Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 676

Chapter 676: Chapter 676: Unable to Defend Myself

"So what do you think about this matter? You and Lin Jiadong are classmates and roommates. Do you think Lin Jiadong would violate school regulations and engage in early romance with Tian Qiaofeng?"

Li Youmin pressed his lips together, remaining silent for a long time.

Tian Qiaofeng’s mother became anxious, "Speak up, in front of the principal and teachers, tell the truth. Even if it tarnishes our daughter’s reputation, we must seek justice."

Tian Qiaofeng silently shed tears beside her.

After his initial shock, Lin Jiadong, with a cold face, stared at him, wondering what he was thinking.

After a brief silence, as if making a decision, Li Youmin glanced at Lin Jiadong before speaking.

"Jiadong and I are roommates and the best of friends. Actually, I knew about this beforehand, and I even advised him at the time, but he didn’t listen to me."

Lin Jiadong frowned, "When did you ever advise me?"

Li Youmin was helpless, "Jiadong, although we are good buddies, Tian Qiaofeng is a classmate. What you’re doing is unfair, and I can’t just watch you keep going down the wrong path. This is obviously your fault. Just apologize to the teachers. Your academic performance is excellent; don’t let this ruin your future."

Lin Jiadong, angry yet amused, said, "I never realized your ability to distort facts was this great."

Mr. Zhang also frowned, "Let’s talk about the evidence. Li Youmin, Tian Xiaofeng just said he has evidence and you are their witness. Can you explain how you know about their relationship? Did you see or hear it, or is there another reason?"

"Since Lin Jiadong is so stubborn, I have no choice but to tell the truth."

He glanced at Lin Jiadong and continued, "I’m not making this up. I once personally saw Lin Jiadong and Zhang Qiaofeng meeting in the small woods behind the school, and it was then that I reminded Lin Jiadong of the school’s regulations, hoping he’d come to his senses. But he didn’t listen, and even started resenting me. I didn’t bring it up again afterwards, not expecting that the truth would come out like this. I think I’m not the only one at school who has seen them meet."

Lin Jiadong clenched his fists, his eyes glaring angrily at Li Youmin. Just as he was about to argue, a small hand gently clasped his fist, and upon looking up, he met his second sister’s gentle gaze.

She shook her head gently and soothingly patted the back of his hand.

Then she looked up at Li Youmin, "You’re Li Youmin, right? I remember seeing you before. I think you also participated in last year’s city math competition training. At that time, you and my brother were both excellent students selected by Ancheng First High School."

Li Youmin, not understanding why Lin Chuxia mentioned this, nodded in agreement.

"I remember my brother specially introduced you, saying that you two got along well, and just now you said as you came in that you’re the best buddies in the same class and dorm as my brother..."

Lin Jiadong turned his head to his second sister, wanting to say that he and Li Youmin were not the best of friends.

Their relationship used to be good, but after going to the capital for the national math competition last year, things became subtle between them.

He was straightforward, but not foolish. When the teacher’s watch was lost, even classmates from other schools knew to help him find the truth, and Li You clearly knew the new watch his second sister bought for him, yet still directed the suspicion towards him.

At that time, he couldn’t defend himself.

He held back from explaining upon seeing his second sister’s eyes, swallowing back his words.

Li Youmin nodded, "My relationship with Jiadong is indeed good; all our classmates can attest to it."

Lin Chuxia understood, "Since this issue concerns Lin Jiadong’s future, as his best friend, do you not consider this at all? Do you know that standing as a witness blocks Lin Jiadong’s future?"
