Chapter 65: Gossip Is Everywhere

Shen Xiaoxiao liked red, because red symbolized death. The ultimate symbol, the scarlet red, the ultimate charm.

In the minus-ten-degree winter in China, no matter how beautiful a person was, they would definitely be covered in clothes before they dared to walk outdoors.

As an audit student, Shen Xiaoxiao did not choose a good time. It was already January, and the winter vacation was about to begin. She only attended two days of classes, and the school’s New Year’s Ball was about to be held. After the ball was held, the winter vacation would begin, if she wanted to attend classes again, she would have to wait until February 15th of next year to start school.

The winter and summer vacation at Jingdu University was considered the shortest in all of China. As the number one university in China, more time was spent not playing, but studying and practicing.

Shen Xiaoxiao held the textbook in her hand, as well as the flyer for the New Year’s party that her first-year-student sister was braving the cold wind as she passed by the office building. She glanced at it thoughtfully.

Should she go? Of course, she had to go. If she didn’t go, how could she watch the show? If she didn’t go, how could she see if the land mines that she had personally planted in America would explode at this time?

…

Third Uncle had already completed the formalities at the sanatorium near his apartment. Grandma Lin moved directly into the sanatorium and waited for half a year before moving back to Third Uncle’s apartment after her body recovered.

Moreover, this sanatorium was very close to Shen Xiaoxiao’s neighborhood. It was only a 10-minute walk, and the air was fresh and expensive.

Granny Lin was very understanding. She never liked to trouble her granddaughter. Shen Xiaoxiao told her that she would visit her every day, so Granny Lin also knew that if she wanted to spend a long time with her granddaughter, she had to be well.

She did not object to her granddaughter’s arrangement. Instead, she very much agreed with it.

After settling down on Grandma Lin’s side, Shen Xiaoxiao began to plan her matters in peace. The New Year’s Ball was important, but so were other things.

Shen Xiaoxiao did not know what a college student’s ball was like. She had never been to college. The young college students she had seen these days had already made her envious for a long time. To be honest, to be able to attend such a ball… She was quite willing.

This was different from those so-called upper-class parties. After all, most of them were students. Not every one of them could dress up beautifully.

At this moment, Shen Xiaoxiao was wearing a simple jeans and down jacket. The weather was too cold. She was wearing a very ordinary dress underneath. It was quite common at this party.

However, there were also beautiful figures who were not afraid of the cold.

For example, Liu Yufei, and for example, Pei Meimei.

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the two people who were slowly walking into the venue and raised her eyebrows with a smile. She had really underestimated the relationship between the two of them. Pei Meimei was actually so close to Liu Yufei.

It shouldn’t be. Pei Meimei was such a narrow-minded and vengeful woman. How could she still be so close to Liu Yufei?

Eh, it wasn’t completely useless. From the way she was dressed, one could tell that Pei Meimei’s skin was dark and she couldn’t wear anything too flashy. Tonight, she had chosen a good purple dress. It looked quite beautiful.

The key was that Liu Yufei was also wearing a purple dress. However, her temperament was that of a gentle and demure flower. She couldn’t afford to wear such an authentic purple dress. Instead, she seemed to be a level lower than Pei Meimei.

Moreover, Liu Yufei’s expression was not good. She had always been good at pretending, but at this moment, she could not even bring out her expression. It could be seen that she was extremely unhappy.

On the other hand, Pei Li was still the focus of the entire party tonight. He was holding hands with a beauty on both sides of him. His black suit was neat and elegant, and he was about 180 centimeters tall. However, the appearance of a noble gentleman attracted the attention of everyone present.

As expected, he was still the same as in his previous life. He was a genuine peacock and extremely hypocritical.

“Senior Pei is so handsome. It would be great if I could stand beside him. Do you think he would like me? I really want to dance with him,” Girl A said/

“Forget it. Didn’t you see the two people beside him? One of them is his precious little sister, while the other is his childhood sweetheart. Although he didn’t name them, everyone in the school knows that Senior Pei and our school belle, Liu Yufei, are a couple. Even a fool can see that. You should just stop worrying,” Girl B said.

“I don’t think so. So what if they were childhood sweethearts? Liu Yufei and Pei Meimei are not on good terms. If she marries into the Pei family, it will be difficult for her sister-in-law to not please them,” said Girl A.

“Not on good terms? No way! Who doesn’t know that they are on good terms? They are best friends. Where did you hear such gossip?” said Girl B.

“Hehe, you don’t know, right? Let me tell you. I saw it with my own eyes today. The two of them were arguing about the dress. Did you see that? It was the dress that the two of them were wearing today.

Pei Meimei wanted to wear purple and thought that she looked good in purple. However, Liu Yufei said that Pei Meimei’s dark skin didn’t look good and that it was best to wear black.

Pei Meimei didn’t know what she did either. After taking a selfie on her phone, she sent it out. She didn’t expect that everyone would say that she looked good. This time, she really stirred up the big miss’ hornet’s nest. You don’t know how ugly her scolding was. What shameless words from abroad… I was dumbfounded when I heard that…”

Shen Xiaoxiao, who was standing at the side, also heard it clearly. Indeed, where there were girls, there would be gossip. Moreover, it would be strange if the three of them did not attract the attention of others by appearing in such a manner.

As expected, there was suspicion. That was great. Now, she had to add fuel to the fire. Just these small fights were too child’s play. It would be more exciting if they were to face each other with real weapons, especially the scenes of these two women. She wanted to watch them very much.

She looked at the flashy trio and then at Ouyang Yu, who had just entered the venue. He was dressed normally. If Shen Xiaoxiao did not know Ouyang Yu, many people would not have thought that he was a member of the Ouyang family.

He maintained a low profile of the Ouyang family, but over the years, the Ouyang family had slowly become high profile.

His white suit looked clean. Although he was not as handsome as Pei Li, he was tall, fair-skinned, and wore a pair of glasses. He looked gentle and refined, like a white-faced little boy.

However, the more innocent and harmless a person looked, the dirtier and filthier his private business was.

This kind of student dance party would be very formal. If you wanted to dance, you could go and dance. If you didn’t want to dance, you could sit and watch others dance. You could also gather in groups of three or five to play games or gossip.

Shen Xiaoxiao slowly walked toward the place where there were the most girls.

There was a hint of childishness on her face. She deliberately put on makeup to make her look very plain. It was the kind of thing that would make it difficult for others to discover her if she didn’t join the crowd.

Her arrival didn’t arouse the curiosity of everyone. They just exchanged a few simple greetings. After asking each other about their respective departments and classes, they started chatting.

“Hey, have you guys heard about the matter between Pei Meimei and Liu Yufei?”

“What’s the matter? Why are they so mysterious?”

“I heard that the two of them look very good on the surface, but not only did they not get along in private, they almost started fighting.”

The power of gossip was too strong. It did not take more than five minutes. They did not expect that someone would start spreading their gossip. It was their fault for being the most famous public figures in the school every day.

Shen Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and joined the conversation group as if nothing had happened:

“I think so. I heard it has something to do with that Young Master of the Ouyang family?”
