Apparently, Gu Xijiu looked more beautiful than his mother when she blushed. Although Gu Xijiu s.h.i.+elded her appearance, it did not work on Shen Nianmo. It was strange; he usually did not pay attention to beautiful girls, but today, he was a bit weird.

When she called him baby, he also had a very special feeling. Was it because he had not been with his mother these days, so he missed his mother? As soon as Shen Nianmo looked up, he saw his father leaning against the door and looking at him.

"Father!" Shen Nianmo ran toward Shen Jiuli and stretched out his hands. "Father, hug me."

Shen Jiuli held his arms and looked at him. "Acting cute again?"

Shen Nianmo dropped his arms almost instantly. Well, his father had rarely hugged him recently. "I am still a small kid. It is normal for me to act cute." Shen Nianmo blinked his eyes as if he remembered something. "Father, can you call me "baby"?"

Shen Jiuli sized him up a few times. "Are you sure you are not having a fever?" The outcome was unsurprising to Shen Nianmo. He then ran into the palace and looked for his mother.

His mother, Ning Xuemo, was writing in the house. When she saw him running in, she sighed with relief. "How can you run out to play without a servant?"

She raised her hand and picked him up. "Did you meet an accident? Have you been mischievous?"

Shen Nianmo shook his head. "Everything is good. I am very obedient, and I did not misbehave." He lied in his mother"s arms, and he could smell a nice scent from his mother"s body. Although, he could sense that the fragrance on his mother was different from the lady"s. 

It was warm in his mother"s arms, and he felt secure. He pondered for a moment and asked, "Mother, am I your baby?"

Ning Xuemo could not help but laugh. "Of course." In the eyes of a mother, their children were always little babies.

"Then… Can you call me "baby"?" Shen Nianmo looked forward to his mother"s response.

Ning Xuemo was speechless. What happened to this kid today? Nonetheless, she still obliged and called him, "Baby."

Shen Nianmo s.h.i.+vered and took a leap down from her arms. He shook his head. The feeling was not quite right. He turned around and saw Shen Jiuli was standing at the doorway. Shen Nianmo turned and ran away.

"Nianmo is a bit strange today. Did something happen to him?" Ning Xuemo was not at ease. She wanted to go out and see.

Shen Jiuli took his wife"s hand. "Don"t bother him. It doesn"t matter if the kid is strange."

"After all, he is still young." Ning Xuemo frowned.

"He is not young anymore. When I was as big as him, I started to fight in the Three Realms.".

"You were born as The Divine G.o.d in nature, so you are naturally different. By the way, Nianmo has not grown these few months. I am worried that he carries my gene and will not grow up in the next few thousand years..."

"Don"t worry; he won"t. He has his growth trajectory. When he needs to grow up, he will naturally grow up."


As it was already late in the night, Shen Jiuli held his wife"s waist. "Let"s go and rest."

Ning Xuemo"s face went red. Just as she was going to say something, the door slammed, and Shen Nianmo ran in with a pillow. "Mother! "
