Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before slaying the dragon

Chu Tianjiao's next questions were really outrageous. Almost all of them revolved around Xia Mi. He even asked about Xia Mi's zodiac sign, constellation and blood type... Lu Mingfei didn't know these things either, so how should he answer?

Besides, after all, a hybrid's body has half human blood, so it's normal to be able to test its blood type, but do pure-blooded dragons really have the concept of blood type?

What type is the black king? "Black" can be shortened to "B" type, but what about the white king?

Chu Zihang was still a little reluctant to get up, so Lu Mingfei simply put Chu Tianjiao's bed and Chu Zihang's bed together, so that the father and son could now be closer.

"Dad, are you looking for me?" Chu Zihang asked Chu Tianjiao.

"Yeah." Chu Tianjiao nodded, looking at Chu Zihang with eyes full of expectation, "I heard from Mingfei that you have a very beautiful girl as your girlfriend?"

Chu Zihang was stunned. He turned his head to look at Lu Mingfei and found that Lu Mingfei's eyes were deliberately avoiding him. Then he turned back to look at Chu Tianjiao, who had a look of confusion on his face.

"So this is what you were talking about just now?" Chu Zihang asked Chu Tianjiao.

“Yeah.” Chu Tianjiao nodded repeatedly, “Of course I have to ask about my son’s future life events. After all, she is likely to become the girl of the family in the future!”

"Well...so Dad, what do you want to ask?" Chu Zihang asked Chu Tianjiao.

"What's the name of that little girl?" Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Zihang and asked hopefully.

"So you guys talked so much just now, but you didn't talk about her name?" Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Tianjiao strangely, "Xia Mi, her name is Xia Mi."

"That's great." Chu Tianjiao clapped his hands and said, "Ming Fei said that there are no adults in the girl's family, only a not-so-bright brother. But the girl's personality is quite likable, and her bloodline rating is 'A'. She is the president of your Kassel College Freshman Fraternity. I also heard that you have been together for a year. Have you ever brought the girl home?"

"You... didn't even ask my name, but you talked so much?" This surprised Chu Zihang. He nodded and admitted, "Yes, what you learned is basically the truth."

"I also heard that your mother said at the beginning that she wanted to adopt the little girl as her sister?" Chu Tianjiao asked while holding back a laugh.

Three black lines suddenly appeared on Chu Zihang's forehead. He glanced at Lu Mingfei and saw Chu Tianjiao's teasing expression. At this moment, he finally understood why Chu Tianjiao laughed so hard just now... At that time, when he saw Chu Tianjiao's smile, he actually felt it was quite warm.

"Oh, Daddy was just joking with you, don't be angry, don't be angry, Mingfei didn't tell me these things, I asked your friends." Chu Tianjiao patted Chu Zihang on the shoulder, "Mingfei said that your mother likes the little girl very much, I can hear that, but I didn't ask, what is your father's attitude towards the little girl?"

Chapter 1107 Daughter-in-law-to-be

"My..." Chu Zihang pursed his lips and swallowed the word "Dad".

"It's okay." Chu Tianjiao patted Chu Zihang's shoulder and showed him a relieved expression. "Although you are not that guy's child, he is indeed responsible for raising you and your mother. He treats you and your mother well. It's not too much for you to call him dad, whether at home or in front of me. I am not so tolerant."

"He hasn't met Xia Mi yet." Chu Zihang shook his head and said, "Because he is very busy at work, often in meetings or on business trips, he doesn't spend much time at home."

Chu Zihang still did not address Lu Tianming as "Dad" or "new dad" in front of Chu Tianjiao, but simply referred to him as "he".

"He knows about Xia Mi and my relationship, and he also knows that Xia Mi has been to our house, because my mother has a good impression of Xia Mi." Chu Zihang continued, "He simply asked about Xia Mi's family situation, and didn't say anything after knowing it. My mother told me that he told her that as long as Xia Mi and I really like each other, he has no objection. He values ​​a girl's character and personality more. The family doesn't need to be rich or powerful, because our family has everything."

