Feng Yuanyuan shrugged and said nonchalantly: "No, actually I quite want to have a chat with you."
Sophie helped her roll up the backrest, moved the chair and sat down, "What are you talking about with me?"
Feng Yuanyuan pulled the quilt and asked, "Tell me, how did you and Brother Zhao Dong meet?"
Sophie smiled and said, "You seem to be very curious?"
Feng Yuanyuan said seriously: "Yes, I feel like you two are not from the same world."
Sophie didn't shy away from it. She picked up an apple from the bedside and while peeling it, told her how they got to know each other.
While we were chatting, it was getting dark.
Hearing the charm, Feng Yuanyuan exclaimed from time to time, "Wow, Brother Zhao Dong was so handsome back then?"
"That's no wonder, he can no longer see any other woman except you!"
"If I were you, I would definitely be devoted to him!"
Sophie looked at her, "So, how about you just give up on it?"
"I haven't had a sister since I was a child, so I will treat you like my own sister, just like Zhao Dong."
Feng Yuanyuan smiled deeply, "What if I don't want to?"
Seeing her pretending to be stupid, Sophie grabbed the apple and took a bite of it, "Forget it if you don't want to."
Feng Yuanyuan was stunned, "Hey, didn't you peel it for me?"
Sophie shrugged, "Of course not, I didn't have enough for dinner."
Feng Yuanyuan pointed, "I want to eat too!"
Sophie threw one over and said, "I'll cut it myself."
Feng Yuanyuan was depressed, "Hey, I'm a sick person!"
Sophie teased, "The way you talk now, you really don't sound like a sick person."
Feng Yuanyuan patted the bed, "I want to tell Brother Zhao Dong that you bullied me!"
Sophie stared at her and asked, "Do you think he will believe it?"
With that said, she opened the accompanying bed beside her and lay down on it with her clothes on.
Feng Yuanyuan was dumbfounded, "Hey, are you going to sleep now? Aren't you here to take care of me?"
Sophie closed her eyes and said, "There is a nurse to take care of you. I have to go to work tomorrow. You'd better not affect my rest!"
Feng Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows, "Sophie, then why are you staying here? Just to silence Brother Zhao Dong?"
Sophie opened her eyes with a serious expression, "Otherwise, will I really serve you like shit?"
Feng Yuanyuan laughed, "Shouldn't it be?"
Sophie closed her eyes again, "Feng Yuanyuan, you are thinking too much!"
Feng Yuanyuan was stunned and said with rare admiration, "Sophie, it's really fun to have an opponent like you!"
Sophie turned sideways, "Well, I hope you won't be disappointed in the future!"
…
the next day.
My sister-in-law finished breakfast and took her lunch box to the hospital. There was no communication at all during the whole process.
The eldest brother was not in a good mood, and because he was pretentious, he didn't say much along the way.
Arriving at the factory, Zhao Dong brought back many memories.
The eldest brother's factory is a machinery factory that specializes in supporting large-scale factories nearby.
Of course, this is not his first time here. When he was in school, he once took Yu Zhi and others to steal scrap metal by looking for his elder brother.
At that time, I was often chased by the factory security office.
Halfway through, the elder brother gave a brief introduction to the factory.
It turns out that the factory had already been restructured a long time ago and was later acquired by a private owner. Recently, its performance has been poor and it has been half-operated and half-stopped.
Unexpectedly, now that it is on the verge of bankruptcy, it will become more lively.
The factory door was locked tightly, and the few security guards inside felt like they were facing an enemy.
A group of workers outside were talking incessantly. When they saw the Zhao brothers, some looked away and some showed displeasure.
Others ridiculed: "Hey, isn't this Representative Zhao? He hid his head and tail all day long and finally came out?"
"Zhao Qing, don't think that this is the end of the matter. Since you are here today, you have to give us an explanation!"
"Yes, if I don't give you an explanation, you won't be able to leave today!"
Gradually, the crowd gathered, some people were gearing up, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger!
Zhao Dong stopped and looked at the person in front of him with a sneer, "Were you the one who went to my house to cause trouble yesterday?"
"My sister is still lying in the hospital right now. Although the person who hurt her has been caught, I am suffocating in my heart. Can you try to say something sarcastic again?"
"I don't dare to beat you to death, but I can still afford to break one of your arms!"
The man stepped back. It was not because he was timid, but because Zhao Dong was too fierce in the fight yesterday and left a deep impression on many people.
Seeing that they were frightened, Zhao Dong breathed a sigh of relief. He came here today to understand the situation. Although he was not afraid of fighting, the key point was that fighting would not solve the problem.
He looked around and said, "Since you don't want to fight, just calm down and explain things clearly first."
"My eldest brother has been a co-worker with you for many years. Don't you know what kind of person he is?"
"Is it possible for you to test your conscience that he embezzled the compensation money?"
A woman argued, "To put it nicely, if he didn't have any evil intentions, why didn't he show up yesterday?"
"Besides, if he didn't embezzle our compensation money, where would the mistress get his wallet?"
Zhao Qing was very angry. At first, he was afraid of being retaliated against, so no one was willing to be this representative.
It was also because of his sense of justice that he agreed to come forward.
I didn't expect that I would be criticized so much today.
I want to open my mouth, but I don’t know how to explain!
Zhao Dong grabbed his eldest brother and sneered: "I don't need to explain to you where my eldest brother went yesterday."
"If we had something wrong with us, we wouldn't have come here today at all."
"As for using compensation money to cover up the mistress, where is the evidence?"
Someone stood up and said: "Yesterday we came to the factory to demand an explanation, and the accountant in the factory told us that a total of three million yuan in compensation has been taken away by Zhao Qing!"
The eldest brother's eyes widened, "Nonsense, Accountant Yu told me that the compensation won't arrive until next week!"
The man sneered, "No way, we all saw your signature!"
As he said that, he took out a picture from his phone and said, "Zhao Qing, you are still pretending to be stupid! I took this from accountant Yu yesterday. It can't be fake, right?"
"The stub is in the factory. If you don't believe it, let's go in and confront him now!"
Zhao Dong took it and looked at it. It was indeed a receipt, "I received a compensation payment from Dahua Machinery Factory today."
There was no amount written on the back, but the signature was indeed in my elder brother’s handwriting, and the date was just three days ago.
Zhao Dong frowned, "Brother, what is going on? Did you type this receipt?"
The eldest brother looked at it and explained, "Yes, Accountant Yu agreed. He will advance 100,000 yuan and let me appease everyone's emotions."
Zhao Dong raised his eyebrows, "Have you received the money?"
The elder brother was stunned for a moment, "Not yet, but the check is in my hand. Accountant Yu said that there is no money in the account in the past two days, so I can just go to the bank directly tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to handle it!"
Zhao Dong smiled bitterly, he didn't expect his eldest brother to be so insensitive to money and too trusting of others!
He didn't even see the cash, only took a check, and he dared to issue a receipt!
Moreover, there is no amount written on the receipt. If the check cannot be cashed, isn’t this a clear sign that someone is taking the blame?
