Chapter 66: The Gloomy and Obsessive Alpha Boss x the Sweet and Obedient Little Omega 18
“Aren’t we going to meet your parents?”
Ye Hao looked around the exquisitely decorated room with a puzzled expression.
“It’s too noisy at the banquet,” Lin Zhiyi said, pulling out a chair for him. A blush crept across his cheeks. “For our first meeting, it’s better to find a quiet place where we can talk comfortably. After we’ve met, I’ll have my parents formally introduce you to them.”
Ye Hao put his arm around Lin Zhiyi’s shoulder. “But what if your Aunt and Uncle don’t like me?”
Lin Zhiyi glanced at the hand on his shoulder, suppressing the urge to gag. His voice was gentle. “But I’ve already decided on you.”
“Whether we’re rich or poor in this lifetime, I’m going to cling to you forever, Brother Hao. Don’t even think about getting rid of me…”
Lin Zhiyi raised his eyes, shedding his pretense. His gaze was utterly sincere, his voice filled with heartfelt emotion. “Brother Hao, you mustn’t abandon me. I’m easy to care for—a bowl of rice per meal is enough…”
The arm gripping his shoulder slowly tightened. Ye Hao suddenly pulled Lin Zhiyi into a tight embrace. “Xiao Yi, you’re truly wonderful.”
“Meeting you has been the greatest blessing of my life.”
“I promise to cherish you and love you deeply…”
Lin Zhiyi softened in his arms, leaning against his chest as they lingered in each other’s embrace for a long while.
Once Ye Hao had calmed down, Lin Zhiyi checked the time, straightened his clothes in front of the mirror, and glanced at the burning candle in the French candlestick. His voice was gentle.
“Brother Hao, wait here a moment. I’ll bring my parents over right away.”
Lin Zhiyi turned left as he left the room and nodded to a servant.
The servant entered the room carrying a tray with a bottle of expensive red wine.
Seeing Madam Huo finishing a conversation, Lin Zhiyi hurried over with a glass of champagne.
“Aunt, there’s something I’m not sure whether I should tell you…”
Madam Huo glanced around and lowered her voice. “Is it about that Omega?”
Lin Zhiyi nodded, his expression conflicted. “I’ve been staying at the villa these past few weeks and have had a lot of contact with him… I shouldn’t be speaking ill of him behind his back…”
“But Aunt, you’ve always been so kind to me, and it concerns Brother Zhedong’s health. After thinking it over, I couldn’t bring myself to lie to you…”
Madam Huo urged anxiously, “Xiao Yi, just tell me.”
“Aunt, you know Brother Zhedong has been alone for years. He turned down all the Omegas you introduced him to. Why would he suddenly become so infatuated with one he met at a bar?”
Madam Huo looked at him, a hint of worry in her beautiful eyes.
“Isn’t it because of their high pheromone compatibility?”
Lin Zhiyi shook his head, hesitating. “At first, I thought so too. But after seeing the report, I learned their compatibility is only 80%…”
“But how could an 80% compatibility make Brother Zhedong dote on him so much? He even takes the Little Omega to work with him…”
Madam Huo: “This child! Blinded by lust, it’s utter nonsense.”
“Don’t blame him too much, Aunt.”
Lin Zhiyi took Madam Huo’s hand. “That Omega’s gland has a defect, so he can’t be permanently marked. I heard he’s been with many Alphas before, so he has a lot of experience… I also heard…”
Lin Zhiyi leaned close to Madam Huo’s ear and whispered a few words.
After listening, Madam Huo’s ears turned red, and her face flushed with anger. “Shameless! Utterly shameless! How dare he seduce our Zhedong like this? He’s taking advantage of the fact that Zhedong has never been with an Omega before! That’s why he fell for it so easily!”
“Exactly…” Lin Zhiyi fanned the flames. “Even seasoned Alphas can’t resist those specially modified Omegas, let alone Brother Zhedong… If this goes on, Brother Zhedong’s body won’t be able to handle it…”
Madam Huo couldn’t bear to listen any longer. “I’m going to find him!”
Lin Zhiyi thoughtfully reminded her, “Aunt, please don’t rush. Brother Zhedong takes that Omega everywhere he goes. If you go there now, he’ll think you’re trying to bully him… Then that Little Omega will cry and whisper sweet nothings in his ear, and your loving concern for your son will only end up making Brother Zhedong unhappy.”
“Aunt knows what to do.”
Madam Huo patted his hand. “Good boy, you’re thoughtful. Once Aunt gets rid of that Omega, I’ll talk to your parents about the two of you.”
Lin Zhiyi blushed and lowered his head. “Aunt~”
Madam Huo sighed and followed the crowd to find her husband.
The blush on Lin Zhiyi’s face gradually faded as he glanced at the time on his watch.
Everything was going according to plan.
Madam Huo would take Jiang Luoluo away from Huo Zedong; they would have a conflict and separate, Jiang Luoluo would go missing, and when he was found again, it would be in the shameless act of adultery with Ye Hao.
An out-of-control Alpha and an Omega forcibly marked—this was the perfect evidence.
Who would care about the paternity of the child in Jiang Luoluo’s womb?
In the room, there would be nothing more than an Omega any Alpha could mark.
And the Huo family, having lost face in such a public setting, would surely seek retribution.
By then, neither Jiang Luoluo nor Ye Hao would escape unscathed.
Lin Zhiyi curled his lips into a faint smile.
Only he would remain hidden behind everyone else.
Clean, pure, and blameless.
No one would ever find him.
