Chapter 220: Accusation
Professor Dong turned on the light. The black chimpanzee in the cage slammed against the bars and growled.
Qiu Tong maintained her composure. Professor Dong seemed very satisfied with her reaction. “Have you heard of the human modification plan?”
He walked to a whiteboard filled with chemical equations and wiped away equations with an eraser.
Qiu Tong frowned and shook her head. “No.”
“Simply put, we are looking for a way to raise the limits of mankind and create a perfect human being…”
Professor Dong’s eyes were filled with fervor as he spoke, but Qiu Tong did not understand.
The development of humans had to conform to the laws of nature. If they relied on drugs and external forces, it was very likely that they would create dangerous creatures. Qiu Tong thought of the post-apocalyptic zombie riot and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. She did not give her opinion.
Professor Dong flipped through a thick stack of documents. He held up two bottles of chemicals excitedly and drew them into a syringe.
“The government had arranged for other scientists to lead this project, but they were incompetent and gave up halfway.”
“I am taking over the research now. I’ve found a better approach. I don’t know who spread the news, but it attracted the attention of those evil foreign forces. They are also very interested in the human modification plan, so I need you to protect me!”
“Until I successfully developed the formula…”
Professor Dong walked over to the chimpanzee with the syringe. He injected the liquid into its body. The chimpanzee’s face twisted as if it was in great pain.
Qiu Tong frowned and wanted to stop him, but then the chimpanzee quickly calmed down and looked at her with a sad expression.
Professor Dong took out a piece of paper and wrote down an equation and some numbers. He showed it to the chimpanzee who was able to choose the right answer!
“Did you see that? This is my result!”
Professor Dong looked back at Qiu Tong with a fervent expression. Qiu Tong just nodded perfunctorily.
It was evening when the two of them came out of the secret room. Qiu Tong drove Professor Dong home.
Outside the high-end apartment complex, Professor Dong suddenly heard rustling sounds from the bushes. He hurriedly pulled Qiu Tong to his side. Qiu Tong was annoyed by his actions, but she told herself that Professor Dong had already paid her deposit and she could not attack her employer.
She had no choice but to crawl along the bushes, only to see two stray cats hiding inside. “Don’t worry, I will ensure your safety.”
Professor Dong nodded and tidied his jacket before ringing the doorbell.
Qiu Tong watched him enter his house. She fiddled with her curly hair as she stood by the roadside to hail a taxi. She did not know that someone had secretly taken a picture of her and Professor Dong!
Lin Shan’s red lips curled up as she took the photo with her phone.
Anyone who saw this would mistakenly think that Qiu Tong and Professor Dong were having an affair!
She wanted to see how Qiu Tong would explain herself this time!
Lin Shan had made up her mind to cause trouble for Qiu Tong. She found information about Professor Dong online and hired a private investigator to dig out his wife’s phone number. She then sent those photos over…
“Qiu Tong, you always bring me trouble. Now, you can have a taste of what it is like to be accused of being a third party!”
…
It was the weekend. Professor Dong sent a message to Qiu Tong last night saying that she would not be needed today.
Qiu Tong was glad to be free. She busied herself in the kitchen, wanting to cook up some nutritional delicacies for the three children.
Ding dong—
The doorbell rang. Qiu Xingyu put down her toy and ran over to open the door.
A middle-aged woman wearing a heavy pearl necklace angrily pushed her aside and strode into the house!
Qiu Xingyu lost her balance and bumped hard against the shoe cabinet. She cried out in pain.
Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao hurried over. They stared at the middle-aged woman and asked warily, “Who are you?”
“What are you doing at our house?”
The middle-aged woman looked at the three children and shouted loudly, “Where’s Qiu Tong? Come out and see me!”
“You’re already a mother, but you still went out to steal my husband! Do you have no shame? Since you have the cheek to do it, you should dare to admit it!”
The middle-aged woman suddenly pushed the children away. Qiu Xingqiao could not bear hearing such insults about Qiu Tong, so he opened his mouth and bit her arm.
“Aiyo! No surprise that a mother like her would raise this kind of child!”
“Are you born in the year of the dog?”
The middle-aged woman was in pain from the bite. She raised her hand to slap Qiu Xingqiao, but Qiu Tong ran out of the kitchen and grabbed her elbow.
The door to the villa was open, and the commotion had already attracted some onlookers.
Qiu Tong recognized that she was Professor Dong’s wife and tried her best to explain in a calm tone, “Perhaps there’s some misunderstanding between us, I can explain.”
“But you can’t just insult my children and physically attack them!”
Qiu Tong shielded the children behind her as she stated this in a cold voice.
With a chilly smile, Madam Dong took out the photo from her handbag and threw it in front of Qiu Tong. “I have evidence!”
