"She must have said this to others, not just to us, or else why would she speak so fluently, as though it just rolls off her tongue, as if she has repeated it many times before," Lin Zhenghao said.
There was another sentence he didn't dare to utter.
The words spoken by Lu Youxi herself also suggest that Lin Jingshen wasn't really spreading rumors before.
To put it accurately, Lin Jingshen merely believed what Lu Youxi had said; he too was a victim.
Given Zhou Shuyan's intelligence, he ought to have thought of this.
Not that Lin Zhenghao had any hope that Zhou Shuyan would consider Lin Jingshen a victim.
But at the least, Zhou Shuyan might conclude that Lin Jingshen wasn't intentionally spreading rumors; it was Lu Youxi who started it.
"My foolish son had been naïve and believed the words of Lu Youxi, spreading rumors that angered you," Lin Zhenghao said cautiously, "It made us realize how much you detest such rumors."