As Huo Zedong led Jiang Luoluo into the hall, he immediately spotted his stern father and his mother in a qipao.
Melodious music filled the air, but an unusual tension hung beneath the surface.
Jiang Luoluo didn’t know Huo Zedong’s parents, but when Huo Zedong stopped, he stopped too, his clear eyes following Huo Zedong’s gaze.
The couple appeared to be in their forties. The man’s face was stern, while the woman, arm-in-arm with him, smiled faintly in their direction. Both radiated an air of nobility.
Were they acquaintances?
Jiang Luoluo tilted his head to look at Huo Zedong, but instead heard Huo Zedong say, “Dad, Mom.”
Jiang Luoluo froze for a moment.
Huo Zedong glanced at the Little Omega beside him, gently patting his head as if coaxing a child. “Say hello.”
Jiang Luoluo blinked, his curled lashes fluttering like tiny fans. His voice was soft and sweet. “Good evening, Uncle. Good evening, Aunt.”
Madam Huo’s smile seemed strained. “This must be Luo Luo.”
Sir Huo nodded formally at Jiang Luoluo. “Yes, hello.”
Madam Huo nudged Mr.Huo’s waist from behind, and he waved Huo Zedong over. “Come with me for a moment.”
Madam Huo walked over. “Your father wants to talk to you. Go ahead.”
“Luo Luo, let them, Alphas handle their business. Will you keep Aunt company?”
Huo Zedong suddenly gave a faint smile, his sharp eyes softening slightly as his all-seeing gaze shifted from Madam Huo.
He ruffled the Little Omega’s hair. “Go on, sweetheart. Don’t be afraid.”
Jiang Luoluo nodded obediently, his large hand caressing Huo Zedong’s cheek. “Hubby will come and find you soon.”
After watching the father and son leave, Madam Huo subtly sized up Jiang Luoluo. “Come, let’s have some coffee over there.”
Two cups of coffee sat on the white marble table.
Jiang Luoluo sat demurely to one side, cradling his cup and answering Madam Huo’s questions one by one with earnestness.
“I hadn’t been out before. I just turned eighteen less than a month ago. My father told me to find Mr. Huo…”
“We met at a bar…”
“Our compatibility is 80%…”
“No, it’s not like that…”
Hearing a question, the Little Omega nervously explained, “I’m not dirty. I’m very clean. The doctor examined me…”
Madam Huo felt a bit like she was bullying Jiang Luoluo, whose clean and fearful expression made her uncomfortable. She took a sip of coffee to cover her discomfort and changed the subject.
“Do you usually go to the office with him?”
“I’ve been a few times. Mr. Huo works, and I just stay by his side…”
Madam Huo nodded inwardly. She set down her cup and pushed a bank card across the table with her well-manicured fingers, the emerald ring on her index finger flashing brilliantly.
“I know something about your situation. You’re a good child, but you two aren’t compatible.”
“Our Huo family needs children to inherit the family business, and we need more than one. You simply don’t meet our requirements for a daughter-in-law.”
“Take this money and leave. It’s enough to last you a lifetime.”
Jiang Luoluo lowered his eyelids and stared at the card on the table.
He knew it. Based on years of experience watching novels, movies, and dramas, this meeting was almost certain to end with the classic “Here’s X million, leave my son.”
He spoke slowly, his voice soft. “How much money is here?”
Madam Huo’s red lips curled into a mocking smile.
Seeing how obedient this Little Omega was, she’d almost felt a twinge of pity, thinking he wouldn’t be swayed by money.
But it was fine. If money could solve this, she’d be delighted.
Her emerald-ringed finger tapped the card and pushed it forward slightly, her voice haughty. “Ten million.”
The Little Omega’s eyes lit up, as if ignited by the card.
Madam Huo sneered.
*Just as expected.*
*Someone from a humble background is so easily impressed.*
The Little Omega quickly reached into his pocket, pulling out a pile of colorful bank cards, some even adorned with cartoon stickers, and dumped them onto the table.
His round, apricot eyes gazed at Madam Huo expectantly, his voice bright with excitement. “This is all my money! It adds up to over 260 million!”
“Aunt, I can buy 26 chances to leave your son with this!”
A radiant smile lit up the Little Omega’s delicate features as he pushed the pile of cards toward Madam Huo. “Besides this one, there are still 25 chances left~”
Madam Huo’s mouth twitched, and she froze.
On the other side of the room, the silent father and son clinked glasses and quietly sipped their champagne.
After a long pause, Huo Zedong finally raised his eyes to meet the man across from him.
“Father, Mother asked you to come, yet you didn’t even bother to pretend? Aren’t you afraid I’d just leave if we kept sitting here in silence?”
Mr.Huo’s voice was slow and deliberate. “You know the truth. What’s the point of pretending?”
The two men, their faces bearing a striking resemblance, exchanged a knowing smile.
Huo Zedong’s phone buzzed twice. He glanced at the message.
Mr.Huo looked up. “Leaving already?”
Huo Zedong lifted his eyelids, his indifferent gaze tinged with undisguised ruthlessness and mockery.
“The real show is about to begin.”
“After all the effort they’ve put into this performance, it would be a shame not to watch. Wouldn’t that be a terrible waste of their hard work?”
📣 “Jiang Luoluo just slammed down 260 million worth of glittery bank cards like UNO reverses—at least I deserve a Ko-fi for translating the best plot twist since sliced drama.”
🚨 Support now, or I might start whispering sweet nothings to your wallet like Luoluo does to Huo Zedong.
