Zhao Dong explained, "That person's name is Zhao Jianjun. He was an important figure in charge of your mother's security back then, and he was also the only witness to this incident."
"I don't know if he has anything to do with me, and I don't know if he has anything to do with the Zhao family. The answer I can give you now is that I have never heard of such a person!"
Sophie tentatively asked, "What if?"
Zhao Dong asked back, "What if he is related to the Zhao family? Then we must find out the truth! For you and for me!"
"And now I want to know who this Zhao Jianjun is more than you do. Believe me, no matter what happens, we can get through it!"
"We have overcome so many difficulties. I believe nothing can stop us from being together!"
Sophie looked painful, "But Zhao Dong, I'm very confused now. I can't give you the answer, and I can't see our future. I..."
Zhao Dong changed his tone, "Needless to say, I understand. You have experienced too many things recently. You don't know how to face me or yourself."
"I'm willing to give you some time and some distance. Don't put too much pressure on yourself!"
Sophie looked downcast, "You have no idea what I'm worried about. There's something wrong with my current state. Aren't you worried that I will change in the future?"
Zhao Dong asked, "How to change?"
Sophie bit her lip, "Become utilitarian, become like my father, who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals! Become indifferent, become ruthless, become something you, Zhao Dong, can't recognize!"
Zhao Dong smiled softly, "No matter how you change, you will always be my wife! No matter how you change, you will still be the brightest one among thousands of stars! No matter how you change, I will never mess with you.
Throw it away, I promise!"
Seemingly touched by Zhao Dong's gentle words, Sophie slowly let down her guard, "But that incident was about my mother and involved too many people. If the truth is found out, I will definitely seek justice for my mother.
Fair!"
"Zhao Dong, do you know what I will face then?"
"I've heard a little bit about what happened to my mother back then. With her level of glory, are ordinary people in the country qualified to plot against her?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "I understand, it's a huge relationship!"
Sophie asked again, "So, do you still insist on investigating this matter?"
Zhao Dong's eyes were firm, "For you, so what if I become the enemy of the whole world?"
The ice in Sophie's heart finally loosened at this moment, her emotions fluctuated, her eyes undulated, and even her voice changed, "Zhao Dong..."
Zhao Dong tried to get closer, but just when the two were about to touch, the door was suddenly opened!
Under the influence of the air current, the wind chimes not far away vibrated!
Sophie was already insecure, and now she seemed to be frightened. She took two steps back and then returned to the same place in an instant!
The person who entered was Fan Ze, who took the side door on the other side. He seemed to know that his appearance was somewhat inappropriate.
He pointed to the table and apologized: "The case is here, I'm sorry, you can continue chatting."
When Fan Ze left, that feeling was destroyed.
Sophie returned to her previous distant tone, "I'm a little tired, Zhao Dong, please take me back to Tianzhou."
Zhao Dong also had the illusion of missing out, so he nodded and said, "Okay! I'll take you home!"
When Zhao Dong opened the door with his front foot, Sophie raised her foot and followed behind, but her body subconsciously opened the distance of three steps.
Wu Mei tried to step forward, "Xiao Fei..."
Seeing Sophie frowning, she froze in place again!
Liang Xiao stepped forward and hugged Sophie, "Let's go, the car has been arranged, let's go back together."
Sophie nodded and silently followed Liang Xiao away.
Wu Mei stood there with similar emotions to Zhao Dong, especially when her eyes fell on Sophie's back, even the corners of her eyes were a little moister.
Zhao Dong sighed from the side, "Aunt Mei, give Xiaofei some time."
Wu Mei covered her mouth and said in a sad tone: "That's how she was back then. She locked herself in a room alone. She didn't see anyone or talk to anyone. For three months, no one could get close to her!"
"Zhao Dong, promise me that nothing will happen to her, okay?"
Zhao Dong slowly clenched his fists, "I promise you, I won't let anything happen to her!"
Downstairs in the rehabilitation center, Ajun and Aunt Mei got in the car first.
On the other side, Zhao Dong drove the car himself, while Liang Xiao and Sophie sat in the back seat.
Before getting in the car, Bian Xiaobo rushed over.
Zhao Dong motioned to Liang Xiao to help look after Sophie, and walked over alone, "How are you doing?"
Bian Xiaobo shook his head, "There is no problem here in the provincial capital, but..."
Zhao Dong frowned, "You haven't been contacted yet?"
Seeing Bian Xiaobo nodding, Zhao Dong looked gloomy and said, "You must be in trouble."
Bian Xiaobo's tone was solemn, "With Yan Feng's skills, not many people can keep him!"
Zhao Dong slowly exhaled, "It's really not much!"
Bian Xiaobo ran out of ideas for a moment, "What should we do next?"
Zhao Dong didn't say much, "Wait! If Yan Feng wants to hide, no one can find him. Wait until he takes the initiative to contact us!"
Speaking of this, Zhao Dong suddenly remembered the conversation he had with Sophie last night.
After a brief weighing, he finally said, "Help me investigate something. Only you know. Don't use people from the company!"
Bian Xiaobo heard something strange in Zhao Dong's tone, "What's the matter?"
Zhao Dong turned around and said, "Go and ask, where was Xie Jiang yesterday?"
Bian Xiaobo's expression suddenly changed, and he was about to speak, but when he met Zhao Dong's eyes, he stopped everything he said!
Zhao Dong didn't say much, "Let me know if you have any news."
Bian Xiaobo's eyes fell on the car, "How is Xiaofei?"
Zhao Dong didn't hide it, "It's not good."
Bian Xiaobo sighed, "I owe her an apology."
Zhao Dong asked, "Why, do you approve of her?"
Bian Xiaobo nodded, "She has the qualifications!"
Zhao Dong said in a complicated tone, "I will only say this once. I, Zhao Dong's woman, do not need other people's approval."
"You are my brothers and she is my wife. Don't make it difficult for me."
Bian Xiaobo smiled bitterly, "Then when she gets better, I'll go to Tianzhou to see her."
Zhao Dong didn't say anything more. He turned around and dialed Cai Ran's number, "I'll give you a week to figure out why your brother got involved. I'll wait for your news!"
Cai Ran's tone fluctuated, "One week?"
This matter is very involved. How can we find out in a week?
Zhao Dong refused to listen to the explanation, "Is it very long? Then three days will be enough!"
Cai Ran's expression changed and he said anxiously: "Zhao Dong..."
Zhao Dong asked back, "I've given you the opportunity. It's up to you whether you can seize it! If you can't even do this, what qualifications do you, the Cai family, have to discuss cooperation with me?"
The phone was hung up, and just as Zhao Dong was returning to Tianzhou, he was somewhere in an unknown suburb.
Yan Feng sat in the corner of an abandoned coal mine, tore off one of his sleeves, and then wrapped it tightly around his waist!
As he moved, blood gradually soaked through his sleeves!
