Chapter 1887: A Group of Jealous People

Even after what had happened to Yun Yuanfeng, Yun Xi still returned to school. She spent most of her time with her research mates and instructors in the laboratory.

She had once asked her birth father if he could accept it if she were to study forensic science.

Xiao Jinglin didn’t even consider it and replied, “You can do whatever you like. Just make sure that you have chosen a route you are actually interested in.”

That was the father’s simplest wish for his daughter, to live in a world without a battle of interests.

However, unlike before, the atmosphere in the laboratory was different. The moment some students saw Yun Xi walking in, they couldn’t hide how they looked at her even if they tried.

Yun Xi did not care how other people would judge her after the news got out. If she could not get rid of Yun Yuanfeng, then it would’ve been a total waste for her to return to Jingdu.

To make it even easier for her was the fact that Yun Yuanfeng wasn’t even her birth father. So there was no reason for her to get emotional about his fall, nor did she need to feel embarrassed.

The moment the professor left, chatter filled the quiet laboratory right away as they gossiped about Yun Xi.

“Who would’ve thought we would be in the same class as a murderer’s daughter?”

“Hey! You’re wrong. We are in the same class as the daughter of a murderer and a corrupted official! Heck! How can she still have the face to show up here?”

“That’s why she always wears expensive shirts! With all the bribes her father had received, those should be cheap for her.”

“Will she even be able to live a normal life after this? Won’t she resort to stealing to maintain this lifestyle? If it were me, I would’ve dropped out right away.”

Yun Xi checked the result that had just come back while completely ignoring the ridicule targeted at her. She didn’t care about them, nor did she feel there was a need to argue back.

Before the professor left, he had given her an experiment to complete. “Ignore what other people have to say about you. You just have to focus on the experiment,” he said.

Despite all the rumors and the news surrounding the Yun family, the professor did not dislike nor avoid her. On the contrary, he even tried to comfort her instead, which brought warmth to her heart.

However, that caused other students to get jealous of her as the professor could recommend a student to study at a foreign university for a month. No matter how much they could learn in that month, they would be well-respected by other students when they returned from the exchange program.

Yun Xi never thought of getting that spot, but now that her classmates were acting as if she wanted it, she would feel bad if she didn’t aim for it.

“Well, we can never win against her. Who knows? Maybe she even did some dirty trades when no one was looking.”

“You’re ri—”

Before the second student could finish her sentence, someone suddenly knocked her over. She tripped and fell onto the table, knocking all the equipment over.

“What the hell? Are you blind?” Yao Xiaohui, the student who was knocked over, got up. When she turned around and saw that it was Zhao Yumo who had pushed her, she got even angrier. “You b*tch! Are you going to pay for the equipment if they are broken?”

“Aren’t you the blind one here? Didn’t your mom teach you that a good dog should not block its owner’s path?” Zhao Yumo scoffed before walking toward Yun Xi.

Zhao Yumo then turned to scan everyone in the laboratory with her cold glare and laughed, “Since when did our professor get so many students who are only jealous of what other people have? Do you guys have some mental sickness or something? You better get that treated, or people might think you are a maniac.”

“Zhao Yumo! How dare you humiliate us! This has nothing to do with you!”

“Well, unfortunately for you, I just love to meddle in other people’s business. Man, it feels good to trample over people who love to tarnish another person’s reputation. Admit it. That’s all you can do since you can never be as good as them. Wait, I remember that the drama club is recruiting for the role of a Karen. You should apply for it!”
