"Hello grandpa, am a little tired, but I am doing well", Kang Lei said, making his way pass the front door to the table.
"The traffic was terrible in the inner city, I was late to class after dropping BoJing off". Kang continued.
"Oh, I heard on the news there was some sort of accident not too far from here, some guy was found dead, but they didn't say the cause of death, I tell you the world's going to crackers these days, back in my time people used to value each other" grandpa Chong bewilderedly said while taking a seat.
"Grandpa Chong, I don't think back in the days would have been so good for everyone, the government just about changed some laws regarding omegas and not so long ago started giving financial assistant aid" Kang Lei voiced.
It's true that up till recent years omegas was and are still treated discriminately, Kang Lei witness first hand how hard the system was against omegas, there was also little justice done when they reported unfair treatment, even rape was difficult to report or often times not taken seriously. With the increase of omegas being born, the government was somewhat forced to implement changes to its corrupt justice system, and even that came with multiple loopholes.
Kang Lei's mind slipped back to a period in his life he wishes to never remember, and a solemn feeling took him over, which grandpa Chong recognized.
"Yes... that's very true... am sorry to say this but with all the hardships that omegas have to go through, it makes me more at peace that my Lili was born a beta... otherwise I would be worried sick about when she goes into heat and how she would protect herself" grandpa Chong affectionately and apologetically state.
"This I am in agreement with grandpa, though am an omega myself, am happy our BoJing is an alpha" Kang Lei said with mixed feelings.
"I would have been the best omega daddy, I would've proved omegas are people too" BoJing chimed in while still stuffing is face.
This is one of the few times Kang Lei gets to see is silly childish behaviour, and it warmed his heart, both Kang and grandpa Chong laughed at the scene.
"Oh Kang Lie... isn't it your last year of being a senior, are you not going to be applying for any internships?" Asked grandpa Chong.
"Oh... yes, thanks for reminding me… Grandpa, I need to ask a favour, please"
Kang begged eyes pleading
"Oh anything son, do you even need to ask"
"Well, next week Tuesday I have an interview at the Lanxian estate, for the position of assistant chef. The only problem is the interview is at 2pm, will you be able to pick of BoJing from school for me?"
Pleadingly, Kang Lei asked, eyes hopefully looking at Grandpa Chong.
"Well of-course... haha! Here I was thinking it was something serious... I would do it more often if you weren't so stubborn" grandpa Chong as delightedly, before his face changed to a complicated expression
"But the Lanxian estate, do you mean Dominic Lanxian?, his estate"
Kang wasn't too sure so didn't know how to answer "I believe so, but grandpa how do you know about Dominic Lanxian, and who is he?"
Grandpa Chong jaw dropped how could Kang Lei not know Dominic Lanxian, the whole country even unborn babies is terrified of this man.
"Kang Lei please tell me you're joking, he's a well-known business tycoon, he's a very private man so few have seen him face to face, and everyone who's worked with him says he is meticulous and his dominating aura alone without the use of his pheromones is enough to send you to shaking in your boots" grandpa Chong palms was on the table, and he was talking fast in an enthusiastic voice, which could be mistaken as admiration when he spoke of Dominic Lanxian.
Kang Lei was now a little concerned, but I hoped that seeing he will be working in the kitchen area he shouldn't really come in contact with Dominic, so it shouldn't be something He needs to worry about... right?.
"Grandpa, you sound like you admire him... he-he!" Kang Lei Laughed awkwardly.
Grandpa Chong hit his palms on the table and continued enthusiastically.
"I sure do, I have never seen or heard of him being in any of those scandals you keep hearing about.
You know these higher ups always bed hoping, but from what I heard he's extremely handsome, and he's a hard maybe impossible one to hold down, I heard that no matter who tires to seduce him, they have never succeeded, I would love if my Lili to bring someone of his standing home".
Grandpa Chong was beaming just talking about Dominic Lanxian, one could tell he highly regarded and respected this man, Kang Lei said nothing, well rather uninterested in a man that he knows will never look his way, if those of his standing was failing to seduce such a high-powered man, he would definitely be in a negative percentile. Right now he needed to get this job because that would be beneficial for both him and BoJing, daydreaming about Dominic Lanxian will just have to wait.
