“Guess what?” Lu Mingfei rubbed his eyes and complained, “I was almost blinded by the ‘Heart of the Ocean’!”

"It's a bit too flashy." Old Tang also looked at the ceiling and said, "They don't care about the lives of single people at all!"

"In fact, I had this idea a long time ago, but I never had the right opportunity to buy this thing for you. Today I can finally give it to you." Xia Mi placed the box flat on Chu Zihang's outstretched hands. She lifted the lid and pointed at the things inside. "Here, this is for you, Chu Zihang."

Clothes, black clothes, to be precise, a Zhongshan suit... but not an ordinary Zhongshan suit.

A straight waist, three neat rows of buttons, and gilded embroidery running through the left and right cuffs and shoulders to draw an ancient dragon... The workmanship of this dress is also very delicate, or to be more precise, it is very formal. Wearing it makes you feel like you are going to a wedding.

It is indeed impossible to be as expensive as Chu Zihang’s jewel necklace, but it is also very expensive. At first glance, it is a custom-made style from a craftsman who specializes in making Zhongshan suits.

"Every time I hug you, I secretly measure your chest, waist and body length. We hug each other quite often, and I know your size very well, so it is impossible for it to not fit." Xia Mi's slender fingers gently pressed on the clothes, "Don't try it today, I bought it for you to wear directly when the time comes."

"When the time comes." Chu Zihang looked at the clothes in his hands and murmured these words in a low voice.

Even if you are stupid, you should know when this outfit was prepared...

wedding.

Chapter 1144: Confessing Xia Mi's Identity

It turned out that before today, the girl had already started preparing for their wedding silently. However, before today, Chu Zihang and his family had never formally mentioned this topic. As a girl, Xia Mi did not mention this topic either, nor did she have the position to give this gift.

But today is the best time. Chu Zihang's father is back, and his best friends have gathered at his house. At the family dinner, they have received the recognition of Chu Zihang's parents.

Parents’ orders, relatives and friends gather together, and the love is deep.

Although Xia Mi could do very little about this matter in the past, she couldn't help but look forward to how Chu Zihang would look wearing this outfit.

In other words, Xia Mi has been looking forward to Chu Zihang wearing this dress at their wedding... She is looking forward to marrying Chu Zihang, looking forward to Chu Zihang standing in front of her in the dress she chose, in front of relatives and friends and with everyone's blessings.

She looked forward to completing the most important ceremony in her life with this man.

This is an idea that Jörmungandr, as a dragon, could never have. When dragons look at human marriages and rituals, they only think of them as childish and self-deceiving formalities. This self-proclaimed romantic behavior actually has no binding force at all, just like humans looking at the covenant behavior of wild beasts, they only think it is low-level and ridiculous.

But when Xia Mi was really in it, she found that it was completely different. She was almost immersed in it. Only then did she realize how ignorant it was to think that she was so superior and arrogant when she was a dragon. She had never experienced other people's lives and just denied them with her own ideas. Who was the one deceiving herself?

"Thank you, Xia Mi." After a moment of hesitation, Chu Zihang slowly took the clothes from Xia Mi's hand and closed the box carefully.

Xia Mi looked at Chu Zihang's usually expressionless face, which was now slightly moved. Even though he only said a simple thank you for the gift, Xia Mi didn't think that Chu Zihang was just being perfunctory, nor did she think that Chu Zihang only said "thank you" because he couldn't speak.

This was the boy she had chosen, so she accepted all of his looks and personality. She knew that for her, this boy had expressed to her the most affectionate words and love he had ever shown her in his life in just a few seconds.

So what else can we ask for?

Her boy is not stupid nor is he dumb at all, and she loves him just like that.

"Chu Zihang, I love you." Xia Mi leaned towards Chu Zihang gently, her face was infinitely close to Chu Zihang's face, until their lips slowly touched each other.

On the other side of the room, Old Tang had his hands on Lu Mingfei's arms, almost twisting his sleeves into a knot.

"I hate them, Mingming, I hate them so much." Old Tang stared at Xia Mi and Chu Zihang, and said to Lu Mingfei through gritted teeth, "These two bastards...these two guys, they flashed without caring about other people's lives! If I get choked to death, please help me call 1100."

"Isn't my name for you 120?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"It doesn't matter if I die, but this guy who is harmful to public order and morality must be arrested!" Old Tang shouted, "My eyes are about to be blinded by the light!"

"If you think it's too irritating, just don't look at it. Aren't you asking for trouble?" Lu Mingfei sighed. He also glanced at the two guys who were already stuck together. "But junior sister and senior brother, you guys are really too much of a pushover. You can save such explicit content for your wedding. If you really can't control yourself now... then shall we go?"

"Let's go, let's go." Xia Mi moved her lips away from Chu Zihang's lips for a second, waved to Lu Mingfei, and immediately pressed them back.

