In front of the opulent European style international school’s main gate, there were all sorts of top-class luxury cars parked, as if it was a luxury car show, but in fact, it was just a group of parents sending their children to school.
“President Chu, why did you send the child to this international high school?” The driver looked at the cars jammed in front and estimated it would take a while before they could pass through, so he curiously asked the ‘member of the army bringing the child to school that just appeared’ in the backseat.1I’m not sure what the ‘just appeared’ is supposed to mean. 新晋: 😅. 于是好奇的问了后座新晋的带娃上学大军中的一员。于是好奇的问了: As such, he curiously asked, 后座: backseat, 新晋(xīn jìn): can be understood as “the latest appearance”; and because “晋” has the meaning of ” promoting upwards” , “新晋” also contains the meaning of “just appeared, with great potential for development”. – From Baidu.
This international high school is notorious for its hellish closed education, but it is also the cradle for the cultivating elite heirs from all walks of life, and his president also came from here. It was just that he didn’t expect him to put a child brought back from outside into this expensive international high school, as if he wants to cultivate him with his heart.
Chu Yi Qiao looked at the traffic in front of the school: “This place can make him grow up quickly.”
Fully closed international school, top quality education, so what if they are all a group of rich or noble children, shouldering the heavy responsibility of inheritance, most will not slack off. This is a mini society, the competition of background, the competition of academic performance, all kinds of competition, as if it is a game, only those who persist to the end are the winners.
Background he could give, but the ability was up to Luo Qing Ye himself, he wanted to see where Luo Qing Ye’s limits were.
Hopefully, he will be a trump card.
“But a lot of the kids here are……” The driver wanted to say something, thinking of Luo Qing Ye this morning, his small body wearing the school uniform of the international high school, like a little girl: “I feel like this child will be bullied.”
“Bullied?” Chu Yi Qiao rubbed the black crystal stone in his hand, this is what Luo Qing Ye stuffed him with before he left, saying that it was a lucky stone that he brought with him at a very young age. The black crystal stone is not round, only the size of a coin, the surface seems to have been repeatedly stroked until smooth: “His character is not one that will allow himself to be bullied, I believe that he will soon adapt, the strong will swallow the weak, the survival of the fittest, he is very smart.”
Just like this piece of black crystal stone that has been stroked smooth, even if the rough surface has been polished smooth by time, the essence is still a hard stone.
It is also like the word “Ethan” that can be seen faintly on this black crystal.
Meaning strong, firm.
“Then where are we going now, President Chu? Back to the group?”
“To He She’s place.” Chu Yi Qiao gripped the black crystal stone into his palm, it was time for him to check his physical condition.
.
“Yi Qiao has been seeing you for several years, as his grandfather I don’t even have the right to know the treatment process?”
He She looked at the uninvited guest in front of him, only to see that the old man, who was already in his seventies, dressed in a black Tang suit, with his cane resting between his legs and his hands covering the top of the cane. His back was straight, his hair was grey, and his face had traces of age, but his eyes were shrewd and godly, his voice was thick and powerful, and his body carried a sense of majesty that could not be disobeyed.
He naturally knows who this is, who else could have such an aura besides Chu Yi Qiao’s grandfather. When he was studying, he saw this old man once, taking Chu Yi Qiao away in front of everyone, that was the first time he saw powerlessness and unwillingness on Chu Yi Qiao’s face.
Although Chu Yi Qiao never said anything about his family, from then on, he more or less knew that Chu Yi Qiao didn’t get along well with his own family.
“I’m sorry, this is my professional ethics as a doctor, without the patient’s consent, you have no right to ask.”
The old man didn’t reveal a displeased look, instead he looked at He She with an appreciative face: “You’re the child who has always been by Yi Qiao’s side, for more than 10 years now, it’s always been you protecting him, you like my family’s Yi Qiao a lot, don’t you?”
He She’s face was calm. He naturally couldn’t let Chu Yi Qiao have any weaknesses: “We are good friends.”
“But you are an Alpha, according to the rules of Alphas, can the existence of an Omega be pure friendship? Alpha’s possessiveness and protectiveness are never simple and pure.” The old man laughed out loud, amiable and kind old man chatting with his junior: “You knew that Yi Qiao couldn’t smell it, but you lied to him that you were a Beta. He wouldn’t feel uncomfortable being close to you, so he was deceived by your lies and really thought you were a Beta. He treats you sincerely, you’re scheming with all your heart and soul, and if Yi Qiao knows about it, how sad he would be.”
