Urban Hidden Dragon

Chapter 624 A Vortex

Sophie has also been busy all day, and she dare not take a break for a moment, as long as she has a little leisure, she will be disturbed by her disturbed mood.

She didn't know how to describe her current state of mind, and she didn't know how to face Zhao Dong.

Afraid of quarreling with him, afraid of arguing with him, and even more afraid of Zhao Dong asking her to choose between work and family.

Ambivalence!
She admits that she likes Zhao Dong, but she also enjoys the sense of accomplishment and belonging that her career brings her.

As Zhao Dong said, for the sake of the family, choose a relatively easy job and a relatively comfortable working environment?

She didn't dare to think about it, maybe she was a proud woman in her bones, and she was always unwilling to cling to the wings of a man, let alone drift with the crowd.

While thinking about it, the phone rang suddenly.

Seeing the caller ID, she connected without hesitation.

But what followed was silence, facing Zhao Dong, she suddenly didn't know how to speak.

Zhao Dong also thought about his wording, "How is your day?"

Sophie replied, "It's fine."

Zhao Dong asked again, "Are you still used to living in the new house?"

Sophie nodded over there, "Yes."

Zhao Dong asked a few more questions one after another, trying to open up the topic.

But no matter what he said, Sophie's response was only one or two words.

Indifferent and unfamiliar, there seemed to be an iceberg between them.

Even though he was so enthusiastic, he was also tortured to the point where he couldn't do what he wanted.

The mentality was out of control, and the tone became anxious, "Sophie, what do you want?"

Sophie's sensitive nerves were tingled, "What do I want?"

"Do you think that the current situation is all caused by me?"

Knowing that his tone was too heavy, Zhao Dong hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean that."

Sophie suppressed her emotions for a day, as if she had found a breakthrough, "Then what do you mean?"

"Zhao Dong, I was also a victim of yesterday's incident!"

"Brother beat Xu Huayang without saying anything. Do you know what my situation is?"

"Even my family members don't want to believe me and misunderstand me. What do you think my colleagues in the company think of me?"

"Do you know how I got here this day? Everyone poked me in the back, saying that I was promoted by nepotism, that I was Xu Huayang's mistress, and that I betrayed my body. Total location!"

Zhao Dong clenched his fists, "How dare they? Just wait, I'll go there right away!"

Sophie asked back, "Why did you come here? Make a scene like Big Brother? Then no one dares to gossip about me behind my back?"

As she spoke, her tone was a little self-deprecating, "Zhao Dong, sometimes I really doubt whether you can understand my current situation?"

Zhao Dong hurriedly said: "I can!"

Sophie said weakly: "No, you can't!"

"If you could understand my situation, you wouldn't have said that yesterday!"

"Let me resign? Let me leave Hanhai? It's easy for you to say, but do you know what it means to me?"

"It means acquiescing, acquiescing to everyone's guesses in the company!"

"Everyone will think that I have no face left because my true colors have been exposed!"

"The reason why I stayed in Hanhai was firstly because I didn't want to waste all my previous efforts and become a deserter, and secondly, it was to protect your face, Zhao Dong!"

"As long as I'm still in the vast sea, as long as I'm sitting upright, no one will dare to gossip!"

"Sooner or later, the rumors will be self-defeating!"

Sophie still didn't say a word. If her elder brother didn't make a big deal last night, she might not have given up her career for Zhao Dong.

But now after such a commotion, the vast sea has become a whirlpool.

If you want to withdraw completely, how can it be so easy to say?

Things have come to this point, no matter how much complaining is useless, today is just too much pressure.

Otherwise, she planned to keep these words in her heart.

What's the use of saying it?It just adds to the troubles.

After taking a breath, Sophie said again: "Zhao Dong, my tone was a bit too much just now."

"Give me some time, let me calm down, and let me deal with this slowly, okay?"

"I want to see you too, but right now, it's really not suitable for us to meet!"

Fearing that Zhao Dong would speak, she hastily hung up the phone, and she seemed to have lost her soul.

It wasn't until the office was knocked heavily again that she came back to her senses, "Please come in!"

Xu Huayang stood at the door, "I heard about what happened in the morning, I'm sorry, I didn't expect Gu Xiaolan to be such a person."

"If I had been more careful last night, I wouldn't have caused you so much trouble."

Sophie looked calm, "This matter has nothing to do with you, I should apologize, because Zhao Dong's eldest brother hurt you."

"Thank you for not pursuing it yesterday. Otherwise, I really don't know how to deal with myself in the Zhao family."

Xu Huayang couldn't stand her unruffled appearance, so he asked, "You really believe me, aren't you colluding with Gu Xiaolan?"

Sophie said calmly: "I love my husband very much, and we are going to hold a wedding soon, I believe you are not such a childish person, are you?"

Xu Huayang saw nothing unusual, "Yes, I sincerely wish you all."

Sophie asked back, "By the way, you are not recuperating at home, why are you here?"

Xu Huayang remembered the business, "It's like this, the partner has a project to add, and proposed to meet later."

Sophie nodded, "President Han has already greeted me, do you want to go there too?"

Xu Huayang spread his hands, "I can't push it away."

With that said, he stood up, "Okay, I'll ask the driver to drive and wait for you downstairs, let's go there together."

It's not easy for Sophie to refuse. In this kind of social occasion, it is easy for the partner to misunderstand the car sharing.

……

On the other side, Zhao Dong hung up the phone, feeling as if someone had planted a seed in his heart.

Although Sophie said just now that he didn't want to meet for the time being, he suddenly couldn't control his emotions.

Wronged for her, feel sorry for her.

Impulsively, his thoughts grew, and he went directly to the vast sea.

It's not that I want to meet her, but I just want to get closer to her.

The car stopped at Hanhai Building, he leaned on the front of the car and lit a cigarette, his restless thoughts gradually calmed down.

Not long after, a security guard came forward and said politely, "Sir, are you here to pick up someone? Parking is not allowed here."

Zhao Dong shook his head, "Leave after smoking."

As he spoke, he walked to the trash can, took two deep breaths, and then extinguished the cigarette.

Just as he was about to turn around and get in the car, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure walking out of the building.

Without distinguishing, he recognized Sophie with just one glance.

I haven't seen her for a day, her cheeks have lost a lot of weight, and she has become haggard.

Zhao Dong looked distressed, short of breath, and his mood fluctuated accordingly.

Just as he was about to step forward quickly, he suddenly found a car parked on the side of the road not far away.

A driver opened the door, and Xu Huayang in a suit got out of the car at the same time!
