Soon, the water in the lake center began waving, and a vine raised Lin Xiaolu’s flawless body from the lake; letting her float on the water surface while facing the sky, and bringing her toward Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao hurriedly found a towel and a dress from Qiu Lili’s closet. Meanwhile, Lin Feng took Lin Xiaolu over from the vine and carried her toward Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao waited by a couch; as Lin Feng carried Xiaolu over, she put her down on the couch, then began wiping her body with the towel.
Lin Feng was holding his naked daughter. He was surprised, as his daughter’s clothes were all done; but what he was worried more about was her body condition.
After checking, he found that Lin Xiaolu’s body temperature had dropped, and now was even a little lower than usual. Her breath was stable, and so was her heartbeat. He also lifted her eyelids and found that her pupils seemed to be normal.
Only after that did Lin Feng finally stop worrying.
Lin Qiao dried Lin Xiaolu’s body, then put the dress on her. Afterward, she began drying her long and wet hair.
Before, Lin Feng didn’t pay attention to Lin Qiao’s movement. But now, after calming down, he noticed how practiced she seemed to be in taking care of Lin Xiaolu. He was puzzled at first, then was inclined to believe a guess of his even deeper than before.
“When will Xiaolu wake up?” He asked.
Lin Qiao responded while wiping Xiaolu’s hair, “Em, I guess it’ll take one or two more hours. Touch her forehead…you should be able to sense her energy nucleus right now.”
She didn’t need to touch Lin Xiaolu’s forehead, as she had already sensed the little girl’s energy nucleus. Right now, she was curious about what kind of power Lin Xiaolu had.
Hearing her, Lin Feng immediately put a hand on his daughter’s forehead. Then, he gathered a slight amount of energy in his palm which was pressing against Lin Xiaolu’s forehead.
As she had said, he did sense a slight energy wave from Lin Xiaolu’s head.
“It’s real! Xiaolu does have a power now!” He murmured with surprise.
At that moment, Viney suddenly coiled a vine on Lin Qiao’s hand and sent her a message. Soon after that, it unwrapped her, and then all the vines drew back into the lake.
Lin Qiao paused for a second, but didn’t make other reaction. She looked at Lin Feng and said, “Alright, you carry her. I’ll send you outside. The others are worried sick.”
Lin Feng was immediately reminded of Mrs. Lin and the others, so he hurriedly lifted his daughter and stood up. After that, Lin Qiao put a hand on his shoulder and brought both of them out.
As the group of people were waiting anxiously, the two suddenly showed up in the room. The people were shocked at first, then realized what had happened.
“Lin Feng, how’s Xiaolu!” Cheng Wangxue immediately sprung up from the couch. She would have collapsed if she hadn’t been trying too hard to control herself.
Mrs. Lin, Lin Wenwen, and the others all hurriedly came over to touch Lin Xiaolu, all afraid that they might touch a cold body.
Lin Qiao stood aside and saw that Xie Dong standing by Liu Jun’s side. She nodded at the two of them, then turned to say to the others, “Alright, alright, Xiaolu is fine! Don’t worry, put her in bed and cover her with a blanket. She’ll wake up when her body temperature rises to the normal level.”
Mrs. Lin, Cheng Wangxue, and all the others had touched Lin Xiaolu’s body. Her body temperature was a little low, but thankfully, her body wasn’t icy-cold, and was still warm.
Finally, the group of people stopped worrying.
“Ah, I was worried sick! Thankfully, she’s fine!” Mrs. Lin said while patting her own chest.
“Is she really fine? There won’t be a problem, right? Her brain isn’t damaged, is it? And her body…her body is unharmed, right? Will any problem occur after she wakes up?” Cheng Wangxue was still worrying about her daughter, so she followed Lin Feng and kept asking questions.
“Is Xiaolu a superpowered one now? She’s the youngest superpowered human being. If we train her well, she’ll become powerful when she grows up, won’t she?” Lin Wenwen also followed behind Lin Feng and asked curiously.
Lin Feng put the girl on the bed. The others helped to lift the blanket, then covered Xiaolu with it.
“It’s alright, Xiaolu is healthy!” said Lin Qiao, “In fact, she’s healthier than any of you in this room. Let her rest for a while. She’ll wake up soon.”
At that moment, Lin Feng turned to say to Lin Qiao seriously, “Thank you! You saved our family once more! We’ve owed you too much.”
Lin Qiao had sensed his sincerity as she carelessly waved a hand at him.
“Xiaolu is so adorable, so how can I not help her? I’ll do whatever to help you as long as I can,” she said. Hearing their conversation, Mrs. Lin and the others all turned back to glance at Lin Qiao with gratitude.
Liu Jun carried Tong Tong over and asked Lin Qiao with curiosity, “Do you know what power Xiaolu has triggered?”
Lin Qiao shook her head and said, “I don’t know! She’ll have to figure that out by herself after waking up.”
Meanwhile, Liu Jun glanced at Lin Xiaolu, who was lying in bed, with curiosity.
“Mom, why is Sister Xiaolu asleep?” Tong Tong asked in her arms, “Isn’t she getting up to play?”
Liu Jun smiled at him and replied, “Sister Xiaolu is sick. She’s tired right now, so she needs to rest.”
Tong Tong nodded knowingly and responded, “Ah, I see!”
However, Lin Qiao had sensed the thoughts in his little head.
‘So, she’s sick…What does sick mean? She’s sick so she needs to rest? But why rest?’
Lin Qiao glanced at Tong Tong with a smile, then turned to look at the potful of soup. Then, she walked to the table and lifted the lid of the pot. Even though it had been covered, the soup was still a little cold by now.
She turned to say to Lin Wenwen, “Lin Wenwen, you and Long Qingying go heat this soup up. Later when Xiaolu wakes up, you can give her some of the soup. Besides, it’s dinner time now. Don’t miss your dinner.”
“Okay,” Lin Wenwen waited for her to finish speaking, then responded a little confusedly.
After saying that, Lin Qiao turned and left the room, Liu Jun and Xie Dong following behind her.
As the three of then left, Lin Wenwen suddenly caught a weird feeling. For some reason, when Lin Qiao said that to her just now, she felt that the one talking to her was her elder sister.
The familiar tone of talking, and familiar words…
Lin Wenwen tilted her head with confusion, then carried the pot out of the room with Long Qingying while thinking.
Back in the zombies’ room, Liu Jun asked Lin Qiao who had sat down on the couch, “Eh, didn’t you say that Viney doesn’t have enough energy? How did it manage to suppress Xiaolu’s energy without using its own?”
Lin Qiao shook her head and responded slowly, as if in deep thoughts, “It’s not like that. Viney has used up the last bit of energy…It’s sleeping now. Only after it has absorbed enough energy will it wake up again.”
The last message that Viney sent her was to tell her about that. It had spent five or six hours to order and filter Lin Xiaolu’s energy. How could that not consume any of Viney’s own energy? Viney had used up the last bit of its own energy to fix Xiaolu’s problem.
