At that moment, Lin Feng and Yuan Tianxing glanced at each other. “Why do I feel that Miss. Lu has been here for long?” Lin Feng asked.

Yuan Tianxing nodded and said, “When did she come back?”

Wu Chengyue was carrying Ling Ling to the living room. Hearing their conversation, he stopped, then turned back and asked, “Is her last name Lu?”

Lin Feng nodded and responded, “Yeah, her name is Lu…”

Abruptly and weirdly, Yuan Tianxing interrupted him and said, “Ah, that’s right! Her last name is Lu. That is correct!”

Lin Feng looked at him confusedly. He had known Yuan Tianxing for long, so he understood that there must be some reasons why the latter interrupted him.

Wu Chengyue gave Yuan Tianxing a suspicious glance and saw the latter wearing a smiling face, as if he said what he said unintentionally.

At that moment, Ling Ling slightly moved her eyelids, then slowly opened her eyes.

Wu Chengyue didn’t see that as he was looking at Yuan Tianxing. However, Meng Yue, who was beside him, noticed that.

“Look, Ling Ling is awake!”

The others immediately turned their eyes to the kid carried in Wu Chengyue’s arms.

As Meng Yue had said, Wu Chengyue had opened her eyes, and was confusedly looking around. As all the others looked at her, she immediately turned her head around and buried her face in Wu Chengyue’s arms.

“Ling Ling? Ling Ling! Here, look at Daddy. Tell Daddy, is there any discomfort?” Wu Chengyue looked at her and spoke with a delightful surprise. Meanwhile, he hurriedly put her on a couch.

Wu Yueling sneakily raised one sparkling eye to look at him, then hid her face back in his arms.

As his daughter seemed to be clear-minded and reacted normally, Wu Chengyue finally gave a long sigh of relief.

At that point, Wu Yueling suddenly began groping around her own body with her tiny hands, but failed to find anything. After that, she abruptly sat up from Wu Chengyue’s arms on his lap, then lowered her head to look at the clothes that she was wearing confusedly.

‘Eh? These aren’t my clothes… They are so large…’

But soon, she forgot about the clothes. She searched around her but didn’t find her treasure, so she began looking around Wu Chengyue.

She still didn’t see it.

As she failed to find her treasure in the living room, Wu Chengyue curved her lips downward, then raised her face to look at Wu Chengyue in the eyes tearfully.

“What is she looking for?” Lin Feng knew about children. After all, he had a daughter too.

“She should be looking for her grass dragonfly,” Wu Chengyue thought for a moment and said, then saw Wu Yueling nod heavily.

“Don’t worry, your treasure is in your room,” Wu Chengyue smiled and said, “Are you hungry? Shall we go upstairs to change clothes, then come back down to eat?”

Hearing that, Wu Yueling nodded quickly and happily, as she would be able to see her grass dragonfly back in her room.

Wu Chengyue affectionately put a hand on her hair. Stroking his daughter’s smooth hair, he felt that his heart was filled with something.

“I’ll take Ling Ling upstairs to change. Yunlong, please invite Mr. Lin and Mr. Yuan back to the dining table.”

Seeing Wu Chengyue stand up with Wu Yueling carried in his arms, Xiao Yunlong finally recovered from the shock and nodded.

“Mr. Lin, Mr. Yuan, please come back and have a seat. We haven’t finished our meal yet.” After saying this, Xiao Yunlong pointed a hand at the table.

As Wu Chengyue had been sent back to her father perfectly unharmed, Lin Feng and Yuan Tianxing were relieved as well. They smiled while walking toward the dining table after hearing Yuan Tianxing’s words.

“Ugh, why did Miss. Lu leave so soon?” Yuan Tianxing asked curiously.

“Are you sure that she has left?” Lin Feng glanced at him with a weird look.

At that moment, Xiao Yunlong joined the conversation, “Yeah, that Miss. Lu has really managed to wake Ling Ling up. Also, has the little Ling Ling truly triggered a superpower?”

“About that, you need to ask Ling Ling herself,” said Lin Feng, “Maybe, we can also ask Miss. Lu when we get back.”

“I think Chief Wu needs to strengthen the guards of his place! Is it appropriate to let her just come and go whenever she wants?” Yuan Tianxing said.

Hearing that, Meng Yue, who had silently followed them to the dining table, responded, “If even Chengyue and I can’t discover her, there would be no use of adding more guards.”

The three men paused slightly. Recalling how that lady showed up silently beside them without being noticed by anyone on the scene, they felt that Meng Yue was right.

“If someone had sent her to do intelligence works or assassinations, who would be able to stop her except for the super powerful ones?”

When the few people were guessing about the success rate of an assassinate mission carried by Lin Qiao, Wu Chengyue carried Ling Ling upstairs.

“Ling Ling, do you remember anything?” Wu Chengyue went up to the third floor and asked his daughter while heading toward her room. Wu Yueling sat in his arms, looking at him with confusion. Judging by the look on her face, Wu Chengyue figured that she didn’t remember anything.

He opened the door of Wu Yueling’s room and walked in, then put her on the bed. After that, he turned to find her clothes in the closet.

Wu Yueling turned and crawled to the nightstand once she was put on the bed. A yellow-green grass dragonfly was placed there.

She reached out her little hands to pick up the dragonfly, then grinned happily.

Upon returning with clean clothes, Wu Chengyue saw his daughter sitting on the bed while holding the grass dragonfly with both hands. Her cute little face was wearing a bright smile.

He hadn’t seen his daughter showing such a sweet grin for a long time. His heart was even melted by that grin. Holding the clothes, he couldn’t bear walking over to interrupt her.

…

On the other side, Lin Qiao entered her space. Before she walked to the furniture area where Liu Jun was staying, she suddenly felt that one of her feet was heavy, and that something was pulling her trouser leg.

“Eh?” She lowered her head to find a large sphere of gray fur curling on her foot, biting her trouser leg.

‘Ah, it’s the gray rabbit.’

As Lin Qiao lowered her head to look at it, the rabbit immediately relaxed its bite, then jumped off her foot and hopped around her feet.

“What are you doing?” Lin Qiao looked at the rabbit bewilderedly, as she didn’t know what it wanted. She was able to read the minds of some zombies and people, but couldn’t hear the thoughts of animals…

At that moment, a little person excitedly rushed at the rabbit.

Liu Jun found that it was Tong Tong. And then, she saw Liu Jun follow behind him.

The rabbit was probably startled by the running Tong Tong. It turned a little anxious, then suddenly bit Lin Qiao’s trouser leg again and tried to drag her to the side. This time, it was doing it many times harder than before.

“Does it want you to bring it out? It was with that little girl the whole time. Once you left, it began running about. I don’t know what he was doing.”
