    Chapter 52: Not a Single Good One

    Just as Jiang Qiu hung up the phone, the beta assistant beside Qin Zhici walked over, “Manager, President Qin said he wants to see you.”

    Jiang Qiu gripped his phone, his cold gaze sweeping over.

    Like father, like son, they’re all coming for him.

    The beta took a step back, “Please, Manager.”

    Jiang Qiu strode towards the elevator.

    The beta secretly sized Jiang Qiu up. Black trousers, shirt buttoned to the very top, the young man’s face still somewhat tender, but with sharp eyebrows and a cold demeanor.

    No matter how you look at it, his pheromone level is high.

    As soon as Jiang Qiu entered, he saw Qin Zhici, one hand in his pocket, the other holding a coffee, leaning against the desk, seemingly lost in thought.

    “President Qin,” Jiang Qiu called out.

    Hearing the voice, Qin Zhici turned around, a mocking smile playing on his lips, “Why call me President Qin? Shouldn’t it be ‘older brother’?”

    Jiang Qiu’s expression didn’t change, “This is the company.”

    “You certainly know how to keep things separate.” Qin Zhici put down his cup, paced over to the sofa chair and sat down, his sharp gaze fixed on Jiang Qiu. “I’m very curious, who is your mother?”

    Qin Tinglei was known for his dalliances when he was young, but he didn’t leave behind many children. Jiang Qiu was the only illegitimate son who returned to the Qin family.

    Jiang Qiu’s face, there’s no need for a paternity test to know he’s Qin Tinglei’s seed.

    Jiang Qiu didn’t say who his mother was. He didn’t inherit much of his appearance from her, so Qin Zhici wouldn’t be able to guess that his mother was He Yuetang’s aunt.

    “She passed away.”

    “Oh.” Qin Zhici faintly curved his lips. “A hard life, if she were alive…”

    Qin Zhici didn’t finish, but let out a snort. Jiang Qiu understood what he meant.

    Jiang Qiu had heard many mocking words when he was young, and he no longer cared. However, the hand hanging by his side quietly clenched. He said in a flat tone, “Madam Qin’s life was good, it’s just that she died early.”

    Hearing this, Qin Zhici gnashed his teeth and laughed in anger.

    Damn it, there isn’t a single good thing around him!

    “Jiang Qiu, what did my assistant say to you that day at the Wen family?”

    Qin Zhici didn’t see Jiang Qiu and Yun Yi’s appearance clearly that day. He still remembered that he was going over that day, but was stopped by He Yuetang.

    It was impossible that He Yuetang didn’t recognize Jiang Qiu.

    Jiang Qiu looked over, taking in all of Qin Zhici’s emotions.

    Suddenly, he remembered what He Yuetang had said that day, that he loved Qin Zhici.

    Jiang Qiu’s face was indifferent as he looked at Qin Zhici’s eyes, and slowly said, “Assistant He said that he had fallen in love with an alpha and asked the Yun family’s family doctor if there was a way to mark an alpha.”

    Qin Zhici’s hand suddenly clenched, his eyes scarlet, as if he hated it to the extreme.

    Jiang Qiu understood in an instant.

    The eldest son of the Qin family is a submissive, and an unwilling, forced submissive.

    Qin Zhici didn’t speak, his eyes filled with ice as he coldly looked at Jiang Qiu.

    The two brothers had the same imposing manner, neither fearing the other, neither afraid of the other.

    “President Qin, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go out.”

    As he was leaving, Qin Zhici called out to him from behind, “Jiang Qiu, the Qin Corporation is mine, give up your thoughts.”

    “If you honestly be a manager, whether you’re absent or taking leave, I’ll cover for you with Father. The money Qin Corporation gives you is enough for you to live a carefree life.”

    Jiang Qiu didn’t even turn his head as he said, “Compared to me, President Qin should cover up your collar. An omega wouldn’t be wild enough to leave a deep red hickey on your neck.”

    Just as the door was closing, the sound of a cup falling and shattering came from inside the room.

    There was no hickey. Jiang Qiu was purely talking nonsense, in order to observe Qin Zhici’s reaction.

    The reaction he got made him feel that He Yuetang was more capable than he had imagined.

    As soon as Jiang Qiu came out, He Yuetang walked towards him. After their eyes met, He Yuetang detected a hint of teasing in Jiang Qiu’s eyes.

