Shen Dai went to the ward to say goodbye to his grandmother, saying that he would bring Qiuqiu to see her again tomorrow. So she went to the front desk to find Cheng Ruoze and planned to take a ride in his car home.
Cheng Ruoze was still talking to the nurse.
“Assistant Cheng, what’s wrong?”
“The nurse said that Qiuqiu’s file is here, but it’s encrypted. It’s strange, when was it entered?”
Shen Dai suddenly remembered something: “Oh, Qiuqiu had a fever before and stayed here for one night.” He didn’t really forget about this. But that day, Qu Moyu secretly drew Qiuqiu’s blood for a paternity test and then used to blackmail him with custody. He subconsciously doesn’t want to think about it.
“So it turns out like that. Then tomorrow will be easy. Miss Nurse, please transfer the file and record the time of the child’s first two hepatitis B vaccines.” Cheng Ruoze said, “Shen Gong, come over tomorrow and directly find the head nurse. She will arrange it all for you.”
“Okay, actually
” Qu Moyu will also come tomorrow; Sen Dai wanted to say this.
“I’m sorry. Shen Yue’s files are not allowed to be retrieved casually.” The nurse said while looking at the screen.
“Why is that?” Cheng Ruoze immediately responded, “Oh. It was Mr. Qu who asked for the encryption, right? It’s okay. I’m Mr. Qu’s assistant and this is Shen Yue’s omega father.”
The nurse was a little embarrassed. Although she didn’t know Cheng Ruoze and Shen Dai, she could see how much her leaders attached importance to Shen Dai’s grandmother. So she didn’t doubt their identities: “But I don’t have the authority. I need confirmation from the higher ups.”
“It’s okay. I’ll call her.” Cheng Ruoze called the head nurse directly.
After the head nurse confirmed the identities of the two, the little nurse entered the password and retrieved Qiuqiu’s file: “Do you want to enter the vaccination time? Please inform me.”
Shen Dai flipped through the records on the phone and reported the time to the nurse.
The front desk is curved. The two of them are standing just so that they can see a bit of the screen from the side. Cheng Ruoze is tall and has long legs. He leaned over a little to see more clearly. He just glanced at it accidentally, but he found an eye-catching letter.
He let out an “ah” in surprise.
The nurse looked up at him and Shen Dai asked inexplicably, “what’s the matter?”
“Damn it!” Cheng Ruoze simply turned the screen over. His voice trembling slightly with excitement, “Qiuqiu is an S-class!”
Shen Dai was stunned.
Cheng Ruoze said excitedly: “Why didn’t you and Mr. Qu tell everyone about it? Qiuqiu is actually
” He looked at Shen Dai’s blank expression and felt that something was wrong. This expression was clearly a sign that Shen Dai had no knowledge of it.
Shen Dai also looked at the screen. In Qiuqiu’s file, the pheromone level column should have been empty, because he had never tested it. But now, S is clearly written in black on the white background.
S-class alpha.
Qiuqiu is an S-class alpha.
Cheng Ruoze asked cautiously, “Shen Gong, you don’t know?” He was also full of confusion. How could a father not know the pheromone level of his child? Even if he didn’t test it before and now that he knows, it should be a big deal. Isn’t it a happy event? But Shen Dai’s reaction really puzzled him.
A lot of complicated sounds and pictures flooded into Shen Dai’s mind. Countless emotions blocked his nervous system, making it difficult for him to think. His child turned out to be an S-class alpha, which is equivalent to winning a lottery for anyone. But he couldn’t give birth to any joy. The first thing that came to his mind was ‘that was it’. Qu Moyu’s all kinds of diligence and flattery towards him and Qiuqiu, even violating the half-life principle and taking the risk of being monopolised for reproductive rights. Him wanting to marry and ‘mark’ him even when he is an inferior omega. Now they all have explanations – Qu Moyu has already received his most wanted S-class alpha heir.
I see.
All of Qu Moyu’s actions have reasonable motives.
The funny thing is
 That night when they were enjoying the Epiphyllum together in the rainy night, that gentle kiss, that moment when he longed for time to stand still and all the unbearable past to be temporarily forgotten, he actually believed that Qu Moyu really had feelings for him. Because of the sweetness of the past, or if it was because of that unexpected ‘marking’, more or less, he had liked him a little bit.
But reality is about logic, not speculation. Everything Qu Moyu does has a clear logical chain. Only an ordinary person like him can think about problems from an emotional point of view subconsciously. The S-class alpha has always been flawless. As early as the day Qiuqiu came to this hospital because of a fever, Qu Moyu already knew everything. So he used custody to force him to go back to his house, he broke the engagement, saying he wanted to marry him, and even ‘mark’ him. He should have guessed it a long time ago. How could Qu Moyu let go of his arrogance if he is not driven by huge interests?
