Hessiana and the other two did not expect to use a portal to travel from Earth to Inferno, but to return in a spaceship. Fate was a wonderful thing. You would never know what it was until you were covered in it.
Later that day, Hao Ren and the rest returned to their home in the Southern Suburbs.
Y 'zaks was sunbathing with his daughter at the door. When he saw Hao Ren carrying a bunch of things from the market (mainly the pork ribs that Lily wanted to eat), Y' lisabet happily ran up to greet him. Hao Ren handed the things in his hand to Lily. He patted Y 'lisabet's head as he looked at the familiar home with a smile on his face. Although this trip to Inferno was not particularly dangerous or far from his previous "business trips", he felt an inexplicable sense of mental exhaustion. This feeling was only alleviated when he saw his home.
He knew that it was because too many things had happened in this trip to Inferno, and the most important thing was related to Vivian. The impact of the demon god Vivian was physically and mentally exhausting. Had it not been for the fact that his nerves were so thick that they were on the verge of necrosis, he would probably still be traumatized.
Perhaps the rest of them had the same feeling. The moment they saw the door, Nangong Sanba and Nangong Wuyue breathed a sigh of relief. Even Vivian could not help but look particularly relaxed. Among them, only Lily was the same as usual. She did not show any extra expression. She just happily carried her pork ribs and ran to the door. The girl's spirit of joy was like the law of nature. Hao Ren even suspected that even if the sky fell on her, as long as she did not die on the spot, she would still be happy.
The little girl, Y 'lisabet, who was jumping up and down next to her, was probably just as happy as she was. Her father had taught her to be very tenacious. After being blown a few hundred meters away, Y' lisabet said happily, "That was so exciting!"
Vivian smiled faintly and whispered to herself, "It's better to go home."
Hao Ren heard her murmur and nodded with a smile. "Yes, a lot of things have happened outside this time. Don't think about anything when you get home. Take a good rest for two days. I'll ask Raven about your problem when the time comes. "
Hessiana frowned as she looked at Vivian, and then at Hao Ren. Suddenly, her face fell. "It's over. Lady Vivian has made this place her home! If this goes on, she'll completely ignore me! "
Kassandra took a step forward and comforted her. "Mistress, don't take it too hard. Lady Vivian has never cared about you anyway."
It was true that the vampire was almost beaten to death in the past. And to be honest, with her style, she would probably be beaten half to death by Hessiana in the future.
Everything was as usual at home. With the Nangong parents staying behind to look after the house, Hao Ren no longer had to worry about sleeping in a pile of dust every time he came back from a business trip. When he walked into the house, he saw the TV in the living room was on. A pair of pointy cat ears with a tuft of white fur poked out from the back of the sofa facing the TV, and a long tail was wagging beside the sofa.
He called out to the simple-minded cat. "Get out of here! Why are you watching TV? You didn't even greet me when I came back? "
The dumb cat poked her head out from the back of the sofa. She stretched out her hand and shook it at Hao Ren. She meowed softly and then pointed her tail at the cat food commercial on the TV. "Big Boss Cat, I want to eat this! Go buy it for me! "
"… You really are a simple-minded person. Don't you know that I just came back from a business trip?" Hao Ren said.
"Oh," the cat girl shook her head and seemed to understand something. She jumped off the sofa and slid over to rub her head against Hao Ren's trousers. "I'll let you rub my ear. Do you want to play with my tail? It'll be fun! I'll let you play for five minutes. "
Hao Ren was speechless.
Y 'zaks looked on and grinned. "She's not simple-minded. She's just trying to get along with you in her own way."
Hao Ren scratched Rollie's ear. After coaxing the cat girl back to the sofa, he ran to the bathroom and found Lil Pea soaking in the tub. The little mermaid seemed to have sensed him. Before Hao Ren could show his head, she was already in the water. As soon as Hao Ren showed his face, the little mermaid spat on him. He reached out and took Lil Pea out of the tub. He was a little surprised. "Hey, she's heavy … Did you grow taller again?"
"You've grown taller!" Lil Pea happily slapped Hao Ren's arm with her tail. "And she's shed scales!"