"This guy is quite reasonable." Chu Tianjiao nodded slightly and commented with a serious face, "His values ​​are quite correct."

Looking at Chu Tianjiao's deliberately tense face, Chu Zihang also smiled for the first time.

"What? Are you making fun of your dad?" Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Zihang and asked, "You think a driver can understand anything, right?"

"You know that's not what I meant." Chu Zihang sighed helplessly.

“Hahahahaha, alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.” Chu Tianjiao pinched Chu Zihang’s shoulder, his peripheral vision falling on a girl in the room who occasionally glanced over here, “By the way, that girl does like you, right?”

"Who?" Chu Zihang was stunned for a moment, then he noticed Chu Tianjiao's eyes and looked in the direction Chu Tianjiao was looking.

In the corner of the hut, Susie and Chu Zihang looked at each other briefly, then turned their heads away hastily, like a little girl who was caught doing something bad and was avoiding the other person out of guilt.

"Susie?" Chu Zihang lowered his head slightly, and after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke, "Some people around me said so."

"Oh my, my silly son, why didn't you inherit this from me?" Chu Tianjiao held his forehead. "Do you need to hear other people tell you this? The girl's meaning is so obvious, anyone with eyes should be able to see it. Ever since I noticed her, she always looks at you every two minutes, and at least half of her attention is on you. Your dad is not blind or crazy, so doesn't this count as love? This counts as really liking someone, you know? You can feel when someone likes you."

Chu Zihang lowered his head, and pursed his knife-thin lips gently. This was the expression he often showed when he was a child listening to his parents talking about reason. After growing up, he almost never showed this expression in front of anyone.

“To be honest, this girl is pretty. She looks quiet and clean. You can tell at first glance that she is the type who will fall in love with someone and will always love them forever.” Chu Tianjiao said, “There are not many girls like this in the world, especially in this materialistic society. Girls like this are really rare and precious…”

"Dad, stop talking." Chu Zihang interrupted Chu Tianjiao for the first time. He shook his head at Chu Zihang and said to Chu Tianjiao in a very serious tone, "Susie has never told me about this, so whether in my mind or hers, if we don't talk about this, it's the same as not happening. At least that's what I think, and..."

Chu Zihang paused.

"And Xia Mi and I have a very good and firm relationship. Unless something unexpected happens... No, there won't be any accidents, so we won't separate. I won't consider this, and Xia Mi won't consider this either. I won't consider other girls either." Chu Zihang looked at Chu Tianjiao and said in an unprecedentedly serious tone, "So Dad, please don't say this again in the future."

"Oh, you know that's not what I meant." Chu Tianjiao sighed, and his tone became serious. "Dad knows that you and Xia Mi have a good relationship. It's not that I don't approve of Xia Mi. If you and your mother like her very much and are very satisfied with her, what opinion would I have? Besides, I heard that you and Lu Mingfei have good opinions about her. Of course I trust you. In fact, that's not what I wanted to express. Dad knows that you and Xia Mi have a good relationship. What I mean is that if you know that other girls are interested in you, it's best to make it clear to others."

Chu Zihang opened his lips slightly twice, as if he wanted to argue with Chu Tianjiao, but in the end he didn't say it.

Because Chu Zihang always felt that this was very strange. Even though he knew that the girl liked him, Susie and he had always been in a classmate and assistant relationship. Susie had never mentioned her feelings for him. If he took the initiative to talk about it, wouldn't it be too strange?

Chu Zihang is not a talkative person. Wouldn't it be even more embarrassing if he told the girl clearly about her secret crush on him?

"You like Xia Mi very much, right?" Chu Tianjiao looked at Chu Zihang and asked, "Do you think your relationship can never be broken up, and that no one else will interfere in this relationship?"

"Yes." Chu Zihang nodded, his tone quite firm.

"If I'm not mistaken, has Su Si liked you longer than Xia Mi?" Chu Tianjiao asked Chu Zihang again in a low voice.

