Qu Shen only looked at Shen Dai without a smile: “Don’t worry. The Qu family will not treat you badly. And you will have the rights as Moyu’s wife should have.” It was because Shen Dai knew Qiuqiu’s pheromone level that he acted like that. But the father and son thought he didn’t know it yet. So he didn’t dare to startle the snake. He resisted his anger and said, “Director Qu, Qiuqiu is still breastfeeding. And Moyu and I also need more time to get along with each other. I hope you can let us handle our and our child affairs ourselves.”
“Whether to marry or not is of course up to you. But the child is not just your business. Qiuqiu is the alpha of my Qu family and can be the heir. Going to Qu’s house is something that many people only dare to dream of. He will have the best life.” Qu Shen looked at Shen Dai deeply, “You should also think about Qiuqiu.”
“Qiuqiu is still too young. I’m not ready.”
Qu Shen narrowed his eyes slightly and turned to Qu Moyu. He is sending signals with his eyes to wait for Qu Moyu to give him an explanation.
Qu Moyu knew that Shen Dai was very sensitive to the matter of Qiuqiu’s custody. He said, “Father, there is no need to worry about that now. Let us handle it ourselves.”
“What are you going to do? You and the Zhou family had also broken off the engagement by wanting to ‘handle it yourself’. The Zhou family cut off a piece of our meat.” Qu Shen sneered, “Didn’t you want to marry him regardless of being dead or alive? And now I agree to your marriage. Why shouldn’t you be in a hurry?”
Qu Moyu’s face was unsightly. He glanced at Shen Dai secretly: “Give us some time.”
“My son is the S-class alpha. You still want to wait for your omega to decide for you? Aren’t you funny?” Qu Shen mocked him.
Madam Qu whispered: “Let them go back and discuss it themselves. Don’t push it when you meet like this. You’re really scaring the children.”
Qu Shen let out a “hum” from his nose and glared at Qu Moyu: “Then tell me the result of your discussion.” He got up and went upstairs.
The three adults fell silent at the same time. Only Qiuqiu was sucking his fingers in a low voice.
Madam Qu sighed softly: “You guys go home first.”
Shen Dai nodded at her. He then held Qiuqiu from Qu Moyu’s arms, turned around and left.
“Ah Dai.” Qu Moyu took a few steps to match with his speed, “You slow down. The threshold in front is a bit high.”
Shen Dai slowed down when he heard the words. He stepped over carefully and looked up at Qu Moyu. His eyes were deep and gloomy: “The threshold of your Qu family is of course high.”
“Ah Dai, don’t be angry.” Qu Moyu took a deep breath, “Don’t be so sensitive when you hear about custody. No one is robbing you of your child. Qiuqiu is yours. He’s mine too. We are a family.”
Shen Dai gritted his teeth: “What if I don’t want to become a family with you? What if I don’t want Qiuqiu to become a family member of the Qu family?”
Qu Moyu’s face turned pale.
“But I don’t have a choice, do I?” Shen Dai said in a trembling voice, “I have never had the right to choose in front of you.” Just because he is an omega, he must submit to an alpha in his life?! This is determined by genes. This is determined by evolution. This is determined by the world. And he has no other choice. In this case, why did God even give him the ability to think!
“…Why can’t you choose me?” Qu Moyu’s eyes were filled with unspeakable sadness. He experienced indifference and frustration over and over again portrayed by his omega. In the past, he couldn’t even imagine being treated this way. He never thought he would allow a person to hurt himself so recklessly. He was full of fear for someone to have power over him, but he couldn’t resist this person. He just pleaded with a humbleness that he didn’t even realise he has, “You know I can’t let you go. If you can choose me again, like me again, I will treat you with everything that I have. And I will never disappoint you again.”
Shen Dai stared at Qu Moyu. His vision became more and more blurred. He thought to himself that if he didn’t know the truth, would he be shaken by Qu Moyu’s repeated, seemingly sincere and persistent words and deeds? He could have pretended not to know. Even if it was for Qiuqiu’s and his grandmother’s sake. He could cooperate with Qu Moyu in this parent-child play. But how could the Qu family be content with the status quo? How could they bear the heir of the S-class alpha having another surname?
He felt himself in a quagmire. He is unable to be saved without struggling and he is only sinking faster when he struggles to get out.
***
On Monday morning, Shen Dai was stopped by Qu Shen’s driver on his way to work. He walked into a nearby teahouse and was taken into a quiet room where Qu Shen sat alone. He was seemingly calm, but it was clear that he was about to be jumped at any time by a beast and he would be torn apart. This person is not an S-class alpha, but his years of immersion in the ups and downs of the business world and power struggles, as well as his status as the owner of Xingzhou, make him far more majestic and fearful than Qu Moyu.
