Honest Beta gets scammed

Hurriedly returning to her worktable, Li Qing placed the tray down, the matcha cake that had been forced upon her still neatly arranged on it, emitting a sweet aroma.

But Li Qing had no appetite at all and stood to the side, staring longingly at Liu Yu.

Upon seeing his expression, Liu Yu instantly understood what was happening. She glanced around, grabbed Li Qing's arm, and said, "Come with me."

The two of them went into the staff break room one after the other.

It wasn't time to leave work yet, and the break room was empty.

Seeing this, Liu Yu casually closed the door and asked, "Did you run into that Alpha again? How much did you give him this time?"

Li Qing looked worried as he slowly pulled out a wad of banknotes from his pocket.

He ran too fast and didn't even have time to count.

Seeing this, Liu Yu took the money without saying a word and started counting it in front of Li Qing.

The more he counted, the more serious his expression became.

"Holy crap! Five thousand four hundred! They're giving more and more each time!"

He stuffed the money back into Li Qing's hand with a complicated expression, his voice somewhat hoarse.

"Hmm... it's been over half a month, and you still don't even know their name?"

Li Qing held the five thousand four and nodded honestly.

"hold head high."

Liu Yu was completely speechless.

He scratched his head, looking at Li Qing's face, completely baffled.

For the past two weeks, Li Qing has been receiving tips from that unknown Alpha almost every day, and the amount has been increasing, from 3,200 at the beginning to 5,400 now!

What else is there to say?

Sima Zhao's intentions are obvious to everyone!

But this is precisely what Liu Yu can't understand.

Why Li Qing of all people?!

In the past, it wasn't uncommon for customers to take a liking to the waitresses at the club, but those who were chosen were all young and beautiful. Li Qing was twenty-eight this year, the oldest among the club's waitresses, and her appearance was just average, not at all beautiful.

To put it bluntly, if you lined up all the waitresses at Shengxin Club, not one of them wouldn't be as pretty and distinctive as Li Qing.

It's unbelievable how things turned out; they've taken a liking to Li Qing!

Liu Yu rubbed his temples. He hadn't known Li Qing for long, but he could tell that this person was truly focused on working here and making money, and had no other intentions. Now that he was involved in this kind of thing, he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

His face was full of worry, and he couldn't help but start to overthink.

...On the bright side, maybe the Alpha who gave the money is a good person. If Li Qing wasn't willing, they might have let go. :)

Li Qing watched Liu Yu's ever-changing expression and pursed his lips.

After receiving large sums of money from the same person for more than half a month in a row, even he, who was slow to realize what was going on, began to have a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

But he always felt that something was wrong.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Liu Yu, actually I feel that she might not have had that intention."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu looked up and asked, "What does that mean? Does he have too much money to burn? Then why doesn't he just throw it in the trash? Why does he give it to you and not me?"

The three questions at the start almost completely stumped Li Qing.

He cleared his throat, organized his thoughts, and offered a soft explanation.

"No, I just feel that if someone really meant it, they would just say it directly, right? But actually, I've only spoken to him a few times, and every time he gives me a tip, I feel like he's really unhappy, and also..."

As she finished speaking, Li Qing's voice trailed off, "She's much better looking than me..."

That's really beautiful.

When he first saw him at the entrance of Shengxin, he was utterly shocked. His entire understanding of Alphas was completely overturned! Someone that good-looking, what kind of person couldn't they have? There was no way they could possibly be interested in him!

"nice?"

Liu Yu scoffed, disdainful of Li Qing's naiveté.

"Ha, the moment you have that thought, you need to be wary! Rich people have all sorts of tricks up their sleeves; who knows what new scheme this is? There are plenty of lecherous men in Shengxin who look decent enough! If you let your guard down just because you see a face, you might get swindled out of everything!"

"Have you read the novel? Have you watched the TV series? Why did those female protagonists who were cheated out of money and sex initially believe and like the scumbag male protagonist? Wasn't it simply because the scumbag was handsome, and she was a sucker for good looks!"

Li Qing's eyes instantly filled with shock.

His eyes widened as he looked at the indignant Liu Yu, feeling as if Liu Yu was radiating light.

Although he doesn't read novels or watch TV dramas, well, it sounds so reasonable!

Feeling the admiring gaze from Li Qing, Liu Yu realized she had gotten a little too excited. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she coughed lightly.

"Well, in short, what I mean is, be careful not to be seduced by beauty."

Li Qing nodded, feeling increasingly uncomfortable with the tip in his hand.

Just then, an order notification sound came from the computer on the workbench outside, finally bringing the conversation to a halt. The two exchanged a glance, quickly went outside, and resumed their busy work.

However, Li Qing soon discovered that things were developing in a way that exceeded his expectations.

Originally, only he and Liu Yu knew about the large tip he received.

But He Xiangchen didn't hide it from people at all when he gave tips, especially in the private room, where he was always surrounded by a group of people, including the Omega receptionist from Shengxin Club.

At first, everyone probably thought that He Xiangchen was just acting on a whim, since He Xiangchen always does things based on his mood.

But after it happened a few times, some people realized something was wrong.

He Xiangchen didn't tip the other waiters, he only tipped Li Qing.

Especially today, not only did they give her money, they also let Li Qing take a cake with her.

Now, the wind direction has completely changed.

Lately, Li Qing has noticed that many people are secretly observing him at work. Some customers even give him a smile for no apparent reason, with an ambiguous meaning that makes him feel uneasy.

Especially the receptionists.

The receptionists at Shengxin Club have separate rest areas for each gender. Alphas, Betas, and Omegas each have their own rest areas. Li Qing usually works near the Omega receptionists' rest area, so he sees them the most.

But recently, he has been encountering Alpha and Beta hosts in the hallway more and more often.

Moreover, some people would even come up to him and strike up a conversation, and they were all exceptionally friendly!

They all put on friendly faces and tried every trick in the book to get information out of him.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone kept mentioning that unknown Alpha, Li Qing would have really thought that his popularity had suddenly improved.
