Half an hour later, Qu Moyu met You Xinghai at the police station.

Of course, You Xinghai firmly refused to admit the abduction. He just invited his son, who has a legal parent-child relationship, to take his grandson out for a meal. But there were too many things that he couldn’t explain along the way.

Qu Moyu sat aside. His sinister gaze never moved away from You Xinghai. Cold sweat broke out on You Xinghai’s forehead. Even when he pretended to be calm, in fact his heart was in chaos. The fluctuation of the pheromone in the room was very unstable. Every alpha present felt suffocated in the chest. The police reminded Qu Moyu twice in a low voice that if the pheromone could not be controlled, he had to go out.

The resort hotel is far from the city and the police in that area have already been dispatched. They will soon pass on what they learned about the situation and the monitoring of the hotel.

The hotel is a few years old and the monitoring pixels are not high. In addition, it was shot at night. It can only be seen that Shen Dai entered the hotel with You Xinghai’s bodyguard and left with two strange men. Although the whole process seemed to be unforced, it is difficult to judge what happened. At least, in the conversation between Shen Dai and Shen Qin captured by the corridor surveillance, it looked like Shen Dai was tricked by You Xinghai.

You Xinghai pointed at the monitor: “These two are not my people. Shen Dai left with them.”

“Please explain why Shen Dai went to this hotel first?”

“I’ve told you all. We made an appointment for dinner. He should have gone to the hotel first… to take a bath in the hot spring.”

Qu Moyu glared at You Xinghai fiercely and said coldly, “You Xinghai, do you know that you are in danger?”

You Xinghai gritted his teeth: “President Qu, do you want to listen to the truth? This is what Shen Dai asked for himself. He said that he would take the child away for a while to see if you are sincere to him.” In front of the police, he couldn’t say two more things. It is that the person planned to ask the Qu family for money together and that he was also anxious. He vaguely guessed that he had been tricked by Shen Dai, but who were the two people who got involved halfway? Who sent them? He thought of two possibilities. One is that Shen Dai united with Qu Moyu to punish him. But Qu Moyu’s anxiety didn’t seem fake at all and they made a police report. Second, it could be Qu Chengchen who did it. After all, there were only a few people who knew about this. But he didn’t reveal Shen Dai’s location and it was inappropriate to betray his allies without any evidence.

Qu Moyu would not mention Qu Chengchen. Firstly, his wife and child were in the hands of the other party, so he couldn’t take risks. Secondly, he had already guessed the purpose of Shen Dai’s actions. He would not let Qu Chengchen go and You Xinghai also couldn’t run away.

The police looked at Qu Moyu.

Qu Moyu took out his mobile phone and opened a WeChat dialog box: “Mr. You, you have sent messages, phone calls, appointments to meet up with my father and me many times. You even asked to borrow money from us. Sometimes your words look full of anger, implying that you will scheme against us. Now I have a reasonable suspicion that you kidnapped my omega and my child for the purpose of extorting me.” He showed the police his phone, “I have a lot of evidence like this that I can provide to the police.”

Xinghai angrily said: “Nonsense! We had cooperated before and we had become in-laws. What is the problem with me asking you to borrow money? How could I abduct him and blackmail you? Shen Dai is my son, Qiuqiu is my grandson. Why do I have to kidnap them?”

“Where are they?!” Qu Moyu’s eyes flashed fiercely, “They left in your You family’s car, and now they’re gone!”

You Xinghai’s face was extremely ugly.

The policeman said, “Mr. Qu, please sort out the relevant evidence and provide it to us.”

“Any clues now?” Qu Moyu asked.

“The car they were in had a fake licence plate. The surveillance couldn’t track it. It’s under investigation now.”

Qu Moyu held his mobile phone. Of course, he hoped that the police could find Shen Dai as soon as possible. He also used his own strength to find him. But the effect is probably not very big. If Qu Chengchen dares to do something, he must already have a careful plan. He is waiting for Qu Chengchen’s next call.

You Xinghai was detained and Qu Moyu planned to leave after completing the report. When he walked out of the office, he saw Shen Qin waiting outside the door.

Shen Qin was wandering anxiously. After watching Qu Moyu and You Xinghai come out with the police one after another, he was about to pounce excitedly: “You Xinghai, you bastard! You just don’t like me but if you hurt me, just hurt me. Not my son!” He usually speaks softly, even with a bit of pretentious gentleness. But at this time, his face is full of twisted hatred like crazy. If the police didn’t stop him, he seems to really want to pounce on You Xinghai for flesh and blood.

You Xinghai blushed in shame for a while. He was once a well-known entrepreneur after all. But now his family is in bankruptcy. His company is bankrupt. And he may be charged with abduction and extortion. The most embarrassing moment in his life is nothing more than this moment.

“You Xinghai, you must die! You must die!” Shen Qin was still scolding.

