Chapter 96: A Beautiful Face
In the lobby on the first floor, Cancan leaned against her aunt's side, staring at the stairs. Why hasn't her uncle come down yet? The baby is sleepy!
He yawned deeply, but couldn't help it, and got into his aunt's arms: "Aunt~"
Wen Shuqiao hugged him and said, "We'll be home soon. Let's go to sleep when we get home."
Cancan nodded obediently, and he asked, "Auntie, can you tell the baby a story tonight?"
"Isn't it said every night?" Wen Shuqiao asked, "What story do you want to hear?"
Cancan pouted. What my aunt told me was not a story at all! It was an ancient poem! The baby listened and listened, but fell asleep before listening for long!
Wen Shuqiao knew what he was thinking just by looking at him. There was nothing she could do. She had been telling stories before, but most of the time Cancan became more and more energetic as she listened. She didn't fall asleep at all and wanted to hear another one after finishing one.
She was so sleepy that her eyelids were drooping, but he still had his eyes as wide as bells.
Later, she changed her approach and found some ancient poems. She just recited them randomly, but the effect was surprisingly good. Sometimes, he fell asleep before she finished reading a poem.
[No wonder you are always so rude.] The system suddenly realized what was going on. It was still puzzled, thinking that it had learned it from cartoons, but it didn't expect that it might have been taught by Wen Shuqiao.
But, isn’t this a poor teaching?!
Cancan said: [I didn’t remember! Why did you say aunt? ]
The system snorted: [Every time someone says something bad about her, you show up. Why don't you defend your uncle? ]
[But you didn't say anything bad about your uncle.] Cancan suddenly remembered something, and he said earnestly: [Also, system, you are wrong, your uncle doesn't want your baby's money, and he won't steal your baby's money.]
My uncle spends the money he earns on my baby!
The system wondered, when did he say such outrageous words?
But I soon remembered that it was this stupid pig who misunderstood at the beginning.
Cancan still wanted to retort that she was not a stupid pig, but her aunt’s smart baby!
Then I heard a voice enthusiastically say: "Hey! Baby~"
When Cancan heard this, she subconsciously turned her head to look at the door, and saw a person walking towards them very quickly with a terrifying smile on his face!
Cancan shrank into her aunt’s arms. What a scary giant uncle!
Wen Shuqiao noticed Cancan's fear, and she also looked at that person, who had already walked in front of them.
The system became happy in Cancan's mind: [Ah! It's Uncle Xingyuan! ]
She hugged Cancan tighter with caution: "Who are you?"
Gu Xingyuan looked at Wen Shuqiao, seeing her alert expression, and quickly explained: "I am Gu Xingyuan, don't get me wrong, I am Shen Jiazhou's childhood friend."
Wen Shuqiao remembered that when they entered the door, a waiter told Shen Jiazhou that Mr. Gu had returned, so the Mr. Gu they were talking about should be the person in front of them, right?
She thought back to the contents of the book. In addition to Shen Jiazhou, Shen Shiyue did have several uncles who treated him well. It seemed that the best one was called Gu Xingyuan?
But even so, Wen Shuqiao couldn't relax. She just said, "Mr. Shen went to get the key and will be down soon."
Gu Xingyuan sighed: "He brought the baby to my place without telling me?"
Then he asked again: "What about you? You again?"
"...Hello, Mr. Gu." Wen Shuqiao pursed his lips slightly: "I am Wen Shuqiao."
"Oh, it's Wen Shuqiao." Gu Xingyuan's eyes fell on her face. He paused for a moment, and his tone suddenly became higher: "Are you Wen Shuqiao?!"
Wen Shuqiao frowned. They had never met the original owner before, so why did Gu Xingyuan sound like he knew her?
Cancan was frightened by his loud voice and simply closed her eyes and stopped looking.
Terrible! Terrible uncle monster!
Uncle! Come and help!
The system said helplessly: [This is Uncle Xingyuan, he is very nice. ]
Cancan is now in a state of not paying any attention to what is happening outside.
Wen Shuqiao hugged him tighter, her frown still not relaxed, she said: "You scared him."
Gu Xingyuan finally reacted: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all Shen Jiazhou's fault for not letting us see the baby. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
He was just shocked, because he knew before that Cancan's aunt was Wen Shuqiao.
At that time, the matter of whether the Su family's daughter was real or fake was a hot topic in the circle. Naturally, they also heard some gossip and even took a look at Wen Shuqiao's photo. I don't know what others think.
Gu Xingyuan had a deep impression of Wen Shuqiao, but when he first saw him just now, he didn't recognize him at all because their temperaments were too different.
If the previous Wen Shuqiao had the temperament of a spoiled rich girl, the Wen Shuqiao in front of him was gentle and generous, and her face was very attractive even without heavy makeup.
You know what, this face is really beautiful.
Wen Shuqiao's frown deepened. She actually hated people looking at her appearance and clothes. It was okay for women, but it would be annoying if men stared at her like that.
Cancan opened her eyes quietly and saw her aunt's unhappy face.
Oh my god!!! My aunt was bullied!!!
Cancan was no longer afraid in an instant. He sat up from Wen Shuqiao's arms and struggled to get down again.
Wen Shuqiao took him off his lap and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cancan opened his arms, protected his aunt behind him, and said angrily: "Go away! You bad guy!"
Gu Xingyuan:?
Gu Xingyuan didn't even bother to look at Wen Shuqiao. He knelt on one knee and pointed at his face: "Baby, I'm Uncle Xingyuan. We've met before."
Cancan was about to cry, but when she thought about her aunt being bullied, she couldn't cry!
He is four years old today and an adult now. He must protect his aunt!
Cancan said: "Bad guy! Don't bully us!"
He clenched his fist and punched Gu Xingyuan in the head!
Gu Xingyuan didn't even have time to react, his eyes were fixed on the sandbag-sized fist that was swinging towards him.
Wen Shuqiao reacted quickly. She reached out and grabbed Cancan's wrist, stopping the sandbag-sized fist about a finger's distance away from Gu Xingyuan.
"...Huh." She breathed a sigh of relief.
[…Huh] The system also breathed a sigh of relief. It’s saved, it’s saved, Uncle Xingyuan’s beautiful face is saved!
But Gu Xingyuan in front of him was stunned. He blinked lightly and didn't react why he was about to be punched.
Wen Shuqiao quickly held Cancan on his lap and sat him down: "Okay, okay, baby, uncle didn't bully us, don't be afraid."
Cancan had exhausted all his courage and strength with that punch, but he still said aggrievedly: "Aunt~"
Wen Shuqiao patted his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
She raised her head and was about to explain to Gu Xingyuan, but she saw Shen Jiazhou at the stairs. She could not care about anything else. Wen Shuqiao hurriedly said, "Shen Jiazhou, Shen Jiazhou, Shen Jiazhou!"
She is losing control of the situation!
It was the first time that Shen Jiazhou heard Wen Shuqiao call him so urgently. He looked up and saw that the person kneeling on one knee in front of them also turned his head.
Gu Xingyuan's face was full of confusion.
He thought, he also needed a Shen Jiazhou.
Shen Jiazhou paused, and the sharp muscle in his brain straightened up a little. He had a bad premonition.
