He spoke humbly.
Su Mo was moved, she couldn’t deny that he had hurt them before, but he also saved Rong Bai and her.
After so thought, she finally said, "Just one look."
Lu Chen wanted to refuse, but rembering what Rong Bai had said last night, he ultimately agreed. However, his icy gaze followed Lu Jin, ready to kill him without hesitation at the slightest wrong move.
As it turned out, Lu Jin truly only took one look at the child, which astounded Su Mo, since the baby had never smiled at her, yet when the baby’s eyes t Lu Jin’s, the child reached out and cooed twice.
Lu Jin squatted by the crib and slowly extended his finger, Su Mo quickly stepped forward to intercept, but the child took the initiative to grab that clean fingertip, looking as if it had found a toy.
It was as if she was conveying a ssage to them, she liked him.
Su Mo didn’t know what to say at the mont, she just silently walked over and put so distance between the two, watching Lu Jin warily, "That’s enough."
Lu Jin didn’t stay long, he took one last look at the child and then left.
Su Mo got Jiang Yulian to watch the baby, and went with Lu Chen to Momo Restaurant to stock up on ingredients and tea supply, then they headed to the farming area.
Not having been there for several months, the chicks had grown into a big flock, and the two cows, one male and one female, had robustly grown and even produced a calf.
The vegetables in the field were thriving, thanks to the greenhouse, and thus were less affected by the external environnt.
"It’s getting colder," Su Mo said, holding Lu Chen’s hand, feeling relaxed all over.
"By the way, what about the dicines you seized back? Did those researchers manage to create them?"
Lu Chen had actually forgotten to tell her, "They were fake, filled with virus that had been screened and refined."
Su Mo frowned, "What about the bunker? Didn’t you send engineers there? Has there been any news from there?"
"It’s being remodeled; we can move there next year."
Lu Chen, holding her hand, leisurely strolled down the road.
They now lacked neither food nor water sources, the only thing they had to face was the cold weather.
To be on the safe side, Lu Chen still took Su Mo to the clinic for a check-up, but today Li He wasn’t there.
When Su Mo asked, she found out that after leaving with Jianxiong yesterday, he hadn’t co back, and the gossiping doctor even said Jianxiong secretly asked for a bottle of lubricant...
She imdiately smirked; what they did was self-explanatory.
In the room filled with the scent of passion, Li He blushed, unable to get out of bed until the afternoon. The significant discrepancy in height and weight between the two was evident, not to ntion in other respects.
But Li He didn’t use his Healing Superpower to nd himself, annoyed at the thought of being coaxed into using it once yesterday, it was already dawn when they stopped.
Jianxiong’s robust body was pressed against his back, his unique masculine scent enveloping Li He tightly.
The mountain-like body gave Li He an unprecedented sense of security.
Jianxiong wasn’t very handso, but he had a resolute face and an upright character.
Li He sighed, wishing life could continue like this forever.
Days passed one after another, drawing ever closer to the Ice Age the experts spoke of.
Su Mo also keenly noticed sothing was amiss with the child.
She and Lu Chen both fell into a new round of lancholy.
It had been only two months since the birth, yet the child had grown to look almost six months old.
If this rate of growth continued, Lu Ruixue, who was still too young to stand steadily, would reach the age of 18 in just six years.
If her physical growth couldn’t be stabilized, the consequences would undoubtedly be terrible, her lifespan would be shorter than that of her parents, she would age prematurely and die.
This was just like in Su Mo’s womb, where a ten-month pregnancy culminated in just five months.
Whenever Su Mo thought about this issue, she felt extrely distressed, "Is it possible that this is an aftereffect of the virus?"
Lu Ruixue sat in her arms, both of them in a research lab within the refugee camp.
Everyone inside was a researcher she had rescued, shaking their heads. Dealing with this area of genetics and viruses was clearly not sothing pharmacologists could solve alone, and their equipnt was also neither perfect nor sufficient.
Su Mo pushed the baby out in the stroller, as the child’s rapid growth had already spread among her companions.
Everyone was in a somber mood, and even Zhao Changsheng said he would go out and bring back more researchers for her.
At six months old, Lu Ruixue usually liked to look around with her big eyes, and every ti Jianxiong teased her, she would bubble over with snotty giggles.
No one had the heart to see her grow and age faster than themselves with such an adorable manner.
After discovering the problem, Lu Chen was always running outside, hoping to find more people to solve the issue, but with the severe weather, he could hardly go too far.
Lu Jin stood at the entrance of a converted laboratory for a long ti, "Are you ready?"
"Almost, the equipnt Lord Lu brought back is still usable, the child might have hope."
Lu Jin nodded. One afternoon, he saw the child sleeping soundly in a baby chair at Momo Restaurant.
She was the spitting image of Su Mo, tiny, with wispy hair already growing on her head, her eyelashes long like palm-leaf fans, very cute.
He unconsciously stopped at the door to watch.
As Su Mo had just made rice paste, she saw Lu Jin looking tenderly at the child.
Startled for a mont, she put down the bowl, opened the door of the restaurant, "We are not open for business yet, co on in."
Only then did Lu Jin look up and walk into the room, sitting down at a table.
"She looks a lot like you," he said.
Su Mo poured him a glass of water, and for the first ti due to this child, the two of them sat face to face in a calm and peaceful manner.
She took the initiative to ask, "Is there sothing you need?"
"I have a laboratory that might be able to help."
Su Mo tightened her grip on the teacup, wary as she stared at him, "What do you an?"
Knowing she had misunderstood again, Lu Jin glanced at the child, "Her way of growing up is actually very similar to you. In countless failed embryonic works before you, all grew very fast; she inherited that peculiarity."
Lu Jin had stayed by Su Yao’s side, so it was natural for him to know so things.
"The laboratory that was destroyed underground, I scavenged for a lot of equipnt in Space and brought them along with a group of researchers."
Lu Jin’s aning was clear to Su Mo; she knew the rarity of various technological instrunts in that underground room, incomparable to anything they could currently find.
Su Mo couldn’t help but turn her gaze to the child, her face showing conflict.
