Chapter 8 Sugar-coated Bullet
After Wen Shuqiao bought the vegetables and milk, he squatted down and said to Cancan, "Canbao has been very good today. Auntie, can you give Canbao a toy as a reward?"
She bought some toys online for the little boy some time ago, but the little boy didn't seem to like them very much and didn't play with them much.
Wen Shuqiao took Cancan to the toy area: "Go find the toys you like."
Cancan held Wen Shuqiao's fingers tightly and refused to move. Wen Shuqiao squatted down and asked, "What's wrong?"
Canbao looked at the toys on the shelf, then turned his head to look at Wen Shuqiao and said, "Auntie, I don't want any toys."
These toys are very expensive!
When he was in the orphanage, he always saw the director's mother worrying about money, and he also observed these days that his aunt didn't seem to have much money!
Moreover, my aunt has to support him and cook delicious food for him, which has cost her a lot of money.
The system is in a complicated mood. Every time, the little boy's obedience always refreshes his cognition.
Wen Shuqiao asked patiently: "Why? What does the baby like?"
Canbao pouted but still told the reason: "After buying the toys, my aunt will have no money left."
Wen Shuqiao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect the little boy to be so perceptive.
She pinched the little boy's face and said, "Auntie is rich. Didn't that uncle give Auntie some money just now?"
The uncle just now did transfer some money to my aunt. Cancan is very smart and knows what the transfer is all about.
But he was still very conflicted.
The system spoke again: [Canbao, don’t you like that puzzle? ]
As soon as it finished speaking, Wen Shuqiao also said: "Doesn't Canbao like puzzles? How about you go get a puzzle yourself?"
The system was shocked. It didn't expect that the woman would notice this.
Although the little boy didn't play with any other toys, he completed all the simple puzzles she bought.
Cancan was moved at this moment, and Wen Shuqiao gently pushed him forward: "Go quickly, your aunt is waiting for you here."
This toy area is very large. Wen Shuqiao took a quick look at it just now. The puzzle is right in front and can be seen from this position.
Cancan was actually reluctant to leave her aunt, but when she met Wen Shuqiao's encouraging eyes, she took a deep breath and walked towards where the puzzle was.
Wen Shuqiao just did as she said, standing there. Cancan couldn't help but look back after taking two steps. After seeing his aunt waiting for him with a smile, he gradually relaxed a little.
He soon arrived at the puzzle area. Cancan looked at the beautiful patterns on it and asked, "Xitong, how much is this?"
No, the system didn't expect that the young man was looking for its help to ask for the price. It was silent for a moment before saying, "This is eighty-three."
Eighty-three, is it expensive or not?
Cancan asked again: [How many Red Grandpas do you want? ]
The system said: [One, and it’s still too much to spend. ]
Cancan thought for a moment: [It’s too expensive. I want half a grandfather.]
What half grandfather... The system said helplessly: [You want less than fifty, right? Go inside, everything outside is expensive. ]
Upon hearing this, Cancan turned his head and looked at Wen Shuqiao again.
Seeing that my aunt was looking down at her phone, I walked in with confidence.
With the help of the system, Cancan quickly found a puzzle that only required half of Grandpa's, and there were two of them! It was enough for him to play for a long time.
Cancan turned his head excitedly to see his aunt, but was horrified to find that his aunt was gone!
The system snorted: [Canbao, now you know I am not lying to you, right? This woman just gave you sugar-coated bullets from the beginning! And then she threw you away! ]
Cancan ran back hurriedly with the puzzle.
The system advised: [Canbao, she doesn't want you anymore, let's go find my uncle! My uncle can buy us a lot of puzzles! We can also eat a lot of delicious food, and also...]
"Auntie!"
Cancan ran over and threw herself on Wen Shuqiao's legs.
Wen Shuqiao's leg was bumped, and she almost lost control of the things in her hands. She lowered her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cancan raised his head, his eyes were red, as if he had suffered a great injustice.
Wen Shuqiao sighed and put the things she had just picked back on the shelf. She bent down and easily picked up the little boy: "Why are you crying for no reason?"
Cancan said: "I didn't see my aunt."
Wen Shuqiao reacted and said, "Auntie just saw that there were some digital cards, so she was going to get one for you."
She watched the little boy carefully selecting a puzzle. There happened to be some preschool education supplies on the shelf next to him, so she planned to teach the little boy some words and numbers.
This shelf is open at both ends, so the little boy can see him when he comes over.
Wen Shuqiao didn't expect that he had scared the little boy to tears, and he felt a little guilty. If he had known earlier, he would have waited for him to come back and picked them together.
She looked at the puzzle in the little boy's hand, and the expression on her face magnified: "Wow, Canbao took the puzzle by himself, so cool."
Cancan looked down at the puzzle. He held the puzzle with one hand and put his other hand around Wen Shuqiao's neck, burying his little face in her shoulder again.
Only in this way can he feel at ease.
Wen Shuqiao knew that the little boy was frightened at the moment, so she patted his back and said, "It's my aunt's fault. I apologize to you. I won't do this again next time."
The system looked at everything in surprise. This woman didn't leave?
Not only did she not leave, she also apologized to the little boy!
Oh my God, is this still that vicious woman!
