These words should not be uttered without solid evidence, and even if they were true, as an unmarried girl, she shouldn't talk too much about such matters.
"I'm not spreading gossip outside. I'm just letting you guys know, so when we see their family, we can keep our distance," Shen Yixiang stuck out her tongue at Chen Guizhi.

Often, people preferred to believe the juicy tidbits like "Huang Tao's affair" over the mundane reality of "just an ordinary quarrel". Once such a whisper started, it would be fanned into flames without any actual fire.
