Lin Qiao took off her clothes and hat, then walked into the water naked; her hair were still super short.
“Viney, I need to talk to you about my hair. Can you make my hair grow slightly longer this time? Even though my hair can grow by themselves now, I’ll still have to wait for one or two months before I can show them to the others!” While speaking, she walked toward the lake.
Viney stooped before her, then held her hand with a vine and said, ‘Hmm… em… If there’s a man doing this together with us, Mama’s hair will grow long… But, there isn’t a man now, so Mama, your hair can’t grow.’
Lin Qiao didn’t know what to say.
Why did it require a man?
“You’re a kid. Don’t always talk about me finding a man. Aren’t you ashamed?”
Viney rolled her big eyes toward Lin Qiao, saying, ‘Viney isn’t ashamed… hm…’
Lin Qiao didn’t know what to say. ‘Who are her parents? I just don’t have any control over this kid!’
Lin Qiao walked into the lake while thinking. As the water reached her chest, she raised her arms and dove down. Viney swam around her like a large, jade-white octopus; her six root legs and the cl.u.s.ter of vine hair were paddling in the water. Meanwhile, she reached out a few vines to drag Lin Qiao down to the bottom of the lake.
Lin Qiao had been at the bottom once, so she knew that the lake was very deep. This time, being dragged by Viney, she found that she was sinking down really quickly. More specifically, Viney was diving down quite quickly.
Before long, they arrived at the bottom of the lake and landed on the dark-red ground.
Viney planted her six little root legs into the ground. After that, Lin Qiao popped her eyes and watched the other’s body and the veins grow larger and larger, longer and larger.
Lin Qiao was shocked while standing on the bottom of the lake, looking at Viney’s huge body.
If they were on the outside, Viney’s body would have occupied about three or four hundred meters squared area.
Seeing the countless leg-thick vines dancing in the water, Lin Qiao’s scalp was a little numb.
At that point, Viney’s eyes weren’t of a regular size anymore. Lin Qiao raised her head and looked at those enormous green eyes that were glowing among those vines like two searchlights.
At that very moment, Lin Qiao felt she herself was just a tiny being.
What a huge vine!
Viney reached down a few small vines to coil around Lin Qiao’s body, then wrapped her up layer by layer. Lin Qiao had experienced that for a few times before. So, she was already used to being wrapped in Viney’s vines by now.
She lost her eyesight temporarily while a great amount of green energy started seeping into her skin. That numb and itchy feeling made her want to give a long sigh, as it felt comfortable and nice.
As a zombie, she was actually able to feel that. She wasn’t sure if it was good or bad.
Recalling that last time Wu Chengyue bit her on her thigh, she felt that her current body was really sensitive. It was like her old skin had fallen off, and her new skin was still growing. Even a slight touch would stimulate her tactile nervous system.
Soon, she sensed a warmth spiraling in her stomach and expanding from her stomach. It reached to her lower abdomen from her arm, then went up to her chest. It was circulating up and down regularly.
While Viney was helping Lin Qiao enter the repairing mode, Wu Chengyue arrived on the outside.
“Chief Wu is here,” Wei Jingchen opened the door to inform the people in the living room as he saw Wei Jingchen show up on the stairs. Yuan Tianxing and the others weren’t surprised. It was already two o’clock in the afternoon. No matter how busy Chief Wu had been, he should have completed a phase by now.
“Chief Wu is here to pick up little Ling Ling, right?” said Lin Wenwen.
“I think so. Ling Ling, your daddy is here,” Yuan Tianxing looked at Wu Yueling and said.
After Lin Qiao went back into her s.p.a.ce, Wu Yueling had been sitting on the couch and spending time alone, without talking to anyone else. Hearing Yuan Tianxing say that her Daddy was here, she immediately turned to look at the door, but didn’t get off the couch.
Wu Chengyue was still wearing that long and formfitting military coat, along with a pair of army boots. As he walked in, the lower hem of his coat swayed gently along with the wind stirred up by his movements.
“Ling Ling, Daddy is here to pick you up,” Wu Chengyue walked in with a faint smile. He nodded at Yuan Tianxing at first, then talked to Wu Yueling. However, his precious daughter didn’t rush to him at the sight of him as he expected.
Before, his daughter would react so every time after she spent some time alone in a strange environment.
However, she did not do that this time.
Following behind Wu Chengyue, were Meng Yue and Moli.
The data that Moli had was very important. She was also a researcher, so Wu Chengyue was worried that an accident might happen to her like what happened to Liang Dashu. Therefore, he asked her to follow him after she handed him the data.
“Congratulations, Chief Wu! You’ve successfully cleaned out all the people who were against you. From now on, this base will be ruled by only two leaders. The base was divided into three parts, but in the future, they will merge into two,” Yuan Tianxing said to Wu Chengyue with a grin. After all, Wu Chengyue had prepared for long before attaining this opportunity to strike back and win. Even though Miss. Lu had been causing troubles, he still achieved a rich harvest.
Wu Chengyue smiled and responded, “That’s nothing. Your new base will be greater than ours.”
Yuan Tianxing pointed at a couch and offered him a seat while saying, “It’s still too early to talk about that. It’ll require two or three years for us to build the base.”
Wu Chengyue sat down beside Wu Yueling and said, “Two or three years, that’s not a long time. It’ll pa.s.s real soon.”
Yuan Tianxing nodded in agreement, “You’re right.”
Wu Chengyue glanced around, then asked, “Where’s Miss. Lu? Why isn’t she here? I want to thank her for what she did this morning. Without her help, I might not have been able to find a reason to get rid of Yang Chao so fast officially.”
His words sounded friendly, but Yuan Tianxing and the others dug out some other meanings from them. As they thought, that female zombie wouldn’t just stay quiet and watch! She was a trouble-maker!
Lin Wenwen grinned and said, “Miss. Lu is in her s.p.a.ce. She might not be able to come out now.”
Before she continued talking, she raised her head and abruptly saw something strange. Then, she fixed her eyes on the top of Wu Chengyue’s head with astonishment.
Noticing her reaction, the others all raised their heads to find a few white vines which were as thick as women’s lower legs, reaching down from the ceiling quickly toward Wu Yueling.
Realizing what was happening, Wu Chengyue didn’t manage to make other reaction but pressed Wu Yueling into his arm without thinking
