Mad Dog

Zou Yuqing left Shuangming Pharmaceutical amidst the crowd's whispers. He pulled out his phone and searched. It would take two bus transfers to get home, at least an hour. Pursing his lips, he walked to the bus stop, surrounded by onlookers and stares.

Maybe it was because everyone was curious about him, an Alpha who was sick and extremely weak, or maybe it was because the way he stumbled was too funny.

After getting on the second car, a boy who looked like a college student covered his nose and patted him. "Um, your pheromones are too strong. Can you put on a suppression patch?"

"I put it on..." Zou Yuqing reached out and touched his neck, wanting to say that he had always had it on, but suddenly realized that the gland suppression patch on his gland was long gone. So it was because of the miserable state of his glands that passersby kept looking back at him. "Sorry, it might have fallen off."

Embarrassment and awkwardness surged into Zou Yuqing's heart. He did not move his hand away, but kept covering his glands and could not raise his head.

"I have one here. If you don't mind, use it. Your pheromones are too strong. It's a good thing it's a holiday and there aren't many people on the bus at this time. If anything goes wrong, you'll be arrested." The boy took out the suppression patch from his canvas bag. "Is it vodka? Your pheromone level must be quite high. Fortunately, I'm not very sensitive to pheromones, otherwise I would be doomed."

Zou Yuqing thanked him, took the suppression patch, and put it on. He then looked up at the boy. He was a sunny and lively boy with fluffy curly hair. He looked like an Omega, and because of the suppression patch, he was not affected by him.

But vodka... Zou Yuqing gritted his teeth. The vodka was not his pheromone at all, but Wei Mingjue's. That night, this mad dog had madly injected pheromones into his glands, making him succumb to pain. It seemed that this strong pheromone was still lingering around him.

"Thank you. Give me your Alipay QR code and I'll transfer the money for the suppression sticker to you." He didn't answer the boy's question, but took out his mobile phone and opened Alipay.

The boy looked like he had heard something funny, his already round eyes widened even wider. "It's just a suppression sticker, no need to transfer money to me. Meeting is fate. Okay, I'm getting off now. Bye."

After the car stopped, the boy waved at him and jumped out. He was full of energy and seemed to be from a completely different world from him. Zou Yuqing looked out the window, which reflected his expressionless face. His eyes, which should have been bright, were dim.

His phone suddenly vibrated. He picked up the phone and saw a notification from the bank that 50,000 yuan had been deposited into his account.

Zou Yuqing turned off the screen, feeling completely unmoved. He felt like a prostitute, raising the price based on the investor's needs, and after all the pain, he received the corresponding reward. But he still couldn't accept it, and his hands trembled in a corner where no one could see him.

After getting off the car, Zou Yuqing quickened his pace and walked into the residential complex, only to find several aunties gathered downstairs of his building. Upon seeing him, one of the aunties said anxiously, "Xiao Zou, your mother seems to be having a seizure. She hit someone on the head and made it bleed!"

Before he could swallow the pain, another accident happened. He immediately ran upstairs and saw his mother sitting astride a man, crying and repeatedly hitting his chest with her weak fists. Next to him was a broken, low-quality photo frame with a photo that had been torn and then pasted together. There was blood on the corner of the frame.

"Yu Shen, why did you come to see me so late? You heartless man, I followed you right after graduation, how could you treat me like this!" Xu Jie cried very sadly, but the next second she became angry again and started slapping the man, "If only I had never met you..."

"Mom! He is not Zou Yushen, stop hitting him!" Zou Yuqing rushed forward to stop his mother.

But now the Omega mother, whose heart was filled with hatred, was extremely strong and slapped her son in the face. Then she reacted, tears welled up in her hollow eyes, her lips trembled as she murmured, "I'm sorry, Qingqing, Mom didn't mean it," and then she fell backwards exhausted.

"I'm sorry, my mom didn't mean it, but why... you." He hadn't had time to look at who was beaten, and he didn't know why this man appeared in his house. Now when he looked up, he saw the familiar face who knocked him unconscious in the club that night.

Zou Yuqing couldn't forget this face either. It was so cold and indifferent. Although it looked very heroic, it seemed devoid of emotion. And now, there was a bloodstain on that fair face, the wound caused by her mother hitting it with the photo frame.

Xia Fan got up from the ground and calmly patted the dust off his clothes. Then he looked at Zou Yuqing indifferently, "Boss Wei asked me to bring you food. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

Only then did Zou Yuqing notice that there was a plate of exquisite roast meat rice on the table in the living room, but it had already gone cold before he had even touched a single bite.

"Are you pretending to be a good person? Don't come here again. I don't want to have anything to do with the Wei family anymore. I'll also tell President Wei that if you have any problems, go find Zou Yuyang." Zou Yuqing sneered, then carried his mother back to the room, "Why are you still standing here?" After coming out, he saw Xia Fan still there, and Zou Yuqing frowned and looked over.

Xia Fan was stunned for a moment, then he gritted his teeth, the emotion in his eyes was unpredictable. In the end, he turned around and walked out without saying a word.

So tired. Zou Yuqing slumped down on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling. So much had happened recently, and he couldn't process it all at once. He glanced at the old clock. It was already past four in the afternoon. He had been at Shuangming for most of the day and had been sorting goods at the supermarket.

Working… Zou Yuqing stood up abruptly and walked towards the supermarket. He had caused the store manager a lot of trouble, and he was a little embarrassed about asking for leave so often recently. The slime from the locust trees on the road was still unpleasant, but no matter how uncomfortable it was, he had no choice but to take this road, just like his life.

"Xiao Zou? Are you feeling better? Why don't you stay home and rest more?" The store manager was a little surprised when he saw Zou Yuqing. "Don't worry about us here. Take care of yourself first!"

"It's okay, Aunt Zhang. I'll finish sorting the goods." Zou Yuqing smiled and began to arrange the goods. It must be said that after the treatment, his body recovered much faster, which allowed him to continue working.

"Xiao Zou, was that your friend this morning? He's very handsome, is he dating?" The store manager walked over to him while sorting the merchandise. "He looks rich too. Is he a friend you met in college?"

"No, I just met him once, it's nothing." Zou Yuqing shook his head.

He didn't want to have anything to do with a person like that, but their relationship was destined to be special from the beginning.
