Chapter 4

“What?” Liao Nai’s face turned visibly red.

“Come on. I’ll wash you clean and nourish you until you’re chubby.” Liao Ning still didn’t know how her words had frightened him, so she held Liao Nai’s hand gently and led him upstairs. “Leave the housework to Little V. It’ll tidy up.”

Liao Nai felt exasperated.

This wasn’t about doing housework! How could they take a bath together?

“Aunt, I know how to take a bath,” Liao Nai said as he looked up.

“How can a child like you know how to wash yourself properly?” Liao Ning poked Liao Nai’s forehead with her finger.

Liao Nai covered his forehead and wanted to refuse, but Liao Ning had already entered the bathroom to test the temperature of the water.

At the thought that his aunt treated him as a child, Liao Nai frowned. His father had said that he was a big boy already!

After Liao Ning ran the water, she turned around to call out, “Xiaonai,” but she didn’t see anyone outside the door.

Where was the child?

Seeing that he had disappeared, Liao Ning tensed up, but she accidentally stepped on Liao Nai’s clothes when she went out.

A moan sounded below, then a wolf cub stuck its head out.

“Liao Nai?”

When Liao Ning saw the wolf cub in front of her, who was only a few months old, she was immediately shocked and overjoyed.

After the calamity on Earth, in order to better adapt to interstellar life, most humans had awakened the beast genes in their bodies. Most people had a half-beast state, and those with stronger abilities could even completely transform into their beast forms.

She didn’t expect her kid to be one of the strongest humans.

To be able to transform into a beast at the age of five, his future was promising.

However, when she thought of how the future Villain No. 1 would be hunted down by the Interstellar Alliance, Liao Ning felt sad and hugged the wolf cub tightly.

When Liao Nai, who was smugly showing off that he was an adult who could take care of things on his own, looked up, he saw his aunt hugging him for a long time without saying anything. His sharp intuition told him that his aunt wasn’t in a good mood.

He placed his wolf claws on his aunt’s back to comfort her.

Unexpectedly, Liao Ning suddenly picked him up and sucked on his stomach. Her voice softened as she said, “What a cute wolf cub. Let me hug you.”

During the apocalypse, not only did Liao Ning look forward to having a child, but she also hoped that she could have a pet.

However, the zombie-infested environment didn’t allow her to have such fantasies.

Living in the galaxy was too blissful!

She hugged and kissed the wolf cub.

Liao Nai was dumbfounded, but after being caressed by Liao Ning, he lay on her shoulder comfortably.

He didn’t even realize when he had taken a shower, dried his fur, and gotten into the same bed as Liao Nai.

That night, Liao Nai slept peacefully.

When he woke up the next day, the snowstorm had already stopped.

When Liao Nai sensed the light, his eyes widened.

He had yet to return to his human form. After standing up on all fours, he looked around warily.

After a while, he came back to his senses and realized that he had already left the house where his “mother” scolded him every day.

This was his aunt’s house.

After he looked down and saw Liao Ning, he leaned over and rubbed his head against Liao Ning’s neck. The sense of attachment he had never felt before made him want to sleep a little longer.

Even so, Liao Nai jumped off the bed and transformed into his human form.

His snow-white fur turned into an outfit. After he went to the bathroom and made sure there was no one else, he opened the AI.

A childish female voice quickly came from inside. She said anxiously, “Why are you only answering the call now? I thought something had happened to you.”

The girl’s voice was choked with tears, making Liao Nai feel guilty.

“I’m sorry, Xiaomi. I went home with my aunt yesterday,” Liao Nai explained softly.

“Aunt? Go home?” The girl in the AI questioned.

Liao Nai nodded. “Yes, my aunt treats me very well, like my father.”

“Really?” The girl still didn’t believe him and said ruthlessly, “Aren’t you afraid that your aunt is only good to you because she has designs on you?”

“No, she’s very nice. She even treated me to ancient delicacies.” Liao Nai didn’t notice the smile on his lips.

However, the girl could hear his joy, so she said helplessly, “Everyone in this world is very wicked, except for my uncle and your father, of course. Don’t be deceived by that woman’s appearance.”

“Yes.” Liao Nai nodded solemnly. He had only spent a day with his aunt, so the girl’s words made sense.

“How’s it going on your side? Is Uncle back?” Liao Nai asked worriedly.

The girl said with disappointment, “Not yet.”

Then, she snorted. “But I believe my uncle won’t abandon me. I took revenge on those who bullied me yesterday. I’m not as useless as you. Just you wait. When my uncle comes back, I’ll look for you. I won’t let your vicious aunt bully you!”
