Hearing what he said, Lin Qiao nodded and responded, “This body always has a great self-healing capacity. Alright, I’m fine. I’ll just take some rest, and soon I’ll be able to walk.”

While speaking, she held Viney and looked at his wrinkled little face as she touched his chest. Then, she said to Lin Hao with a weird look on her face, “Lin Hao, look, this baby’s heart is beating.”

Lin Hao who was cleaning his tools hurriedly dropped what was in his hand and walked to her, then picked up the stethoscope and put it on Viney’s chest.

“How come?” He was confused, “Why couldn’t I detect his heartbeat when he was in your womb?”

Lin Qiao sniffed at Viney. She sensed a tight connection between herself and the baby, and the familiar Viney vibe. However, his scent was different from before.

“He is alive,” Lin Qiao looked at Viney and said with a complicated look.

She couldn’t have thought that she, as a zombie, would give birth to a living human being. She thought that Viney would either be a zombie or half-human and half-zombie.

Lin Hao didn’t say anything, but measured Viney’s heart rate and checked his mouth and nails.

“Look at his nails. His body temperature and his heart rate are both lower than healthy babies.” After checking, Lin Hao said with a serious look. He was not a human being, because his body wasn’t as vivacious as that of healthy human beings; he wasn’t a zombie either, because his heart was beating.

Followed Lin Hao’s words, Lin Qiao turned her eyes to Viney’s little hands and instantly detected a slight amount of zombie virus from the baby’s purple-blue nails. The virus existed in all ten of his nails.

If he scratched someone, that person would certainly be infected by the zombie virus.

She couldn’t sense the baby’s body temperature, because she herself was cold, and Viney was wrapped in a towel.

She thought for a moment. Actually, it would fine even if Viney was a zombie baby. He was a smart kid. Being a zombie wouldn’t be a problem for him.

Abruptly, she pinched the baby’s wrinkled little face and said to him, “Aren’t you gonna say anything yet? Are you going to swallow what’s in your mouth?”

Lin Hao bewilderedly gave her a glance. However, in the next second, he saw the baby turn his face and spit at the clearing nearby.

“Pah!”

Lin Hao was dumbfounded.

Lin Qiao ignored her stunned brother. She had gotten enough rest, so she quickly sat up and put her feet back on the ground. Her legs were still limp, yet she was already able to walk.

She put on her slippers and walked outside while talking to Viney, “My son, I have no milk. Would you like some milk? Do you want me to get you some milk from those goats in my space?”

Viney had his eyes closed. His eyelids were toned with a dark-blue color, and his lips were pale. Hearing Lin Qiao’s voice, he couldn’t help but press his little lips together, and then open his mouth.

“Mama, can I talk to you about one thing?” Viney’s voice was a typical baby’s voice, yet his tone of speaking sounded mature.

He thought he would be a girl. Back in Mama’s womb, he had no idea about his gender. Now, knowing that he was a boy, he started not to like Viney as his nickname.

That name sounded so girly!

Lin Qiao walked to the door with a smile. While opening the door, she replied, “What’s it about?”

She opened the door, but didn’t see those people out there who were frozen in shock. Instead, she lowered her head to look at Viney.

“I want to change my name!” Viney had a tender voice, but he sounded not so happy.

Lin Qiao heard people gasp, then raised her head and saw them.

‘Damn! I forgot there are people waiting out here!’

Those people popped their eyes and stared at Viney, who was in Lin Qiao’s arms. They looked so surprised as if they were looking at a ghost.

Did they mishear? That baby voice wasn’t coming out of that baby’s mouth, was it?

At that moment, Lin Hao, who was still in the delivery room, was as shocked as the others. Before the others could react, he made his voice sounded.

“What? You gave birth to a little monster! A monster kid? No… A monster baby?”

That was absolutely not normal! Which normal baby was able to talk right after it was born? Also, that baby seemed to have fought pretty hard for a way out just now! Also, he didn’t cry! And… he spat!

His voice brought the others back from the shock. They understood that Lin Hao didn’t mean bad, but no one would like their kids being called ‘monster’.

Wu Chengyue immediately pulled a long face.

“Shut your mouth! How can you say that? What baby monster? He is clearly a baby zombie!” Lin Qiao gave him a glare. However, what she said was not much better than Lin Hao’s words.

“Mama, are you trying to scare everybody? I am a human being, okay?” The soft and silvery baby voice was heard again. Viney couldn’t open his eyes yet, but he could detect the vibe of everyone on the scene by sniffing.

The people were speechless.

What Lin Qiao said didn’t scare them, but the baby talking did. Was the baby even aware that he was only a newborn baby?

Lin Hao had a strong mind, so he was less shocked than before at that moment. His sister had died and then come back to life in another body. What could be more miraculous than that?

At that moment, Lin Qiao looked at Viney and said, “Thankfully, you are not in your original shape. A baby with vines on his head would be so ugly.”

Viney didn’t want to say anything.

Except for Wu Chengyue and Viney himself, none of the others knew what his original shape was. Lin Qiao’s words aroused their curiosity, so they soon gathered around Viney and looked at him like they were looking at some kind of rare animal in the zoo.

The baby was wrapped in a towel and looked normal. He had a little face, a pair of eyes, a nose and a little mouth. Looking carefully, they felt that he would grow into a lovely kid.

Wu Yueling, who was carried in her father’s arms, was the most excited one. With her arms around Wu Chengyue’s neck, she leaned her head forward to look at the baby. The baby was so small. Was that her little sister?

She was close to Lin Qiao, so Lin Qiao heard her thoughts. “No, this is your little brother,” Lin Qiao raised her head and said to the girl, “Ling Ling, you are going to take good care of your little brother.”

“A boy?” The others were a little surprised. They didn’t change their expressions much though. Some of them were even disappointed.

Qiu Lili was disappointed the most obviously. “Ah, it’s a boy!”

“I thought you’d have a daughter. I was going to let Tongtong get engaged with her,” said Liu Jun regrettably.

Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue were both a little speechless on hearing that. Did she plan on that before Viney was even born? Did Viney agree to that?

“He’s so tiny! And he’s ugly!” Qiu Lili complained, but her eyes were still sparkling when she looked at Viney’s face.