He She’s eyes fell on the photo frame that was put down on the desktop, his eyes slightly narrowed and he faintly retracted his gaze: “Elder Chu, I never had any purpose in accompanying Yi Qiao, I just hope that he won’t hide everything in his heart, and that he’ll have someone to accompany him and someone to talk to.”
“As a doctor, you should know that the compatibility of AO pheromones depends on the degree of matching and rejection. If Yi Qiao does not reject you, it means that your compatibility is very high. Just like this, you don’t want to be with my family’s Yi Qiao?”
“I don’t want to.” He She looked at the old man with certainty: “I just want him to live well.”
The old man did not expect that this doctor friend was even an infatuated person: “What if I said that as long as you marry Yi Qiao, I can give you 60% of the shares belonging to the Chu Group? These shares are something even Yi Qiao’s father very much wants.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a clear voice came in. He She raised his eyes and looked up, and when he saw who it was, warmth filled his calm eyes.
“Grandpa, I’m afraid you can’t make a decision about these shares, right?” Chu Yi Qiao stood outside the door, his suit jacket hanging on his arm, he looked at the old man with a smile on his face: “If there’s anything, say it to me, why do you need to find my friend?”
Hidden beneath the smile is an almost cold hostility, as well as an unyielding aura.
The old man was not surprised when he saw that it was Chu Yi Qiao. He looked relaxed as if it was a grandparent-grandson gathering: “You came at the right time. It seems that you are very protective of your friends.”
Chu Yi Qiao walked to He She’s side, put his hand on his shoulder, leaned slightly and approached He She’s ear: “You go out first, I’ll handle this.”
The moment his shoulder was touched, He She was slightly startled, but soon returned to normal. He looked sideways at Chu Yi Qiao, his eyes full of worry.
“I’m fine.” Chu Yi Qiao said and gently patted He She’s shoulder.
He She stood up and left the consulting room. Before going out, he turned around and looked at Chu Yi Qiao.
Just in time for their eyes to meet, he found Chu Yi Qiao smiling softly and looking completely carefree, but he knew how tired Chu Yi Qiao was. At this moment, he felt unwilling to accept it. Why was his compatibility with Chu Yi Qiao only 80%? Why couldn’t he save Chu Yi Qiao.
The door slowly closed.
Chu Yi Qiao sat on He She’s chair, clasping his hands on the table. He looked at the old man with indifferent eyes: “If you have something to do, just come at me. Why do you want to get close to the people around me? Or do you think If the people around me can help you after being tempted by you with a few words? Then you really underestimate me.”
“How could grandpa hurt the people around you, I have always hoped that you could come back from the beginning.” The old man’s gaze was like a torch transmitting a few sharp points: “You can carry forward your mother’s family’s business, why are you not willing to return to grandpa, grandpa’s things will not be left to your father, I will only leave it to you. I know that you have hatred in your heart, hate that your father did things without any bottom line or sense of propriety that year.”
Hearing this, Chu Yi Qiao laughed out loud, as if he heard some joke: “The person I hate is not only Jiang Mian Huai, but also you.”
The old man’s expression froze, and his hands on the cane suddenly tightened.
“My mother asked me to look for you. She thought you would save me. But grandpa, you don’t plan to save me, do you? You think I am an Omega with a genetic defect and a waste of space that is of no use to the family. Weren’t you the one who left me in the hospital? Did you let me show up on the day of my mother’s funeral? No, you didn’t even let me send my mother on her last journey.” Chu Yi Qiao spoke in a calm tone, his amber pupils reflecting the old man’s appearance: “The people of the Jiang family, I really hate them.”
The old man probably thought of something and his breathing was a little rapid, but it soon calmed down. He held the top of the cane tightly:
“But if your mother’s family hadn’t needed our Chu family’s help back then, this matter wouldn’t have been possible. Since the Chu family has requests, our Jiang family will respond. That contract locked in the Swiss bank is still valid today, with three more years of validity.”
