Su Changming said: "Although sometimes I don't quite understand what your father does."
"But I can see that he has you in his heart."
"Perhaps he has something to hide. If you have time, go home and see him and talk to him more. Is there any parent in the world who doesn't love their children?"
After leaving, the two walked directly to the parking lot downstairs.
As expected, Aunt Mei was standing beside the car.
Sophie explained, "Aunt Mei just told me that she wanted to talk to you about something."
"If you don't want to, I'll help you push it away."
Zhao Dong signaled, "Go to the car and wait for me first."
Sophie nodded and sat in the passenger seat obediently.
Walking forward, Zhao Dong took the lead in greeting: "Aunt Mei."
Wu Mei turned around, "Don't you have anything to ask me?"
Zhao Dong explained, "I can guess without asking that the woman Su Qing saw tonight should be his mother, right?"
Wu Mei didn't hide it, "Yes, she is Shen Jin."
Zhao Dong then asked: "Don't you want Sophie to know?"
Wu Mei laughed at herself, "With Sophie's intelligence, do you think she can't guess who this person is? What she wants to know is something I am willing and unable to tell her."
"In short, Shen Jin's visit to the Su family has nothing to do with Sophie. It's all because of what happened back then."
"The Su family owed Shen Jin back then, and it's natural for Shen Jin to want revenge. This matter has nothing to do with Sophie, and I don't want him to get involved."
Having said this, Wu Mei untied her collar, took out a pendant from her neck and handed it to Zhao Dong.
Zhao Dong took it and saw that it was a key.
Wu Mei explained, "This is the safe key of a private bank. The key is not in China, but abroad. It was left to him by Xiaofei's mother."
"After Xiao Fei goes there, with her identity and this key, she can open the safe."
"This key was given to me by my sister before the accident."
"My sister has told me that if Xiaofei wants to leave Tianzhou and is desperate, let me give this thing to her."
"As for the specific contents, my sister didn't tell me, and I didn't ask at the time."
"Although I don't know what is in this safe, I have a hunch that if Xiaofei gets the contents, it will probably change her fate!"
Zhao Dong nodded, "I understand."
Wu Mei sighed: "No, you don't understand."
"You don't know my sister, she is a very smart woman with no tricks left."
"At that time, not to mention domestic, even in foreign business circles, no one dared to compete with her, and no one was sure to beat her!"
"It just so happened that such an extremely brilliant woman died so cleanly in the end."
"I can't save my family, my husband, or even my daughter, and I can't leave any support for Xiao Fei."
"Do you think it's possible?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "It's not normal."
Wu Mei continued, "So, I have always had a hunch over the years that the contents of the safe are a double-sided sword."
"If Xiaofei gets it, it may turn into something that neither you nor I want to see."
"This is why I have been forcing Little Fido over the years."
"I would rather she marry someone she doesn't love, and just want him to be a rich wife who lives in peace with the world."
"As long as someone pampers him, loves him, and allows him to live a carefree life, that's enough."
"But until you appeared, all my arrangements were broken."
"I can't stop you from getting close to Xiaofei, nor can I stop you from rising to power, so I can only accept your existence!"
"If one day in the future Xiao Fei is desperate, you can hand this key to him for me."
Zhao Dong frowned, "Why don't you hand it over to her personally?"
Wu Mei explained, "When Shen Jin comes back this time, I have a hunch that many people and things from back then will also come back at the same time."
"What happened back then happened because of me, and I couldn't do anything alone."
"But don't worry, I will try my best to protect Xiaofei. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I will not let everything that happened back then implicate her."
"So, I give you this key."
"I don't trust anyone now except you!"
Turning around, Aunt Mei got in the car and left.
Back in the car, Wu Mei said directly, "Go to Wu's house!"
Ajun turned around and said with a worried look on his face: "Second Miss, you were waiting in the hospital yesterday and didn't rest all night. Go back and have a rest before going."
Wu Mei shook her head, "No, I'll just take a nap in the car for a while."
"I will sleep longer in the future, but I won't sleep now. I will sleep one day longer and one day less."
Ah Jun heard the implication, and a hint of complexity appeared on his face, "That is the life-saving means that the eldest lady left for you back then. I think the young lady may not need it."
"After all, Zhao Dong is by her side, so nothing can go wrong."
Wu Mei slowly closed her eyes, "Me? I am a sinner. I only seek redemption, not survival!"
On the other side, Zhao Dong drove Sophie home directly.
According to the agreement, this matter was not mentioned to Sophie.
Sophie is also a smart woman and didn’t ask any questions about the conversation they just had.
Since she had not slept all night, Sophie fell asleep halfway before getting home.
Partly sleepy, and partly relieved after learning that Su Qing's surgery went well.
She slept so deeply that Zhao Dong couldn't bear to wake her up, so he simply put his coat on Sophie and picked her up from the car.
At noon the next day, Sophie woke up.
When I got up, I saw Zhao Dong busy in the kitchen. Before he could get closer, the smell wafted up. It must be that soup was boiling on the stove.
Sophie was a little touched when she saw that Zhao Dong didn't go to work, but stayed with her at home.
He stepped forward and hugged Zhao Dong's arms from behind.
Zhao Dong smiled and said, "Are you awake?"
Sophie rubbed her cheek against Zhao Dong's back, "Wake up, what's simmering in the pot, it smells so good."
Zhao Dong explained, "Pig's trotter soup, I asked my sister-in-law for the recipe."
Sophie made a sad face and said, "I don't like eating pig's feet, is it okay if I don't drink it?"
Zhao Dong shook his head, "No, you haven't had a good rest these past few days. I'm stewing it to give you beauty."
Sophie said coquettishly, "Then you feed me!"
Zhao Dong smiled and said, "How old are you? Okay, go and wash up!"
Soon, Sophie came back from washing up.
Zhao Dong has already put the food on the table, and also pushed a bowl of pig's feet soup over.
It doesn't look very good, but the aroma is fragrant.
It's just that Sophie didn't like the taste and shape of the pig's feet, and it was a bit hard to eat.
In the end, Zhao Dong picked up the chopsticks and handed them to her mouth in person.
Sophie opened her mouth and tried to take a bite. It was soft and glutinous. Fortunately, it was processed very clean and there was no pig hair smell that she didn't like.
After finishing a bowl of soup, it was as if he had completed his mission. No matter how forced Zhao Dong was, he would never drink another bowl.
According to Sophie, she would drink less herself and bring the rest to Zhao’s mother for good health.
Zhao Dong couldn't do anything about her cunning, so he cleaned up and rushed to the hospital again.
Not long after getting in the car, Sophie suddenly said: "Zhao Dong, I have something to tell you."
