Zhao Dong, who had been silent all this time, finally made a move and patted the back of Sophie's hand, signaling her to let go of him.
Sophie hesitated a little, but when she met Zhao Dong's eyes, she finally slowly let go of her hand.
I can't describe the emotion, part of it is guilt and part of it is self-blame.
Since becoming Zhao Dong's wife, she has always thought about handling the interpersonal relationships around Zhao Dong, and she is not willing to put Zhao Dong into a dilemma at all.
Especially the brothers around Zhao Dong, Sophie was not willing to let them look down upon her at all.
The result was unexpected, but now Zhao Dong and Qi Sihai are on opposite sides because of her!
At this moment, Bian Xiaobo walked up and pulled Sophie aside.
Sophie wanted to speak, "Sister Bian..."
Bian Xiaobo shook his head, "It has nothing to do with you, it's just an excuse. This is a matter between them men, let them resolve it themselves."
As Zhao Dong stepped forward, Qi Sihai simply spoke out, "Brother Dong, I know they did something wrong today!"
"It's only right to apologize to the Xie family and pay homage to the two elderly people!"
"But if you ask them to apologize to Sophie in person, isn't that a bit much?"
Zhao Dong asked calmly: "Where did you pass?"
Qi Sihai reminded, "You know who Li Yang is!"
"Let's not talk about the relationship behind him. Just because of his status as the vice president of Company 5, no one can make him bow down easily!"
"If this person is you, I won't say anything. This is the respect you have earned with your life. You deserve it!"
"But what about Sophie? Why should she?"
Zhao Dong sneered, "Just because she kept the last dignity of the Xie family, just because she didn't let you break in today!"
"Qi Sihai, I know your purpose of coming here today very clearly!"
"But let me tell you the truth, you really should thank Sophie!"
"If it weren't for her, do you really think that today's incident would be just an apology?"
Qi Sihai frowned, "Do you know what you are doing?"
"For a woman, let the dignified vice president of the fifth company apologize in public!"
"If you really do this today, it will be like trampling the face of Company Five to the ground!"
"Is it worth doing this for a woman? Why are you doing this?"
Zhao Dong took a deep breath and said in a more complicated tone, "To be honest, I have always been unwilling to push Sophie to the front of the stage. I have always wanted to protect her silently from behind."
"It's not that I don't dare, it's not that I think Sophie is unworthy, but I don't want her to get hurt."
"You were right about what you said before. If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. Being my Zhao Dong's woman is not that easy."
"I don't want to put too much pressure on her, I just want her to be a happy, simple little woman!"
"When you are tired, your husband's shoulders can help you. When you feel wronged, your husband's chest can take shelter from the wind."
"You don't have to live for anyone. I hope she can do whatever she wants and be herself without any scruples!"
"But there is nothing I can do, there are always people provoking me over and over again where my bottom line is!"
"In that case, then I will follow their wishes!"
"I'm showing off my cards. Since I married Sophie as my wife, I will pamper her and protect her!"
"What is the fifth company? I want to tell everyone that if anyone dares to touch her in the future, I will not be able to stop me!"
Qi Sihai said no more, took a step back, then turned and walked towards the center of the mourning hall.
After three scents, he knelt heavily on the ground.
From an angle that no one could see, Qi Sihai murmured to himself. No one knew what he said, but when he raised his head, his eyes were slightly red.
After saluting, Qi Sihai came to Zhao Dong's side again.
Only this time, he didn't stop, but walked directly towards Sophie.
Sophie signaled Bian Xiaobo to let go of her, and walked up to him slowly alone!
Qi Sihai stared at Sophie for a long time and finally said: "Xiao Bo, Sheng Luan, and Xiong Chen are all arrogant people."
"Being able to gain their recognition, I know that you are a capable woman!"
"But Sophie, I still think you are not worthy of Zhao Dong!"
At this point, Qi Sihai's tone slowed down, "Sophie, if I said that I came here today, including everything I did today, to help you, would you believe it?"
Sophie was a little confused, "What can you help me with?"
Qi Sihai's eyes were sharp, "I'll help you recognize yourself in advance so that you won't be defeated by the cruel reality!"
"I want to tell you that a woman like you, apart from bringing trouble to Zhao Dong, apart from holding him back, apart from becoming his weakness, you will not bring him any help at all!"
"I know you are not convinced. There is no need to refute, and there is no need to rush to prove anything to me. Someone should come to Xie Jiang's parents' funeral tomorrow."
"When you see her, you will understand how insignificant your so-called pride and confidence are in my eyes!"
"When the time comes, you will know what kind of gap there is between you and Zhao Dong. It is not a world that a woman like you is qualified to contact!"
"After that, I hope you can let go and give Zhao Dong a way to survive, and also give yourself a way to survive!"
"Otherwise, listen carefully, I will destroy you!"
"You can complain to Zhao Dong and ask him to stand up for you. I'll be waiting!"
Sophie and Qi Sihai's eyes met, "Don't underestimate people!"
Qi Sihai smiled, took a step back, and then bowed to Sophie.
When he stood up again, all his expressions had disappeared, and people strode away outside the condolence hall!
Kuang Weiting followed closely behind and repeated Qi Sihai's actions just now, but the way he looked at Sophie was a little intriguing!
As for Li Yang, he almost walked the whole process with a dark face!
Underground parking garage.
Kuang Weiting and Li Yang walked to the car together.
Li Yang's face was dark, and he was on the verge of breaking out. "You want me, a dignified vice president of Company 5, to apologize to a woman in public? This Zhao Dong is really crazy!"
Kuang Weiting smiled and said, "Uncle Li, to be honest, I really admire Zhao Dong!"
"At least he did what I wanted to do but didn't dare to do. Regardless of his position, he is a man!"
Before Li Yang could figure out the meaning, he suddenly saw a person standing not far away, it was Qi Sihai!
Li Yang smartly did not step forward, but stopped in place with his head lowered.
Kuang Weiting walked over alone and said, "Brother Hai, I'm sorry, I didn't arrange this well today, so I got you into trouble."
"I also caused a quarrel between you brothers. I'm really sorry."
"Don't worry, I will go back and explain this matter to my sister in person. It is my own fault and I will never involve you!"
Qi Sihai turned his head and said, "Today's matter is not that simple, right?"
"Although I sincerely despise you guys who only know how to show off your skills, but I don't think you are that stupid!"
"Then the question is, what do you want to do?"
As Qi Sihai finished speaking, the garage was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop!
