Hu Haipeng explained, "Today he went to attend the birthday party of a female classmate in our school. That girl is very ostentatious in our school, and there are many boys who like her."
Zhao Dong was suspicious, "Then what is the trouble you are talking about?"
Hu Haipeng hesitated for a moment, "Just this afternoon, someone spread among classmates that Xiaoman likes Ai Xiao and is pursuing him, and Ai Xiao also agreed!"
"Then during recess, several boys handed Xiaoman notes and told him to be careful."
Zhao Dong gradually became a little disturbed, "Ai Xiao, is this the girl celebrating her birthday?"
Hu Haipeng nodded, "Yes, it's her, our school beauty. Xiaoman didn't go to this birthday party on her own initiative at all, she invited it!"
"Ai Xiao is pretty. There are many boys in school who like her, but I can guarantee that Xiaoman is definitely not pursuing her!"
"When school was over today, I told Xiaoman not to go, but he didn't listen."
"I saw him taking a taxi with Ai Xiao!"
Zhao Dong asked again, "Do you know where they are holding the banquet?"
Hu Haipeng shook his head.
Zhao Dong patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, Haipeng, I'll thank you on Xiaoman's behalf!"
"But we can't contact Xiaoman right now. If he calls you later, remember to tell him."
"No matter what trouble he encounters outside, let him go home first!"
"Just say, no matter what kind of trouble it is, my uncle will take care of it for him and tell him not to do stupid things, do you hear me?"
Hu Haipeng nodded and said with admiration, "Uncle, you are so awesome!"
Zhao Dong rubbed his head and said, "You brat, go to bed quickly. You have to go to school tomorrow!"
Before Hu Haipeng went back, he asked worriedly, "Uncle, will something happen to Xiaoman?"
Zhao Dong took a long breath, "No!"
When others went back, the sister-in-law rushed up in a hurry, "Xiaodong, what's going on? Why did you let him go back?"
"Did you ask anything?"
Zhao Dong was afraid that his sister-in-law would be worried, so he didn't elaborate too much. "I asked him clearly. I've already asked him for his address. I'll go pick him up in a moment."
As he said this, he gave his elder brother a look.
The elder brother understood and hurriedly helped the person aside.
Wang Meng waited nearby and didn't leave. When he saw Zhao Dong's face, he knew something was wrong, "Why, our nephew is in trouble?"
With that said, he handed Zhao Dong a cigarette and lit it.
Zhao Dong took a deep breath and said, "It's hard to tell. You can help me check someone else. Ai Xiao is also a student of Yucai Middle School."
Wang Meng patted Zhao Dong on the shoulder and ran to make a phone call.
After receiving the reply, Zhao Dong rubbed his cheeks, turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, you go back and rest first, I will ask Mengzi to take you back."
Sophie shook her head, "I'm with you!"
Zhao Dong couldn't say anything, "Brother, take your sister-in-law back first."
The sister-in-law was suspicious, "Xiaodong, are you hiding something from me?"
Zhao Dong smiled bitterly, "It depends on what you said, sister-in-law, how dare I hide it from you?"
"I have to pick someone up. Besides, I don't know how many classmates there are in their group. If they are all drunk, I can't just pick up Xiaoman, right?"
"If you two go over, how can you sit down?"
"You go home and wait, Xiaofei and I can go there!"
"Besides, you still don't trust me when I do things?"
The sister-in-law finally felt relieved and said, "Xiaodong, this is what you said. If you can't bring Xiaoman back, I'll blame you!"
As she said that, she looked at Sophie apologetically, "Xiao Fei, my sister-in-law was anxious just now and had a bad attitude. Don't take it to heart."
"When Xiaoman comes back, my sister-in-law will personally apologize to you!"
Sophie's eyes were a little red, and she stepped forward and hugged her, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? You are my sister-in-law, and we are a family!"
The elder sister-in-law smiled and said, "Yes, we are a family. Xiaoman, this little brat, let's see how I deal with him when I get back!"
The eldest brother helped her get into the car and showed a solemn expression when he looked back.
He was familiar with Zhao Dong's personality, but there was something wrong with that look in his eyes.
Zhao Dong nodded, signaling to his eldest brother to rest assured.
The group of people separated.
Sophie got into the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt before asking, "Zhao Dong, did something happen to Xiaoman?"
Zhao Dong started the car and rushed to his destination, smoking a cigarette at the same time.
After a while, he explained, "Xiaoman is not a child without serious problems. If he doesn't come home so late, he must be in trouble."
"Otherwise, even if he doesn't dare to go home, he will definitely call me!"
Sophie can still remain calm in the face of major events, but when it involves Zhao Dong's family, caring about her will lead to chaos.
She suddenly ran out of ideas, "What should we do?"
Zhao Dong said indifferently, "Get the person back first and then talk about it!"
Sophie bit her lips and didn't answer. At that moment, she always felt that Zhao Dong was a bit unfamiliar, and she couldn't tell him exactly.
Maybe it was his tone or the look in his eyes, but it made people very uneasy anyway.
The rare silence is like the calm before the storm!
…
Not long after, the car stopped at an old residential complex.
Sophie looked up and asked, "Does that girl live here?"
"But is it appropriate for us to just go to the door and ask?"
Zhao Dong lowered the window and exhaled, "What's inappropriate!"
Sophie also hurriedly unbuckled her seat belt, "Then I'll go with you and talk to you later if you have anything to say. Don't get into trouble until the matter is clarified!"
Just as he was talking, a white BMW drove over not far away.
The car stopped downstairs, but the people in the car had no intention of getting off.
It was dark in the car, and through the moonlight, two figures could be vaguely seen, entwined with each other.
Zhao Dong took out his mobile phone and clicked on a photo sent by Wang Meng just now. In the center of the photo was a girl with a beautiful face.
While turning off his cell phone, he got out of the driveway: "Wait for me in the car!"
With that said, Zhao Dong walked over slowly.
He took out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, popped one out and held it in the corner of his mouth.
He stopped and knocked on the car window.
There was no response in the car.
Zhao Dong knocked twice more.
Seeing the car window slowly opening, he held the flue and said, "Brother, lend me a fire!"
There was a half-grown boy sitting in the driver's seat, his face flushed as if he had been drunk.
He opened his mouth and cursed, "I'll lend you Male Gobi, get out, there's no fire!"
After cursing, the car window rolled up.
Zhao Dong stretched out his hand and looked down at the car. There was a girl sitting in the passenger seat. She was wearing makeup and her clothes were a little messy.
But it can be seen that it is the girl in the photo.
When the boy saw Zhao Dong looking around, he immediately became furious and said, "Look, do you believe that I will beat the shit out of you?"
Zhao Dong grabbed his neck with one hand, reached in and opened the car door with the other hand, and pulled the man out by his collar.
He lowered his voice and asked, "You are so impolite. Is this how your parents taught you?"
The boy couldn't help but said, "Who the hell are you? If you dare to touch me, do you believe that I will find someone to kill you?"
Zhao Dong used his palms hard, pinched the collar and lifted the person up.
The girl in the passenger seat hurriedly got out of the car and said, "Uncle, I'm sorry, he's drunk. Don't follow the rules."
Zhao Dong put the person down and turned around to look, "Are you Ai Xiao?"
Ai Xiao froze on the spot, "Who are you?"
Zhao Dong calmly replied: "I am Zhao Xiaoman's brother-in-law!"
Ai Xiao covered her mouth and took a step back unconsciously!
