Chapter 7 Salt the Wound

Zhao Dong didn't have time to think any more. He put his feet on the ground and rolled over.

Bang!

A gunshot violently penetrated the air, and the bullet whirled out of the muzzle and grazed his arm.

When the killer fired, Zhao Dong also took action, picked up a stone and threw it at him.

The force is not small and the accuracy is good. The killer avoids the stone and fires the second shot.

This time the shot went wrong, and the bullet sent a spark on the ground.

Zhao Dong seized the opportunity, rolled in the opposite direction, picked up Sophie and jumped into the woods on the roadside.

The killer cursed angrily, and when he walked around the car, no one could be seen.

He hesitated for a moment and did not pursue it after all.

It wasn't that he didn't want to chase him, but that Zhao Dong felt very dangerous to him. He had dealt with many veterans before, but this was the first time he encountered such a difficult one.

The remuneration is limited, so it's not worth the effort.

He dialed his cell phone and said in a different voice: "Boss Wei, he ran away, but he was shot once. If we chase him again, I'm afraid you'll have to pay more."

"No, you go out and avoid the limelight first, and the money will be credited to your account later! You don't need me to remind you what you should say and what you shouldn't say?"

"Don't worry, we have never met."



The gunshot wound on his arm was still bleeding. Zhao Dong did not dare to stop and ran for ten minutes with Sophie in his arms.

It wasn't until he was sure that the killer hadn't caught up that he found a hidden tree and sat down.

He was breathing heavily.

Sophie doesn't have much weight, and it's not as intense as weight-bearing training.

However, his physical condition is not good now. He had not had time to deal with the previous stab wound, but now he has a new injury, and his physical strength is disappearing very quickly.

He tore a piece of cloth from his shirt and tied a simple hemostatic knot. He broke out in a cold sweat because of the awkward posture and pain.

Sophie quickly understood Zafa and hesitated before saying: "Do you want... let me help you?"

Zhao Dong asked back, "Don't you wish I would die in the hands of that killer?"

"Why is there so much nonsense?"

Sophie grabbed the piece of cloth and tightened it in retaliation.

Damn it!

Zhao Dong's face turned pale in pain, and he gritted his teeth in shock.

Sophie wiped her sweat and said, "Okay."

Although the puncture was a bit ugly, the bleeding finally stopped.

Zhao Dong said silently, "Thank you."

Sophie mocked: "You know you're afraid, right? It might be too late to send me back to the Wei family now, otherwise, you won't even know how you died! I'm not trying to scare you, Wei Dongming, you are not someone a little security guard can offend."

!" Zhao Dong was so proud that he stood up on the ground, "Sophie, I know you look down on me from the bottom of your heart, but don't forget that you are my woman now. I have no way to send you back?

!”



When they came to the highway, Sophie's high heels had been lost somewhere.

Zhao Dong had no choice but to carry her on his back.

Even then, she still looked reluctant, as if she had taken a huge advantage.

After walking for less than five minutes, a passing taxi approached from far away.

The two looked at each other and smiled in a rare tacit understanding.

After getting in the car, Zhao Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was so thrilling. If it had been anyone else, he would have gone to meet the King of Hell!

At the same time, he was also wondering in his heart, who is Wei Dongming?

The gunman just now was no ordinary killer, but a well-trained professional killer.

This kind of person cannot be found with money.

It seems that Sophie's previous warning was not groundless. If Wei Dongming wanted to kill himself, it would be really easy!

Just as I was thinking about it, a soft and delicate body appeared next to me.

Zhao Dong turned around and saw that Sophie was relieved and fell into a deep sleep.

She leaned her body on her shoulder, and the faint fragrance penetrated into her nose.

Zhao Dong was so sleepy that he didn't dare to sleep.

I chatted with the taxi driver all the way and finally got to the place half an hour later.

He turned to leave, but heard Sophie yell, "Where are you going?"

Zhao Dong pointed, "Go back to the dormitory!"

Sophie hugged her shoulders and sneered, "Just go back like this?"

Zhao Dong looked down and saw that he was indeed in a miserable state. The security uniform on his body was wet with blood and stained with dust. After it dried, it became heavy and heavy.

Sophie said nothing and turned to open the door.

When people go in, the door is not closed.

