The eldest brother knelt on the spot, clenching his fists and feeling extremely anxious.
He understood his mother. When she was furious, it was useless for anyone to plead for mercy, so even if she broke in, it would be of little use.
What's more, he didn't dare to break in.
But the eldest brother knows his younger brother's temperament better. Once Zhao Dong is sure of something, he will never change his words even if he is beaten to death!
Just when I was at my wits end, I heard footsteps outside.
The visitor was Sophie, who had not slept well at first. When she heard her brother's voice, she hurried over, "Brother, why are you kneeling here? What happened?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another crisp sound in the room!
Sophie's expression immediately changed, as if she had thought of something, and she walked forward without saying a word!
Sister-in-law wants to remind, "Xiao Fei..."
How could Sophie care about that? She opened the door without hesitation and immediately saw Zhao Dong kneeling on the ground!
Although she was still mentally resistant to Zhao Dong, when she saw the criss-crossing scars on Zhao Dong's back, it was as if something deep in her heart was awakened!
My tears were uncontrollable, my body was even more uncontrollable, I rushed in desperately!
The reaction was completely instinctive. Without any reason, he knelt down beside Zhao Dong and hugged Zhao Dong tightly with his arms!
Zhao Dong was stunned on the spot, especially when he felt the familiar softness and warmth in his arms. His whole body seemed to be petrified, his face gradually moved, and his voice was even softer to the extreme, "There is blood on your body, don't stain your clothes.
.”
Sophie distanced herself from Zhao Dong, looked at each other, and then, as if out of control, she opened her mouth and bit his shoulder!
The force was quite strong, and I could taste the slightest bit of blood in an instant!
Zhao Dong's eyes fell on Sophie, without the slightest blame, but with gentle eyes, even with pity!
After Sophie vented her emotions, she turned around, knelt down with Zhao Dong, raised her head and said, "Mom, Zhao Dong is not to blame for what happened this time. It was my decision to hide it from my family."
"Zhao Dong is at fault. If you want to beat or scold him, I won't say anything!"
"But I am the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family. My husband is at fault. As long as he kneels here, I will kneel with him as long as he does!"
Mother Zhao raised the bamboo ruler high in her hand, her nose felt sour for a moment, but she still couldn't bear to drop it again!
The next moment, Zhao's mother sighed with disappointment, turned around and left the room.
When she came to the door, Zhao's mother stopped, and her tone was extremely complicated, "Finding such a wife in this life is a blessing that Zhao Dong earned in his previous life. Learn to cherish it, and don't regret it after losing her in the future!"
After his mother left, Zhao Dong hurriedly helped Sophie up, "The ground is cold, get up quickly!"
The sister-in-law also helped her mother aside at the same time.
The eldest brother followed him in and saw the injuries on his younger brother's body. He wanted to scold him, but he couldn't bear to be too harsh. "Xiaodong, what can I say to you?"
"Every time you get into trouble, you have to involve the whole family to wipe your butt! Why are you still standing there? Go get the wound treated immediately!"
Before leaving the room, Sophie turned her head and looked at the black and white portrait on the wall. She quickly looked away again, but she grabbed Zhao Dong's arm with a little more force!
Zhao Dong noticed something was wrong, "You..."
Sophie couldn't help but drag the person back to the next door, pointed to the sofa and said: "Take off your clothes!"
Zhao Dong grinned like a child.
Sophie raised her eyebrows, but her tone was unusually cold, "I asked you to take off your clothes, why are you giggling?"
Zhao Dong was indeed giggling. As long as Sophie still had feelings for him, even if she was angry, even if she was beaten or scolded, he didn't care at all.
He is most afraid of being the same as before, neither hitting nor scolding, being tepid, neither smiling at you nor losing his temper with you, as if he doesn't care about anything, as if everything has nothing to do with him.
Cold violence is the most heart-breaking, so now that he sees Sophie angry, he at least knows that Sophie has him in her heart. This is enough, and the beating is worth it!
Sophie ignored Zhao Dong's emotional changes and came behind him with the wound medicine prepared at home. She was silent throughout the process, but her movements were extremely gentle.
The slightest itching feeling is healed not on the back, but on the heart!
Until Sophie's palm fell on her shoulder, Zhao Dong finally lost control of his emotions and reached out to grab it.
Sophie wanted to hide, but failed. She was so frightened that she dropped the medicine bottle in her hand and asked, "Zhao... Zhao... Zhao Dong... what are you doing?"
Zhao Dong's eyes fluctuated, "Promise me, no matter what wrong things I do in the future, you can hit or scold me if you want, just don't ignore me, okay?"
Sophie didn't know how to reply for a moment, so she opened her mouth. Just as she was about to speak, her elder brother suddenly burst in, "Xiaodong..."
After the words fell, the elder brother noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere in the room. He felt a little embarrassed for a moment and it was too late to hide.
Sophie was so frightened that she quickly pulled her hand away and ran back to the room.
Zhao Dong looked at the closed door and felt a little relieved. While changing his clothes again, he asked: "Brother, do you have anything to do with me?"
The eldest brother glared, "You brat, what trouble did you get into this time? Why do you make mom so angry?"
Zhao Dong didn't want his elder brother to worry, so he explained casually, "It's okay, I can handle it myself."
The eldest brother asked again with a worried look on his face, "Are you and Xiaofei okay?"
Zhao Dong shook his head, "It's okay."
Seeing that his elder brother was hesitant to speak, Zhao Dong guessed his purpose, "Brother, tell me, are you looking for me for something?"
The eldest brother said carefully, "What did you tell your sister-in-law about that morning?"
Zhao Dong explained, "According to your explanation, I didn't say anything else."
"Brother, what's going on? Are you in any trouble? I asked Wang Meng to come back first, why didn't you let him help? Is there anything you can't say?"
The eldest brother smiled bitterly and said, "It's nothing. I was just talking about a project with customers in the factory last night and ended up drinking too much. Then I slept in the hotel."
"You also know that your sister-in-law is a petty person. If she knew about this, something would happen, and she would cause chaos in the family. So I just told a lie casually."
Zhao Dong was obviously not fooled so easily, "Brother, I know your drinking capacity, are you hiding something from me?"
The eldest brother smiled and said, "What can I hide from you?"
Zhao Dong reminded, "Brother, I am also a man, and I am your brother. No matter what happens, you can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me. Do you understand what I mean?"
Seeing that his younger brother didn't believe it, the eldest brother straightened his face and said, "What do you mean, you can't even believe me?"
Zhao Dong didn't ask any more questions. If he didn't go home at night, the most likely problem would be the issue between men and women.
However, based on Zhao Dong's understanding of his eldest brother, any other issues are likely to arise. Only on the issue of men and women, he has absolute confidence in his eldest brother!
The eldest brother is quite old-fashioned and will never do anything that harms the family!
