Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 570 Grandpa?


Winning the 10 point match was a little difficult since Ying Yu was prepared for her sudden bursts of speed. However, with Shiro's vast combat experience and understanding of her body, she was able to narrowly dodge Ying Yu's strikes just in time to counter with her own. The final score, 10-0.

"Thank you very much for your tutelage. I've learnt a lot in today's spar. If you don't mind, can we do this more often?" Ying Yu asked with a happy smile.

"We'll see. I may be here for a while so if we get the chance then sure." Shiro smiled before making her way back to the sect master.

". . ."

Looking at Attie who was sitting on Li Jian's shoulder while he was contemplating about something brought quite a weird feeling to Shiro's heart but she ignored it for now and reached out for Attie.

"Ah not yet. Do you not want to fight against anyone else? Get some exercise?" Li Jian asked with a forced smile.

Furrowing her brows in suspicion, Shiro shook her head.

"It's ok. I'll take my son and be on my way now…" She said slowly as she reached for Attie.

"Ok, listen, can Attie become my grandchild?" Li Jian asked seriously as Shiro's smile twitched.

He didn't want to beat around the bush and make excuses so he decided to come out with his thoughts.

"He's my son."

"Not flesh and blood. Like how people have stepfather's, I'll just be his step grandpa."

"I don't think that's how it works."

"We can make it so that it works."

"But he has his real grandpa and grandma. My parents are still alive."

"What about the father's side."

"He has no father's side."

"Then I can be the grandparent on the father's side."

"What part of he has no father's side do you not understand?"

"If he has none, we can just make it so that he does."

"How desperate are you to have a grandchild???"

"LISTEN! Not being able to have children does quite something on a man's psyche ok!? I want to be called grandpa by my grandkids but it's not possible so Attie's the next best choice!" Li Jian confessed as he slammed his hand down on the ground.

Widening her eyes from the sudden slam, Shiro looked at the man once more.

"You can't have children?"

"No."

"Is it relationship problems or…"

". . . I just can't ok."

". . ."

". . ."

". . ."

"So am I Attie's grandpa now?"

"No!"

"WHY?!"

"Because I've literally only known you for a week!" Shiro stood up.

"A week is nothing! There used to be marriages happening when people knew each other for only 2 days!"

"That's the past old man! And it's something else entirely!"

"The past is the foundation of the future!"

"Whatever, I'm going." Shiro shook her head and wanted to leave. Who knows if this old man was about to kidnap her son when she's not looking.

Glancing at Li Jian, Attie thought about it for a moment before smiling and giving him a small wave.

"Attie don't wave to strange creepy old men. He looks 30+ but his actual age is deceiving." Shiro lectured as Attie retracted his wave.

"Damn it young lady! Just let this old man have his wish ok!? Why are you like this?!"

"Because he's my son! Why don't you just adopt one if you want a grandkid!"

"That's not the same!" Li Jian stood up.

"Why isn't it the same!?"

"Because my boy Nan Tian only has eyes for you! I've tried to match him a few times already but he rejected them! I thought it was a romance thing so I had my elders read some tips and books online to see how they would woo the opposite s.e.x and help him but it didn't work! Even after all the elders tried to teach him, he still hasn't wooed anyone!"

"Wait, you're the cause of his initial approach??" Shiro glared at the old man in annoyance since he was the catalyst that pushed little beggar on a path to become a stalker.

"Yes because he never showed interest towards girls! At one point I thought he was gay so I tried to match him with males and he got pissed off at me!" Li Jian confessed.

". . ."

"Since he only has eyes for you, Attie is the closest thing to a proper grandkid ok!? Just let this old man have his wish!"

"Like I said, no!" Shiro huffed before leaving.

"If you give me food, I'll be your grandkid. And before you say anything, I'm kidding." Yin called out nonchalantly as she was currently holding a roasted chicken drumstick.

Earlier, she was eating in the canteen with Iziuel before sensing that Shiro was walking around so she wanted to come talk to Shiro only to stumble on the two of them arguing about how he couldn't be Attie's grandpa.

"Ain't that cannibalism?" Shiro raised her eyebrow.

Looking down on the chicken drumstick, Yin shrugged.

"This one doesn't fly and it can't breathe fire. Not the same. Anyways, it's just a name mum. Isn't having more people keep Attie company good?" She asked as Shiro glanced back at Li Jian who was trying to get Attie's attention.

Thinking about it for a moment, Shiro agreed that it was good but it was quite… odd to have Li Jian become Attie's grandpa.

After all, with how Li Jian phrased it, Nan Tian and Li Jian would essentially become Attie's father's side of the family.

Quickly shaking her head of the thought, Shiro refused once more.

"Well just because you can't be called lil bro's grandpa doesn't mean you can't treat him well." Yin shrugged and took a bite of the chicken.

"But he won't call me grandpa then." Li Jian sighed.

"It's not like he can talk yet since he's young. Anyways, Imma go back to Iziuel now. she's still waiting in the canteen." Yin waved her hand before jumping into the shadow.

'Did you come here to make trouble for me?' Shiro's smile twitched before turning back to Li Jian.

"You can stay with Attie but just so that we're clear, you're not his grandpa ok?"

"Why are you so against it? Like your daughter said, it's just a name." Li Jian pouted slightly as Shiro felt a shiver down her spine.

The sight of a middle aged man like Li Jian pouted gave her quite the shock.

"Well it's because Lil' Tian will be akin to Attie's dad if that's the case." Shiro said while glancing away.

Tilting his head for a moment, Li Jian's lips curved into a sh*t eating grin.

"Ah so that's the case. Hahahaha! Young lady, your thought process is quite 'cute' hahahaha! You're one of those tsundere things aren't you? Ok ok, I got it. I 'won't' be Attie's grandpa." Li Jian laughed as he gave her a knowing wink.

Since she's one of those tsundere people, Li Jian understood that he essentially needed to reverse her sentences.

You can't be Attie's Grandpa -> You can be his grandpa but not yet.

"Eat sh*t and die old man! What do you mean I'm one of those tsundere things!?" Shiro gritted her teeth since she felt like she was about to bust a vein talking to this old man.

The worst part of it was that she couldn't harm him either since she owed him a debt of gratitude. Not only did he save Nan Tian, he had also saved her a few times with the healers. On top of that, he even provided some manpower during the fight against Aekari.

"Hahaha, it's ok, I understand." Li Jian smiled.

"If you want to visit Lil' Tian, his room is on the third floor of the main building. It shouldn't be too hard to find." He chuckled.

"I'm not looking for him!" Shiro huffed before storming off. The longer she talked with him, the more she felt she was about to lose her mind.

Seeing Shiro walk away, Li Jian gave Attie a wave before pouring himself another cup to tea.

'Nan Tian, you found quite an interesting person.' He thought with a smile.

###

Asking around for where the library is, Shiro realised something. She hadn't asked permission to use it yet.

". . . F*ck." She muttered since it meant that she needed to go back to the old man after literally just telling him to 'eat sh*t and die.'

Seeing Shiro frown slightly, Attie tilted his head before reaching out to Shiro and pushed the side of her lips up into a smile.

*Ba-dum

"Ahh why are you so cute!" Shiro smiled and hugged Attie.

"Mommy's just thinking about how I should talk to that old man again, don't worry."

Hearing this, Attie puffed out his chest and patted it, as if telling Shiro to leave it to him.

"Ah it's fine Attie, you don't have to worry." Shiro smiled before turning around.

Taking a deep breath, she mentally prepared herself to talk to Li Jian again.
