Chapter 118 Who is arranging the plot between me and my mentor?
"That's disgusting! Didn't you see that picture on the forum? She actually knelt down and did that to Professor Chen!"
The fingers holding the milk bottle suddenly tightened, and the cold plastic bottle was almost deformed by her.
That kind of thing?
What is that kind of thing?
What happened between her and Professor Chen?
Professor Chen is her doctoral supervisor and mentor.
There is nothing innocent between them, and there is nothing else besides academics.
"I was wondering what was wrong with Professor Chen. He kept the vacant position in his core team for several years and no one wanted it. After all this time, it turns out that he saved it for his mistress!" The voice was filled with malicious malice of sudden enlightenment.
Xu Yueqing's face turned pale.
"That woman is such a slut," the gossip continued, like a poisoned knife stabbing her heart again and again. "I heard that Professor Chen and his wife are about to get divorced because of her. Now, she's straight into Professor Chen's house, staying with him every day."
"If I were Mrs. Chen, I would have rushed over and torn this woman's face into pieces! How shameless!" Xu Yueqing's lips tightened.
She knew that she was recommended by Professor Chen after all, and she would definitely be the center of the storm.
I was also prepared to be talked about.
But she didn't expect that these discussions would be so absurd and so dirty.
The relationship between teachers and students is twisted into a sexual relationship.
Academic recommendations are slandered as personal transactions.
Xu Yueqing never cared about other people's opinions. Back then, at the Xu family and at school, she had heard even more unpleasant words than this.
But this time, it's different.
This dirty water was not only thrown on her, but also on her respected mentor.
The words had hit her in the face, and she couldn't pretend not to hear them.
She let go of the milk bottle, leaving a deep fingerprint mark on the bottle.
Then he turned around and walked out from behind the shelf.
The noisy discussions stopped abruptly the moment she appeared.
The air seemed to freeze in an instant.
The expressions on the faces of the researchers who were gathered together were varied. Their excitement instantly turned into embarrassment. They avoided her gaze and no one dared to look at her.
There was no expression on Xu Yueqing's face. He walked step by step to the front of those people, stopped, and calmly swept his eyes over their flushed faces.
She spoke, her voice not loud, breaking the dead silence.
"That shameless bitch you're talking about," she paused and asked clearly, word by word.
"Are you talking about me?"
The faces of those people, like a color palette, instantly changed from the crimson of gloating to the pale of being caught on the spot, and finally revealed a hint of purple of anger and shame.
The one in the lead had a wandering look in his eyes and had begun to quietly move backwards.
Just as they turned around and tried to slip away, Xu Yueqing suddenly reached out and grabbed the sleeve of the T-shirt of the man closest to her. She squeezed the fabric so tightly that clear wrinkles appeared.
Xu Yueqing suddenly had a smile on her face.
The smile was very shallow, not reaching the eyes, but making those already cold eyes look even more unsettling.
"I thought I heard you talking about me just now," she said, her voice as calm as a deep pool of water, unable to discern emotion. "If you have any questions, you can ask me directly. There's no need to use your imagination to make up stories about me and my teacher behind my back."
The man who was caught was a researcher in his late twenties, considered an old man in the institute.