"How did you..." Chu Zihang originally wanted to ask how did you know, but Chu Tianjiao had just proved his extraordinary insight. Besides, if he wanted to know, he could ask Lu Mingfei for confirmation. There was no point in asking this question.

“Well…” Chu Zihang nodded, acknowledging Chu Tianjiao’s words, “We knew each other when we were freshmen, and we often met in professional courses and the library. Later, we both joined the Lionheart Club, and I became the president of the Lionheart Club, while Susie and another man became my deputies.”

"So the relationship between you two is quite deep. Of course, Xia Mi's father, whom you like, also loves her, but now that I see this girl Susie, I still understand her." Chu Tianjiao said to Chu Zihang, "I won't ask whether you got along well before or why you don't like this girl. I just have one question."

"Son, do you think Susie is a good girl?" Chu Tianjiao asked softly.

After a moment of silence, Chu Zihang slowly nodded and admitted, "Yes."

"There aren't many girls in this world who like you and are wholeheartedly interested in you. Some love your looks, some love your talent, and some love your money... But I believe Susie definitely doesn't like you for these reasons. Her love seems very pure to me." Chu Tianjiao put his arm around Chu Zihang's shoulders. "Given her personality, she might keep this a secret for the rest of her life, and will probably continue to love you forever. A girl like that will probably only have one man in her heart for the rest of her life. If she doesn't speak up, and you don't speak up, her future relationships might be delayed because of this. Is that what you want?"

Chu Zihang thought about it seriously, then shook his head seriously.

"So son, do you know what to do?" Chu Tianjiao asked Chu Zihang softly.

"I understand." Chu Zihang nodded. He glanced at Susie and said, "I will make this matter clear to Susie, but before that, I will also discuss it with Xia Mi."

"Well, we should discuss it, otherwise it will be bad if there is a misunderstanding." Chu Tianjiao glanced at Chu Zihang teasingly, "I didn't expect that my boy is still a henpecked husband."

"She can't be considered a 'wife' yet?" Chu Zihang said seriously.

"I remember what you said." Chu Tianjiao slapped his forehead, "Have you discussed with your mother and Xia Mi when your son will get married?"

"marry……"

When Chu Tianjiao mentioned this question, Chu Zihang was silent for a while. It was not that he could not give an answer, but that he had really thought about this matter and discussed it with Xia Mi, but they only talked about this topic briefly and did not get a result in the end.

The reason why Chu Zihang and Xia Mi discussed this topic was actually because of Su Xiaoyan. Su Xiaoyan felt that the monotonous life every day was quite boring, and it might be quite interesting to have a child... and according to Su Xiaoyan's imagination, it would be quite cool for her to go out on the street with her grandson in her arms. There would probably never be such a young, beautiful and elegant grandmother in the world.

"It will definitely be after Caesar and Nono's wedding." Chu Zihang glanced at Caesar. "After the trip to Japan, Caesar invited me to be the best man at his wedding, and I agreed."

“Alas, what’s the point of being a best man at someone else’s wedding? If you want to be a best man, you should be the protagonist!” Chu Tianjiao educated his son with a bit of disappointment, “Let’s not talk about Caesar, Caesar is in the same grade as you, but Nuonuo is in the same grade as you. And there’s Lu Mingfei, who is a year younger than you, but he’s already married and now he can travel around the world with his wife. And there’s also that guy in your high school who is a year younger than you, there must be quite a few who are married…”

Chu Zihang glanced at Lu Mingfei helplessly. He didn't expect that Lu Mingfei had told all this to Chu Tianjiao. You know, sometimes the competitive spirit of parents in this regard can be really scary.

"At least you have to wait until you meet Xia Mi." Chu Zihang interrupted Chu Tianjiao's chatter, "Besides, Xia Mi hasn't even entered her sophomore year yet, and Kassel Academy has never had a precedent of freshmen getting married, except for marriages arranged by certain families."

"That does make sense. Even though my daughter-in-law is praised to the skies by others, I, your father, still need to meet her in person before I can say anything." Chu Tianjiao nodded. "By the way, why didn't you meet Xia Mi this time? Did you think this operation was too dangerous so you didn't bring her along?"

