Noticing the look of satisfaction on Kong Qingming’s face, Xiao Licheng somehow felt that he had asked a silly question.
“Judging by her attitude, you still have a long way to go… Look at our Chief and you’ll know. The girls from All Beings Base are hard to pursue,” Xiao Licheng said to him mercilessly.
Kong Qingming glanced at Wu Chengyue, who was squatting near the door of the kitchen and peeling potatoes. He felt pity for his Chief. “You don’t know what’ll happen. I might succeed sooner than Chief.”
“Sooner? How?” Wu Chengyue turned and gave Kong Qingming and Xiao Licheng a glance, then said, “I made a baby. Did you?”
Kong Qingming honestly didn’t know how to respond to that.
“Hehe… You’re right! But Chief, you guys have already had a baby together, but she’s still not your wife. Isn’t that a little too abnormal?” Xiao Licheng grinned and said.
Wu Chengyue was speechless.
The three guys were busy in the kitchen, so oo one in the living room paid attention to their conversation.
Upstairs, Lin Qiao guided the three into her room, then handed Leng Xuantong the second diary and the copy of the first diary that she got from Jiang Anan. “I recently got a diary about mutated plants. Read it and see if you can find anything useful from it.”
Hearing that, Leng Xuantong had his eyes glowing slightly. He took over the diary and started reading it. Meanwhile, Lin Qiao turned to Qiu Lili and said to her, “Have you dealt with the Huaxia Base people?”
Qiu Lili nodded as she sat down on the couch and crossed her legs, answering the question while fiddling with her hair, “Of course! I’d never let them run.”
“Secrets aren’t safe in Sea City Base. This base has too many people, and word always spreads out,” Lin Qiao said while scratching her chin. Then, she turned to Leng Xuantong and continued, “Have you found the stone?”
Leng Xuantong raised his head from the diary and nodded at her, then took out an egg-sized stone from his pocket and handed it to Lin Qiao. The latter sat on the chair and took the stone over. The stone looked ordinary and had an irregular shape. Its surface was smoother than that of normal stones.
She narrowed her eyes to look at the energy inside the stone. In the middle of the stone was a sphere of faintly purple energy.
“It does contain some energy right in the middle,” Lin Qiao said while putting the stone under her nose to sniff at it. She sensed a faint, weird smell from the stone. It was very light and hard to grasp. She was very sensitive to smell, but still needed to put the stone close to her nose to sense the smell. The others couldn’t sense it at all.
Lin Qiao spent a second sensing the smell and found the energy quite strange, a little similar to the energy in the bodies of the underground creatures, but not entirely similar. She quickly raised her head and looked at Leng Xuantong as she asked him, “How many did you bring back?”
“Wenwen has about two-hundred kilograms in her space,” said Leng Xuantong.
Lin Qiao raised the stone, her eyes glowing brightly. She smiled and said, “I think this stone isn’t only able to help the maniac superpower possessors, but is also effective on those underground creatures!”
Hearing that, both Qiu Lili and Lin Kui had their eyes glowing.
“Really? How do you know this stone can hurt those weird things?” Qiu Lili sat straight as she stared at Lin Qiao with her ruby-like eyes and asked.

Lin Qiao threw the stone into her hands and said, “Sense its smell. I’m not sure what the stone can do to those underground creatures, but I’m pretty sure that it’s effective on them. The energy contained in this stone is a little similar to the energy of those creatures. Perhaps, the stone is helpful for him and not harmful. I don’t know yet. Maybe the stone can hurt them. But at least, this is a breakthrough. We need to do some experiments to find out.”
On hearing her explanation, Qiu Lili dropped her head with disappointment and said, “Ah, you don’t know.” She took the stone over and put it under her nose to sniff at it, but sensed no smell. “I didn’t sense any smell,” she said with confusion.
Then, she threw the stone at Lin Kui and said, “Try with your cat nose.”
Cat nose? Lin Kui didn’t know what to say. Helplessly and unhappily, he glanced at her and then took over the stone, giving it a closer look. After that, he put it under his nose and said, “I smell water.”
It smelt like the stones near the freshwater lakes.
Leng Xuantong looked at Lin Qiao and asked, “Can you really sense the energy inside the stone?”
Lin Qiao gave him a glance and then said, “I can not only sense it, but also see it. Anyway, you need to start studying the energy in the stone once we get back home. I’ll capture a few underground creatures alive for you to do some experiments on.”
She was probably the only one who was able to capture those creatures alive.

Soon after lunch, Lu Tianyi and Lin Hao showed up in Wu Chengyue’s yard, together with Cheng Wangxue and Liu Jun.
“My brother said that he still has some work to do. He’ll be here in the afternoon,” Lin Hao walked into the living room and said to Wu Chengyue. The latter nodded smilingly and said, “It’s okay, as long as he can make it to the party.”
Lin Hao found his smile a little weird, so he stopped walking and stared at Wu Chengyue’s face with confusion.
“What’s wrong?” Wu Chengyue looked at him and asked, still with that smile.
Lin Hao shook his head, then moved to Lu Tianyi and whispered, “Have you found that your previous Chief is having a strange attitude toward me?”
“How?” Lu Tianyi gave him a glance confusedly.
Lin Hao found himself a chair to sit down, then folded his arms and dropped his head to think for a moment. After that, he raised his head and looked at Lu Tianyi as he said, “It’s like… like I’m his brother-in-law.”
After saying that, he paused with surprise, then turned to Wu Chengyue, who was near the door.
No way. Had he found out the truth already?
Lu Tianyi looked at him bewilderedly and said, “I’m his future brother-in-law, okay? Who are you?”
“Hmm,” Lin Hao gave him a glance. ‘Don’t you be perky. I’m his brother-in-law too!‘ Lin Hao thought. But, Lu Tianyi ignored him and moved toward the kitchen.
“What are you doing? Stay away from the kitchen unless you’re here to help!” Kong Qingming didn’t let him in.
“I think you guys don’t need help here. Bye!” Lu Tianyi clicked his tongue and pressed his lips together before going back to the living room. In the living room, he saw Lin Hao fighting Lin Wenwen over Teng.
“How can you hold him like that? Do you know how much pressure that posture might put on the baby’s soft body? You are a woman! How can you be so rude!” Lin Hao pointed at Lin Wenwen, who hid the baby behind her body to keep him away from Lin Hao.
“You are so annoying! I want to hold him! You’ve been holding him a lot more than me back in the base! How can you not let me hold him now?” Lin Wenwen didn’t want to pay any attention to him. However, she did change her way of holding Teng.
