Gong Tianhao listened to these replies and nodded.
Ning Junpeng looked at their expressions and was furious.
He shouted loudly, “Do you still have a conscience? How can you lie like this?”
When Mr. Jiang heard this, he frowned and said seriously, “These students are all telling the truth. When did they lie? Please don’t slander them.”
The Jiang couple was happy that the students were still siding with their daughter. Of course, most of the students were neutral. They kept quiet.
Ning Junpeng retorted, “These people are obviously lying through their teeth. Fine. We’ll see the punishment you’ll face later!”
Even he could tell that Jiang Shuyu’s parents were afraid of Xiao Lingye’s brother-in-law and sister. It was obvious that things would change soon. However, these people still wanted to court death.
One classmate immediately countered, “Ning Junpeng, what are you talking about? When did we lie? We were just telling the truth about the situation. We know you have a good relationship with Xiao Lingye, so you’re biased towards him. Do you expect all of us to be the same?”
When Ning Junpeng heard this, he did not get angry. Instead, he laughed and said, “I’m glad that you’re saying you’re telling the truth. I hope you won’t regret it later.”
A few students snorted.
Xiao Lingye only watched and did not say anything.
Madam Jiang took the initiative and spoke with some confidence, “Mr. Gong, did you hear that? These good students are good witnesses. That day, your brother-in-law took advantage of my daughter when she was drunk. Did I wrongly accuse him?”
Gong Tianhao did not say anything, but Xiao Lingyu looked at her brother and asked seriously, “Xiao Lingye, tell me the truth. Did you take advantage of a girl at the party that day?”
Xiao Lingye said without hesitation, “No! I don’t even like her.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded after hearing that. Then, she said to madam Jiang, “Madam Jiang, I know my brother. Since he said he didn’t do it, then he didn’t.”
Madam Jiang pointed at the students who testified with a livid face and said, “But these students saw it. Are you telling me they are working together to commit perjury?”
Xiao Lingyu said coldly, “I don’t know. But I know that I can always believe in my brother’s character.”
Madam Jiang said with conviction, “Of course, you’ll believe him. But the truth is otherwise.”
Xiao Letong snorted coldly and said, “Hmph, our Taoyuan Village has many beautiful sisters. My little uncle has many pursuers back home. Why would he come here to take advantage of an auntie? This is funny.”
Upon hearing Xiao Letong’s words, Madam Jiang and Jiang Shuyu’s expressions instantly turned ugly.
This child was too detestable. He wasn’t cute at all!
Madam Jiang sneered and said, “Little friend, you’re still young. What do you know? Men are creatures who think with their lower bodies. Just because he doesn’t like a woman, it doesn’t mean that he won’t take advantage of her.”
Xiao Letong said in puzzlement, “Grandma, you’re so strange. Shouldn’t parents be very protective of their daughter’s innocence? Normally, they would try their best to hide this fact. But you are going around flaunting that your daughter has lost her innocence to my little uncle, saying that he’s a hypocrite.” Then Xiao Letong turned around and stuck out his tongue at Xiao Lingye, saying very cutely, “Uncle, I’m sorry for calling you a hypocrite. I know that you’re not one.”
As soon as Xiao Letong finished speaking, the entire room became quiet again.
Many people looked at the Jiang couple with strange gazes.
At this moment, the students outside the window began to discuss.
“I think this child is right. Normally, the parents will hide something as shameless as this. This is especially true in our culture.”
“Even if Jiang Shuyu was taken advantage of by Xiao Lingye, the Jiang family is people of status. They should find Xiao Lingye and deal with him in private. Why would they broadcast this instead?”
Someone raised a different opinion.
They said, “Don’t forget those photos that have spread through campus. Even if the Jiang family wanted to hide this incident, it was impossible. Have you noticed the photos on the ground? It’s very likely that someone sent them to their house.”
“Yes, the incident was known by everyone. How could they hide it?”
Someone couldn’t help but laugh, “But have you considered where the photos come from? Plus, there were all those classmates who said that Jiang Shuyu had been ruined at the party. Normally, with Jiang’s Family’s power, they could have easily silenced those students. However, they didn’t do anything and, in fact, had allowed these students to broadcast all over school that Jiang Shuyu had lost her innocence to Xiao Lingye.
“Plus, the photos around campus only proved that Xiao Lingye and Jiang Shuyu were at the same event. Of course, there was one picture of Xiao Lingye holding Jiang Shuyu, but that doesn’t prove that they slept together.
“The Jiang Family didn’t stop the rumors when they could have. In fact, they seemed proud of it.
“Plus, didn’t they say that Jiang Shuyu was devastated by this? But look at her now. Does she look devastated to you? She was so energetic when she screamed at the kid earlier.”
As the students discussed and investigated in detail, it became clear that this was most likely a conspiracy. The conspiracy was like a bubble covering up the truth.
Xiao Letong’s words were like a needle puncturing that bubble.
Gong Tianhao also asked sharply, “Mr. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang, actually, I am also very curious. What is your goal that you’d go around telling everyone that your daughter’s reputation is ruined?”
The Jiang couple’s expression changed abruptly.
