Chapter 972: Would You Like to Touch It?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Tianyi spent a short while gazing at Lin Qiao in shock, then let out a few words, “It’s not Chief Wu’s baby, is it?”
Lin Qiao paused with surprise, then stared at him expressionlessly and said, “How-did-you-know!”
Seeing the dangerous look on her face, Lu Tianyi was instantly frightened. “Eh… It was me who told him who you are…”
“What? You told him who I am?” Lin Qiao narrowed her eyes and said.
Lu Tianyi even wanted to raise his hand and wipe the cold sweat off his forehead even though he, as a zombie, didn’t sweat. His sister’s vibe was so strong that he even felt suffocated. He still hadn’t figured out why she became like a total different person after turning into a zombie. It had been so long, but he still hadn’t gotten used to his new sister yet.
“Um… he was trying to find out your ident.i.ty. Qingming and I tried to cover for you, but he found out about it. So, he forced me to tell him… and I… told him.”
Lin Qiao kept staring at him expressionlessly. “So, he learned about who I am from you. You haven’t answered my question yet.”
Lu Tianyi’s pretty face wore a guilty look. At that moment, he looked nothing like the composed young man that he used to be. He looked around, then directly sold Wu Chengyue out. “Wu Chengyue told me himself!” He said, “Qingming knows about it too!”
Lin Qiao didn’t say anything.
As her vibe eased down, Lu Tianyi sighed with relief, then curiously looked at her pregnant belly and said, “He came to me over ten months ago, so your baby… Emm, the baby is coming out soon, isn’t it? Why didn’t you look pregnant at all before? Wait a minute! You’ve been pregnant this whole time, but you were traveling everywhere!”
Thinking about that, Lu Tianyi immediately pulled a long face as he stared at Lin Qiao with both concern and anger in his eyes.
How could that woman run about like that while she was pregnant? Wasn’t she afraid that some accidents might happen? How could a pregnant woman… eh, pregnant zombie, do something like that? She wasn’t thinking about the baby at all…
Then again, not only did Wu Chengyue sleep with a zombie, but also made his zombie sister pregnant. That was unbelievable!
Lu Tianyi even admired him for that.
Lin Qiao sat on the couch, watching the expression on Lu Tianyi’s face change constantly and also sensing the thoughts that were going on in his mind. She felt a little speechless.
“I’m not like those normal pregnant women,” she responded, “And this baby isn’t a normal baby. I know what’s been going on with myself. I’ve been quite careful actually.”
She wasn’t lying. Ever since she knew that she was pregnant with Viney, she had stopped all dangerous activities! However, Lu Tianyi still looked unhappy. This time, he was with a stronger vibe than her.
“Even though this kid isn’t a normal kid and you are not a normal woman, accidents could still happen! Have you ever thought about that? As you know, both you and the baby are special. So, if an accident did happen, no one would be able to help you!” The more he thought about it, the more concerned he got. Lu Tianyi glared at Lin Qiao, and a slight trace of wrathfulness was even detected from his eyes.
That was his nephew! Even if it turned out to be a baby monster, it would still be his nephew, his family, because it was his sister’s baby.
Looking at the unhappy Lu Tianyi, Lin Qiao felt that even Lin Hao, her real brother, was easier to coax than he was.
“Eh-hem… Alright, alright! I’ll be careful! The baby is coming out soon, and we’re both fine now, aren’t we?” Lin Qiao gave a fawning smile and then said to him, “Would you like to touch it?”
Lu Tianyi was not content about what she said at first, but her question made him stunned. He fixed his eyes straight on that round, pregnant belly of hers.
Then, he raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Qiao’s face before swallowing his saliva.
“What? Don’t you want to touch it? This is your niece. She’ll come out soon. She might be a snow-white, tender, chubby baby, or a little zombie.” Detecting the eagerness and hesitation in his eyes, Lin Qiao tempted him with a smile.
Picturing a tender and chubby little baby in his mind, Lu Tianyi instantly collapsed. Then, he walked to Lin Qiao, quickly and nervously.
He walked over to Lin Qiao’s side and stood there as he gazed at her belly without even sitting down. From a shorter distance, he found that belly of hers to be so round! He imagined a thriving baby living in there, which even softened his heart.
Lu Tianyi was a little nervous. He didn’t know why he was nervous though. He wasn’t the father of the baby. Why on earth was he so nervous?
The baby was such a big surprise! He wasn’t the father, but he was the baby’s uncle. It was his first niece.
Before, he couldn’t have imagined that Lu Tianyu would give him a niece because her life was so complicated. More importantly, that woman had a cold heart. She didn’t want a baby, and she didn’t want to have a baby for any man.
Giving birth might ruin her body shape, and she didn’t want to lose her perfect body. She relied on many men for survival, but she never fell in love with any of them, and never thought about giving any of them a child.
He put his hands on that round belly of Lin Qiao and found it to be a little hard. With one slight touch, he retracted his hands and didn’t dare to touch it again. Somehow, he felt as if her belly might explode at any moment, and that it was pretty dangerous…
Lin Qiao watched his reaction with a grin, feeling that he was acting like an innocent boy.
“What’s wrong? Are you afraid that she might bite you?” Lin Qiao smilingly teased him.
“No…” Lu Tianyi was a little embarra.s.sed, which didn’t happen so often. He thought for a moment, then reached out his hands against to touch Lin Qiao’s belly. This time, he was a lot calmer than before.
“She’s been sleeping recently, or she might be able to give you a high-five,” Lin Qiao smilingly dropped her head to look at her own belly and then said gently.
At that moment, Mo Yan and his white-dressed zombie girl, who never left his side, walked in. As same as Lu Tianyi, he paused with surprise when he saw Lin Qiao as well. That breathtakingly pretty face of Mo Yan froze for a few seconds, then wore a shocked look.
“You’re here. Come on and take a seat,” Lin Qiao looked at him and greeted.
After that, she glanced at the two who were sticking their heads out from behind the door: those were Pesticide and Xiao-xiao. They didn’t want to come in, but only looked at Lin Qiao from behind the door.
Mo Yan walked to her and sat down on an armchair, with his eyes fixed on Lin Qiao’s belly. Those eyes of his contained a very complicated look. Meanwhile, the zombie lady was quietly standing behind him.
