Apex Predator - Chap 60

After dinner, Xiaodie was cleaning up in the kitchen, while Shen Dai and Bai Xiangwan were playing with Qiuqiu.

Shen Dai was afraid that Qiuqiu would sleep too much during the day and make trouble at night, so he woke him up. The little guy was reluctant and howled twice. After being hugged by Bai Xiangwan, he lost his frizz for no reason. He grabbed Bai Xiangwan’s button and began to play seriously.

“He recognizes you very much now, and he can calm down when he is with you.” Shen Dai said helplessly.

Bai Xiangwan stuck Qiuqiu’s soft face with his thumb and index finger, squeezed it lightly, and said with a smile, “He likes my pheromone.”

Qiuqiu raised his head, grinning, as if agreeing. up.

Bai Xiangwan’s pheromone is white elm. The fruit stone of this tree is used as medicine to calm the nerves. Although it is also woody, it is not bitter. Instead, it smells warm and full of sunshine and vitality, like Bai Xiangwan. This person is also solid and powerful, no wonder Qiuqiu likes it.

Recently, Qiuqiu has grown longer and more out of shape. It is completely different from the black, wrinkled, and small appearance when he was born. The eyes are round, big and bright, the nose is straight, the skin is white and tender, there is only a layer of down on the top of the head, and the eyelashes are thick. Amazing looking, always smiling, the kind of really pretty baby you’d see in a baby ad. People who met him said that he looked like Shen Dai, but no matter how Shen Dai looked at him, he felt that he was more like Qu Moyu, and he didn’t know if it was a psychological effect.

“Look at his legs.” Bai Xiangwan straightened one of Qiuqiu’s slender legs. “According to the proportion of his body, this kid has long hands and long feet. He will definitely be tall in the future.” “Yes, he is an alpha after all

. “Shen Dai said with a smile, “He can eat and pull.”

“Xiaodie said he is very troublesome now?”

“Well, he is too energetic, I plan to hire another night shift aunt, otherwise Xiaodie and I will take turns After waking up at night, he will be sleepy during the day and unable to work.”

“Qiuqiu doesn’t want to sleep because he lacks a sense of security, and he needs AO pheromone to soothe him now, and the baby will cry if he doesn’t feel safe.” Bai Xiang Wan handed Qiu Qiu to Shen Dai’s arms, and took out a few pieces of paper from the briefcase, “This is my hundred-day gift to Qiu Qiu.”

Shen Dai accepted it puzzledly, and saw that it was a receipt from the city hospital: “This is it?” ”

I went to the city hospital to make some essential oils for soothing pheromones for Qiuqiu, and the nurse said that it could be ready in three days.” You can pick this up tomorrow.”

Shen Dai stared blankly at Bai Xiangwan, “Senior Brother…”

“I am the only alpha that Qiuqiu has access to now, and he also likes my pheromones, which is not what he should be.” Do you?” Bai Xiangwan poked Qiuqiu’s fat belly, and joked, “Take me as a father, right?”

Shen Dai was extremely embarrassed, as he and Bai Xiangwan didn’t have a deep friendship when they were in college After Bai Xiangwan was transferred to Lancheng, they only had occasional contacts at work. Even for the sake of the teacher, Bai Xiangwan was not obliged to help him like this, but this year, he has benefited everywhere, How could he afford such kindness? He sighed softly and said with a smile, “Brother Bai, I don’t even know how to thank you.

” It can be used for a year, and Qiuqiu will not need it when he is older.”

“Well, I also thank you for Qiuqiu.”

“Don’t say thank you, you also gave me a few months of free work , when you recover, can you consider officially joining the job?”

Shen Dai looked at Bai Xiangwan hesitantly, hesitating to speak.

“Adai, you seem to have been avoiding something. I know you don’t want to talk about it, and the teacher told me not to ask you, but everyone has a past, and everyone has to move forward. If you tell me your difficulties , maybe I can help you, at least I can give you a stable job.” ”

I know, I’ve recovered, and I must be looking for a job.” Shen Dai smiled wryly, “My situation It’s really embarrassing. My file is still in the research institute in Beijing. I’m on serious sick leave. I haven’t formally resigned. Although your side is an independent personnel, I can’t transfer my tax and social security. I have to go back to the office first. Jingcheng will settle these matters.”

“Let the teacher greet you and go through the process, it should be very fast.”

Shen Dai nodded with a dry smile: “Yes, after a while.” He had to consider far more than just a job, what to do with Qiuqiu, what to do with grandma, and how to plan his career in the future, all of these problems need to be solved urgently .

Bai Xiangwan stared at Shen Dai for a few seconds: “Your main problem is not this, is it related to…Qiuqiu, right?”

Shen Dai knew that what Bai Xiangwan really wanted to talk about was “Qiuqiu’s alpha father” In fact, he thinks that Bai Xiangwan knows something. There are many of their classmates and colleagues in the capital. The circle of the rare earth industry is very small, and gossip spreads quickly. He could guess it, but Bai Xiangwan kept silent, which made Shen Dai very grateful.

