257 New Name
“Greetings, Mother.”
That was what the Autobot said.
Kang De and Xiaoman’s smiles froze on their faces.
They looked very husband and wife.
A moment later, extremely similar shock and panic flashed across their faces.
“Hey!”
Kang De berated in shock, “What are you talking about?!”
He looked like he had taught him a lesson.
Xiaoman did not expect her iron son to be so simple and direct. She subconsciously retorted, “Wait! I’m not! Y-y-you, don’t say that…”
The two of them subconsciously turned to look at each other and turned back.
His iron son tilted his head and blinked his large purple eyes, looking innocent, confused, and helpless, “Isn’t that so? Father clearly mentioned you the most and wrote in the diary with you as the person to confide in…”
Xiaoman’s expression changed and she turned to look at Kang De. “There’s such a thing? Where’s the diary?”
Kang De kept winking at his iron son, but the other party’s expression was extremely innocent, making Kang De even want to laugh. A father knows his son best. He could tell at a glance that this unfilial son was pretending!
What was even more f*cking infuriating was that this appearance was clearly copied from his father!
If Xiaoman was calmer, she would definitely discover that the innocent expression of the Transformer was very familiar, but she was not calm. Previously, she had asked Kang De if he could not afford to offend him in the Main God Space, and the answer and the change in his mental state had already made her a little flustered, let alone with her iron son’s help.
She was no longer her usual calm and collected self. Perhaps she was changing the topic, or perhaps she really cared. She even held Kang De’s sleeve and said, “I want to see.”
boxn ov el. c o mOn the one hand, Kang De tried to scare his iron son with his eyes. If he continued to blindly compare homework, it would double. On the other hand, he could barely deal with Xiaoman’s questioning—he was also instinctively flustered.
“Burned to a crisp.” He replied.
How could Xiaoman believe it? She even began to wheedle, “Let me see, let me see.”
Kang De pushed her face away. “Don’t do this. It’s disgusting…”
At this moment, the Autobot’s tone became confused and even stunned, “Father, did I say something wrong?”
—Yes, you b*stard, shut up.
As Kang De spoke with such intimidation in his eyes, he said, “It’s very rude to call an unmarried lady like this. Being glib can’t bring you practical benefits and meaningful evaluations, and it’ll embarrass her and me. You said something you shouldn’t have.”
“Is that so, Father? Then I apologize. I’m sorry, I misunderstood.”
His iron son accepted it humbly. Of course, it was only his mouth.
Because the moment it met Kang De’s gaze, denial appeared in its eyes, and its mouth quickly mouthed the word “Tina”. The meaning was obvious—I didn’t say anything I shouldn’t have.
It was not so much a rebuttal, but a threat.
—Pick that star!
At this moment, Kang De even wanted to lean back tactically—what was artificial intelligence?
Xiaoman only saw the father and son’s superficial interaction and did not notice the indescribable things hidden in the depths. She composed herself and could not be bothered to ask about the diary.
“Alright, alright. Why are you so unreasonable? Haven’t we joked enough?”
She hit Kang De, then looked at her iron son with a smile. Her gentle and loving attitude was definitely not only tolerance for “children”, nor was it pure love for the Transformers.

Instead, it was an admiration that said, “If you can speak, say more.”
She smiled and said, “Hello, my name is Wang Xiaoman. I’ve been a friend of your father’s since he was young. It’s good to meet you… What’s your name?”
Kang De rolled his eyes.
—If you f*cking say something like “Mother, please give me a name”, I’ll be impressed.
However, he did not. The Autobot’s steel body shook. It glanced at Kang De and said, “I don’t have a name yet. The names Father gave me are all very strange. I decided to choose one for myself. I had originally chosen it, but unfortunately, there was a war at that time and Father could not be distracted, so I did not tell him.”
“Don’t worry about him. He’s a cripple to begin with. Moreover, with his bad taste, he’ll most likely suggest that you be called Invincible Iron Bull.” Xiaoman rolled her eyes at Kang De and said, “So what name did you give yourself?”
His iron son’s body shook again as he said aggrievedly, “Father did say that. You really know him.”
Therefore, Kang De received another eye roll.
Kang De remembered this. His iron son wanted to choose his own name and he had heard him say it. However, he was very busy at that time and the Autobot did not take the initiative to mention it later…
Wait!
The trap was here?
Kang De smelled a trace of scheming.
“Father let me read many books, such as myths. My first book was an Egyptian myth. The first story I saw when I casually flipped through it was the origin of my name, like a strange fate… The protagonist of that story loves his father very much. He’s a guardian and a god of law and order, so I want to use his name as mine…”
The Autobot paused for a moment and said in a serious tone, “Horus is the name I chose.”
“Horus…”
Xiaoman was relatively uncultured. She thought for a moment and nodded. “Not bad, not bad.”
Kang De was also relatively uncultured, but he still instinctively felt that this name was a little strange.
His iron son looked over and asked in a nervous and inquiring tone, “Father… can I?”
—I don’t think so. You should be called Invincible Iron Bull.
Of course, he could not say this in front of Xiaoman. This was probably also within the Autobot’s calculations. Xiaoman walked forward and gently patted its large face, “You gave it a name yourself. Why do you have to ask your father if it’s good? This name is quite good. The name is only a code.”
“No, it’s better if Father agrees.”
The Autobot said in a low voice, “Father made me born and obtained life. He taught me logic and raised me. He treated me very well and let me learn new knowledge and train my abilities at all times. He made me work hard day and night to make enchanted bullets and taught me how to maximize my value as much as possible…”
At first, Xiaoman was very happy to hear this, but her expression slowly changed. She turned to look at Kang De. “This…”
Kang De revealed an awkward but polite smile. “He’s a child…”
Xiaoman sighed silently.
Then, she turned around and looked into the eyes of the Autobot close at hand. She said seriously, “Horus, your father is a good person. He has his reasons for doing everything. He goes to dangerous places and does dangerous things. Sometimes, in order to live, protect some people, and protect you, he has to do something. He has to pay some hardship. This is the hardship you share with him because he’s protecting you. You have to protect him too. Sometimes it’s very tiring, but it’ll get better in the future, right?”
The Autobot was silent for a moment. He looked past Xiaoman at Kang De.
Kang De also smacked his lips and said nothing.
His iron son looked at Xiaoman and said seriously, “Are you really not considering being my mother?”
