Alpha Predator

After returning home that day, Shen Dai took the initiative to pull Qu Moyu into his room for the first time, and tore off the sticker on the gland, releasing the tranquil epiphyllum pheromone.
He also tried his best to smell the ebony wood pheromone of Qu Moyu.

Qu Moyu was very pleased with Shen Dai’s initiative.
He took off his suit jacket, picked up Shen Dai and threw him on the bed.

The pheromones of the two people blended in the air, and gradually became indistinguishable from each other.
The ebony fragrance was cold and the epiphyllum fragrance was sweet.
The combination produced an intoxicating smell.
The lust was surging, and every nerve was endlessly numbing…

Shen Dai went to the hospital to visit his grandmother every day after work.
The hospital is not far from the company and the traffic is not bad.
Qu Moyu hired the best doctor from a public hospital to perform the operation in a private hospital with better environment and nursing care.
He was very thoughtful, so how could Shen Dai not be moved?

His grandmother woke up the next day, but he still couldn’t visit her.
So Shen Dai watched her through the glass window for a while.

It was not until the third day that the doctor informed him that his grandmother could be transferred to the general ward.
He took an afternoon off, brought the daily necessities and nutritional products that he had prepared earlier, and went to the hospital.

His grandmother was placed in a private ward, and the hospital itself had nursing care, but it was not exclusive.
The nursing workers hired by Shen Dai were already waiting in the hospital.
When he couldn’t wait to knock on the door of the ward, he saw not only the grandmother who had woken up was in the room but Shen Qin was there too, standing beside the bed.

When the two of them saw him, their expressions were a little stiff.
Shen Dai was also stunned.
He didn’t speak, his eyes were heavy, and his face looked very bad.

Shen Qin lowered his head and whispered uncomfortably, “I’ve been watching over your grandma.
But I just didn’t dare to let you know.”

His grandmother looked embarrassed, obviously she was feeling conflicted.

Shen Dai didn’t want the patient who just finished the operation to have too many emotional fluctuations.
Although he was full of resentment towards Shen Qin, he didn’t reprimand or drive him away.
He walked over and held his grandmother’s thin shoulder: “Grandma, how are you feeling now?”

His grandmother smiled: “I feel much better.
The wound doesn’t hurt as much.
In fact, when I was in the ICU, you came to see me a lot.
I’m afraid it would delay your work.”

“What’s there to delay?” Shen Dai comforted her gently, “The operation was successful, and the tumour was basically removed.
As long as you cooperate with the subsequent treatment, you will be completely better.”

‘To be completely better’ is naturally a beautiful ideal, but the unexpected success of this operation gave them great confidence and made them dare to have more hope.

Shen Qin got up knowingly: “I’m going to go buy something.”

After Shen Qin left, his grandmother and Shen Dai looked at each other.

After a long while, Shen Dai sighed: “He also called me before.
But I didn’t want to see him.
So he went to my workplace to wait for me, and then followed me to this hospital.”　

“He’s been like this since he was a child.
As long as it’s what he wants to do, he doesn’t care about what others think.”

“Then… what do you think about this?”

His grandmother lowered her eyes sadly and was silent for a long time.

Shen Dai took his grandmother’s hand.
In his childhood memories, his grandmother’s hands were very beautiful.
The fingers were long and delicate, white and tender.
These hands could draw, cook, play the piano, illustrate, and do many beautiful and romantic things.
She was very talented.
Now, these hands are scrawny and the purple-brown blood vessels are prominent.
The skin has lost its elasticity and it feels like damp paper.
She could have been a carefree young lady but she chose to be a mother.

The moment he stepped into the ward, he knew that his grandmother had softened his heart.
It seemed that she had forgiven him.
As a mother, she could never give up on her child.

His grandmother raised her face with tears in her eyes: “I looked at him today and found that he is also already old and has not had a good life these years… I always thought of him as a child.”

