As soon as San San's question came out, Zhou Yi also turned to look at Zheng Pian Ting. He unconsciously clenched the water bottle in his hand, expecting to get the answer to the question from Zheng Pian Ting - although he knew that Zheng Pian Ting was 100% Ninety-nine will not mention him.
As Zhou Yi expected, Zheng Pianqian responded silently to this question. After not hearing the answer for a long time, she guessed: "Did Uncle Mu teach you?"
Zheng Pianqing didn't know how Sansan came to this conclusion, but Mu Chen did know how to play tennis, so she nodded along with Sansan's words, "Yes, he taught me."
This answer had a greater impact on Zhou Yi than the silence - it was not the first time that he heard Sansan mention this "Uncle Mu". She had said it once before that this man named Mu was Zheng Pianqing's boyfriend. .
But he only heard his name but never saw his person, and judging from his current relationship and relationship with Zheng Pianqian, he had no chance to ask Zheng Pianqian to verify these issues.
Zhou Yi felt unhappy and could only keep drinking water to quell his impulse.
There is a restaurant in the tennis court. After the three of them went to take a shower and change clothes, they stayed in the restaurant here to eat.
After ordering the meal, Sansan asked Zheng Pianqing tentatively: "Mom, can I have sweet bread in the afternoon?"
Zheng Pianqing: "What do you want to eat?"
Sansan: "Well, almond croissant or cinnamon rolls."
Zheng Pianqing: "Choose one?"
Sansan held her chin and fell into a dilemma. Children don't like to make choices, they just want to have them all.
At this time, Zhou Yi finally found an opportunity.
When Sansan was silent, Zhou Yi asked with a smile: "Sansan, I just learned how to make cinnamon rolls. How about you come to my house to play and I'll make them for you?"
Sansan's big eyes lit up instantly: "Really? You learned it so quickly? That's amazing~"
Sansan's compliment was very helpful to Zhou Yi, and he couldn't hide his smile, "Would you like to try it?"
"Mom, is it okay?" Sansan was naturally willing to go, but she still didn't forget to ask Zheng Pianqing for her opinion.
Zhou Yi knew he couldn't escape this step, so he turned to look at Zheng Pianqing, looking forward to her answer.
Zheng Pianqian was a little surprised after hearing the conversation between Sansan and Zhou Yi. Although she knew Zhou Yi could cook, baking was a completely new field with a high degree of difficulty. From what Sansan said, it seemed like he hadn't learned it for a few days.
Did you get the hang of it so quickly? Zheng Pianqian thought about the past carefully and found that Zhou Yi's learning ability was indeed very strong.
"Let's go together." Seeing that Zheng Pianqing didn't reply for a while, Zhou Yi took the opportunity to invite her, "Just treat Sansan as her companion. With you here, she won't be so restrained."
Zheng Pianqian came back to her senses and her eyes fell on Zhou Yi's eye injury. After a few hours, his eyes became more swollen and it was quite uncomfortable just to look at it.
But this did not hinder her decision: "No need."
Zheng Pianqing finally rejected Zhou Yi's proposal, "You take Sansan and send her home when the time comes, or I will send someone to pick her up."
Zhou Yi nodded, "Okay."
He was disappointed in his heart, but he couldn't show it, and he couldn't pester her to come with him. "Then I'll take you back later?"
"No, Ah Jiu will pick me up." Zheng Pianqing once again rejected Zhou Yi's proposal.
Zhou Yi choked, "Okay."
Sansan was a little regretful that Zheng Pianqing didn't go there together, but she still didn't forget to say to her: "Mom, I'll bring you some bread when you get home, hehe."
"Okay, I'll wait for you." When Zheng Pianqian spoke to Sansan, her voice softened unconsciously, which was completely different from how she treated Zhou Yi before.
——
After Zheng Pian Ting made the decision, she contacted Ah Jiu. When she came out of the restaurant after lunch, Ah Jiu was already waiting outside the door. Zheng Pian Ting asked him to go to Zhou Yi's car to get the equipment and San San's replacement. clothes, and then said goodbye to Sansan, got in the car and left.
Sansan and Zhou Yi stood there for a while, watching the car Zheng Pianqing was sitting in disappear. Zhou Yi took Sansan's hand and said, "Let's go too."
Sansan nodded and followed Zhou Yi to the car.
Zhou Yi opened the door and watched Sansan get into the safety seat, then fastened the seat belt for her, and then returned to the driver's seat and sat down.
On the way back, Sansan grabbed the seat in the front row and looked at Zhou Yi's profile with concern: "Uncle Zhou, are you okay?"
Zhou Yi: "It's very good. Why do you ask me so suddenly?"
"Then do you still like mom?" Sansan sighed, "Mom just rejected you several times."
After Zhou Yi heard this, he felt dumbfounded - even a child of Sansan's age could see Zheng Pianqing's resistance to him.
"I like her." Zhou Yi gave Sansan a firm answer, "No matter how many times she rejects me, I will still like her."
Sansan: "Okay...what a pity."
Zhou Yi: "Why is it such a pity?"
Sansan lowered her voice, covered her mouth with her hand and said to him, "Mom said she doesn't want to fall in love, so you probably have no chance."
Zhou Yi: "Who did she talk to?"
"You told me." Sansan said, "Mom loves me very much and trusts me. We often have heart-to-heart talks."
She said this with a bit of pride, and she felt a little bit confident in being favored.
For the first time, Zhou Yi felt that he was jealous of his daughter. He couldn't help but tighten his grip on the steering wheel and adjust his mood, "What else are you talking about?"
Sansan: "The rest are just whispers, I can't tell you."
Zhou Yi laughed, "Okay."
Sansan: "Uncle Zhou, don't be sad. You are a very nice person. Mom didn't choose you just because you are not suitable."
Sansan is not old, so he always talks about these words in the same way. When Zhou Yi heard this, he couldn't help but think of Xiaozuo and Xiaoyou who were far away in Beicheng - Sansan was similar in age to them, if there were If we meet by chance, we will definitely be able to play together.
Unfortunately, with the current situation... it is basically impossible for him to bring Sansan back to Beicheng, and the Zhou family has no chance to know Sansan's identity.
"Although your mother doesn't choose me, I will still like her." After a few minutes of silence, Zhou Yi expressed his thoughts to San San.
Sansan didn’t understand: “Why?”
Zhou Yi: "Because if you like someone, you should not ask for anything in return."
These words were still too abstract for San San, who was under six years old. She nodded in understanding, "Okay then."
——
After Zhou Yi brought Sansan back to the apartment, he took out the slippers specially prepared for her from the shoe cabinet and put them on for her, and then took Sansan to the kitchen.
Zhou Yi washed his hands and started working under San San's watch.
After a period of practice, Zhou Yi's movements have become proficient.
Sansan was dazzled by what he saw on the side. When Zhou Yi poured flour and milk into the machine, Sansan stood up on tiptoes curiously to take a look.
Zhou Yi saw through her thoughts and hugged her directly.
Sansan's vision suddenly became very broad.
