nLin Qiao silently looked at Liu Jun and threatened the latter with her eyes, ‘I’ll hit you if you don’t shut up.’
nLiu Jun smiled and turned to glance at the lake, then asked, “Aren’t you gonna ask Viney about your current condition?”
nBeing reminded by her, Lin Qiao decided to ask about it.
n“Viney?” She put her clothes on and turned to shout at the lake. Then, she abruptly touched her stomach.
n‘Eh? It became harder!’
nViney reached a vine out of the water to the lakeside, then coiled around Lin Qiao’s hand.
n‘Mama…’
n“Viney,” Lin Qiao asked her, “Why is it so hard for my hair to grow? Lili’s hair have grown so long, but mine only grew a tiny bit.”
nViney responded with, ‘Mama, I focused the energy on your tummy, so the recovery of your hair and throat might be slower… But Mama, your hair are alive now, not as dead as before. Mama, you don’t need me to cure your hair anymore, because they’ll grow out by themselves, a little slowly though.’
nLin Qiao looked at the vine with surprise, saying, “Eh? Can my hair grow by themselves now? Like a healthy human being?”
nLiu Jun, who stood beside Lin Qiao, looked at her in shock. Judging by Lin Qiao’s words, her hair were now able to grow like those of healthy human beings. They were no longer dead like the hair of zombies.
n‘Yes, yes, that’s true… Mama, I’m a little tired, ‘ said Viney.
nSeeing that Viney’s vine wasn’t twisting as energetically as before, Lin Qiao said, “Alright, go get some rest. Thank you, Viney!”
n‘Mama, you thanked me again… ‘ said Viney unhappily. ‘You’re making me feel like an outsider… ‘
nSensing Viney’s discontentment, Lin Qiao hurriedly touched the vine on her wrist and said, “Sorry, my mistake! My dear Viney is so adorable, how can she be an outsider? We’re a family!”
nHearing that, Viney was cheered up, ‘Yeah, yeah, Viney is the most adorable one… Mama, I’m going down to sleep. Call me if you need anything…’
nWhile speaking, she unwrapped Lin Qiao’s wrist and drew back into the lake.
nLiu Jun looked at Lin Qiao and asked curiously, “Is Viney unhappy? What’s exactly is the relationship between you two? You only thanked her, and that made her unhappy?”
nLin Qiao shook her head and said, “I’m not sure what’s her relationship with me. But, when she showed up for the first time, she called me… eh… Mama.”
nLiu Jun popped her eyes and stared at Lin Qiao with disbelief, saying, “What? She called you Mama? She’s not your child, is she?”
nLin Qiao looked at her with a strange expression and asked, “Do you mean my child or Lu Tianyu’s? Have I been pregnant before? I don’t remember that.”
nLiu Jun lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said, “Before our base was destroyed, I had never heard that our Chief was pregnant. Even if you were pregnant, you wouldn’t let everyone know so soon, right? And, no one saw you with pregnant belly before.”
nWhile speaking, she glanced at Lin Qiao’s stomach.
nLin Qiao shook her head and said, “But, this isn’t my old body. Even if I were pregnant, the baby might have gone already. It can’t be that… the baby’s soul reincarnated along with mine… can it?”
nAfter saying that, she suddenly paused, then silently looked at Liu Jun.
n“It… might be… possible,” Liu Jun looked back at her.
nBoth of them stayed silent for seven or eight seconds.
nAfter that, Lin Qiao covered her forehead with a hand and said with disbelief, “Wait a minute, leave me in peace! That can’t be possible!”
nLiu Jun widely opened her eyes and responded, “Why not? Didn’t you reincarnate? Why can’t the baby reincarnate as well?”
nThen, Lin Qiao suddenly thought of another question. She put down her hand and said, “Wait, wait, you said that I was pregnant… Then, who was that man?”
nLiu Jun looked at her and remained silent for three seconds, then said, “I can only tell you that before he betrayed the entire base, he was with you the whole time…”
nLin Qiao gazed at her and said with a serious look, “Are you talking about… Yang Jianhua?”
nBoth of them fell into silence again.
nBut suddenly, Lin Qiao’s face turned dark. “Are you saying that I was in a relationship with Yang Jianhua, and I was pregnant with his baby. However, before he found out about the baby, that scum betrayed me, and the baby, and the base? Am I right?” She said with an icy-cold voice.
nLiu Jun sensed that the air pressure around Lin Qiao getting lower and lower. With a frown, she said, “Calm down, calm down! That’s merely my guess. Before you restore your memories, all these can only be guesses. Perhaps, the baby isn’t brought here by you… And maybe, Yang Jianhua isn’t the father, but someone else is…”
nLin Qiao took a deep breath to calm herself down. She pondered over Liu Jun’s words, and found that they were reasonable indeed. She suddenly recalled the purple-red color that she saw near the bottom of the lake, and started wondering if that was… the outside of her womb.
n‘No way! Viney isn’t my baby, is she?’
n“Just, just leave me alone!” Lin Qiao said with a dull face, then flashed out of the space. After coming out, she stood on the roof of the club and lowered her head while touching her stomach.
nFor some reason, she became very sensitive about the whole pregnancy guess after hearing Liu Jun’s words. She even started looking forward to something in a strange way.
nWas she really in a relationship with Yang Jianhua? If that were true, she must have been blind before, as she actually fell with a man like that! So blind!
nThinking about the Yang Jianhua that she had met recently, and that she had probably slept with him before, she felt sick.
nShe pressed a hand on her lower belly, wondering how the baby had been existing in her space if its soul had truly reincarnated along with hers.
nViney said that she would be able to come out after reaching level-five. But, in what way?
nLin Qiao wouldn’t need to give birth to Viney, would she?
nHer stomach was empty now. Even though her womb might still remain, it must be dead after she turned into a zombie. Was she still able to create a life?
nSomehow, another possibility popped up in Lin Qiao’s mind as she suddenly recalled that the previous owner of her body had had sex with Wu Chengyue.
n‘Eh… No way…!’
nIf it were Wu Chengyue’s spermatozoon, added with Lu Tianyu’s egg, then added with the soul of her baby…
nLin Qiao felt that if she were really going to give birth to a baby, she would have to do a DNA test after the baby was born.
nWhile she was thinking about this baby issue on the roof, the look on her face suddenly changed. Then, she walked to the edge of the roof and looked down.
nIt was late at night. She saw a few people sneakily walking around the vehicle that she had lent to Feng Ting Squad.
nShe frowned slightly, then put her hat on and turned herself visible before leaping off the roof.
