Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Leng Xuantong injected the mixed juice of catmint and the roots into the underground gorilla from Lin Qiao’s s.p.a.ce. The gorilla, which was roaring ragingly a minute ago, instantly fell to the ground and stopped moving.
“I wonder if this kind of mutated catmint can help Yuan Tianxing with his condition. Give me some of it, I’ll give it a try,” Lin Qiao stood outside and looked into the room. Yuan Tianxing’s condition crossed her mind, so she asked Leng Xuantong for a tube-full of mutated catmint juice.
Leng Xuantong nodded and asked Bao Xiaoying to bring a tube of pure catmint juice and give it to her.
“Are you guys going with me? Shouldn’t you be going back to Sea City?” Lin Qiao turned to say to Wu Chengyue and Xiao Licheng once she walked out of Leng Xuantong’s lab. She had a lot to do for the rest of the day, and she would, of course, not do them together with Wu Chengyue. He should be leaving. He had stayed in her base for such a long time. Was this place his home?
“Alright then. I should be heading back indeed.” As she had told him to leave so straightforwardly, Wu Chengyue had no choice but to obediently give her son back to her, then ask Xiao Licheng’s prepare the vehicle.
Lin Qiao sat into his car and said to Duan Juan, “Let’s go to Mount Wu first.”
“Aren’t we gonna try the drug on Deputy Chief Yuan first?” Duan Juan asked with confusion.
Lin Qiao held Teng and rubbed his head. Teng didn’t like that, so he slapped off his mother’s hand over and over again.
“No. We’re going to put Lu Tianyi and his people into the s.p.a.ce first. The vegetables in the s.p.a.ce are going bad!” Lin Qiao said to Duan Juan while playing with Teng.
“Oh, I see!” Duan Yuan responded and drove the car out of Base Number Two, to Mount Wu Farm. Liu Jun and Xie Dong were already waiting for them on the road.
“Where’s Lu Tianyi?” Lin Qiao carried Teng off the car, then asked Liu Jun.
“On the mountain,” Liu Jun turned and pointed in one direction.
Lin Qiao nodded and walked toward the cabin, “Send someone to tell him and his people to come here.”
Liu Jun nodded and waved a hand. Following her move, a male zombie leader came to her. As she gave her order, the zombie immediately flashed toward the area that she pointed at earlier.
While Lin Qiao and the others went to the clearing before the cabin, Tongtong ran out of the cabin. He stopped short and fell into silence when he saw Lin Qiao.
“Aunty Lin!” The boy stood by the door and called Lin Qiao, then carefully glanced at his mother.
Lin Qiao looked at Tongtong and nodded at him smilingly. “Tongtong has grown taller. The kid is growing fast.”
On hearing her words, Tongtong gathered his courage to slowly move toward Xie Dong. His eyes were fixed on Teng all the time though.
“Do you want to play with Teng? Come here and hold him.” Detecting the expectant look in the boy’s eyes, Lin Qiao said to him.
Teng held his mother’s neck and said worriedly, “Tongtong isn’t strong enough to carry me, is he?”
He didn’t want to fall on the ground!
“How can you know without trying?” Lin Qiao looked at him and said.
Receiving her invitation, Tongtong excitedly walked to her. However, when he heard Teng’s words, he stopped and started struggling. He had never held Teng before. Lin Xiaolu and Wu Yueling had been the ones holding the baby. They were both older and stronger than he was.
However, Tongtong looked at Teng’s tiny body and felt that he should be able to carry the baby boy.
Still, he was a little worried, as Teng didn’t seem to want to be held by him.
Lin Qiao didn’t give him any time for hesitation. She put Teng directly before him and encouraged, “It’s okay. This boy is weightless. You can hold him. Give him to us when you feel tired.”
While speaking, she put Teng into Tongtong’s arms.
Teng was growing faster than normal children indeed, but he wasn’t heavy. He was about four kilograms when he was born, and around five as of now. Tongtong should be able to hold him.
As Lin Qiao suddenly put Teng into his arms, Tongtong automatically reached out to catch him.
“Put a hand under his b.u.t.t and hold his back with the other hand, so he won’t fall,” Lin Qiao taught Tongtong how to hold the baby boy, then left her son to him.
At that time, Lu Tianyi came over with a group of zombies.
A couple of days ago, Long Qingying kicked Kong Qingming back to Sea City Base. So, Lu Tianyi dropped his work and came back to All Being Base. He had to continue doing Kong Qingming’s works for him though, so the latter could spend time with his girlfriend.
“Come on, pack your things! The strawberries in my s.p.a.ce are about to go bad, and so are the vegetables,” Lin Qiao said once she saw him.
Liu Jun and Xie Dong started to prepare some empty baskets for her. She put all the baskets into her s.p.a.ce, then brought Lu Tianyi and the group of level-four zombies all into the s.p.a.ce and told them to harvest the vegetables and strawberries.
“I’m gonna try solving Yuan Tianxing’s problem first. When I come out, Xie Dong, summon all level five and six zombies among the ones who carried out the most recent mission with us and are ready to upgrade. Gather them where the troop is stationed. The others will wait for the next time. I’ll bring them into my s.p.a.ce to help with the upgrade. Tell them to get their nuclei ready.” Before entering the s.p.a.ce, Lin Qiao gave Xie Dong an order.
“Yes, Ma’am!” Xie Dong immediately responded to her, then turned and left.
Lin Qiao turned and glanced at Teng, who was still held in Tongtong’s arms, and said to the boy, “You stay here playing with Tongtong. I’ll come pick you up when I’m done.”
“Oh, okay,” Teng looked at her and nodded.
Duan Juan had found a stool for Tongtong to sit down, so he could put Teng on his knees and the baby boy wouldn’t fall. Duan Juan and Liu Jun had both been keeping a close eye on the two boys, in case any accident happened.
Lin Qiao entered the s.p.a.ce to find Lu Tianyi and his zombies had already scattered in the fields, picking beans, melons, strawberries, and all other kinds of vegetables. Lin Qiao’s strawberry fields had grown much larger than before. Without being harvested for about two weeks, those big and juicy strawberries were already perfectly ripe.
There were no seasons in her s.p.a.ce. Both the air and the soil in the s.p.a.ce contained a special type of energy. Therefore, the plants in the s.p.a.ce had been growing and fruiting constantly.
The zombies only turned and gave her a glance when she showed up, then continued doing their work. Lin Qiao released a cloud of dark mist to cover herself, then took off her clothes and put them on the chair, which had been standing there all the time, by the lakeside. After that, she dove into the water along with the dark mist and soon dragged Yuan Tianxing out of the water.
She put on her clothes, then covered the sensitive part of Yuan Tianxing’s body with a s.h.i.+rt. Next, she took out the tube of catmint juice that Leng Xuantong gave her.
