Qu Moyu shuddered. He took a breath and eased his heart palpitations. He asked in a low voice, “Which hospital?”

“…”

“Mom, which hospital is he in?” This is the first time Qu Moyu has used such a tone to show his softness to someone since he was an adult, even if it is towards his mother.

“What are you doing? It’s just a minor surgery. He will be fine. I have arranged the follow-up. He will be compensated and you don’t need to worry about it anymore.”

Qu Moyu gritted his teeth and suppressed his anger: “Even if there is no ‘mark’, he is still my omega. This is a matter between us. You should not bother.”

“I’m doing it for your own good. You’re already engaged to Xiaochu. And it’s unclear how you can explain it to the Zhou family.” Mrs. Qu said indifferently, “Besides, do you think he wants to see you now?”

“I……”

“For such an important engagement banquet, it seems too insincere to leave as soon as you’re done with it. This marriage with the Zhou family is to solve the company’s financial problems. Which one is more important? Do you still need me to teach you?” Mrs. Qu asked obliquely. Looking at his son, “You don’t have to get emotional, right?”

Qu Moyu was so choked that he could not speak. Mrs. Qu is right. He should be glad that someone solved Shen Dai’s trouble for him when he was incapacitated so that the marriage could go on smoothly. The place he needs to go now is the banquet hall and what he needs to do is to maintain the relationship with Zhou’s in-laws. He should not go to Shen Dai in an impulsive manner.

It’s not like me at all. And it’s not something stupid that I would do, Qu Moyu said to himself.

It must be because he has just cleared the ‘mark’ His body and mind have not fully adapted. He cares about Shen Dai. But he knows what is ‘more important’.

Qu Moyu slowly lowered his head, the corners of his lips twitched. He was holding back something: “Did you arrange someone to take care of him?”

“Of course.”

“Which hospital is he in? Give him back to me. Tomorrow…”

“He won’t want to see you. So it’s time for you to correct your position.” Mrs. Qu’s tone became stern, “You were not from the same world. And now you have nothing to do with him. What else do you want to do with him? Play your role well and implement your own choices. Isn’t this the philosophy of the Qu family?”

Qu Moyu also raised his voice: “This is about me and him. Can you not interfere!”

“Do you dare to let your father know?”

Qu Moyu’s face was gloomy.

Mrs. Qu turned to face the mirror in the bathroom, smoothed her hair, and adjusted the priceless jade necklace on her fair neck. It was as if she said the next words to Qu Moyu and also herself, “Go back. It’s your own choice.”

Shen Dai was sitting in a chair in the waiting area of ​​the hospital. He was waiting for the car. Waiting for the car arranged for him by Mrs. Qu. This car will send him directly from the capital to Lancheng in the span of more than 1,000 kilometres.

He originally wanted to go by himself, but Mrs. Qu told him not to take public transportation. This is because Qu Moyu could easily find his whereabouts if he does. He actually didn’t think that Qu Moyu would come to look for him. There was no need for that. But after learning that Mrs. Qu couldn’t come to see him because he was afraid of being followed by Qu Moyu, he wanted to be cautious just for the safety of the child.

He has been really busy these days.

The three days after the operation was a nightmarish experience. He was tied to the operating table and endured excruciating pain. Although the wound was not big, the damage to the glands caused his internal circulation to become unbalanced. Due to the stress caused by the pain, he couldn’t fall asleep normally. He also did not dare to move his body. He was always dizzy and nauseated. He vomited everything he ate and was always worried that he would have a miscarriage. The doctor had informed him about this risk before the operation. If he suffered such a crime and the child was still not saved, it could only be said that it wasn’t meant to be. Fortunately, under the doctor’s careful care, his body gradually recovered.

But the wound on the soul will never heal. When he woke up, he could no longer feel the ebony pheromones that had been deposited in his body, nor could he feel Qu Moyu. It was as if the tightly entwined vines that provided nutrients to each other were brutally stripped and the sharp barbs scraped them down to pieces of flesh and blood. It was something that had been dug away in his life, leaving behind a huge void of belief. It was far deeper and more painful than the scar on the back of the neck gland.

