Zheng Linxu used to dislike Zhou Yi's playful smile, but now after experiencing so many things, she can't tolerate him anymore: "Do you still want to stay in New York?"
Zhou Yi smiled even more: "I should ask Mr. Zheng if he still wants to find out the story behind that kidney."
While talking, Zhou Yi never forgot to observe Zheng Linxu's expression.
Sure enough, when he heard the key word "that kidney", Zheng Linxu's brows wrinkled slightly, and his expression became a little more questioning.
Seeing this, Zhou Yi continued: "Let's go, Mr. Zheng, let's talk about business."
Zheng Linxu stood still. He never forgot why he came today: "Where is the person?"
Zhou Yi said calmly: "Mr. Zheng, you don't have to worry so much. She is the mother of my child. I won't do anything to her."
Zheng Linxu was silent, without replying, and stared at him closely.
Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows slightly towards Zheng Linxu: "Mr. Zheng didn't expect me to know so soon, right?"
Zheng Linxu answered the question unreasonably: "Pianying's decision to keep the child has nothing to do with you. Her sister and I made this choice because we were afraid of causing labor damage to her body. Sansan's custody rights are not yours."
Zheng Linxu was not surprised that Zhou Yi knew Sansan's identity. When they met in the restaurant that day and Zhou Yi came up to talk to Sansan, Zheng Linxu knew that such a day would come sooner or later.
Zheng Linxu didn't know that Zhou Yi had checked Sansan's age, simply because Sansan and Zhou Yi looked so similar.
Zhou Yi, a man with such a shrewd mind, must have guessed the whole story at a glance.
Zhou Yi heard these familiar words and smiled: "As expected of good brothers and sisters, they all said the same thing. So, does the child know that he was almost killed by you?"
Zheng Linxu heard a bit of sullenness, ridicule, and dissatisfaction in Zhou Yi's words, as if he was the victim.
The aura around Zheng Linxu suddenly became a little colder, and his patience was basically exhausted. "Are you going to let him go? Don't wait for me to take action."
Zhou Yi answered the question: "Mr. Zheng, let's go upstairs and talk about business first. After we finish talking, I will let her go back with you."
Zheng Linxu didn't have much trust in what Zhou Yi said, and still looked at him with suspicion. It wasn't until Zhou Yi made a few more promises that Zheng Linxu went to the study with him.
After entering the study, Zhou Yi's expression became much more serious. He discussed the important evidence and clues compiled by Zhou Li with Zheng Lin one by one.
Because the topic shifted to other things, the tense atmosphere between the two disappeared.
Although Zhou Yi usually likes to joke, he is still very serious when talking about serious matters.
After chatting for almost half an hour, Zhou Yi put forward the proposal to investigate with Zheng Linxu on behalf of Zhou Li. After weighing it, Zheng Linxu agreed to the proposal, and the negotiation was considered over.
After chatting, Zheng Linxu turned around and left.
Zhou Yi stopped him and said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, after being my daughter's father for so long, it's time for her to meet me as her biological father."
Zheng Linxu did not respond to his words, but Zhou Yi could completely read the answer from his silence.
Zheng Linxu didn't want him to be involved in the child's life, and he didn't even want their father and daughter to meet.
When Zhou Yi was about to continue speaking, Zheng Linxu said to him: "There is no need."
This sentence directly made Zhou Yi laugh out loud, "Isn't it necessary? As a biological father, it is not necessary for me to see the child. So what does Mr. Zheng think is necessary?"
Zheng Linxu couldn't stand his confident tone: "What have you done for her?"
Zhou Yi: "Good question."
He clapped his hands, "Mr. Zheng took her away without saying a word and there was no news at all. Did you tell me about her pregnancy? I didn't know I was a father until the child was five years old. Even in front of the child I can’t even see you, what can I do?”
Although Zhou Yizai tried his best to restrain himself, he still got a little excited when he mentioned Zheng Pianqing's leaving without saying goodbye - especially after witnessing Zheng Pianqing being intimate with another man.
Zheng Linxu glanced at Zhou Yi coldly, feeling that he was hopeless, and had no intention of communicating with him about what happened back then. People like Zhou Yi would never feel that they had done anything wrong.
Zheng Pianqian finally got over that incident, and he would never give Zhou Yi another chance to disrupt her life.
"Where is Pian Ping?" Zheng Lin said, "Just because I promised you to cooperate doesn't mean you can harass her in the future and stay away from her."
Zhou Yi: "Mr. Zheng has forgotten that she and I never officially talked about breaking up back then."
He reminded with a half-smile, but did not continue to make things difficult. He walked forward, opened the door of the study, took Zheng Linxu to the master bedroom, turned the key and opened the door.
As soon as the door to the master bedroom opened, Zheng Pianqing walked out.
She barely glanced at Zhou Yi, and passed him directly to Zheng Linxu, grabbing his sleeve with her hand, "Brother."
"It's okay." Zheng Linxu patted the back of Zheng Pianqing's hand.
His eyes roamed Zheng Pianqing's body for a week, and after roughly checking to make sure she was fine, he said, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
Zheng Pianqing nodded, she didn't want to stay in this place for a moment.
After Zheng Lin said these words, the brother and sister walked towards the stairs, and Zhou Yi followed them all the way.
However, Zheng Pianying did not look back at him until they walked out of the villa door together.
After the door of the villa was closed, Zhou Yi stood alone and stared at the door for a long time. His thoughts were in a trance, and many past scenes flashed through his mind.
In the past, Zheng Pianying, even when she said goodbye to him briefly, would always look back three times, with reluctance in every movement and look in her eyes.
But now, there is not even a glance back.
The treatment he once enjoyed was probably given to another man around her.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi became even more eager to find out the man's information.
He tried to find someone to check last time, but because there was no photo or name, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack. He didn't know where to start.
Therefore, he had to first get a photo of the man or find out his name.
——
After Zheng Pianqian got in the car, her face turned pale.
Zheng Linxu never took his eyes away from her face.
After the car drove for a while, Zheng Linxu said to her: "It's okay. This kind of thing will never happen again."
Zheng Pianqing nodded.
Zheng Linxu: "Did he bully you?"
Zheng Pianqian shook her head and took a deep breath, "He knows Sansan's identity."
Zheng Lin said: "It's useless for him to know. Sansan's custody rights are with me. He will never be able to compete with us. Leave these matters to me."
He had never worried about Sansan's custody issue, he was just afraid that if she saw Zhou Yi, she would be dragged into a state of depression again.
