Chapter 1282: Zombie Instinct

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Qiao’s words put a grim look on Wu Chengyue’s face, and Teng looked very upset as well. “Yeah, that’s basically what it is… But, the nature of your body hasn’t fully woken up yet. It will wake up slowly… It needs time. It won’t be serious at first, so Mama, as long as you can control it, you won’t become a zombie like that. But… but…”

“But, it’s not a long term solution, right? No matter how I try to control it, it’ll only get back on me harder. At last, I might fail to stop it…” Lin Qiao knew what Teng was trying to say, so she said it in his stead.

Teng pouted and stayed silent. The look in his eyes told Lin Qiao that she was right.

“That’s only my intuition… I’m not very sure…” What he said was just a guess he had made. His intuition had always been accurate though. The idea that Lin Qiao might become a pure zombie who had no humanity or sanity made him so sad.

Wu Chengyue was also sullen-faced. But, he still remembered something Teng said before. “But Teng, didn’t you say that it can also be a good thing for Lin Qiao? Why? Did you mean that if she managed to defeat the nature of the body, the body will belong to her entirely?”

According to Teng, the nature of that body would be its zombie instinct. Something belonged to Lu Tianyu might still remain in that body too!

Teng nodded quickly and said, “Yes, as long as Mama defeated the nature of this body, the body will surely belong to Mama. I can feel that Mama is now facing both a crisis and an opportunity. It’s not completely a bad thing!”

On hearing that, both Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue sighed slightly in relief. They raised their heads and glanced at each other, then turned to the kids in their arms.

Wu Chengyue glanced at Wu Yueling, then looked at Lin Qiao. After that, he dropped his head and rubbed Teng’s head as he said to him determinedly, “Don’t worry. Daddy is here. Daddy won’t let anything happen to your Mama. I will find a way to kill the nature of her body.”

Lin Qiao gave a faint smile and said, “Didn’t you say that it’s also an opportunity? That means I, your Mama, still have a great chance of surviving. I won’t let myself die in this body, for your sake.”

Teng didn’t tell the others about what would happen to Lin Qiao’s soul if the nature of her body woke up. But still, except for Wu Yueling, who didn’t really understand what they were talking about, the others on the scene all understood that if Lin Qiao failed, she would not wake up from that body ever again.

Wu Yueling didn’t understand what ‘nature’, or ‘instinct’ meant. However, she could read the grim look on the faces of her Daddy and Teng. She had realized that something not good was probably happening to her new Mama.

She realized that, but didn’t know what to do. All she could do was to lie on Lin Qiao’s thighs and hold her as she prayed for her. ‘Mama, get better, get better!’

Wu Chengyue held Teng tight and said, “I believe in your Mama. She’s strong. She can defeat the zombie nature inside her body. Even if she gets suppressed temporarily, she wouldn’t just disappear so easily, right?”

Teng hesitated briefly, then nodded and said, “Yes. Mama is the best!”

Wu Chengyue rubbed his head and said, “Alright, go to sleep. From tomorrow, you won’t be seeing me for a while. Sleep together with Daddy and Mommy tonight, alright? We can all share this bed. This bed is big enough!”

Wu Chengyue glanced at Lin Qiao’s large bed, then stood up and carried Teng toward the bed with a smile.

“Sleep together! Sleep together!” Teng wasn’t the most excited one to hear Wu Chengyue’s words. Instead, it was Wu Yueling. She sprung up from Lin Qiao’s laps and repeated the two words with a big smile.

Looking at the adorable girl, Lin Qiao couldn’t help but rub her head and speak with laughter, “Alright, alright, we’ll sleep together.”

Wu Yueling immediately turned and ran to the bed. At the bedside, she quickly kicked off her shoes and climbed onto the bed. She never forgot about the idea of sleeping together with Mommy and Daddy. However, that wish of hers never came true before, because her Mama didn’t need to sleep at all.

“You’re really excited to sleep together with us,” Lin Qiao looked at her and smiled. After saying that, she stood up, then turned and walked toward the bathroom, “You kids get on the bed. I’ll take a shower first, then come to sleep with you two.”

Wu Chengyue immediately put on a grinning face and said to her, “Shall we shower together? We can save both time and water that way.”

Lin Qiao turned, gave him a glare and said, “Go away. Do I need to save water here?”

After watching Lin Qiao walk into the bathroom and close the door, Wu Chengyue put Teng on the bed with disappointment, then looked at the kids and said, “When do you think I can give you two a little brother or sister?”

Hearing that she might have a new little brother or sister, Wu Yueling immediately had her eyes glowing.

Teng looked at Wu Chengyue with a pair of big, watery eyes, which were full of scorn, while saying, “Not to mention if Mama can get pregnant again without my help, you guys aren’t even that close yet! Daddy, you need to work harder to make that possible…”

While speaking, he made a roll on the bed, then started rolling and crawling all over the bed.

Crawling on the bed felt so nice!

Watching Teng craw from one corner to another once he touched the bed, Wu Chengyue said to the boy helplessly while spreading the quilt, “Alright. Can you please stop? Are you a puppy? Stop crawling around and lie down, get to sleep!”

“If I’m a puppy, you’d be a dog daddy!” Teng didn’t stop. On the contrary, he argued with his father while crawling.

Wu Chengyue didn’t even know what to say. The boy was so tiny but how come he was so clever already! That was reasonable, though. After all, that was his son!

“Alright, I’m the dog daddy, okay? Can you please stop? Just get into the quilt. Learn from your sister. Look how nice your sister is,” Wu Chengyue watched the boy crawling all over the bed and pointed at Wu Yueling, who was already under the quilt. He had no choice but to agree with his son.

Teng decided not to cause himself trouble. He had already crawled a few nice rounds on the bed anyway. So, he stopped and looked at Wu Yueling, who was lying in the middle of the bed. “Eh?” he stopped short, then said, “No way! This is such a great chance. Are you gonna let us sleep between you two and ruin it? Daddy, are you stupid?”

Wu Chengyue honestly didn’t know what to say.