Zhao Dong was unsure of her attitude and stood there stunned.

Just when he was hesitating to turn around and leave, a sarcastic voice came from inside, "Zhao, if you dare not come in, take me back to Yunding Manor now, immediately!"

Zhao Dong was upset, he didn't care about life or death, why should he be afraid of a woman?

As for sending people back to Wei Dongming?

Unless he gets kicked in the head by a donkey!

He walked in, turned around and closed the door. Before he saw anyone, he heard Sophie say, "Sit on the stool and don't make my sofa dirty!"

Zhao Dong turned around and saw that Sophie was holding a small medicine box in her arms.

His heart felt warm, he stretched out his hand and said, "I can do it myself."

Sophie asked, "What else?"

Zhao Dong asked for trouble and took the medicine box and handled it briefly.

Sophie was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Were you serious about what you said before?"

Zhao Dong asked uncertainly, "What?"

Sophie asked sarcastically, "You made a vow before and said you would support me, but you forgot it so quickly?"

"Of course I remember."

"Who is Wei Dongming? You have seen it without me telling you. Everything today is just the beginning. Do you really not regret it?"

Zhao Dong's eyes were bright, "Of course I don't regret it, what about you?"

Before last night, he had never expected to have any interaction with a woman like Sophie in this life.

But the facts were before his eyes, and there was no room for him to retreat even a little bit.

Sophie is his woman, it is an indisputable fact, giving up your woman to others?

He can't do it.

Sophie did not reply immediately and turned around to leave.

After a while, she took out a bathrobe and a thin blanket from the room.

"The bathroom on the first floor is for you to use. I don't have men's clothes here. I bought a new bathrobe and haven't worn it yet."

When she reached the corner of the stairs, she paused and said, "I'll sleep on the sofa tonight. I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow morning."

Destined to have a sleepless night.

The matter of escaping from marriage quickly escalated, and the entire Su family was in a state of panic. Wei Dongming's thunderous methods were like a guillotine hanging around his neck.

Cell phone calls come one after another.

She turned off her cell phone as if to escape, just wanting to fall asleep and never have to face these distractions again when she woke up.



The next day, Sophie's good living habits allowed Sophie to get up on time.

After washing, she walked down the stairs as a habit. Halfway there, she suddenly smelled a scent coming from the kitchen.

She never cooks, the kitchen at home is more like a decoration, and many kitchen utensils are never used.

When I turned around, I saw milk and bread on the dining table.

The sound of footsteps was heard, and Zhao Dong walked out of the kitchen with two fried eggs.

He also saw Sophie, who was wearing light pink pajamas. As she walked, her two slender calves kept crossing each other.

He quickly looked away and explained, "Sorry, I used the kitchen without asking for your permission."

Sophie sat down casually and said, "It doesn't matter."

After finishing breakfast, she took out the bank card she had prepared earlier.

Zhao Dong didn't answer, his face was indescribably calm. After thinking about it all night, it seemed that she had come up with the result.

Sophie broke the embarrassment and said, "I had a quarrel with my fiancé yesterday, and I'm sorry to involve you. This money is to compensate you for him."

Zhao Dong wanted to laugh. Sure enough, she left him on impulse yesterday.

But think about it.

One is the high-ranking successor of the Wei family, worth over 10 billion.

One is a poor community security guard who cannot make ends meet.

If two people have to make a choice, even a fool knows how to choose.

Although I had already guessed it, hearing these words come out of Sophie's mouth still made my heart ache!

Zhao Dong stared at those beautiful eyebrows and smiled mockingly, "Idiot!"

Sophie almost suspected that she heard wrongly, "What did you say?"

Zhao Donghao did not hide his sarcasm, "Don't you understand? I call you an idiot!"

Sophie slapped the table hard, "Zhao, get out of here!"

Zhao Dong stood up slowly, "Do you think Wei Dongming will let you go?"

Sophie looked up at him, "I know who he is better than you!"

Zhao Dong reminded, "You know better than me. You saw what kind of virtue he had yesterday. Don't you still have illusions about the man named Wei?"

As if the last fig leaf had been lifted off, Sophie stood up and said, "Zhao, we grew up together. If it weren't for you, he would never do this to me!"