"Shed scales?" Hao Ren was stunned. Only then did he notice that there were some fine luminous things in the tub where Lil Pea was lying. They were the scales on the mermaid's tail. There were some lighter colored parts on the little mermaid's tail, which looked like new scales. "When did it start?"
Lil Pea counted with her fingers and answered loudly, "Three days! Not counting today. "
Hao Ren quickly carried Lil Pea to the living room and asked Nangong Wuyue, "Do you know that Lil Pea has shed scales?"
"How would I know?" Nangong Wuyue rolled her eyes. "I've been following you all this while. Have you forgotten?"
Hao Ren slapped his forehead. Ayesha happened to come out of the kitchen at this time. She heard the conversation between Hao Ren and Nangong Wuyue. She casually said, "Maybe it's normal to shed scales. She's growing faster and faster, and the pattern on her tail is also changing. Perhaps this kind of mermaid should shed scales when she transitions from a juvenile to a child. I've observed her carefully. The little mermaid is very healthy, and her new scales are completely different from the original scales. Obviously, they're two different physiological stages, so it should be normal. "
Hearing Ayesha, an experienced deep-sea creature, said so, Hao Ren finally calmed down. He held Lil Pea in his hands and looked her up and down for a long time. He found that the little mermaid was as energetic as before, and the replaced scales had regenerated. It seemed that it was a normal physiological phenomenon.
Seeing Hao Ren in such a hurry, Lily could not help but mutter, "Isn't it just a change of scales? I change my hair twice a year. You don't seem to be in a hurry."
"Nonsense. I've watched Uncle Zhao's Erhuang shed its hair dozens of times, but this is the first time I've seen a mermaid shed its scales." Hao Ren turned his head and glanced at Lily. "Speaking of mermaids, they're really different from ordinary fish. I heard that they can change their scales even after they've grown so big. I thought they would grow for a lifetime."
Lily crossed her arms and swayed back and forth on the sofa as she recalled. "Before the first shedding, I also thought that my hair would grow for a lifetime. But when I realized that I was shedding for the first time, I was terrified. I thought I was going to die. I even thought of getting some glue to stick the fallen hair back, but I don't know if it would work. Childhood … it's so nostalgic. "
Hao Ren looked at her with a strange expression. "Why don't you take a good look at how a dog shedding its hair looks like? Don't tell me you didn't even have a dog when you were a kid?"
Lily crossed her arms and said, "I thought I was a werewolf at that time! And I thought that I wouldn't need to shed my hair after I became a demon … "
Everyone was speechless.
Hessiana sat on the sofa in a slightly reserved manner, listening to Hao Ren and his abnormal family discussing things that ordinary people would never understand or experience. She felt an atmosphere that she had never felt in the Athens' sanctuary. The atmosphere made her feel that there was a lack of discipline, vigilance, stability, and control, but she inexplicably yearned for it.
Vivian sat down next to her and asked, "You still have to take care of your family, right? When are you leaving?"
Hessiana was stunned for a moment. She realized that she was not liked here, especially not by Vivian. She lowered her head slightly and said, "Oh, yeah, I have to leave … I'm leaving tomorrow. Can I stay here for a day?"
Vivian glanced at Hao Ren and gently scratched her head. "No problem. I want to say that you can stay for another two or three days, but don't delay your family's business. After all, the Athens' sanctuary is not a safe place, and the demon hunters are always watching you. You have to go back and take care of things. "
Hessiana was stunned. She could not believe that Vivian would take the initiative to invite her to stay for two more days. Although this' invitation 'was almost considered cold, it was an unexpected surprise that she had not experienced for thousands of years. "Lady Vivian, don't you think I'm annoying?"
"I'm definitely annoyed if you make a fuss," Vivian immediately said. "But after spending a few days together, I found that you have matured a lot. You're not as clingy as before. And Mr. Landlord also advised me to take care of you. If you want to thank him, thank him. "
Hessiana's expression suddenly became more interesting than before. She looked at Hao Ren in disbelief. Her mind was full of complicated thoughts that no one knew. Finally, she sniffled and mumbled, "Thank you, Second Papa."
Then Hao Ren and the fish in his arms slid under the coffee table.
