Zombie Sister Strategy

Lin Qiao was exhausted when she finally sent Mengmeng to a higher level. As she woke up, she found herself and Mengmeng floating in the middle of the lake.

She looked at the latter and was surprised to find that the scales on her face were gone. She saw the flawless face of Mengmeng—not as delicate and beautiful as Qiu Lili’s, but looking young and pretty nevertheless.

Mengmeng had opened her eyes as well. Her green eyes glowed with a bright light, but soon, those eyes started to blink and show complicated looks.

Confusion, shock, anger, pain, sadness, hatred, helplessness… All sorts of emotions emerged in her mind and were expressed by her eyes.

Soon, Mengmeng’s face wore a pained look. Her pretty face was twisted as she suddenly covered her temples with both hands and couldn’t help but curl up her body.

“Roar!” She opened her mouth wide and let out a hoarse roar. Her sound caused a vibration that went into Lin Qiao’s ears from the water and gave her a fright.

Her voice became a sound wave and spread in the water. The energy in the water absorbed the most of it, but still, it traveled to a long distance away.

Lin Qiao looked at her silently, sensing the tearing pain from Mengmeng’ voice. She knew that Mengmeng’s memory had been restored. However, judging by how she reacted now, Lin Qiao felt that it would better for her to never remember those things.

Mengmeng curled her body as she radiated a strong sadness. Clearly, she had a story. Lin Qiao didn’t interrupt her, but swam to the lakeside alone. She decided to let Mengmeng stay in the lake alone for a while to calm down.

Lin Qiao went ashore with a stream of dark mist. As she put her clothes on, Qiu Lili and the others came to her with curiosity.

“Eh, where’s Mengmeng?” Qiu Lili asked Lin Qiao while turning to look at the lake surface.

Lin Qiao took over the towel that Liu Jun handed her and responded while drying her hair, “Ah, I think she has restored her memories. Apparently, that memory hit her badly. I think she’s in a bad mood. Just let her stay in the lake for a while. I guess she’ll come out later.”

Qiu Lili and the others all popped their eyes with surprise as they looked at Lin Qiao.

“Ah, she remembers things now? Will she become less crazy?” said Qiu Lili.

Lin Qiao shook her head and replied, “I don’t know. We can only find out after she comes out. How long had we been down there?” She suddenly thought of her appointment with the little one.

Qiu Lili took a glance at the exquisite watch on her slim wrist and said, “You have spent eighteen hours in the lake. It’s three o’clock in the afternoon now.”

Lin Qiao sighed in relief. ‘Thank God I came up on time.’

At that moment, Viney’s voice was suddenly heard from her head— ‘Mama, I sensed Ling Ling’s vibe… Is she with you?’

Lin Qiao glanced at her own belly with surprise, then raised her eyes to look at the lake while answering the question, ‘Can you sense that? She’s in our base with her Daddy.’

Viney immediately responded happily, ‘Mama, Mama, take me to see the little one! You only need to let her touch your belly!’

‘Wait until night. I’ll go and see her at night ,’ said Lin Qiao.

Viney didn’t understand, ‘Eh? Why do we have to wait until night? Can you do it now?’

Lin Qiao thought for a moment. She couldn’t tell Viney that she didn’t want to see Wu Chengyue, could she? ‘Because I’ve made an appointment with the little one, so I’ll be there when the time comes, ‘ she said.

‘Alright, we’ll wait until night then,’ said Viney , ‘I’ll go have some more sleep… Mama, wake me up at night.’

‘How am I supposed to wake you up? ‘ Lin Qiao asked.

‘Just put a hand on your belly and call my name, ‘ Viney taught her.

‘Alright, okay then !’ Lin Qiao nodded in her head.

At that moment, some noises were heard from the lake as Mengmeng swam to the lakeside. Her entire body was covered in thick, metallic scales, and her elbows and knees had grown out a few fish-bone-like thorns.

She walked out of the lake, covering her chest with her hands. Then, she stood in front of Lin Qiao and glanced at her and Qiu Lili, water dripping down from all over her body.

Suddenly, she spread her arms and lunged at Lin Qiao, holding her tight and bursting in tears.

“Whoaaa…”

Lin Qiao looked at Qiu Lili with confusion. ‘What the hell is happening?’

Qiu Lili was confused too. She looked at Mengmeng who suddenly hugged Lin Qiao, then made eye-contact with the other two.

“I thought she’d hug you,” Liu Jun said to Qiu Lili.

“Why is she mimicking me? I did the same thing when I met Qiaoqiao,” Qiu Lili said.

Shen Yujen was only watching, as she had no idea what was happening.

Lin Qiao raised both hands and said helplessly, “What’s going on here? Mengmeng, did you hug the wrong person? You should be hugging Lili, shouldn’t you?”

After all, she usually followed Qiu Lili everywhere, and Qiu Lili liked to follow Lin Qiao.

Mengmeng cried loudly for a while, then let go of Lin Qiao and prepared to wipe her tears. However, there were no tears on her face.

She awkwardly put down her arms and said, “My name is Yun Meng.”

Mengmeng’s voice was clear, not as silvery and sweet as Qiu Lili’s, but sounding a little deep like a boy’s voice. However, it wasn’t unpleasant, sounding special.

Lin Qiao looked at her with surprise, “You can talk too?”

Yun Meng nodded, then turned to glance around. She first picked up all her clothes and put them on, then walked to Qiu Lili. “Thank you for not expelling me.”

Qiu Lili didn’t know how to react as Mengmeng’s polite manner and tone of speaking made her feel very strange. She hurriedly waved her hands and responded, “Ah… You’re… you’re welcome! I mean… Qiaoqiao said that you have a good nature, so she let you stay with us.”

Yun Meng gave a smile. Her entire body was covered in scales which were shining with a metallic luster, yet her smile was even more eye-catching than her scales.

Her smile looked dashing, but still had the gentleness that girls were supposed to have.

Except for Shen Yujen who didn’t know Yun Meng well, the other three all felt that Mengmeng was now drastically different from before.

With ear-length short hair, she was a sharp-looking girl now.

“Since you remember what happened before, you should also remember what you promised us before you upgraded, right?” said Lin Qiao.

Yun Meng smilingly looked at Lin Qiao, then nodded and said, “I do. Don’t worry, I’ll guard this new base well and wait for you to come back.”

Only after hearing that did Lin Qiao sighed slightly in relief. Then, she turned and headed to the small building.

“Let’s get inside and talk.”
