Chapter 411: Growing Taller
An An quickly ran up to them, and he and Can Can hugged each other tightly, then said, "You didn't come yesterday, I missed you so much."
Cancan also hugged him tightly: "I miss you, An'an, too."
An An said: "Yesterday I learned a new dance with other children. I will teach you later."
Cancan nodded: "Okay, let's dance together."
The two children bonded, and An An went to see Wen Shuqiao again, her eyes sparkling: "Aunt! I miss you too, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
Wen Shuqiao bent down and touched his head: "Auntie misses you too. I haven't seen you for a long time. I feel like you have grown taller."
An An raised her chin proudly: "I eat well every day, and I am taller than Can Can."
Wen Shuqiao took a look and found that An An was indeed a little more outgoing than Can Can.
Cancan was not convinced, so he quickly said, "I will be taller than you tomorrow."
He is taller than An An!
An An said: "Then I will be taller than you the day after tomorrow!"
Cancan was unhappy: "Then I will be taller than you the day after tomorrow!"
Seeing that the two kids were about to quarrel over height, Wen Shuqiao said, "Can we go to the classroom together?"
She stretched out her hands, and Cancan and Anan forgot about comparing their heights. They happily held hands with Wen Shuqiao and walked to the classroom together.
An An asked, "Aunt, is it fun for you to go out and play with my uncle?"
"It's fun. My aunt also bought some gifts. I'll pick you up this weekend. Would you like to come to my house and play?" Wen Shuqiao said, "Cancan and I will pick you up together."
"Sure, sure!" An An was of course willing: "Then can you take me and Can Can to go play with sister Fei Fei? I miss sister Fei Fei too."
Cancan also nodded: "Of course! Let's take my sister to the park to play on the slide!"
"Sure! You can come to my house and play on the slide!"
The two kids discussed with each other and decided on their weekend itinerary, and I just happened to send them to the door.
Perhaps because they were already used to going to school, when they arrived at the door, Cancan said goodbye to Wen Shuqiao and Shen Jiazhou, and then chatted with An An and walked into the classroom hand in hand.
Shen Jiazhou stood behind Wen Shuqiao, and the two of them were about to take their seats. The two children were quite popular, and as soon as they got to their seats, other children came to play with them.
But most of them are still looking for An An and Can Can as well.
Shen Jiazhou retracted his gaze: "Let's go."
Wen Shuqiao nodded, and the two of them prepared to go to the monitoring room to take a look.
Shen Jiazhou had already greeted the dean, so as soon as he entered the monitoring room, the security guard pulled up the surveillance footage from Cancan's class and asked them to sit nearby and watch.
Wen Shuqiao whispered, "It's not An An."
Shen Jiazhou hummed: "Let's take a look."
The two of them couldn't sleep last night, and speculated on how Yue would react when he sank.
Especially his reaction when seeing Shen Jiazhou was definitely different from his reaction when seeing other people.
An An just greeted Shen Jiazhou and didn't pay much attention to him.
This reaction should not be.
Wen Shuqiao sat in the chair and sighed heavily.
Shen Jiazhou stood behind her, put his hand on her shoulder, and relaxed her shoulder for her: "There is still time, look for it slowly."
Wen Shuqiao also patted the back of his hand: "You go to work, I will go back after I take a look."
Shen Jiazhou has a regular meeting this morning, and he will be late if he doesn't leave now.
Shen Jiazhou hummed: "I will also pay close attention to them."
The two looked at each other and saw worry and comfort in each other's eyes.
There is still time, you can always find it.

Wen Shuqiao and Shen Jiazhou have met almost everyone Cancan knows these days, and even made a video call to Yu Mingxue who is far away abroad.
But unfortunately, I still didn't find any clues.
From the day the limited-time task was released, time became like a hole in an hourglass, and the sand leaked out in the blink of an eye.
It's the fifth day.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere at home was a little solemn that even Cancan noticed that something was wrong with his uncle and aunt.
In the evening, he was held in his aunt's arms and sat on the sofa. His favorite cartoons were playing on TV, but he had no interest in watching them.
He raised his hand and played with his aunt's face with his soft fingers.
After a while, my uncle also came out of the shower.
He sat next to his aunt and looked at himself.
Cancan couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Aunt, Uncle, is our family going to run out of money?"
Wen Shuqiao asked in confusion: "Why do you ask that?"
Cancan said: "You are all unhappy."
He secretly asked An An what would make adults unhappy.
An An said that if the family ran out of money, the adults would be unhappy, because without money, they would not have a good life and would only be able to eat tasteless vegetables every day and would not be able to eat meat.
But An An also said that if his family ran out of money, An An could ask his father to give him some money so that he could buy meat.
Cancan made up her mind and whispered, "Aunt and uncle, don't be unhappy. As long as our family is together, I am willing to eat vegetables."
He didn't want An An's father's money either. When he grew up, he would be able to earn money to buy meat for his aunt and uncle.
After realizing what Cancan said, the two adults felt soft-hearted.
Wen Shuqiao said: "We have money at home, so we don't need the baby to eat only vegetables. Of course, if the baby is willing to eat vegetables, that would be great."
Cancan was a little confused: "Really?"
Shen Jiazhou chuckled: "Are you questioning your uncle's ability?"
Cake was originally lying on the ground, but after hearing these words, he raised his head and rubbed Shen Jiazhou's feet on the ground.
Shen Jiazhou looked down and said, "Look, even Cake believes in my uncle's ability. Don't say such things in the future!"
Cancan was relieved. He said, "That's great. We don't have to eat vegetables every day. I will also tell An'an tomorrow that I don't want his mom and dad's money."
"...No wonder." Shen Jiazhou was a little speechless.
Wen Shuqiao turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shen Jiazhou's tone was a little more helpless: "Xie Chuying and I have a project to cooperate on. Although it is still in the investigation stage, it is almost finalized. Xie Chuying called me yesterday and asked me if there was a problem and whether the project could be successfully implemented."
He thought Xie Chuying was up to something yesterday, but it turned out that it was all his own child's doing behind the scenes.
After hearing this, Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but want to laugh: "You should call Sister Chu Ying to explain."
"Let's talk about it after we meet. We were supposed to meet for a meeting in two days anyway." Shen Jiazhou couldn't help himself and stretched out his hand to pinch Cancan's nose: "Don't talk nonsense outside, understand."
Cancan uttered an "oh" in a muffled voice, and asked, "Then why are you unhappy?"
He really couldn't figure it out.
The two adults just looked at each other and didn't speak for a while.
