Being held the sa way, Xia Yu had to put on a stern face in front of Gu Can, and so, compared to Gu Mosheng who was known as the "Black-faced God," Gu Can was even more in awe of Xia Yu.
"Auntie, Cancan wants to stay and play with you." Knowing it was useless to talk to her mom, Gu Can imdiately switched targets, pulling Mi Jing’s hand and shaking it while acting spoiled.
"Yu, let Cancan stay. I really like her, and I’m quite bored at ho. Having Cancan here can not only relieve my boredom but also I can teach her to paint. I think it’s great." Mi Jing really liked children, naturally, she was very supportive of Cancan staying. Having a cute child around had many benefits, like taking her out shopping would surely increase the return rate, it was just so cool and chic!
"Cancan is very mischievous. Leaving her here, I’m worried that you and Chen won’t be able to manage her." Xia Yu mainly didn’t want to trouble Mi Jing and Shen Lingxing.
"Mom, Cancan promises not to be mischievous at Auntie’s house!"
At this mont, Gu Can felt a bit aggrieved, thinking her mom was too an to her. Auntie had said she liked her, yet her mom still called her mischievous. But rembering the trouble she had caused before, she realized her mom’s words were not without reason, so she stood up straight and solemnly promised once again!
Gu Can’s attitude was firm, and Mi Jing was very willing to keep her, even Gu Yang and Xia Yao spoke for Gu Can. Having no choice, Xia Yu agreed, saying she would pack two or three sets of clothes and send them over with a driver. After that, she left with her two sons.
"Uncle, welco ho! Seeing Cancan, isn’t it a surprise?"
In the evening, Shen Lingxing returned ho on ti, but the one who greeted him at the door was not the lovely and sweet Mi Jing, but the cute Gu Can.
"Cancan, why are you still here? Where’s your mom?" Shen Lingxing raised his eyes, looking towards the living room, but didn’t see Xia Yu, Gu Yang, or Xia Yao’s figures. At noon, Shen Lingxing had received a call from Gu Yang through the ho phone, so he already knew Xia Yu had brought the kids over. However, before coming back, no one had told him that Gu Can stayed behind.
"Uncle, do you dislike Cancan staying here?" Facing Shen Lingxing’s unexcited reaction, Gu Can asked with a straight face.
"When did Uncle ever dislike you?" Shen Lingxing bent down, pinching Gu Can’s chubby cheeks and asked back.
"Liking before doesn’t an you’ll always like . Uncle, you didn’t smile when you saw Cancan, you must dislike Cancan now!" Gu Can looked up at Shen Lingxing, pouting.
"Haha, our Cancan is so cute, of course, Uncle always likes you, likes you very much." In fact, compared to the reserved Su Xiaoyan, Shen Lingxing indeed preferred the adorable Gu Can. After his words, Shen Lingxing picked Gu Can up, walked into the house, and asked, "Where’s Auntie?"
"Auntie is in the kitchen making dinner." Gu Can said in a childish voice, "Uncle, Cancan had a lot of fun with Auntie this afternoon, and Auntie even praised Cancan for being smart!" Saying the last sentence, Gu Can was so proud, wanting to tell everyone she knew that her Auntie praised her for being smart, so she was definitely not a dumbhead!
"So what did Cancan play with Auntie?" Shen Lingxing asked with great interest.
"Auntie taught Cancan to paint, and we also took Kabi downstairs to play."
Gu Can said enthusiastically. At this ti, Kabi, who was eating dog food, hearing its na ntioned, imdiately ran over, following Shen Lingxing’s footsteps and wagging its tail.
"Kabi, you go eat your food obediently, otherwise Cancan won’t like you." Gu Can imitated Xia Yu’s scolding tone, speaking to Kabi.
Woof woof —
Kabi walked ahead as it raised its head and barked at Gu Can twice. It was unclear whether it didn’t understand Gu Can’s words or it didn’t want to leave Shen Lingxing, so the delicious dog food was left cold in the bowl.
"Uncle, does Kabi dislike Cancan scolding it?" Gu Can interpreted Kabi’s barking as a protest and looked at Shen Lingxing with a furrowed brow, worried.
"Kabi is a dog, it can’t understand Cancan’s words, so it neither likes nor dislikes." Shen Lingxing explained.
"But Kabi understands Auntie’s words. Auntie tells it to sit, and it sits. Auntie tells it to stand up, and it stands up. Kabi is very smart! Why doesn’t it understand Cancan’s words?"
Was this the prelude to asking a hundred thousand whys?
With a smile on his lips, Shen Lingxing patiently answered, "Because Kabi has spent more ti with Auntie, so it can understand so very simple words."
"Then can Cancan take Kabi ho?" Gu Can had long had this idea, but since she hadn’t known Mi Jing for long, this sentence had always been bottled up inside. Facing Shen Lingxing who always pampered her, she finally voiced her expectation.
"No, Kabi belongs to Xuanxuan. It’s just being temporarily kept here for a few days, so it can’t be given to anyone. If Cancan likes puppies, Uncle can buy one for you, okay?" Shen Lingxing put his briefcase on the sofa and then carried Cancan towards the kitchen.
"Okay. Cancan wants a puppy like Kabi." Although Gu Can was only five years old, she already had the awareness of not taking away other people’s belongings. Despite liking Kabi very much and only having heard of Xuanxuan, a stranger to her, she accepted Shen Lingxing’s suggestion calmly.
"No problem. Uncle will find one tomorrow." Shen Lingxing agreed without hesitation.
"Wow, Uncle is the best. Cancan loves Uncle the most!" Gu Can expressed her joy very happily.
Didn’t you say Chen was the best, and Chen was the coolest last ti?
Shen Lingxing raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself that a child’s mind seed even more fickle than a woman’s!
"Help Cancan wash her hands, dinner’s ready." Hearing their conversation, Mi Jing looked back, smiling warmly at Shen Lingxing.
After speaking, Mi Jing turned back to continue cooking. Looking at her slender back, the smile on Shen Lingxing’s lips grew even wider.
"Uncle, are you lovestruck?" Gu Can asked innocently.
Upon hearing this, Mi Jing’s attention was instantly drawn. She turned around again to see Shen Lingxing’s handso face stiffen, his expression quite wonderful!
"Cancan, why do you ask if your uncle is lovestruck?" Mi Jing was more curious about Shen Lingxing’s supposed lovestruck behavior than why Cancan knew the term "lovestruck."
"Because Uncle secretly smiled at Auntie. Brother said, Cancan smiles at Fangfang because she’s lovestruck, so Cancan thinks Uncle is lovestruck too." Gu Can, with no ulterior motives, simply said what was on her mind, which made Shen Lingxing feel both funny and helpless.