Even though his heart was repeatedly torn and painful at this moment, Shen Dai still felt fortunate. So he was ‘reassured’ that Qu Moyu had never changed and he would no longer have to toss and turn to speculate about his words and deeds. He would no longer try to pick up the small hope from the broken soul in that place. He would no longer have to have expectations for the picture of Qu Moyu and Qiuqiu together. If he still has the slightest illusion about Qu Moyu after going through this bruised tempering, then he deserves all the sins he had suffered.
Cheng Ruoze was really frightened when he saw that Shen Dai’s face was so pale that it was almost bloodless. There was pain that could not be resolved in his eyes. He was really frightened. “What’s wrong with you? Did I say something wrong?”
Shen Dai was like a body whose soul had been evacuated and he remained silent for a long time.
He looks intact on the outside, but his heart has been smashed. But he can’t let anyone find out. His grandmother and his child depend on him. So he must stand.
“Shen Gong, should I inform President Qu? Is there something wrong with the hospital?” Cheng Ruoze looked at Shen Dai and was shocked.
Shen Dai looked at Cheng Ruoze. His eyes were dark and empty. He shook his head lightly: “No. Don’t let Mr. Qu know about this. Because Mr. Qu doesn’t want people to know.”
Cheng Ruoze immediately knew that he was in trouble. He took a deep breath and looked at the nurse.
The nurse was also very nervous: “I don’t know anything. You just called my superior to confirm.”
Shen Dai lowered his head: “Assistant Cheng, please take care of this matter. I’ll go back first.” After speaking, he turned around and left without waiting for Cheng Ruoze’s response. Although his legs were a little weak, he walked away quickly. Before his emotional breakdown, he must avoid himself from being seen by everyone’s sight and swallow the pain bit by bit. It was just like countless times before, no one can save him.
What few people didn’t notice was that Shen Qin was standing at the corner of the corridor not far away. In the front hall of the empty private hospital, the echoes were transmitted loudly

***
Early the next morning, Qu Moyu came to pick Shen Dai and Qiuqiu up. He remembered the first time Qiuqiu was in the same car with him, he could not stop crying when he smelled the ebony pheromone that had once threatened him. But now, he took the initiative to reach out to Qu Moyu.
Qu Moyu hugged Qiuqiu in surprise and kissed the little fair dough-like face: “Does Qiuqiu miss Dad?”
Qiuqiu grinned happily with a toothless mouth.
Shen Dai’s expression was as usual. No emotions could be seen on his face.
“Qiuqiu and I are getting closer and closer.” Qu Moyu’s face was full of smiles, “He knows that I’m his father.” For three months, he tried his best to please this little bastard. Now, he finally no longer cries when he sees him. This current harmony
 he will definitely become dependent on him further. For the sake of the child, Shen Dai should also gradually let go of his grievances.
Shen Dai glanced at Qiuqiu who was smiling sweetly, then looked away. No one noticed the pain in his eyes. That’s right. Qiuqiu and Qu Moyu are getting closer and closer. All of Qiuqiu’s things have been stained with ebony pheromones. The real alpha father is by his side. Qiuqiu no longer needs a substitute pheromone. It was his innate instinct and destiny to accept Qu Moyu.
One day, maybe Qiuqiu will no longer need his omega father. It seems that the growth of an S-class alpha requires them to abandon useless emotions. They will become hard and cold. This is how Qu Moyu grew up. For Qiuqiu to become such a person, the situation is completely contrary to his wishes.
Qu Moyu will take his child away. Whether legally, emotionally, or educationally, this fear goes hand in hand.
A half-year-old child will not remember anything. If Qu Moyu stole Qiuqiu from him, Qiuqiu would soon forget him. As the next heir to the Qu family, he would enjoy wealth and respect. And he would be instilled with self-priority and interests. He would think that he is above all, growing up superiorly and arrogantly. He would become the second S-class alpha that was glamorous and perfect but also selfish and ruthless.
How could he let his child become like that?
Qu Moyu was still immersed in the joy of being recognized by Qiuqiu. He held Qiuqiu in one hand and took Shen Dai’s hand in the other: “We will go home after the vaccination. Some time ago, my father and I got into a fight because of me breaking off the engagement. The trouble is very unpleasant. My mother has been doing hard work to get him to be impressed by Qiuqiu.” He took Shen Dai’s hand and kissed it with his lips as he looked at him with gentle eyes, “Even if he doesn’t accept you and Qiuqiu, I don’t have to please him. But it’s best if the family can live in harmony, right?”
Shen Dai nodded indifferently.
“Don’t worry. Everything will be fine.” Qu Moyu’s eyes were slightly curved with a shallow smile. In his heart, their relationship was indeed developing towards a positive direction. Qiuqiu’s acceptance of him was a sign of this. His omega will eventually see his intentions, forgive his mistakes, and trust his feelings. They will become a real family.
