"Because he is my brother."
"Huh??? It doesn't look like it!"
Torurata whispered, "This is my twin brother."
"But he was so cruel to you, even plucking your scales, don't you hate him?"
"He's just sick. Actually, he used to be very good to me."
Seeing this scene, Zuo Qingya suddenly thought of Shao Lili.
"But he can't hurt you even if he's sick!"
"It's okay."
Zuo Qingya didn't know what to say when she saw this.
"Oh, by the way, what's your brother's name?"
"Jiao Axi".
"Jiao Axi?" Zuo Qingya thought about the word "jiao" and asked, "Um, Torulata, your brother wouldn't happen to be a jiaoren, would he?"
Torurata nodded. "Yes, my brother is a merman."
Zuo Qingya whispered, "Torulata, do all merfolk look like this?" She glanced at Jiao Axi as she spoke.
Torurata nodded. "Yes, she may not be pretty, but she's very strong."
"Alright then, but what exactly is wrong with your brother?"
"It's because of a woman."
"Because of a woman? And then what?"
"Then they didn't get together, so my brother ended up like this."
"You broke up, and you can't accept it?"
"Yes, I'm not really sure either."
"But why did he torture you?"
"My brother said it's because I'm a woman."
"Huh??? This is okay?"
Just then, Jiao Axi circled around behind Zuo Qingya, intending to launch a sneak attack.
Although Zuo Qingya was talking to Torulata, she did not let her guard down, because Zuo Qingya always felt something was strange.
How should I put it? Zuo Qingya felt that Torurata was not Torurata.
Zuo Qingya thought she was overthinking things, but to her shock, Jiao Axi and Torulata had actually merged.
Zuo Qingya exclaimed, "What the hell is this?"
After Sameshi and Torurata merged, they formed a new form. Half of them is Torurata, and the other half is Sameshi.
"What exactly is going on?" Zuo Qingya was completely baffled by the current situation.
"Torurata, what on earth is going on?"
"Zuo Qingya, I don't know either. I just found out that we can actually merge together."
"Huh??? What do I need to do to separate you two?"
"Hahahaha... Don't dream about it. I'm in control. We can't be separated without my permission."
Are you sure?
"You don't know this yet, do you? I have a contract with Torurata. Logically speaking, I am her master now. So, since you've merged with her, your blood should be flowing together, right?"
What do you mean? What are you trying to say?
Zuo Qingya chuckled lightly, "It's nothing, it's just that you might be in for some bad luck."
"What?" Before she could finish speaking, Jiao Axi's body was controlled by Zuo Qingya, and she couldn't move at all.
"What did you do to me? Why can't I move?"
“I’ve already said I have a contract with Torurata.”
"And then what? So what?"
Zuo Qingya shrugged. "It's nothing, it just means you can't move."
Jiao Aixi's eyes were pleading, "Torulata, please ask her to let us go."
Zuo Qingya looked at Torulata.
Zuo Qingya found it quite amazing that two people could share one body. Wouldn't that be awkward?
While Zuo Qingya was lost in thought, Torulata spoke up, "Zuo Qingya, let go of my brother!"
Although the tone sounded like Torurata's, Zuo Qingya knew that it wasn't Torurata speaking, but Jiao Axi.
However, Zuo Qingya also wanted to see what Jiao Axi was up to, so she nodded and said, "Okay." With that, Zuo Qingya released Torulata and the others from their restraints.
Jiao Axi was overjoyed and wanted to attack Zuo Qingya, but unexpectedly she was bound again.
After several attempts, Jiao Axi became obedient and stopped trying to escape from Zuo Qingya's grasp.
He regretted it; how did he end up getting involved with Zuo Qingya?
"Why don't you just let me go? I promise I'll never look for Torurata again."
Zuo Qingya glanced at Jiao Axi and said, "You're dreaming."
"Then tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"It's nothing, you have to compensate Torurata for his emotional distress."
"Are you sure? Even if I give it to you, Torurata won't want it."
"Don't worry, I don't want Torurata, but I do!"
Jiao Axi pointed at Zuo Qingya and said, "Fine, how much compensation do you want for emotional distress?"
Zuo Qingya smiled and pointed to the glowing treasure beside her, saying, "I want this one, all of it."
Looking at the pile of things Zuo Qingya was pointing to, Jiao Axi quickly shook her head: "This won't do. This is my engagement gift that I've been saving up for several years. I can't give it to you."
Zuo Qingya snorted, a threat in her eyes, "Are you sure you won't give it to me?"
Jiao Axi shuddered, "Yes, yes, I'll give it to you right away."
After Zuo Qingya and the others left, Jiao Axi's face, which had been trying to appear strong, was now streaked with tears.
This was his entire fortune! His engagement gift was gone. Where was he going to find so many engagement gifts to get engaged to Kushier?
"Torata's contract partner is too troublesome. I never expected that my fusion with Torata would turn out like this. Does this mean that I have also been contracted?"
Probably not, since he didn't feel anything, but it's true that he sensed Torurata.
Meanwhile, Zuo Qingya and Torulata returned home, and Zuo Qingya told Zuo Haijia about what had happened.
Zuo Haijia was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected that Torulata had an older brother, and that he was a merman. It was quite unexpected.
Zuo Qingya touched Zuo Haijia's belly and said, "Mom, how much longer until you give birth? Didn't you say a few days? You seem so energetic, are you really about to give birth? Or are you just trying to trick me into coming back?"
Zuo Haijia rolled her eyes at Zuo Qingya and said, "What good will it do you to come back? Are you just here to annoy me? I'm definitely going to have the baby, it's just not the right time yet."
"No, Dad said you're due to give birth in a few days? I just got back, otherwise I would still be out playing."
"Playing outside? You'd be more likely to get soaked in the rain."
Thinking back to what happened two months ago, she never expected it to rain for so many days!
"Is this something I can control? Heaven is Heaven; it decides when to rain, and I can't stop it from raining."
"Forget it, Mom's going to rest. I'm too lazy to argue with you."
"???"
After Zuo Haijia left, Xia Hua and the others cautiously peeked out.
Zuo Qingya looked puzzled. "What are you doing? You're acting so suspiciously."
Xia Hua sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do. Your dad said your mom is about to give birth and is a bit irritable, so he wants us to avoid appearing in front of her as much as possible."
