"A title is just a label; you can call me whatever you want."

Mu An was quite casual about his name, but Li Chu was much more serious and insisted on addressing him as "True Lord".

"My Lord, it is truly my daughter's good fortune to become your disciple."

Mu An glanced at Li Chu, who was standing at one end of the corridor, behaving quite respectfully, but her gaze remained completely unmoved.

"Your feelings are even more indifferent than mine, so how can you talk about liking someone?"

Li Chu had expected Mu An to be waiting for her there. She didn't intend to refute Mu An's questions, but instead steered the conversation in another direction.

"Does Your Excellency not consider my feelings for my daughter to be love?"

"Of course not. How can a life without feelings have love?" Mu An decisively denied.

Despite being rejected in this way, Li Chu did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, she looked up at Mu An and met his gaze.

"In that case, let me tell you the story of Xiaoyin and me, True Lord... I wonder if True Lord would be willing to listen to our story?"

Li Chu smiled brightly, and Mu An did not object.

With their mutual understanding, Li Chu began to speak on her own.

"The first time I met Xiaoyin was 337 years ago. I was standing in the laboratory, looking at the tiny embryos in the petri dish through a glass partition."

To be honest, according to human aesthetics, Xiaoyin was really, really ugly back then, so ugly that I felt living with her would be incredibly boring, let alone exploring human nature.

But regardless, Xiaoyin was born, inheriting my genes and undergoing improvements in the human-related aspects.

At that time, I thought, even if Xiaoyin couldn't help me in any way, I could still train her into a new god, which would make things a little easier for me.

When Xiaoyin was one year old, she lived with me. We left the laboratory and came to live in a high-rise building in the city.

According to records from the old days, I decorated Xiaoyin's room in a very childlike style.

But Xiaoyin never spent a single day in her room. It seemed that she regarded my belly as her home, rather than the room I had prepared for her.

She always lay on my stomach and crawled all over me.

She would rub against my cheek one moment, kick me with her little feet the next, and often pull my hair in the middle of the night, making me suffer terribly.

Fortunately, I didn't need sleep, nor did I feel any pain; I just found Xiaoyin's actions rather amusing.

……

When Xiaoyin was two years old, she learned to walk and talk, and called me "Mom" for the first time.

Back then, Xiaoyin was full of curiosity about everything in the world. She would climb to the window by herself and jump out of the window.

This is really dangerous for human children, but thankfully I never let Xiaoyin out of my sight.

Two-year-old Xiaoyin doesn't understand anything, so I don't blame her; it's my fault for not teaching her what danger is.

I froze the moment, brought Xiaoyin back, installed safety netting in the house, and strengthened her safety education.

……

"When she was three years old, Xiaoyin showed a particular fondness for pretending to be an adult. She would often imitate me and act pretentiously, wanting me to call her 'Mom' instead."

Did you know? Three-year-old Xiaoyin is so small that she will cry for a long time if you touch her even lightly.

But this tiny little person will stand at the head of the bed, putting on a serious expression, and saying things like "Baby, be good."

She would also make me pretend to be sick, and then she would kiss me all over my face, making a smacking noise, until my face was covered in drool.

As a deity born in a laboratory, everything was an experience unlike anything he had ever had before.

At the time, I felt that Xiaoyin must be the cutest baby in the world, and perhaps such a baby wasn't suited to be a deity.

……

"Four-year-old Xiaoyin has become increasingly lively. Whenever she sees me from afar, she waves her arms and runs towards me, babbling as she goes, and finally jumps into my arms."

Xiaoyin ran very fast and had a lot of impact. At that time, I thought that if I were really an ordinary person, I would have my bones broken by Xiaoyin sooner or later.

Fortunately, I am not an ordinary person. Even if Xiaoyin were ten or a hundred times faster, I could still catch her steadily.

She always had "like" and "love" on her lips, and she would always lie next to me, asking if I liked her.

If I answer that I like it, she will laugh happily. If I say I don't like it, she will turn her back and sulk by herself. I have to coax her with candy before she will make up with me.

Amidst the noise and commotion, Xiaoyin grew up little by little, just like an ordinary human child, without showing any special characteristics.

If there's anything different, it's that in three years, she said "like" to me 576 times and "love" 427 times. I heard similar words almost every day.

Of course, Xiaoyin is fair. If she tells me something, I have to tell her something too, otherwise she'll be very unhappy and ignore me for a long time.

……

"Seven-year-old Xiaoyin became exceptionally mischievous. She played with fire at home and burned down the entire house."

When I found her, Xiaoyin was sitting in the sea of ​​fire, looking extremely excited.

The flames spontaneously avoided Xiaoyin's body, creating a safe zone around her.

At that time, I knew that Xiaoyin's genes were about to awaken, and if things continued to develop like this, she would become a god like me.

The house is insignificant, but Xiaoyin's behavior is extremely dangerous.

If Xiaoyin is a god, then Xiaoyin did nothing wrong.

But as a human being, her behavior was inappropriate.

Clearly, I already had a preference at that time; I wanted Xiaoyin to be an ordinary person.

I didn't know what to do, so I sought help on the Tiangongxing website.

On the StarNet, I received countless different responses. I eliminated most of the useless content, compiled the answers given by humans, and finally selected the one with the highest support rate.

Using a human-made decoration, we can give Xiaoyin a complete "childhood".

That night, I beat Xiaoyin up badly, and while I was beating her, I taught her what she could and couldn't do.

Even though at the time I didn't really understand why these things couldn't be done, I only knew that these were conclusions reached by the majority of humanity through voting.

Xiaoyin cried terribly, struggled incessantly, and even tried to escape several times.

I found it funny, so I let her run around until she got tired and then I brought her back.

I know Xiaoyin didn't listen to a word she said, and I also know she's simply afraid of pain.

Her physical indicators clearly told me everything, but I still didn't stop. Instead, I let her cry and kept beating her until I felt she remembered it.

From beginning to end, I never tried to understand Xiaoyin's inner thoughts, because I knew that Xiaoyin must have hated me very, very much back then.
