Urban Hidden Dragon

Chapter 7 Salt the Wound
Zhao Dong didn't have time to think any more, his soles propped up on the ground and rolled over.

boom!
A gunshot pierced the air violently, and the bullet whizzed out from the muzzle of the gun, brushing against his arm.

At the same time that the killer shot, Zhao Dong also shot, picking up a stone and throwing it at him.

The strength is not small, and the aim is not bad. The killer avoids the stone and then makes a second shot.

This time it went wrong, and the bullet splashed a spark on the ground.

Zhao Dong seized the opportunity, rolled in reverse, picked up Sophie and jumped into the woods by the roadside.

The killer cursed angrily, and when he circled around the car, no one could be seen.

He hesitated for a moment, but did not pursue after all.

It's not that he doesn't want to chase, but Zhao Dong feels very dangerous to him. He has solved many veterans, and this is the first time he has encountered such a difficult one.

The remuneration is limited, so it's not worth working so hard.

He dialed the phone and said in a different voice: "Boss Wei, he ran away, but he was shot, if you want to chase him again, you may have to pay more."

"No, you go out to avoid the limelight, and the money will be credited to your account later! What should I say, what should not be said, don't I remind you?"

"Don't worry, we've never met before."

……

The gunshot wound on his arm was still bleeding, Zhao Dong didn't dare to stop, and ran for 10 minutes with Sophie in his arms.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that the killer hadn't caught up, that he found a hidden tree and sat down.

He gasped heavily.

Sophie doesn't have much weight, and the intensity is not as high as that of weight-bearing training.

But now the physical condition is not good, the previous knife wound has not had time to deal with, and now a new injury has been added, and the physical strength is passing quickly.

Tore off a strip of cloth from the shirt, and simply tied a hemostatic knot, breaking out in a cold sweat because of the awkward posture.

Sophie quickly understood Zafar, hesitated for a while before saying, "Would you like... let me help you?"

Zhao Dong asked back, "Don't you wish I could die at the hands of that killer?"

"Why so much nonsense?"

Sophie snatched the cloth strip and tightened it in retaliation.

What the hell!

Zhao Dong's face turned pale from the pain, and he gritted his teeth in a daze.

Sophie wiped her sweat, "Okay."

Although the piercing was a bit ugly, the bleeding finally stopped.

Zhao Dong said silently, "Thank you."

Sophie mocked: "You know you're afraid, right? Maybe it's too late to send me back to Wei's house, otherwise, you don't even know how you died! I'm not scaring you, Wei Dongming, you, a little security guard, can't offend you." !" Zhao Dong was full of self-esteem, and he stood up on the ground, "Sophie, I know that you look down on me from the bottom of your heart, but don't forget, you are my woman now, sending you back? There is no door !"

……

On the road, Sophie didn't know where to lose her high heels.

Zhao Dong had no choice but to carry her behind his back.

Just like this, she still had a face of reluctance, as if she had taken advantage of the sky.

After walking for less than 5 minutes, a passing taxi came from far to near.

The two looked at each other and smiled in a rare tacit understanding.

After getting into the car, Zhao Dong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's really thrilling, if it's someone else, I'm sure I'll see Hades!
At the same time, he was wondering in his heart, who is Wei Dongming?

The gunman just now was not an ordinary killer, but a well-trained professional killer.

This kind of person cannot be found by spending money.

It seems that Sophie's previous warning was not groundless. If Wei Dongming wanted to kill himself, it would be really easy!

Just as he was thinking, there was a soft and delicate body beside him.

Zhao Dong turned his head and saw that Sophie was so relieved that she fell into a deep sleep.

She leaned her body on her shoulder, and the faint fragrance also penetrated into her nose.

Zhao Dong was very sleepy, but he didn't dare to sleep.

I chatted with the taxi driver all the way, and finally arrived at the place after half an hour.

He turned to leave, but he heard Sophie yelling, "Where are you going?"

Zhao Dong pointed, "Go back to the dormitory!"

Sophie hugged her shoulders and sneered, "Just go back like this?"

Zhao Dong looked down and saw that he was really in a mess. The security uniform on his body was wet with blood, stained with dust, and became heavy after drying.

Sophie didn't speak, but turned and opened the door.

