The Self-cultivation of Omega Running with the Ball

At that moment, Wen Qiu's mind immediately flashed with Guan Qingcai's words to him: "Didn't you also give yourself to President Pei back then? Look, no one forced you, right? But it seems like the whole world is forcing you..."

He was already a little mad, but he managed to remain calm on the outside. He turned around and asked, "Why is Pei Du here? I thought you invited me."

The implication is that if he had known Pei Du would come, he would not have come.

"I specially invited Mr. Pei to come." Guan Qingcai hurriedly walked in and pulled out a chair for Wen Qiu. "I really have something important to tell you. Xiaoqiu, please sit down first and listen to me patiently."

There was a square table for four people, Guan Qingcai sat in the middle and Pei Du sat opposite him. Fortunately, the table was big enough, and the wine and dishes were already served. They were all the dishes he loved to eat when he was a child.

Wen Qiu's eyes slowly passed over the exquisite dishes and finally landed on Pei Du's face. Pei Du smiled at him, "Actually, I don't know what Ms. Guan wants me to do."

Then his eyes completed the second half of the sentence: I just knew you would come, so I came.

Guan Qingcai had some bad habits of a hostess of a big family. As soon as she sat down, she began to persuade people to drink and eat, making the atmosphere lively. Wen Qiu hardly drank, but Pei Du drank all the wine that Guan Qingcai offered.

After a few drinks, Guan Qingcai finally stopped being shy and started talking more. "Xiao Qiu, I heard that you opened a film company and signed a director named Gong Changyang, right?"

"Yes."

"Don't use him anymore!" Guan Qingcai said nervously, "I heard some bad rumors. Your Uncle Dou told me, and every word is true..."

It turned out that Gong Changyang was not just helping Xie Guangming, he was also flattering him in private. That day, he found a few 18th-tier celebrity models and invited Xie Guangming to a private club to have fun.

Those celebrity models were all very young and beautiful, but Xie Guangming took a quick look and said, "They are young, but unfortunately their looks are too ordinary. They are not even one ten-thousandth as good as your boss."

Gong Changyang immediately smiled and said, "Our President Wen is indeed good-looking. If President Xie likes her, I can help you get in touch with her!"

"Oh? I heard that his background is not simple. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get him."

"Mr. Xie, what you said is true. With your status and position, it's easy to capture anyone you want." Gong Changyang said with a beaming face. "Besides, they are OMEGA. If you use some tricks, they will come to you on their own initiative..."

The old men at the scene all laughed in an ambiguous tone. One of them had a good relationship with Guan Qingcai and told her this story as a joke, "Your son is so charming. Don't you know that Mr. Xie has said that he is willing to spend hundreds of millions on him?"

Guan Qingcai couldn't sleep that night when her son, whom she hadn't seen for many years, suddenly appeared in her ears in this way. The next day, she hurried to find Wen Jierui to inquire about him, and this happened.

Wen Qiu listened to the whole story without any emotion, as he was used to this kind of thing. But Pei Du looked solemn, and his aura was frighteningly low. Wen Qiu looked at him with one hand on his chin, thinking, why are you angry? It's not you who is unlucky.

"Your uncle Dou told me privately - in fact, everyone in their circle knows it," Guan Qingcai pursed her lips, "They all say that you are a precious 'stamp'."

"Stamps?" Wen Qiu tilted his head.

"Xie Guangming... I didn't know his true nature when I married into the Xie family. It was only later that I gradually saw through him." Guan Qingcai took another sip of wine before she had the courage to continue, "He likes to sleep with young and inexperienced people, and once he sets his eyes on someone, he must have them. After he sleeps with someone, he will collect a handful of their hair and keep it, proudly calling it 'stamp collecting'..."

He didn't finish his words, but his meaning was self-evident - he once had evil thoughts about his stepson, but unfortunately Wen Qiu ran away before he could act on them.

After so many years, he obviously hasn't let go of his evil intentions. He had already arranged Gong Changyang as his chess piece, ready to find an opportunity to eat Wen Qiu up and fill the blank regret in his "photo album" for many years.

"So when you ran away from home, I didn't dare to look for you." Guan Qingcai said with red eyes, "I was afraid that Xie Guangming would find you and do something to you. When I heard that you ran away to find your father, uh, Wen Jierui, I was really relieved, thinking that you were at least safe."

Wen Qiu was willing to believe that he was telling the truth. Guan Qingcai might have had good intentions for her, but unfortunately not much. She knew that her husband wanted to rape her son, but she didn't even have the courage to file for divorce. The more she realized this, the more disgusted she felt. "So you came here specifically to remind me to be careful of Xie Guangming? Thank you, he has already made a move on me, and I will be on guard against him in the future."

