Special Effects Pheromone - Chap 23

Qu Jing’s car drove smoothly, much like the man himself, exuding a reliable and reassuring aura. Perhaps this was a necessary quality for the owner of a startup company?

Yu Zhao thought that Qu Jing had started his own business and established his own company, likely starting with nothing. The personal charm of a boss is like a rope that gathers everyone’s hearts.

In a daze, Yu Zhao suddenly asked Qu Jing, “Why did you want to be your own boss in the first place?”

Qu Jing was somewhat surprised by the question but smiled at Yu Zhao’s curiosity. “ALPHAs all want to be their own bosses.”

“Oh…”

“It’s written in our genes,” Qu Jing replied.

Yu Zhao didn’t say much.

Qu Jing glanced at Yu Zhao’s face and said, “Don’t you believe it?”

Yu Zhao hesitated for a moment, considering Qu Jing’s position as a client, and then said, “No, you make a valid point.”

Qu Jing, continuing to drive, tried to interpret Yu Zhao’s thoughts. After a while, he said, somewhat incredulously, “Do you think I’m talking about being an ALPHA is superior? That I’m looking down on you?”

Yu Zhao’s heart jumped, and he quickly denied, “I didn’t mean that.”

Qu Jing said, “ALPHAs are naturally competitive, but not all ALPHAs are cut out to be bosses. The same goes for OMEGAs—some are suited to be employees, and some can be bosses. You belong to the latter category. If you want to be a boss, I’ll definitely support you.”

Surprised by Qu Jing’s words, Yu Zhao listened attentively.

Qu Jing, sensing Yu Zhao’s shock, also felt surprised. “Did I say something wrong?”

Qu Jing thought he spoke quite well, and he expected Yu Zhao to be delighted with his words.

Yu Zhao, still in a daze, said, “You… don’t want me to be a full-time househusband?”

Qu Jing asked in amazement, “Do you want that?”

Yu Zhao nodded and said, “I’ve considered it as an option.”

“You’re considering?” Qu Jing was quite surprised. He thought Yu Zhao was career-oriented and hadn’t expected him to contemplate becoming a househusband.

Yu Zhao had considered it long ago and said, “Of course, I’m not saying it’s a definite decision. But if you request my full commitment to building a family and establishing social relationships, I have no problem with that. It’s common and reasonable for an ALPHA to require his partner to manage household chores and social relationships, given the challenges of an ALPHA’s work.”

Many OMEGAs became full-time wives or husbands after marriage but also helped their ALPHAS with their social networks. Duan Keyi was such a “full-time husband,” and he did quite well.

Yu Zhao believed that Qu Jing might also have such needs; otherwise, he couldn’t understand why a young and wealthy ALPHA like Qu Jing would be in such a hurry to get married.

Qu Jing, as if confirming once again, said seriously, “Are you saying that if I need a ‘social’ husband, you would resign from the position of CEO at Yu group and help me build my social circle?”

“Yeah,” Yu Zhao replied unequivocally.

Qu Jing took a deep breath, feeling moved. “My rose! You love me so much!”

Qu Jing was on the verge of tears from the overwhelming emotions.

“Oh, my rose…” Qu Jing’s tone was like the male protagonists in Shakespearean love dramas, “How can you be so good…”

Yu Zhao furrowed his brow, looking at Qu Jing with confusion.

Qu Jing, his emotions settling a bit, spoke with a warm and gentle smile, “I can tell you, I don’t need you to sacrifice your career for me.”

Yu Zhao sighed after a while, saying, “But honestly, It was my goal to inherit the Yu group but now, I don’t find much meaning in working there.”

Qu Jing chuckled and said, “will you consider coming to Jingmen?”

Yu Zhao was taken aback. “Is there even a position for me to fill?”

He had never seen a CEO appoint his partner to a high-ranking position in the company.

“Right, there’s currently no suitable arrangement,” Qu Jing said. The company’s structure was complete, and finding a suitable position for Yu Zhao was not easy. After all, he couldn’t simply create a redundant position for him. He didn’t want to waste Yu Zhao’s talent.

Hearing Qu Jing say, “Currently there’s no suitable arrangement,” Yu Zhao automatically understood it as a polite phrase. He politely smiled and said, “Thank you. But honestly, it’s not necessary. I’m doing okay at Yu group.”
