‘Isn’t the energy I absorbed enough for you? ‘ Lin Qiao asked .
She absorbed a lot of nuclei every single night! However, it turned out that the energy she absorbed wasn’t enough to feed the baby!
‘Not enough !’ said Viney .
‘How long do I need to stay around him? Don’t tell me that I’ll have to stay with him until you’re born !’ Lin Qiao continued .
That would be horrible!
At the same time, she wrote on the paper to answer Wu Chengyue’s question—’My energy is drained . My body turned invisible to protect itself . ’
Viney responded to her, ‘Em, I don’t know… Probably not too long…’
Lin Qiao didn’t know what to say . ‘Probably? You made this happen and you don’t even know how long it’s gonna last?’
Viney felt that Lin Qiao was a little angry, so she immediately hid away without making any other sound in her mind .
Wu Chengyue read Lin Qiao’s note while paying attention to Wu Yueling . Finally, he learned about what was going on .
He looked at the time . It was about time for Ling Ling to go to her room and read . So, he said to the little girl who wouldn’t look at him, “Ling Ling, it’s your reading time . Would you like to go upstairs and read with Daddy?”
Wu Yueling had read the same story over and over again to learn every single word in that story . The pictures in the book and her father’s explanations helped her understand the story .
She liked reading, and she memorized every word that her father taught her . She couldn’t write those words yet, but at least she could read them .
However, the little girl was still mad at her father at the moment . So, she ignored her father and kept holding Lin Qiao’s lap .
Thinking that the little girl was getting a little emotional earlier, Wu Chengyue gave up . The little girl couldn’t be pushed, and could only follow her interests .
Normally, she would be happy to read, but not tonight .
Wu Chengyue thought for a moment, then said to Lin Qiao smilingly, “How about I show you your room? Since you can’t leave, maybe you should stay here for a while . ”
Where else could she possibly go?
Lin Qiao rolled her eyes, then knocked the tea table with the pen .
Wu Chengyue looked at Ling Ling, who was still lying on Ling Qiao’s lap, and said, “Ling Ling, let’s go upstairs together . Let’s bring your Zombie… Aunty to her room to rest…”
Lin Qiao felt a little speechless when she heard what he said .
She was thirty-six years old, so calling her Aunty was fine . However, she felt weird about the pause that Wu Chengyue made between the word ‘zombie’ and ‘Aunty’ .
Wu Yueling got up from Lin Qiao’s lap and held her hand as she headed upstairs . Lin Qiao glanced at the rabbit that was curling in a corner of the couch, then asked the girl, ‘Ling Ling, don’t you want your rabbit?’
Wu Yueling paused briefly, then turned and looked around . With her eyes on the rabbit, she dropped Lin Qiao’s hand and ran back to the couch to pick the rabbit up .
Wu Chengyue walked upstairs while looking at the little girl . Lin Qiao waited until Wu Yueling followed behind her father like a little tail, then headed upstairs as well .
He knew that zombies didn’t need to sleep, but he also knew that Lin Qiao would absorb energy during night time .
Lin Qiao knocked on the door to respond to him, then walked into the room . After that, Wu Chengyue prepared to bring Wu Yueling upstairs to her own room . However, the little girl dodged her father’s hand and ran to the bed in Lin Qiao’s room .
Clearly, she didn’t want to go back to her own room .
Wu Chengyue looked at her helplessly and gave up on his original plan . “Please, take care of her,” he said to Lin Qiao . “Ling Ling, don’t be naughty! Do what Zombie Aunty says, alright?”
Wu Yueling was not going to respond to him .
What Zombie Aunty? She was Zombie Mommy .
The little girl was not going to change that .
Lin Qiao glanced at the girl, then knocked on the door again . Wu Chengyue left the guest room and walked into his study room to continue his work . Meanwhile, Lin Qiao closed the door and sat on the bed, looking at Wu Yueling .
She wanted to communicate with the girl properly, but was afraid that the girl might get emotional again . The little girl was having some strange thoughts which were growing stronger and stronger .
Wu Yueling held the rabbit as she sat on the bed . She looked around, as if she didn’t feel Lin Qiao’s presence .
Lin Qiao moved to her side and thought for a moment, then couldn’t help but put a hand on her head and ask, ‘Ling Ling, do you want a Mommy?’
Wu Yueling immediately turned to her and nodded .
Lin Qiao sighed and continued with, ‘Except me, is there anyone else you want as your Mommy?’
Wu Yueling shook her head and then nodded .
‘No! No one else! I want you . ’
Lin Qiao said to her slowly, ‘But, I’m not human . I’m a zombie . I can’t live with you guys for long . We should find you a human Mommy . ’
Hearing that, Wu Yueling’s eyes immediately turned red and tearful .
Lin Qiao didn’t know what to say . She really shouldn’t mention it .
Looking at the sobbing little girl, She felt quite helpless . She was really not good at dealing with kids, as they were innocent and stubborn .
Wu Yueling looked at Lin Qiao and asked her with both sadness and confusion, ‘Why can’t you live with us? You don’t bite, and you don’t eat people . ’
Lin Qiao said, ‘I don’t do that now, but I can’t guarantee that I won’t do that in the future . What if I became crazy someday? I might hurt you, your father, or someone else . ’
Wu Yueling dropped her head and a tear fell out of her eyes . She hurriedly wiped it with the back of her hands, then turned and threw herself onto the bed with her back to Lin Qiao .
‘This looks familiar… ‘ Lin Qiao thought .
Back in All Beings Base, people had spent an entire afternoon looking for their Chief, but failed to find her . It was as if she vanished into thin air .
Lin Hao was the most anxious one among all, as he knew that all sorts of things had been happening to Lin Qiao lately . He couldn’t let too many people know about what happened, so he went to talk to Lin Feng about it .
“Haven’t you found her yet?” Seeing Lin Feng come into the office, Lin Hao immediately stood up . The frown on the former’s face gave him the answer .
Lin Feng shook his head and said, “We’ve looked everywhere, but we couldn’t find her . Weren’t you two with her the whole time? Did you notice anything unusual before she disappeared?” He asked Duan Juan and Shen Yujen .
The two nodded while Shen Yujen responded, “I could sense Chief’s vibe from Doctor Lin’s office the whole time . I thought she never left . Besides, she didn’t mention anything that needed to be dealt with . Even if there were an accident, we should have heard some noises at least . ”
The others all wore a sullen look on their faces .