People go in, the door is not closed.

Zhao Dong couldn't figure out her attitude, so he stood there in a daze.

Just when he was hesitating whether to turn around and leave, a sarcasm came from inside, "Zhao, if you dare not come in, send me back to Yunding Manor right now!"

Zhao Dong was annoyed, he didn't care about life and death, why should he be afraid of a woman?
As for sending people back to Wei Dongming?
Unless his head was kicked by a donkey!
Lifting her feet, she turned and closed the door. Before she could see anyone, she heard Sophie say, "Sit on the stool and don't dirty my sofa!"

Zhao Dong turned around and saw that Sophie was holding a small medicine box in her arms.

His heart warmed, and he stretched out his hand and said, "I can do it myself."

Sophie asked back, "Otherwise?"

Zhao Dong made fun of himself, took the medicine box and dealt with it briefly.

Sophie was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "You mean what you said earlier?"

Zhao Dong asked uncertainly, "What?"

Sophie asked sarcastically, "I made a vow before, and said that I would support me, so you forgot so soon?"

"Of course I remember."

"Who is Wei Dongming? I don't need to tell you that you have already seen it. Everything today is just the beginning. Do you really not regret it?"

Zhao Dong's eyes sparkled, "Of course I don't regret it, how about you?"

Before last night, he never expected that he would have any intersection with a woman like Sophie in his life.

But the facts were in front of him, and he couldn't allow him to retreat a bit.

Sophie is his woman, an indisputable fact, surrendering his woman to others?

He can't.

Sophie didn't reply immediately, she turned around and left.

After a while, she took out a bathrobe and a thin blanket from the room.

"The bathroom on the first floor is for you. I don't have men's clothes here. I just bought the bathrobe and haven't worn it yet."

When she reached the corner of the stairs, she paused, "I'll sleep on the sofa tonight, I'll think about it, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning."

Doomed to sleepless nights.

The matter of escaping marriage quickly escalated, and the entire Su family was flying like dogs and dogs. Wei Dongming's thunderous methods were like a guillotine hanging around his neck.

Cell phone calls one after another.

She turned off her mobile phone as if to escape, just wanting to fall into a deep sleep, and never have to face these disturbances after waking up.

……

The next day, good living habits allowed Sophie to get up on time.

After washing up, she habitually walked down the stairs. Halfway there, she suddenly smelled a fragrance coming from the kitchen.

She never cooks, and the kitchen at home is more like a decoration, and many kitchen utensils have never been used.

Looking back, there were milk and bread on the table.

With the sound of footsteps, Zhao Dong came out of the kitchen carrying two fried eggs.

He also saw Sophie, who was wearing pale pink pajamas, and her two slender legs kept overlapping as she walked.

Busy looking away, he explained, "I'm sorry, I used the kitchen without asking for your permission."

Sophie sat down casually, "It's okay."

After breakfast, she took out the bank card she had prepared earlier.

Zhao Dong didn't answer, and his face was indescribably calm. After thinking about it all night, it seemed that she had come to a conclusion.

Sophie broke the embarrassment, "Yesterday I had an awkward fight with my fiance, and I'm sorry to involve you in it. This money can be regarded as compensation for him."

Zhao Dong wanted to laugh, but sure enough, she left him yesterday out of impulse.

But think about it.

One is the aloof successor of the Wei family, worth over tens of billions.

One is a poor community security guard who cannot make ends meet.

If two people had to make a choice, a fool would know how to choose.

Although I had guessed it a long time ago, hearing these words come out of Sophie's mouth, it still hurts my heart!
Zhao Dong stared at those beautiful eyebrows and smiled mockingly, "Idiot!"

Sophie almost suspected that she had heard it wrong, "What did you say?"

Zhao Donghao didn't hide his sarcasm, "Don't understand? I say you're an idiot!"

Sophie slammed the table hard, "Zhao, get out!"

Zhao Dong stood up slowly, "Do you think Wei Dongming will let you go?"

Sophie looked up at him, "I know who he is better than you!"

Zhao Dong reminded, "You know better than me. You saw what kind of virtue he was yesterday. Don't you still have illusions about that Wei?"

It was as if the last fig leaf had been uncovered for Sophie. Huo Di stood up, "The one surnamed Zhao, we grew up together. If it wasn't for you, he would never have treated me like this!"

