In desperation, Zhao Dong could only say: "Can you please stop making trouble? I just want to be alone and I will be fine after a while."
Sophie took a deep breath, took the initiative to step forward, took his hand and said, "I'm sorry, it was my fault just now. Can you stop being angry?"
Zhao Dong was dumbfounded. He was used to seeing Sophie's strength and pride. When had he ever seen her like this?
If I remember correctly, this seemed to be the first time I heard the words "I'm sorry" from her mouth!
He was almost pushed and dragged into the car by her.
Until the moment he sat in the car, he was still doubting that the woman who was so soft and weak that people couldn't bear to be angry with her was really Sophie?
She urged, "Why are you standing there? Fasten your seat belt!"
Zhao Dong obeyed and fastened his seat belt.
As a result, as soon as the car slid out of the bus stop, a siren was heard from behind.
"State b*****, pull over ahead!"
Sophie looked annoyed and glared at Zhao Dong, "It's all up to you!"
Zhao Dong smiled bitterly, what does this have to do with him?
Just as I was thinking about it, a police officer knocked on the car window, made some routine inquiries, and then took away Sophie's driver's license.
The other party asked, "Did you know you can't park at the bus station?"
Sophie quickly admitted her mistake, "I know, I just picked someone up and didn't notice the bus coming."
"Picking someone up? Didn't you notice the bus coming into the stop? Are these the reasons?"
"It's not a reason, it's my fault. My awareness of traffic regulations is too weak."
"It's a good attitude to admit your mistake. Three points will be deducted and you will be fined two hundred!"
As he spoke, he would issue a ticket.
Sophie hurriedly took off her sunglasses and said, "Uncle policeman, there is no next time. Can you give me a chance?"
The policeman wanted to laugh, but held it back.
If ordinary people got close to him like this, they would most likely be severely reprimanded.
But when I heard "Uncle Police" from such a beautiful woman, it didn't violate the rules at all. I couldn't keep serious.
He let it go and said: "Okay, I will only give you a verbal warning this time. If you catch me again in the future, you will be punished directly to the upper limit!"
When the car got back on the road, Sophie breathed a sigh of relief.
Seemingly feeling that the atmosphere in the car was a bit dull, she turned on the music.
When the car got on the highway, he explained, "Are you still angry with me?"
Zhao Dong didn't know how to answer the call, and it was impossible not to be angry.
Anyone who saw the scene just now would probably not feel comfortable.
Sophie looked at his face and continued, "Xu Huayang came back in the morning. We have been talking about work all day today. Other than that, we have not interacted at all!"
"You don't have to explain this to me."
"It's your business whether you listen or not, and it's my business whether I speak or not. If I don't explain clearly, who will I become in your eyes?"
Zhao Dong turned his head and looked outside the car.
Sophie was so anxious to defend herself because she probably cared about his opinion.
Rationally speaking, this is a good sign.
But everything that happened today left him with a knot in his throat.
God knows what kind of pressure he endured today to avoid landing his fist on Xu Huayang's disgusting face.
Seeing that Zhao Dong remained silent, Sophie continued to explain, "If you don't believe it, I can give you my secretary's phone number and you can ask her yourself! She was with me the whole time today, and I have never been alone with Xu Huayang!
"
"Your secretary will definitely help you speak."
Sophie raised her eyebrows and said, "Zhao Dong, my attitude is sincere enough. If you chat like this, it will be boring."
Zhao Dong turned around and said, "Okay, then I'll listen to your explanation."
Sophie was also full of grievances and could only talk about it.
"The flowers were prepared by Xu Huayang. I didn't know anything about them in advance. He told me when we were almost at the company. What can I do, pretend not to see it? Can't I?"
"The cooperation between Dafeng Group and the Su family is imminent. TM Finance, which he represents behind him, is now the savior for the Su family. I can't slander him, can I?"
"I won't hide it from you. Ever since Xu Huayang returned to Tianzhou, he has asked someone to send me a bouquet of flowers every day."
"Zhao Dong, we are all adults. I have no way to stop anyone outside who likes me, pursues me, or gives me gifts, and I don't have the power to stop them."
"But I can assure you that without exception, all the flowers Xu Huayang sent were given to my secretary by me!"
"I like lilies, but I will accept them no matter who gives them to me!"
After a pause in her tone, she continued, "As for just now, as you saw, I was also caught off guard! How could I refuse in front of so many people?"
"If what he sends is a rose, then I tell you, I will definitely not want it, even if the cooperation is cancelled, I will not want it!"
"But he insists on describing the lily as a testimony of friendship between friends and the sincerity of the collaborators. What do you want me to do?"
"Zhao Dong, although you are my boyfriend, I have to consider more than just your feelings. I also need to consider the Su family, the Su family, and the impact this matter will have on the company. I don't want to
The company my father founded was destroyed in my hands!"
"To a certain extent, I can be considered a semi-public figure. Every move, word and deed I make represents the Su Group's stance on this cooperation."
"So, even if I know that Xu Huayang's motives are impure, even if I know that he is still pursuing me, I can only pretend to be confused!"
"It's not that I deliberately indulged him, nor that I indulged his pursuit, but I need such a relationship to help the Su family get through the difficulties. Do you understand?"
Having said too many words in one breath, Sophie's breathing became noticeably short.
Zhao Dong understands that he has always understood the difficulties Sophie mentioned, but this is not the reason why he can betray their relationship.
Since Sophie was willing to explain, he also wanted to hear if Sophie had any better explanation.
He opened his mouth and asked: "Okay, since you said that the secretary has been with you all day, then why didn't I see her just now? If she was here, you could leave the embarrassing situation to the secretary to handle."
While I was talking, the car had already exited the outer ring road, and Jiangbei District was in sight.
Sophie glanced at the rearview mirror and parked the car on the side of the road.
"Don't you want the answer? Get out of the car and see for yourself!"
She got out of the car first, opened the trunk, and then stood aside without speaking, holding her shoulders.
Zhao Dong also followed the car with suspicion, but when he saw what was in the trunk, he was stunned.
There were a lot of things in the trunk, including large and small packages.
After roughly distinguishing them, I found that the few packages on the edge are all small gift boxes.
On the men's side is a high-end belt with a dust bag on the outside. The style and color can't be seen clearly.
The lady's product is a set of high-end cosmetics. Zhao Dong couldn't recognize the brand, but you can tell from the packaging that it is definitely not a cheap product.
The smaller gift box on the other side is Zhou Taisheng's jewelry.
