Sophie wanted to open her mouth, but Zhao Dong held her back under the table.
She endured it and did not speak after all.
The dinner was finished in silence. He didn't touch the bowl of tonic until Su Changtian got off the table.
Seeing Wang Ma clearing the dining table cleanly.
Sophie was disappointed and went upstairs first.
Zhao Dong said good night to Aunt Mei and hurriedly chased after her.
…
In the study room.
Su Changtian sat at the table, "Have you all gone to bed?"
Aunt Mei nodded, "Yeah!"
Su Changtian breathed a sigh of relief and motioned to Aunt Mei to bring the things in front of him.
Open the lid, the stew inside has just been heated and is still steaming.
He took a brief sip and his complexion gradually softened.
A whole bowl of stew was eaten clean by him in a few strokes.
After wiping his mouth, Su Changtian sighed, "Zhao Dong, this brat, is really capable. This is the first time in so many years that I see Xiao Fei surrender to me!"
"Tell me, why did my Su Changtian's daughter fall into his hands?"
Aunt Mei muttered, "So what? You are so hard-hearted!"
Su Changtian didn't answer and just remained silent.
Aunt Mei tempted, "Changtian, how about..."
Su Changtian's mood instantly darkened, "No!"
Aunt Mei said bitterly, "But I feel sorry for Xiao Fei. She is innocent in this matter!"
Su Changtian sneered, "Who is not innocent? Isn't Xueer innocent?"
Aunt Mei tried to argue, "But after all, it has been so many years. If my sister were still alive, I would definitely not want you to do this!"
"Besides, weren't you planning to give up before?"
Su Changtian interrupted, took a deep breath and said, "That's enough, you don't need to say anything anymore!"
Aunt Mei continued to ask, "Did you change your mind because of Zhao Dong?"
Su Changtian was silent.
Aunt Mei spoke fiercely, "Changtian, let me tell you, Zhao Dong is definitely not someone you can control easily, and he may not do what you want!"
Su Changtian narrowed his eyes, "Xiao Fei is his weakness!"
Aunt Mei's tone was complicated, "I beg you, let me repay this debt, okay? If Zhao Dong does something good, will Xiao Fei hate you for the rest of his life?"
Su Changtian didn't answer, "I'm tired, please go out!"
Aunt Mei hesitated to speak, her face looked responsible, and she didn't say anything more in the end.
…
On the other side, Zhao Dong entered the room and saw Sophie in a bad mood, so he told her a joke.
Sophie pushed the person away, "Okay, don't make trouble, I'm in a bad mood."
"Zhao Dong, tell me... am I a failure as a daughter?"
Zhao Dong objected, "No, you are the best in my eyes!"
Sophie found a comfortable position, leaned her body against Zhao Dong's arms, recited her shortcomings and said, "Just treat me as a treasure."
"My father doesn't like me, and my family is also wary of me."
"Until recently, I talked back to my father, clashed with Aunt Mei, and taught my second uncle a lesson. Even Su Hao and Su Qing were afraid of me."
"Don't talk about my seniority at home or in the company, I never pretend to be a fake person."
"In the past few days, they have been hiding away when they see me!"
"I heard them talking privately, saying that I was rebellious, unfilial, strong, and sometimes even unreasonable."
"They say girls are outgoing, so no wonder Su Hao doesn't want me to take over the Su family's class."
"If the Su family comes into my hands in the future, I'm sure everything will go crazy!"
"Zhao Dong, I really don't know, what do you like about me?"
Zhao Dong clapped his fingers and counted them one by one: "I like you a lot!"
"I like your frankness, sincerity, and straightforwardness. I like how you say what you say and never hide it."
"I like your strength, but also your unreasonableness and unreasonableness."
"I like your kindness and your hard mouth and soft heart."
Sophie asked like a child: "Is it true or false?"
Zhao Dong said seriously: "Of course it is true. In my eyes, you are like a diamond, pure and flawless, clean and clear."
"If someone gives you a ray of light, you can return it to a bright sky."
"It's just that you are too sharp and angular, and you can easily hurt others without realizing it."
"But I just like you like this!"
Sophie held Zhao Dong's cheek, "Why? Zhao Dong, are you a masochist?"
Zhao Dong honestly scratched his head, "Because I'm not good either. I'm paranoid, chauvinistic, impulsive, love to cause trouble, not handsome, smoke, and don't like to be clean... I have too many shortcomings."
"But have you ever felt that my shortcomings are all shining points in your eyes?"
Sophie suppressed her laughter and said, "No!"
Zhao Dong said seriously: "But I do, I like everything about you!"
Sophie snorted coldly, "You are here to coax me again with sweet words. Zhao Dong, tell me, what is your purpose?"
Zhao Dong hugged him tightly, "I'm not coaxing you, I'm serious."
"Actually, in this world, each of us has shortcomings, and we cannot be liked by everyone, but as long as we are kind-hearted and respectful, that is enough."
"Are you right?"
Sophie pushed him away in a playful manner, "You big-headed devil, stop giving me chicken soup for the soul!"
"Let me ask you, dad asked you to go to work on Zhongshan Road, did you really agree?"
Zhao Dong nodded, "Yes, I agree."
He habitually wanted to smoke, but remembered that this was Sophie's room, so he resisted.
Sophie noticed Zhao Dong's movements, grabbed the cigarette case, held one in her mouth.
The fire ignited, and she took a shallow breath, which made her choke and cough.
Zhao Dong looked at her with a smile, "Why do you still smoke?"
Sophie almost choked with tears. She fanned her nose and said, "It stinks so bad. I really don't know why you men all like to smoke..."
Zhao Dong smiled bitterly, "Then you still touch me?"
Sophie ignored it, took a deep breath, and then sealed Zhao Dong's lips!
Zhao Dong's head was spinning. The smell of cigarette smoke mixed with the unique fragrance in Sophie's mouth was as addictive as a drug.
Before she could taste it carefully, she flew away like a butterfly.
Put out the cigarette butt in the toilet, brush your teeth and rinse your mouth.
When Zhao Dong saw her finish struggling, he felt helpless and asked, "What are you doing?"
Sophie smiled and said, "Why don't you do it? I'll reward you!"
Zhao Dong was stunned, "It's so good, why are you rewarding me?"
Sophie said awkwardly, "I'm not in a good state, don't mess with me tonight!"
Zhao Dong was confused, "Is he in a bad state?"
He immediately reacted, "But in the afternoon..."
Sophie glared, "Oh, why do you talk so much?"
"To tell you the truth, I'm going to work the day after tomorrow. When you get there, be careful!"
"The shopping mall over there is managed by one of my uncles, and Aunt Mei is out of reach there."
"If he knew that you were the son-in-law of the Su family, he might not have a good face and might kick you out!
Zhao Dong sat up hurriedly and felt a chill on his back, "Wait a minute, what do you mean, your uncle and your father don't have a good relationship?"
Sophie sneered, "What do you think?"
Zhao Dong was speechless, "Emotions...is this a hot potato?"
