Hearing his question, Jiang Zhiling came back to her senses, saw the two of them, and asked, "Why are you here, it's so late."

"Tingting said she was worried, so she wanted to come and have a look, how about it? What did the doctor say?" Zhan Yikai sat down and asked.

"It's okay, just take a rest."

"Oh, when will you be discharged from the hospital? By the way, brother-in-law?"

"he……"

"Why are you here?" Before Jiang Zhiling finished speaking, Huo Chengbai walked in.

"Why, she's your wife, isn't she my sister?" Zhan Yikai pouted.

Huo Chengbai didn't answer, and walked up to Jiang Zhiling: "Tell Zhuo Jingjing that he has nothing to do, and he didn't disappear to hide from her, but he has some personal matters to deal with, so tell her not to disturb him."

Zhan Yikai and Huo Tingting were a little confused by his words, but Jiang Zhiling could understand, she nodded, although she didn't know what was wrong, it's better to tell Zhuo Jingjing first, lest she worry.

She sent a text message to Zhuo Jingjing, and then said, "Let's leave the hospital."

Huo Chengbai disagreed: "You'd better be safe in the hospital."

Jiang Zhiling smiled: "No need, I know what's going on with my illness."

Hearing her words, his eyes glared for a moment, but he hasn't checked yet, how did she know?
Looking at his puzzled eyes, Jiang Zhiling shook her head: "Please call me Holmes."

Look at how proud she is, he has never seen anyone being murdered, but because he thought it through clearly, he is so proud.

"Okay, tell me, Holmes." Huo Chengbai said softly, Zhan Yikai looked very relieved, he had never seen Huo Chengbai be so gentle to anyone, but every time he was very gentle to his sister.

Jiang Zhiling looked very proud, and pretended to be mysterious and said, "Do you know who the person who hurt me is?"

"I don't know." Zhan Yikai cooperated.

She put on a mysterious look and whispered to them, "How about going home with me to solve the case?"

Seeing her very interested, Huo Chengbai narrowed his eyes slightly, happy to play with his little wife.

The group returned home with anticipation. Before entering the door, he whispered to Zhan Yikai: "Xiaofeng, go to the kitchen and watch. If you have anything to do, don't say anything and record it."

"Okay." Zhan Yikai agreed.

Several people entered the gate together, and as soon as they entered the hall, Jiang Zhiling saw the little maid winking at Huo Chengbai, and began to mutter: "Chengbai, I'm hungry, I want to eat something."

Huo Chengbai understood her hint, she meant to tell the maid, he looked at the maid cooperatively and said: "Go and make something for Madam and serve it."

The little maid nodded respectfully, and obediently went to the kitchen.

Looking at the back of the little maid, Jiang Zhiling silently gave Huo Chengbai a thumbs-up, then gestured to Zhan Yikai with her eyes, and Zhan Yikai followed immediately.

Huo Chengbai pushed Huo Tingting, and the three of them walked back to the room from the sloping stairs specially made for Huo Tingting.

Jiang Zhiling was lying on the bed, thinking about what was about to happen for a while, her eyes were full of anticipation, Huo Chengbai looked at her with great interest, and just stayed with her, wasn't it just acting?He is the actor.

After a while, she received a message from Zhan Yikai. It was a video. Sure enough, the little girl forgot to put something in the lotus seed soup. She smiled and blinked at Huo Chengbai, then closed her eyes, pretending to be uncomfortable .

Huo Chengbai understood that the little maid was coming, he sat on the head of the bed, stroked her hair gently, just in time to hear the sound of knocking on the door, he said in a deep voice, "Come in."

The little maid came in. In the past, Huo Chengbai was not there to deliver food to Jiang Zhiling, and his majestic appearance made her feel even more uneasy, but since nothing happened so many times, nothing will happen this time.

She breathed a little, and walked towards him, Huo Chengbai frowned: "Why is it lotus seed soup, Madam said that I don't like it anymore after drinking it every day, you can change it."

Hearing his words, the little maid immediately became nervous. Su Manxi told her that she had to drink for her every day. Seeing them leave, she thought she would not be able to drink today. She didn't expect them to come back, and she wanted to eat. Very happy.

But Su Manxi also said that it must be lotus seed soup, other things are useless, when she was a little bit embarrassed, she heard Jiang Zhiling say: "Okay, I just happened to be hungry, let's do it this time, don't do it next time gone."

Listening to her words, although she felt relieved this time, what should I do next time?
Tremblingly, she brought the tray in her hand to Jiang Zhiling, Huo Chengbai picked it up, and gently blew it to her mouth.

The little servant's heart went up, she must eat, otherwise Su Manxi would definitely take care of her.

Jiang Zhiling glanced at her and slowly opened her mouth, ate it in, watched her eat it in, the little servant finally let go, she was about to leave, but Jiang Zhiling stopped her suddenly: "Wait a minute."