“You guys…” Lu Mingfei also stared, seemingly shocked by the shameless behavior of this junior sister.

“Let’s go, let’s go. They’ve already chased us away, so why are we still here?” Old Tang immediately stood up and pulled Lu Mingfei and Eri with him. “Anyway, I don’t want to stay here any longer!”

"Mingfei, help me." Chu Zihang also moved his lips away for two seconds. He looked at Lu Mingfei and said, "Can you help me call daddy?"

After saying that, Xia Mi hugged his head again and kissed him several times before letting go.

Maybe this couple rarely kissed each other on a daily basis, and once Pandora's box was opened, they both felt a little... hungry?

"Damn, kissing in front of friends is fine, but kissing in front of parents?" Old Tang's eyes widened, a look of surprise on his face, "Are young people nowadays so extravagant?"

"Fuck you." Lu Mingfei kicked Old Tang. He looked at Chu Zihang and asked, "Is it about Xia Mi? Brother, are you going to tell Uncle Chu now?"

"We have to say it anyway, so why not take this opportunity to say it all at once?" Chu Zihang nodded and said, "I also want Dad to get rid of Odin's stigma as soon as possible. Whether he can accept it or not has nothing to do with whether it is said sooner or later."

"Brother, you are right." Lu Mingfei thought about it and nodded to Chu Zihang. Before he opened the door, he turned around and asked Chu Zihang, "Then I will go and call Uncle Chu for you now. Do you need me to give you a heads-up first?"

"No need." Chu Zihang shook his head, "I'll talk to dad myself."

Lu Mingfei nodded to show that he understood, and without saying anything more, he opened the door and left Chu Zihang's room with Lao Tang and Huili. In his heart, he couldn't help but think, with his senior brother's personality, when Uncle Chu came in later, he wouldn't just say "Your daughter-in-law is a dragon", right?

This statement may sound very abstract when applied to other people, but it is too normal when applied to Chu Zihang... Based on the way his senior brother thinks, Lu Mingfei thinks there is a high probability that he will play it straight.

But how would Uncle Chu feel? Shocked? Surprised? Frightened? Or unbelievable? The middle-aged man knew his son well, and should have known that his son was not the type to joke about such things, right?

But since my senior brother said that he didn't need my help with the vaccination, there was no need for me to say anything more… I just hoped that the middle-aged man who had just escaped from Odin's clutches wouldn't get scared and have a heart attack because of this.

It was at the corner of the stairs that Lu Mingfei saw Chu Tianjiao pacing back and forth.

"Uncle Chu." Lu Mingfei stepped forward and called out.

"Ah?" Chu Tianjiao was startled by Lu Mingfei's voice. He came to his senses and saw Lu Mingfei and others, then he said, "It's Mingfei."

"Yeah, Uncle Chu, what are you doing here?" Lu Mingfei looked at Chu Tianjiao's expression, which to be more precise was the look of a guilty thief.

Standing and wandering back and forth in the corridor of my ex-wife's house was a bit too suspicious.

"Oh no, I'm not looking for Su Xiaoyan." Chu Tianjiao waved his hand quickly and glanced at the second bedroom on the second floor subconsciously. "It's okay, I just ate a little too much and I'm climbing the stairs to help digest it."

“Oh, Uncle Chu, you want to look for your senior brother, right?” Lu Mingfei noticed Chu Tianjiao’s look and said, “Then go directly to his bedroom. Your senior brothers are looking for you too.”

"He...they?" Chu Tianjiao caught the word sharply.

"Yes, senior brother and junior sister." Lu Mingfei said, "It's Xia Mi, the pretty girl, your daughter-in-law."

"Ah, are they the only two in the room now?" Chu Tianjiao asked subconsciously, "What are they doing?"

"Eating people!" Old Tang said angrily.

"Eating people?" Chu Tianjiao was stunned.

"Yes, biting each other's lips and exchanging E. coli is extremely disgusting and extremely bad!" Old Tang spat fiercely, "Why don't you just avoid people!"

"Huh?" Chu Tianjiao was stunned.

“Don’t listen to this guy’s nonsense.” Lu Mingfei punched Old Tang and explained to Chu Tianjiao, “It was just a kiss. The kiss between the senior brother and junior sister was a little passionate, and this guy was a little jealous. Uncle Chu, go quickly. Senior brother has something to tell you.”

“What did you say?” Chu Tianjiao straightened his body and his expression subconsciously became nervous.

"That's right..." Lu Mingfei remembered what Chu Zihang told him, that he didn't need to help with the vaccination, and that he should talk to his father himself. But Lu Mingfei changed his mind and reminded him for the sake of the middle-aged man's heart, "Uncle Chu, be prepared. What I'm going to tell you is not a small... a big thing. It has something to do with you, him, and Xia Mi. Just be careful not to get scared."

