Chen Shu picked up the Kitten Girl and settled her on his lap.
She seemed a little lighter than a human child of the same size. Her body was exceptionally soft in his arms, and she carried an indescribable but lovely scent. Peach had smelled like that before her Transformation—a strange fragrance he could never tire of breathing in.
But now that Peach had undergone Transformation, he would have to show a little restraint.
The Kitten Girl would grow into a young woman someday.
Mm. Better get a few more sniffs while she's still little.
Chen Shu stroked her head, pinched her cheeks and arms, played with her hands, touched her ears, and stroked her tail. At the same time, he told her:
"I'm Chen Shu."
The Kitten Girl repeated after him in a soft, thin voice:
"Uncle Chen~"
"I'm the one who bought you and raised you. You can call me Dad."
"Uncle Chen~"
"Forget it. Call me whatever you like. Chen Banxia and I have always called Professor Chen 'Professor Chen' anyway..."
"Chen Banxia~"
"This is Xiaoxiao."
"Xiaoxiao~"
"You can call her Sister Xiaoxiao."
"Xiaoxiao~"
The girl stared straight at him, blinking. She kept feeling that something was a little off.
Ning Qing gave him a sidelong glance too.
"This is Qingqing."
"Master~"
"?"
"Master Qingqing~"
"..."
Chen Shu pressed his lips together.
Then he lifted the Kitten Girl by the ribs and set her on the ground. When she made a dash for Qingqing, he called her back. "Come here. Let's take a photo against this wall first so I can get you an Eastern Continent ID. From now on, you'll be a foreigner... a foreign demon."
The Kitten Girl looked back at him and stared for several seconds before turning around to follow him.