In those three days, more than the physical and mental pain, what afflicted him was the endless loneliness. Also, the sadness of facing the pain alone and not even having an acquaintance to pour him a cup of hot water. Under such despair, he had more expectations and reliance on the unformed foetus in his womb. Maybe it was God’s mercy. Maybe it was because of belief, it was unfortunate that the child was still in his body after all this tossing. The child has such good luck.

He strengthened his love and responsibility for this child even more. Looking at his life, he thought that it was not this child who needed him But it was he who needed this child.

After his body recovered, he began to deal with the family and business affairs.

He declined Madam Qu’s sponsorship, but accepted her help for other things. He still had hundreds of thousands of cash in his hand. Mrs. Qu helped him transfer the money to a trusted account, so that others could not track him through consumption.

He bought a new mobile phone and made a long phone call to his grandmother, explaining that he was in some trouble and needed to be transferred for a year. He thought his grandmother would have a lot of questions, but grandmother seemed to sense his cover-up and embarrassment. So she thoughtfully didn’t ask too much. Although her voice was choked, she just told him to take good care of himself and not worry about her. He couldn’t let go of his grandmother, but he had to settle down first before he could consider taking her over. However, the medical conditions in Lancheng are much worse than those in Beijing. Perhaps it is best for his grandmother to stay here. Shen Qin is rich now. Naturally, he will not neglect his mother. This matter can only be discussed after he has stabilised in Lancheng.

He sent a group email to his colleagues, explaining that he needed a period of recuperation due to illness. He had few close friends and the social relationships that needed to be maintained were basically these colleagues and friends in the academic circle only.

He called the teacher and Cheng Zimei again and told them the truth. He can’t go back to resign now. Anyway, Qu Moyu asked him to take a long-term sick leave. So he will just do it for the time being. He is not suitable for work now. It’s better to finish writing the thesis during this period.

Liu Xi sighed for a long time and finally let him go to Gansu, where the mining area also belongs to Xingzhou. The person in charge of the research institute is his fellow senior brother, who not only can help him in personal life, but also support him with materials, equipment, and data collection for his thesis. It is now the best place to go.

Shen Dai was very grateful to the teacher and felt extremely guilty. The teacher had trained him for nearly ten years. He treated him like someone who would take over his positions someday, but he just walked away. Even he couldn’t forgive himself. He didn’t know how to pull the timeline. It has grown to the length of a lifetime, whether the choice at this moment is right or wrong for him, worth it or not, from the moment he made the choice, he can no longer turn back. He must go on with it tenaciously.

Liu Xi did not reproach him. He instead comforted him: “You are still young. It is normal for you to have several ups and downs in your academic career. As long as you don’t give up, you will have the opportunity to achieve results at any time in the future. “

Shen Dai’s tears fell when he heard it: “Teacher, I swear I will not give up. I will go to Lancheng to help Senior Brother Bai to do some work. In the future, as long as I can do it, you can use me as you like.”

“Go ahead. You have always been very clear about what you want. And you have plans and implementations. I believe that you can control your own life.”

When the car arranged by Mrs. Qu arrived, Shen Dai took his luggage and walked out of the hospital.

After getting in the car, Shen Dai closed his eyes and adjusted his breath for a moment before he mustered the courage to open his mobile phone and searched for a press release about the engagement of the heir of Xingzhou Group.

The two people in the photo are well-matched. At first glance, it is a perfect combination between S-class alpha and omega. The pheromone level, family background, and talent and appearance are very well-matched. This is normal and reasonable.

Shen Dai slowly revealed a bitter smile.

He was unsure if it was because Qu Moyu’s ‘mark’ had disappeared that it was like he finally woke up from a dream. He finally realized how stupid he was to expect Qu Moyu to respond to his feelings. In the eyes of the S-class alpha, he is just a cheap stone, and his vain attempt to exchange the stone for real gold, silver, jade and diamond was not love. It was only greed to him. Thinking about how Qu Moyu had treated him, he understood how cheap and unbearable he is in Qu Moyu’s eyes.

He doesn’t have the strength to love nor the strength to hate. He just wants to bring his life that has gone astray a little bit back on the right track.

*Translator’s note: I just want Sundae to have a good life without Cuttlefish anymore. I remember that was what I wanted when I first read this chapter back then. But meh… -K

Qu Moyu: Even if there is no ‘mark’, he is still my omega.

Me: You piece of shit! He is not your omega anymore, you dickwad!
