Chapter 05.2  – He Yuan, you can’t treat me like this

Kindly read this novel at https://secondlifetranslations.com/novel/pheromone-scam/

It was a good thing that no one from the direct bloodline of  Fu family was involved. As for the other younger generation members, as long as Fu Sheng scolded them a bit, someone would take care of them on his behalf.

“The business of raw jade materials ends here,” Fu Sheng casually declared his decision.

Fang Gaomin felt an ache in his abdomen along with a pang in his heart. That was a huge profit, and to cut it off so abruptly was truly painful. But he understood that Fu Sheng’s words were final.

Fu Sheng closed his eyes and tapped the armrest of the chair intermittently. He wondered about the case of the border shooting, which had already settled and couldn’t be overturned. What did the person behind Wang Yuanyao plan to do? Who made the anonymous report?

Fang Gaomin replied, “That was when He Xingwen and the others were present. I was afraid of causing a fuss by saying too much.” He took two steps forward, earnestly pleading, “Even if you don’t trust me, you should at least learn from the lessons of others.”

Mentioning the lessons of others, Fu Sheng’s fingers involuntarily paused.

Fang Gaomin’s voice remained calm. “Isn’t my brother’s example enough?”

Fang Gaomin had an older brother who was five years older than him. He was a prodigy, groomed by the family to be the successor. If nothing unexpected happened, he would lead the Fang family to new heights. Unfortunately, everything was destroyed eight years ago.

Eight years ago, Fang Ji fell in love with a beta, defying the elders of the Fang family. The two sides reached a point of estrangement and became enemies until the elders of the Fang family found an omega with pheromones highly compatible with Fang Ji.

Fang Ji quickly abandoned the pregnant beta and married the omega, starting a new life in the south to build his political achievements. No one knew when he would return.

“Wasn’t my brother’s love back then resolute and tragic? He professed his love for betas and was willing to leave the Fang family and establish his own household. But as soon as the omega appeared, he immediately abandoned his wife and child, controlled by pheromones, deeply in love with the omega, and coldly treated the beta who came to him.” Fang Gaomin sneered. “My brother struggled at first too, but once the omega’s pheromones s*duced him, he didn’t care about anything else. At that time, he even had a child with that beta.”

“Fu Sheng, believe me, making a decisive decision is the best course of action. You don’t want He Yuan to end up like that beta of my brother’s, in a miserable state. If you continue to hesitate between the two, sooner or later, you will unconsciously favour the omega, unwilling to see the omega get hurt. You will coldly abandon the beta, feeling that he is a nuisance and fearing that his presence will harm your beloved omega. At that time, He Yuan will suffer even more.”

“Fang Ji was blind and foolish. Don’t compare me to him.” Fu Sheng snorted disdainfully. “He Yuan is not an ordinary beta, and I won’t let him become like that.”

Even so, Fu Sheng didn’t particularly reject the presence of He Beijia. He still chose to stay with He Beijia because He Beijia’s presence and his pheromones were definitely more advantageous than disadvantageous to Fu Sheng.

That’s what Fang Gaomin thought. As long as Fu Sheng didn’t reject He Bei Jia’s closeness, it was good enough. Fortunately, in Fu Sheng’s heart, the weight of power mattered more.

After about ten minutes, Fang Gaomin’s communicator rang.

He glanced at it and said to Fu Sheng, “He Beijia is here.” Before Fu Sheng could question him, he explained, “He Beijia had ordered a few pieces of jadeite materials from me before, and he came tonight to inspect the goods. Should I let him in?”

Fu Sheng didn’t mind and didn’t care about Fang Gaomin’s little schemes involving He Beijia.

He Beijia quickly entered the room, his eyes passing over Fang Gaomin and directly falling on Fu Sheng. It seemed as if countless stars had descended, exposing his n*ked and evident affection. “Fu Sheng, why are you here?”

Fu Sheng didn’t respond. He Beijia was used to his taciturn nature and consciously sat in the seat closest to Fu Sheng. “Aunt complained that you left without saying a word. I told her you had important matters to attend to, and I thought we wouldn’t have a chance to meet for a few days. I didn’t expect to see you so soon. What a coincidence.”

While He Beijia was speaking, he exchanged a glance with Fang Gaomin. Understanding his intention, Fang Gaomin quietly left, leaving them alone.

At the back entrance of the jade shop, Wang Yuanyao sent out a modified text message and quickly deleted it afterwards.

Around the same time, He Yuan received a picture from an unknown number. The pixels were somewhat blurry, but he could make out the background and the two people in the photo. It was a dimly lit room, and the two people were intimately close, creating an atmosphere of sensuality and ambiguity. Fu Sheng’s features appeared gentle.

***

At 5 o’clock in the morning, Fu Sheng returned with the morning mist, only to find He Yuan sitting on the couch, having not slept all night. The ashtray was filled with cigarette butts, and the room was filled with the heavy smell of smoke.

Fu Sheng turned on the air purifier to freshen the air and took away the half-smoked cigarette between He Yuan’s fingers. He held his chin and looked at him for a while before saying, “Go take a shower and then get some sleep.”

He Yuan asked, “Where did you go?”

Fu Sheng replied, “There was an issue at Fang Gaomin’s jade shop that involved the younger generation of the Fu family. I went to handle it.”

He Yuan lowered his gaze and said, “I see.”

Fu Sheng asked, “Don’t you believe me?” He leaned in, intending to kiss He Yuan on the lips, but couldn’t bear the strong smell of smoke and kissed his corner instead. “Stop smoking in the future, it’s not good for your health.”

As a military personnel, Fu Sheng never smoked due to the requirement of passing health examinations. However, He Yuan smoked heavily, and later had some problems with his throat and lungs. Fu Sheng became angry, and He Yuan started to quit smoking. Initially, he managed to reduce it to one or two cigarettes a day, but judging by the cigarette butts in the ashtray, he probably smoked two packs.
