Chapter 1033: Her Disguise Is Ripped Off

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

On hearing Wu Chengyue’s words, Lin Qiao paused briefly with surprise. She quickly adjusted her expression, but she was shocked on the inside. Wu Chengyue’s current attitude was completely unexpected for her.

Before she could say anything, Wu Chengyue looked at her deep in the eyes and continued, “Since the very beginning, I’ve been wondering why you care so much about Hades Base, and are so strangely nice to Lin Qiao Family people. I’ve done the background check. Lu Tianyu did not know anyone from Hades Base or Lin Family. You died and then became a zombie. After that, your character changed drastically, and so did your way of dealing with things and your habits. You became a totally different person.”

Lin Qiao blinked slightly and tried very hard to maintain a calm face. But, she was stirred on the inside. She thought for a moment and then felt relieved.

Wu Chengyue was running a base with over a million people. He, of course, was a capable man. Suddenly, she was curious about if he had figured out her real identity already. She looked at him and frowned slightly as she said with a deep voice, “So? What do you want to say?”

A mysterious look was detected from Wu Chengyue’s narrowed eyes as he stared at her straight in the eyes and said, “You are not Lu Tianyu, are you?”

Earlier on, after hearing what the zombie lady said about cooking, Wu Chengyue went into his study room with confusion. He did nothing there but sit behind his desk, thinking about how strange the zombie lady made him feel.

She said that she might blow up the kitchen. That might be a joke, but it sounded very much like something that might really happen. It sounded like she always blew up kitchens.

Wu Chengyue believed that he was right about the look on her face and her tone of speaking.

He thought of how much she had changed after becoming a zombie; she was like a completely different person. Her attitude toward Sea City Base was entirely different from before, and she was very protective of the Hades Base people.

He never figured out why. But today, what the zombie said about cooking enlightened him. He thought of how smoothly she had been handling her work as a base leader, and how smartly and quickly she built her new base, along with her great combat skills and superpower. The superpower might be explained, but it was impossible for her to learn to fight like a professional within such a short time.

He was puzzled all the time. He believed in science and not fantasy stories, such as being possessed by a ghost… He had never thought about that.

But today, he suddenly started thinking that way. If Lu Tianyu was no longer Lu Tianyu, everything could be explained.

If Lu Tianyu died before turning into a zombie, who was the zombie lady?

Who was able to lead a base? Who was used to being a Chief? Who could deal with the Chief’s work so easily? Who would care so much about Hades Base people and try so hard to protect them, and pay so much attention to Lin Feng, Lin Hao, Lin Wenwen, and the other Lin Family people?

Who else could she be but the woman who used to run Hades Base?

Wu Chengyue suddenly felt that he was so stupid that he couldn’t even figure out who the woman that he was in love with really was. He thought she was the evil Lu Tianyu while trying to explain why she was so different from before.

He told himself that it was reasonable for the zombie lady to not accept his love. He didn’t even know who was he loving. How could he ask her to accept himself?

Finally, he had figured it all out. He never felt as stupid as he felt now.

Lin Qiao looked at him. After a few seconds of silence, she said calmly with a smile, “Oh? If I’m not Lu Tianyu, is this face of mine fake?”

She was sitting while he was standing. However, she was not suppressed. Both of them had strong vibes.

Wu Chengyue was telling her with his eyes that he had figured out something already. However, she would not admit it to him like a silly person. Would anyone sane believe something like that?

He watched that face of hers heal bit by bit. He had seen her when her face was damaged. He had seen her body clearly before Lu Tianyu died. The others might think that she took plastic surgeries to make herself look like Lu Tianyu, but not Wu Chengyue.

With a small smile, Wu Chengyue looked at her and said, “No, your face isn’t fake, neither is your body. I am sure that not a single part of this body has changed, but your soul… It isn’t Lu Tianyu’s, is it?”

“Why don’t you say memory?” said Lin Qiao with surprise, “It’s doable to change someone’s memory now.”

Memories could be implanted through hypnosis. Not only could science do it, but also superpowers. Currently, it was not hard to change someone’s memory.

Wu Chengyue turned and walked to the only armchair in the room, then sat down as he answered Lin Qiao’s question, “You can change a man’s memory and make him follow his fake memories, but a man like that wouldn’t have a determined look in his eyes. Deep down, he’d question himself in a confusing, unexplainable way. You are not like that. You are determinedly doing the things that Lu Tianyu would never do. Also, you cannot change someone’s physical instincts by changing her memory. That only goes with the soul.”

Lin Qiao looked at him, feeling a little uncomfortable. He suddenly dug out her secret bit by bit and saw her real face.

He revealed her real identity without even warning her. She was wearing a perfect disguise, yet he abruptly ripped if off. Could they still cooperate? Should she keep trusting him? He had thrown her trust out of the base and fed it to zombies, hadn’t he?

She admitted defeat on the inside, but did not show that on her face. She gave a cold smile and said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m not curious about what you are thinking. It’s late. Please leave.”

Wu Chengyue spent a few seconds looking at her deep in the eyes, then silently stood up and walked to the door. Before leaving, he said to her with a meaningful smile, “It’s okay. I think I’ve already gotten the answer that I want.”

‘What did I say? How come you already got the answer you wanted? Wait, what is the answer that you wanted?’ Lin Qiao was so confused.

Wu Chengyue opened the door. While walking out of the room, he gave Duan Juan, who was standing by the door, a smiling glance, then turned and left. Duan Juan walked in and closed the door, then turned to look at Lin Qiao, “He glanced at me just now. Why do I feel like he has discovered something?”

“He suddenly became smart,” said Lin Qiao helplessly.

Duan Juan looked at her with confusion.

“He figured out who I really am,” Lin Qiao explained.

On hearing that, Duan Juan slightly widened her eyes and said, “Are you saying that…”

Lin Qiao nodded, not feeling like talking about it. With a tired face, she waved a hand and said, “Alright, what did you find?”
