Two Chinese sisters have released an 86-page exposé accusing their father, a former professor at Wuhan University, of being involved in a decade-long affair with his former doctoral student, who is now also a professor at the same institution. The sisters allege that their father, Fu Lei, and Zeng Mengqi have misappropriated university research funds for personal use and have accused Zeng of academic misconduct, such as depriving other students of first authorship on publications or using Fu as a ghostwriter for her articles.
Fu left the family two years ago, leading to his mother's financial hardships. Despite Zeng marrying a university colleague in 2023, the allegations claim she continued her affair with Fu. The younger sister confronted Fu at a university leadership meeting, leading to a signed agreement for monthly child support payments. Neither Fu nor Zeng have publicly addressed the accusations yet. The two institutions, Wuhan and Anhui Universities, have initiated investigations into the matter.
