Chapter 5 My Sweet Little Baby
Luo Qing opened her eyes groggily and saw that the sky was already turning slightly white.
Rubbing her eyes, Luo Qing glanced at the time and saw it was only a little past 5 o'clock. After yawning, she pulled the covers up and lay back down.
"I'm so sleepy, it's still early, I'll take a nap."
Just as she closed her eyes, that voice rang in her ears again, calling her "sister" in a sweet, childlike voice.
Luo Qing sat up abruptly and slapped herself across the face, yelling, "Holy crap, am I still dreaming?!"
"Ouch, that hurts (╥_╥), what's going on? Is it haunted?" Luo Qing shivered in bed.
The voice kept calling her, getting closer and closer.
"You, you, you, don't come any closer!" Luo Qing curled up into a ball. "According to the rules between humans and ghosts, ghosts cannot harm people hiding under the covers!"
Then, Luo Qing's blanket was patted. "Sister, what are you saying? Don't you remember me?"
"I don't know! I don't know ghosts!" Luo Qing felt like she was going crazy.
"I'm not a ghost, I'm the seed you planted, sister."
"A seed? Like that pink candy?" Luo Qing managed to calm down. She peeked out and saw the little girl in pink from her dream outside the covers. She was indeed cute, with chubby cheeks, round eyes, and long eyelashes. She was incredibly adorable.
"Yes, yes, that's me."
"How can you prove that what you're saying is true?" In her heart, Luo Qing already believed it. After all, that seed looked extraordinary, and it didn't seem strange that it would turn into a person.
With a flick of her little hand, a pink sapling appeared on Luo Qing's raft, exactly the same as the one in the space.
"No, that tree is still in the same place. Tell me, who are you?!" Luo Qing had already checked the space; the pink sapling was still inside.
"Sister, I am the Divine Tree, and I can create clones. This is my clone, and the one in your space is my original body. You can ask Uncle System if you don't believe me. I really didn't lie to you." The little girl looked aggrieved and on the verge of tears.
After learning about the little girl's background, Luo Qing was no longer afraid.
She crawled out of bed and hugged the little girl. "Don't cry, don't cry. I'm sorry I didn't recognize you. Because where I used to live, trees couldn't turn into people. Please forgive me, okay?"
"Okay, then I'll forgive my sister."
"Little sister is so good, what's her name?" Luo Qing became addicted to touching the little one's chubby face. Is this the joy of being a mother without pain?
"I don't have a name yet, can you give me one, sister?" The little boy's face was being rubbed by Luo Qing, and he spoke indistinctly.
"Of course, no problem!" Luo Qing smiled broadly, overjoyed. "Let me think of a name."
"How about we name her Fufu? Her full name will be Luo Fu, which takes my surname. What do you think, little sister? Do you like it?"
"I like it, thank you, sister." Luo Fu hugged Luo Qing and kissed her, and the adorable Luo Qing almost fainted the next second.
Too excited to sleep, Luo Qing simply took Luo Fu back to her space.
Inside the space, tender pink saplings are waving their branches to water other plants.
"Wow, Fufu, you're so capable!" Luo Qing hugged Fufu and kissed her.
"Oh, it's very simple. I just need to give an instruction, and the little tree will do the work by itself." Fufu blushed shyly.
Originally, Luo Qing would return to the space every now and then to water the plants, to prevent them from withering and dying in the space where time flowed faster.
Now that Fufu is helping, Luo Qing can focus on gathering supplies without having to go through so much trouble.
"When Fufu gets a little older, she can help her older sister collect supplies. Fufu has lots and lots of hands, she's really good at collecting supplies!"
"Fufu is so great! Thank you, Fufu, for thinking of your older sister so much. Fufu is such a thoughtful little darling." Luo Qing praised her without holding back.
Holding Fufu's little hand, Luo Qing checked the condition of the other two plants.
After growing for a day and a night in the space, they are now the size of those that are a month old outside the space.
That field, which was probably filled with wheat, has been completely filled in; the seedlings have grown to two feet tall and are lush and green.
The leaves in the other field looked a bit like the grape leaves Luo Qing had seen before; there were no small fruits yet, but the vines had already climbed high.
"I hope it really is grapes, so that when we have sugar in the future we can make wine, or we can make raisins to eat as snacks."
"These are grapes, sister! They're Kyoho grapes, super sweet!" Fufu shook Luo Qing's hand.
"Do you know Fufu?"
“Yes, I recognize all the common plants. They’re all in my inherited memories.” Fufu raised her little head, extremely proud.
"Wow, Fufu is so smart, awesome!" Luo Qing smiled and praised her without reservation. What a cutie, she looks so adorable.
She pointed to the field that looked like wheat and asked, "Does Fufu know what this is? Is it wheat?"
"Sister, that's barnyard grass, not wheat."
"Willow seeds? What are weeds? Can you eat them?" Luo Qing was full of questions; she had never heard of them before.
“Grain husks are edible and can be used as animal feed. They’re also medicine; they can stop bleeding,” Fufu explained.
"That's great, hahaha, I was just worried about medicine!" Luo Qing used to have a habit of preparing a first-aid kit, but now that she's in the game, she doesn't have any medicine and doesn't even dare to get sick. She can only try her best to take care of herself.
Luo Qing took Fufu back to the raft to have breakfast.
"The early bird catches the worm, so breakfast must be nutritious. Fufu, eat more!"
Fufu nodded obediently, already impatient. "I've never eaten anything before. I only know that eating delicious food makes people happy. I really want to try it!"
"Okay, I will definitely try my best to make sure that Fufu can eat delicious food every day."
"Fufu will help her sister." Luo Fu rubbed against Luo Qing's thigh. There was nothing she could do; she was still a little baby and could only touch that part of her thigh.
Luo Qing didn't take the braised fish and shrimp noodles she cooked yesterday; she wanted to eat something light for breakfast.
She took out a pot and stove, cooked a pot of fish roe and seafood noodles, added a lot of fish roe and shrimp, and it smelled incredibly delicious.
"Wow, it smells so good, sister!" Fufu leaned closer to the pot.
Luo Qing chuckled and picked up a little bit for her, "Fufu, try it and see how it tastes."
"It's absolutely delicious!" Fufu gave a thumbs up. "Sister, you're amazing!"
Luo Qing ladled out two bowls and put the rest into her backpack.
She handed a fork to Fufu, saying, "Be careful, it's hot. Eat more, Fufu. If you're still hungry, I'll give you more. There's plenty more."
The two ate breakfast while watching the beautiful sunrise.
"Sister, when are you going to form a bond with Fufu? Fufu wants to stay with you forever," Fufu suddenly asked, looking up.
"Ah, a contract? What contract?" Luo Qing asked, puzzled.
"It's about signing a contract. Does Sister not want to form a contract with Fufu?" Fufu's eyes were filled with tears, and she frowned in grievance.
"How could that be? I really want to, Fufu. Don't cry, let's form a bond now." Luo Qing hugged Fufu tightly, forgetting about her meal.
She had no plans to date, and although she called Fufu her sister, she treated her like her own daughter. Seeing her about to cry, she panicked terribly and even forgot to eat.
