Urban Hidden Dragon

Chapter 2373
In the room, after Sophie entered, she saw an old man standing by the window.

After turning his head, the old man's temples turned slightly white, and even his eyes looked tired.

Sophie stood where she was and bowed again.

Not hypocrisy and affectation, but sincere thanks.

Grandpa Meng turned around, and said in a slightly majestic voice, "Get up."

Sophie got up and said, "Old Mr. Meng, I beg you to come out this time. The younger generation is so abrupt. Thank you for treating my sister Su Qing regardless of past suspicions."

"I know that a few simple words can't make up for the price Mr. Meng paid for it."

"Now I am not qualified to promise too much. If there is a need for the Meng family in the future, I will definitely repay the favor!"

Grandpa Meng stared at Sophie seriously, "I met you at the seminar that day, and you really lived up to your reputation. You are indeed beautiful. No wonder my granddaughter lost to you."

Sophie asked neither humble nor overbearing, "Mr. Meng, I don't understand what you said."

"Although there are often voices outside, they will compare me with Meng Jiao."

"But I really can't figure it out. Did the two of us fight for anything? Why did your granddaughter lose to me?"

Grandpa Meng said directly, "My granddaughter likes your husband!"

Sophie asked again, "Since old Mr. Meng knows that Zhao Dong is my husband, and he brought such words in front of me, don't you think it's a little bullying to me, a junior?"

Grandpa Meng continued to ask, "Isn't it true?"

Sophie said calmly, "Old Mr. Meng, it's not me, Sophie, who dares to act."

"Even if you admit it, it's okay. There's no shame in winning or losing emotionally."

"It's just that although the matter is this matter, it cannot be said that way."

"If I snatch something that belongs to Meng Jiao from her hands, then I will be the winner."

"But when I met Zhao Dong, Zhao Dong was single, I was single, and Meng Jiao was also single."

"Zhao Dong and Meng Jiao are not in the relationship of boyfriend and girlfriend, nor have they established a romantic relationship. To put it simply, they are just ordinary friends with a good relationship."

"On the contrary, it was me who first obtained the certificate with Zhao Dong and established the husband-wife relationship first."

"From the beginning to the end, I never regarded Meng Jiao as an opponent."

"So I don't understand, how did I win and how did she lose?"

"As for you saying that Meng Jiao likes Zhao Dong? I don't know about that."

"But there are so many women who like my husband, I can't treat every one of them as an opponent, can I? Then I can't live? I just live in intrigue all day long."

"Before, Zhao Dong and I were not married. If Meng Jiao could fight, it would count as winning or losing."

"But now that Zhao Dongying and I are married, if Meng Jiao comes to fight again, wouldn't it be the mistress?"

"The Meng family is a family of medicine, and Mr. Meng is also a big star in the medical field. It is inappropriate to say this from your mouth."

Grandpa Meng wasn't angry either, "You are honest."

Sophie shrugged, "I've always been frank, besides, I'm just talking about the facts."

Grandpa Meng continued to ask, "Okay, then tell me, how should we discuss this matter?"

Sophie said in an argumentative tone, "What does Mr. Meng want to hear? Is it a battle between winners and losers?"

"Destroying my marriage and successfully snatching my husband away from me, is this called winning? Otherwise, is it a loss?"

"Where is this winning? This is clearly the third position!"

"Although the relationship between me and Meng Jiao is not very harmonious, I feel that she is a proud woman and should disdain to do such a thing."

"Loving someone doesn't have to mean destruction, but it can also mean fulfillment."

"So, before Meng Jiao and I, there was never a winning or losing contest."

"Also, feelings should not be judged by winning or losing."

"I'm lucky to lose my life. If one day in the future, there is a woman who has paid more than me, and my husband recognizes her dedication, I can leave Zhao Dong."

"But it's not that I lost, but my fulfillment of Zhao Dong."

"What is losing? In order to achieve your own relationship, you have to destroy other people's marriage at the cost of it?"

"Whoever thinks this way first will lose, and lose completely!"

"It's done, it's glorious to lose, but it's not successful, it's ruined to lose."

"As for winning?"

"Emotional matters, how can there be any winners?"

"I never felt that I was a winner. When two people who love each other come together, what does it have to do with winning or losing?"

Grandpa Meng narrowed his eyes half-closed, "Just now you said that in order to thank the Meng family for their help, you can do anything in return?"

Sophie met Grandpa Meng's gaze, "As long as I don't violate my conscience, I, Sophie, will do whatever I ask for!"

Grandpa Meng said sharply, "What if I let you divorce Zhao Dong? Give my granddaughter a chance to compete fairly?"

Sophie wasn't surprised at all, but countered clearly: "First, I won't agree to such a thing."

"It's not that I, Sophie, don't want to keep my promise. Marriage is a matter between two people. I have no right to hurt my husband for my own promise."

"Besides, marriage is sacred, and I will not turn it into a bargaining chip."

"Second, even if I agree, Zhao Dong will not agree."

"Third, if Zhao Dong and I are really divorced, Meng Jiao will never have any chance!"

Grandpa Meng asked, "Are you so confident in yourself?"

Sophie nodded, "Not only do I have confidence in myself, but I also have confidence in my husband!"

Grandpa Meng was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "You really look like her!"

Sophie was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her head slightly.

Although Grandpa Meng didn't name her by name, Sophie had a hunch that the her that Grandpa Meng was talking about, if she guessed correctly, should be referring to her grandmother.

It's just that it concerns the elders after all, and Sophie doesn't know what happened back then.

I don't know the details, and I don't dare to make random comments, so I can only keep my head down and remain silent.

Grandpa Meng continued to speak, but his tone seemed to be a different person, instead of the sharpness just now, it was a little more kind that an elder should have, "Help me over and sit down."

Sophie supported Grandpa Meng respectfully, sat down on the sofa at one side, and poured another cup of hot tea for Grandpa Meng.

Grandpa Meng stared at Sophie.

Sophie didn't evade at all, she looked at Grandpa Meng calmly.

After a while, Grandpa Meng took the teacup, "You really look like her when you were young, even more like your mother."

Sophie's mood fluctuated slightly, and even her fists were slightly clenched.

This is the second time she has heard about her mother and grandma from other people.

The last time was in Tiandu, Old Chen's home.

And at that time, Mr. Chen also gave her a token, giving her the opportunity to hand it over to her grandmother.

However, now that the Su family and the Wu family are in conflict, Sophie has never had the opportunity to visit the Wu family.

Want to meet grandma?
It is estimated that she will have to wait for her to complete the bet with Wu Yao, clear her mother's name, and give her a chance to return to the Wu family in a fair manner!
