Auntie Cao had been extremely sad, but now that she heard the conversation between Qiao Nian and Uncle Zhao, she seemed to have realized something. She slowly stood up and looked at Qiao Nian beside her. Her voice trembled as she asked, "Miss, are you saying that Old Zhao was hypnotized and his memories were tampered with? Is that why he did such a stupid thing?"
Auntie Cao's words were very ingenious. There were two layers of meaning.
On the first layer, she meant Uncle Zhao had done something wrong, but that wasn't his intention. He had been harmed.
On the second layer, Auntie Cao was saying that Uncle Zhao had been deceived into doing something wrong. Now, Uncle Zhao was like a puppet. A puppet wasn't in the wrong, right? Otherwise, she wouldn't have said that Uncle Zhao had schemed to kill Lu Qi!
Auntie Cao wanted to get Uncle Zhao out of this matter.