Shen Dai held the phone tightly in his pocket. He wanted to run and even wanted to call Qu Moyu. Even though the idea was a bit ridiculous, the surnamed Qu is still one family. Qu Moyu is the best example of what the Qu family is capable of in this world. It is impossible to ask for his help. But at this time, a message from Qu Moyu after arriving home that night appeared in his mind: I will communicate with my father. I will not force you, nor will you be wronged. Have faith in me.
He saw that Qu Shen was quietly approaching and swallowing him, but he didn’t know who to ask for help.
Qu Shen, however, looked kind and happy: “Xiao Shen, please take a seat.”
Shen Dai sat down stiffly. Qu Shen took the initiative to pour him a cup of tea: “Try this. I always carry four or five kinds of tea in my trunk all year round. This small green orange tea is suitable for young people.”
Shen Dai slowly moved the small teacup in front of him.
“Are you afraid of me?” Qu Shen smiled, “I used to be your boss. But we will become a family in the future. You can adapt to the change in this relationship in advance.”
Shen Dai is not good at being a sociable person. Nonetheless, he has been in the workplace for many years. Whether the leader is really friendly or is using him as a means to achieve the goal, he already has some prior judgement. He also believes that Qu Shen is an absolute leader in manipulating people. So even this kind of face-to-face meeting… It’s not that Qu Shen only pretends to be friendly, but it’s done intentionally.
Qu Shen just wanted to make him afraid.
Shen Dai picked up the teacup and took a sip: “Thank you, Director Qu.”
“I want to chat with you about our unfinished topic that day.” Qu Shen looked into Shen Dai’s eyes and said slowly, “Moyu is more and more fond of you. If you have feelings, you will be less decisive in dealing with things. So don’t blame me for being anxious. I am doing this for your own good and even more so for Qiuqiu’s good.”
Shen Dai also stared at Qu Shen and asked each word clearly, “If Qiuqiu is not S-class, would you care for his good?”
Qu Shen smiled: “Even if he is not S-class, after all, he is part of Qu’s family. No matter what kind of class he is in, he will have no worries about food and clothing. In fact, I hope he is an ordinary alpha, so his life will be easier. But fate has already chosen this path for him and he has to work harder to make up for the status of being an illegitimate child. Regarding this flaw, his parents can’t help him sort it out.”
Shen Dai’s hand under the table clenched tightly: “In your eyes, are we people or tools?”
“This kind of question.” Qu Shen’s expression was very subtle. It is also very indifferent, “It is true that you will ask me of that.”
Qu Shen’s words clearly have a profound meaning, which can be extended to – “It is indeed your class, gender and pheromone level that determine your worth.“
Shen Dai felt the invisible gravity falling on his chest, oppressing his breathing.
“Xiao Shen, I don’t want to delay your work. I know you are very dedicated. So let’s get straight to the point.” Qu Shen took a sip of tea, “I only knew Qiuqiu’s pheromone level that day, now that I know it…”
“How did you know about that?” Shen Dai interrupted him. He always thought that the Qu family knew about it for a long time. But Qu Shen did not know it until Saturday? In retrospect, the change in Qu Shen’s attitude before and after is indeed more logical.
“You Xinghai told me.” Qu Shen’s sharp eyes flashed coldness, “As for how he knew, I don’t know. But it’s not important. The important thing is that I can’t let my S rank alpha’s grandson have no identity of the Qu family.”
Shen Dai said solemnly: “He has an identity. He is my son.”
Qu Shen only said with a smile: “Of course. He is the son of you and Moyu. But his surname should be Qu. He should stand in front of the stage and enjoy all the benefits an S-class alpha eldest grandson of the Qu family should enjoy. Don’t you want your child to have the best?”
“I don’t think everyone needs to have the best. Everyone’s definition of ‘best’ is different.”
“It’s boring to talk about words like this. Xiao Shen, you are my daughter-in-law and you have given birth to such a good child as Qiuqiu. I can assure you that you will live a life you could never imagine before and get something you could never acquire before. I hope you can cooperate. First, give Qiuqiu’s custody to the Qu family. Let Qiuqiu be at his right place and when the time for filial piety is up, you will get married.”
Shen Dai clenched his back molars secretly and he intuitively asked if Qu Shen just wanted to take away Qiuqiu’s custody and not to let his son marry an omega who had nothing. Even if Qu Shen really wanted them to get married, he didn’t want to!
“Xiao Shen, don’t you believe me?” Qu Shen felt helpless, “The relationship between the two of you is well known now. Moyu really likes you and you are Qiuqiu’s biological father. So what reason do I have to stop you?”
