When Zheng Pianqing saw Zhou Yi's determined look, she knew that today's communication had failed. He looked like he couldn't listen to anything. It would be a waste of her time to talk any more.
Zheng Pianqian stood up and was about to leave.
Zhou Yi suddenly called her name from behind.
Zheng Pianqing did not look back.
But she heard Zhou Yi's hoarse, trembling voice: "Do you want to marry Qin Lie?"
Zheng Pianqian didn't answer.
Zhou Yi continued: "You have never behaved like that in front of me."
Zheng Pianqing lowered her eyes and glanced at the floor under her feet, "You are not worthy to compare with him."
After leaving these words, she stepped forward, closed the door and left without hesitation, leaving Zhou Yi sitting in his original position staring at the empty seat opposite in a daze, all his emotions turned into a self-deprecating smile.
——
When Zheng Pianqing came out of the box, her expression was not good. As soon as Zheng Linxu saw her, he immediately stood up and walked to her, "How was the conversation?"
Zheng Pianqing's expression was serious: "He refused to agree."
Zheng Linxu: "What did he say?"
After Zheng Pianqing pondered for a moment, he finally repeated what Zhou Yi had just said to Zheng Linxu. Zheng Linxu's already serious face became even more solemn after hearing these words - whether Zhou Yi was sincere to Zheng Pianqing, he didn't care. Go explore, but he is determined to entangle their mother and daughter.
Even if they don't have to worry about custody rights, once Zhou Yi really goes through the legal process, the judge will at least let him enjoy visitation rights. If Zhou Yi makes a big fuss about the Zheng family's deliberate concealment of the child's existence, it will be even more troublesome.
Zheng Pianqing had just finished chatting with Zhou Yi, and she felt very tired. Although she did not react violently during the whole process, it was the result of extreme restraint. Over the years, her biggest improvement was that her endurance was getting stronger and stronger. .
Her mind is very confused now and she doesn't know how to make the next decision: "Brother, what should we do?"
Zheng Linxu thought for a while and said to her: "Don't think about it now. I'll talk to him next time I see him."
If Zhou Yi insists on meeting San San, then they can only retreat and choose another method - they can not prevent him from seeing San San, but he will never be able to reveal his true identity to San San in his life.
Compared with going to court, this is a more acceptable method, but it only needs to be ensured that Zheng Pianqing cannot be present when Zhou Yi and San San meet.
First of all, Zheng Pianqing himself didn't want to see Zhou Yi, and secondly - Zhou Yi said that he fell in love with Zheng Pianqing. Regardless of whether it was true love or not, since he said this, he would definitely start chasing after her.
On the way home from the restaurant, Zheng Linxu kept thinking about this issue.
After some consideration, Zheng Linxu asked Zheng Pianqing coldly: "How have you considered Qin Lie's matter?"
Zheng Pianqian shook her head.
She has considered this matter recently, but has not been able to make up her mind. She also understands why Zheng Linxu asked questions at this time.
"I don't want some external force to push me to make the decision to marry him." Zheng Pianqing said, "This is unfair to him."
Zheng Linxu nodded, expressing understanding.
——
Long after Zheng Pianqian left, Zhou Yi was still sitting in the box in a daze. In front of him was Zheng Pianqian's indifferent expression after he said "I love you."
Zheng Pianqing has never been a person who loves to laugh. This was something he knew very well from the day they met. The former Zheng Pianqing could only be considered cold at best. Her attitude was not just for him. .
But now, it's completely different.
Her indifference to him was filled with contempt and disdain from the depths of her soul. It was the kind of indifference in which she would only regard him as air even if he appeared in front of her - but she was not like this in front of others.
Especially in front of Qin Lie.
That kind of strong contrast and contrast cut off his way of self-comfort. He couldn't say any words to brainwash himself. He could only accept the cruel reality: she no longer loved him.
All the love once given to him was transferred to Qin Lie - or in other words, doubled.
Before today, even he himself thought that he was just being evil and unwilling to give in. But at this time, the pain caused by the severe pulling of his heart and the moist corners of his eyes reminded him that he had already fallen into a deep trap without even realizing it. .
His obsession with Zheng Pianqing was far deeper than he imagined, but the most ironic thing was that when he discovered this, she had already fallen in love with someone else.
Being unwilling is resentment, and not being able to love is pain. At this moment, he is jealous of Qin Lie like crazy.
Zhou Yi's throat was dry and hoarse. He picked up the cup at hand and drank some water, holding his hands on the table.
A Cantonese song was playing in the restaurant. After the melody started playing, he heard Eason Chan’s familiar singing voice——
"If I get jealous when I listen to music, why should I treat you so ignorantly?"
"How many beautiful dreams have I had since I was little, and the great words of compassion"
"It hurts even when a beggar calls you poor, but he is afraid to embrace you and make you smile."
"It's useless to regret, I found you missing in the blink of an eye"
Zhou Yi took a deep breath, and the chair within his sight became increasingly blurry.
Zhou Yi sat motionless and listened to the whole song.
After the song ended, the phone at hand began to vibrate. He came to his senses and picked up the phone. There were a few drops of liquid on the screen.
The caller ID showed Rongyue's name.
As soon as Zhou Yi saw her name, he immediately remembered the words of Zheng Pianqing and Zheng Yuemi.
He hung up the phone directly.
No more calls came from there.
Zhou Yi raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, picked up his coat and walked out of the box.
——
Zhou Yi drove around all day and didn't return to the hotel until almost nine o'clock in the evening.
As soon as he parked the car and walked to the hotel lobby, he bumped into Rongyue who came to look for him.
Zhou Yi turned off his cell phone during the day, and Rongyue couldn't contact him all day long, so he came to the hotel after taking care of things in the evening, and when he asked the front desk, he found that he was not in the room either.
After seeing Zhou Yi, Rong Yue immediately walked up and noticed his lost expression and somewhat red and swollen eyes.
Rongyue frowned: "What's wrong with you?"
Zhou Yi didn't answer her, "What are you doing here?"
Rongyue: "I couldn't contact you all day, so I thought something had happened to you."
Rongyue would often say this before, and Zhou Yi never felt there was anything wrong with it.
But after these two days, he still felt uncomfortable listening to these words.
"Rong Yue." Zhou Yi called her name again, "Let's stop contacting each other from now on."
Hearing these words, Rongyue frowned even more tightly, "Are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I'm serious." Zhou Yi glanced around. The hotel lobby was not the right place to talk about this kind of thing. "Let's talk outside."
Rongyue responded, and the two of them walked out of the lobby and came to the outdoor cafe outside.
As soon as he sat down, Rongyue looked at Zhou Yi and asked, "What aroused you today?"
Zhou Yi: "Nothing."
He didn't talk about meeting Zheng Pianqing. "I just feel that if we are too close, others will inevitably misunderstand us. In order not to cause trouble to each other, we don't need to contact each other in the future."