Shen Dai’s eyes were also red: “Grandma, if you really want to give him a chance to make up for it, I’ll let him take care of you.
He should also…know that he was wrong.” He resisted ten thousand times in his heart to say this.
But he also knows that this is what his grandmother wants to hear and wishes for at the moment.

His grandmother stroked Shen Dai’s face and choked: “You haven’t done anything wrong.
But you’re always the one who suffers.”

Shen Dai forced a smile: “I don’t think I have any hardships.
You and grandpa were so good to me.
I have had no worries about food and clothing since I was a child.
I have a good education and a good job.
And now, I have the ability to take care of you.
I am very satisfied.”

His grandmother gently wrapped her hands around Shen Dai’s head: “Ah Dai, grandma didn’t feel bitter when I raised you, really.”

Shen Dai closed his eyes and silently sniffed the smell of hydrogen peroxide mixed with his grandmother’s scent.
It didn’t smell good, but it was warm and reassuring.

Shen Dai’s grandmother gets tired easily now.
After chatting for a while, she fell asleep.
Shen Dai walked out the door and unexpectedly saw Shen Qin sitting on the chair in the corridor.

The eyes of the father and son met in the air.
The indifferent but calm is the son.
The cautious and guilty is the father.

Shen Dai stood against the wall and said calmly, “Grandma definitely wants her son to take care of her, so you can take care of her.
The nursing worker will be working until grandma is discharged from the hospital.
After she is discharged, you can do it alone at home.”

Shen Qin nodded quickly: “Okay.”

“Do you have a job now? Do you have any income?”

“…I only have a little savings.”

“I will pay you the salary according to the housekeeper’s salary.
And I will also pay for the daily expenses.
You should allocate it reasonably.
You will need to keep an account.
You can save it if you can, but you can’t save it if they’re for grandma’s food and clothing.” He knew Shen Qin.
In addition to finding an alpha to rely on, he has no self-reliance skills.
Originally, Shen Qin could have a good education and get a good career, but all his time and energy were wasted on one failed relationship after another.
Without money, it is difficult to accept ordinary life.

“Don’t worry.” Shen Qin hesitated, “Ah Dai, can I ask you some questions?”　

“Go ahead.”

“Your grandma said that you have mortgaged a house and this hospital is very expensive.”

Shen Dai became alert.
He wondered if his grandmother had told him how he got the money.
He thought ironically that he was still slandering Shen Qin for relying on alpha.
If he didn’t have Qu Moyu, he would be extremely embarrassed as well.

“She said you got the bonus, but…” Shen Qin’s hesitation revealed his doubts.
After all, to pay off the debt, to still be able to buy a house and to get into a private hospital, a huge sum of money is needed.

“But what?” Shen Dai didn’t want to answer.

“Actually, on the day of the operation, I left the hospital very late.
I wanted to wait until you left to see your grandma.
Then at the hospital gate, I saw you and an alpha boarded a car together.”

Shen Dai’s eyes narrowed.
He suddenly became icy cold.

“Ah Dai, don’t be angry.
I didn’t mean to stalk you.
I was just surprised.
That alpha looks very…”

“I hope you don’t ask me about my privacy.” Shen Dai said mercilessly, “From the moment you abandoned this family, there is no relationship between the two of us.
If you take good care of grandma in the future, we will be at peace with each other and that’s that.”

Shen Qin’s shoulders shrank back, looking very aggrieved: “I see.
No matter what, your dad just wants you to be happy and won’t end up like me.”

“I won’t be like you.” Shen Dai turned around and went back to the ward.

Across the door, Shen Dai seemed to still be able to feel Shen Qin’s exploratory gaze.
He closed his eyes and felt a headache.

When he said “I won’t be like you”, Qu Moyu’s face appeared in front of him inexplicably.
Because no matter how determined his tone was, his heart was erratic.
Back then, when You Xinghai pursued Shen Qin, did Shen Qin also think that it was his destined alpha, that the two of them would be together forever? But when a person has such expectations for love, how can they believe that they will have a bad ending?

It was Friday the next day.
After work, Cheng Zimei brought some supplements with her to see Shen Dai’s grandmother.

