Chapter 858: Protection
In this era, as long as one was young, one would be familiar with the term Photoshop. For a skilled person, it was not a problem to tamper with a picture.
The bedroom picture was not posted on campus with the rest, so no one noticed the problem. But now that they saw the bedroom pictures and Xiao Lingye’s figure, the problem was clear at a glance.
Mr. Jiang saw Xiao Lingye’s perfect figure and compared it with the man’s figure in the photos. How could he not understand it? His face immediately turned black and looked exceptionally ugly.
As a woman, the moment Mrs. Jiang saw Xiao Lingye’s figure, her eyes could not help but light up. ‘He has a very beautiful figure. He must have a powerful waist… No, wait.’
Madam Jiang stared at Xiao Lingye’s figure for a while and compared it with the man’s figure in the photo. This difference was immediately revealed. She couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Hmm? Why is his figure so different in the picture?” Then, she immediately shut her mouth.
Xiao Letong’s voice sounded again. He said, “Grandma, you’re wrong. That’s because the person in the picture is not my little uncle. So, of course, the bodies are different.”
Madam Jiang’s face stiffened, then she argued, “No way. He is the person in the picture. That’s his face in the picture!” She couldn’t admit that Xiao Lingye wasn’t the man in the picture because if they did, that meant that their daughter had lied to them to frame Xiao Lingye. If Xiao Lingye weren’t Gong Tianhao’s brother-in-law, they could force him to admit that he was the person in the picture.
But they couldn’t do that now. Gong Tianhao was right there in the room with them. If he knew that their daughter used these photos to frame Xiao Lingye, he would definitely not let her off.
At this moment, Madam Jiang could only pretend to be dumb.
Xiao Letong said seriously, “Grandma, we already told you the picture had been photoshopped. But you’re old, so it’s understandable.”
...Madam Jiang, “…” Was she just called old? She was only in her forties. Because she took good care of herself, she looked like she was in her thirties. Anyone who saw her would praise her. But now, she was being called old by a Brat?
Madam Jiang was furious. She wanted to get angry, but she couldn’t. She could only endure it.
She kept muttering to herself. ‘I can’t argue with a brat. Furthermore, he is Gong Tianhao’s son.’ After she calmed down, Madam Jiang said, “Little Friend, you called me grandma. Do I look very old? You should call me Auntie.”
Xiao Letong raised his head and looked at her. He said innocently, “But grandma, you look even older than my grandmother.”
Madam Jiang almost fainted from anger.
Madam Jiang was so angry that her face turned green and purple. If this were any other child, she would have slapped him. But this was Gong Tianhao’s son. She couldn’t afford to offend him.
Madam Jiang took a deep breath and could only fake a laugh. “Oh, is that so?”
The students outside the window were completely speechless when they saw this scene. ‘Is there something wrong with Madam Jiang’s mind? Why would she be hung up on this? Shouldn’t she focus on finding out the real identity of the man in the pictures?’
Gong Tianhao looked at the couple’s livid expressions. The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile as he said, “It seems that you have found the problem. Now I have a few questions of my own. First, where did the photos come from? Second, did you confirm with your daughter the photos’ authenticity after you got these photos?”
The Jiang couple looked at the photos, and their lips trembled a few times.
Xiao Letong looked around the room. He asked with some doubt, “Where is the Auntie in the picture? Since she is the victim, shouldn’t she be there? That way, we’ll be able to examine the problem clearly, right?”
“Wow, this child is so smart!” The students outside the window couldn’t help but exclaim when they heard Xiao Letong.
“How old is this child? How does he know so much?”
“I think it’s probably inherited genes. Look at how smart Xiao Lingye is. I didn’t expect that his nephew is also so smart.”
“This child can practically be a detective. He can discover all the problems with just a glance.”
The people outside praised the child.
Gong Tianhao and his son’s questions directly made the Jiang couple embarrassed.
However, before they could answer, Gong Tianhao continued, “Just as my son said, since this is a confrontation, naturally both parties need to be present. Actually, wait, we might need the presence of more than two parties. Naturally, we have to invite the witnesses too.
“I’ve already sent people to the Jiang Family to invite your daughter. As for the two who asked for holiday leave, I’ve invited them back to school as well. All the other students who were at the social events were asked to come to the principal’s office too. I’m sure the truth will be revealed soon. Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, please wait a moment.”
After hearing about Xiao Lingye’s matter, Gong Tianhao immediately sent people to investigate the situation. It had to be said that Gong Tianhao’s subordinates were all capable. In just a short ten minutes, the entire situation was investigated.
Gong Tianhao wanted to clear his brother-in-law’s name. So no one was going to be hiding at home.
Previously, he spared her because this was his brother-in-law’s own matter. He didn’t expect that Jiang Shuyu could create more problems. Gong Tianhao believed that Xiao Lingye could handle this on his own.
However, the Jiang Family was now trying to bully the Gong Family. Gong Tianhao couldn’t stand it anymore.
The people outside the window were extremely shocked when they heard Gong Tianhao.
“Damn, who is Xiao Lingye’s brother-in-law? He isn’t afraid of Jiang Shuyu’s parents at all. He even has the ability to invite Jiang Shuyu to school.”
“Although I don’t know who Xiao Lingye’s brother-in-law is, from the looks of it, he seems to be more powerful than the Jiang family.”
“I think so too. Also, did you see that Jiang Shuyu’s parents seem to be in awe of Xiao Lingye’s brother-in-law?”
“Eh, why do I feel that Xiao Lingye’s brother-in-law looks so familiar?”
“Now that you mention it, I also feel that this person looks very familiar.”
