Zhou Li heard some information from Zhou Yi's words: "Have you reconciled?"
The people asking were Zhou Yi and Zheng Pianqing.
Zhou Yi on the other end of the phone smiled briefly: "We have never broken up."
Zhou Li: "That's not what Zheng Linxu said."
Zhou Yi: "It won't do any good to insert a knife into me. I will help you to deal with the Zheng family."
Zhou Li: "I'll fly over at night."
After talking to Zhou Yi on the phone, Zhou Li immediately bought a ticket to fly to Hong Kong City that night.
Zhou Li returned to Yushuiwan and packed his luggage before going to the airport.
——
The Zheng family's ancestral home in Hong Kong City is in the center of the old city. Zheng Pianxi has not been back for many years, and everything at home seems so familiar.
Sansan returned to her ancestral home for the first time after she was born, and she was very curious about everything in the mansion.
When Zheng Pianqing was taking Sansan to look at the koi in the pond, there was a sound of footsteps behind her.
Zheng Pianqing turned around and looked over, meeting Zhou Yi's smiling peach blossom eyes.
Zhou Yi: "I'll come and have a meal tonight. Second lady, you don't mind, right?"
Zheng Pianqing: "It's up to you."
She had no intention of continuing the conversation with Zhou Yi, and turned around to watch the koi with Sansan.
Sansan: "Wow, mom, look at that one, it's so fat!"
Sansan grew up in New York, and it was rare to see koi. The big and fat koi made her drool: "Mom, can I catch it for cooking?"
Zheng Pianqing: "..."
Sansan's thinking was too out-of-the-box, and Zheng Pianqing often couldn't keep up with her.
Zhou Yi: "Sansan, do you want to eat fish?"
"Hey, Uncle Handsome, why are you here too?" Sansan noticed Zhou Yi coming after hearing the voice, and was a little surprised.
Zhou Yi: "Uncle missed your mother, so he came here."
Sansan: "Oh... okay."
Sansan glanced at Zheng Pianying secretly. Her mother's expressionless look didn't seem to miss Uncle Zhou.
What is said in the TV series is true, there is a mountain between men and women.
Zhou Yi: "Sansan, do you want to eat fish? I can cook it."
The little greedy cat's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Really, I want to eat braised fish."
Zhou Yi: "No problem."
Zheng Pianqian frowned slightly as she listened to the conversation between one large and one small child. She didn't remember that Zhou Yi knew how to cook.
Zhou Yi glanced at Zheng Pianqing and said to Sansan, "But your mother must agree."
Sansan immediately went to hold Zheng Pianqing's hand: "Mom, can you let uncle stay and be a fish to eat?"
Zheng Pianqing: "..."
Very few people can refuse Sansan's coquettishness. After being teased by her, Zheng Pianying could only reluctantly leave Zhou Yi to finish cooking.
It was unrealistic to eat koi in the pond, so the housekeeper went to the nearby seafood market to buy freshly killed fish.
Sansan was very curious about the cooking process and took Zheng Pianying to the kitchen to watch.
Zhou Yi wore an apron and was busy in front of the stove, chopping vegetables and garnishing them very skillfully.
Zheng Pianqing remembered that he didn't know how to cook before. It seemed that he had learned new skills in recent years.
Zhou Yi successfully captured Sansan's heart with a plate of braised fish, so much so that when he wanted to leave later, Sansan was reluctant to let him go.
Zheng Pianqing: "Sansan, no outsiders are allowed to live in the house."
Sansan: "Okay...but I still want to eat the fish cooked by Uncle Zhou."
Zhou Yi glanced at Zheng Pianqing and said with a smile: "No problem, let's make an agreement. Let your mother take me out later, and I will come back to cook fish for you tomorrow."
Sansan: "Wow! Really! Mom, go see Uncle Zhou off. He is a guest, so we have to be polite."
Zheng Pianqing: "..."
There were some things that were difficult to say in front of Sansan, so Zheng Pianqian sent Zhou Yi out personally.
The two stopped in front of the old house, and Zheng Pianying turned around to go back.
week
Yi grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms with a smile.
Zheng Pian frowned, her rejection clear.
Zhou Yi raised his other hand and touched her eyebrows, gently and dotingly: "It's been more than a month, and you still have this attitude towards me."
Zheng Pianqing: "We have broken up."
Zhou Yi: "I don't agree."
Zheng Pianqing: "So you want to tell me that you have made so many girlfriends without breaking up with me?"
It's hard not to be angry when faced with Zhou Yi's words.
Zhou Yi: "Are you jealous, honey?"
Zheng Pianqing: "There is no need. Let's keep our distance. I won't object if you want to visit your daughter. That's it."
Zhou Yi: "My daughter has never called me daddy."
Zheng Pianqing: "That's not necessary."
Zhou Yi: "Then why do you think it's necessary to ask him to call you uncle, father, and your mother? You might think there's some sibling scandal in your Zheng family."
Zheng Pianqing: "It's not your turn to worry."
——
In the early morning, Zhou Li's flight landed at Gangcheng International Airport.
Zhou Li dragged his suitcase and met Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi looked at Zhou Li's tired and lonely face and joked: "It seems that I have been frustrated a lot by Jiang Mingzhu recently."
Zhou Li: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."
Zhou Yi: "Have you had dinner? Let's have a drink together?"
Zhou Li: "Not interested."
Because of this "not interested", Zhou Yi did not take Zhou Li out to eat. After returning to the hotel, he asked the housekeeping department to bring some food and had a midnight snack in Zhou Li's room.
Zhou Yi: "How are you and Jiang Mingzhu doing now? I heard that her adoptive mother went there with a psychiatrist. How is her condition?"
After talking about this matter, Zhou Li's face became darker.
He picked up the mineral water next to him and drank almost half of the bottle. His Adam's apple rolled violently and his eyes gradually turned red.
Zhou Yi guessed from Zhou Li's reaction that Jiang Mingzhu's condition was not good: "Has the doctor given a treatment plan?"
Zhou Li: "Her illness is not getting better."
Zhou Yi's face turned serious: "What do you mean you're not feeling better?"
Zhou Li took a few more sips of water before he found his voice and repeated to Zhou Yi what He Chuyan had said to him before.
Zhou Yi's expression became more and more complicated.
Especially after hearing about Jiang Mingzhu's complicated feelings for Pei Yegu and He Chuyan's plan to find Yuanye to "replace"——
Zhou Yi: "Jiang Mingzhu is so capable that he can even deceive doctors?"
Zhou Li: "She just wants revenge."
Zhou Yi has read countless people, and has seen many extreme people, but not many to Jiang Mingzhu's level.
Zhou Li: "I don't know what to do."
He said these words very weakly, and now it seemed that he had no other choice but to look at Yuanye and "rescue" Jiang Mingzhu.
Jiang Mingzhu will not be happy when she sees him, and he is not even qualified to appear in front of her.
Zhou Yi, who had always been resourceful, also fell into a long silence.
Almost ten minutes later, Zhou Yi suddenly said: "There is a way you can try."
Zhou Li: "What?"
Zhou Yi: "Take her to investigate together."
Zhou Li: "No."
He refused without thinking. The risk was too high, and neither he nor Zheng Linxu wanted Jiang Mingzhu to get involved.
Of course Zhou Yi knows Zhou Li's worries: "This is the best way. At least in this process you can get along as equals. She is so smart, I don't think she will put herself in danger."
