Love is love
He thought Wei Mingjue would call him that when they met the next day, but no, Wei Mingjue didn't even call him that, and didn't even mention his name before speaking. He looked a little awkward and shy.
Yes, shy. Zou Yuqing saw Wei Mingjue's red ears from the corner of his eye and seemed to be less angry.
It's just that Wei Mingjue became very strange. After Shuangming returned to normal, the factory quickly recruited new employees and all problems were basically resolved. Logically, this Alpha should be fine, but he couldn't see Wei Mingjue in the company.
You know, in the past, Wei Mingjue would run to their department to make his presence felt whenever he had time, but recently, when they occasionally met downstairs of the company, Wei Mingjue would just smile awkwardly, then turn around and call someone, looking a little anxious, and look back at him from time to time, as if afraid that he would discover something, just like now.
"Have you been busy lately?" Zou Yuqing couldn't help himself. He looked expressionlessly at Wei Mingjue, who was once again anxious. He did this on purpose. Wei Mingjue hadn't been in the department for a while, and he wasn't used to it. So he deliberately ran downstairs during his breaks to see if he could catch him. He actually caught him many times.
Wei Mingjue was startled when he heard the familiar voice, then smiled awkwardly, "Why did you come down? Is your leg okay?"
"I'm fine now. Didn't the doctor tell me to move more? So I came down to take a walk." Zou Yuqing frowned and replied.
"That's right. I have a meeting soon, so I'll go upstairs first. Be careful. If you feel unwell, let Mu Yun come down to pick you up." After saying that, Wei Mingjue turned and walked towards the elevator.
Zou Yuqing heard Wei Mingjue make another phone call and then say, "Come back in later." This made him purse his lips. Who was he talking to? Was he telling him to come back later because he was there? Did this Alpha have a meeting coming up? He didn't know, but he felt a little depressed.
Not in the mood to leave, he simply returned to his workstation, leaned back in his chair and sighed. Just as he was about to close his eyes and rest for a while, he felt the gaze from Mu Yun. Speaking of which, Mu Yun had been acting strangely recently, always looking at him with a strange look.
"What, what's wrong?" Zou Yuqing didn't know what was going on. Was there something going on in the company that he didn't know about? Otherwise, why was everyone acting a little unusual recently?
"It's okay, it's just... I really want to fall in love recently." Mu Yun said with a sigh, looking at Zou Yuqing with envy in his eyes.
Want a relationship? Zou Yuqing smiled. He thought about himself and Wei Mingjue, and felt that perhaps love wasn't really suitable for two strong-willed Alphas. He sometimes hated Wei Mingjue's overblown pride and didn't want to initiate conversation. And Wei Mingjue seemed to be waiting for something, which was why their current relationship was so difficult to define.
But Mu Yun was different. She was a girl and an Omega, so she must be longing for a beautiful love, which was completely different from his feelings. So he looked at Mu Yun and smiled, "You will definitely find the right person."
"The right person... is so hard to find. I also really want to find someone who is kind to me..."
"Don't talk during working hours."
Before Mu Yun finished speaking, Manager Cui interrupted her by pushing up his glasses. Mu Yun responded and then reluctantly turned her gaze to the screen and continued working.
Did Mu Yun mean to mention Wei Mingjue? Zou Yuqing stared at the screen, his mind unfocused on his work. He knew the authority Wei Mingjue held within Shuangming. This Alpha was beloved by the employees because he cared deeply about them, something he had discovered early on. Consequently, many within the company admired and respected Wei Mingjue.
Wei Mingjue was handsome, and his pheromones were top-notch among Alphas. Who wouldn't like him? But this high-quality Alpha liked him... Zou Yuqing thought, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily, but it retracted after a few seconds.
Do you still like him now? He was a little panicked. Wei Mingjue had been acting strangely lately. What if he spoke first? Zou Yuqing pursed his lips tightly as he began to think about this matter, and finally decided to confront Wei Mingjue on Friday.
This was a breakthrough for Zou Yuqing. His relationship with Wei Mingjue was like a hunting trap, with every step like a snare. In the beginning, it was Wei Mingjue who trapped him, and now it was he who wanted to trap Wei Mingjue.

Zou Yuqing made a lot of mental preparations, wondering how he would confess his feelings to Wei Mingjue tomorrow. Should he send flowers? That didn't seem like his style, and simply saying "I like you" seemed too simplistic and hasty.
Just when he was feeling worried, he received a message from Wei Mingjue: [Wait for me at home tomorrow morning. I might pick you up later.]
Later? Zou Yuqing's worries were gone. He replied "Oh" and threw his phone aside, not planning to lose sleep over the confession anymore.
The weather was beautiful the next day, but Zou Yuqing was a little grumpy and looked a bit gloomy. Wei Mingjue didn't pick him up until after ten in the morning. He had planned to go to the company on his own several times, but the Alpha insisted he wait, saying he was on his way.
He didn't know what Wei Mingjue was up to, and he looked out the window the whole way without even looking at Wei Mingjue.
