Sophie stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her slim back looking thin and frail, which made people feel distressed.
She was wearing a coat and the same clothes she wore yesterday.
Not to mention taking a shower, I didn't even take off my makeup.
For her who has always been mysophobic, she never dared to think about it before, but now, she doesn't feel anything.
Her stomach growled, and she pressed it with her hand, and then she managed to control her hunger.
I didn't eat for a whole day, not because I was abused, but because I went on a hunger strike deliberately.
Yesterday, Aunt Mei didn't know how she got the huge amount of money, and even she didn't know about it.
The autumn wind swept away fallen leaves, quickly solving the crisis faced by the Su family!
The risk is not completely absent. At least in the near future, the foundation of the Su family will not be harmed.
It happened that Zhao Dong was not around, so Aunt Mei had her hands free and immediately put her under house arrest.
He is still protesting silently, just to escape from this prison.
But for the whole day, Aunt Mei refused to compromise at all.
Not even Zhao Dong made any movement.
Has he already given up?
Just as I was thinking about it, someone knocked on the door outside, "Xiao Fei, can I come in?"
Sophie didn't answer.
After a while, the door was pushed open, and Aunt Mei asked again, "Can I come in?"
Sophie mocked, "This is the Su family. You can even make the decision for the Su family. Who am I to object to your entry?"
Aunt Mei emphasized, “This is my home, and it’s also your home!”
Sophie seemed to have heard a joke, "My home? I don't even have freedom. How can this be considered home? Everyone in the family, not to mention those relatives, even the bodyguards and servants, look at me as if I'm on guard against thieves!"
As she said that, she turned her head and looked directly into those eyes, "Please tell me, does this feel like home?"
Aunt Mei avoided her gaze, "It's also for your own good. As long as you promise me to break up with that little security guard and never see him again, I can let you out now!"
Sophie refused directly, "No way!"
Aunt Mei asked forcefully, "How long will you continue to be willful? When you bring such a man into your home, have you ever considered the face of the Su family?"
Sophie sneered, "Why, treat me as a bargaining chip for marriage and trade goods like this, so that the Su family will gain face?"
Aunt Mei took a step back, "I said, I can stop interfering in your marriage, but this person must not be Zhao Dong!"
Sophie said stubbornly, "I'm sorry, Zhao Dong is my man, I will recognize him for the rest of my life!"
Aunt Mei raised her hand and said, "How dare you!"
Sophie raised her head, "You want to hit me?"
As she said that, she took a step forward and said, "Come on!"
Aunt Mei was helpless and finally put her hand down, "I advise you to give up this idea, he won't come!"
Sophie raised her head, her stubborn smile making people feel distressed, "Would you like to make a bet?"
Aunt Mei didn't answer, "It's useless even if he comes!"
"I know he relies on him, isn't he Xiong Chen?"
"But the Xiong family can't cover the sky with just one hand!"
"Do you know why our Mid-Levels Mansion has been in peace and harmony for so many years?"
"Do you think those at the door are just ordinary security guards? Let me tell you, they are Chu Tiannan's security company. The Chu family also has a military background, and the old man of the Chu family is still in office!"
"I asked about it. Back then, Xiong Chen broke one of Chu Tiannan's cousin's legs, and then he went to Tianjing to serve as a soldier."
"Although he has avoided the limelight, the two families have been at loggerheads over the years!"
"If Zhao Dong dares to come today, I can guarantee that he will be dead!"
"Without Xiong Chen's support, who is Zhao Dong?"
"It's just a bed bug crawling out of Jiangbei District, and it will be beaten back to its original shape in an instant!"
Sophie was in a rare panic. Although she didn't know who Chu Tiannan was, judging from Aunt Mei's tone, this matter was probably not unreasonable.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a dog barking outside.
