“No! I think you’re very responsible! Hm… hehe…” Lin Qiao laughed and responded.
“Stop laughing! Tell me, if I didn’t mention this, you wouldn’t give Viney to me, would you? Eh? Are you gonna raise her alone?” Wu Chengyue sneered as he stared at her.
Lin Qiao sighed silently. She figured that Viney must have talked with Wu Chengyue already. When would that little thing stop setting traps for her?
“What else do you expect me to do? I thought you wouldn’t want Viney. After all, you were entrapped by her, weren’t you? I thought you’d hate Viney for that. Am I not right?” Lin Qiao said to him.
Hearing Lin Qiao and her father talk about Viney, Wu Yueling had her interest aroused. But soon, the sensitive girl felt that the atmosphere between her father and her Zombie Mom was a little weird.
She anxiously glanced at Lin Qiao, then at Wu Chengyue.
“You! When did I say that I hate Viney? You said that!” Wu Chengyue’s expression froze for a moment, and then he glared at Lin Qiao as he said angrily.
“I’m only thinking from a normal person’s angle. After all, you didn’t know Viney before, but she drugged you and made you dedicate yourself to… Well, I guess all men would hate that. Don’t you hate that? It’s pretty strange!” Lin Qiao deliberately mentioned the fact that Viney entrapped Wu Chengyue to make him dislike her.
But soon, she was disappointed.
“I was angry at first. However, what happened can’t be undone, and I will handle the consequences. I will take the responsibility, and I should get what I deserve. I deserve the baby, don’t I?” Wu Chengyue restrained the anger in his heart as he knew that the female zombie was trying to make him angry.
“You’re right though… Come here, Ling Ling, let me take you to see the little tiger!” Lin Qiao responded, then quickly scooped up Wu Yueling and disappeared right before Wu Chengyue’s eyes.
Wu Chengyue was left in the room with a stiff face.
Soon, rage was shown on his face. d.a.m.n! That female zombie ran away in front of him, and took away his Ling Ling… all because she couldn’t win the argument!
The anger exploded inside Wu Chengyue. However, he didn’t know how to vent it as she had disappeared. With no other choice, he sat there and forced himself to calm back down, with veins bulging on his temples.
‘Good for you, female zombie. Just wait and see!’
Lin Qiao flashed into her s.p.a.ce with Wu Yueling, then sneakily observed Wu Chengyue’s expression from the inside. Afterward, she sighed with relief and laughed.
“I now feel that your father is a little difficult!” she said to Wu Yueling, “Viney has got me big trouble!”
While speaking, she guided the girl into the small building.
‘What does difficult mean?’ Wu Yueling raised her head to look at Lin Qiao, her big eyes filled with confusion.
“It means… Like the gum that the other people spit on the ground. If you step on it, it will stick on the bottom of your shoe, and stay there for a long time!” Lin Qiao explained to her, but forgot that chewing gums had disappeared after the apocalypse.
As a result, she heard Wu Yueling asking another question in her head.
‘What’s gum?’
Lin Qiao stayed silent.
After a short pause, Lin Qiao thought for a moment, then explained, “It’s a type of candy that you can only chew. It’s sweet, but you can’t swallow it. When its flavor fades away, you need to spit it out. The gum that you spat out would become very sticky. If it sticks on your shoes, it’d never come off.”
Wu Yueling knitted her little brows, thinking about the few keywords.
‘Chewed, with saliva… spat out… stick on shoes… So disgusting!’
Reading her mind, Lin Qiao laughed and rubbed her head. She brought the latter to the little tiger, then pointed at it and said to her, “See, that’s the little tiger.”
It was the first time that Wu Yueling saw a tiger. She was immediately attracted by the fluffy tiger which had beautiful black stripes.
“Has your Daddy told you about the animal world?” Lin Qiao squatted and said to Wu Yueling while looking at the little tiger which was woken up by Wu Yueling’s scent.
“Roar!” The baby tiger tried to bite Lin Qiao’s finger which was pointing at it, but failed.
The little thing hadn’t eaten in a couple of days. Lin Qiao didn’t feed it with meat, but only let it drink water. It was so hungry that it could barely struggle up from the ground.
Lin Qiao knew that it was hungry, but in order to heal it and improve its body condition, she couldn’t feed meat to it for now, and could only give it the lake water. With the lake water, the tiger would definitely not die of starvation.
Wu Yueling hid behind Lin Qiao as she fixed her eyes on the tiger, feeling both scared and curious. She had never seen such an animal before. She liked the little tiger’s stripes, but seeing the teeth in its widely opened mouth, she was a little scared.
…
On the other side, Yan Fangyu was sent out of Upper City Base. Finally, somebody fixed her disjointed shoulders, which gave her a real pain.
“That evil woman! I’ll certainly make her suffer!” Sitting in the backseat of a car, Yan Fangyu said coldly. The two people in the front seat and the driver’s seat frowned upon hearing that.
Those were Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming, who went to watch the show but missed it, and ended up being spotted by Wu Chengyue. Wu Chengyue gave them a task, which was to send Yan Fangyu back to Sea City Base.
They missed the show, but heard about what happened from the others who were on the scene. However, they didn’t expect that Wu Chengyue would make them drive Yan Fangyu back to their base. As for the reason, it was because they were all Zou s.h.i.+hui’s subordinates.
Both of them were pretty unhappy. The two of them and Yan Fangyu were all under Zou s.h.i.+hui’s command, but they never had a good relations.h.i.+p with her.
Besides, Yan Fangyu had done bad things to Lu Tianyu. She did it before, and now, she had done it again.
Lu Tianyi wanted to see Lu Tianyu, but didn’t manage to. He heard that she had become a Chief already. He was going to see if her vibe was strong enough. But in the end, he didn’t even see a trace of Lu Tianyu, and ended up watching Yan Fangyu’s twisted face.
At that moment, Lu Tianyi was extremely upset, so his face was especially dark. When he heard Yan Fangyu’s curse, the look on his face turned sulkier and sulkier.
Kong Qingming wasn’t as upset as he was, but he did understand how Lu Tianyi felt. He glanced at Lu Tianyi’s grim face, then at Yan Fangyu who was in the backseat. As Yan Fangyu wasn’t paying attention to them, he sneakily poked Lu Tianyi with a finger.
Lu Tianyi, who was driving the car, turned to look at him with confusion.
“Slow down. Are you gonna fly?” While speaking, Kong Qingming cast a glance backward.
Lu Tianyi immediately understood his meaning. Kong Qingming was reminding him to keep his emotions in check. Kong Qingming was right. He had been driving terribly fast because he was in a bad mood. Anyways, Yan Fangyu didn’t notice it.
Lu Tianyi slowed the car down and said, “If only we could fly!”
