As soon as Lin Yanqing finished speaking, Zhou Yuexue burst into tears:
"Yuexue is unjustly accused! Yuexue is not...nothing like that, it's...my cousin is holding Yuexue in his arms...Auntie, Yuexue is really unjustly accused..."
Zhou Yuexue's eyes were already swollen from crying, and now she was even out of breath from crying, as if she had been greatly wronged.
The old lady couldn't help but feel soft when she saw Zhou Yuexue's appearance. She wanted to speak for Zhou Yuexue, but thinking of what Zhou Yuexue had done in the past few months, the old lady lowered her eyes and said nothing.
Lin Yanqing looked at Lin Jinyun: "Are Yuexue's words true? Are you really forcibly bullying her?"
Lin Jinyun raised his head and secretly glanced at Lin Yanqing, who was speaking harshly. He couldn't help but trembled in his heart. He slightly turned his head and glanced at Zhou Yuexue who was crying beside him and couldn't control himself. He mustered up the courage to reply:
"It was my grandson... who hugged sister Xue'er, but it wasn't considered an insult. It was just because we had already agreed to each other. My grandson had already agreed with sister Xue'er that he would marry her after he got the honors. I couldn't help but... committed the crime. Liaohun…”
Lin Yanqing: "Yuexue, but that's what he said?"
After hearing what Lin Jinyun said, Zhou Yuexue couldn't help but curse Lin Jinyun in her heart for blocking her bright future.
If she accepts this, the old lady only needs to tell her family that her biological father and stepmother are eager to get married to the Lin family, and the marriage will be finalized. If Lin Jinyun is ranked first in high school, he can still survive, but if he fails, he will no longer have the possibility of becoming a master...
"Cousin... said this to Yuexue, but Yuexue was deeply taught by her aunt, and she knew that her parents had to make the decision on marriage. How could she make such a private life-long decision? Yuexue is just a brother and sister to her cousin. In order for my cousin to study hard, I said some words of encouragement to my cousin. Maybe...my cousin would have misunderstood..."
When Lin Jinyun heard this, he turned his head and looked at his sweetheart in surprise beside him, who was wiping his tears aggrievedly:
"Xue'er... you... how could you say that?"
Zhou Yuexue avoided Lin Jinyun's gaze, lowered her head to wipe her tears and sobbed quietly.
Lin Yanqing's scrutinizing gaze fell on Zhou Yuexue's head. He looked at Lin Jinyun's surprised and sad expression, and knew that what he said was true. He looked at Zhou Yuexue with an increasingly unhappy look:
"Since you said that you only love Jin Yun as a brother and sister, why would you tolerate him touching you again and again? If this happened in Tingyuge, I would not ask you more questions, but it was you who was seen twice You went to find Jin Yun, and you sent the maids outside the hospital. Since they are brother and sister, why do you want to be alone with Jin Yun?"
When Zhou Yuexue heard this, she hesitated and wanted to explain, but she was panicked and couldn't find the words. When she saw that she couldn't explain clearly, she started crying again, as if the Lin family was ganging up to bully her.
Lin Yanqing turned a deaf ear and looked at Lin Jinyun with heartbreaking disappointment in his eyes:
"I thought you could learn well after changing your temper, but I didn't know that you are as lustful and stupid as your father! You don't practice virtue! I will punish you with fifty strokes so that you can remember it well!"
When Lin Jinyun heard this, he didn't care that he was sad because of Zhou Yuexue's words, and looked at the old lady for help.
Old lady: "Yun'er doesn't have the strength to tie a chicken. Fifty boards is too much. He can't bear it."
Lin Yanqing: "I know you feel sorry for him. In the past, you would plead for mercy every time you were punished, but this evildoer has the same virtue as Siran! If he had been strictly disciplined since he was a child, how could he be like this? The Zhou family put their daughter in our home, if she was treated like this How are you going to explain to your brother that your evil deeds have been ruined?"
