Lin Wenwen glanced at Lin Qiao’s lower abdomen. At that very moment, her pupils expanded and lost focus. It took her a while to recover to normal. She hesitated for tens of seconds, then asked, “Sister, did Viney grow a little bit?”
Lin Qiao looked at her own belly with a gentle look in her eyes and said, “You can see that?”
Lin Wenwen blinked quickly while murmuring, “I saw it… I saw it…”
Then, she fixed her eyes on Lin Qiao’s belly which was covered under her clothes with excitement and said, “I saw it!”
Lin Qiao looked at her confusedly, asking, “You saw what?”
Lin Wenwen looked at her in the eyes and said to her excitedly, “I saw you give birth to the baby!”
Just now when she looked at Lin Qiao’s stomach, an image suddenly popped up in her head and occupied her mind. Lin Qiao was lying in an operation room with hair disheveled. Her pretty face looked a little twisted; her eyes purely black, and pupils sparkling with a green light. She was biting a towel roll. Her teeth were so sharp that the towel was torn long ago.
Lin Hao was in the operation room wearing a hazmat suit and a mask, standing by Lin Qiao’s bed. He looked agitated like an ant on a hot pan. Shen Yujen and Liu were a.s.sisting him.
Soon, she heard a baby cry, and then the image disappeared. The baby’s cry caught her attention and woke her up at last.
Hearing what her sister said, Lin Qiao slightly widened her eyes and said with surprise, “What? Can you even see that?”
Lin Wenwen was still excited. She nodded quickly, then abruptly stood up as she fixed her eyes on Lin Qiao’s belly. But soon, she sighed with disappointment. Then, she sat down frustratedly and said, “But, I didn’t see the baby. I didn’t see if it’s a boy or a girl. I heard a loud baby cry though.”
Speaking of that, she laughed and looked at Lin Qiao’s belly with glowing eyes.
Lin Qiao’s smile grew bigger when she heard that. She was slightly affected by Lin Wenwen’s excitement. Lin Wenwen’s words could be counted as a good sign. At least, those words relieved her a little from her worries.
“I hope I can bring her to the world safely just like the way you saw,” said Lin Qiao.
She had been worrying that her zombie body might not be able to give birth to the baby safely.
After talking to Lin Wenwen about the latter’s new ability, Lin Qiao brought her to the school for a meeting. Yuan Tianxing and the others had been waiting for her in the conference room for long.
All kinds of files had been placed on the table before her chair. Some of those were given to her last night by Xie Dong, and she had roughly read those.
“Those people who newly joined our base were against Long Yubai when he decided to attack Hades Base. So, in fact, they’re friends and not enemies. It was easy for us to accept them, but… about the people who might come in the future, things might not be so smooth,” Yuan Tianxing looked at Lin Qiao and said.
Lin Qiao nodded, as she had foreseen that. Without changing her expression, she said, “We can’t do anything to help it. Those people don’t seem to want to come to us anyway. I think the next batch won’t arrive that soon.”
The others nodded in agreement.
All Being Base was new, immature, and underpopulated. It neither looked safe, nor reliable. Most people believed that Sea City Base and Huaxia Base were better choices. The situation in Huaxia Base was turning for the better, and they would soon clean out the zombies outside their base. Currently, the anti-zombie drug that they developed had been put to good use.
“The wall of the human base is almost done. By the time it’s completed, we’ll move out of the hotel to the other side. Since we have stayed in the hotel, don’t put people in it. Tear that place down and rebuild it. Also, expand the underground granary,” Lin Qiao looked at Yuan Tianxing and said.
“Okay,” Yuan Tianxing nodded while writing something on a notebook.
Yuan Tianxing, Lin Feng, and Chen Yuting had been handling all the works in the human base very well. Lin Qiao read their plans and some other filesback and gave a few suggestions. Apart from those, no problem was found. The farm under Liu Jun’s management was expecting a lot of work because Lu Tianyi had successfully brought out the first batch of seedlings and seeds that he grew in the s.p.a.ce, and planted them near the sweet potato field.
Lin Qiao sent the zombies back into her s.p.a.ce, then told Yuan Tianxing to recruit people to work on the farm. Liu Jun and Lu Tianyi were still in charge of the agriculture department. They were t.i.tled as department leader number one and department leader number two.
Lu Tianyi looked exactly like a human, and even his eyes remained to be like human eyes. Meanwhile, Liu Jun would either wear sungla.s.ses or cosmetic contacts to cover her black eyes.
The group of zombies who had followed Lin Qiao the longest had mostly lost their zombie features. Currently, except for their pale skin and dark eyes, they looked almost like humans in clean clothes.
The meeting lasted for two hours. After saying what she needed to say, Lin Qiao waved a hand and said, “Alright, this is it!”
The people immediately stood up and packed their things, then grabbed their cups and files and walked out.
Lin Qiao was the last one to stand up. She didn’t need to pack her things, because Shen Yujen, her a.s.sistant, would do it for her.
She stood up and made a few steps, then suddenly felt dizzy.
“Eh…” Lin Qiao felt head suddenly became so heavy that it nearly threw her to the ground. She shambled slightly, then leaned against the back of the chair next to her, propping her head with a palm.
“Chief!” Shen Yujen, who was sorting files, gave a start when she saw Lin Qiao shamble and b.u.mp into a chair. She hurriedly dropped the files and stepped up to Lin Qiao.
“Chief, what’s wrong?” Her voice was dry but high-pitched. That voice made Lin Qiao a little uncomfortable.
Lin Qiao buried her forehead in her palm and knitted her brows into a deep frown. After taking a long breath, she slowly stood straight.
“I’m fine. Tell Duan Juan to inform Lin Hao that I’ll go to him for a check-up later. Tell him to be ready,” Lin Qiao said to Shen Yujen when the dizziness eased a little.
“Okay,” Shen Yujen responded. While looking at Lin Qiao with concern, she quickly stepped backward to the door and said a few words to Duan Juan, who was standing by the door.
On hearing what she said, Duan Juan was slightly surprised. She stuck her head into the room to look at Lin Qiao and saw the latter standing beside the chair motionlessly with her eyes closed, brows knitted. She did look unwell.
“Just send someone to inform Lin Hao,” Shen Yujen said to Duan Juan.
Duan Juan turned back and nodded, then left to do that.
