Zhao Dong said nothing and didn't know what to say.
After a brief relationship of half a month, he found that he had fallen in love with this woman.
However, the pressure from the Su family and Sophie's excellence also constantly reminded him of the huge gap between the two.
He must work harder and better to keep narrowing this gap.
Zhao Dong had never thought that there would be strong competitors around him.
But today, Sophie met him without telling him, and accepted the love from her ex-boyfriend, so did he still need to work hard?
Sophie suddenly said: "Zhao Dong, I feel that the two of us really have no common language. Since you don't trust me, then let's just go our separate ways. This will be good for everyone."
Originally it was just an angry remark, but it changed its taste in the ears of caring people.
Zhao Dong paused in his steps and frowned into a "Chuan" character.
After a while, he said calmly, "Okay, I'll have time tomorrow morning!"
The bedroom door closed and calm returned to the living room.
Sophie stood there stupidly. She wanted to say this sentence countless times, but once she actually said it, she was not as relaxed and free as she imagined. Instead, she felt a sense of loss that could not be concealed.
She looked at the closed door in front of her, feeling indescribably bad. Did this damn guy agree without even thinking about it?
It's okay, the two people can't get along anyway, so instead of hurting each other, it's better to separate.
Even if we can't be lovers, we won't be enemies.
Sophie turned around lonely, picked up her satchel and was about to go upstairs, but when she caught a glimpse of the gift box placed on the coffee table, her movements slowed down again.
She does not deny the excellence of her ex-boyfriend, nor does she deny that she has no feelings for him. Otherwise, she would not go to the meeting today without telling Zhao Dong.
At that time, the relationship between the two was very stable, and she also accepted the other party's proposal.
This was also the first time Sophie tried to resist the fate arranged by Aunt Mei. If the other party's sudden disappearance had not caused the cancellation of the originally confirmed marriage, there would probably be no further trouble.
Especially recently, the news of his sudden return to China caused a ripple in Sophie's already calm heart.
So much so that she agreed to today's dinner invitation without even thinking about it.
Not surprisingly, he was as excellent and a gentleman as ever, but the romantic scene she imagined did not appear. Instead, the meal felt a bit awkward. Especially when she thought of Zhao Dong, the feeling of guilt in her heart was particularly strong.
So much so that when she heard about Zhao Dong's accident, she ended the banquet without thinking.
But Zhao Dong's distrust made her extremely annoyed.
This damn bastard, has all his emotional intelligence been eaten by dogs?
If you really don't have him in your heart, how can you let him live in the house, and how can you give him half a month to think about it? Does he really think that the dignified eldest daughter of the Su family will be such a casual woman?
But it's too late to say anything now. Tomorrow morning, even the time has been set, is there still a chance to regret it?
Just as she was thinking about it, Sophie opened the gift box in her hand.
She was in such a hurry that she didn't see it until now. Inside was a delicate brooch by Cartier. She liked both the style and the pattern.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing me for a year, he is still as careful as ever and knows my preferences and tastes.
The corners of his mouth were raised, and every bit of the past together came back to his mind like a tide.
Suddenly, a card in the gift box caught her attention. When she picked it up and took a look, the familiar handwriting came into view.
She was already past the age of love, and the handwriting on the card did not make her happy. Instead, she was stunned for a long time.
Sophie didn't understand until this moment why the bastard was so sad and desperate and why he agreed so happily. It turned out to be because of this note.
Thinking of this, she suddenly raised her eyebrows, and her mood was unprecedentedly cheerful.
Damn bastard, he made her worry all the way there just now. Is this considered retribution?
Sophie grabbed the gift box, walked to the guest bedroom door, and kicked the door with her foot.
When there was no response, she pushed a little harder, and the bedroom door made a "bang" sound when she kicked it.
Sophie said domineeringly, "If you're not dead, get out of here!"
After a long while, the door opened.
Zhao Dong frowned and said, "Can't you wait all night? Wait until I pack my things and move out now."
He thought about helping Sophie carry the sky above her head, and also thought about facing the unknown pressure with her, but since Sophie didn't give him this chance, he wouldn't beg her in a lowly manner.
Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly saw Sophie raising the phone in her hand.
There is a dialing interface on the phone, and the note in the address book is a man named Xu Huayang.
Zhao Dong frowned more and more. What tricks were you using to show off in front of him?
Just as she was thinking about it, the call was connected, Sophie pressed the speakerphone, and a very charming magnetic voice came from the receiver, and the voice was gentler than ever before.
Just this one voice is enough to kill most girls instantly.
"Baby, are you still asleep? I wanted to call you just now because I was afraid it would be inconvenient for you. Have things been taken care of? I'm worried about you. If it's convenient, can I go over and see you?"
Zhao Dong looked angry. What did she mean? She hinted that she should leave quickly before the other party came over?
Resisting the urge to smash the phone to pieces, I turned around and went back to pack my things.
It is true that he likes Sophie, but he will not give up all his self-esteem for love.
Sophie followed in and asked softly, "I just saw the gift you gave me when I got home."
"Do you like it? I have been choosing this gift for a long time. I heard from the designer that it was inspired by the snow-capped mountains of the Alps. After thinking about it, I think it is the only one that is worthy of you."
Zhao Dong felt disgusted, it was just a brooch, how could there be so much bullshit?
Although he didn't see anyone, it was not difficult for him to imagine that the person on the other side of the phone should be a charming young man. He should be able to deal with girls with this kind of sweet talk.
Sophie didn't pay much attention to the content on the phone, but it was Zhao Dong's increasingly ugly expression that made her particularly happy.
"What's going on with that card? I just saw it."
When Zhao Dong heard this, his body suddenly stiffened. From what she meant, he didn't know the existence of that card before?
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then she spoke, "Feifei, it was indeed my fault for leaving without saying goodbye, but I also had unavoidable difficulties at the time! When I learned that you were engaged to someone else, you didn't know that I was so heartbroken
Ashes!"
Sophie's mood only fluctuated briefly, and soon returned to normal. On countless nights, she had cried into tears because of this man's refusal to say goodbye.
Otherwise, how could she, who has always been strong, accept Aunt Mei's arrangements so easily.
It's better now. Just because you have no choice but to ask her to forgive you?
