Chapter 983: I’ll Give You A Nickname First

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

By the time Lin Qiao finally finished her work and got to the medical department, it was already about three o’clock in the afternoon.

When she arrived, only Wu Chengyue and his daughter were in the nursery. Viney was held in Wu Chengyue’s arms and talking to him. The man knew exactly how to hold the baby right. Wu Yueling offered her little brother her exclusive seat—her father’s knees. At that moment, the little girl was standing by her father’s side and looking at Viney.

As Lin Qiao showed up at the door in a military suit, wearing an army cap and giving out a cold and strong vibe, Wu Chengyue’s eyes glowed with a bright light.

She gave birth to a baby last night, yet she had already put her military suit back on. She stood there straight and strong like a sharp sword. The brim of her cap partially covered her eyes, but could not block the fierce glow in her eyes. Her long hair were tied up at the back of her head, making her look serious, dashing, and neat.

Lin Qiao walked into the nursery as she took off her cap and handed it to Shen Yujen, who was beside her, also restraining her vibe. She wasn’t surprised to see Wu Chengyue. She walked straight to him, with her eyes fixed on Viney.

“Let me hold him,” she bent over slightly while reaching out her arms and saying expressionlessly.

Wu Chengyue gave her a glance, then handed her the baby and said, “He wants you to give him a new name.”

Lin Qiao took over the baby, whose tender body was wrapped in a thick and soft towel. Hearing what Wu Chengyue said, she glanced at the man, then asked the baby, “Viney, what kind of name do you want?”

Viney really, really didn’t like the name ‘Viney’. However, he was too lazy to correct his mother. “Em, I have no other requirements, only that I want ‘Wu’ as my family name.”

On hearing that, Lin Qiao immediately cast her dagger eyes toward Wu Chengyue and slightly pressed her lips together, without saying a word. Receiving that glance, Wu Chengyue’s heart sank a little, and the smile on his face grew faint. “I didn’t say anything.”

He didn’t ask Viney to take his family name. To be honest, he wouldn’t feel unhappy even if Viney wanted to take ‘Lu’ as his family name at the moment. He would always have a chance to change his name anyway.

Viney raised his little hands as he grabbed Lin Qiao’s collar and said, “Mama, don’t be angry. Daddy didn’t ask that. That’s what I want. He is my Daddy after all. I should take his family name. Besides, Daddy is happy to let you name me…”

Speaking so many words all at one breath made Viney feel a little tired, so he paused and rested slightly. Only after hearing that did the look in Lin Qiao’s eyes turn softer. “I’m sorry,” she apologized to Wu Chengyue for her attitude.

Wu Chengyue nodded and wore a smile again. However, that smile was still smaller than what he had just now.

He could feel that the zombie lady was rather possessive of the child. She seemed to have put him outside her safe zone and wanted to hide the baby behind herself, without letting anyone else approach him. If he tried to approach, she would raise her thorns and cast him away.

Lin Qiao looked at Viney and said, “I’ll give you an official name later, but right now, I can give you a nickname first.”

Viney nodded, then slightly tilted his head toward Wu Chengyue. If he could open his eyes as the moment, he would have pity in his eyes.

That was his father after all. His Mama was again trying to keep him away. When on earth would the two of them be together? Did he need to wait for years to see them being together with love?

Thinking about that, Viney felt tired.

“It’s easy to give you a nickname. You were called Viney because you were a vine plant. Since you think Viney is a girl’s name, I’ll just call you little Teng-Teng. ‘Teng’ means ‘rising’, and can also mean ‘vine’ in Chinese,” Lin Qiao said to Viney smilingly.

Both Wu Chengyue and Teng-Teng felt a little speechless. Why didn’t she just name him ‘Teng’? Why Teng-Teng? That didn’t sound manly at all.

Lin Qiao ignored Viney’s reaction, but turned to Wu Yueling with a smile and asked the girl, “Ling Ling, what do you think? Your little-brother will be called Teng-Teng.”

Wu Yueling turned and glanced Wu Chengyue and Viney with confusion. She didn’t understand why Teng-Teng wanted to change his name. Whatever his name was, he would always be her little brother.

She happily nodded. She didn’t really care what the baby’s name meant, or whether it sounded good or not.

At that time, Viney finally let out his voice to better his nickname. “Mama, just call me Teng! I don’t want to be ‘little Teng-Teng!”

“Hah!” Feeling how the baby felt, Lin Qiao couldn’t help but laugh. “Eh-hem, alright, we’ll call you Teng!”

So, Viney had his name changed into Teng.

Standing by Lin Qiao’s side, Shen Yujen smilingly looked at the baby in her arms. She envied her for having the baby, and was upset about the fact that she couldn’t have a baby of her own. She had a chance to have a baby together with Chen Yuting, but now, she didn’t even dare to kiss him.

If only she could have a baby like Chief did! However, she was aware that Chief was different from her. Looking at Teng, she was so jealous of Chief, and also had a gleam of hope rising from her heart.

Perhaps, Chief could help her have her own baby one day.

She knew it might be very hard, but that idea rooted in her mind like a seed that she thought was dead, but turned out to have survived. Her eyes were a little unfocused as Lin Qiao cast her a casual glance.

She heard Shen Yujen’s thoughts and felt her longing; she also knew how deeply she loved Chen Yuting, and how guilty she felt for everything that she believed she owed to him. After she became a zombie, he never abandoned her.

Lin Qiao turned her eyes away from Shen Yujen, then said to Teng, “Was the milk that I gave you this morning good?”

Teng clicked his tongue and then said with his baby voice, “It was good, a little fishy though.”

“That was fresh goat milk. It could taste a little strange. But, I’ve mixed it with lake water. Did it still have that fishy flavor? Why didn’t I sense it when I tried it?”

She mixed the fresh goat milk with the lake water once she milked it. She tried it but didn’t detect any fishy smell from it. Perhaps, the baby was more sensitive to tastes and smells than her.

“Just a little bit,” said Teng.

Hearing their conversation, Wu Chengyue lost the smile on his face. He furrowed his brows and asked with confusion, “Goat milk? I don’t think you have goats in your base. Where did you get the fresh goat milk from?”

All Beings Base didn’t have an animal farm yet. Not to mention goats, cows, and pigs, there weren’t even hens, ducks, or geese in the base.

Hearing Lin Qiao mention the goat milk that came from an unknown source, he was a little worried. He knew that she wouldn’t give the baby anything harmful, but he still wanted to know about the source of the milk.

Lin Qiao gave him a glance and instantly figured out what he was thinking. “Don’t worry! Teng has his own system to differentiate edible food from inedible things. He won’t eat anything that’s harmful to him.”

Teng nodded as he agreed with his Mama in a mature tone of speaking, “Umm, yes. Daddy, don’t worry about me!”
