Honest Beta gets scammed

Li Qing stared at the scene before him in disbelief.

He even fantasized that he wasn't fully awake yet.

He Xiangchen, dressed in a designer casual outfit that clashed with his surroundings, stood in his stinking chicken coop, holding a chipped, broken plastic basin, with a smile on his face.

Feeding chickens?

Seeing that the two were chatting happily, Li Qing could no longer hold back.

"What are you doing here!"

Upon hearing the sound, the two people beside the chicken coop turned around simultaneously.

When He Xiangchen saw Li Qing, his pupils trembled slightly for a moment, then a warm and friendly smile spread across his face, and he greeted her in a light voice.

"Good morning, Li Qing."

No answer.

The veins on Li Qing's forehead throbbed.

He was about to step forward to continue questioning when Li's mother spoke first, her tone full of approval.

"Oh, Qingzi, you're finally up! Look at you, what time have you been sleeping? Xiangchen came over to help early this morning, he's such a diligent kid!"

Li Qing's expression twitched twice, a breath stuck in his chest, neither rising nor falling.

Diligent? Him?

Li's mother, seemingly oblivious to her son's displeased expression, chuckled and continued, "It's good you're awake! Come on over and help with the chores! There's so much to do around the house!"

Speechless, Li Qing stared at He Xiangchen for a few seconds, only to be met with a perfectly kind smile.

In the end, he didn't say anything more, turned around and went back into the house with his head down.

After changing out of her pajamas and into her work clothes, Li Qing stepped out of the room again.

He didn't even glance at He Xiangchen in the backyard, and walked straight to the other end of the yard.

He didn't want to go to the chicken coop anymore. He Xiangchen liked feeding chickens so much, so let him feed them to his heart's content. He was going to feed the pigs instead.

However, even though Li Qing ignored them, they insisted on coming closer.

He Xiangchen quickly finished scattering the remaining corn grits in the basin, chatted warmly with Li's mother for a few more minutes, and soon finished the important task of feeding the chickens, turning his attention to Li Qing.

Li Qing was squatting on the ground, laboriously stirring pig bran with a large iron ladle.

A shadowy figure approached from the side.

He knew who it was without even looking up.

"Do you need any help?"

Li Qing didn't even look up, replying in a muffled voice, "No need."

He Xiangchen wasn't embarrassed; he just stood there watching Li Qing's actions.

The young master was clearly seeing this scene for the first time, and everything seemed novel to him. When he saw Li Qing stirring the pig bran and standing up to carry the bucket to the pigpen, He Xiangchen immediately reached out to him eagerly.

"Let me help you carry it."

Li Qing stepped aside, her face cold, and said, "No need, I can do it myself."

He carried the bucket, walked around He Xiangchen, and strode towards the pigsty.

He Xiangchen watched his retreating figure without getting annoyed, and followed closely behind.

Last night, after Li Qing confronted He Xiangchen, He Xiangchen was depressed after being verbally attacked by Li Qing and stayed in the hotel for a long time.

He was actually very remorseful about what happened during the kidnapping, including confessing his love over that incident.

He regretted it as soon as he walked out the door after confessing his feelings that day, but the words were already out, and he didn't have the courage to go back and be honest with Li Qing. In addition, he had been hoping for the best and just drifted along.

The more time passed, the more he realized this was a ticking time bomb, and he dared not confess anymore.

This has led to the current situation.

However, as much as He Xiangchen was upset and knew he was wrong, it was impossible to make him give up so easily.

So after a few hours of light sleep, I set off early and came back again.

After spending more than half a year together, He Xiangchen had come to understand Li Qing quite well. He had to keep trying to get Li Qing's attention and bother him every day, otherwise, Li Qing might really stop caring about him after a while.

For Li Qing, it was indeed pure harassment.

The young master can't do any farm work at all. He says he's helping out, but he's really just a moving roadblock, getting in the way.

Li Qing was already in a bad mood just looking at his face, and now that he kept trying to help but only made things worse, her mood worsened even more.

He walked to the first pigpen, poured pig bran into the trough, and several large, fat pigs immediately grunted and surrounded him, burying their heads in the food.

Li Qing leaned against the pigpen fence, looking at the pigs but ignoring the people around him.

He Xiangchen stood beside him, imitating him by leaning against the railing, turning his head to the side, but his gaze remained fixed on Li Qing's face.

"The air here is very good."

Li Qing ignored him.

"Those pigs look like they can eat a lot."

You can't eat as much as I can.

Li Qing continued to ignore him.

He Xiangchen didn't mind that he didn't respond and continued talking to himself.

Li Qing seemed annoyed by his noise, and finally turned her head to look into the room. Her mother was not there, so she looked at He Xiangchen with a cold face.

"What are you doing here again? Wasn't what I said last night clear enough?"

He Xiangchen lowered his eyes, his eyelashes casting a shadow beneath them, making him look somewhat pitiful.

"That's very clear... but I object."

Li Qing: "??"

Seeing Li Qing's furrowed brows, He Xiangchen immediately said:

"Regarding the surveillance incident, I admit it was my fault, but do you remember what I told you that day? My symptoms in that room were similar to my symptoms at the banquet, I..."

"Alright."

Li Qing interrupted him directly.

"Stop giving me that 'setting' nonsense. You've really gone to great lengths to fool me, even fabricating a sexual characteristic out of thin air. I almost fell for your lies the other day!"

"He Xiangchen, your company is so big, aren't you busy? Why are you picking on me?"

Li Qing became increasingly agitated as he spoke.

Looking up, I saw the disappointment and hurt on He Xiangchen's face, and my heart clenched.

Then it dawned on me that I actually felt sorry for this lousy liar!

It's even more annoying.

Li Qing frowned, not wanting to look at that face anymore, and turned to leave.

"No!"

Seeing this, He Xiangchen panicked and grabbed his shoulder.

"I'm not lying to you! My extreme behavior back then was truly due to my sexual characteristics! I really am Enigma!"

"Didn't you notice that day that my pheromones are different from ordinary Alpha pheromones? That control ability just doesn't work on you! If you don't believe me, I can find someone to test it on you right now!"

Li Qing ignored him, broke free from He Xiangchen's hand, and carried the second bucket of pig bran to the second pigpen.

He Xiangchen didn't dare to force him to leave, and quickly followed after him.

"I admit that my extreme behavior was partly due to my subconscious, but... but there were reasons why I did it that way!"

"Li Qing, I already wanted to be with you before I confessed to you, but we had only known each other for a short time then. You said you didn't like Alphas or men, so I got a little anxious."