Qu Moyu walked out of the police station with a sullen face and saw a white halo on the horizon. The darkness of the dawn was being dispelled by the rising light. He didn’t realise that a night had passed. The night was neither short nor long. His heart seems to be in someone else’s hands at every minute.

Cheng Ruoze followed him: “Mr. Qu, I have already checked the brand that Shen Gong mentioned. It is a high-end maternal and child brand. There are five specialty stores in the city. It’s done.”

“Contact the agent of this company and expand the search scope to surrounding cities.”

“Of course.” Cheng Ruoze hesitated, “Do you want to provide this clue to the police?”

“Not for now. If you found him, you still can’t cause Qu Chengchen to be alarmed.”

“Yes.”

When he returned to the apartment, it was already dawn. The property had pulled down a warning line to warn of falling objects. The floor-to-ceiling windows’ damage was too large and needed to be customised to be properly fixed.

Qu Moyu went upstairs and looked at the living room, which was obviously missing a lot of things. Although it had been cleaned up, the mess from a few hours ago could still be traced.

The nanny was using a vacuum cleaner to dispose of the glass shards on the ground. Seeing Qu Moyu’s return, there was a hint of fear in her expression. She quickly turned off the vacuum cleaner, for fear that the noise would annoy her employer. After seeing such power, no one can remain calm.

Qu Moyu didn’t look at her. He went straight into Shen Dai’s room and closed the door.

The house is clean and tidy. There are not many personal belongings. A notebook and a pen were placed neatly. Qu Moyu knows that this is not cleaned up by the nanny, but it was Shen Dai’s own habit. Shen Dai’s office and test bench are all like this. Qiuqiu’s things were well-organised. The integrity and rigour of a scientific researcher are displayed everywhere in his life.

He slowly sat on Shen Dai’s bed and then slowly collapsed as if he had lost his strength. His tall nose was sunk into the soft quilt. He closed his eyes and felt himself surrounded by the faint scent of Sen Dai’s pheromone. He was cold and restless but now his heart seemed to be comforted.

He remembered that the year he separated from Shen Dai, he had also done the same thing.

At first, he was angry and couldn’t accept Shen Dai’s silent departure. He arrogantly thought that Shen Dai would not be willing to leave him. He even more arrogantly thought that even if Shen Dai left, he shouldn’t feel sad about it. His favourite bed partner had become a trouble for him so he should not be nostalgic.

But after a day.. And then two days… three days… a month, two months, three months… there was a hole in his heart. After Shen Dai left, his heart was constantly torn apart. The hole was so big that he could no longer ignore it no matter how restrained he was. Because it hurt too much. There was a person who he couldn’t get rid of from his mind every day. But in reality, he couldn’t be seen, heard, smelled, or touched. The torture similar to cutting off his flesh with a dull knife was indescribable.

So one night, he really couldn’t help it. He read the WeChat chat records between him and Shen Dai in just a few pages countless times. He secretly went to the guest room where Shen Dai stayed, trying to find the trace of that omega, to search for the ephemeral fragrance that he longed for and couldn’t find the traces anywhere. However, the guest room was cleaned too much. He could only find the bedding and clothes that Shen Dai had used in the cupboard and smelled the dull pheromones through the smell of detergent. At that time, he felt stupid and shameful. He was unable to imagine that he would do such a thing. He could only tell himself that everything was because of the ‘mark’. Although the connection with Shen Dai in his body had disappeared, the psychological ‘mark’ was still at work.

He used this to explain the day by day intense yearning.

After that night, he knew that he couldn’t bear it anymore. It had been half a year since Shen Dai’s departure. He had already defeated Qu Chengchen. The high-saturated work had ended in stages and there was nothing left to distract him. What would he do? After thinking of Shen Dai every night, he decided to look for Shen Dai.

But after finding Shen Dai, he did so many stupid mistakes again. When he knew that they had a child together, the joy came to his heart instantly. But he had to suppress it by his habit of being good at weighing. He struggled. He used the method of attacking inwardly and outwardly, injuring himself and his loved ones. The process of realising his feelings for Shen Dai was also a process of fighting himself. He refused to surrender to an omega countless times. He refused to surrender to his feelings. Because in his cognition, that was the behaviour of the weak, but in the end, he found that he is only a mortal. He is only a real strong man when he dares to face his own weaknesses.

He experienced the feelings of being peeled off so painfully.

He tightened his fists on Shen Dai’s quilt and put it over his head, calling that name repeatedly in his heart.

At this moment, his phone rang.

He immediately grabbed the phone and answered the call.

A voice processed by a voice changer came from the receiver, telling him a time and address. It also warned him not to call the police and to go alone.

In fact, he can guess what Qu Chengchen wants. It depends on whether Qu Chengchen has the courage to say it or not in front of him.
