Chinese professor, 47, had alleged affair with student for 10 years, daughters write 86-page exposé
The exposé also contains allegations of the pair's academic misconduct.
A 47-year-old Chinese professor, Fu Lei, is facing severe allegations after his own daughters publicly accused him of maintaining a decade-long improper affair with a 35-year-old student, Zeng Mengqi. The 86-page exposé, published by Fu's 15 and 20-year-old daughters, details their mother's struggle after Fu abandoned his family in 2022.
Zeng, who is now a professor at Wuhan University, allegedly used Fu's online avatar, Conan, to communicate with her while subtly provoking Fu's wife through messages. The sisters claim Fu misappropriated university research funds and deprived other students of first authorship on publications. Zeng also allegedly used Fu as a ghostwriter for her academic journal articles, depriving them of credit.
The family's financial situation deteriorated severely, with the eldest daughter losing 15kg due to the stress of their mother managing the mortgage alone.
