Chapter 212 The Fourth Young Master is Disliked (2)
"No problem." Everyone knew Xia Yu was very strict with Gu Can. If they told Xia Yu, it would be like walking into the lion’s den, so Shen Lingxing would never make such a foolish decision!
There was chocolate to eat, and mom wouldn’t find out! Gu Can was relieved and happy, immediately rolling up her sleeves and grabbing the dishcloth hanging on the side. She said energetically, "Fourth Uncle, let’s begin."
"Wait a minute, Fourth Uncle will get some hot water." Shen Lingxing also cherished Gu Can. The tap water was too cold, and he didn’t want to see Gu Can’s delicate little hands turn red from the cold.
"No hot water needed, Cancan isn’t afraid of the cold," Gu Can said boldly, embodying the image of a little tough girl.

Compared to them, it seemed like her only strength was eating. Although Gu Can didn’t really mind that she wasn’t as smart as her brothers and sisters, there were always moments of disappointment and frustration.
