Honest Beta gets scammed

He Xiangchen didn't say much, and unceremoniously sat down in the main seat.

Yang An sat next to him, her face beaming with joy, her eyes carefully concealing her affection as she looked at He Xiangchen.

He Xiangchen felt the intense gaze beside him, but he was used to it. He knew Yang An's thoughts perfectly well, but he didn't expose them. He just glanced at Yang An and smiled slightly, which almost shattered Yang An's carefully maintained facade.

Then, he gently withdrew his gaze.

When He Xiangchen took his seat, the atmosphere became even more lively, and they soon began to revel, shaking the dice cup and shouting loudly. The losers cursed under their breath and then pressed the service bell, ordering a bunch of receptionists to come and join the fun.

Yang An looked at the noisy group of people, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

This group of people are all spoiled brats abandoned by their families, destined to never gain real power within the family and only able to live a life of debauchery.

But there is one person who is different.

Thinking of this, he secretly glanced at He Xiangchen beside him.

The man leaned back lazily on the sofa, listening to the person next to him talk with an interested smile on his face. His perfect profile was impeccably handsome under the dim light.

Yang An felt his heart start pounding again.

Not long after, the door to the private room was pushed open, and a group of graceful receptionists filed in.

Most of them were Omegas, and their sweet pheromones wafted out slightly. Two exceptionally beautiful Omegas saw He Xiangchen and immediately walked over with bright smiles. They were familiar faces to He Xiangchen.

"Mr. He, you've arrived." One of the Omegas said sweetly, trying to get close to He Xiangchen.

Upon seeing this, a hint of coldness flashed in Yang An's eyes as he stared at the two Omegas, but soon, his usual smile returned. He turned to the side in a playful manner, patted the sofa next to him, and chuckled as he spoke to the two Omegas.

"Mr. He must be tired from his journey, so you two must take good care of him and make him happy."

After saying that, he reached out and hugged a pure and beautiful Omega, joining the group.

In order to be able to stay with He Xiangchen, he had been mingling in this circle of playboys, so he naturally knew very well what kind of person He Xiangchen was.

He absolutely could not, and dared not, reveal even the slightest intention to overstep his bounds.

Like everyone else around him, Yang An acted like a playboy, pinching the chin of the Omega in his arms and uttering lewd flirtatious words, while his eyes kept secretly glancing at He Xiangchen out of the corner of his eye.

Watching He Xiangchen embrace two women, enjoying the attentive service of two Omegas, looking utterly dissolute and unrestrained, Yang An lowered his eyes slightly.

Although he was displeased, he was not jealous of the two Omegas, since He Xiangchen would not really stay for them.

He has been in a state of turmoil these past few days because he recently heard that He Xiangchen got divorced. This news inevitably caused him to have some inappropriate thoughts, to the point that he was somewhat unstable in controlling his emotions.

But seeing He Xiangchen again today, completely unaffected and just like always, that budding thought of his vanished.

Well, this is for the best.

Although he doesn't like me, he doesn't like anyone else either.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

One of the playboys closest to the door was engrossed in his game and, without turning around, casually opened the door.

Li Qing walked in carrying a large tray filled with various drinks and freshly cut fruit. He carefully walked to the coffee table.

"Hello, everyone, here are your drinks."

Li Qing said softly, bent down, and took the wine bottle and fruit plate off the tray, placing them in the empty space on the coffee table.

The music in the room was loud and the light was dim, so his voice was almost drowned out, and no one paid any attention to him.

Li Qing didn't care and focused on arranging the things.

As he finished setting out the last bottle of wine and straightened up to leave, he met a pair of eyes.

On the main seat of the sofa in front, an Alpha was leaning back in a relaxed posture, one hand on the back of the sofa and the other holding a cigarette, staring at him.

Li Qing recognized the other person.

His heart skipped a beat; he felt a little nervous, wondering if he had done something wrong.

He waited there for a while, but the other party didn't give any instructions. He hesitated for a moment, then picked up the tray, nodded slightly to the person, and turned and left quickly.

As the door closed, He Xiangchen withdrew his gaze.

He glanced at the neatly arranged drinks on the coffee table and suddenly asked, "Was that one a new waiter the club hired?"

Upon hearing this, an Omega nearby smiled and replied, "Yes, they were just recruited not long ago, about a month or so."

Upon hearing this, He Xiangchen raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips, and uttered a teasing remark.

"Ha, Zhang Chen's hiring standards are getting more and more down-to-earth."

This remark immediately made everyone around laugh.

Another Omega beside him chimed in, "That's right. I was shocked when I first saw him, and I heard from others that he's already twenty-eight years old."

"Twenty-eight?" He Xiangchen was genuinely surprised this time. "I couldn't tell."

He recalled that submissive face from just now.

People would believe I'm in my early twenties; I never imagined I'd be this old.

Yang An, who had been silent until now, chuckled and said, "At this age, still working as a waiter? Could he be some poor relative of Zhang Chen that he has no connection with? Hahaha."

"It's possible, it's possible!" someone immediately echoed.

The topic of the new waiter sparked a brief chat, but it turned out to be a trivial incident, and soon the party in the private room resumed.

On the other side, Li Qing returned to the work area with the tray.

Liu Yu was washing dishes at the sink when she heard footsteps. She turned around, saw Li Qing, and casually asked, "Finished delivering?"

"Okay," Li Qing responded, placing the tray in the designated spot.

This was the third time he had seen that Alpha, and he had just been stared at like that, which finally made Li Qing a little curious about the other party.

He leaned closer to Liu Yu and asked in a low voice, "Hey, Liu Yu, I have a question for you. Do you know who that Alpha we ran into last night was?"

"Alpha? Which one?" Liu Yu's hands didn't stop moving, and his voice was a little muffled amidst the splashing water.

Li Qing thought for a moment, organized his thoughts, and described him as, "It's that one, the really tall one, the Alpha."

As he spoke, he gestured.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu paused in his actions, turned off the tap, shook the water droplets off his hands, and thought for a moment.
