Hao Ren did not know why Hessiana was so bitter towards him. He kept wondering when he would unknowingly rub her the wrong way again. There was no reason for it, and he could only attribute it to the inevitable psychotic disorder one would have as a left-behind child. For a thousand years, Vivian left Hessiana behind in Athens. It was fortunate enough that Hessiana turned out mentally tough and just a little neurotic as a result of the neglect.
A long awkward moment ensued when Hessiana called Hao Ren "pops".
However, Hessiana could not care less; she was pleased with herself. For the first time in a thousand years, she saw improvement in her relationship with her beloved Lady Vivian. She was on cloud nine. Hao Ren could not be bothered about the neurotic bat-demon so long as she did not create any trouble. He passed the buck for disciplining the kid to Vivian and went back to his work.