Zhao Dong didn't speak, but sneered, stupid woman!
Sophie asked angrily, "What are you laughing at?"

She couldn't figure it out, doesn't this guy know what a gentleman is?
Why do you always sing against yourself!

Zhao Dong shrugged, "I laugh at you for being stupid and naive!"

Sophie wasn't angry either, "Worried about me? Zhao Dong, don't you fall in love with me?"

Seeing that Zhao Dong didn't make a statement, she confirmed her judgment even more, "Hehe, I can tell you that it's impossible for the two of us!"

Zhao Dong felt depressed, turned around and left.

Sophie reminded from behind, "You don't want the money?"

Zhao Dong asked indifferently, "Do you think that everything I do is for money?"

Sophie spoke sharply, "If it wasn't for money, why did you help me? Don't say you fell in love with me at first sight. It was a misunderstanding that night. Even if I don't marry Wei Dongming, I will never marry you Zhao Dong!"

Zhao Dong was stunned, although what she said was true, it still sounded harsh.

It was as if someone had sprinkled a handful of salt on his wound, and it didn't feel good.

Everyone likes beautiful women, but reality is reality after all.

A well-educated wealthy daughter would never like a mediocre community security guard.

This is the reality he has to face!

Sophie continued, "I grew up abroad, and my thoughts are not so feudal. You don't need to feel guilty, and I don't need you to be responsible for me. Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhao Dong understood, but didn't know how to answer.

Sophie gradually took the initiative, "I am very grateful for everything you did for me yesterday, but I can't give you anything except money!"

After she finished speaking, even she herself breathed a sigh of relief.

Is it really impossible?
Zhao Dong descended like a god yesterday, filling her up instantly in a domineering and unreasonable way.

This kind of affection must be cut off in time!

The Su family is in dire straits now, tigers are rejected at the front door and wolves are driven out at the back door.

Sophie told herself over and over again that she really needed a man by her side, but this man would definitely not be Zhao Dong.

He is just a community security guard, and he can't support the sky above his head, let alone the Su family whose building is about to collapse!

After a long silence, Zhao Dong spoke with a slightly hoarse voice, "56 five!"

Sophie froze for a moment, "What did you say?"

Zhao Dong sighed: "Don't you want to give money? I don't want any more!"

Sophie couldn't figure out why this number was accurate to single digits, but she was relieved to hear that Zhao Dong was willing to ask for money.

She doesn't like to owe others, especially Zhao Dong.

Turn on the phone, the missed call reminder almost blows up the phone.

She ignored it, opened the mobile banking, and transferred the money according to the card number reported by Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong laughed at himself, "Okay, from today onwards, I will never have anything to do with Miss Su again!"

After the words fell, he walked away.

Sophie stared blankly at his back, suddenly feeling empty in her heart.

Before he could say anything, the phone rang suddenly.

Seeing the caller ID, her brows were furrowed together!
Asked on the phone, the tone was a woman, "Where did you go last night?"

Sophie replied calmly, "At home, I haven't gone anywhere."

"Then why didn't you answer the phone?"

"Sleepy, sleep."

The woman said in a ridiculous tone, "Sleep? Do you know that because of your willfulness, the entire Su family is flying like dogs!"

Sophie reminded her, "Don't talk to me in this tone, I told you a long time ago that I don't like Wei Dongming, the engagement banquet is what you insist on, and it has nothing to do with me!"

The woman was angry, "So you fooled around with that little security guard all night?"

Sophie sneered, "Words spread really fast, did you know so soon?"

The woman's voice trembled, "So you admit it?"

Sophie simply said, "Yes, that's right, I was with him that night!"

The woman almost roared, "Sophie, you are the eldest lady of the Su family, you are shameless, and I want shame!"

"This is shameless? He also lived with me last night. Do you want to give him the phone?"

The other end of the phone warned, "Sophie, you better not challenge my bottom line!"

Sophie ignored it, stepped forward to stop Zhao Dong, raised her hand and passed the phone over, "Answer the phone!"

Zhao Dong was dumbfounded, "Who?"

Sophie smiled brightly, "My little mother!"

As she spoke, she forced the phone over.
