Chapter 249: Chapter 249 Scandal

The next day, news of Yun Shifei getting out of a luxury car sparked a wave of small-scale discussions among the students.

Ever since the semester started, Yun Shifei had gained a bit of popularity because of her good looks.

"I saw the belle of the Computer Science department, that Yun Shifei person, getting out of someone else’s car yesterday."

"Isn’t her family from the South City? Who was the person driving her back to school?"

"Who knows? Her family probably isn’t that wealthy. Look at how frugal she usually dresses, and she often eats at the cafeteria."

In the cafeteria, Yun Shifei had just finished serving herself food when she overheard a group of girls nearby whispering about her.

None of them outright accused Yun Shifei of anything, but their words clearly implied she had found herself a financial backer.

It wasn’t unheard of—some female students did pursue a life of luxury by taking such shortcuts.

"Wow, look at what you’re saying! If you’re bold, why not say it right to our faces?"

Yu Liantao couldn’t hold back. Her personality was such that she couldn’t tolerate even a speck of nonsense, and naturally, she wasn’t about to let others spread baseless rumors about her roommate.

Though Yun Shifei was discreet and dressed simply, her friends all knew her family was actually quite wealthy.

She didn’t use makeup, but her skincare products and clothing brands were all high-end.

And from her demeanor and behavior, there was no way she seemed like someone struggling financially.

Besides, her personality wasn’t the sort to cozy up to some rich patron.

The girls fell silent when they saw Yu Liantao step forward, quickly grabbing their friends and leaving.

"Shi Fei, don’t worry, we’re all on your side. If they spread rumors about you again, I’ll curse them out!" Tang Xiao and Fu Qingqing both chimed in, equally indignant.
