Chapter 12 Let Her Take the Blame

"He hasn't woken up yet and is lying in the intensive care unit, but all his indicators are improving. It's only a matter of time before he wakes up." The young nurse answered her enthusiastically.

Su Jinhui's heart finally settled down.

The ward became quiet, but the young nurse showed no sign of leaving.

"I don't need anyone here, you go and do your work first." A smile appeared on her tired face.

The young nurse nodded, stood up and took two steps outside, then stopped and turned back. "Are you hungry? How about I prepare something for you to eat?"

Su Jinhui didn't want to trouble her, but as soon as the other party finished speaking, her stomach growled.

Without waiting for her reply, the young nurse hurried out to get food.

After she finished washing up, she ran into the young nurse who was coming back with meat buns.

Although it was a meat bun, it was filled with Spanish mackerel and the bun skin was made of coarse sorghum flour, but Su Jinhui ate it with gusto.

It’s not delicious, but it’s very healthy.

When she was busy working in the hospital, she had to eat greasy takeout for three meals a day, and it was a luxury to have a bite of light food.

The little nurse's eyes were always on her, as if there was a flower on her face. She hurriedly asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"It's okay, I just admire you very much! We are almost the same age, but your medical skills are so superb! Everyone in the hospital wants to meet you! But none of them are as lucky as me, who is assigned to take care of you!" The young nurse raised her little face excitedly, full of pride.

After further communication, Su Jinhui learned that she was already famous on the island.

But she didn't know that the person who cared about her the most at this moment was none other than Su Lanqiao.

"My dear brother, I have searched everywhere I could. Don't you believe me now? The jewelry was really stolen by Su Jinhui!" Su Lanqiao looked at the messy house that had been searched, and a deep feeling of powerlessness came over him.

Su Xianjin still had some doubts in his heart and immediately refuted, "It's not that I don't believe you. You personally admitted that the jewelry disappeared after Su Jinhui left. Only you and Su Jinhui were there at the time. We even watched her leave. She only carried a small bag. Could it be that all six boxes of jewelry were in that small bag? Do you believe this yourself?"

This is also the reason why he would rather search Su Lanqiao than suspect Su Jinhui.

"Then how do I know where the jewelry is! I've searched everywhere I should look, and what good will it do if I seize the jewelry and you suspect me?" Su Lanqiao was indignant.

Su Jinxian snorted coldly, "The good thing is that you get the treasure, but I have to suffer with you! It's been several days, and I still haven't received the item from overseas. I'm sure my parents will get the news soon. Just wait, they'll come to call me to task soon!"

"What should we do... We can only put the blame on Su Jinhui first, otherwise both you and I will suffer!" Su Lanqiao's mind was spinning rapidly.

"Can my parents believe it?" Su Jinxian was shaken.

After all, they are both tied to the same rope, and the most urgent thing is to pass on the blame as soon as possible, otherwise they will never be able to clear themselves of it even if they jump into the Yellow River.

Su Lanqiao's lips curled up, her eyes sharp, "Then make up a perfect story so they can't help but believe it!"

"I'll leave this matter to you! If you can't make up a story and can't convince my parents, I will tell them the truth. At most, I will be blamed for being careless." Su Jin waved his hand, obviously not wanting to continue to worry about this matter.

That night, Liu Meihua followed Su Desheng and both came back with gloomy faces.

"Ah! Mom and Dad! All my jewelry is lost!" Su Lanqiao ran out holding an empty jewelry box.

Regardless of whether they received the news or not, she would take the initiative and expose the "truth".

Liu Meihua was shocked. "What happened? Was there a burglary at home?"

"What's the point of yelling?" Su Desheng was obviously much calmer, and looked at Su Lanqiao with a questioning look, "What do you think is going on?"

"I can't bear to see my sister leave home, and I haven't had the mood to dress up recently. When I opened the box today, I found that some things were missing!" Su Lanqiao's tears as big as beans rolled down her face.

"You mean the last time you wore jewelry was when Jinhui was around?" Liu Meihua immediately grasped the point.

This was exactly what Su Lanqiao wanted, so she quickly continued, "Yes... but I don't believe it was my sister who took it. There's one more thing my brother and I didn't dare tell you..."

"This girl, if she wanted two pieces of jewelry, she should have just told me directly. How could I not give them to her? How could she do such sneaky things?" Liu Meihua was furious.

Su Desheng tapped the ground with his cane and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

"She also took all the jewelry that we were going to send abroad. Not a single piece was left!" Su Lanqiao hesitated for a moment, "She said... that her parents owed her that. Just those few boxes of jewelry aren't enough to fill her stomach!"

"Yeah! That girl is such an ungrateful person!" Su Jinxian agreed at the right time.

Liu Meihua slapped her thigh, suddenly realizing, "No wonder I received the news today saying that I didn't receive the jewelry. Your father and I wanted to come back and ask you brothers and sisters. It's really hard to guard against thieves in the house!"

A gleam of light flashed in Su Desheng's eyes, "Why didn't you say it before?"

Just as he got the news, the brother and sister rushed to confess. Is it really a coincidence?

"We were afraid that you would blame my sister, so we thought that if she came to her senses, she would come back. However, so many days have passed and there is no news from her. My brother and I were panicked... It's all my fault. Don't blame my sister." Su Lanqiao buried her head deeply, blaming herself.

Liu Meihua hugged her gently, but the words on the tip of her tongue never came out. She had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

"We know about this. You can go back to your room first." Su Desheng sat on the sofa by himself.

Only after the brother and sister returned to the house did he wave and ask Liu Meihua to sit down. "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple! Jinhui saved my life. I would have given her anything she asked for, but she refused and only asked for an ordinary jade pendant!"

"Maybe she was pretending?" Liu Meihua speculated.

Su Desheng shook his head. "Then why did she say such harsh words in front of Lan Qiao? Isn't that contradictory?"

On the surface, it seems logically self-consistent, but when you think about it carefully, it’s full of loopholes!

But if it wasn't Su Jinhui, then the two siblings were lying together...

"Master, why don't you let Jinhui take the blame first! Otherwise, the two children at home won't be able to sleep at night." Liu Meihua's eyes turned, and a plan came to mind. "Although both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh and blood, there are two children here, so we have to take care of the more important one, right?"

Su Desheng opened his mouth, sighed deeply, and fell silent...
