"Wasn't he here to help Yang Chao? Why didn't he help?" asked Yuan Tianxing.

Xing Le shook his head and said, "I'm not sure. I heard that he ran away when Chief Wu and the others were attacking Yang Chao."

Lin Wenwen showed a weird expression, as she didn't know if she should laugh or not, "Was Yang Chao pissed off?"

"I would be if I were him," said Xing Le.

Yuan Tianxing shook his head and said, "That's understandable. Isn't Yang Chao's ally a post-apocalyptic robber? Robbers can never be trusted. That robber definitely wouldn't risk his own life for Yang Chao."

"Maybe Yang Chao didn't pay him enough for him to risk his life," said Lin Wenwen.

Yuan Tianxing looked at her and nodded, "You're right."

"Chief Wu is going to get busy next. What just happened in this base will greatly affect the people here. Also, the winter is coming," Du Yuanxing, who stood beside Yuan Tianxing, crossed his arms before his chest and said.

"I found that ever since we met Miss. Lu, our situation has been turning for the better. We've already collected tons of supplies, so we don't need to worry about getting through the coming winter," said Lin Wenwen.

Hearing her, the others all realized that the preparation of the new base's construction was going smoothly as well, and Miss. Lu had indeed found them great amounts of supplies.



In the space, Lin Qiao successfully taught Viney how to walk, then sat on the couch and watched the two little things play with each other. She spent a moment sensing the outside world and heard the message that Xing Le brought back.

"I need to get out for a while. You two stay here and play. Viney, don't fall on the little one. If she gets hurt, I'll spank you when I get back!" She said to Viney, then turned and disappeared.

Lin Qiao trusted Viney, and believed that even if she fell, she wouldn't fall on Wu Yueling.

Viney was tossing the cluster of vines on her head from side to side. As Lin Qiao left, she held Wu Yueling's hands and inched her way to a couch. Then, she held the couch and moved around it, as slow as a turtle.

Wu Yueling quietly followed behind her, circling around the couch.

Viney held Wu Yueling's hand with a vine, then said, 'Why isn't your Daddy here yet? We've been waiting forever…'

Wu Yueling looked at Viney confusedly while responding in her mind, 'I don't know when Daddy will show up. Daddy said he'll come soon…'

Viney sighed, sounding like an adult, 'I was going to find my Mama a random man. The one outside named Yuan Tianxing is not bad… But, since you said that you like my Mama, I have no choice but to save her for your Daddy… But, your Daddy is so low…"

Wu Yueling looked at her without fully understanding her meaning. 'If your Mama left with another man… she can't be my Mama, can she?' she asked.

Viney answered her question, 'Of course not! If that happens, Mama will have a little baby with that man… And, that will be me! Haha… Don't tell your Daddy and my Mama about this… This is our secret… We can't let them know…'

Wu Yueling looked at her bewilderedly, saying, 'Eh? Why will you become a little baby? Will my Daddy have a baby with your Mama after he came in?'

Viney blinked and gave a smile. Her eyes curved like a pair of crescents as she snickered and said to Wu Yueling, 'Hehe, that's right! If your Daddy comes in, I'll make him have a baby together with my Mama… And then, I'll become that little baby… I'll be calling you sister… In the future, I'll be your little sister…'

Wu Yueling didn't understand every word that Viney said, but hearing Viney say that she would become her little sister, the little girl suddenly had her eyes glowed and looked at Viney with surprise.

'Really? Really?' she asked.

Viney, who was walking before her, turned her whole body around. She wanted to only turn her head but couldn't, because she didn't have a neck.

She tossed her vine hair to the other side, then said to Wu Yueling, 'It's real, it's real!'

Hearing that, Wu Yueling was immediately thrilled. She abruptly spread her arms to hug Viney. Thankfully, Viney was able to stand quite steadily even though she still shambled when walking. Otherwise, she would have been pressed to the ground by Wu Yueling.

'Ah, are you so happy about that?' said Viney to Wu Yueling.

Wu Yueling's adorable little face was already wearing a big smile. Her black, glowing eyes had also curved like a pair of crescents when she nodded quickly at Viney.

'If you didn't come here today, I might have let someone else be my Daddy. If that happened, I wouldn't be your little sister,' Viney suddenly thought about that.

Once she said that, the smile on Wu Yueling's face froze. The little girl gazed at Viney as if she was picturing Viney as some other people's little sister.

With that thought, she became unhappy.

She looked at Viney, her cherry-like little lips instantly curved downward and her crescent-like eyes suddenly turning red and misty. Seeing that look on her face, Viney knew that something not good was happening. 'Ahyaya, this is bad!'

As Wu Yueling was about to cry, the little vine plant panicked. She hurriedly began shaking the vines on her head and swinging like a roly-poly toy to cheer Wu Yueling up.

'Alright, alright, don't cry, don't cry… If Mama came in and saw you cry, she'll spank me on the butt… Although, even I don't know where my butt is…'

Viney was confused for a moment when mentioning butt, but soon forgot about that, because she had a little girl to be cheered.

'Good little one… You see, you see, you're already here, right? So, I won't become some other man's little baby… Don't worry, don't worry…'

However, Wu Yueling's lips curved even further down. She even raised a little hand to wipe her streaming tears. She cried pretty sadly, but didn't make any sounds.

Silent cry…

Viney didn't know what to do. 'Oh my, oh my, don't cry, please don't cry… What should I do… Mama, help!'

Lin Qiao had gone out and had a short conversation with Yuan Tianxing and the others. However, Viney summoned her before long.

Lin Qiao was a little confused, as she didn't know what had happened. She flashed into the space and saw that Wu Yueling was crying while Viney was rolling on the ground before her.

"What are you doing? I've been out for less than three minutes… Why's the little one crying?"

Viney immediately stood up from the ground, then reached a vine to Lin Qiao's hand. Then, she coiled the vine around Lin Qiao's arm and dragged herself toward Lin Qiao, hanging on her arm.

'Mama, Mama, the little one suddenly cried… Viney doesn't know why she cried… Maybe she's missing her Daddy…' While speaking, she turned and winked at Wu Yueling.

Wu Yueling was crying, but still, she remembered what Viney said to her earlier, about keeping the secret of the little baby from Zombie Sister.

She sobbed while looking at Lin Qiao with a pair of red eyes and nodding. She wanted to tell Lin Qiao that she did miss her Daddy, which was indeed true…
