Zheng Pianqian chatted with Qin Lie for a few words and then stopped. She sat alone in the restaurant for more than ten minutes. When she went out, Zhou Yi and Sansan had packed everything, and the doll was placed in the living room. of various locations.
The living room, which was originally somewhat empty, now looks much warmer.
When Sansan saw Zheng Pianqing, she immediately came up and took her hand, "Mom, what do you think we did?"
Zheng Pianqing looked around and smiled, "It's very beautiful."
"It's time to rest." Zheng Pianqing glanced at the time, "I have plans for tomorrow, so I'll take you to bed."
Sansan nodded obediently.
Zhou Yi could easily read from Zheng Pianqing's words that she was giving him an eviction order. After the incident in the afternoon, the atmosphere between the two of them had undergone subtle changes. This kind of change can only be experienced by experienced people. Only adults can perceive it.
Zheng Pianqing needed to be separated from him for some quiet time, so why didn't he do the same?
Therefore, not long after San San nodded, Zhou Yi took the initiative to say goodbye to their mother and daughter: "Then I will go back first. You all have a rest early. I will bring breakfast tomorrow morning."
Zheng Pianqing nodded as a response.
Sansan also nodded, "Okay, bye Uncle Zhou, please be safe."
She raised her little hand and waved at Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi smiled unconsciously, said "hmm", and left the prime minister's villa first.
Zheng Pianqing took Sansan upstairs to take a hot bath. After she changed into pajamas and lay on the bed, she went back to the bathroom again.
When taking a shower, Zheng Pianqian lowered her head and saw hickeys all over her body - on her shoulders, collarbones, chest and even thighs. These marks inevitably reminded her of what happened in the hotel in the afternoon.
Zheng Pianqing closed her eyes, put her hand on her heart, and took a deep breath - some things, once they start, will be out of control. There was a voice in her head reminding her that this afternoon was just the beginning.
A person's persistence and toughness will become increasingly insignificant after they actually take that step - because there is essentially no big difference between once and countless times.
It is precisely because she is so aware of this that Zheng Pianqian has never thought about having a physical entanglement with Zhou Yi before. Unexpectedly, she still cannot escape after all——
When Zheng Pianqing came out of the shower, Sansan was holding a storybook and reading a bedtime story.
After Zheng Pianqian went to bed, she habitually took the storybook from Sansan and told her the bedtime story in the book. Today's bedtime story happened to be about snowball fights and snowman building, which Sansan had just done a day or two ago. , listened to the story with great interest, and shared many things with Zheng Pianqi during the snowball fight that day at the Zhou family's old house.
Zheng Pianying didn't take much part in the process of building a snowman and having a snowball fight that day. She only went out to play for a while after the snowman was built and took some photos with Sansan, so she wasn't sure about many things during the process.
When she heard San San say that Zhou Yi was surrounded by two brothers, Xiao Zuo and Xiao You, who threw them at her with snowballs, Zheng Pianqian immediately had that scene in her head - she knew that Zhou Yi couldn't really be attacked by two children. No hiding, no running just to keep the kids entertained.
"But I didn't smash it with them. In the end, I saved Uncle Zhou." Sansan was a little proud when talking about this matter.
Zheng Pianqing: "Why not together?"
Sansan moved her lips, but hesitated to speak. After several minutes, she said, "Because I can't bear to hit Uncle Zhou."
In fact, what she almost blurted out just now was: Because I don't want others to bully my father.
Fortunately, he held it back in time, otherwise he would have spilled the beans... They had agreed not to talk about it for the time being.
Zheng Pianqian pursed her lips and looked sideways at Sansan, "Do you particularly like him?"
This is not the first time this question has been asked. Zheng Pianqian also knows that Zhou Yizhao likes Sansan, but now it seems that the degree is even more exaggerated than she imagined.
"Yes." Sansan nodded vigorously, her beautiful big eyes filled with unprecedented seriousness, "I want to be with him forever."
After hearing this, Zheng Pianqian felt very complicated and helpless: "Do you know how far forever is?"
Sansan: "Forever is the day we leave this world, right?"
Zheng Pianqian was speechless.
Is this the magic of blood relations? Obviously Sansan and Zhou Yi have not been together for less than a year, but Sansan has already used the word "forever" - her feelings for Zhou Yi are getting deeper and deeper, and her dependence on Zhou Yi is getting deeper and deeper.
If this trend develops, it will be impossible to disconnect in the future.
"Mom, don't you want Uncle Zhou to be with us forever?" Seeing Zheng Pianqing not speaking, Sansan asked.
Zheng Pianqian came to her senses after Sansan's question and looked at her again, "No, as long as you like him."
Sansan: "Mom, when did you and Uncle Zhou meet?"
Zheng Pianqing had told Sansan before that Zhou Yi was someone Zheng Linxu knew, but he was not familiar with her. Sansan believed it without going into details.
Zheng Pianqing: "Why do you ask this suddenly? What did he tell you?"
"No." Sansan shook her head, "I want to chat with mom, just ask."
Zheng Pianqing said "hmm" and finally answered Sansan's question truthfully: "He and I met when I was in college, and you weren't born yet at that time."
Sansan waved her hands and counted: "Wow, that's been a long time."
Zheng Pianqing nodded, yes, it has been a long time.
It has been almost nine years since she was in her early twenties, and her world has changed drastically, and she has gained such a lovely child.
Sansan lay on the bed and chatted with Zheng Pianying before falling asleep. After seeing her falling asleep, Zheng Pianying turned off the bedside lamp and lay down next to her.
——
I don't know whether it was because of the answers to Sansan's questions before going to bed, or because of the absurd incident in the afternoon. In this dream at night, Zheng Pianqian dreamed of many things that happened when she was in love with Zhou Yi.
When I woke up, those images were still lingering in my mind.
Zhou Yi came over with breakfast at early seven o'clock. When he knocked on the door, Sansan hadn't woken up yet, and Zheng Pianqing had just come downstairs.
After opening the door, Zhou Yi followed Zheng Pianqing to the restaurant, and the two faced each other alone again.
Zheng Pianqing simply made a cup of latte. She sat back at the dining table and raised her eyelids to look at Zhou Yi opposite.
He had just taken off his jacket, and underneath was a dark gray round-neck sweatshirt. The style of his clothing was not much different from that of years ago, but... the feeling had changed a lot.
In fact, when they met again after so many years, Zheng Pianqian almost didn't take a close look at his face.
After last night's dream, Zheng Pianqing took a closer look and found that his appearance was much more mature than before.
A man's thirties to forties should be the most attractive stage in his life.
