Chapter 751: Chapter 751 Are you flattering yourself, cousin?

Yang Xiaoxi’s words ignited the emotions of everyone, particularly the less privileged out-of-town students, who now looked at Cheng Feiyang with suspicion.

Right!

Wasn’t Cheng Feiyang’s implication that he looked down on poor students from other regions?

Shen Mianmian is a good student and has a big boss sponsoring her charity, which isn’t anything unusual. Cheng Feiyang was clearly targeting Shen Mianmian on purpose! He accused her of being a mistress without even understanding the truth.

"Don’t talk nonsense," Cheng Feiyang was fuming, "Where did this woman come from with such a slick mouth?" He said, "Why did He Nan sponsor only her and nobody else? There must be other students in Licheng who are also good at their studies, right?"

"Who told you that He Nan only sponsored me?" Shen Mianmian, who had been silent for quite a while, smiled faintly, "Brother He has sponsored dozens of students before. Just because you don’t know about it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen."

Cheng Feiyang: "..."

He really didn’t know that.

Yang Xiaoxi took the opportunity to say, "Cheng Feiyang, stop making trouble out of nothing. Helping your cousin snatch a man is not done this way. Perhaps she is just infatuated and He Nan doesn’t fancy her at all, right?"

"..." Cheng Feiyang was speechless because Yang Xiaoxi was right about one thing—He Nan truly didn’t like his cousin.

Otherwise, the two would have married long ago.

Knowing he was in the wrong, Cheng Feiyang couldn’t stay any longer and stormed out of the classroom with a huff.

Behind him, Yang Xiaoxi called out, "Don’t listen to his nonsense. He’s just spreading rumors."

Everyone was just watching the excitement and didn’t dare to say much. Cheng Feiyang was a local with a relatively wealthy family. Everyone was here to study and didn’t want to offend him as long as it didn’t affect them personally.

As the person involved, Shen Mianmian wasn’t affected by this incident. The only surprise was that now even Cheng Xining’s cousin had come to know of her existence.

Given the pace at which things were progressing, she might have entered Fu Hua’s radar as well—she just didn’t know what he thought of her relationship with Big Brother He.

"Mianmian, you’re not upset because I blabbed about you being a small business owner in Licheng, are you?" Yang Xiaoxi looked at Shen Mianmian, who wasn’t speaking, and explained worriedly, "I only spoke out earlier because I saw he misunderstood you, and I was a bit anxious."

In others’ eyes, Shen Mianmian might be climbing the social ladder to reach He Nan, but Yang Xiaoxi saw it differently. Although Mianmian wasn’t as rich as He Nan, she didn’t need to fawn over anyone—Mianmian was a small wealthy lady herself.

Besides, Mianmian’s academic excellence promised a bright future.

"No," Shen Mianmian shook her head, "I didn’t steal or rob for my business, so it’s fine if others know about it. You did well by speaking up; if I had said it myself, people might think I was showing off my wealth."

Yang Xiaoxi sighed with relief, "I’m glad you’re not upset. Actually, we should’ve disclosed that you’re a small business owner earlier to prevent certain people from gossiping behind your back. I was worried that it would upset you, so I didn’t tell you, but in fact, many people have been talking about you. They question how a student could afford fancy clothes, how you maintain such fair skin, and the fact that you live off-campus. I’ve secretly shut those people down so many times."

The money Mianmian had, she earned through her own abilities. At nineteen, Mianmian was young and beautiful—why shouldn’t she dress up now instead of saving her money for what?

Those people were just sour because they couldn’t have what she has.
