Chapter 577: Ling Ling’s Power
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Xiaolu happily carried the big gray rabbit and followed Lin Qiao downstairs. In the lobby, the latter let Wu Yueling sit next to her.
Wu Yueling lay on her lap, putting her arms around Lin Qiao’s waist.
“Eh? Why is Ling Ling holding Aunty’s waist?” Lin Xiaolu sat beside Wu Yueling with the rabbit, looking at her confusedly. “Ling Ling, who are you talking to?”
Lin Xiaolu’s power allowed her to sense Wu Yueling’s strange behavior. The latter was talking to someone, but that someone wasn’t Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao had also noticed that Lin Xiaolu was able to read Wu Yueling’s unguarded mind, then thought of her power. After that, she thought of Wu Yueling’s power too.
Wu Yueling’s power had woken up before. However, the little girl seemed to have never used it yet. Lin Qiao wondered if she knew what her power was.
“Ling Ling, do you know what kind of power you have?” Lin Qiao pulled Wu Yueling up from her lap and asked.
Wu Yueling looked at her confusedly and shook her head. At that time, Wu Chengyue walked over and sat on the other side of the couch.
“Hasn’t she used her power yet?” Lin Qiao raised her head and looked at Wu Chengyue. It had already been a month since the girl triggered her power. She should have used her power already.
“No. I don’t know what her power is,” Wu Chengyue shook his head. He was very curious about Ling Ling’s power, but every time he asked her about her power, the little girl seemed to be confused.
At that time, a voice came into Lin Qiao’s mind from her belly— ‘Mama, Mama, I know, I know… It’s healing power! The little one’s energy has a healing power. It can cure injuries and illness.’
“Eh? Healing power?” Lin Qiao slightly lowered her head and said with surprise.
Her words confused Wu Chengyue. “What do you mean? Who has healing power?”
“The little one,” Lin Qiao looked at him and said.
“How do you know!” Wu Chengyue looked at her in shock. Even he didn’t know that! How did she know? Also, she just asked him about it.
“Oh? Aunty, are you talking about Ling Ling’s power? She can heal wounds! She healed her own wound earlier,” Lin Xiaolu looked at Lin Qiao and said. She seemed to have understood the conversation between her and Wu Chengyue.
“Her own wound? When was she injured?” Lin Qiao looked at Lin Xiaolu, then glanced at Wu Chengyue. The kid was injured before. Didn’t he know about it?
“I really didn’t know about it! Ling Ling, when were you injured? Come to Daddy,” Wu Chengyue was very surprised. He looked at Wu Yueling with confusion, prepared to give her a check-up. The smile on his face had disappeared.
However, Wu Yueling turned and gave him a glance, then shook her head and just kept holding Lin Qiao.
“Now you have her, so you don’t want your Daddy anymore, right?” Wu Chengyue clicked his tongue as he looked at Wu Yueling with a sad face.
At that time, Lin Xiaolu said, “Last time… Last time when Ling Ling came here and played with us, she fell accidentally and her palm was grazed a little. But, that wound healed quickly, and she didn’t shed any blood.”
Lin Xiaolu recalled that Wu Yueling’s palm was grazed by a little stone last time. She tore off that broken skin in front of her, but the wound was healed completely within a blink, as if her skin had never broken at all.
They should have told an adult about that, but later on, they had fun and forgot about it.
“Is that true, Ling Ling?” Lin Qiao lowered her head and asked Wu Yueling.
Wu Yueling thought for a moment, then nodded.
‘See, I’m not wrong, am I?’ Viney said in Lin Qiao’s mind.
“Can Ling Ling heal other people as well?” Lin Qiao asked her.
‘She can if she wants to.’ Viney responded.
At that moment, Xiao Licheng walked over and nodded at Lin Qiao, then said to Wu Chengyue, “We’re all ready.”
Then, Wu Chengyue said to Wu Yueling, “Alright, Ling Ling! Have you had enough hugging her? If you have, we can head back.”
Hearing him talk about heading back, Wu Yueling immediately refused. She held Lin Qiao, turned and showed the back of her head to her Daddy.
‘I’ve just started to talk to Viney! And you want me to leave?’
“Alright, Ling Ling, just go home with your Daddy.I also have work to do!” Lin Qiao patted Wu Yueling’s little head and said. However, Wu Yueling raised her head and looked at her with tearful eyes.
“Eh…” This time, Lin Qiao didn’t know what to do.
“Ling Ling, come over! We’ll come here and play with them next time. Daddy needs to go home and work!” Wu Chengyue coaxed Ling Ling.
At that time, Viney whispered to Wu Yueling— ‘Little one, just go home with Daddy. Next time, I’ll tell Mama to visit you!”
Lin Qiao pretended not to hear that. She lifted Wu Yueling up and put her on the ground. The little girl was wearing many clothes.
The weather had already turned very cold. After the last rain, the air temperature had dropped greatly. As a zombie, Lin Qiao was afraid of heat, but the cold weather could barely affect her.
Unlike her, Wu Yueling, Lin Xiaolu and Tongtong were already wearing thick cotton-padded coats, especially Tongtong.
Tongtong was the smallest among the three kids. In those thick clothes, he looked like a ball.
Wu Yueling was rather obedient to Viney. When Viney told her that she would tell her Zombie Mother to visit her, she asked a question in her heart.
“Really?”
‘Yeah, yeah!’
Hearing that, Wu Yueling let go of Lin Qiao, then turned and walked toward Wu Chengyue.
Wu Chengyue looked at Lin Qiao and said, “I think your base will be very busy in the coming days. I’ll let you do your work then.”
Lin Qiao stood up and said to him politely, “Goodbye!”
Wu Chengyue left with Wu Yueling, who wasn’t willing to go. The female zombie was so vigilant against him. Clearly, it wouldn’t be easy to win her trust. He had to be patient and do it step by step.
For some reason, he felt that the female zombie was even further away from him this time than before. Was he wrong?
This time, Lu Tianyu had given him a new kind of feeling of novelty, which made him wonder how she became a zombie like that.
After Wu Chengyue left, Lin Qiao showed a thoughtful look.
‘That man’s power level, seems… or… has he broken into level-eight already? ‘ She wondered. He had been trying his best to restrain his vibe, but still, Lin Qiao sensed some of it. After all, she was rather close to him before.
Lin Qiao glanced at the door where Wu Chengyue left from, then said to Duan Juan who had been sitting silently beside her, “Later, you go and tell Yuan Tianxing, Lin Feng and Chen Yuting to go to the conference room. I’m going to hold a meeting… Oh, tell Qiu Lili and Yun Meng to come too.”
“Yes,” Duan Juan nodded, then turned and left.
