Chapter 311: Long-awaited, Nice to Meet You
Wen Shuqiao didn't stop, she didn't even look at Shen Jiazhou, she just replied: "Why are you asking this?"
Shen Jiazhou pinched Cancan's palm. The fleshy feel of her hand coupled with the fact that he was already a little nervous at the moment, made him increase his strength.
Cancan frowned and said, "Uncle, you pinched my hand and it hurts."
Shen Jiazhou coughed lightly, and then said more softly: "I didn't use any force."
Then he said to Wen Shuqiao, "Just chatting. Isn't this a good time to talk about marriage?"
Wen Shuqiao said: "I haven't thought about it."
Shen Jiazhou blinked: "Do you feel like you haven't met him?"
"No." Wen Shuqiao denied, "I just haven't thought about it. I may get married in a flash, or I may not get married at all. It depends on the person."
"Flash marriage." Shen Jiazhou pondered for a moment: "Aren't you afraid that the other party is a big-tailed wolf with a human face and a beastly heart?"
Then I thought, a quick marriage is not impossible.
"I'm afraid." Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "But the other party is a good person, and I like him. Isn't a flash marriage a happy ending?"
Shen Jiazhou said "oh" and stretched out the last syllable. He didn't ask any more questions. No one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
The three of them entered the store. The store was heated and much warmer than outside. Cancan was already familiar with the place. She greeted the front desk and was about to go up to the private room when she heard a very surprised voice: "Cancan!"
Cancan looked in the direction of the voice, and his eyes lit up instantly: "An An!"
The two children ran towards each other quickly, holding hands, and jumping around like little rabbits.
Wen Shuqiao was also a little surprised to see An An. She walked over and An An happily said, "Aunt! Happy New Year!"
Wen Shuqiao touched his head and said, "Happy New Year, An'an."
Shen Jiazhou also followed. He and An An had never met properly, but he had seen An An's photos and videos.
An An held Can Can's hand. He looked at Shen Jiazhou curiously, then looked at Can Can, and asked, "Can Can, is this your father?"
But how come he remembered that Cancan's father had passed away? Why did this uncle look so much like Cancan?
"No." Cancan explained: "This is my uncle, my father's younger brother."
"Oh!" An An nodded: "I see! Happy New Year, uncle!"
Shen Jiazhou smiled and said, "Hello, An An."
Then I heard An An say, "Your uncle can really be your aunt's boyfriend. He's so handsome!"
Cancan raised her chin proudly: "Yes, yes, my uncle is my aunt's boyfriend, he's handsome!"
Shen Jiazhou's eyes widened, and he looked at Wen Shuqiao and quickly explained: "I didn't teach him that. I never taught him to say that."
Wen Shuqiao was also very surprised why Cancan and Anan said that, and before he could react he heard Shen Jiazhou's crazy explanation.
She gave a helpless smile: "I know, there must be some misunderstanding here."
Shen Jiazhou muttered, "Isn't this misunderstanding too wonderful?"
Wen Shuqiao turned his head and looked at him: "What?"
Shen Jiazhou coughed lightly: "Nothing."
But the ears turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Wen Shuqiao glanced at his ears and retracted her gaze. She focused her attention on An An: "Who did you come with? Why are you alone in the hall?"
An An said, "I'm here with my mom and uncle! Mom is ordering food in the private room, so I came out to pee and see if my uncle has parked the car."
Unexpectedly, I ran into his best friend Cancan! So happy!
Wen Shuqiao hummed: "Do you want me to send a message to ask if your uncle has come in?"
An An was about to say yes, but she saw Xie Jingbei coming in from the door.
He waved his hand: "Uncle! I'm here."
Xie Jingbei was originally looking down at his phone. When he heard An An's voice, he raised his head and met Wen Shuqiao's gaze.
He was stunned for a moment, and then the expression on his face seemed to melt and become gentle, but he soon noticed the stern-faced man next to Wen Shuqiao.
Xie Jingbei raised his hand and pushed the half-frame glasses on his nose. A barely perceptible emotion flashed across his narrow eyes under the lenses. After putting his hand down, he still smiled gently.
He walked over quickly and said, "Shu Qiao, Happy New Year. I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Thank you, Teacher. Happy New Year." After Wen Shuqiao greeted him, he looked at Cancan.
Cancan greeted politely: "Happy New Year, Uncle Anan."
Xie Jingbei smiled and touched his head: "Uncle didn't bring a New Year's red envelope this time, can I give it to you next time we meet?"
Wen Shuqiao said: "Teacher Xie, you don't have to be so polite. I didn't bring a New Year's red envelope for An An."
Xie Jingbei said: "The child is just having fun."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Shen Jiazhou and took the initiative to extend his hand: "Mr. Shen, I have heard a lot about you. Happy New Year."
Shen Jiazhou looked at the hand raised in the air, and stretched out his own hand, with a polite smile on his face as he usually did when meeting clients: "Mr. Xie, nice to meet you, and Happy New Year."
Both of them were smiling, but for some reason, Wen Shuqiao always felt that they were a little strange, and it could be seen from their smiles - they both looked so forced.
