Yet how come... Old Xiong and Xiong Zhi knew? And it seemed like they already knew it for a long time!
He was played!
Even more terrible, why were they only breaking it now?
Have they already ensured that he would have no way to refute and escape?
No, he must not admit it! He could pretend that someone else was framing him for this crime.
At this moment, Xiong De's experience all over the years had given him already an answer to his premonition, but he threw this fear at the back of his mind in denial.
Yes, yes, play innocent! It could not be considered a decisive evidence yet!
His shocked, pale face then showed disbelief and hurt.
"M-master Xiong, you must be joking. What terrible things are you talking about? I-I don't understand what you mean..."
"I mean you tried to poison me to death."
"Impossible! How could I possibly do that? Master Xiong, believe me, I am innocent—"
