Chapter 225 Same Age
Cancan finished taking a shower and lay on the bed, covered with his own blanket and quilt. He was very energetic at the moment and looked at Wen Shuqiao who was sitting beside the bed.
Wen Shuqiao was looking for the unfinished story for him. He asked a little listlessly, "Aunt, do I still have to go to kindergarten tomorrow?"
Wen Shuqiao put down the storybook, looked at Cancan and asked, "What's wrong, baby?"
Cancan climbed up from the bed, holding her blanket in one hand, took a few steps, and then opened her arms to her aunt.
Wen Shuqiao held him horizontally in his arms and wrapped his blanket around him. After doing all this, he said softly, "You are already a big boy, you still need your aunt to hold you."
Cancan pursed her lips and hummed aggrievedly: "I just want my aunt to hug me."
Wen Shuqiao pinched his nose, then rocked him gently: "Okay, Auntie will coax the baby to sleep."
Cancan's mouth was still curled up unhappily, and he said, "Auntie, I don't really want to go to kindergarten to play."
"Isn't kindergarten fun?" Wen Shuqiao asked, "I watched the video that Teacher Lili sent. Your courses are very rich."
The last time Wen Shuqiao went there, she felt a little depressed. She always felt that the children there were not very lively. But after Cancan went there today, she found that it was actually quite good. Each class in Xiao Taiyang Private School is supervised by at least four teachers, and there are also some roles similar to nannies, so she can rest assured about safety.
The food looks very delicious and healthy.
That feeling of depression disappeared instantly.
Cancan stretched out his hands, pinched his aunt's earlobe with one hand, and played with his aunt's long hair that fell on him with the other hand, without saying a word.
Wen Shuqiao didn't ask him any more, but continued to shake him slowly. Cancan said after a while, "It's fun, but auntie, you and uncle can't come in and play with me."
Isn't it the family's job to play together? Although kindergarten seems to be quite fun, it would be incomplete without my aunt and uncle.
"My aunt and uncle have to go to work." Wen Shuqiao said, "Everyone has their own things to do. Going to kindergarten is what you have to do, and my uncle and I have work to do. When we finish our tasks, we can meet."
She said, "And you have a phone watch. If you miss us, you can call us during the break."
Cancan buried her face in her arms, not really wanting to listen to what her aunt said.
Wen Shuqiao didn't say anything else. He rocked Cancan gently and coaxed him to sleep.
After Shen Jiazhou cleaned up the bathroom and came out, he just happened to see her smiling at Cancan with her head down.
Because it was time to go to sleep, only a night light was turned on in the child's room. The soft light fell on the woman's body, as if she was coated with a layer of golden light.
He stood there, his originally calm heart felt "strange" again, but he didn't want to look away.
Suddenly, the person sitting in the light turned around and looked at him. The smile on her face had not yet disappeared. She asked softly, "Jia Zhou, what are you doing standing there?"
Jia Zhou.
When he heard Wen Shuqiao calling his name, he remembered the little accident in the afternoon. His arms pressed his clothes tightly against his lower back, as if he wanted to burn his lower back.
He came to his senses, walked towards her, glanced at the sleepy Cancan in her arms, took another step forward, and tidied up the slightly messy quilt.
When I turned around again, Wen Shuqiao had already stood up from the chair holding Cancan.
Cancan's weight and height have increased a lot recently, and it can be seen that Wen Shuqiao is having some difficulty holding her.
He reached out and carefully passed his arm under Cancan, taking him from Wen Shuqiao.
Because of this action, the two of them were particularly close, and Shen Jiazhou smelled the incense again. It was the same smell as his own, but it gave people a different feeling.
He pursed his thin lips and lowered his eyes, daring only to look at Cancan's sleeping face.
After Shen Jiazhou took Cancan, Wen Shuqiao walked to the bed and lifted the quilt to make it easier for Shen Jiazhou to put Cancan on the bed.
She stood to one side, watching Shen Jiazhou bend one leg, press his knee against the edge of the bed, press his upper body down, and constantly adjust his arms, finally placing Cancan steadily in the middle of the bed.
Wen Shuqiao was originally looking at Cancan, but as he looked, his gaze involuntarily fell on Shen Jiazhou.