    He was inexplicably confused, but there were surveillance cameras in the corridor. He Yuetang nodded and averted his gaze, walking towards the president’s office.

    As soon as he entered, he was met with Qin Zhici’s gloomy face.

    He Yuetang lowered his head and walked over, “President Qin, the contract has been sent to the Han family.”

    It wasn’t sent, it was torn up.

    After sleeping with him, he wants to find a way to marry.

    Dream on.

    Qin Zhici suppressed his annoyance and looked at He Yuetang, who was gradually approaching. He stretched out his index finger with a bite mark, “Stop right there, stay one meter away from me!”

    He Yuetang stopped, looking at Qin Zhici from a distance, “President Qin, you’re angry.”

    Qin Zhici breathed roughly, feeling that the tie on his neck was a little tight, making it difficult for him to breathe, suffocating.

    Just as he was about to loosen it, he thought of Jiang Qiu’s words.

    He cursed inwardly, looking at He Yuetang’s serious but insensitive face, wishing he could punch him.

    “What did you say to Jiang Qiu when you first met him?”

    He Yuetang didn’t understand why Qin Zhici was bringing up old matters again, and repeated his previous statement, “Visiting my teacher, the Yun family’s young master.”

    “Heh.”

    Qin Zhici couldn’t hold back any longer.

    He was going to shatter He Yuetang’s mask of lying through his teeth!

    Qin Zhici stood up with a “whoosh”, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth as he walked towards He Yuetang, “Say it again.”

    He Yuetang felt the alpha’s pheromones, and without changing his words, repeated what he had said before, “Visiting my…”

    “Bang!”

    Qin Zhici punched him, and the alpha’s explosive power sent He Yuetang staggering.

    “Say it again, you son of a…”

    He Yuetang wiped his lips, a smear of blood landing on his fingertips.

    His wife looked so hot when she hit people.

    He loved it.

    Seeing the slight curve of He Yuetang’s lips, Qin Zhici was so angry that his arms were trembling, and his voice suddenly rose, “He Yuetang, if you lie one more time, get out of Qin Corporation!”

    He Yuetang straightened his body, approached Qin Zhici, and said word by word, “President Qin, that day will come.”

    The two alphas’ pheromones were silently competing.

    Qin Zhici was repeatedly provoked, and anger surged to his head. He rushed forward with another punch.

    As the fist landed, He Yuetang’s fingers tapped on Qin Zhici’s arm, three consecutive taps on acupoints, instantly softening the enraged alpha.

    Qin Zhici’s eyes were red, and he bent over to hold onto the desk, staring at He Yuetang with all his might, “He Yuetang! You motherf…”

    He Yuetang wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with his fingertip, and grabbed the other’s chin, smearing all the red on Qin Zhici’s lower lip.

    The pale lips were stained with red, making his face look cold and alluring.

    He lowered his head and stared obsessively at Qin Zhici.

    “President Qin, I’ll buy you a lip rouge tomorrow. I want to taste what it’s like to stain your lips.”

    “Spit! You…, you’re not even pretending anymore, are you…”

    The rest of the words were blocked by He Yuetang.

    He Yuetang didn’t want to hold back anymore.

    He was going crazy from the moment he knew Qin Zhici was going to get married.

    Jiang Qiu came just in time, giving him hope of obtaining Qin Zhici.

    He had grown up with Qin Zhici since he was a child, seen too many sides of Qin Zhici, and seen sides of Qin Zhici that he would never show to others.

    He Yuetang didn’t know when this feeling had changed.

    Even with his aunt’s hatred between them, he couldn’t help but fall in love with Qin Zhici.

    Many times, he told Qin Zhici that him sleeping with Qin Zhici wasn’t because of his aunt’s hatred, nor was it for revenge.

    It was simply because of love.

    But Qin Zhici didn’t believe him. Qin Zhici wanted to get married, to consolidate the Qin family.

    In Qin Zhici’s eyes, the most important thing was the Qin family, so he would take away the most important thing, and make him the most important thing in Qin Zhici’s eyes.

    He could never stay by Qin Zhici’s side as a good brother, a good subordinate.

    So what if they were both alphas, he only wanted Qin Zhici.

    Hate or love, he only wanted Qin Zhici.
