Chapter 306 - Rumor (2/2)

“Haodong, how are you? Are you okay?”

Upon seeing him get out of the room, the three women all wanted to rush into his arms. However, after thinking of the other two, they all restrained themselves. The atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while.

“I’m fine. Are you hurt?”

Qin Haodong addressed Lin Momo and Qi Wan’er.

“We’re fine too!”

The two of them answered together.

Four people got together, yet there was no common topic for a while. Qin Haodong wanted to say something to ease the awkward atmosphere, but Lin Momo’s cell phone rang.

Liu Yage was calling. She said eagerly, “Momo, is that you? Are you alright? What about Haodong? Is he okay?”

It was very quiet around, so Liu Yage’s eager voice was heard clearly by everyone.

Lin Momo was stunned for a moment before saying, “I’m okay, and so is Haodong. Why did you ask this all of a sudden?”

“That’s good! Great! I was almost scared to death!” Liu Yage took a long breath and then said, “I don’t know who fabricated this rumor, but it’s said that you and Haodong were assassinated and both of you were killed. The Internet is plagued by this rumor.

Many reporters have arrived at Tangmen Company and are waiting outside. The employees in the company also heard the news. People were too flustered to work normally.”

“Sister Liu, don’t worry. You should inform the employees of the company that we’re okay. We’ll come back soon. Tell them to rest assured and go back to work. Tell the reporters that they can keep waiting. When they see me and Haodong, the rumor will be automatically proven wrong!”

Lin Momo hung up and turned to Qin Haodong.

“It seems that Wilson Company must think the two of us are dead. That’s why they spread this rumor. Their purpose is to destroy the production of the Blood Revival Pill.” Qin Haodong took Lin Momo’s hand and said, “Let’s go. Let’s go back now.”

“Wait a minute,” Nalan Wushuang said, “Look what you look like now. Anyone who sees you will know that you were actually assassinated. You should take a bath and change clothes before you go back.”

Qin Haodong and Lin Momo took a look at each other. They were both dusty and ragged. They were definitely not ready to appear in front of the public.

Thus, they rushed into the bathroom of the company and took a bath as fast as they could. Nalan Wushuang found new clothes for them. Then, they got into the car and rushed to Tangmen Traditional Chinese Medicine Company under the escort of Saber and the others.

Qin Haodong took out his cell phone and had a look. By now, the news about him and Lin Momo occupied the headlines of all the major online media.

“Qin Haodong, the inventor of the Blood Revival Pill, was assassinated at noon today. Whether it was a crime of passion or a homicide remains unknown…”

“Qin Haodong, the major shareholder of Tangmen Traditional Chinese Medicine Company, and Lin Momo, the president, died of love due to the intervention of a third party…”

“The Blood Revival Pill was a scam. A patient took the pill and died. His family killed Qin Haodong, who was the inventor…”

“The Blood Revival Pill’s leukemia treatment was a complete lie. While the authorities were about to investigate and deal with it, the people in charge committed suicide together…”

All kinds of news about them were all over the Internet, but there was one thing the articles had in common: They all agreed that Qin Haodong and Lin Momo were dead.

This news caused a huge stir on the Internet. However, due to the strict security measures of Daddy Security Company, no pictures of the explosion leaked out. At the same time, this caused many people to speculate and suspect what was happening.

Qin Haodong handed Lin Momo his cell phone and said with a smile, “The people of Wilson Company are quite confident that they can kill me by making a Cyborg. When we show up, I don’t know how surprised they will be.”

After putting down his cell phone, Lin Momo gazed at him with burning eyes and said, “Actually, they have good reason to think so. If you didn’t protect me with your life today, I would really be dead now.”

“It’s my fault,” Qin Haodong said, “I was too careless. I forgot that these people can set gadgets in a Cyborg. Otherwise, this would not have happened.”

Lin Momo sighed. “I think that it all comes down to me. If I hadn’t gotten drunk years ago, today’s events would not have happened.”

Qin Haodong, who didn’t want her to blame herself, hurriedly comforted her. “How can you say that? If you hadn’t gotten drunk, we wouldn’t have had such a lovely daughter.”

Although Lin Momo didn’t say anything else, she was still depressed.

They went back to Tangmen Company. As soon as they drove through the gate, they were surrounded by a lot of reporters.

Qin Haodong took Lin Momo’s hand and they walked out of the car together. The cameras flashed in the reporters’ hands. When they saw that the two of them were intact, all the rumors on the Internet disappeared.

Of course, these journalists didn’t want to return with nothing. Thus, they gathered around and started asking questions.

“Mr. Qin, have you seen the news on the Internet? How do you feel about the news?”

“President Lin, where have you and Mr. Qin been?”

“Doctor Qin, it’s said that you and Miss Lin met a killer. Is that true?”

Qin Haodong stopped and said, “I’m standing here with Momo, so you should know that the news on the Internet were mere rumors. Those who are against Tangmen Company will pay the price sooner or later.”

Then, he shot a deep look at the camera.
