Chapter 381 Making a Wish
Shen Jiazhou arrived home ten minutes earlier than expected.
As soon as he entered the room, he was stopped by Cancan who had been waiting for a long time. Cancan raised his hand and waited for Shen Jiazhou to hug him.
Shen Jiazhou took a deep breath and had to stop looking for Wen Shuqiao. He put the suitcase aside, bent down and picked him up: "Baby."
Cancan held his face and kissed him several times, then hugged his neck and rubbed it: "I miss you so much, uncle, do you miss me?"
"I miss you." Shen Jiazhou adjusted his posture, and when he sat in his arms, he carried Cancan in one hand and the suitcase in the other, and walked inside from the entrance: "Where's my aunt?"
Cancan replied: "My aunt is taking a shower. She just played games with me."
Shen Jiazhou uttered an "oh" sound. He wanted to put Cancan down and go back to the master bedroom, but Cancan didn't want to. She wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and her legs around his waist, and her whole body was hanging on Shen Jiazhou.
He said, "I just want you to hug me, uncle, you don't know how much I miss you."
Shen Jiazhou patted his back and said, "I don't know if you want to or not, but you're almost strangling me to death, loosen up a bit."
Cancan then let go of him and held his face with both hands, saying with a little distress: "Uncle, you seem to have become uglier. Did you not eat and sleep well?"
Before Shen Jiazhou could come out of Cancan's warmth and affection, he suddenly heard his caring words.
Thank you, I appreciate your kindness.
Shen Jiazhou couldn't help but pat his butt: "Who's ugly?"
Cancan kissed his face again, then buried her face in his pocket and laughed.
"You little brat." Shen Jiazhou said, "I haven't dealt with you for three days, so you start to tear the roof off the house, right?"
What's so ugly about him? What's so ugly about him?
He always says things that he doesn't like to hear. Cancan has inherited his sharp tongue from Shen Jiachen. Both father and son are the same.
Cancan refused to get off him, so he had no choice but to hold him on the sofa to strengthen the uncle-nephew relationship. In fact, his heart had already flown to Wen Shuqiao.
Fortunately, maybe God heard his prayers, but in less than five minutes, Wen Shuqiao came out of the master bedroom.
She was a little surprised to see Shen Jiazhou: "You're here so soon?"
Shen Jiazhou directly "lifted" the clingy Cancan from his body to the sofa, then stood up quickly and rushed towards Wen Shuqiao.
Cancan was so fast that she didn't even have time to react. When she turned her head again, her uncle had already hugged her aunt tightly.
Wen Shuqiao was hugged tightly by him. Due to inertia, he took a step back, and then immediately reached out and hugged his waist tightly.
Shen Jiazhou buried his face in her shoulder and took a few deep breaths through his nose. The boredom of the past two days finally dissipated a little. His tone was a little aggrieved: "I miss you so much."
Wen Shuqiao touched the back of his head: "I miss you too."
Shen Jiazhou tightened his arms again, wishing that the two of them could merge into one.
Cancan also came over in slippers. He hugged his arms, raised his head and said unhappily: "Uncle! Am I still your baby?"
Wen Shuqiao looked down with a smile, and patted Shen Jiazhou on the back: "Hurry up and hug your baby, he's getting angry."
"Don't worry about him." Shen Jiazhou whispered in Wen Shuqiao's ear: "You are also my baby."
It doesn't matter which baby you hold.
Wen Shuqiao pinched the back of his neck: "Okay, are you hungry?"
Shen Jiazhou muttered, "I'm not hungry. I ate dinner before getting on the bus."
Wen Shuqiao pushed him away. Shen Jiazhou wanted to hug her, but Wen Shuqiao made a stop gesture: "Since you are not hungry, go take a bath. It's already half past eleven. Cancan has not slept in order to wait for you. I will go and coax him to sleep."
Shen Jiazhou thought about it carefully. It was indeed very late, and he had coaxed Cancan to sleep. From now on, it would be just him and Wen Shuqiao's world of two. It was very pleasant just thinking about it.
He kissed Wen Shuqiao and said, "Okay! I'll go take a shower."
Cancan quickly raised his face: "What about me? Uncle? What about me?"
Shen Jiazhou bent down and kissed him on the face: "I haven't forgotten you, little darling. There are new toys in the suitcase. Go to bed early and you can play with them tomorrow."