Hearing his nonchalant tone, Guan Qingcai said anxiously: "No, you don't understand how terrible he is! He is as sinister and poisonous as a venomous snake. The whole Yan City is his world. There is nothing he can't get if he sets his eyes on it!"

Wen Qiu certainly didn't underestimate Xie Guangming, and he knew very well how dirty his methods were. But he was no longer a 17 or 18-year-old boy who could be bullied at will. Xie Guangming could give it a try and see who would suffer the consequences in the end.

Perhaps because of his disdainful expression, Guan Qingcai became even more worried. He suddenly stood up, holding a full glass of wine, and said to Pei Du: "In fact, I asked Mr. Pei to come here today because of this matter. Mr. Pei, let me toast you first."

After saying that, he raised his head and drank heartily. Pei Du also drank up the wine in the glass out of respect.

"Boss Pei has a good alcohol tolerance! Please listen to my humble request," Guan Qingcai said with all her courage, "I know Boss Pei cares a lot about our Xiaoqiu, and he is doing very well in Yan City now. As a mother, I have no ability, so I can only entrust him to you. Xie Guangming is not easy to deal with, so please Boss Pei take good care of our Xiaoqiu..."

"Guan Qingcai!" Wen Qiu stood up and interrupted him rudely, "Can you please shut up?"

Why did Guan Qingcai call him over and entrust him to Pei Du on her own initiative? Did he understand the situation clearly? Did he think he was still a pet kept by Pei Du like he was four years ago? !

Pei Du sat there with a gloomy face. He knew very well in his mind that Guan Qingcai did not dare to step forward on her own, so she wanted to invite himself to be the door god to make up for the debt she felt towards her son.

He really wanted to meet Wen Qiu, and he wanted to meet him like crazy, but this was not the right way to meet him. So he kept silent, determined not to bring trouble upon himself.

Guan Qingcai shrank her neck when Wen Qiu yelled at her, but she still insisted: "Look, you are being stubborn again. Mom is doing this for your own good. How can you, an OMEGA, be out there without the protection of an ALPHA..."

"It's for my own good, haha, it's for my own good..." Wen Qiu was so angry that his head was buzzing. Instead of getting angry, he laughed, "Guan Qingcai, did you know that Pei Du and I broke up a long time ago?"

"This..." Guan Qingcai's face paled a little, but he clearly saw Pei Du playing with Wen Qiu's child that day.

"Let me ask you again, do you know what I have done in these years?" Wen Qiu stepped closer.

"Of course I know! I've seen all the movies you've made and the award ceremonies you've attended!" Guan Qingcai said hurriedly, "I've always been proud of you, and I tell everyone that he's my son..." "Then why do you think I'm a loser who can't protect myself? Why do you think I can't live without a man? Why did you take the initiative to find someone to protect me?" Wen Qiu hooked up the expensive pearl necklace around his neck and stared down at his horrified eyes. "Is it because you yourself are a good-for-nothing OMEGA who can't live without a man?"

Guan Qingcai covered her mouth. Wen Qiu’s words were so hurtful. How could he say that about his own mother!
He struggled, and his long pointed nails scratched Wen Qiu's hand. Wen Qiu didn't change his expression, and grabbed his wrist with such force that he almost crushed him. There was a terrible murderous aura between his eyebrows, as if there was a beast lurking in those green eyes, ready to pounce out and bite off his neck at any time.

It was only then that Pei Du intervened and held Wen Qiu's shoulders from behind, "Okay, it's not worth getting angry with such a person."

He actually didn't mind Wen Qiu humiliating Guan Qingcai for a while longer, but he also felt sorry for Wen Qiu getting too angry.

Guan Qingcai felt more and more sad as she thought about it. She couldn't help shedding tears, and her carefully applied makeup was ruined. It was rare in her life that she had tried so hard to do something for her son, but this was the result.

"I don't care about you anymore, and I can't care about you either. Just pretend you're not my son! How did I teach you since you were a child? How did I teach you to become what you are now..." He wiped his tears with the back of his hand, picked up his bag, turned around and walked out. As his high heels stepped out of the door, he heard Wen Qiu's sarcastic voice following him:

"All I've done is to forget the education you gave me and not live like you."

"Bang--" The sound of the door slamming was particularly loud, making the room even quieter. Wen Qiu took a deep breath, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and put it in his mouth. Before he could find the lighter, Pei Du handed him a lighter and lit it for him.

