788 Hatred Needs No Reason

The room instantly engulfed in such a dense silence that one could hear the ticking of the clock on the wall. Xin Zimen didn't know what to think of this situation. Did he hear it wrong? If he didn't hear wrong, why it sounded so wrong?

He opened his mouth several times to say something but no sound managed to come out. He was truly at a loss for words right now. 

"I think she misspoke," said Xin Zimen finally with a nod. Whether he was telling it to Xiao Li or to himself was uncertain. But it sounded like he was convincing himself though. Or at least was trying to.

"There is another possibility," Xin Kuan also voiced out attracting the attention of both father and son. "We all have seen her mental state just now. It's very possible that her hatred for Chen Xiu incited her to act against Bai Xiu. Because she confused both of them."

"Uncle Kuan," Xiao Li spoke. "Didn't she sound too confident for someone who was just going through a confusing phase?"
