Chapter 209 The Vanished Necklace



Lin's mother and father both looked at Lin Piaoxue. Lin Piaoxue had always wanted the necklace. Could it be that she stole it while Qinghuan was unconscious?

With a displeased expression, Lin's father asked, "Piaoxue, did you take Qinghuan's necklace?"

"Piaoxue, return the necklace to Qinghuan. It was specially left for Qinghuan by your grandmother. You can't take it without permission," Lin's mother said.

"I didn't see Lin Qinghuan wearing a necklace, much less take Lin Qinghuan's necklace," Lin Piaoxue said angrily.

Mr. Lin frowned and said, "If you didn't take it, why is the necklace gone?"

"How should I know?" Lin Piaoxue said as she got up from the ground, clutching her wrist, and walked out of the room.

Lin Qinghuan frowned slightly. Judging from Lin Piaoxue's expression, the necklace didn't seem to be hers.

The necklace wouldn't just disappear for no reason!

"Mom, when you left, was the necklace still around my neck?"

"Qinghuan, when I helped you wash this morning, the necklace was still around your neck," Lin's mother said definitively.

“Miss Qinghuan, Wei Xiao and I are taking turns watching over you. We only left the ward for about ten minutes. Will you fall onto the bed?” Lin Fu said.

Lin Qinghuan touched the injury on her face, then picked up the clothes she had just changed out of. Looking at the bloodstains on the clothes, a glint flashed in her beautiful eyes. She smiled and looked at Lin Fu, "It might have fallen on the bed. I'll look for it on the bed later."

Looking at the injury on Lin Qinghuan's face, Grandpa Lin said with heartache, "Qinghuan, after we pay our respects to your grandmother, I will take you back to the city and find the best doctor to heal your injury. Also, stay away from your sister so she won't try to harm you every other day."

"Thank you, Grandpa. From now on, I'll live a life of luxury with you, without having to do any work, and I can dress up beautifully every day," Lin Qinghuan said with a smile.

"Grandpa has money, he'll hire two more nannies to take care of you," Grandpa Lin said with a smile.

Lin Qinghuan exclaimed, "Grandpa, haven't I gone from a country bumpkin to a rich young lady?"

Grandpa Lin glared at Lin's father unhappily, then said, "My granddaughter, Lin Zhenghao's granddaughter, should enjoy a life of happiness from birth. It's because Grandpa came back late that you suffered so much."

Lin's father had unspeakable suffering; he had his reasons, but he couldn't say them.

Seeing the tired look on Grandpa Lin's face, Lin Fu said with concern, "Boss, I'll look after things here. You go back to the hotel and rest. We can talk about it tomorrow."

Seeing the fatigue on Grandpa Lin's face, Lin Qinghuan quickly said, "Grandpa, I'm fine now. You should go back to the hotel and rest. Don't overwork yourself."

Grandpa Lin was indeed tired. "Then I'll go back to the hotel to rest first, and I'll come see you again tomorrow."

"Dad, the house is a mess because Lin Yu smashed it up. We need to go back and clean it up. Could you ask Lin Weihong to take us back?" Lin's mother asked with a fawning smile.

"Wait," Grandpa Lin said.

"Thank you, Father," Lin's mother said.

After Grandpa Lin left, Lin Qinghuan looked at Lin Fu and said, "Brother Lin, could you please go out and keep watch for me? I have some questions to ask my father. Also, from now on, when you call me by my name, please drop the word 'Miss'."

Lin Fu smiled and nodded, walked out of the ward, and closed the ward door behind him.

Lin Qinghuan looked at her father and asked frankly, "Father, why do you think I am your daughter?"

Lin's father was taken aback when he heard this; he hadn't expected Lin Qinghuan to ask such a direct question.

After a long pause, Lin's father sighed and said, "You've always been smart, confident, and clever since you were little. You can learn anything quickly. Even if you hit your head and lost your memory or became stupid, your nature and habits shouldn't change."

“When you were seven years old, you hit your head and fell into a coma. When you woke up, the way you looked at people and your habits had changed. Your grandmother could tell at a glance that your body was possessed by a wandering ghost. She kept waiting for you to come back, but you were gone for nine years. She didn’t see you come back. She thought of you until she died.”

At this point, Lin's father mysteriously leaned close to Lin Qinghuan's ear and whispered, "Your grandmother left you a lot of treasures, which only your uncle and I know about. Those treasures can ensure you have enough to eat and wear for the rest of your life. It's not that you're marrying above your station with Wei Xiao, it's that Wei Xiao is marrying above his station with you."

Lin Qinghuan was completely stunned by her father's words.

Holy crap! Grandma Lin's eyes are too sharp. She saw at a glance that her body had been possessed. No wonder she had been watching Lin Piaoxue bully her with a cold eye. They were waiting for the wandering ghost that had possessed her body to leave on its own when it couldn't stand it anymore.

“Father, Lin Piaoxue is vicious. You can’t expect me to live peacefully with her. If she tries to harm me again, I will not be merciful.”

Lin's father said helplessly, "Piaoxue has been spoiled by your mother."

A mocking smile appeared on Lin Qinghuan's face as she coldly said, "A person's evil is ingrained in their bones. Lin Piaoxue was born a bad person."

Mr. and Mrs. Lin looked embarrassed and helpless.

Lin Piaoxue repeatedly defied warnings, and her father, no longer willing to indulge her, said helplessly, "If Piaoxue tries to harm you again, spare her life for our sake."

Looking at the injuries on Lin Qinghuan's face, Lin's mother's lips moved slightly, but she finally lowered her head in frustration.

Although she favored Piaoxue, she knew that appearance was very important to a woman. Piaoxue had ruined Qinghuan's face, and she couldn't bring herself to persuade Qinghuan to forgive Piaoxue; that would be too cruel to Qinghuan.

Lin Piaoxue knew that her parents were upset, but since she had done something wrong, she had to pay the price for her mistake.

"I'm worried that Lin Piaoxue might steal money from home to treat her facial injuries. You'd better hide the money well when you get back," Lin Qinghuan said frankly.

The money Lin Qinghuan risked her life to protect would not be allowed to be stolen and squandered by Lin Piaoxue.

"No way!" Lin's father found it hard to believe that Lin Piaoxue would steal money.

"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. If Lin Piaoxue really steals the money, don't come crying to me. Even if you cry, I won't have any money to give you," Lin Qinghuan said bluntly.

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Lin's mother looked at Lin's father anxiously and said, "Piaoxue really might steal the money. You should try to buy the shop in town as soon as possible, and get started on the brick factory business quickly. Otherwise, if Piaoxue really takes the money, the eldest son and the others will hate us to death."

Mr. Lin rubbed his head in exasperation. Why was Lin Piaoxue always so troublesome?