After giving these few instructions, Lu Mingfei took Old Tang and Xia Mi downstairs. Old Tang was still cursing on the way.

"It's a big deal...it's a big deal..."

After Lu Mingfei and the others left, Chu Tianjiao kept muttering these two sentences. He walked upstairs with heavy and hesitant steps, and he looked a little crazy.

Lu Mingfei didn’t know that his well-intentioned “vaccination” made Chu Tianjiao even more uneasy.

Chu Tianjiao came to Chu Zihang's door, a black solid wood door. Chu Tianjiao stood in front of the door and swallowed. He didn't look like a father about to enter his son's room, but rather like a clerk who had made a mistake and was about to enter the leader's office.

"Ahem." Chu Tianjiao coughed twice symbolically in front of Chu Zihang's door, and then knocked on the door carefully.

dong dong dong.

The door opened silently. Xia Mi poked her head out of the door. Seeing Chu Tianjiao at the door, she quickly pulled Chu Tianjiao in.

In the huge bedroom, the middle-aged man, his son and future daughter-in-law sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

"Well, Mingfei said you had something to talk to me about, son?" Chu Tianjiao asked Chu Zihang cautiously.

"Yeah." Chu Zihang nodded and said, "There is something I must tell you, and I plan to tell you as soon as possible."

"Ah?" Chu Tianjiao seemed a little surprised. He looked at Chu Zihang, then at Xia Mi, and asked Xia Mi in a low voice, "How many months has it been?"

"How many months?" Xia Mi was stunned and subconsciously glanced at Chu Zihang, only to see that Chu Zihang also had a confused look on his face.

"You don't know how many months it will be, right? Did you just find out?" Chu Tianjiao rubbed his hands and said, "I understand, I understand. Young people are prone to accidents. This is human nature. Chu Zihang's mother and I had him in the same way. It's not a big deal. Anyway, your wedding has been finalized today, right? The only thing left is to consider the time. Let your stepfather worry about this. He cares about these things anyway. It's a good thing to have a grandson sooner."

"Grandson..." Chu Zihang and Xia Mi murmured a few words, and the expressions on each other's faces became somewhat interesting.

At this moment, they finally understood what Chu Tianjiao meant by "a few months"... Just tested? Who spread this rumor?

"Uncle Chu, who told you about this?" Xia Mi asked Chu Tianjiao while gritting her teeth.

"Ming Fei, I just ran into him on the stairs, and he said you have something to tell me, it's a big deal." Chu Tianjiao said subconsciously, "He also said that you just did that in the room... kissed, and said it was a little hot. Let me tell you, uncle has been through this before..."

"Dad!" Chu Zihang couldn't help but interrupt Chu Tianjiao. His face didn't look good. "It's not what you think. Xia Mi and I... don't have a child yet."

"No children?" Chu Tianjiao was stunned. "Then Ming Fei is kidding me, isn't he?"

"Senior Brother Mingfei, right? I'll remember you!" Xia Mi also gritted her teeth and said Lu Mingfei's name, with a rather ugly expression on her face.

Lu Mingfei was indeed taking the blame. It was Old Tang who first brought up the topic of kissing, and Lu Mingfei did have good intentions in giving Chu Tianjiao a heads-up, but he couldn't say directly what it was, so he could only express it vaguely. Who knew that Chu Tianjiao completely misunderstood.

"We will pay attention to this aspect. I don't want to tell you this, Dad." Chu Zihang said to Chu Tianjiao, "I want to tell you something else."

"What's the matter?" Chu Tianjiao asked curiously, with a slight regret on his face.

It seems that he actually wants to have a grandchild sooner rather than later.

"The mark that Odin left on you." Chu Zihang paused, "Xia Mi has a way to help you get rid of that mark."

"Can you solve Odin's mark?" Chu Tianjiao couldn't help but look serious. He looked at Xia Mi and asked, "Do you have a way to solve this thing? How do you want to solve it?"

After all, it was a trace left by a king. Could the half-bloods really have a way to deal with this thing?

"Use the White King's dragon bones." Xia Mi said to Chu Tianjiao.

"The White King's dragon bone?" Chu Tianjiao was stunned again. This word was a little unfamiliar to him.

"Well, Odin's mark is mainly an imprint left by mental power, and the White King's dragon bone contains powerful mental power. Although it is only a part of the dragon bone, it is a higher-level existence than the Dragon King after all." Xia Mi nodded and explained to Chu Tianjiao, "I will help you do this. I am more than 90% sure."

"Wait a minute." Chu Tianjiao waved his hands quickly. He felt that his worldview was under great impact. "Is the White King you mentioned the same as the White King I understand? Are you saying that you have her dragon bone in your hand? How did you get it? Can you use this thing?"