Shen Dai nodded: “However, don’t worry, I will deal with it as soon as possible.” His savings can’t be allowed to be consumed like this. Although the consumption level in Lancheng is low, it is still very frustrating to sit and eat.

“Okay, I look forward to your official coming to work in my laboratory.” Bai Xiangwan looked at his watch, “I’m going back first, and I have a report to write. I’m checking the question you asked me a few days ago. I’ll discuss the materials with you when I’m ready.”

“Okay, see you later.”

Shen Dai hugged Qiuqiu to send Bai Xiangwan off, at first Qiuqiu was still cheerful, but just as Bai Xiangwan opened the door, he had a premonition When he saw something, he cried with a “wow”, and his little hands scratched in the air towards the direction of the door.

“Okay, okay, don’t cry, the movement is really loud.” Shen Dai felt his eardrums buzzing.

Bai Xiangwan suppressed a smile, and backed away again, wrapping around Qiuqiu’s little paw, and gave a soft “shh”.

Qiuqiu immediately stopped crying, and looked at Bai Xiangwan with tears in his eyes.

“Brother, don’t spoil him like this. He relies too much on you, and it will be even harder for us to coax.”

Bai Xiangwan walked over, suddenly lowered his head, pressed against Qiuqiu’s face, released a little pheromone, and coaxed softly : “Stop making trouble, Qiuqiu.”

Qiuqiu obviously calmed down, but he was in Shen Dai’s arms, so close, Bai Yu’s gentle and steady pheromone invaded Shen Dai’s nerves so defenselessly, Shen Dai was stunned for a split second. There is a feeling of scalp over-electricity.

Since he washed off the marks more than a year ago, his gland function has become more sluggish than before, not only the smell of epiphyllum pheromones has become weaker, but also his ability to perceive other people’s pheromones has decreased. Washing the mark would have caused a certain degree of damage to the glands, not to mention that he did not take anesthesia at that time, it was an experience he dared not recall the most, when he was tied to the operating table like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered and endured severe pain, To this day, it still causes nervous tingling pain in the back of his neck from time to time. Moreover, because of his screams and struggles, the doctors are naturally terrified and restrained when performing the operation. The effect of the operation and postoperative recovery are greatly reduced.

However, for him now, if it is not for raising his own children, the glands are almost useless, if they are damaged, they will be damaged. But just now he sensed Bai Xiangwan’s pheromone, and even his body had a normal reaction when receiving the invasion of the opposite sex pheromone, which proved that his gland function had recovered a little. This is a good thing, after all, no one wants to have problems with their parts.

Bai Xiangwan stood up straight and took a step back, staring at Shen Dai: “I’m sorry.” Compared with apologizing for accidentally offending someone, his eyes were more of an inquiry.

“It’s okay.” Shen Dai grabbed Qiuqiu’s little hand and waved it, smiling, “Goodbye to Uncle Bai.” After

Bai Xiangwan left, Xiaodie also finished cleaning up. She washed some strawberries, and the three of them sat next to each other on the sofa Eat and watch a movie.

“Why is Qiuqiu so honest today?” Xiaodie asked casually.

“Your Teacher Bai left some pheromone on him.”

“Oh, I heard that Teacher Bai’s pheromone smells good, Bai Yushu?”

“Yes, it smells good.”

Xiaodie turned her head to look at Shen Dai, and smiled Said: “Mr. Shen, Mr. Bai is really kind to you.”

“Yes.” Shen Dai said with emotion, “He specially went to the hospital to make pheromone essential oil for Qiuqiu, which made me very embarrassed.”

“Wow.” Xiaodie’s eyes were shining brightly, “Teacher Bai is a workaholic, usually very cold towards others, I think he is the most gentle towards you, and treats Qiuqiu like his own son.

” At this point, Shen Dai no longer understands what Xiaodie means, so he is pretending to be stupid, but unfortunately he can only play stupid: “Senior brother is just not good at communication.” “Indeed, that’s why Mr. Bai

treats you…”

” It’s a bit late, I’ll go and put Qiuqiu to bed first.” Shen Dai couldn’t take this kind of trouble. Between him and Bai Xiangwan, there shouldn’t be any awareness of thinking in that direction.

Xiaodie blinked and looked at Shen Dai, hesitated for a moment, and didn’t say anything further.

Shen Dai took the warm baby bottle, carried Qiuqiu into the room. Qiuqiu ate very well at first, but his eyelids started to fight as he ate, and finally he couldn’t open his eyes, and his little mouth was still sucking.

Shen Dai just stared at Qiuqiu like that, with a smile on his face.

Qiuqiu fell asleep, Shen Dai wiped his mouth, put him in the crib, and continued to watch quietly.

The world of adults is always windy and rainy, but when looking at this child, the soul can get a moment of peace and comfort. Every day, he is grateful to the existence of Qiuqiu for giving him endless strength, allowing him to face everything that frightens him.

It’s time for him to face it, for the future of himself and his children.
