Yaoyao suddenly saw a familiar figure from the corner of her eye. Her pupils constricted and she quickly broke free from Meng Xiang. She called out timidly,"Mom."
Meng Xiang's expression changed. He suddenly turned around and opened his arms to block Yaoyao."Yaoyao, run quickly. Leave this to me.”
"Yaoyao, stop right there!" Yaoyao's mother shouted with a gloomy expression.
" Mom, I…" Yaoyao was a little shaken and scared.
"Auntie, if there's anything, come at me. Please don't scold Yaoyao, okay?" Meng Xiang blocked Yaoyao with his body and slowly lowered his arms.
"Speak? Who are you? Why are you with my daughter?”Yaoyao's mother crossed her arms and looked at Meng Xiang with an unfriendly expression.
"Mom, this has nothing to do with Meng Xiang. He just gave me a birthday present.”
"Shut up! I'll deal with you when we get home." Yaoyao's mother scolded loudly.
"Auntie, I told you not to hurt Yaoyao. If you have any anger, just come at me.”Meng Xiang's expression did not change as he boldly grabbed Yaoyao's hand.
"Let go! Do you hear me?"
"Meng Xiang ~" Yaoyao hesitated. She looked flustered and didn't know what to do.
"Auntie, why can't we sit down calmly and have a good talk?”Meng Xiang had already lowered his stance. If it wasn't for the fact that she was Yaoyao's mother and his future mother-in-law, he wouldn't have been so polite.
"Hu ~ Hu ~! Alright, tell me, why are you holding my daughter's hand now? Are you guys dating?" Yaoyao's mother took a deep breath.
"That's right! I like Yaoyao very much. In the future, I, Meng Xiang, can give her happiness!”Meng Xiang held Yaoyao's hand without hesitation and admitted it openly.
"Happiness? Kid, do you know what you're saying? You're only 14.15 years old, and you're already dating! Do you believe that I'll go and find your parents?”Yaoyao's mother was so angry that she was going crazy.
"Suit yourself. Anyway, my biological parents don't want me anymore.”Meng Xiang looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
"You!" Yaoyao's mother almost wanted to curse.
"Meng Xiang, Mom, stop arguing.”
"Yaoyao, don't be afraid. Anyway, Auntie is here today, so I can make things clear.”
"Auntie, please sit." Meng Xiang pulled Yaoyao and sat on a long bench in the pavilion.
"Humph! I want to see what you can say.”Yaoyao's mother sat opposite her with an unfriendly expression.
"Hello, Auntie. Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Meng and my name is Xiang. I'm Yaoyao's classmate and also my deskmate.”Meng Xiang muttered to himself for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.
"Meng Xiang, right? You just said that your biological parents don't want you anymore. Then who are you living with now?”Yaoyao's mother asked.
"My auntie, my dearest auntie! She said that I was the most respectable person in my life.”Meng Xiang said in a deep voice.
"Aunt? Do you have any other relatives or friends?”
"Hehe, I'm sorry, I don't have any." Meng Xiang shook his head.
"That Meng Xiang isn't Auntie ~ What prejudice do you have? How can you give Yaoyao happiness like this? Why don't you tell me?" Yaoyao's mother asked impatiently.
"It's very simple, because I'm a Demon Fruit ability user!”Meng Xiang's face was not red, and his heart was not beating. He lied calmly.
"What?! Are you an aptitude user?" Yaoyao's mother was shocked. She stood up abruptly, her eyes widened, and her mouth opened slightly.
"Mom? What was a Demon Fruit? What is an aptitude user?" Yaoyao was a little confused.
"Wait, if you are an aptitude user, why don't you join the naval academy?”Yaoyao's mother asked in bewilderment. There was something fishy about this.
"It's very simple. I'm the only one who knows about this. Also, auntie, you should know that if you want to join the naval academy, you must first pay 100,000 union coins. This is a hard condition. No one can change that!" Meng Xiang shrugged and revealed a bitter smile.
In this world, all those with the ability of the Devil's Fruit had joined the navy.
As mentioned earlier, it was a high-class profession in the navy. Countless people wanted to become a navy officer. Why? It was because after becoming a navy officer, you would be able to enjoy special treatment and special rights.
For example, under the marriage law, ordinary people could only marry one wife. However, after becoming a navy officer, you could fly to 170 countries in the world at will, and the tickets were free. Most importantly, you can have three wives. Of course, the prerequisite was that you could afford it. If you were a Demon Fruit ability user, you could marry ten wives. The world is right. The government will also give you a subsidy of 1 million union coins every year.
It could even be said that the devil fruit aptitude users were not bound by the law. They were under the jurisdiction of the navy.
The navy headquarters, on the other hand, belonged to the world. Under the jurisdiction of the prefecture!
This world was like a pyramid. The strong preyed on the weak. Only the strong could have more privileges.
"Meng Xiang, your family background shouldn't be very good, right?”Yaoyao's mother came back to her senses.
"That's right. I just paid off half of the mortgage for the house I'm living in now. My school fees, living expenses at home, utility bills, and grandfather's medical expenses are really huge.”Meng Xiang also told the truth.
"Meng Xiang, let me ask you, do you really like Yaoyao? You want to marry her in the future?" Yaoyao's mother pondered for a moment and began to change her tone.
"Auntie, I really like Yaoyao. I can promise you that. I won't let him get hurt!”Meng Xiang said sincerely.
"Alright, I only hope that you won't let Yaoyao down.”
