Chapter 255 - 255 - Meeting The Step Father / Brother-in-law

"Yes, mum I'm pregnant," Xia happily said to her, Yukiya woodenly nodded.

"How, when, who, he?" she pointed to Aotian.

"Mum, don't make me blush," Xia snuggled against Aotian hiding his blushing cheeks.

"I can't believe this.... I think I feel faint. Come Xia, let's go up," Yukiya held her forehead.

Xia nodded and swam to her, but Aotian gripped his hand. "I will carry you. You have precious treasured in you after all," he smugly smirked at her and jumped on board.

"I can't handle that smug face anymore." Yukiya gritted her teeth.

"Even I can't," Pricilla said with a growl.

"Why do you.... oh," Yukiya stopped mid-sentence realising who she was talking to. This woman is her alleged grandmother. She looked so young, even younger than her. 'How did she maintain herself so well?,'

On the other hand, the old Mer panicked inside. 'oh god, she is looking at me. Should I wave? No, I think I should smile,' she stiffly smiled with her lips twitching.

Yukiya's frown deepened. 'why is she smiling so creepily... anyway, I'm out,' she jumped onto the boat with taking a second look.

Pricilla pouted.

"I think you just got rejected," Yin Long laughed out loud and jumped on board as well, leaving the old Mer to wallow in her misery.

Long Ki ran to Yukiya with a worried expression. "What's happened? Why did you jump down?" his sight went over to wet Xia. "Who is this?"

"My son!" Yukiya proudly pulled him close.

"No, he is my mate!" Long Aotian shouted with a frown.

"He is my son first stupid," Yukiya humped at him and pulled Xia over to Long Ki. "Darling meet my baby son Xia and Xia meet my... my lover~" she shyly whispered.

"Lover!! Mum, you have a lover! Oh, my god. Hi, I'm Xia. I'm so happy to meet you daddy!" Xia happily hugged Long Ki, for which he chuckled and hugged back.

"oy, oy, oy, he is not your father. He is your brother-in-law," Long Aotian ran over and hugged him as well. "Brother in law, say it Xia,"

Xia was quite perplexed by this. "Long, but he is my daddy,"

"No, he is my brother, so he is your brother-in-law," Aotian happily whispered to him.

"Hey don't teach my son wrong. Xia, he is your father!!" Yukiya immediately joined the family hug.

Long Ki who was stuck in between two forces as quiet confused. "umm... Xia can just call me anything he wants to."

"No, he should call you brother law, Long Ki," Aotian shouted.

"No father, say father!!" Yukiya glared at the golden dragon. "Don't test me, dragon. He is my son I can deny your pursuit any time I want," she whispered so softly that Xia did not catch her words.

Long Aotian gritted his teeth. "He is with my child you can't stop us mates getting together,"

Xia blinked at them confusedly. "Brother Ki, is it okay if I call you that?"

"Yeah, nice to meet you," Long Ki smirked at the little crayfish. "You are cute, as Yukiya said."

Xia smirked widely suddenly he felt a small thing hit his shin. Glancing down, he found a small red ball rolling and hitting him. "What is this?"

"That's your sibling," Long Ki lovingly kissed the little red egg and handed it to the stunned Xia. "we have yet to know his gender but i'm thinking it will be a boy,"

Xia softly caressed the jelly like membrane. "Hi little one. It's your brother here,"

The egg wiggled happily, hearing his voice.

"Wow, I think he heard me."

Yukiya hugged them both. "He can hear and see as well. But I heard it takes a long time for Mers to hatch,"

"He is a Mer?"

"Your mother is a Mer," Long Ki whispered, hugging his mate close.

"ohhhhh so mommy you are the one Grandma tail, Pricilla was talking about. The long-lost grandchild!"

"Pricilla? Who..... oh, that white-haired mer. I heard she is my grandmother. How did you meet her, by the way? How did you escape your kidnappers?"

"That's a long story,"

Xia calmly sat down next to Aotian and explained everything that happened in that ship.

"They... they bound you with a heavenly sealing rope! How dare that Oli? I will tear him to shreds!" Aotian shot up in fury.

"But I don't think he is too bad. It's Hua Jung that I hate the most." Xia held Aotian's hand softly. "Aotian, let's not fight anymore. I am with a child, and I want you close to me. Let's go to distant lands and stay there for a while. That modern realm can also work."

"Wait, why are you all planning to leave? You all have to come back to the heavens realm. Like Ki and Yukiya has to have their marriage scheduled and you both have to as well," Yin Long, who remained silent till now intervened.

"Mum," Long Ki blushed. "We... we can have the wedding later."

"Stupid son, you have a kid now. Give that child a legitimate title." She chided.

Long Aotian also stood up. "Xia, let's get married too. If they get married first, then my brother will become your father. Let's marry before that!!!"

Xia smirked. "What took you so long to ask me this, huh? I was waiting,"

"Wait, you were ready to marry me even before all this." Aotian pulled Xia closer and peered into his eyes.

Xia gently cupped his face and kissed his supple lips. "I was ready the day under the water fall. Do you remember how underwater we..."

Aotian swiftly kissed his lips, silencing any more lewd words from escaping his mouth. "Mum it's settled we both are marrying first,"

Yukiya cleared her throat loudly, glaring at him. "I didn't give consent yet,"

Xia ran over to her and hugged her shoulders. "Mum, can I marry him please. I love him so much,"

"Why that bozo? Xia your taste in men is so.... fine, you can marry him. But if he even hurt a hair on your body, I will crush him with my tail," she glared at the golden dragon who was blushing like a virgin maiden.

"Thank you, mother-in-law!!" Aotian shouted cheerfully.

Watching this exchange, Yin Long sighed loudly. "wow, their relationship is so messed up,"