On the way, Shen Dai told her about Shen Qin’s return, and she was also very resentful.
After all, she knew about the embarrassment and pain that Shen Dai had to go through back then.
When Shen Dai was doing an internship, writing a dissertation, and competing for the talent plan of Baoyan and Xingzhou, such a big incident happened to his family.
This kind of blow would probably make most people slumped, but Shen Dai gritted his teeth and stood up while fighting.
He still accomplished all his goals.
She remembered that at that time, Shen Dai lost more than ten kilograms, only slept for four or five hours a day, and once fainted because of anaemia.
In those years, Shen Dai was oppressed and difficult.

Shen Dai finally stood up on his own.
When Shen Qin came back at this time, he just couldn’t get along and wanted to rely on his son again.

Cheng Zimei said angrily: “If he is really guilty, he should disappear completely and not increase your burden.”

“I expected that one day he would come back, when he had no one to rely on.” Shen Dai sighed, “No way.
Anyway, I still have legal support obligations.”

“Ah Dai, you are really miserable.” Cheng Zimei looked at Shen Dai distressedly and couldn’t help stroking his hair, “You should find a capable alpha to marry, so that someone can help you.
It must be easier than being alone.”

“It’s easy for you to say.”

“What I’m saying is very practical.
For us ordinary people, isn’t marriage just about sharing costs and supporting each other? If you happen to find someone rich, how many troubles can you solve?” Cheng Zimei blinked, “For example, Zhou Lan.
I have inquired about him.
His parents have bought him a house.
He plans to settle down in the capital.
His conditions are really good.
He is young, smart, and has a bright future.”

“It’s impossible for me and him.” Shen Dai said seriously, “Really.”

Cheng Zimei sighed and said mysteriously, “Then, what about the crown prince?”

Shen Dai trembled in his heart and said calmly, “It’s also impossible.”

“Oh, I really want him to be with you.
What is impossible? Because you are a scientific researcher, your ideal is to make the impossible possible.
What kind of scientific research can we do without this energy?!”

“Where are you going with this?”

“It’s going to happen soon!” Cheng Zimei waved her fist at him, “It’s up to the person.
Besides, I don’t think the crown prince treats you normally.
The two of you have been involved again and again.
It’s fate.
Such a good opportunity, why don’t you try it out?”

“It can get me fired.” Shen Dai said coldly.

Cheng Zimei couldn’t hold back and laughed loudly.
She couldn’t stop laughing: “Crown prince is really awesome.
I remember there was an omega who was chasing him before.
He was from an affiliated family.
He had a good family background and he was so pretty.
Ah.
However, this lady has no experience in chasing alphas at first glance.
How could she rush up towards a stupefied alpha when dealing with an S-class alpha like the crown prince?”

Shen Dai teased her and said, “You speak as if you understand it well.”

Cheng Zimei shrugged: “This sister of yours had started falling in love at the age of fourteen.
What’s the difficulty in grasping a man?”

Shen Dai’s heart moved.
His eyes rolled and he asked in a nonchalant tone, “Then tell me, how are you supposed to get an S-class alpha like the crown prince?”

***The author has something to say:

I won’t be able to ‘drive’ in the near future, because emm… RS scared me last time, and there are many people carrying DY, which is really unsafe.
I hope everyone will not spread it to the public in the future.
Let’s wait for winter vacation.
When the heat drops a little.
If not, I can only make it up after the end.​​​​

*Translator’s Note: Allow me to translate what the author means in her note above.
She said she got scared to write a smut scene because many people spread it online and it became a popular search item so she will wait until the heat cools down before writing another smut scene. 

Guys, this is necessary because of strict rules in China.
If caught, she can be convicted to (1) homosexuality and (2) pornography which were both banned in China.
So yeah.
But spoiler alert the next smut scene will be in Chapter 46.
Teehee.

*P/S my rant: 

Grandma: (to Shen Dai) You haven’t done anything wrong.
But you’re always the one who suffers.

Me: Tell me about it!! T.T