“Do I need it?” Chu Yi Qiao laughed out softly: “From the moment my mother died, I don’t need anything, money is nothing to me, it’s not as good as Jiang Mian Huai dying once. If you want me to go back, ok, cut Jiang Mian Huai with a thousand cuts2千刀万剐: death by a thousand cuts, also known as Lingchi, is an old form of torture and execution and was practised until the early 1900s. Small pieces of flesh are cut off slowly until the person dies. For more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingchi[/mfn] and deliver him in front of me, then I will go back.”
The eyes of the old man and Chu Yi Qiao collided. Under the cold glasses, there was a smile on his lips, but his eyes were filled with hatred that could no longer be concealed. It was like a blazing fire, so violent that it was shocking.
This child is no longer a doll that can be manipulated casually, and has long since grown to be unapproachable, despite being an Omega, he is covered in thorns.
Chu Yi Qiao played with the black crystal stone in his hand: “Jiang Mian Huai came to me countless times and sent countless Alphas to me. He knew clearly that I couldn’t accept Alpha pheromones, but he did it again and again, just for the sake of making me die, so that he can get my mother’s things in a logical manner. But as you know, grandpa, the control over what Jiang Mian Huai wants, including the contract you mentioned, does not lie with you, but with me.”
“Back then, in my mother’s will, if something happens, all of her property will be inherited by me. This is her pre-marital property. After the will is made, it naturally has nothing to do with Jiang Mian Huai. And in the contract between the Jiang family and the Chu family, it was written that as long as my mother marries Jiang Mian Huai, it is equivalent to using my Chu family’s reputation to guarantee that the 1.5 billion borrowed will be repaid within 2 years. But what Jiang Mian Huai did after that, he himself broke the contract, he was not good to my mother, tore down the disguise and forced my mother, and now he wants to take back this 60% of the shares with conditions attached? Grandpa, the Jiang family gifted 60% of their shares to me, you brought this on yourselves.”
Chu Yi Qiao watched as the old man’s expression began to change again as he continued: “I know that Jiang Mian Huai wants me to die so that he can get the property. And the contract also says that only if I get married will I be able to get 60% of the Jiang family’s shares. I also understand that Jiang Mian Huai is the Adou2刘禅 (liú shàn) (207-271), the Xiaohuai Emperor of the Shu Han Dynasty, also known as the Hou Zhu, was given the courtesy name Gongsi and nicknamed Adou/Edou. The last emperor of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period (reigned from 223 to 263), the son of Han Zhaolie Emperor Liu Bei , and his mother was Empress Zhaolie from the Gan clan.3 you can’t afford, you want me to go back to the Chu family, but you are afraid that I will hurt that Adou son of yours. It’s me who made you worry, don’t worry, I already have a candidate for this, I’ll definitely be taking these shares.”
“He She?” The old man did not care very much about the 60% of the shares, but he was more concerned that Chu Yi Qiao had already started looking for a marriage partner. He thought that Chu Yi Qiao would rather die than marry. After all, there was the example of his mother’s tragic death in front of him, coupled with suffering from the pheromone disorder syndrome which is almost a terminal illness.
“Naturally not.” Chu Yi Qiao lowered his eyes and looked at the black crystal stone in his hand, rubbing his fingertips as if he was feeling something, hooking his lips and smiling: “Speaking of which, he’s still the Alpha that your precious son gave to me, and I’m very satisfied with him.”
The old man’s eyes were gloomy for a moment. That boy actually gave Chu Yi Qiao an Alpha?
“It’s just that this Alpha is still young, he has to be raised for another 2 or 3 years.” Chu Yi Qiao raised his eyes, leaning on the back of the chair, with a strategising expression, elegant and indifferent: “3 years is also enough time to take down the Jiang family, I just don’t know if grandpa can still see it.”
“Yi Qiao, so your illness has been cured?” The old man looked a little surprised.
Chu Yi Qiao said: “The Alpha your son sent happens to be my medicine, and I truly appreciate it.”
He thought, maybe it was all meant to be.
Destined that he will not lose completely.
He held the black crystal stone tightly in his palm.
Author has something to say:
Little Alpha: Ge Ge praised me, turns out I’m so amazing in his heart, but I really never studied before, I’m even a non-mainstream4非主流 (fēi zhǔ liú): non-mainstream is a cultural phenomenon, it basically means showing off individuality, alternativeness and non-popularity.
