The bright moon was obscured by dark clouds. In the fresh air of Yunxiang Private Mountain Villa, two lewd figures quickly descended the mountain.

Xia Shizhao followed Yu Shu, looking puzzled, and asked, "Why did you come out at this time?"

"We finally managed to get your mom to sleep, let's hurry up and get the paternity test done."

Yu Shu said in a very lewd voice.

Xia Shizhao was speechless. "Then tell me, what's the difference between us now and thieves?"

With his face covered and his entire body in black, he was acting suspiciously on the mountain under the moonlit night. He didn't seem like a thief, but rather someone who was dumping a corpse.

Xia Shizhao remained silent.

Yu Shu remained silent.

Unreliable elders.

An unreliable junior.

Both of them were internally complaining.

Yu Shu straightened her back, cleared her throat, and tried to save face. "Let's go, the car we booked is still at the foot of the mountain."

"I have a car..." Xia Shizhao said, then hesitated.

Realizing she had made a foolish move, Yu Shu took a deep breath and looked at Xia Shizhao: "Child, give your mother some face, let's just say we're going for a drive, okay?"

Xia Shizhao gave an OK sign, indicating that she should go ahead.

Upon arriving at the Jun family's hospital, Xia Shizhao and Yu Shu had their blood drawn and opted for expedited service, with results available in half an hour.

Two strikingly beautiful women sat outside, staring at each other. Many people, under the guise of passing by, secretly observed them.

A nurse appeared before them with a smile: "Ms. Xia, here are your test results."

After the nurse finished speaking, the two of them took the report at the same time.

Xia Shizhao swallowed hard, feeling a little nervous for some reason.

If not...

Yu Shu patted her shoulder from the side: "Don't be afraid. Even if it weren't for me, I would still treat you as my child. Xiao Tong has recognized you, so I love you because of you."

Xia Shizhao snorted slightly, "Even if you don't acknowledge me, I don't care."

"Hey, you brat."

The two of them opened it at the same time.

A very striking number: 99.9% blood relation.

"Haha, I knew I couldn't possibly be wrong."

After saying that, Yu Shu put her hands on her hips triumphantly and snapped her fingers. "I'll put this by the bedside and give Xiao Tong a big surprise when she wakes up in the morning."

"You decide what to do."

Xia Shizhao looked at the childish mother he had taken in, hesitated, and said, "Let's go back."

On the drive home, Xia Shizhao suddenly remembered to ask, "Does your mother know your identity?"

Yu Shu put her hands behind her head and said slowly, "I don't know. She only knows that I like swimming. I don't dare to tell her that I am a merman."

A hint of helplessness flashed across his face.

Xia Shizhao asked curiously, "Why?"

"Once the identity of a mermaid is exposed, it will be dangerous no matter who it is. Moreover, the outside world has a very bad opinion of mermaids. They sing songs to bewitch people and eat their hearts. I really don't know which despicable person spread this rumor and so many people believe it."

“There are still benefits, such as the mermaid’s tears, which contain a lot of energy,” Xia Shizhao said quietly.

Yu Shu scoffed, "Mermaids only shed mermaid tears at birth and death, which led to a large number of humans hunting them down. This caused the mermaids to flee to another planet and separate from other human races. They were originally creatures living on the same land."

Xia Shizhao shrugged. "That's right, so that's why you're with my mom."

Her gossipy nature began to stir.

“Your mother saved me, but she doesn’t remember.”

Yu Shu rested her chin on her hand, enjoying the evening breeze.

"I was six years old at the time. I was playing and ran away from the Mermaid Planet. I encountered human traffickers. I was stupid and was tricked into going to the auction house."

Your mother was also a fool when she was ten years old; she was easily fooled.

She was terrified but still tried her best to comfort me, standing in front of me like a tiny little thing protecting me. I was laughing so hard I almost died.

Although she was laughing, Yu Shu's eyes were filled with tears. "Back then, I was used to being arrogant and spoke without any mercy. I was beaten the hardest. If she hadn't stood in front of me, I might have been beaten to death before Mu Shang came."

Later, my people arrived and took me back to the Merfolk planet. I wasn't released until I came of age. Right then, I immediately went to find your mother's location and pursued her for three years, getting a lot of beatings from Dad along the way, hehe.

After hearing Yu Shu's silly, infatuated look, Xia Shizhao shook his head and sighed inwardly, "I can't bear to look at her."

It's true that love can make people lose their minds.

"Do you merfolk have the ability to locate places?"

Xia Shizhao asked curiously.

Yu Shu nodded and said, "Yes, when your mother rescued me, I kissed her cheek. We were able to locate her using our abilities through physical contact."

Do you know someone surnamed Qi?

Yu Shu's eyes were strange. "You've seen him before?"

Xia Shizhao nodded and answered truthfully: "One person came to see me."

"If so, it should be your older or younger sister."

Yu Shu touched her chin. "My full name is Qi Yu Shu, but Qi is not a common name in Star Alliance, so I removed it when I registered my identity."

"I see."

Xia Shizhao's brain went blank. She has sisters all over the Mermaid Planet?!

The one who doesn't seem to be quite right in the head is her sister. Thinking of this, Xia Shizhao hesitated, then looked at Yu Shu, who also seemed to be a little mentally challenged, and fell into deep thought.

Are merfolk really a type of fish?!

"Anyway, don't tell your mother that I'm a merman. I'll explain it myself later."

"I won't interfere, as long as Mom is happy."

Xia Shizhao stared straight ahead. She didn't care much about Yu Shu, but she did care about Mu Tong and the others. Whether they loved her or not, she could feel it. This was the first time she had her own home, even if it wasn't perfect. Her mother was clumsy, but she sincerely wanted to be good to her.
