Zheng Pianqing was willing to compromise in the first place because Sansan had become a little dependent on Zhou Yi at that time. When she saw Sansan's eyes, she softened unconsciously and gave Zhou Yi the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
It was like this at that time, but now the two of them get along day and night. Zhou Yi not only plays with San San everywhere, but also learns how to make her favorite bread and desserts. This kind of behavior is worthy of praise from any parent. Points of praise.
Even if Sansan didn't know that Zhou Yi was her father, after so many things, she couldn't calmly accept that Zhou Yi had "disappeared" from her life.
If they were to be separated forcibly, Sansan's emotions would definitely be affected, and the relationship between mother and daughter would also be estranged.
Zhou Yi... Zheng Pianqian pinched the pillow tightly, tears bursting out of her eyes silently.
This may be his purpose.
Zheng Pianqing's insecurity, which had been mostly dealt with at first, broke out again because of this incident and grew wantonly.
At this point, it is absolutely impossible to deal with it painlessly.
But what about Sansan’s attitude? Suppose she chooses to leave her for Zhou Yi, how should she deal with herself?
Just thinking about this possibility, Zheng Pianqing's tears have already burst into tears - she can't leave Sansan.
Zheng Pianqing hugged her knees and buried her head in the pillow.

After Zhou Yi came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he drove directly back to the Zhou family's old home.
When we arrived, it was already twelve o'clock in the morning.
Zhou Yi parked the car at the door and sent a WeChat message to Zhou Ren: [Are you asleep? 】
After waiting for almost ten minutes, Zhou Ren did not reply. Zhou Yi guessed that he had fallen asleep, so he did not disturb him again.
Zhou Yi unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car. The security guards who were keeping watch at the old house immediately surrounded him. After seeing Zhou Yi clearly, they were a little surprised: "Second Young Master, why are you back so late?"
Zhou Yi waved his hand, "Don't worry about me, you are busy with your business."
Zhou Yi walked into the yard in a daze, his face still aching from where Zheng Pianqian had slapped him, but he had no intention of thinking about it now. He was only thinking about what to do to make Zheng Pianqian trust him.
Zhou Yizheng was thinking this, when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. He came back to his senses, took a closer look, and met Zhou Li's expressionless face.
Normally, Zhou Yi would definitely tease Zhou Li a few words when encountering this kind of situation, but right now, he had no such intention at all.
This time, the person who took the initiative to speak was Zhou Li: "Why did you come home so late?"
Zhou Yi shook his head.
His movement made Zhou Li notice the handprints on his face. Zhou Li frowned and said bluntly: "Were you beaten?"
Zhou Yi: "..."
Zhou Li: "Zheng family?"
After thinking about it, they were the only ones who dared to attack Zhou Yi: "Has Zheng Linxu come to Beicheng?"
"No." When Zhou Yi spoke, his voice was hoarse, "She beat me."
Zhou Li frowned even more tightly. Although he hadn't gotten along with Zheng Pianqing a few times, she didn't look like the type who would hit someone, or even hit her so hard, unless -
"What did you do?" Zhou Li felt that Zhou Yi must have offended her.
Zhou Yi did not answer him immediately, "Go in and have a drink with me."
Zhou Li agreed.
The two brothers entered the building opposite. Zhou Yi took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, and the two sat at the small bar in the living room.
Zhou Li watched Zhou Yi drink half a cup in one breath and asked him, "Did you have a quarrel?"
"Sansan knows I'm her father." Zhou Yi put down the cup.
Zhou Li: "What did you say?"
Zhou Yi shook his head, "Xiao Zuo Xiaoyou spilled the beans."
He told Zhou Li exactly what happened, and after he finished speaking, he drank the remaining half of the glass of wine.
Zhou Li probably knew about the agreement between Zhou Yi and Zheng Pianying. The prerequisite for the Zheng family to let him participate in Sansan's life was to prevent Sansan from knowing about their father-daughter relationship. Now that things are exposed, Zheng Pianying must be very angry.
Zhou Li pondered for a moment: "Then have you explained it?"
Zhou Yi laughed at himself, his eyes turning red, "Do you know the story of the boy who cried wolf?"
Zhou Li: "She doesn't believe you."
"I lie too much and have a lot of criminal records. Now she won't believe me no matter what I say." Zhou Yi looked at the empty goblet in front of him and laughed, his shoulders trembling, "You really asked for it. "
The relationship between them has obviously eased. Although he will be jealous and uncomfortable because of her meeting with Qin Lie, at least Zheng Pianqing was still willing to talk to him after they had sex last time. He can comfort himself. She treats him a little differently.
This matter has completely returned to its original shape - to be more precise, it is worse than before.
Zhou Li is not a person who is good at comforting others. Ever since he was a child, Zhou Yi has been comforting him most of the time. Zhou Yi always smiles playfully. This is the first time Zhou Li has seen him look so sad.
Zhou Li stared at Zhou Yi in silence for a long time before he reluctantly spoke. What he said was not comforting, "Have you figured out what to do?"
Zhou Yi nodded first, then shook his head.
Zhou Li didn't understand what he meant, and looked at him with more doubts.
Zhou Yi: "I have thought of a way to deal with it. Whether she believes it or not, I can't control."
He knew in his heart that Zheng Pianqian would most likely not believe it. Once trust collapsed, it would be difficult to rebuild it.
Zhou Li also felt that Zheng Pianqing wouldn't believe it. He nodded and didn't say much. Although he couldn't comfort him, he could at least not hit him.
Zhou Yi didn't expect to hear any words of comfort from Zhou Li. He poured himself another glass of wine and drank it.
Zhou Li sat across from him and stared at Zhou Yi for a long time, and then said without emotion: "So you will feel uncomfortable too."
Zhou Yi twitched his lips and said, "I am also a human being, and being human makes me feel uncomfortable."
Zhou Li: "First time meeting."
Zhou Yi: "Can you now understand how I felt when I saw you getting drunk and dying for Jiang Mingzhu?"
Zhou Li's eyes were a little colder, "She deserves it too."
Zhou Yi sneered and waved his hand, "Okay, you didn't."
Zhou Li moved his stool and stood up, "Go to bed after drinking."
——
Zhou Yi only slept for less than three hours.
Early the next morning, when it was dark, he took a shower, changed his clothes and went to Zhou Ren and Ming Yue's place.
When Zhou Yi knocked on the door, it was Xiao Zuo who ran to open the door.
"Second uncle?!" Xiao Zuo was very surprised when he saw Zhou Yi, and poked his head behind him: "Is Sansan here too?"
"She didn't come, I was the only one." Zhou Yi felt very complicated when he saw Xiao Zuo now.
"Second child?" Zhou Ren also happened to go downstairs and was very surprised to see Zhou Yi, "Why so early?"
Zhou Yi and Xiao Zuo entered the living room, "I have something to ask you and my sister-in-law."
Zhou Ren nodded slightly and noticed the marks on his face, but before he could ask, Xiao You suddenly rushed over and became curious: "Second uncle, were you beaten?"
When Xiaoyou mentioned it, Xiaozuo also noticed, "Wow, second uncle, your face is swollen!"
Zhou Yi took a deep breath: "..."
