The light and darkness in front of her eyes flickered, and time seemed to have gone fast forward. In the blink of an eye, the appearances of the people in front of Chu Jiao had changed.

“Little Master, it’s time to eat.”

“I’m coming.”

The very same conversation seemed to have taken place everyday. The young boy splendidly grew up with each passing day and had now become a fine young man, whereas the young girl’s features did not seem to have the slightest hint of aging.

“99, didn’t I tell you to not call me Little Master before?” The voice of the young man, who was in the middle of puberty, sounded a little hoarse. His nose bridge was holding up a pair of glasses and his figure was slim, his black eyes had the same firm and sharp look Chu Jiao was oh-so familiar with. He floated down the stairs and casually took the dishes the young girl was carrying in her hand. He then held her hand, reminding her, “Call me Ah Chen.”

The young girl slightly cocked her head. Chu Jiao noticed that her android cold expression from before seemed to have warmed up as her silver gray eyes seemed to contain a fragment of confusion humans experienced, “But, Little Master is Little Master. This is the default address Master has set for 9527, 9527 cannot change it.”

“I told you not to call that woman ‘master’ anymore! She now has a new home and a new son,” The young man suddenly kicked the chair out of rage and irritation, “You only have me as your master now. This family only has the two of us!”

The color of confusion in the young girl’s eyes grew deeper, “But, Master is Master, Little Master is Master’s son. Before Master left, she ordered 9527 to take good care of the Little Master.” Even though she was quite a smart android, she completely didn’t understand human emotions and only possessed simple logic-based and reasoning abilities.

The little booklet laying at the side was suddenly flipped open by a breeze, emitting page turning noises. And, on the page that was opened, were the words ‘Service Life: 10 years’ written on it.