"No." Chu Zihang shook his head and said, "Xia Mi was assigned by the Executive Department to carry out a new mission."

"What mission?" Chu Tianjiao asked subconsciously.

"I don't know. It seems to be a confidential mission, and the mission period is quite long." Chu Zihang said truthfully.

"A long-term secret mission? That should be dangerous, right?" Chu Tianjiao asked Chu Zihang, "But you don't seem too worried about her."

"She...there's nothing to worry about." Chu Zihang shook his head and said very sincerely, "She is better than me."

"Stronger than you?" Chu Tianjiao was stunned. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't her bloodline rating 'A'? Can an 'A'-level bloodline be stronger than you after you have experienced that 'dragon blood baptism'? This is not just a polite remark, right? Oh, yes, I remembered that Lu Mingfei said that the bloodline rating of the little girl named Xia Mi seemed to be a little different?"

"It's a little different. She... is really amazing." Chu Zihang said carefully, his expression a little embarrassed. "It's hard for me to explain this to you. Xia Mi's situation... is a little special."

"Special? How special can she be? She can't be some 'artificial human', right? Like Astro Boy." Chu Tianjiao joked, "I, your dad, also had my own childhood. I still have Astro Boy comics in my drawer. But I'm just kidding. If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Wait until I see the girl in person. I want to see how mysterious and amazing she is. You guys are praising her like this."

Chu Zihang closed his mouth tightly. He thought that even if Chu Tianjiao was knowledgeable and experienced enough, he would be scared to death if he knew Xia Mi's true identity... Let alone an "artificial human", that girl is not even a "god". She is not the same as the "god" you have met before!

"Well, son..." Chu Tianjiao called out to Chu Zihang, and his tone suddenly became awkward.

Chu Zihang turned his head and saw that Chu Tianjiao's expression had become a little awkward. Before, when they talked about their father-son relationship and Xia Mi, Chu Tianjiao's tone was mostly teasing, but at this moment, his emotions seemed to be between shyness and fear, like a grown-up girl who was about to talk to someone about something difficult to say.

"You want to ask... about mom, right?" Chu Zihang whispered to Chu Tianjiao.

He actually didn't know Chu Tianjiao very well. It was not until today that he knew the man's past story. But as the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his father, and the same is true in reverse. If there is anyone in this world who can make Chu Tianjiao show a side similar to the shame and anger of a little girl, it is probably only Chu Zihang's mother... When Chu Tianjiao mentioned Su Xiaoyan before, he had not reached this level, but now his past has been revealed, his little house has been exposed, and all his secrets have been made public. Even the most shameless and tolerant man can't completely control his emotions, right?

"Mom has lived a good life these years. That man treats us very well. I heat milk for her every night. Aunt Tong is at home when I'm not around." Chu Zihang explained everything that happened over the years. "Mom sometimes invites a group of sisters to have a party at home. Sometimes she gets drunk, but she's safe at home and nothing unexpected happens."

Chapter 1108: Invited to the Wedding

"In terms of daily expenses, she is not restrained, but most of the time she buys useless little things and never buys big items. She doesn't have to worry about these things." Chu Zihang said to Chu Tianjiao, "But that man has never restricted her financially. He has always been generous with money and doesn't restrict Mom's private life."

"It sounds... pretty good." Chu Tianjiao was silent for a while, and finally only uttered this sentence.

Chu Zihang glanced at Chu Tianjiao's expression. No matter what happened seven years ago or what happened on the "Island of Death" even longer ago, Chu Tianjiao left everyone with the impression of being an extremely experienced, decisive, yet humane and principled special agent... But at this moment, Chu Zihang clearly saw on Chu Tianjiao's face that this man had once again become the same as before, the timid man who could do nothing but brag in front of his beloved woman.

Chu Zihang turned his head, his eyes flickering a few times. In his heart, he probably knew what Chu Tianjiao wanted to ask, but perhaps out of his manly pride, perhaps out of guilt for not seeing each other for many years, or perhaps because he wanted to maintain the dignity of a father in front of his son, he never asked the question that concerned him most.