Zhao Dong didn't say anything, but sneered, stupid woman!

Sophie asked angrily, "Why are you laughing?"

She couldn't understand, didn't this guy know what gentlemanly behavior was?

Why do you always contradict yourself?

Zhao Dong shrugged, "It sounds silly and naive to laugh at you!"

Sophie was not angry, "Worried about me? Zhao Dong, are you falling in love with me?"

Seeing that Zhao Dong did not express his position, she confirmed her judgment even more, "Haha, I can tell you that it is impossible for the two of us!"

Zhao Dong felt depressed and turned around to leave.

Sophie reminded from behind, "You don't want the money?"

Zhao Dong asked indifferently, "Do you think everything I do is just for money from beginning to end?"

Sophie spoke sharply, "If it wasn't for money, why did you help me? Don't ever say you fell in love with me at first sight. It was a misunderstanding that night. Even if I don't marry Wei Dongming, I will never marry you Zhao Dong!"

Zhao Dong was stunned. Although what she said was true, it still sounded harsh.

It was like someone sprinkled a handful of salt on his wound, and it didn't feel good.

No one dislikes beautiful women, but reality is reality after all.

A highly educated wealthy daughter will never fall in love with a mediocre community security guard.

This is the reality he must face!

Sophie continued, "I grew up abroad, and my thoughts are not so feudal. You don't have to feel guilty, and I don't need you to be responsible for me. Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhao Dong understood, but didn't know how to answer the question.

Sophie gradually took the initiative, "I'm very grateful for everything you did for me yesterday, but I can't give you anything except money!"

After saying that, even she herself breathed a sigh of relief.

Is it really impossible?

Yesterday, Zhao Dong descended like a god from heaven, filling her whole body instantly in a domineering and unreasonable way.

This kind of sentiment must be cut off immediately!

The Su family is now in a precarious situation. The tiger is rejected at the front door and the wolf is driven out at the back door.

Sophie warned herself over and over again that she did need a man by her side, but this man would definitely not be Zhao Dong.

He is just a community security guard who cannot support the sky above his head, let alone the Su family whose building is about to collapse!

After being silent for a while, Zhao Dong spoke, his voice slightly hoarse, "Five hundred and sixty-eight thousand, four hundred and twenty-five!"

Sophie was stunned for a moment, "What did you say?"

Zhao Dong sighed: "Don't you want to give me money? I don't want even one more cent!"

Sophie couldn't figure out why this number was accurate to single digits, but when she heard that Zhao Dong was willing to ask for money, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She doesn't like to owe others, especially Zhao Dong.

When I turned on my phone, the missed call reminder almost blew up the phone.

She ignored it, opened mobile banking, and transferred the money according to the card number reported by Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong laughed at himself, "Well, from today on, I have nothing to do with Miss Su anymore!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked away.

Sophie stared at his back blankly, suddenly feeling empty in her heart.

Before he could say anything, the phone suddenly rang.

When she saw the caller ID, she frowned!

The question on the phone was that of a woman, "Where did you go last night?"

Sophie replied calmly, "At home, not going anywhere."

"Then why don't you answer the phone?"

"I'm sleepy, go to sleep."

The woman said in a tone of laughter, "Sleep? Do you know that because of your willfulness, the entire Su family is in a state of chaos?"

Sophie reminded her, "Don't talk to me in this tone. I've told you a long time ago that I don't like Wei Dongming. The engagement party is what you insisted on, and it has nothing to do with me!"

The woman was angry, "So you just spent the night fooling around with that little security guard?"

Sophie sneered, "The news spread really fast. Did you know it so soon?"

The woman's voice trembled, "So you admit it?"

Sophie simply said, "Yes, that's right, I was with him that night!"

The woman almost roared, "Sophie, you are the eldest lady of the Su family. You are shameless, but I still want shame!"

"Isn't this shameless? He stayed at my place last night. Do you want to give him your phone number?"

The other end of the phone warned, "Sophie, you'd better not challenge my bottom line!"

Sophie ignored it, stepped forward to stop Zhao Dong, raised her hand and handed the phone over, "Answer the phone!"

Zhao Dong was dumbfounded, "Who?"

Sophie smiled brightly, "My little mother!"

With that said, she pushed the phone into her hand.
