Zhao Bai was indeed rather approachable, a refined and easygoing man, but that did not mean he had maternal instincts!
Under the bright moonlight, the first person the Xuanyuan Sword saw really was Zhao Bai.
But were you a baby chick or something?!
"Mommy!"
She floated around Zhao Bai. She was a female flying sword that cost nothing, struck wherever she was pointed, and had only one flaw: she called Zhao Bai Mommy.
A male mommy.
This commotion only lasted through the morning. Zhao Bai still had to go to work, and as he walked, the Xuanyuan Sword continued floating around him.
Like a mother taking care of a child.
Along the way, this family-of-three combination drew quite a few looks.
By tomorrow, rumors would probably start spreading.
But Zhao Bai did not care.
Let them talk. In a sense, they really were a family of three.
Zhao Bai opened the door, Bronya sat behind the register, and the Xuanyuan Sword followed Zhao Bai into the back kitchen.
She was a weapon, the most miraculous Divine Key in the world, and she could withstand high temperatures.
While preparing the ingredients, Zhao Bai stretched out his hand and gently stroked her hair.
"Mm~"
The Xuanyuan Sword narrowed her eyes with a comfortable expression and rubbed against Zhao Bai's palm of her own accord.
Like a cat.
In truth, she was Ji Lin, but not Ji Lin.
She was merely a newborn infant whose intelligence had just awakened.
Even under the influence of that obsession spanning thousands of years, she could not form complete thoughts and could only behave like a baby.
She spoke simple words and called people Daddy and Mommy.
To be honest, Grandma was already an advanced-level word for her.
She needed patient guidance.
