Chapter 674: Chapter 674 Fainted (2)

Therefore, at this moment, Qin Zhenren’s first thought wasn’t of other members of the Qin family but of this always seemingly trustworthy business partner. After all, if this matter were truly a falsity, the one who would suffer the most wouldn’t be the Qin family, but Sun Shengguo.

"I’ll call right now." Zhang Yuanzhuo immediately dialed Sun Shengguo’s number, but as he made the call, he was prepared for the possibility that the call would be rejected or go unanswered. From the time Qin Corporation began their partnership with him, Zhang had harbored suspicions about Sun Shengguo, for he was too amiable and had too good a reputation to seem like a businessman. Now that a problem had arisen, Zhang’s suspicions only grew.

However, his intuition this time proved to be incorrect, as Sun Shengguo’s phone was quickly connected.

"President Sun, have you heard about the rumors regarding the new district?" Zhang Yuanzhuo was not an impatient man, but he could not remain calm this time. The latest investment had nearly consumed all his wealth, and if the news turned out to be false, not only would the Qin family face bankruptcy, but so would he!

"Put Chairman Qin on the phone." Although Zhang Yuanzhuo was anxious, Sun Guosheng clearly had no intention of discussing the matter with Zhang. With their different statuses, why should Sun Guosheng bother explaining anything to Zhang Yuanzhuo?

Zhang Yuanzhuo was both anxious and angry but managed to control his temper and passed the phone to an even more agitated Qin Zhenren.

The call didn’t last long. The two men exchanged just over a dozen brief sentences before Qin Zhenren stiffly threw the phone away and sat in his chair, his face etched with despair.

"How did it go? What did President Sun say? Don’t tell me this whole thing is actually a hoax?" Zhang Yuanzhuo urgently asked, but his heart had already turned cold, clearly reading something from Qin Zhenren’s expression.

"False, it’s all false, entirely false..." Qin Zhenren answered blankly.

And just at that moment, the office door was pushed open, and a group of people rushed in, among them Qin Zhenyi and Qin Zhenli, as well as Qin Ying and Qin Haowen.

"Big brother, what’s the truth behind these rumors? Have you heard anything? Why is everyone saying it’s false? How could that be?" Qin Zhenli burst in and immediately began to ask in a panicked state.

"Yes, what’s the truth? Do you have any news? With things as they are, you can’t keep us in the dark!" Qin Zhenyi also demanded, his face stern.

The expressions of the three Qin brothers were remarkably similar at this moment: panic, suspicion, a touch of incredulity, and despair. They dearly hoped the news was true. The nine-figure investment represented most of their fortunes, and to think that was all their life’s work amounted to.

The Qin family was in chaos, the Qin Corporation was in turmoil, and everyone connected to the Qin family and Qin Corporation were equally unsettled. The halt of the new district project, or rather, the public denials from influential figures, left many who were following the matter astonished and in disbelief. To think this matter had not only duped the Qin family but also countless citizens. After all, when the Qin Corporation made such grand moves, they could hardly keep them hidden. Yet no one had suspected that all this would turn out to be nothing but false news!

The news was fake, but the investments were real. The Qin family was in dire straits, and finance journalists were going crazy, swarming out in droves, fervently "caring" for the Quin family members. And then there was Qin Jiran, the uninvolved member of the Qin family, who was undoubtedly implicated as well.

"Brother Qin, I’ve taken more than twenty calls for interviews in this short time, it’s giving me a headache." Jiang Xiaobin had just hung up one call only to complain immediately afterward. This was clearly an affair of the Qin family, so why insist on involving Brother Qin? These people were really looking for trouble, it was extremely annoying.
