Lin Qiao glanced at Wu Chengyue and felt that he was really worried about his daughter. So, she flashed into her space.
As Lin Qiao disappeared without warning, Wu Chengyue's face darkened immediately, turning back to glare at Lu Tianyi and the others abruptly.
Seeing this, the targets of his stare were instantly frightened, all carefully taking a step backward.
However, before Wu Chengyue could make any move, Lin Qiao showed up again, with the little one carried in her arms. The kid was still holding the grey rabbit.
The group of people sighed in relief on turning to find that Lin Qiao had shown up with Wu Yueling. Finally, they didn't need to suffer the pressure from their Chief.
At the moment, Wu Chengyue and Xiao Yunlong both popped their eyes. The former moved immediately, darting at Lin Qiao.
However, Lin Qiao reacted a little quicker than he did. Once he moved, she moved as well. They both flashed across the air and moved to new spots within a second.
Wu Chengyue stood where Lin Qiao was while the latter moved to the side with the little one.
"Stop! Give Ling Ling back to me!" Wu Chengyue growled frowningly. He was enraged, as he didn't think that Lin Qiao would run. As he finished speaking, he saw Lin Qiao shaking her head at him.
"You! What do you want!" Wu Chengyue narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Qiao with a dark face.
He realized that she was a female mostly because of her huge breasts. She was wearing a hat and a sunglasses, so he could only see her nose, lips, and chin.
Earlier, this woman stole his level-six zombie nucleus, and now, she kidnapped his daughter! What on earth did she want!
Seeing that Lin Qiao didn't intend to give Ling Ling back, Wu Chengyue was infuriated. His handsome face twisted with rage as he stared at her with a pair of icy-cold eyes. Meanwhile, a purple lightning sphere emerged in his hands.
Lin Qiao frowned as well, wondering why this man was so bad-tempered. He was a base leader, yet he couldn't even stay calm. Every time she saw him, he tried to start a fight. She wasn't even sure if he was really a leader.
Seeing Ling Ling, Xiao Yunlong hurriedly put Meng Yue down by the stairs, let her lean against the wall. After that, he flashed to the other side of Lin Qiao, seeming about to fight her together with Wu Chengyue.
Seeing that, Lu Tianyi and the others understood that something bad was about to happen.
"Wait a moment!" Lu Tianyi hurriedly stepped up and shouted, "Can we please talk? Chief, before we have figured out what's really going on, I don't think this is appropriate!"
"Yeah," Kong Qingming added, "This lady has indeed saved Ling Ling. If it weren't for her, Ling Ling would still be with that level-six zombie. Shouldn't we thank her?"
Hearing him, Xiao Yunlong hesitated. He glanced at Wu Chengyue, then opened his mouth and tried to say something. But at that time, Wu Chengyue responded coldly, "If she didn't steal my zombie nucleus, I'd thank her sincerely."
"Stealing from you is her fault," said Kong Qingming, "But she saved your daughter. So somehow, she has made it up to you. Just forgive her, shall we?"
Wu Chengyue wasn't trying to hold onto that zombie nucleus. However, he couldn't forgive Lin Qiao for stealing from him! If she didn't have Ling Ling, he would have sent a series of lightning bolts down to her.
But still, he wouldn't mix these two events. If she truly saved Ling Ling, he would thank her. However, she stole from him, and for that, she needed to pay.
"I'll accept any of her requirements if she gives Ling Ling to me now. But, she stole from me, and that's another thing," he said coldly.
"Chengyue, wait," said Xiao Yunlong, "I think he's right. You need to calm down now. Earlier on, Ling Ling…was really taken away by a weird level-six zombie. I don't know why that zombie didn't hurt Ling Ling, but thankfully, she was saved timely. About that, this lady here has helped us."
'Thank God! Thank God!' Xiao Yunlong kept saying to himself. He thought that he would spend the rest of his life with a sense of guilt because he had failed to protect his Goddaughter. But unexpectedly, Ling Ling was saved!
Anyhow, this mysterious woman had really helped them.
Wu Chengyue only gave him a cold glance, but stayed silent.
At that point, Lin Qiao sighed, then squatted and put Wu Yueling down. After that, she pointed at Wu Chengyue.
Wu Yueling understood that Lin Qiao wanted her to go to her Dad, but before leaving, she pulled her cloth. Lin Qiao thought that the kid was reluctant to part with her, but to her surprise, she sensed a thought when holding her little hand.
'Can I come back to play with Viney…'
'So, it's not because of me? It's because of Viney! It seems that the two of them are getting along well,' she thought.
"Ling Ling, come to Daddy!" The little girl's reaction made Wu Chengyue's heart twitch. For some reason, he suddenly felt that his daughter was about to be taken away from him forever. Hearing his voice, Wu Yueling dropped Lin Qiao's hand and turned to walk to Wu Chengyue while turning back from time to time.
Same as the last time, the rabbit jumped off from her arms and glanced at Wu Yueling, then hopped to Lin Qiao.
As the little rabbit left, the little one was immediately a little lost.
She stopped after making two steps toward her Dad. Wu Chengyue got a little anxious, and in the next second, he flashed to his daughter's side and scooped her up.
Meanwhile, an arm-thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking at Lin Qiao.
'Damn!'
Lin Qiao cursed in her head while nimbly made a backflip to dodge. At that moment, Wu Chengyue had already brought Ling Ling to Xiao Yunlong. All of the others, including Xiao Yunlong, were looking at Wu Chengyue with a stunned look.
'What? Why did you attack without warning? It's really…eh, unkind for you to attack the person who has helped you with thunderbolts!'
However, those people then realized that it was also unkind for Lin Qiao to steal his zombie nucleus.
As Wu Chengyue prepared to check Ling Ling up, he unexpectedly saw that his daughter was staring at him angrily with a pair of tearful eyes.
'…Why did you hit Zombie Sister! You hit Zombie Sister again!'
Wu Chengyue couldn't read his daughter's mind, but still, he understood that his daughter was upset because he attacked that strange woman.
'Why is she on her side now? How has she been brainwashing my daughter these few days!' He thought.