"Yes." Xia Mi nodded and said, "Dragons above the second generation have mastered the skills of using dragon bones."

"Dragons of the next generation and above?" Chu Tianjiao once again heard an extremely unfamiliar word.

Chapter 1145: Love No Longer Forbidden

"Xia Mi is not a human being." At this time, Chu Zihang spoke and suddenly said something to Chu Tianjiao.

"What did you say?" Chu Tianjiao was stunned. He thought Chu Zihang was scolding someone, but he didn't know why Chu Zihang would scold his future daughter-in-law out of the blue.

"Xia Mi is not a human." Chu Zihang repeated it again. He looked at Chu Tianjiao and said, "Xia Mi is a dragon."

“It’s not a human... it’s... a dragon?” Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Zihang, his temples throbbing and he felt his brain was twitching.

The other party was clearly speaking Chinese, and he could understand each word, but why couldn't he understand when they were put together?

"The King of Bronze and Fire, the King of Earth and Mountains, the King of Sky and Wind, the King of Ocean and Water, these are the titles of the four great kings of the dragon clan. You have heard of them all, right?" Chu Zihang narrated to Chu Tianjiao in a very calm tone, "Xia Mi is one of the kings of earth and mountains. She controls the power of strength and earth elements. She is a dragon, and the king of dragons. Her original name in the dragon clan is Jörmungandr. The giant python in Norse mythology describes her, but she rarely uses this name. We all call her Xia Mi."

Chu Tianjiao no longer knew what expression he should show. He didn’t even know how to understand what Chu Zihang said... Chu Tianjiao subconsciously wondered if today was April Fool’s Day or something, because these words sounded full of weirdness and absurdity to anyone who heard them.

But Chu Zihang's tone and expression were unusually calm, as if what he had just said was not a big deal like the Dragon Clan and the Dragon King, but something as matter-of-fact as the neighbor's brother next door was a boy in college.

Lu Mingfei’s guess was actually correct. His stubborn senior brother really went for a straight shot right from the start... a straight shot without any preparation.

The only thing left was to let Xia Mi perform a magic trick of turning into a living dragon for Chu Tianjiao on the spot.

Fortunately, Chu Tianjiao didn't have any heart disease, high blood pressure, cerebral hemorrhage or the like, otherwise he would have been so angry with this filial son that he would have been sent to the emergency room.

Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Zihang's face for a long time, then looked at Xia Mi a few times, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Xia Mi seemed obscure and complicated.

“Son, your father is no country bumpkin who has never seen the world. I know you are an honest and straightforward child. You would not tease your father with such things…” Chu Tianjiao paused and looked at Chu Zihang with an extremely complicated expression, “But… that is… this matter you mentioned… you know it, right?”

"Dad." Chu Zihang interrupted Chu Tianjiao's hesitation. His expressionless face looked unusually serious. "I'm not joking, and this is not a prank. Everything I said just now is true. I know it's hard for ordinary people to accept this, but Xia Mi and I feel that we both need to tell you because it also involves Odin and you."

"I..." Chu Tianjiao's expression became more complicated. His lips opened and closed several times, as if there was something he couldn't say.

"There are different individuals among dragons. Xia Mi is different from Odin." Chu Zihang shook his head and said to Chu Tianjiao, "Lu Mingfei knows about this, Caesar knows about it, and Eri knows about it, but only a few of us know about it. You are someone I can trust. Although it is hard to accept knowing this, Xia Mi and I hope to get your respect and blessing."

Chu Tianjiao opened his lips again, but still no words came out. After all, this incident was too shocking to him.

"It doesn't matter if you don't bless me, but I just hope that this matter won't be known to anyone else, especially Kassel Academy, because the secret party's hostility towards dragons will not change because of Xia Mi as an individual, or the relationship between Xia Mi and me." Chu Zihang held Xia Mi's hand and said to Chu Tianjiao in a serious tone, "Once the secret party knows about this, the final result will be war. I will stand on Xia Mi's side, and Lu Mingfei will also stand on Xia Mi and me. Our allies also include the eight Japanese snake families."

"You're worried that I might make a big fuss or spread the news because I can't accept it." Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Zihang and paused before saying, "So this is a warning? Or is it telling me how serious this matter is, and what kind of dire consequences will occur if I don't accept it or keep it secret?"

"No." Chu Zihang shook his head slowly. "You won't tell anyone about this, just like you've never told anyone about yourself. But if you can't accept this, I hope you'll just pretend you've never heard of it and forget about it. But we must help you erase Odin's mark."

Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Zihang and his son's slightly unfamiliar face. It's not that he and Chu Zihang were estranged... Maybe they really were estranged. After all, they hadn't seen each other for seven years. But in fact, this father and son were not very familiar with each other seven years ago. One of them was a pretender and the other was a taciturn person. Neither of them was willing to show their truest side to the other.