Wei Mingjue naturally noticed it. He nervously turned his head to look at Zou Yuqing, "Are you angry? I'm preparing for something recently, so..."
"I'm not angry. Let's deal with the company's affairs first." Zou Yuqing was still looking out the window and didn't let Wei Mingjue finish speaking.
"It's not a company matter, it's just... you'll know when you go to the company." Wei Mingjue wanted to explain quickly, but he didn't say it out loud. He stepped on the accelerator even harder, as if he wanted to let Zou Yuqing know quickly what he had been preparing for recently.
The accelerating car made Zou Yuqing's eyes widen suddenly. He turned his head and growled, "Wei Mingjue! Are you crazy? Drive slower!"
Seeing Zou Yuqing looking back, Wei Mingjue smiled. He did not slow down and rushed all the way to the company gate amid Zou Yuqing's "scolding".
When Zou Yuqing walked into the company gate with a frown and cursing, the scene before him completely stunned him.
The company lobby was now a sea of roses. Everyone who was supposed to be at work was standing by the sea of roses, smiling at him and Wei Mingjue. The administrative staff stood at the front. He looked around and even Xu Wang was there, smiling at him and nodding with a bared tooth.
What was going on? Zou Yuqing seemed frozen in place. Just as he was about to look at Wei Mingjue, the Alpha pulled him to the center. He then stood in front of him, pulled out a small box, and knelt down.
"You..." Zou Yuqing stared at Wei Mingjue, whose ears were red, and couldn't utter a word.
"Are you scared? Sorry, I've been busy decorating this place recently and didn't want you to find out, so..."
Wei Mingjue took a deep breath. He was so nervous for the first time, his hands trembling slightly. "Yu Qing, we've been through so much. I want to apologize for hurting you with all my actions in the past. But what I want to say most to you today is that I like you, I love you."
"I was attracted to you from the beginning, but I thought it was just a novelty. It wasn't until I saw your tears and the hatred in your eyes that I realized I was naively in love with you. Everything I did was just to make you remember me, but I used the wrong approach. It's dangerous to have you around. When I can't find you, my world feels gloomy. In fact, my life was originally very boring, and it became colorful after meeting you. So I was afraid, I was afraid you would leave... But thankfully, you came back. Yu Qing, I want to stay by your side for the rest of my life, to love and protect you. I don't want to and won't make you shed a single tear again. Are you... willing to give me this chance?"
Zou Yuqing's eyes were red from the morning. He looked at Wei Mingjue, who once looked down at him arrogantly, but now looked up at him. The seriousness and love in his eyes almost overflowed, and his nose was sour.
"Promise him. He started arranging this place a week ago. I've come here secretly many times!" Xu Wang suddenly said with a smile.
As soon as he spoke, more and more people began to speak up for Wei Mingjue.
"I almost couldn't help but say it several times! Qing, President Wei really did his homework and even asked us what we like! This scene was our joint idea. Although you are an Alpha, you must like roses too! So I said I really want to fall in love, woooo!"
It turned out that this sea of roses was the brainchild of his colleagues. Zou Yuqing smiled. He thought that Mu Yun would definitely recommend it, so Wei Mingjue listened to the words of the Omega who had the best relationship with him in the company.
But he really liked it. Roses were so beautiful and symbolized love, how could he not like them?
"You are all speaking for him? Then I must condemn it. This is obviously my company, why am I always asked to "come in later" every time I am about to enter the door with flowers? It's very cold outside!" Fu Ming wailed "dissatisfiedly", making everyone laugh.
So Wei Mingjue had been ordering flowers while out and about these days? And when she met him, she called Fu Ming because he was holding the flowers? The truth was revealed, and Zou Yuqing felt a little embarrassed.
"Yu Qing, don't listen to them, just follow your heart." Wei Mingjue felt his heart was about to jump out, he was too nervous. He didn't know whether Zou Yuqing would accept him, but whether she accepted him or not, he would never hurt his sweetheart again.
Sniffing, Zou Yuqing smiled at Wei Mingjue, "Actually, I've been waiting. You know, I'm also an Alpha, and my personality makes it difficult for me to take the initiative. The moment I was rescued and opened my eyes to see you, I figured it out. Wei Mingjue, let's be together. I like you, too."
So what if they are both Alphas? So what if he hated him to the core at the beginning? Love is love. He can't deceive others, let alone himself.
The moment Zou Yuqing agreed, Shuangming was in an uproar. Cheers and congratulations filled the entire company, and there was a surge of joy. The sentimental Omegas were moved to tears by this love, tears of envy and relief.
After putting the ring on Zou Yuqing's finger, Wei Mingjue stood up and hugged the person he loved most tightly. This usually arrogant Alpha actually hugged his lover and trembled and sobbed in front of everyone, "Thank you, Yuqing, thank you, I love you."
Zou Yuqing's eyes were red as she gently patted Wei Mingjue's back and choked up, "I love you, too."