The system couldn't quite figure out Wen Shuqiao, but it soon figured it out. This must be a sugar-coated bullet! She must want to be nice to the little boy first, and then sell him out when he trusts her wholeheartedly!
It must keep a close eye on her!
Cancan said: "Auntie has no apologies."
Wen Shuqiao smiled and said, "Then let's choose a number card, okay? After we choose, we can check out and go home."
Cancan only hummed. Children's emotions come and go quickly. Wen Shuqiao picked up the number cards again and asked, "Does Canbao like the flower cards or the animal cards?"
The two, one big and one small, were selecting very seriously, totally unaware that they were being photographed.

Lin Yan just took out his cell phone to check the gossip group when he saw that there were already more than 20 messages in the group.
He yawned and clicked in out of boredom to see what they were talking about.
This small group includes everyone except the boss.
Lin Yan flipped through the pages and found the first photo, which was sent by a colleague who had asked for leave.
[Wow, isn't this the fake daughter of the Su family? I didn't expect to meet her here, and she's holding a child. She actually has a child. Why haven't I heard of it before? ]
[The child looks like he is two years old, right? ]
[Two years old? The real and fake daughter case hadn’t happened yet, right? I didn’t hear that she was married at that time? ]
[Who knows? Maybe she found a new backer and became someone's stepmother? ]
[But she doesn't look like she has found a new backer, right? I met the eldest lady once before, and the scene she showed was very grand.]
[What do you mean by young lady? She is still a mother and a babysitter. She is young and has the capital to do so.]
[…What’s wrong with being a mother? You weren’t raised by your mother, you weren’t born by your mother?]
[What is the implication here? Even though she is a fake daughter, she is still a hundred times more noble than you. It's bad luck! ]
Seeing that the male colleague in the group who was attacked because of his two words fell silent, Lin Yan didn't care. He clicked on the photo and took a look.
It was indeed the fake daughter I saw that day. I didn’t see the face of the child in her arms the last time we met, but half of her face was revealed in this photo.
Still a pretty child.
Lin Yan thought to himself, I don’t know what the eldest young master’s child will look like, but considering the Shen family’s genes, it might be a beautiful child.
Lin Yan didn't think for too long before he received a message from Shen Jiazhou.
[Mr. A Chen: Come over. ]
Lin Yan put away his phone, immediately got up from the sofa, left the tea room and went to Shen Jiazhou's office.
“Boss Shen, you’re looking for me?”
Shen Jiazhou didn't even raise his head: "Kid, how are you?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Lin Yan's face. He said, "Boss, I've asked my brothers to look for it. It may take some time."
After hearing these words, Shen Jiazhou raised his head and looked at him.
His expression was very cold, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, but Lin Yan still felt a lot of pressure.
He hurriedly said: “Boss Shen should be able to get results in a few days, and we will be able to find the young master back soon.”
Shen Jiazhou did not answer, but just lowered his head and continued to read the unfinished document.
Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "Boss, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
He turned around, but his peripheral vision still caught a glimpse of Shen Jiazhou.
Just at this glance, I felt that Shen Jiazhou's profile seemed somewhat similar to the child held by the fake daughter in the photo.
Just when he was about to think deeply about it, his mind seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't think at all. The weird feeling made him quickly put the idea behind him. How could he think like that!
His boss is a clean man, where did the child come from? Besides, he has no connection with the fake daughter!
But, it does seem so.
Lin Yan couldn't help but look back again. Shen Jiazhou raised his eyes and said coldly, "What are you looking at?"
Lin Yan said: "No, nothing."
He was just thinking.
Judging from the boss's temper, if the little master comes back, will he really not scare people to tears?

Whether you will be scared or not will only be known in the future.
Canbao was sitting happily at the kitchen door at this moment, holding a Rubik's Cube in one hand and a big chicken leg in the other.
Wen Shuqiao bought some chicken legs and chicken wings in the supermarket today, and they had just braised a pot of them. Cancan couldn't help but drool at the smell.
This smells so good!
Canbao has never smelled such a delicious chicken leg!
Originally he wanted to soak it for a while longer so that it would have a better flavor, but Wen Shuqiao saw that he was swallowing his saliva, so he smiled and scooped some for him and told him to eat while he waited.
Cancan took it and took a bite. It was so delicious!
The system and Cancan can empathize with each other. He can also know what the taste of Cancan eating chicken legs is like.
You know what, it’s really delicious.
When did this woman become so good at cooking?
Canbao looked up at Wen Shuqiao who had his back to him.
Wen Shuqiao is currently contacting a netizen who sets up a stall to learn some advice from her. If possible, she hopes to start setting up the stall in the next two days.
Cancan looked at his aunt busying around. He took a bite of the chicken leg and asked: [What is aunt doing? ]
Ever since the system helped him pick out two puzzles that only required half of Grandpa Hong, Canbao obviously had a good attitude towards the system in his head.
The system explained: [This woman is asking about setting up a stall. She is going to make money.]
Canbao knows that money is important. With money, he can buy many things. He said: [Canbao also wants to make money. ]
The system snorted twice: [How much money can a little kid like you make? You can make a lot of money when you grow up. ]
Canbao sighed: [When will the baby grow up? ]
He wants to grow up quickly so that he can earn a lot of money for his aunt.
The system corrected: [You earn money to support your uncle. ]
As for this woman, she had already died by then.