Because of the "aftermath" in the bathroom, his sleeves were rolled up at his elbows, and the veins on his forearms were slightly bulging from the effort. The dim light shone on him, and an unknown atmosphere was spreading.
Shen Jiazhou's appearance is also one of the best. Maybe he is more relaxed at home. During the day, his elite look fades a little, but he looks more youthful.
How old is he this year?
Wen Shuqiao was distracted for a moment, he should be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight?
After Shen Jiazhou covered Cancan with the quilt, he stood up and put down his legs that were on the bed. He turned his head and was about to signal Wen Shuqiao to go out and talk, but he caught her looking at him in a daze for a moment.
My heart in my chest was beating wildly, as if it was out of control.
Shen Jiazhou didn't understand why his heart was beating so wildly tonight.
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Jiazhou asked.
Wen Shuqiao came back to her senses. She subconsciously uttered an ambiguous murmur, and then replied in a low voice: "Nothing, let's go out first."
I’m afraid of waking Cancan up later.
Shen Jiazhou nodded and pulled up the guardrail beside the bed. This was installed in the last few days to prevent Cancan from falling to the ground in the middle of the night.
After they made sure that Cancan was covered with the quilt, they walked out of the children's room together.
After closing the door, Shen Jiazhou said in a normal tone: "Nothing on your mind? Then you stare at me, do you think I'm pretty?"
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "You are good-looking. I didn't say you are not good-looking."
Shen Jiazhou snorted twice, and Wen Shuqiao said, "I was just wondering how old you are."
"A man's age is a secret." Shen Jiazhou said, "Please exchange."
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help laughing. Shen Jiazhou crossed his arms and tilted his head slightly: "What are you laughing at?"
"I just feel that you are like two different people now and when I first knew you." Wen Shuqiao's eyes were curved with smile.
Shen Jiazhou felt a little uncomfortable, but couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "So, tell me, who is better, the me before or the me now?"
"They are all good." Wen Shuqiao said, "They are all you, why do we have to rank them high and low, good and bad?"
The corners of Shen Jiazhou's mouth curled up, and he said, "Can talk."
Wen Shuqiao said: "So you..."
"According to their saying, after the New Year, it's the 27th." Shen Jiazhou was a little melancholy: "Time flies so fast."
In the blink of an eye, he is already twenty-seven.
He asked back, "What about you?"
Wen Shuqiao said, "I will be twenty-seven too."
Shen Jiazhou became interested and asked, "So we are from the same year? When is your birthday?"
Her birthday?
Wen Shuqiao was actually not sure when he was born. His birthday in his previous life was the day the dean’s mother took him in.
"March 20th." Wen Shuqiao asked, "What about you?"
Shen Jiazhou made a two with his hands, and the smile on his face became more genuine: "Just right, I'm one month older than you, I'm February 16th."
"What's there to be happy about?" Wen Shuqiao didn't quite understand why he suddenly became happy: "We are the same age, there is no difference between older and younger."
Shen Jiazhou took his hand back: "Of course we have to break up. In my eyes, you are a child now."
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but laugh, and said, "Okay, I'm so happy. I can finally be a child again. Sir, please check the doors and windows. I'm going upstairs to sleep, because we children need to go to bed early and get up early and not stay up late."
After saying that, both of them couldn't help but lower their heads and laugh foolishly.
Shen Jiazhou didn't know what had happened to him, his shoulders were shaking with laughter: "Wen Shuqiao, what are you doing?"
“Isn’t this just to answer your question?” Wen Shuqiao held his face with both hands and patted it with his fingers: “Although it’s a bit strange, try not to let your words fall to the ground.”
Shen Jiazhou raised his head, the lights in his eyes were like stars, he said: "Thank you, it's really great that you didn't embarrass me."
Wen Shuqiao also tilted his head: "You're welcome."
After calming down, Wen Shuqiao said, "I won't talk to you anymore. I have to get up early tomorrow. I'll go upstairs first. Good night."
Shen Jiazhou's eyes were still like crescent moons. He hummed, "Good night."
He watched Wen Shuqiao go upstairs, and only after his back was out of sight did he follow Wen Shuqiao's instructions to check the doors and windows.
In fact, Wen Shuqiao had already checked it. Shen Jiazhou stood by the stairs, raised his head and looked upstairs, but he didn't even notice that the smile on his face deepened.