Chu Zihang hadn't decided whether to mention what Chu Tianjiao cared about... He could see that Chu Tianjiao cared about it, and it must be very uncomfortable to keep it in his heart without saying it, but if Chu Zihang asked it out loud, what would be the difference between this and tearing Chu Tianjiao's self-esteem apart? And as Chu Tianjiao's son, if he asked it, it would only make Chu Tianjiao more embarrassed.

“Son, um, um…” Chu Tianjiao spoke again, hesitating, “Has your mother done that over the years… has she occasionally… Oh, not occasionally, it’s just… has she ever accidentally mentioned it…”

"In the first six months, he talked about it almost every day. Then the frequency gradually decreased, and in the last few years he hasn't mentioned it at all." Chu Zihang thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

“No, no.” Chu Tianjiao quickly waved his hands to deny, “I’m not referring to this. I’m referring to whether your mother has insomnia again in these years, and whether she still wakes up in the middle of the night and has nightmares.”

Chu Tianjiao's voice became smaller and smaller, and his expression became a little gloomy. Obviously, what he said at the moment was not his true thoughts... Chu Zihang had already told Chu Tianjiao about giving Su Xiaoyan hot milk and Su Xiaoyan's insomnia. How could he possibly ask whether Su Xiaoyan had insomnia and nightmares over the years?

What a person cares about most, even if he doesn't say it out loud, will come out of his eyes... Chu Zihang saw Chu Tianjiao's eyes. Since he could remember, he had never seen this man with such a lonely and lost look in his eyes, like a homeless stray dog.

"Dad, Lu Mingfei just mentioned something, I don't know if you still remember it." Chu Zihang suddenly said.

"What?" Chu Tianjiao's tone was still a little listless, as if he had not yet recovered from the blow.

"The existence of the Nibelung people who strayed into this city was secretly erased by Odin." Chu Zihang looked at Chu Tianjiao and said, "Those who have disappeared have all been forgotten over the years, even their acquaintances or close family members. It's as if they never existed. No one remembers them."

Chu Tianjiao was stunned.

"Dad, the same goes for you." Chu Zihang looked at Chu Tianjiao and said, "What I mean is, in the seven years since you became 'Odin', the only people in this world who still remember you are me and Lu Mingfei. Mom has long forgotten your existence. It's not because she no longer has feelings for you, or because she really doesn't remember you as a person, but because of Odin's ability to rewrite reality, you were deleted from her memory and replaced by something else."

Chu Tianjiao's eyes widened. At this moment, he finally understood what Chu Zihang meant to him... Chu Zihang knew what he wanted to ask from the very beginning, so Chu Zihang answered his questions seriously. Although he would feel lost or defeated because of this, Chu Zihang then told him that there was a reason why the woman he loved forgot him. It was not because she didn't love him or because she hated him and wanted to erase him from her life, but because of Odin. Odin was the source of all evil.

“Thank you.” Chu Tianjiao was silent for a long time, then he took a deep breath. His dark and defeated eyes now showed a look of relief. “In fact, there is no point in me dwelling on these things now. I hope your mother will let me go and let go of this unhappy past. I sincerely hope so, but I just can’t let it go in my heart. But this is just my selfish desire. Knowing that you and your mother are living a happy life is the most important thing for you and for me in reality.”

After Chu Tianjiao finished speaking, Chu Zihang fell into a brief silence. Although this man said that he was selfish, the core of his words was actually very selfless, and he has always done so... Not being able to be with the one you love is certainly a misfortune, but seeing Chu Zihang and Su Xiaoyan live a happy and prosperous life is also his happiness.

There are different kinds of happiness in this world. Some are family harmony, some are lifelong companionship, some are peace and joy, and some are silently watching over the lives of loved ones... It is impossible for people to achieve everything they want in their short lives, and there are always sacrifices and trade-offs in happiness.

For Chu Tianjiao, the safety and happiness of Su Xiaoyan and Chu Zihang are more important and more worthy of care than his own satisfaction and pleasure.

