Chapter 1211: They Woke Up

On hearing what Bao Xiaoguo said, the little zombie raised a hand to pull the lower eyelid of one eye, then stuck his tongue out and made a face toward Bao Xiaoguo. Then, he turned and ran away.

At that very moment, a boom was heard from the lab next door. The people on the scene gave a start and turned to where the explosion happened, then all ran toward the door of the lab next door.

They ran into the lab and found a glass container that contained the test subject exploded. The liquid in the container splashed everywhere, and glass pieces scattered all over the lab, even breaking some containers nearby. Thankfully, not all test subjects had exploded. But, the experiment table was obviously in a mess.

Only one test subject had exploded.

“What happened?”

“What’s going on?”

Bao Xiaoguo and Bao Xiaoying came in and looked at the messy lab in shock.

“Stay away!” Leng Xuantong raised an arm to stop them approaching the test subjects, then walked closer alone and searched through the messy scene with his eyes. Soon, he fixed his eyes on a corner and slowly moved toward that area, then squatted.

Watching his movement, Bao Xiaoguo and his sister figured that he might have discovered something. They both landed their eyes on that corner and carefully moved that way with curiosity.

Lying in that corner was a baby-palm sized, black, rotten piece of flesh.

“The color has changed… Let me see… Eh? Wasn’t this soaked in the juice mix of mutated catmint and the weird root?”

At the sight of the black flesh piece, Bao Xiaoying had something cross her mind. She thought for a moment, then raised her head and looked around. After that, she walked to the experiment table and checked the label.

As she thought, she found the label of the mixed juice of catmint and the roots. Earlier on, they soaked the flesh in the juice to see if anything would happen.

The table and the cabinet nearby were both filled with the body parts of underground creatures mixed with the body tissues that came from different kinds of plants or animals.

Leng Xuantong stood up and found a container and tweezers, then picked up the black meat piece and put it in. Then, he turned and walked out of the lab.

“Xiaoying, clean up! Replace the broken containers and renew the fluids,” he said while walking out.

“Okay!” Bao Xiaoying responded. Then, she turned around and tell the others to leave, “Alright, alright, you guys, get out! This place is full of glass pieces now. You might get hurt.”

Leng Xuantong brought the black meat piece back to the other lab, then started finding out what caused it to change and explode.

…

Three days later, Lin Qiao woke up. She let go of Wu Chengyue’s hand the moment she opened his eyes, then got up from the bed.

“Mama and Daddy woke up!” Outside the room, Teng immediately sensed the changes in his parents’ energies and told that to the others. Xiao Licheng, who was sitting on the couch reading some files, heard Teng’s words and hurriedly raised his head to look at the bedroom door.

Lin Qiao poured the ashes of the beast nucleus into the trash can, then dusted off her hands and walked out of the room.

At that moment, Wu Chengyue opened his eyes as well. He didn’t sit up immediately, but turned to look at Lin Qiao, seeing her open the door and walk out.

“How many days we lay in there for?” Lin Qiao came out and asked the man and the two kids in the living room while brushing her long hair with her fingers.

“Three days.”

“Three days.”

Xiao Licheng and Teng answered her question with one voice while Wu Yueling showed her three fingers.

Lin Qiao helplessly raised a hand and rubbed her temples with her thumb and forefinger, then walked to the bathroom sullenly. It was Wu Chengyue’s fault. Because of him, all her plans were postponed for three days, and she wasted three whole days.

She freshened up and changed her clothes, then came out of the bathroom and scooped up her son. She put the boy on her knees, then lowered her head and asked, “Who’s been feeding you two these days? Is it Uncle Xiao or Aunty Duan?”

“Aunty Duan.”

“Aunty…”

Teng and Wu Yueling both answered that question.

Hearing Lin Qiao ask about feeding the children, Xiao Licheng turned his head to the window with a complicated look on his face. However, Teng pointed a finger at him and complained, “Uncle Xiao’s food was awful!”

Wu Yueling covered her mouth and tittered secretly.

“What? I’m not good at cooking indeed, but my food wasn’t awful!” Xiao Licheng couldn’t stay calm. He immediately turned back and argued with Teng.

At that moment, Wu Chengyue came out of the bedroom and joined the conversation, “It is awful, compared with mine.” After saying that, he quietly walked into the bathroom.

Xiao Licheng didn’t know what to say. That man and Teng were really father and son. They even shared the same thought!

“Why are you guys so picky? My food is edible, and that’s enough. As long as you don’t starve to death, the taste of the food isn’t important! We live on dried food when we’re outside carrying missions. Who’d care about the taste?” Xiao Licheng was not happy to hear what Wu Chengyue and his son said.

Lin Qiao rubbed Teng’s head. The boy’s head now had some short hair grown out. He was only about a month old, so his hair were still very soft and fluffy. She rubbed the boy’s head, feeling like rubbing a cat.

“Who gave you showers and washed your clothes? Still Aunty Duan?” Lin Qiao asked Teng.

“She’s only responsible for food. I’m the one taking care of these two little problems.” Before Teng answered the question, Xiao Licheng said with a roll of his eyes.

Clap! Wu Yueling didn’t like him calling her ‘little problem’, so she slapped him on his thigh.

“Oh, I mean, little baby, okay?” Xiao Licheng changed his words immediately when he saw the little girl’s bulging cheeks. Then, he turned around and handed Lin Qiao an envelope, “The invitation for the grand meeting from Huaxia Base arrived this morning.”

In the envelope was an invitation.

Lin Qiao took it over and opened the envelope, leafing through the invitation before throwing it onto the tea table.

“The number of people has dropped this year. Last year, seven base leaders attended the meeting. This year, there are only five,” she pulled Teng’s sleeve and sighed.

“Hem, it might not be a bad thing,” Xiao Licheng glanced at her with a weird look. What he really wanted to say was—‘You are exactly the reason why there are fewer people now.’

“When will we go?” Wu Chengyue got changed and came out of the bathroom. He walked to the tea table and picked up the invitation, glancing at the date of the meeting.

The middle of December… It was about the same time as last year.
