Special Effects Pheromone - Chap 2
That day was a day of business networking for Qu Jing at the Yuan Yao Hotel.
The other person looked at Qu Jing and said, “I heard your ALPHA pheromones are very strong…”
Qu Jing shrugged and nodded, “You’re a BETA, so you might not feel it as strongly.”
“So, would an OMEGA’s scent be very apparent?” the other person asked with curiosity.
“It depends,” Qu Jing replied with a smile. “Sometimes when I encounter OMEGAs, especially during those special times without suppressants, they can be quite troublesome for me…”
The other person laughed, “What’s so troublesome about it? Just take your pants off!”
“Yeah, take off the pants and give them a shot of suppressant,” Qu Jing replied with a smile.
The other person still thought Qu Jing was joking, not knowing that Qu Jing indeed carried suppressants with him. Whoever got into heat, he would administer the shot.
The table was filled with people drinking heavily, losing their sense of composure. Only Qu Jing maintained control over his alcohol intake, pretending to be drunk but remaining quite clear-headed. When he had just graduated, he wasn’t accustomed to this style of “dealing business at the drinking table”, but since it involved earning money, he had to go with the flow.
A senior executive, quite drunk, waved his arms and said, “If you, this highly concentrated ALPHA, dare to spend a minute in an OMEGA restroom without causing chaos, I’ll sign the contract!”
Normally, Qu Jing would have pretended to collapse drunk and avoided responding to that challenge.
For Qu Jing, who already had a plan to make the other party sign the contract, there was no need to do something so tactless. However, when Qu Jing passed the restroom, he noticed an OMEGA restroom being cleaned, presumably with no one inside. He nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll go.”
Everyone’s eyes widened. An ALPHA with such intense pheromones entering an OMEGA restroom?
Amid the crowd’s cheers, he walked out of the private room and headed straight for the locked OMEGA restroom. The executive sent an assistant to follow him, who, standing several meters away, saw a sign on the restroom door saying “Being Cleaned.” He clicked his tongue, “Boring!” and turned back to report to the boss that “Qu is playing tough.”
Qu Jing didn’t evade, furrowing his brow, knocked on the door twice, entered and found no one cleaning. Instead, there was an OMEGA in heat.
He did as he usually did, took off the other person’s pants and administered a shot of special suppressant.
The beautiful OMEGA with a honey rose scent woke up, looking surprised when seeing Qu Jing.
Qu Jing asked, “Are you okay? How did you end up tied up in the restroom?”
Yu Zhao didn’t know Qu Jing and naturally had a guarded attitude. He didn’t say anything but silently pushed Qu Jing aside and staggered to stand up.
Qu Jing tried to help but was refused, “I can stand up by myself, thank you.”
Although Yu Zhao was warm and enthusiastic just moments before, he quickly turned cold.
At that moment, Yu Zhao’s “savior” finally arrived. It was a fashionably dressed OMEGA named Hua Yao. Hua Yao hurried in, saw Yu Zhao in disarray and an ALPHA standing there, was surprised and hurriedly went to Yu Zhao, asking, “Are you okay?”
Yu Zhao shook his head, “I’m fine.”
Hua Yao looked at Qu Jing with suspicion, “Who are you?”
Qu Jing also found it hard to explain how he ended up in the OMEGA restroom. He thought for a moment and pointed to the sign on the floor saying “Being Cleaned”, and said, “I’m here to clean the restroom.”
Both Hua Yao and Yu Zhao looked puzzled.
While they were perplexed, Qu Jing turned and left.
Seeing Qu Jing leave, Hua Yao quickly closed the restroom door again, turned to Yu Zhao and asked, “are you sure you are okay?”
Yu Zhao shook his head, feeling a mix of urgency and frustration from the recent scene. He hadn’t expected to go into heat in front of a stranger ALPHA; this was a huge humiliation.
Yet, at the same time, Yu Zhao felt a sense of relief. Thankfully, he had encountered this ALPHA, who administered a suppressant. If it were someone with malicious intentions…
Seeing Yu Zhao silent and not responding, Hua Yao grew increasingly anxious, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing,” Yu Zhao hurriedly explained, seeing Hua Yao so anxious, “Nothing happened.”
Now, Yu Zhao was in disarray and not in any condition to return to the table, so he went back first.
At the table, Cheng and Liu noticed that Yu Zhao had been gone for a long time without returning. They sighed and said, “This OMEGA has no courage, just left midway without saying a word…” Watching Xiao Qi “fighting alone”, who had been intoxicated by the others, Yu Yong took the two executives to continue elsewhere. He seemed to have had a good conversation and verbally agreed on the contract that evening, saying they’d sign it on another day.
Yu Yong was naturally ecstatic; never expecting to have a day snatching Yu Zhao’s limelight!
The next day, Yu Yong and Yu Zhao met outside the office. Yu Yong happily stopped him, “Oh, big brother, where did you go last night? Cheng and Liu were looking for you! They wanted to sign the agreement with you there. But since you weren’t there, they took advantage of me, hahaha!”
The words were mean, and Yu Zhao understood it was taunting. Reflecting on his sudden loss of control last night, he realized it was Yu Yong’s despicable maneuver.
Yu Zhao harbored anger in his heart but remained calm on the surface.
However, Xiao Qi, who was by Yu Zhao’s side, was visibly upset, saying, “I haven’t heard about the contract being signed yet!”
Yu Yong chuckled, “Almost there, just a matter of a couple of days. Once the contract is signed, I’ll treat everyone to a meal, haha!”
After saying this, he walked away feeling quite pleased with himself.
Xiao Qi was quite upset and only said to Yu Zhao, “Shouldn’t we expose him in advance…?”
“No,” Yu Zhao raised his hand, making a gesture to stop, “Let him expose himself.”
Xiao Qi actually admired Yu Zhao; he always remained calm. If it were him, he would have already smashed Yu Yong’s head with a big hammer.
Yu Yong found it strange himself. He thought Yu Zhao would be deeply affected, yet Yu Zhao seemed very composed. He worked as usual, showing no signs of stress.
“Could it be… yesterday, that ‘highly concentrated O’, if he didn’t use the suppressant, how come nothing went wrong?” Yu Yong couldn’t believe it.
Tang Donggu, who was beside Yu Yong, then said, “I told you earlier, Yong, if you’re going to do this, you need to go all the way. Arrange the ‘actors’ and ‘photographers’, and make a complete mess of it. Doing it halfway will only make him resentful, and that’s a constant threat.”
Yu Yong hesitated, “But we’re still brothers, right?”
Tang Donggu shook his head and clicked his tongue, “You only share the same ALPHA father, that doesn’t make you true siblings.”
Meanwhile, on Yu Zhao’s side, after finishing his work for the day, he left on time. Xiao Qi was quite surprised because for someone like Yu Zhao, who was a workaholic, “leaving on time” was akin to “leaving early.”
“Yu Zhao, leaving so early today?” Xiao Qi asked.
Yu Zhao nodded, saying, “Yes, I have something to attend to.”
“Something big enough to make you leave on time?,” Xiao Qi inquired.
Yu Zhao said, picking up his briefcase and checking his watch. “I have a blind date appointment.”
Xiao Qi’s jaw dropped—Yu Zhao is going on a blind date???