"Dad, can I ask you a favor?" Chu Zihang suddenly said in a low voice.

"What's the matter?" Chu Tianjiao asked subconsciously.

"On the day of Xia Mi and I's wedding, can you sit in... the chairman's seat of the wedding?" Chu Zihang raised his head, looked into Chu Tianjiao's eyes, and asked the request that had been hidden in his heart.

Chu Tianjiao was stunned. His face was completely frozen, and his eyes were fixed. Looking at the determined and hopeful light in Chu Zihang's eyes, all kinds of complicated emotions quickly spread in Chu Tianjiao's heart.

Sad, relieved, surprised, moved...

Chu Tianjiao never thought that the request Chu Zihang made to him would be such a thing... requesting his father to appear as the chairman of his wedding with his beloved girl. For other people, this could not even be called a request, but rather human nature and ethics. However, the situation of this father and son was too special. Chu Zihang's sincere eyes and words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Chu Tianjiao's heart hard.

It made his eyes red.

"Of course... of course I'm willing to agree..." Chu Tianjiao paused, suppressing his inner excitement and trying to think rationally. "But your father over there won't agree to such a request, right? He's a businessman and usually looks quite respectable, but just because he's a respectable man, he won't agree to such a request. Now your mother is his wife, and you are his son in name only. He and your mother should sit in the chairs at your wedding. If it were me instead, he would definitely feel embarrassed. Even if you choose a time when he's busy with business, respectable people like them would never miss their adopted son's wedding."

"Well, he's very good to mom. I didn't want to embarrass him like that." Chu Zihang shook his head and said to Chu Tianjiao, "But there's still room."

"There's still room?" Chu Tianjiao was a little confused. "What room is there?"

"According to traditional customs, there are four chairmen at the wedding, and the parents of the bride and groom are seated there." Chu Zihang said slowly, "But you know the situation of Xia Mi's family. None of her parents are here to attend."

"So you want to..." Chu Tianjiao widened his eyes. At this moment, he finally understood what Chu Zihang meant by inviting him.

Lu Tianming was definitely going to accompany Su Xiaoyan to attend his adopted son's wedding, and it was almost impossible for him to make concessions. However, Chu Zihang wanted Chu Tianjiao to attend his wedding as the chairman's guest, and Xia Mi happened to have two vacancies... This was probably the best of both worlds solution Chu Zihang could think of. Although Lu Tianming might still have some grudges about doing this, and although a respectable person like him would not bring it up in public, Chu Zihang could not take everyone's feelings into consideration.

He is Chu Tianjiao's son and has half of Chu Tianjiao's blood in his body. He doesn't want to make his mother and adoptive father unhappy on a day that deserves celebration, and he doesn't want his biological father to be absent.

"I'm sorry, you might mind, but this is the result of my discussion with Xia Mi, and it's the best solution I can think of." Chu Zihang said softly to Chu Tianjiao, "I started thinking about this a long time ago, almost since Xia Mi and I became more stable, because I don't believe you're dead. I've been looking for you all these years, even if the probability is very slim, I've thought about this situation."

"Lu Mingfei once told me that loving someone shouldn't just be written on paper, or just expressed in longing. If there's a chance, love should be expressed with words and actions." Chu Zihang spoke sentimentally for the first time, his tone a little awkward, "So I think, if I can find you, I hope you won't miss out on the important things in my future life... Sorry, I should have said it another way."

"I actually hope that you can be with me during the most important stage of my life." Chu Zihang looked at Chu Tianjiao's face and said softly.

Chu Tianjiao also looked at Chu Zihang, his expression still dazed. In his sight, the face of Chu Zihang in front of him and the face of the boy who often sat in the back seat of his car and didn't say a word in his memory gradually overlapped.

Chu Tianjiao had fought with the Dragon King, carried out many almost impossible tasks, traveled to many places and met many people... To be honest, his first half of life was richer and more exciting than the lives of most people in the world, but this was his first experience as a father.