Cancan hummed, and then asked: "Can't I play for a while now? Uncle, I'm not sleepy at all now."
"No." Shen Jiazhou kissed him on the other side of his face again: "Go to bed with Auntie."
Cancan had no choice but to agree, let's watch it tomorrow! Hehe! Anyway, tomorrow will be here soon.
Shen Jiazhou stood up and looked at Wen Shuqiao again. Wen Shuqiao stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of his mouth: "Go quickly, we'll talk later."
Shen Jiazhou felt itchy and decided that he must kiss Wen Shuqiao hard later to make up for the moments he missed in the past two days!
The three of them entered the master bedroom together. Cancan looked at his uncle very attentively as he took his pajamas into the bathroom, and said, "Uncle, you have to accompany me to the interest class tomorrow! I'll play the erhu for you!"
Shen Jiazhou placed his hand on the door handle and said helplessly, "Okay, okay, uncle knows, you should go to bed."
Cancan's eyes sparkled: "Okay!"
Wen Shuqiao urged, "Take a shower quickly and close the door. I will take him to bed."
When Shen Jiazhou met Cancan's sparkling eyes, he didn't dare to delay any longer and closed the door immediately.
This was the first time I wanted Cancan to fall asleep immediately.
After closing the door, Wen Shuqiao lowered his head and looked at Cancan. Cancan couldn't help laughing, but when she saw her aunt making a hushing gesture, she quickly covered her mouth tightly.
Wen Shuqiao touched his head and said, "Let's go."
Cancan took Wen Shuqiao's hand and quickly left the master bedroom.
After taking a shower, Shen Jiazhou put a dry towel on his head and rubbed it vigorously twice, then took out a hair dryer and blew his hair dry. Then he put his face in front of the mirror and looked at it carefully.
What's wrong with him?
I just feel a little haggard because I worked overtime these two days. I'll be fine after applying some "preservative".
Shen Jiazhou slapped his face hard. It was all the kid's fault. He made him a little anxious about his appearance.
After cleaning the bathroom, Shen Jiazhou opened the bathroom door and walked out.
The light in the master bedroom was turned off. I guess Wen Shuqiao turned it off when he went out just now.
Fortunately, the curtains were not drawn tightly, and some light came in. With the help of the light from the bathroom, I walked towards the bed in my slippers. Just as I approached the head of the bed and reached out to turn on the light, I heard a short click.
Shen Jiazhou subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound, but was stunned the next second.
There was only a faint light at the door of the master bedroom, which illuminated the person standing there.
The candle flame flickered, and Shen Jiazhou blinked twice.
Watching Wen Shuqiao and Cancan slowly walking towards him, the candlelight came from far away and came into his eyes.
Cancan said happily: "Uncle! Happy birthday to you!"
Wen Shuqiao also had a smile on his face: "Happy birthday, Zhou Zhou."
It wasn't just the two of them, milk and cake were also following them.
Wen Shuqiao took the birthday hat on Cancan's head and raised his hand to put it on Shen Jiazhou's head.
Shen Jiazhou lowered his eyes and stared blankly at the candle that was still lit.
So it’s…his birthday already?
Seeing him staring at the candle without moving, Wen Shuqiao urged him in a low voice: "Make a wish quickly, or the candle will burn out."
He came back to his senses when he heard Wen Shuqiao's urging.
Cancan also said happily: "Yes, yes, uncle, please make a wish quickly!"
Shen Jiazhou squatted down, and Wen Shuqiao followed suit. She helped hold the cake tray, and both of them looked at him with smiles.
"My first wish..." Shen Jiazhou's voice was a little hoarse: "I hope Cancan can grow up happily and safely."
Cancan said: "Uncle, you have to make a wish!"
Shen Jiazhou looked at him and chuckled: "This is my uncle's first wish."
Cake circled around his feet twice, and finally rubbed his calf affectionately with its head.
Shen Jiazhou lowered his hand, scratched the chin of the cake, took a deep breath, and continued: "The second wish is that our family can be together in health and happiness."
He looked at Wen Shuqiao, his eyes softened: "The third wish..."
Wen Shuqiao made a hushing gesture and said, "Just keep the third wish in your heart."
Shen Jiazhou nodded, closed his eyes, and made his third wish seriously.
The third wish, he hopes...
Wen Shuqiao can always get what he wants.
