- Chapter 33 - The Hongmen Banquet Must Have a Cannon Fodder Fiance
“Qi Qing! You… enough.” Shu Qian cursed with her mouth, but her hands wrapped around the back of Qi Qing’s head, letting her press against her chest. The gown she had just changed into had already been ripped by the reckless Alpha. Her skin, exposed to the cool air, trembled slightly before being encircled by the other person’s warmth.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve held you,” Qi Qing said, sounding aggrieved and muffled. Her mouth was biting at the soft breast that had been toyed with until it blossomed. She knew that this time and place were not suitable for such intimacy, but she really couldn’t control herself. They had been in a cold war for a while and had just reconciled. This was the time for them to be sweet, but they had been too busy in the past few days to do anything more.
It was as if she had been completely marked by Shu Qian. She craved her scent and missed her embrace. Even when they were apart for only ten hours, it was so hard that she desperately needed to get nourishment from the other person.
Shu Qian was speechless because she had the same thought as Qi Qing. Her body, which had been thoroughly trained by the other person, was blooming under her familiar partner’s casual touch, emitting a seductive scent that begged for lovemaking.
Just as they were about to fall into a state of depravity, both of their phones chimed at the same time. Shu Qian’s rationality returned, and she immediately pushed the person on top of her away.
Qi Qing was pushed away in a flustered state. Her face, which was covered by her disheveled hair, was filled with anger. She had just coaxed her Omega to a point where things were about to happen, but they were interrupted by someone who had no sense. She suppressed her anger and picked up her phone to see who it was.
When she opened the message, she saw that it was Fu Zhao asking if she had arrived. Qi Qing then realized that the banquet was about to begin. Despite her reluctance, she tidied up her clothes and said to Shu Qian, “Let’s go.”
Shu Qian was also looking at her phone. She looked at the line on the screen with a blank expression. “Everything is ready. You’ll leave the day after tomorrow. The ticket has been booked. All you need to do is bring your ID to the airport. Get ready to welcome a new life, Xiao Shu.” She nonchalantly turned it off, tidied up her clothes, and turned her head, only to see Qi Qing staring at her. The look in her eyes clearly conveyed that she was done for tonight.
“…Let’s go. To your and your fiance’s engagement banquet,” she said, opening the car door and getting out before Qi Qing could react. She waited for the other person to walk toward her unhappily. She just grabbed her hand and walked to their destination.
“Do you think your fiance, who is an Alpha in name only, will really come?” Wells held a glass of red wine, observing Fu Zhao with interest. As an Alpha, he particularly liked such a noble Omega. He had fair, delicate skin. It was a pity that the other person had only made a deal with him, asking him to take an Omega away tonight. He and Fu Zhao had met abroad. Wells was from a prominent local family. When they attended the same gathering, he had fallen for this Omega at first sight.
However, Fu Zhao said from the beginning that he already had a fiancee, an Alpha. They could only maintain a relationship that helped them get through their heat cycle. There was no marking allowed.
“She will definitely come,” Fu Zhao said. His handsome face was filled with a dark gloom. “This is a condition between her and my family. If she comes this time and still isn’t interested, she’ll agree to end the engagement.”
“The other person isn’t interested in you?” Wells didn’t expect this. Or rather, how could anyone not like such a noble and good-looking Omega?
Fu Zhao’s anger grew even more when he heard this. He gritted his teeth and said, “It’s all because of that shameless Omega who seduced her. So, after I give you a signal, you help me lure her away.”
Wells frowned, wanting to say something. He suddenly noticed that the person in front of him had a change in attitude. He walked happily toward the door. He turned his head and saw a female Alpha and an Omega walk in. He linked this to Fu Zhao’s expression and instantly understood that this was the Alpha he was talking about, the one who was seduced by the shameless Omega.
Even Wells, who was also an Alpha, had to praise the female Alpha’s appearance. And he heard Fu Zhao say that she was a high-level Alpha. This aroused Wells’s competitive spirit, and he followed them.
When Qi Qing and Shu Qian walked in, they immediately attracted many eyes. Everyone present knew Qi Qing and the things between her and Fu Zhao. When they saw that she had actually brought an Omega, they immediately understood that the two families’ engagement was likely coming to an end.
