Chapter 438: It’s Zombie Mom
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
While Wu Chengyue was listening to Xiao Licheng’s report, Wu Yueling climbed onto the bed before wrapping herself up with a blanket and lying down, pouting the whole time.
She felt very, very uncomfortable, as if something was breaking out of her. She felt awful. Also, she was upset and angry, because she thought that her Daddy had been lying to her all these days, and he didn’t let her see Zombie Sister.
When she angrily lied down, she suddenly felt that there was something under her pillow.
So, she sat back up with confusion and glanced at the pillow, then reached out her little hands to remove it. Next, she saw a tiny green doll under that white pillow.
It was exquisite and pretty.
Wu Yueling’s eyes glowed. The doll was woven from gra.s.s leaves; she knew who made it.
The sullen look on Wu Yueling’s face was gone when she delightedly picked up the gra.s.s doll. She fixed her eyes on the green doll and gently touched its green hair, unable to put it down.
Suddenly, she thought of something and hurriedly raised her head to look around. However, she searched for a while but failed to see the person that she wanted to see.
She lowered her head disappointedly, but soon, the doll in her hand caught her attention again.
So, she sat on the bed and started playing with the doll. The doll smelled nice, like Zombie Sister.
‘No, not Zombie Sister. She’s my new Mom. Last time, Daddy said that Zombie Sister will be my new Mom,’ she told herself.
Outside, Wu Chengyue asked Xiao Licheng, “Can you ask the people from the fifth floor about how we can find her? I feel that Ling Ling is not good today. We need to see that female zombie as soon as possible.”
“Yes,sir! I’ll do it now,” Xiao Licheng responded quickly.
Hearing Wu Chengyue say that Wu Yueling was not good, Xiao Licheng figured that the problem was a little serious. For the little princess’s mental health, he needed to find the female zombie as quickly as he could.
On the roof, Qiu Lili was sitting in a corner, swinging her legs while gazing at the sky. Abruptly, Liu Jun brought a man over.
“Lili, he said that his Chief wants to see Lin… Eh, Miss. Lu for something urgent,” she said.
Qiu Lili lowered her head to look at Xiao Licheng while responding, “I’ve told you that Qiaoqiao wasn’t here the day you arrived, but you insisted on coming here to find her. I think she’s now in her s.p.a.ce absorbing the energy nucleus of that level-seven robber. I don’t know when she’ll come out.”
“Level-seven robber? Who?” Xiao Licheng asked.
Qiu Lili glanced at him, then stood up from the corner of the roof edge and dusted off her dress, even though there wasn’t any actual dust. Before sitting down, she had blown away all the dust in that area.
She leaped down and said, “The level-seven man who escaped from your base earlier.”
“Are you talking about Tang He, the metal-powered man?” Xiao Licheng asked with surprise.
Qiu Lili tilted her head and said, “Ah, so his name was Tang He. Yeah, the metal-powered man. But he already died. Qiaoqiao killed him.”
“Did he really die?” Xiao Licheng slightly widened his eyes, and Qiu Lili nodded in response
Xiao Licheng quickly processed this news, then thought of what he had come here for. “Um, can you please tell me when will Miss. Lu show up? Ling Ling isn’t doing good now, and only she can help. Also, who is Qiaoqiao? Is she Miss. Lu?”
Qiu Lili gave him two glances before nodding and replying, “Yeah, her. Ling Ling? Are you talking about that kid? What’s happening to her?”
Xiao Licheng nodded, but didn’t give out more information.
Liu Jun joined the conversation, “I know. That kid is autistic, but she really likes Miss. Lu. Perhaps, she’s here to see Miss. Lu this time. Miss. Lu didn’t show up, so the kid’s unhappy. So, I guess her illness is about to attack.”
Xiao Licheng nodded and said, “You are right. Ling Ling so looked forward to seeing Miss. Lu. Sadly, we haven’t found her yet.”
Qiu Lili thought for a moment, then responded regretfully, “I’m sorry, but we really don’t know how to find her. I think we can’t help you guys.”
“Alright then, thank you for your time,” While talking, he nodded at Qiu Lili and Liu Jun, then turned and went downstairs.
Qiu Lili said to Liu Jun, “These people have been asking about Qiaoqiao all these days. It turns out that they want Qiaoqiao’s help. I thought they were up to something else, but it seems that they’re just here to ask for help. Do they want Qiaoqiao to cure that kid?”
Liu Jun shook her head and said, “I’m not sure. However, curing an autistic child isn’t something that you can do within a short time.”
“So, that’s why the kid never wanted to play with Tongtong and Xiaolu,” said Qiu Lili.
As a mother, Liu Jun understood how much Wu Chengyue worried about his daughter. She sighed and said, “But, we don’t know when Lin Qiao will come out. The energy contained in a level-seven nucleus is enormous.”
“I don’t think it’ll take too long,” said Qiu Lili, “Qiaoqiao is at level-six now. Although she’s only new at level-six, she can absorb energies quickly. Besides, Viney will help her.”
Liu Jun nodded.
On the other side, Xiao Licheng quickly informed Wu Chengyue that Tang He was killed by Lin Qiao. Wu Chengyue looked at him with surprise, saying, “What! She killed Tang He! Are you sure? Is she already powerful enough to kill a level-seven being all alone?”
“The lady in a white dress named Qiu Lili didn’t seem like a liar. I think what she said is true. So now, Miss. Lu should be in her s.p.a.ce absorbing the energy. That’s why she didn’t show up these days.”
Wu Chengyue nodded and said, “Good then. I thought she was avoiding me on purpose.”
“Why would she do that?” Xiao Licheng didn’t understand.
“Guess,” Wu Chengyue gave him a glance and a mysterious smile.
Xiao Licheng rolled his eyes and responded, “Guess if I’ll guess or not.”
Wu Chengyue glanced at Wu Yueling who was in the bedroom, sitting on the bed alone and playing something, then said, “You’ll know.”
After saying that, he stood up and walked toward the bedroom. Before he came in, Wu Yueling abruptly lied back down and hid herself entirely in the blanket.
Wu Chengyue walked over and sat beside her, gently patting her, “Ling Ling, I just learned that your Zombie Mom is busying on upgrading herself in her s.p.a.ce. She doesn’t have the time to come out to see Ling Ling now. Ling Ling, can you wait longer with Daddy?”
He was expecting no response from Wu Yueling. But to his surprise, the lump under the blanket stayed motionless for a few seconds, then suddenly moved. Wu Yueling stuck her little head out of the blanket and looked at her father with a pair of watery eyes.
Wu Yueling nodded at him, then quickly drew back into the blanket.
Wu Chengyue was surprised. ‘Eh? Why is she suddenly in a better mood? She was so upset just now! Did the words ‘Zombie Mom’ make her happy? Does she like those words?’
