939 Living Together (1/2)

Wu Yueling said one word the night before the last, but she refused to say another word after that. Wu Chengyue tried very hard to coax her into talking last night, but failed.

Wu Chengyue was a little disappointed, but was also delighted. After all, Wu Yueling had started to talk again, meaning that there was a good chance for her to be willing to talk when she grew older. That was a good sign indeed.

In the kitchen, Wu Chengyue cast a casual glance at the living room and unwittingly curved his lips in a smile. The smile on his face was different from his standard smile. It was faint but sincere, not as fake as usual.

It was the first time the zombie lady stayed in his place. Before, he was always the one who stayed at hers and refused to leave. He had a subtle feeling of satisfaction as she was staying in his house like that.

However, thinking that the zombie lady wasn't staying at his place willingly, he started to feel slightly unhappy.

'Whatever! As long as she's here… We're kinda living together now, aren't we?'

Wu Chengyue got rid of the entangled thoughts in his head and started preparing breakfast.

Inside the living room, Lin Qiao let Wu Yueling sit by her side and put her little hands on her belly. The girl was talking to Viney.

Lin Qiao was reading a book; it was a biography. She found it from the bookshelf in the living room. She had nothing to do around there, so she decided to read a book while waiting for Xie Dong to come to her.

Xie Dong didn't show up, but Xiao Yunlong did.

Not long after Wu Chengyue and Wu Yueling had breakfast, Xiao Yunlong showed up together with Xiao Licheng. Before they came in, Lin Qiao put the book back onto the tea table, then gently moved Wu Yueling's hands away from her belly and thrust the rabbit into the little girl's arms.

Hearing the footstep sounds from Xiao Yunlong and Xiao Licheng, Wu Yueling quickly dropped the rabbit and slid off the couch, then ran behind the couch and hid away. Xiao Yunlong saw the little person flee to the back of the couch and hide there once he walked in.

”Didn't you tell me that Ling Ling is getting better?” He turned and asked Xiao Licheng.

”She's better when she sees me. I don't know about you,” Xiao Licheng shrugged and said.

Xiao Yunlong was a little speechless to hear that.

”You're here. Get upstairs,” Wu Chengyue came out of the kitchen and greeted them both, then turned and went headed toward the second floor. Xiao Yunlong looked at him with surprise, then glanced at Wu Yueling, who was hiding behind a corner of the couch. ”Aren't you taking Ling Ling with you? Are you gonna leave her alone in the living room?”

”It's alright. She'll be fine staying here,” Wu Chengyue smiled and said.

Xiao Yunlong and Xiao Licheng both hesitated for a moment. They looked at Wu Chengyue uncertainly, not seeming to agree with his decision. However, as the other had already gone upstairs and Wu Yueling was still hiding behind the couch, they thought for a moment and then glanced at each other before following him upstairs at last. It was Wu Chengyue's house anyway. Ling Ling should be fine in her own home. She was very familiar with the place after all.

After watching the two go upstairs, Lin Qiao leaned against the back of the couch and reached a hand backward to touch Wu Yueling and tell her that the guests had left, so that she could come out.

Wu Yueling slowly crawled out from behind the couch as no strange vibe could be detected from the living room anymore. Lin Qiao looked at her, without knowing what to say. Even the rabbit was braver than the little girl!
