns faster, brother won't be so fierce."
As for kids, it’s really frustrating when they’re studying.
Cancan nodded confusedly. Is that so?
But whatever my aunt said was right, so he nodded and said happily, "Okay!"
Wen Shuqiao played puzzle with him for a while, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he took Canbao out again.
After all, I promised him that I would take him to eat barbecue.
It was the first time for the little boy to eat such meat. His eyes narrowed with satisfaction. In the end, he had a round belly and walked out of the store holding his aunt's hand.
Wen Shuqiao held his hand and walked slowly. It was a little cold at night in City A, but they were dressed warmly and didn't feel it at all.
She raised her head slightly. The moon was very bright tonight, and there were stars dotted on it.
This seemed to be the first time she had seen such a night sky since she came into this world.
Canbao also looked up at the sky like his aunt did, and said, "The round moon."
Wen Shuqiao looked down and chuckled, "And Canbao's round belly."
The little boy covered his belly with his other hand and smiled shyly, but in his heart he retorted a little, the baby's belly is not round!

Seven o'clock in the evening, a five-star hotel in City A.
Wen Shuqiao took Cancan out of the taxi. She looked up at the magnificent hotel and thought that Su Sisi's welcoming party was really luxurious.
They saw the signboard at the door, and Wen Shuqiao led Canbao in. Someone led them to the banquet hall the whole time.
The banquet officially began at 7:30. There were already quite a few people in the banquet hall. From their clothes, you could tell that they were either rich or noble.
Wen Shuqiao also made preparations before coming. He searched for photos of Qu Lan and Su's father on the Internet to avoid not recognizing them when the time comes.
But she looked around and didn't see anyone anywhere.
Cancan was shy to begin with. When she came in and saw so many people, she was so scared that she hid behind Wen Shuqiao again. She hugged Wen Shuqiao's leg with one hand and looked at the people in the banquet hall with her round eyes.
Wen Shuqiao patted his head soothingly: "Didn't Canbao want to come? Why are you scared?"
Canbao didn't know there were so many people at the party! Xitong didn't tell him!
Wen Shuqiao looked around and found a seat in a corner. She took Canbao's hand and walked over to sit down. She also brought him a few pieces of cake and juice and placed them in front of him.
Cancan looked at the cake and swallowed, but still held Wen Shuqiao's hand tightly.
The system couldn't help but say: [How can you be so timid! Not Long Aotian at all! Not at all...]
The system didn't say anything else, probably because it was angered by his behavior.
Cancan didn't know what Long Aotian was, he said softly: [Brother Xitong, you've been so fierce recently. ]
[…I didn’t.] The system silently refuted.
In fact, one can still hear some guilt in his words. He knows that he is angry. His uncle was so close to them yesterday, but just because Canbao failed to recognize his relatives, anyone would be angry, right?
Cancan coaxed: [Okay, brother Xitong, don’t be angry. Auntie said that children who get angry easily are not good children.]
[You should listen to that woman.] The system snorted: [Since you called me brother today, I won’t bother with you about what happened yesterday.]
Cancan said "oh" obediently, and the system said: [My uncle will come over later. According to this woman and your status, you probably won't be able to squeeze through. But you have to find a way to let my uncle see you, okay? ]
Cancan didn't reply, he just ate the cake in silence.
[Don’t pretend you didn’t hear it!] The system said: [Don’t try that on me!]
It discovered very early on that if what was said was not what Cancan wanted to hear, he would pretend not to hear or understand, but in fact he understood everything!
The system didn’t understand. The uncle was so nice, why didn’t he want to go back to the Shen family?
"Hey, isn't this our Shu Qiao? Why are you sitting in this corner today? Why are you dressed so simply today?"
Wen Shuqiao was wiping the cream off Canbao's mouth. When she heard someone calling her name, she turned her head to look over.
One step away from them, there were two girls in evening gowns with delicate makeup on their faces. It was obvious at a glance that they were dressed up carefully.
Wen Shuqiao nodded slightly: "Hello."
The original owner had these two people in his memory. They seemed to be little followers who had always followed the original owner, but their relationship could not be said to be good, nor bad. Their families both had projects cooperating with the Su family.
The person who was speaking didn't expect Wen Shuqiao to greet them so calmly. The words he had prepared were stuck in his mouth, and he felt uncomfortable.
Cancan looked at them several times and asked the system: [Who are these two aunts? ]
The system said coldly: [Not important, just cannon fodder. ]
In a novel, isn't it normal to have a few inexplicable cannon fodder?
