Yang Leiji & Future Mothers (2)

"Hmm, your first question doesn't really have a good answer, but if I had to choose the most appropriate answer... I went this far because I must. The mistakes my father has made in the past have done him no small amount of harm. I know this because of the deep connection between the two of us. A connection that can be made similar to... Knowing how one feels at a given time. And since that's the case I have a unique look at the situation. Things my father attempted to hide from others, I can see as clear as day. My mother, Su Yan, has a similar connection, though it differs slightly. Hers is one of spousal love, where mine is parent/child love. Though it does not differ enough for my mother to not also sense the same things I do. It was with her help that I was able to contact all of you." I explained answering all three questions at once. "This should answer all your questions. Do you have any others?" I added, summoning a cup of tea to my hand from absolutely nowhere. 

"I heard that not all of us would be considered wives, is this true? And if so why even bother?" Lan You Ruo asked, changing her position. 

"Well, I'll start by confirming that information. Yes, some of you will not be considered official wives, and some of you would likely be on the rung below concubines, in other words, a wet nurse. However, those of you here that would only have the position of wet nurse, have specific reasons for being so." I said, and then waited for the silent shock to pass. "The way to determine who fits into these positions is something that my 3rd mother, Shang Qing Luo, had set up even before she was married to my father. Those who have similar degrees of affection that match this, is how your positions will be determined. If you don't like this, that is fine. I have already said you need not remain, as I will not force you. Just keep in mind, it was because of this very reasoning, I was even able to convince my mothers to allow this particular meeting to even happen." I continued. 

"I see, so then, if someone has a similar position to sister Bi Luo, then they would be considered as a concubine... Can you confirm that this is how your father would view us as well?" Yun Xuan asked, being a little timid about it. 

"I can confirm that this will indeed be how he sees you. Though I can not confirm what position you'll have with 100% certainty. Like I said, my father usually requires a bit of push to get the ball rolling. There are only 2 women in the world who have not had that issue. One is my mother Su Yan, and the 2nd is my 2nd mother Xia Ning Chang. My other mothers all required some sort of external factor to bring them closer together." I answered. 

"I see, and how sure are you that your father will accept what you're doing now." Yang Yan asked, narrowing her eyes, clearly showing the answer she gets will determine her involvement in the future. 

"I am 100% certain, provided you all make up your minds to become my fathers woman and by that extension, my mothers." I said with absolute confidence.

"And what exactly makes you so certain? Won't pushing two people together cause problems?" Yang Yan asked further, her eyes opening slightly as the expectations were becoming more justified. 

"My first wife, Huo Lei. She is the reason why I am certain. At first I was confused when we met. And then my father appeared and forced the two of us to marry. There were days at the beginning I felt like I had been treated unfairly by his actions that day. However, as time went on, I began to love Huo Lei. And now, I can say for certain, there is no limit to pain I would inflict upon someone if they were to harm a single hair on her head, unjustly." I answered, showing off a tiny flicker of my power for merely a moment.. "And this is a feeling that goes for all my now 10 wives. And for the women who will eventually become mine." I added.

"I see. Now did you just say that you'd be accepting more women as your own, in the future?" Lan You Ruo said, asking with a look of serious curiosity.

"Well, the whole back and forth between my father and I started when I was rather young. And I ended up making him marry two beautiful women. So... I fully expect him to make just about every effort imaginable to force my hand in union with others as well." I replied, with a serious answer. 

"Pfft... Hahahaha, that's great, very well then, allow me to call you my son as well." Yang Yan laughed at the answer. 

"A mother's love is one if not the most important part of a child's life. And I am eternally thankful to my mother's who stepped up and did that for me. Not having such an experience is something I desire my siblings to never deal with. And the more of it there is, the better." I said, in a completely honest tone. 

"I see, now then one more question... Is it true your mother will use some sort of means to turn back into a child? I heard the story from Sister Shang Qing Luo... I found it intriguing but also a little odd. Is it true and what was it like?" Lan You Ruo asked, which made the other women all look at me with a range of looks, though they had one emotion in common, enthusiastic intrigue. 

"Yes, the story is true. As for what it was like..." I said, pausing to think of the right way to say the next part. "Hmm, if I had to sum it up... It was like I had gained the last missing piece to my very being as a person." I answered with a small happy smile. 

"Awe, so it wasn't embarrassing for you? You know, to suck on your mother's breast when you're this old?" Yang Yan smirked, with a small expectant sigh.
