It was almost midnight. Xie Shan went through a lot of things. She felt sleepy and finally fell into a deep sleep.
Sophie gently covered Xie Shan with the quilt, then closed the door with a pinch of her fingers.
When she walked out of the condolence hall, she happened to see Zhao Dong smoking by the window.
Sophie stepped forward slowly and hugged him from behind, "Are you in a bad mood?"
Zhao Dong put out the cigarette butt, and his voice was slightly hoarse, "No, there are too many things to do today, I can't sleep."
"Where's Xie Shan, are you asleep?"
Sophie nodded, then let go of her hand, stepped forward and leaned into Zhao Dong's arms.
Zhao Dong stroked her hair and asked softly: "Why don't you go to bed?"
Sophie raised her head and said, "If I go to bed at this time, do I have to let you carry the wind and rain outside alone?"
Seeing that Zhao Dong was about to open his mouth, Sophie stood on tiptoes and blocked his lips with her hands, "Don't say thank you to me!"
"We are husband and wife, and we should shoulder whatever happens together!"
"Zhao Dong, am I right?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "Everything my wife says is right!"
A sly smile appeared at the corner of Sophie's mouth, "Okay, then don't hide it. Is there anything you want to ask me?"
Zhao Dong's face was full of surprise, "Have you seen this?"
Sophie stretched out her index finger and tapped Zhao Dong's heart, "So, you must never lie in front of me in the future, otherwise I will see through it immediately!"
Zhao Dong was silent for a moment and then asked: "Do you know Liu Jin?"
A woman's sixth sense is always effective, just like Sophie. Ever since Zhao Dong met Feng Tang just now, she felt that Zhao Dong was pretending to be something, and it was related to her.
But when she heard the name mentioned by Zhao Dong with her own ears, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Sophie looked confused, but her tone did not change at all, "Liu Jin... when we were in college, there was a female classmate with this name among the same group of international students we had. Is she the one you are talking about?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "Yes, that's her. What's your impression of this woman?"
Sophie's tone was normal, "It's okay, the education system abroad is different from that in China. We had a lot of free study time at that time."
"At that time, apart from going to class every day, everyone spent the rest of the time doing internships in companies outside, so we were just ordinary classmates."
"But she is very talented in business. After graduation, she joined a company of a financial giant."
Before Zhao Dong could ask further questions, Sophie asked instead, "Why did you ask about her? Does she have anything to do with the Xie family?"
Zhao Dong did not hide anything and simply explained it.
After hearing this, Sophie looked a little heavy, "You mean, the reason why Xie Jiang fell into trouble was because he was involved in this financial fraud case? And Liu Jin is the legal representative of this company?"
Zhao Dong shook his head, "It's not clear yet. According to the information currently available, this is the situation."
"The reason why those people came to Xie's house to cause trouble just now was to collect debts, and their investment contract was signed by Liu Jin himself!"
"Also, these people are inextricably linked to Company Five and Xie Jiang!"
"So it's hard not to make people wonder if someone is deliberately pulling the strings in this matter!"
"Now tens of billions of funds are missing from the financial company's books. If we can find this woman, we may be able to solve Xie Jiang's troubles!"
Sophie bit her lip and slowly recalled: "Although we didn't keep in touch much after graduation, there seems to be a social organization for international students in China, and her contact information should be there."
"I'll think of a way to see if I can contact her!"
"Don't worry, as long as Xie Jiang doesn't do this, we will definitely have a way to help him!"
"Leave this matter to me. If there is any news, I will inform you as soon as possible!"
Zhao Dong hugged him tightly, "Don't be too tired. It makes me feel bad to see you running around for my sake!"
Sophie hugged back tighter, "Zhao Dong, don't worry, I can't help with other things, but I won't just sit idly by and ignore this matter!"
"No matter why Liu Jin got involved in this matter, I promise to give you an explanation!"
Zhao Dong didn't know if it was an illusion due to the close distance between his heart, but he suddenly felt Sophie's heartbeat speeding up slightly.
He slowly pushed Sophie away, "What's wrong with you?"
Sophie smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll go to the bathroom."
After walking around a corner, from an angle that Zhao Dong couldn't see, Sophie suddenly grasped her chest hard, bit her lips tightly, and her face turned slightly pale.
After calming her breath, she took out her phone and dialed the number she had not contacted for several years.
I originally thought it was the power off state, but unexpectedly, there was a "beep beep" ringing sound from the other end of the phone!
As the call was connected, the air seemed to be stagnant.
Although neither of the two parties spoke, Sophie knew that the woman opposite must be her!
After a brief silence, a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, "I thought you had deleted my contact information a long time ago, and you didn't have anything to say to me when you called me so late?"
Sophie bit her lip and asked, "Why?"
The woman smiled even more cheerfully, "We haven't contacted you for so many years, what exactly do you want to ask?"
Sophie went straight to the point, "You are in Tiandu, right?"
The woman asked, "What, are you asking for Zhao Dong?"
Sophie's expression changed instantly, "Why do you know Zhao Dong's name?"
The woman smiled and said, "You are the eldest lady of the Su family. You are the president of our Overseas Students Association, the goddess of the Finance Department, and a popular figure on campus back then."
"As a scumbag, I'm concerned about Goddess Su's marital status. There shouldn't be anything surprising, right?"
"As expected of Goddess Su, the man she likes is just extraordinary!"
Sophie's voice turned cold, "Xie Jiang's matter really has something to do with you!"
The woman asked back, "When you got married, you didn't send me an invitation. I still feel regretful."
"Now I can only compensate you for the wedding gift in this way. How about it? We haven't seen each other for so many years. Do you like the wedding gift I gave you?"
Sophie breathed in slowly, "What do you want to do? If you want to take revenge on me, just come at me!"
"But let me tell you, if you dare to hurt a hair on my husband's head, I will never let you go!"
The woman sighed repeatedly, "Hey, are you angry now?"
"I haven't seen Goddess Su angry for a long time. I'm so scared!"
Sophie clenched her fists, "If it's because of what happened back then, just come after me!"
"Don't drag innocent people into this, this matter has nothing to do with my husband!"
The woman's voice was like a devil, "Innocent? Who is innocent? Do you think Xie Jiang is innocent? Or do you think Zhao Dong is innocent?"
"Sophie, I have only one purpose for coming back this time, and that is to destroy everything you care about most!"