“Sister Qi, you’re here,” Fu Zhao said. He had specially gone to a high-end salon to get his hair done and was wearing an expensive white suit that perfectly complemented his status and body, all to attract the Alpha in front of him. He was happy to see Qi Qing, but he didn’t expect that she would bring someone to an event like this, knowing what it was. His voice was a little low, and he gave a wronged look at Shu Qian before asking Qi Qing, “Who is this? I’ve never seen her before.”
Shu Qian perfectly maintained her identity as a silent doll. She just kept a quiet smile on her face. After all, he’s not asking her. Putting aside some complicated thoughts and acting as a bystander, it was quite interesting to see the once-popular Omega from their school, who was now acting so fragile in front of Qi Qing.
“She’s my secretary,” Qi Qing said. She was only attending because she had made a deal with her parents. As long as she came and still had no interest, they would agree to end the engagement. She didn’t even consider how it would make this fiance in name only lose face by bringing someone else. In fact, she had never agreed to this absurd marriage. Everyone else was just head-over-heels for it from beginning to end.
But when she turned around and saw Shu Qian’s expression of someone watching a play, she wasn’t happy anymore. Although it was only in name, why was Shu Qian, her real partner, not showing any negative emotions?
Fu Zhao immediately understood that this was his love rival. He then released a little bit of his pheromones, wanting to suppress Shu Qian. But before the scent could spread, Qi Qing’s face had already turned cold. She said softly, “Fu Zhao, have you forgotten what kind of event this is?” There were Alphas all around. Fu Zhao was a high-level Omega. His pheromones could easily excite Alphas.
Of course, Fu Zhao knew that. That was why he was deliberately trying to show off in front of Qi Qing. Although he liked Qi Qing, he was also very afraid of her. He reluctantly retracted his pheromones. He deliberately walked over to the other side, wanting to hold Qi Qing’s hand. But as soon as he reached out his finger, Qi Qing took a step forward, avoiding him.
Wells watched their interaction and completely understood that Qi Qing really had no feelings for Fu Zhao. He couldn’t understand why an Alpha wouldn’t like a delicate and good-looking Omega. Even if they didn’t bond, they could at least have fun. This made him interested in the Omega Qi Qing had brought. He turned to look at Shu Qian. Suddenly, his expression was a little subtle. Just as he was about to get closer to confirm, someone blocked him.
“Do you know that an Alpha getting close on a whim is an act of provocation?” Qi Qing was completely pissed off now. Her Alpha was being coveted, and Shu Qian wasn’t showing any reaction and was even watching the show. But now, this random Alpha, who came out of nowhere, was getting close.
The blocked Wells paused. He didn’t change his expression and introduced himself. “I’m Fu Zhao’s friend, Wells Charleton.” After saying that, he paused, but when he saw that the other person didn’t react, he continued, “I just thought your companion looked familiar. It seems I was mistaken.”
Qi Qing and Shu Qian looked at each other. When Shu Qian shook her head, Qi Qing said, “Since you were mistaken, please take a step back. Maintain the social distance between an Alpha and an Alpha.”
Wells wisely took a step back. The jealousy on the side made Fu Zhao feel like he was going crazy.
“Shu Qian?” Shu Hangjun, who was standing in a corner, cried out in surprise when she saw the person who had just walked in, drawing the attention of the Alpha next to her. “How is she with Qi Qing? No wonder my family couldn’t find her.”
“Isn’t Shu Qian your cousin who ran away from her arranged marriage?” The man next to her asked with interest. “And she came with Qi Qing. Could it be that the Omega Fu Zhao was talking about is your cousin?” He glanced at Shu Hangjun. “It looks like your cousin has a lot of tricks up her sleeve.”
As soon as she recognized Shu Qian walking in with Qi Qing, Shu Hangjun was already green with envy. But she still remembered that she had come with a male companion. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have even received an invitation to this banquet. Before she came, her companion had also told her to keep a low profile. She had wanted to come and network, but who would have thought she would see her runaway cousin here?
Shu Hangjun had always looked down on her. What right did Shu Qian, who had no status in the family, have to stand in the center of the crowd? Giving her a chance to marry for the family was already a high honor. Thinking about this, she controlled her expression and told the man next to her that she was going to the restroom. She then walked away quickly.
