Hearing the noise, someone pushed the door open and came in.
Zhao Li looked unkind, "Dad, what's going on? Someone is bullying you?"
The patriarch also stood up at the same time, "Lili, stop talking nonsense, why are you here?"
Zhao Li sneered, "I've been here for a while, and I was chatting with my elder brother outside for a while!"
Sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the room, the eldest brother asked defensively, "Xiaodong, what's wrong?"
Zhao Dong narrowed his eyes and said nothing, his emotions on the verge of exploding!
In fact, what the patriarch said just now is not unreasonable, and it also speaks to Zhao Dong's heart.
No matter how this matter is handled, once it gets serious, it will have a negative impact on Jiaqi!
After all, she is a girl, and people are intimidating!
In addition, the college entrance examination is coming soon, and if it is not handled well, it will affect the child's life!
Although the family left the handling of this matter in his hands.
But how to pursue this matter and how far to pursue it, Zhao Dong is still very confused in his heart!
He even had extravagant hopes that if Huang Zhiqiang and others came forward to admit their mistakes, apologize, plead guilty, and submit to justice at the first time, he would not necessarily hold on to this matter!
He can even help out and do his aunt's work!
As long as both parties take a step back, this matter cannot be solved, because Zhao Dong believes that his aunt is not willing to gamble with Jiaqi's reputation!
But what did the other party do?
Since the incident, everyone has been testing his bottom line again and again!
Intimidation and inducement, soft and hard, crooked and evil, all in different ways!
The amount of compensation has also been rising, from the initial 50,000, 100,000, 200,000, to 500,000 today!
What did they take this to be, a deal?
What do you think Jiaqi is, a bargaining chip?
From the beginning to the end, no one really cared about Jiaqi, everyone was considering their own interests!
On the surface, he pretends to care about Jiaqi, but behind his back, he is really sanctimonious!
It made Zhao Dong extremely disgusted and aroused his rebellious psychology!
This time it was Jiaqi's good luck. With his cousin coming forward to support him, the other party's attitude towards admitting his mistakes changed repeatedly, and he even hesitated to spend money to avoid disaster and settle the matter!
If it were a child from an ordinary family, what would be the outcome?
If Jiaqi hadn't been stubborn and would rather die than surrender, what kind of tragic tragedy would have happened in the hotel?
This is the real reason why Zhao Dong hates him so much!
Regardless of the purpose, using a woman's body as a bargaining chip made Zhao Dong feel chilly and shameless!
Especially since this matter was fueled by members of the Zhao family, it even touched Zhao Dong's bottom line!
Seeing that Zhao Dong's emotions were about to explode, Sophie stepped forward in time, "Brother, I'm sorry, I accidentally spilled the water and scalded the patriarch."
In front of the juniors, the patriarch did not want to intensify the conflict, so he hurried down the slope and said: "It's okay, I didn't catch it, I don't blame Xiao Fei."
The eldest brother was doubtful and then slowly withdrew.
Zhao Li had no intention of leaving, but pulled up a chair and sat down without any shame!
Sophie refilled her cup of tea and returned to her original spot.
He looked calm, acted calmly, and looked calm as if he was used to big scenes!
It was also the first time that the patriarch discovered that the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, who had always been secretive, was the real ruthless character, even more difficult to deal with than Zhao Dong!
Standing silently behind Zhao Dong, he didn't say a word, and he didn't show any sharpness, but every time he spoke, it was just right.
Check for Zhao Dong's deficiencies and fill in the gaps, and also control the direction of the whole thing!
The patriarch looked at Sophie and then at his daughter. After secretly comparing them, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was more than a million miles away.