Shen Dai’s body was tense. His teeth were shaking slightly and he whispered: “At the beginning, he didn’t even want this child. Qiuqiu was just my child.”
“The past is in the past.”
Shen Dai took a deep breath and drummed. Taking courage, he said, “I don’t want to marry him and I won’t give Qiuqiu custody to anyone.”
Qu Shen narrowed his eyes: “Aside from the conflict between you and Moyu, let’s just talk about Qiuqiu. Have you ever thought about what would happen if an S-class alpha grew up in an ordinary family or under a single parent?”
“I have the ability to raise him well!”
“Your ability?” Qu Shen said contemptuously, “You don’t have the ability to? I can’t imagine how high the self-esteem of S-class alphas is. Compared with ordinary people, they are like lions to the sheeps. They have absolutely superior innate conditions than everyone around them. But if he has no money or background, before he grows his fangs, he can’t even lift his head up high in front of some well-off sheeps. He needs to fight alone, bow his head countless times to countless sheeps he despises. He will be humble and arrogant. He will be repeatedly tortured by inferiority and pride. He will feel that they are all shackles when they are not talented. There are a few S-class alphas like this. They usually only have another ending. They became extreme predators.”

It is also very indifferent, It is true that you will ask me of that.Qu Shen's words clearly have a profound meaning, which can be extended to It is indeed your class, gender and pheromone level that determine your worth.Shen Dai felt the invisible gravity falling on his chest, oppressing his breathing.Xiao Shen, I don't want to delay your work. I know you are very dedicated. So let's get straight to the point. Qu Shen took a sip of tea, I only knew Qiuqiu's pheromone level that day, now that I know itHow did you know about that? Shen Dai interrupted him. He always thought that the Qu family knew about it for a long time. But Qu Shen did not know it until Saturday? In retrospect, the change in Qu Shen's attitude before and after is indeed more logical.You Xinghai told me. Qu Shen's sharp eyes flashed coldness, As for how he knew, I don't know. But it's not important. The important thing is that I can't let my S rank alpha's grandson have no identity of the Qu family.Shen Dai said solemnly: He has an identity. He is my son.Qu Shen only said with a smile: Of course. He is the son of you and Moyu. But his surname should be Qu. He should stand in front of the stage and enjoy all the benefits an S-class alpha eldest grandson of the Qu family should enjoy. Don't you want your child to have the best?I don't think everyone needs to have the best. Everyone's definition of best' is different.It's boring to talk about words like this. Xiao Shen, you are my daughter-in-law and you have given birth to such a good child as Qiuqiu. I can assure you that you will live a life you could never imagine before and get something you could never acquire before. I hope you can cooperate. First, give Qiuqiu's custody to the Qu family. Let Qiuqiu be at his right place and when the time for filial piety is up, you will get married.Shen Dai clenched his back molars secretly and he intuitively asked if Qu Shen just wanted to take away Qiuqiu's custody and not to let his son marry an omega who had nothing. Even if Qu Shen really wanted them to get married, he didn't want to!Xiao Shen, don't you believe me? Qu Shen felt helpless, The relationship between the two of you is well known now. Moyu really likes you and you are Qiuqiu's biological father. So what reason do I have to stop you?Shen Dai's body was tense. His teeth were shaking slightly and he whispered: At the beginning, he didn't even want this child. Qiuqiu was just my child.The past is in the past.Shen Dai took a deep breath and drummed. Taking courage, he said, I don't want to marry him and I won't give Qiuqiu custody to anyone.Qu Shen narrowed his eyes: Aside from the conflict between you and Moyu, let's just talk about Qiuqiu. Have you ever thought about what would happen if an S-class alpha grew up in an ordinary family or under a single parent?I have the ability to raise him well!Your ability? Qu Shen said contemptuously, You don't have the ability to? I can't imagine how high the self-esteem of S-class alphas is. Compared with ordinary people, they are like lions to the sheeps. They have absolutely superior innate conditions than everyone around them. But if he has no money or background, before he grows his fangs, he can't even lift his head up high in front of some well-off sheeps. He needs to fight alone, bow his head countless times to countless sheeps he despises. He will be humble and arrogant. He will be repeatedly tortured by inferiority and pride. He will feel that they are all shackles when they are not talented. There are a few S-class alphas like this. They usually only have another ending. They became extreme predators.Next update: 2022.08.31*Translator's note: Hate to admit it but what Qu Shen said about S-class alpha's pride was somewhat true. *sigh* But I believe in SD's ability to educate Qiuqiu well even without the Qu family's influence. -K
