Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Wenwen looked at Dong Xinxin and asked, “Will you ever be able to get married?”

Dong Xinxin rolled her eyes and said, “I’m ignoring him.”

Lin Wenwen laughed, “It might take you many years to wait for them to get to level-seven.”

Dong Xinxin shrugged and said, “It’s okay. My parents have all the patience anyway.”

Lin Wenwen didn’t think of Mr. and Mrs. Dong until Dong Xinxin mentioned them. “How are Uncle and Aunty Dong?” She had lived with them for three months after all. They were both nice.

Dong Xinxin nodded and said, “They’re good. But, neither of them triggered a superpower. I’ll take you to see them later. They’ll be happy to see you.”

“Sure!” Lin Wenwen nodded.

“Why didn’t you come to us earlier? Did you come back here just recently?” Luo Yuanjun pulled over a chair and sat down on the other side of the tea-table as he asked.

Lin Wenwen said, “I passed out half a month ago, then woke up to find myself wearing Xinxin’s skin. I came back here a few days ago. I spent three months in the past, but the time here only passed about twenty days.”

On hearing that, the others all wore a look of surprise.

“No wonder none of the girls that we found who’s gone missing for three months seemed to be you,” Dong Lijia looked at her and said.

“I don’t know what exactly had happened either,” Lin Wenwen smiled and said, “But fortunately, I managed to come back. I wonder if I’d ever have another chance like that.”

If she could travel through the time again under her own will, she might be able to figure out many ways to deal with the current problems.

The catmint she brought back was a great example. The catmint wasn’t able to solve the underground creature crisis completely, but at least it could protect her base efficiently. With the catmint, human beings would no longer be defenseless under the attacks from those underground creatures, especially the relatively weak people. For those people, the catmint could be a crucial, life-saving treasure. However, if those creatures dug tunnels and drilled into the base, things would become troublesome. She had brought back uninfected catmint seeds, but people didn’t dare to plant them in the soil.

People had to rely on weapons to fight those creatures.

…

While Lin Qiao was in Huaxia Base, waiting for Duan Juan’s people to bring her the second batch of catmint, Wu Chengyue sent Xiao Licheng back to his base to tell Xiao Yunlong to produce the new catmint bullets as soon as possible, then bring them back to him.

In the space, Lin Qiao was holding the second bowl of catmint drug while narrowing her eyes to observe the inside of Yuan Tianxing’s body. Through forty-eight hours of recovery, Yuan Tianxing’s condition had grown much better than before. The rich green energy inside his body was gone while twenty-five percent of the destructive, dark-purple energy had been neutralized.

Lu Tianyi was standing nearby, holding Teng in his arms. Wu Yueling was standing beside his legs. From Lu Tianyi’s arms, Teng reached his head toward Yuan Tianxing and said, “Mama, Uncle Yuan is doing good. You can tell him to marry Aunty when he wakes up, hehe…”

Lin Qiao, who was preparing to pour the drug into Yuan Tianxing’s mouth, paused, then turned to say to the boy, “Do you know what your Aunty wants?”

“Yeah! I know a lot of things,” Teng said.

Lin Qiao gave him another glance and said, “Don’t say it out loud. Wenwen brought him the drug to save his life, but that doesn’t mean he has to marry her for that. We are not ancient people. If he doesn’t like her with a true heart, the two of them wouldn’t be happy even if they forced themselves to be together.”

Having finished talking, she bent over and opened Yuan Tianxing’s mouth with one hand while pouring the drug in.

At that moment, Wu Chengyue came to Lin Qiao’s room. The room was empty, so he figured that she was in her space. He sat down on a chair in the living room, waiting for her to come out.

In the space, Lin Qiao gave the drug to Yuan Tianxing, then watched the two different types of energies devour each other in his body. At that point, Yuan Tianxing’s limbs had turned back to the normal color. His face was still purple though.

Holding the empty bowl, Lin Qiao left with the others and returned to her own house. Then, she sensed Wu Chengyue’s vibe from her room outside, so she flashed out of the space.

“Have the samples arrived already? So soon?” Lin Qiao asked Wu Chengyue a question at the sight of him.

“No,” Wu Chengyue raised his eyes to look at her and shook his head.

“What are you doing here then?” Lin Qiao looked at him questioningly.

“What do you mean?” Wu Chengyue turned down his mouth corners as he looked at her with a bitter face, “Am I allowed to see you at work only? Can’t I simply come here to visit you?”

“Didn’t you see me yesterday?” Lin Qiao looked at him with confusion, leaving him speechless He missed her, so he came to her room to see her. Was that wrong? If he said that to her frankly, she would complain again, wouldn’t she? Did she even like him or not?

Lin Qiao looked at his face. He seemed to have something to say, but was also having difficulty to say it. She folded her arms and circled around him, then said to him uncertainly, “You’re not gonna tell me that you came here to see me because you miss me, are you?”

“Is something wrong with that?” Wu Chengyue looked at her straight in the eyes and nodded. Since she had pointed that out, he didn’t intend to deny it.

“No…” This time, Lin Qiao didn’t know how to respond to him.

Wu Chengyue walked up to her and smilingly put his arms around her waist as he said to her, “I do miss you.”

Lin Qiao raised her eyes and looked at his handsome face. On hearing his words, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes and say, “Oi, we saw each other about ten hours ago. I remember that you weren’t so clingy before…”

Holding her slim waist and smelling her special, tempting aroma, Wu Chengyue said with a smile, “I wouldn’t be like this if you agreed to sleep with me at night. I’ve been poisoned by you. I feel panicked and unable to control myself after a short while not seeing you. What can I do?”

‘Damn… Let go of me, I want to rub the goosebumps off my skin!‘ Lin Qiao thought.

“This is someone else’s base. Can you please restrain yourself? Also, who taught you to talk like that?” Lin Qiao struggled out of his arms with her body hair bristling as she looked at him with a complicated expression and said. The man attempted to sneak into her bedroom and sleep with her in the past two nights, but she kicked him out every time. After all, they were in their enemy’s base. They needed to stay vigilant. Actually, they would still be able to stay alert even if they were sleeping on the same bed.

She simply did not want to act too close with Wu Chengyue in someone else’s territory.
