The reason why I didn't prepare it separately for Aunt Mei is that I don't understand the other person's taste and it's difficult to like her.
Secondly, even if he really knows the other person's feelings, it is probably difficult to change this woman's view of him.
There are two fruit baskets in my hands. Although they are not outstanding, they are ordinary gifts that people can't fault.
Soon, the Mid-Levels Mansion was in sight.
This was the second time Zhao Dong came to Su's house. With Sophie by his side, the security guard didn't dare to stop him this time and let him go unconditionally.
Approaching the Su residence, Zhao Dong was fine. Although he was nervous, he couldn't say he was stressed.
Sophie was unusually flustered.
She lowered the window and let the mountain breeze blow on her face, and then she calmed down a little.
Courtyard No. 9 is located at the bottom of the Mid-Levels Mansion. It is slightly smaller in area, but compared to ordinary single-family villas, it is still exaggerated.
After passing the tall gate and passing a small fountain pool, we arrived at the place.
The call was made by Zhao Dong last night. He told Aunt Mei that he would bring Sophie back today.
He knew that if he didn't make this call, Sophie would definitely not make it.
On the phone, Aunt Mei hung up coldly, without saying whether she was welcome or not.
But judging from the nanny waiting outside, she probably had no intention of kicking him out.
When the car stopped, the nanny took the initiative to open the car door and said with a smile: "The eldest lady is back."
Sophie nodded. She was obviously going back to her home, but she was even more nervous than Zhao Dong.
He handed the gift to the nanny to take inside, and took the initiative to hold Zhao Dong's arm.
Zhao Dong felt the same and patted the back of her hand, then squeezed it to signal her to relax.
Come in.
To Zhao Dong's surprise, not only Aunt Mei was there, there were also many people sitting in the living room.
In addition to Aunt Mei, who was sitting in the main seat, there were actually two other acquaintances, but the relationship between the two parties was not very friendly the last time they met.
One of them is Su Changming, Sophie's second uncle, and his son Su Hao is on the side.
At the bottom is a young girl.
The appearance is somewhat similar to Sophie, but the style is completely different.
Sophie was as cold as ice, but this girl was as flamboyant as fire. She glanced at Zhao Dong a few times without blinking, and then a trace of undisguised ridicule and contempt flashed in her eyes.
On Su Hao's side, the enemies were extremely jealous when they saw each other.
He was the first to sneer and say, "Hey, who did I think it was? It turns out that the eldest lady of our Su family is back!"
"Didn't I say last time that I would cut off all contact with my family from now on? Why are you coming back today?"
"Isn't it possible that the lofty ambitions you mentioned at the beginning mean that you can't survive outside?"
"Are you coming back this time to ask for charity or sympathy?"
"I also brought a beggar here. Although our Su family is a wealthy family, we don't have the money to give alms to these poor people!"
Zhao Dong stayed where he was, having long expected that the first visit would not be too pleasant.
But after all, Sophie is here, and no matter how much the Su family hates her, they probably won't do it in front of her.
The result was not as expected. He still made some miscalculations, or he underestimated the degree of indifference of the Su family.
Such words were particularly harsh to the ears of an outsider like him, let alone Sophie!
Zhao Dong sneered, no wonder Sophie resisted in every possible way when she mentioned going home yesterday.
He didn't quite understand it at the time, but now he feels a little more distressed!
You really don’t want such indifferent family affection!
No one spoke, only the nanny said, "Miss, why are you still standing? Sit down quickly!"
Sophie didn't answer, so naturally Zhao Dong wouldn't move either.
Su Changming sipped tea.
Wu Mei's face was expressionless.
There is no warm picture as imagined, the atmosphere in the living room is weird!
