Zhou Jinhai was left stumped for words, momentarily. The way she said it... He knew it was wrong. He never had any such thought but what if she was right? What if he was indeed selfish? Why did he wait so long for Darren to come to him? He could have easily gone to him. In his heart, he knew he never wanted to take anything that belonged to Darren. However, was there really a selfish part of him that wanted to hold on to everything that he was born with?
Xiu didn't even realize just how greatly she shook Zhou Jinhai with just a few words. She wasn't really trying to get back at him for anything by doing this. In fact, in her opinion, she merely stated the facts. As a wife, it was all the more necessary for her to make it clear what she thought of her husband.
"No wonder you make such a perfect pair with my brother," stated Zhou Jinhai in a soft voice. "You both have a sharp tongue. And you both know how to hurt."
