She was in Zhao Dong's arms, but her heart was full of wounds. Sophie even swallowed: "Zhao Dong, it's not like that, no!"
"I don't believe my mother is that kind of person, I don't believe she is a bad woman, I don't believe she ruined the Wu family, I don't believe it was her grandpa who was so angry..."
"I don't believe it...I don't believe it..."
Zhao Dong hugged her tighter and whispered in her ear firmly, "I don't believe it either! My wife is so kind, she must have a mother who loves her like an angel!"
Sophie raised her head and said, "Zhao Dong, was my birth a mistake? Otherwise, why does everyone hate me so much?"
"Could it be that my mother hates me just like my father?"
"Without me, my mother would not have betrayed the Wu family. Without me, the Wu family would not have declined. Without me, grandpa..."
Before Sophie could finish speaking, Zhao Dong blocked her lips with his fingers and spoke more firmly, "There is no mother in this world who doesn't love her daughter."
Sophie asked almost desperately: "But why did she leave me? Why did she let me bear all this alone?"
Zhao Dong asked back, "Why are you alone? You still have me."
"Also, you have to believe that no matter what she went through back then, I think she must have protected you with her own life!"
"She must have sacrificed everything for you, just in a way you don't know."
"I believe that auntie will bless you in heaven!"
A strange light appeared in Sophie's eyes, "Is this really the case?"
Zhao Dong asked, "Have I ever lied to you?"
Sophie bit her lips, wiped her nose and said, "Do I look ugly when I cry?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "Well, it's so ugly that I don't want it anymore!"
Sophie burst into tears and smiled, "It's too late to regret, I will depend on you for the rest of my life!"
Zhao Dong wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "You are just too strong."
"From now on, don't worry about anything. Let me handle the rest for you, okay?"
Sophie said worriedly: "But..."
Zhao Dong nodded, "Don't worry, I know what you are worried about."
"I know you don't want to have a fight with the Wu family, and I know you want to clear your mother's name, right?"
Sophie nodded desperately, she especially enjoyed this feeling.
Many things often don't need to be said. Zhao Dong knows what she is thinking with just one look.
Zhao Dong slowly released her, "Stand behind me!"
After saying that, Zhao Dong turned around calmly and scanned the entire audience. His eyes were calm and his tone did not waver at all, "Is that enough?"
"If it's not enough, you can continue, I promise not to fight back!"
As the words fell, Zhao Dong's body stood on the spot like a javelin.
Under such an aura, the Wu family finally did not dare to continue the attack.
Wu Yinghua did not express his position, but Kong Ru was the first to yell, "Zhao Dong, take her out!"
Zhao Dong took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, I will leave!"
"But before I leave, I have something I want to make clear!"
"Neither Sophie nor I knew the truth about what happened back then."
"But no matter what happened back then, no matter who was right or wrong, after all, so many years have passed and the deceased is gone. What grudges cannot be resolved?"
"I know you have grievances, but even if you have grievances, you should not vent these grievances on a junior who has nothing to do with the past!"
"I also know that you want to repay the father's debt. Since Sophie has the blood of the Wu family, she should bear all this!"
"The truth is correct, but she is a girl after all."
"If I hadn't been protecting you just now, what did you want to do? Nail her into a pillar of shame, or disfigure her?"
"Your methods are really dirty!"
"With such a structure, I'm not surprised that you could do what you did back then!"
Kong Ru asked sharply: "Zhao, please speak clearly and listen to what you mean. Was it our fault back then?"
Zhao Dong asked, "Isn't it?"
"Since you have enjoyed the glory that my mother-in-law has brought to the Wu family, then no one in this world has the right to slander her, except you!"
"What is a family, and what is a bloodline? When one is prosperous, one is prosperous, and the other is damaged, this is a family! We are united in spirit and looking forward to spring together, this is our bloodline!"
"Let's not talk about the reasons for what happened back then. Even if my mother-in-law is really at fault, so what?"
"Who can guarantee that he has never made a mistake in his life, and who has never been frivolous when he was young?"
"Our Zhao family is not a wealthy family. I also made mistakes when I was a child."
"When I made a mistake, my mother beat me with a whip until my skin was bruised and I couldn't get out of bed for half a month."
"My mother also told me that if I go astray in the future, she will be the first to hand me over to justice. This is family morality. Then she will bring me meals every day. This is the blood of mother and son!"
"Let's talk about that incident back then, what did your Wu family do?"
"When my mother-in-law needed help the most, I immediately drew a clear line with her, severed ties with her, kicked her out of the Wu family, and didn't care about her life or death!"
"The entire Wu family has shrunk into a coward, and has stayed behind closed doors for twenty years!"
"You can share wealth and honor, but you can't share adversity. You are cold-natured and look like floating ice. This is the rule of your Wu family!"
"If a family like yours is not in decline, God has no eyes for it!"
Kong Ru argued, "We are exterminating relatives for the sake of justice!"
Zhao Dong ridiculed, "What a righteous man who kills relatives. Since you, Kong Ru, value your family so much, then what your son did today seems not to be glorious, right? Didn't it bring shame to the family?"
"Why didn't you sever the mother-son relationship with him? Why didn't you kick him out of the Wu family? Why didn't you confiscate everything he had in the Wu family?"
When Kong Ru was asked, her face turned ugly, "What's Xiaohao's miscalculation?"
Zhao Dong smiled, "A big mistake is a mistake, but a small mistake is not a mistake?"
"So what does it mean if you bullied my wife today? Is it a big mistake or a small mistake?"
"I don't care what you think, I just say one thing, whoever dares to touch my woman, I will kill him all!"
Kong Ru's face was full of sarcasm, "Zhao, are you crazy?"
"My son-in-law is the boss of Company Seven. How can you have the confidence to say this? Are you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue?"
Zhao Dong smiled and said, "You can call me crazy and I don't care. You can also disbelieve me and I won't explain."
"But I still have to make a statement today. I will find out the truth about that year."
"If all the mistakes are related to my mother-in-law, I will repay everything she owes the Wu family!"
"But if you let me know that there is something hidden behind everything that happened back then, if you let me know that you will make mistakes and add insult to injury."
"Everyone who had a hand in attacking my wife just now, and everyone who had a hand in that year, count them all. I want you to kowtow and admit your mistake in front of my mother-in-law's tomb and at the feet of my wife!"
"I've said everything I need to say, and since you won't stop me, I'll leave."
"But listen carefully, Wu family, I will come again!"?
"When I come back next time, I will have complaints and revenge. I hope you can still be as tough as today!"
After saying that, Zhao Dong took Sophie and strode away without looking back!
Outside the gate, a figure walked towards them and blocked their path!
