Chapter 386 - 386: She Has No Confidence
However, upon hearing this, Su Yingxue didn’t feel relieved. Instead, her mood grew heavier.
“If my medical skills aren’t sufficient, how could I allow you to pay the price for me?”
Pretending to be oblivious, Su Yingxue continued practicing with her mother’s surgical tools and continued to practice with the rabbit. The rabbit in her hand did not die. It survived, but she still did not dare conduct surgery on Su Dingheng.
A day spent practicing followed by a day of hesitation.
The next day, Liang Jin arrived with a grim-faced group and took her to the Capital Prefecture court.
In the courtroom, Doctor Huang from the True Medicine Center and several court physicians all testified that the item poisoning Su Dingheng was a batch of furniture from his room.
However, Liu Shulan arrived with servants, attesting that the furniture was personally purchased by Su Yingxue as a gift for Su Dingheng.
She even detailed some arguments she had with Su Dingheng in the house.
With this evidence, Liang Jin had to conclude it was an attempted murder case.
Before the public, Liang Jin sentenced Su Yingxue to the Capital Prefecture prison.
As Su Yingxue was being taken away, Liu Shulan concealed a triumphant smile at the corner of her mouth.
Su Yingxue’s mother couldn’t defeat her, and neither could Su Yingxue!
In Capital Prefecture prison, Su Yingxue sat upright in the cell. She was still holding the surgical tools tightly in her hand until she heard Liang Jin’s approaching footsteps.
She put away the surgical tools.
Liang Jin came in and asked her, “Miss Su, are you dissatisfied with my judgment?”
Su Yingxue shook her head. “Lord Liang is meticulous, and the judgment is based on evidence, with no deviations.”
He continued, “However, I feel that Miss Su doesn’t seem like someone who would harm her biological father.”
Liang Jin’s expression was grave.
Su Yingxue was taken aback. “Lord Liang is known for impartial judgments. Why have personal feelings?”
“Because certain cases appear too smooth, the evidence too perfect. That’s where they might have flaws.” Liang Jin had strategic foresight.
Su Yingxue smiled slightly. Liang Jin indeed had his methods for solving cases. Some of the seemingly perfect arrangements were strange. If they continued to investigate, they might be full of loopholes.
Liang Jin was also waiting for this loophole.
“Before Marquis Su has fully recovered, I have the right to not sentence you severely. However, Doctor Huang and several court physicians have said that the poison in Marquis Su is rare and very troublesome. If I let you treat him as a doctor, are you confident that you can cure him?” Liang Jin asked.
Su Yingxue shook her head.” No.”
She lowered her eyes and her expression was dark. Liang Jin had never seen her so unconfident when it came to medical skills.
Compared to the genius doctor who was in high spirits in the past.
Today, Su Yingxue seemed to have changed into a different person.
Liang Jin didn’t ask further.
Su Yingxue only had a few peaceful days in prison.
Chu Yihan came to the cell and saw her sitting cross-legged on the stone bed. His expression was cold. He walked up to her and asked in a low voice, “How many days do you plan to stay here?”
Su Yingxue slowly opened her eyes, pondering. “No time like the present. Let’s leave today.”
“I will escort you.”
Chu Yihan extended his hand to her. The moment Su Yingxue placed her hand in his palm, a sense of reassurance enveloped her.
Exiting the cell, Chu Yihan seemed attuned to her, guiding her back to the Marquis’s Manor.
Before Su Yingxue got out of the rickshaw, Chu Yihan inquired, “Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to cure your father?”
Su Yingxue’s smile carried a trace of bitterness. “Even if I claim not to be afraid, I can’t deceive Your Highness.”
Chu Yihan enclosed her small hand in his palm. The warmth emanating from his grasp made Su Yingxue’s eyes inadvertently soften..
