It was already five minutes after they finished the phone call, but Zhou Yi still couldn't calm down, and the two sentences and sounds he just heard kept lingering in his ears.
He has experienced a lot, especially in the relationship between men and women, he is rich in experience.
But what happened just now was the first time - probably because most of the girlfriends he broke up with before had stopped contacting him, and he didn't care whether they were in love or not, and how they behaved.
Zheng Pianqing should be the most special one among these "predecessors".
She didn't mention the breakup, left without saying goodbye, gave birth to a daughter behind his back, and asked his daughter to call someone else "daddy". Now he saw this scene again.
No one knew better than Zhou Yi what kind of person Zheng Pianqing was before. He simply couldn't think about how many men she had gone through before she became what she is today. During this period, they didn't even say a word There was no formal "breakup" mentioned.
And Zheng Linxu - doesn't he like to take care of Zheng Pianqing very much. He checked on her almost every day at first, but now Zheng Pianqing is good to others, so he doesn't care about her anymore.
Zhou Yi knew that since Zheng Pianqian chose to leave without saying goodbye, there must be his reasons for it. Her actions and words showed that she was very insecure.
Zhou Yi also knew that he was not qualified to accuse Zheng Pianqing of anything. He even had no position to be jealous.
But he couldn't control that feeling. He had to go and ask her face to face.
Zhou Yi sat on the sofa and couldn't calm down for a long time. Finally he got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. But even a cold shower with more than ten degrees Celsius couldn't calm him down. When he closed his eyes and rinsed his hair, something came to his mind. screen.
——
In the latter half of the night, Zheng Pianqian's drunkenness had subsided by more than half and she was sober.
When Qin Lie saw the look in her eyes, he knew that she was over her drunken state, "Shall I take you back?"
Zheng Pianqian shook her head, "I won't go back tonight."
Qin Lie: "Okay, then have a good rest tonight."
He completely respected her wishes, and he had just asked her if she wanted to go back because he was also considering the situation at her home.
Qin Lie covered Zheng Pianqing with the quilt and raised his hand to fix her hair, "Good night."
Qin Lie lay down next to Zheng Pian Ting. As soon as he reached the bed, Zheng Pian Ting turned over and leaned into his arms, as if seeking support.
Qin Lie hugged her naturally, "Is it cold?"
Zheng Pianqing shook her head, closed her eyes and said, "I have been thinking about how to explain to Sansan that the father she thinks is actually her uncle."
"I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it." Although Sansan is really a very optimistic child, this kind of truth is still too "heavy" for her, which is equivalent to destroying the family understanding she has established in the previous five years. .
Qin Lie patted Zheng Pianqing's shoulder, pondered for a moment, and then asked her: "Then what do you think is unacceptable to Sansan?"
Zheng Pianqing was silent.
She seemed to have only considered the level at which she would accept it, without thinking about the specifics.
Qin Lie: "I guess what she can't accept is losing the person she has been calling 'Dad' in the past few years."
"I think you can try another way of expressing it to let her know that the father she considers will still be by her side in the future and get along with her as before. They are also really related by blood. Apart from changing their names, Except for that, there are no other changes." Qin Lie's voice was slow and low, and well-founded, "Although I have never gotten along with Sansan, we can see from the last time we met that she is a cheerful and smart child, so you have to trust her."
Qin Lie's words made Zheng Pianqing gradually calm down, and her tense muscles relaxed a lot.
Apart from her family, this was the first time she experienced this feeling of "peace of mind" with someone who had no blood relationship with her.
"Qin Lie," she called his name in a low voice, "I'm really lucky to know you."
Qin Lie was slightly stunned when he heard Zheng Pianqing's words - he and Zheng Pianqing had known each other for more than four years, and this was the first time she had said such words to him.
When they had been dating for half a year, Zheng Pianqian had never expressed this kind of emotion to him. At that time, she had not completely opened herself up, and Qin Lie could understand this.
Later, they entered into an open relationship again. Zheng Pianqing became more proactive towards him and would share some trivial matters in life with him from time to time. He could sense that she was unloading her burden little by little.
Now, she said this to him herself.
Qin Lie was happy not only because he got her emotional feedback, but also because he was relieved that she finally found herself.
"I'm very lucky too." Qin Lie kissed her forehead, "I'll hold you to sleep, good night."
Zheng Pianqian later fell asleep in Qin Lie's arms. She slept soundly, breathing evenly, and her whole body was relaxed.
Qin Lie stared at her sleeping face for a while, then gently closed the quilt.
——
The next morning, after Zheng Pianqian and Qin Lie got up, they went to the hotel restaurant to have breakfast together.
Qin Lie and Zheng Pianqian have known each other for many years, and he already knows her taste preferences well. He doesn't need Zheng Pianqian to do anything. He has already chosen a breakfast that suits her taste.
When the two were sitting facing each other for breakfast, Zheng Pianqian received a call from Sansan.
She didn't go back last night. Sansan came here to ask about this matter. From what I heard on the phone, she seemed a little unhappy.
Zheng Pianqing was not good at coaxing others. Sansan had never had any trouble with her before. She was a little overwhelmed when she heard her act like this.
I had no choice but to ask her: "Sansan, what can I do to make you feel better?"
"Well... Zhuzhu said, you have to eat sweets when you are in a bad mood." Sansan's tone suddenly became brighter, completely gone from the awkward and angry state just now, "Mom, you can exchange it for five donuts. My forgiveness~"
At this point, Zheng Pianqing realized that she seemed to have been tricked by her.
"Five is too many," she and Sansan discussed. "If I buy you so many, your father will be unhappy... Can I buy three?"
Sansan agreed without saying a word: "Okay! Then I'll wait for you, mom!"
Qin Lie didn't hear much of what Sansan said, but he heard Zheng Pianqing's words clearly, "What are you going to buy?"
Zheng Pianqing put down her phone and said, "Donuts."
Qin Lie: "Shall I accompany you? I have no other plans today."
Zheng Pianqing agreed. She took a look at the time and said, "You have to go quickly, the queue at that store is too big."
——
In the corner of the hotel restaurant, Zhou Yi watched Zheng Pianqing and Qin Lie get up after eating, and followed them, taking the elevator on the other side and going downstairs.
Their car was parked opposite his parking space. Zhou Yi went around to the back and got into the car. After the car started, he stepped on the accelerator again to follow.
He laughed to himself.
This is my first time doing such a boring thing.
