C91 Sulfuric Acid
The following steps proceeded smoothly as planned. They first announced the decision to cancel the engagement between the two families, and then left the time for the media to ask questions.
Ever since the scandal of the young master of the Qiao family stepping on two ships was confirmed on the internet, the media had been guessing the direction of this love triangle. Among them, some people thought that Qiao Tianqi would cut off all relations with Hai Lanyin and face the existence of their original husband. Some people guessed that the Hai family would request for a rebuttal to the marriage.
Overall, although it was surprising that Qiao family and Hai family announced the annulment of the marriage so quickly, it was not unexpected. The media started to ask questions.
"May I ask if the Qiao family and the Hai family have decided to annulment the engagement first? Is there a reason why the Qiao's has been in a bad situation recently?"
"There is news that Second Miss Hai Xiaomin had the intention to cancel the marriage before this. Is it because she found out that her fiancé cheated on her half-sister?"
"Miss Hai, Mr. Qiao cheated on your sister. This matter has been confirmed. One of them was the former fiancé, and the other was the older sister who had lived with you for more than ten years. Do you have anything to say to these two? "
"Young Master Qiao, after your love triangle was exposed, the media took pictures of you and Miss Hai Lanyin together. May I ask if you have any plans to marry Miss Hai Lanyin after you break off the engagement with the Hai family's Second Miss? "
The questions asked by the media were extremely tricky and vicious. However, both parties were mentally prepared for the questions. Although they looked a little awkward, they still answered calmly.
"Get out of the way!" Suddenly, an extremely discordant voice sounded from the media seats. Immediately after, she saw a person charge forward. She angrily cursed, "All of you, go to hell!"
As she spoke, she suddenly smashed a glass bottle onto the stage!
The bottle hit the organizer's table edge.
In an instant, glass fragments and liquid splattered, and people screamed and dodged.
As the bottle's target was Qiao Tianqi and Hai Xiaomin, they were the closest to the accident. Hai Xiaomin was so scared by the sudden change that she screamed and dodged. Qiao Tianqi reacted quickly and raised his hand to protect her.
"Catch him! Don't let him escape." In the camera, the perpetrator took advantage of the chaos to escape, leaving only the back view of the crowd. And the scene was in chaos, screaming nonstop.
When Tang Xuan saw this, he suddenly got up, grabbed his jacket, and rushed out of the office.
The bottle was filled with sulfuric acid. Many people were injured. The press conference was forced to stop midway. The organizers carried out an emergency evacuation, and the injured were immediately sent to the hospital.
The faucet was turned on, and Qiao Tianqi placed his hand in the water to wash it. His face was covered with water stains that had just been washed. Even though he had used mineral water to rinse his face the moment he was splashed by sulfuric acid, his skin had still been corroded, and he now felt a strong burning pain.
"How are you?" Hai Xiaomin opened the bathroom door and came in. She handed him a soda.
"I'm fine." Qiao Tianqi took his hand out and shook it. He took the soda water.
Hai Xiaomin looked at the burn marks on the back of Qiao Tianqi's hand and frowned. She saw him pour the soda water on his face awkwardly. She reached out and took the bottle. "Let me do it."
It was all thanks to Qiao Tianqi protecting her that she was unharmed. However, the back of his hand and his cheeks were splashed. The back of his hand was easy to handle, but the piece behind his cheek was in his blind spot.
Hai Xiaomin used the sterilized cotton swab she found and dipped it in soda water. Qiao Tianqi also cooperated when he saw this and exposed his face.
"Luckily it did not splash on your face, or else you would have been disfigured." She used soda water to wipe his wound over and over again. She suddenly thought of something and lowered her head to rummage through her bag. "Oh right, I have medicine here. You should rub it and take a look."
She took out an ointment that did not have any markings on it. Qiao Tianqi frowned when he saw it. He couldn't help but suspect that she was sincere in wanting to mess with him. He rejected her coldly, "Forget it."
"The external medicine produced by the LY is very effective. The most important thing is that it won't leave a scar! If it wasn't for your gentlemanly performance today, I wouldn't have given it to you!" Although Hai Xiaomin's words were not pleasant to the ears, but she was kind in her heart. Under Qiao Tianqi's skeptical gaze, she squeezed some ointment on the cotton swab. She forcefully pulled his hand and applied medicine on him.
During this time, Qiao Tianqi kept staring at her with a strange gaze.
Hai Xiaomin was not in a good mood, "Don't think that everyone is like you and cannot see other people well."
Qiao Tianqi saw that she was really angry, so he restrained himself and started to talk about proper business. "How is it? Did he get caught?"
Hai Xiaomin shook her head and said with a serious expression, "He escaped."
"Do you know who did it?"
"I have no idea." She thought about it and stared at Qiao Tianqi. "He should be here for you, right? Recently, there were a lot of people who hated Qiao's. Didn't they often come to your place to protest?"0
Qiao Tianqi JunPang twisted his face. "I am talking about the couple!"
When he said the last word, he deliberately pouted at Hai Xiaomin. He looked like he deserved a beating.
Hai Xiaomin endured it and only then did she control herself not to use too much force when she was applying medicine. After she finished applying the medicine for him, she casually threw the used cotton swab into the paper basket. "Do you have any clues?"
That person came for the two of them. Was he a busybody affected by the public opinion online, or was he someone they had offended together?
"Could it be Lee Hao?" She suddenly thought of a suspicious person.
Qiao Tianqi's eyes went deep. " Regardless of whether it's him or not, we should be careful when we go out recently. That person has an underworld background. If you cripple his son and throw him into prison, I'm afraid that person won't let you off easily. "
It was rare for the two of them to think of one thing at the same time. Lee Hao indeed had a reason to hate them. These days, Hai Xiaomin had either stayed in the LY or stayed at home. She did not know what Lee Hao had done after he found out about his son's accident. However, she had heard about the results of the hot spring water test.
"He deserves it. He actually dared to place such a deadly chemical poison in public waters. It's not an exaggeration to sentence him to death!" Speaking of this, Hai Xiaomin was filled with righteous indignation.
" Don't stare at me like that. I didn't know beforehand that it was poisonous. " Qiao Tianqi's expression was slightly unnatural. He looked away and said to himself, "I think he took the initiative to change the medicine. I don't know where he got these things."
Change the medicine?
Hai Xiaomin was stunned. She did not have time to think about the information he accidentally revealed. Qiao Tianqi's phone rang and interrupted her thoughts.
Qiao Tianqi's right hand was injured and it was inconvenient for him to take the phone. Hai Xiaomin could only help him take the phone out from the pocket of the suit. She saw the caller at first glance.
She handed the phone to Qiao Tianqi. "It's from my sister."
"You go out first." Qiao Tianqi picked up the phone and turned around. His tone was very gentle. "Lanyin, did you see everything on TV? Don't worry, I'm fine."
Hai Xiaomin's five fingers tightened and then weakly loosened. She quietly left the bathroom.
If Hai Lanyin insisted on avoiding them and not seeing them... What could she do? The last thing she said to her was that she did not regret it. She was so resolute.