In the swirling smoke, Wen Qiu looked at his unclear face and slowly said, "It's just a little family matter. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Mr. Pei."

"I know you don't want me to be here, but I'm glad I can hear these things." Pei Du invited, "We haven't even touched the delicious food on the table yet, how about we have a couple more drinks?"

Wen Qiu didn't drink much, but he felt a little drunk - maybe because he was angry. He laughed: "What do you want to drink? You want to get me drunk so that you can do whatever you want?"

"Then I'll drink." Pei Du pulled his arm and took him to sit down with a little effort. "You accompany me."

"Why?" Wen Qiu asked.

"Because I've been taking good care of the children recently?" Pei Du said frankly.

Wen Qiu agreed with this in his heart, but he was not merciful when he said, "I handed Xiao Zhiliao to you not because you did a good job, but because the child needs an Alpha father."

He can teach children many things, but he is not good at some things, such as sports, social interaction, and how to become a qualified Alpha. Most of the time, it was Wen Zhiyao who indulged him and stayed at home with him to grow mushrooms. Wen Qiu could feel that since Pei Du came, Wen Zhiyao's personality has become much more cheerful.

Pei Du smiled and did not refute. "I am glad that I can at least help you share some of the pressure. Why reject Guan Qingcai's proposal? In fact, his idea is not wrong. I would be a good choice to deal with Xie Guangming."

"Thanks, but it's not necessary. My mother looks down on me, but I look up to myself."

“No mother would look down on her child.”

"Really? But no matter what I achieve, in Guan Qingcai's eyes, I will always be an omega who has to rely on ALPHA for a living." Wen Qiu sneered, "He knows nothing about you, but he believes that you can solve all my problems, just because you are a naturally superior ALPHA."

Pei Du knew very well what Wen Qiu cared about. His strong nature was fighting against the prejudice of the whole world, and even his own existence seemed to be part of the proof that he was "incompetent".

So he did not refute, but changed the subject: "What if I originally wanted to attack Xie Guangming? The An family and the Xie family are sworn enemies. I have been planning in Yan City in recent years, to a large extent, to join forces with the An family to swallow up the Xie family. Xie Guangming is very cunning, and you know him better than me, Qiuqiu, we can definitely cooperate."

"You do your thing, and I do mine," Wen Qiu asked unceremoniously, "Why do we have to be together?"

"In my opinion, cooperation to achieve better results is not inconsistent with your being an independent person." Seeing that he was unmoved, Pei Du remained very patient, "Just like you handed Xiao Zhiliao to me, you didn't have to take on everything yourself."

Wen Qiu looked at him thoughtfully. He might be able to use others openly, but not Pei Du. Relying on him was an unconscious inertia. The lessons of the past were too painful, and he was afraid of repeating the same mistakes.

Since he came back, Pei Du was gentle, polite and tactful. Even his pursuit was as gentle as spring rain. He was like a wild beast with its fangs hidden, just hovering around him, creating a vague sense of presence.

Just like in the past, he still couldn't see through Pei Du's true thoughts, so he dared not let his guard down at any time.

Wen Qiu's mind suddenly changed, and he took the wine bottle and filled Pei Du's glass with wine.

Pei Du had already been forced to drink a lot by Guan Qingcai. As he watched the glass fill up little by little, he smiled and said, "If you drink any more, I'll get drunk."

"Why, you never refuse a drink from Guan Qingcai," Wen Qiu raised his eyelids and looked at him, "are you going to refuse a drink I pour?"

"You're right," Pei Du took the wine glass, "I can never refuse you."

He took the wine glass and drank it all, then shook the empty bottom of the glass towards Wen Qiu. The ring still stayed securely on his left ring finger, shining brightly.

It didn't take long for Wen Qiu to successfully get Pei Du drunk. The restaurant was located above a luxury hotel, which was convenient. Wen Qiu went to the front desk to get a room and then took ALPHA upstairs.

Pei Du didn't look mad when he drank, but he walked steadily. He couldn't tell the directions. Wen Qiu pulled his hand and felt that his palm was very hot, like a child with a fever. It seemed that no matter where he was taken, he would follow without hesitation.

Wen Qiu went upstairs, swiped his card, and pushed him into the room. Pei Du looked around the unfamiliar presidential suite blankly, and soon his eyes drifted back. The dark pupils were scattered with stars, staring at him, as if he was the only moon in the sky.

Wen Qiu closed the door and locked it with a click, then turned around slowly, met his naked gaze, and smiled slightly, "What are you looking at?"