She stood down immediately.

"You can just take it down after I finish eating." Hearing what she said, she respectfully stood aside holding the tray, with her head slightly lowered, secretly looking at Jiang Zhiling.

There was nothing unusual about her, she was still eating, and suddenly she vomited crazily, "vomit~"

The little servant's heart was terrified, what kind of medicine did Su Manxi ask her to take?Will it kill someone?She took two steps forward in a panic, but didn't say anything.

Jiang Zhiling saw her worry, and continued to pretend to vomit, while Huo Chengbai had already put down the bowl and patted her on the back with concern: "How is it? Are you feeling better?"

Seeing her vomit continuously, the little servant felt sad and anxious. Did the medicine work? She didn't want to, she didn't want to harm her, but she couldn't do it?She was at a loss and stomped her feet involuntarily.

Seeing that she still didn't mean to say it, Jiang Zhiling secretly gave Huo Chengbai a look, and suddenly passed out.

Huo Chengbai immediately shouted: "Jiang Zhiling!" Pretending to be in a panic, he turned around and scolded the little maid angrily: "What's going on?"

His cold and stern words made the little maid tremble, she was really frightened by him, and said falteringly: "I, I don't know either?"

"You dare to quibble, Zhiling is like this because she ate something you made." Huo Chengbai still looked serious.

He was right, but the little maid didn't dare to admit that she had done a good job at Huo's family, if Su Manxi hadn't found her, she could have worked here safely for the rest of her life.

"I, I don't know." She was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground.

Huo Chengbai glanced at Jiang Zhiling secretly, saw Jiang Zhiling blinking at him, and whispered, "Say I'm dead."

He was really willing to let go, since he already knew it was her, why did he do this?However, he cooperatively stretched out his hand to test Jiang Zhiling's nose, then pretended to be greatly frightened, and slumped on the chair.

Seeing his actions and reactions, the little servant became even more flustered. Is Jiang Zhiling dead?what to do?dead?She didn't want to.

She knelt on the ground, her hands trembling constantly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." She kept saying.

Suddenly being pulled up, Huo Chengbai looked at her with eyes full of resentment, the anger in his eyes made her shudder.

"Say, is that you?"

She was so frightened that she was paralyzed and trembling, she was almost able to stand by Huo Chengbai pulling her collar.

After not hearing her answer for a long time, Jiang Zhiling's heart went completely cold. She originally wanted to give her a chance to realize the consequences of what she did.

Usually, she always looks cautious, and thinks she is not that kind of cruel person, but she never thought that she would not admit it when things got to this point.

"I, not me." The little maid still insisted.

Jiang Zhiling couldn't stand it, so she sat up.

Seeing her sitting up, the little maid's eyes suddenly opened like a cow, the eyeballs almost fell out of her eyes, Cheng Bai noticed her reaction, he turned his head and saw that Jiang Zhiling had already sat up.

Knowing that Jiang Zhiling had given up on her, he loosened her collar with great disdain, and the little maid fell to the ground as soon as he let go.

Jiang Zhiling's long black hair was casually scattered in front of her face because she just sat up, her expression was disappointed and her eyes were empty.

The little maid saw that her heart was almost clenched into a ball, as if someone was pinching her throat, making her suffocate.

Jiang Zhiling swore that she had absolutely no intention of scaring her, but her appearance was indeed quite scary, Huo Chengbai sat down like a king, he was a perfect cooperator, he gave all the dominance to Jiang Zhiling.

Jiang Zhiling looked at the little maid who was slumped on the ground, she sighed, smoothed her hair with her hands, and sat cross-legged on the bed casually.

"Do you know what the consequences will be if you become a minion for a tiger?"

The little maid sat timidly on the ground, her eyes glazed over, without any reaction.

Jiang Zhiling felt distressed looking at it, she had always been well-behaved in her eyes, otherwise she would not have given herself the chance to realize her mistakes.

She said earnestly: "I'll give you one last chance, confess, Su Manxi already told me."

Hearing Su Manxi's name, she immediately raised her eyes in shock, with disbelief and horror in her eyes.

Su Manxi must have been discovered by Jiang Zhiling and said that she did it. Based on past experience, what can she do, she can only admit: "Yes, it was me."

Jiang Zhiling was taken aback, how could she say that she did it?Su Manxi has already admitted that she did it?But she actually said it was her, which was beyond her expectation.

"Why are you taking the blame for her?"

Hearing her words, the little maid raised her eyes immediately: "What did you say?" Did she hear correctly?Jiang Zhiling said that she took the blame for her, so she already knew that Su Manxi did it.

"Were you threatened by her?" Jiang Zhiling guessed.

"No. She immediately denied it."

Although she reacted quickly enough, it seemed to indicate that she was covering up something.

"Are you trying to take the blame for her?"
