Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies

Chapter 585: Fake Vs Real



Bai Xue snorted. Even though Su Hu closed the door in her face, she was not bothered by his actions at all. She had long heard that someone was deliberately making things difficult for Su Hu, and Bai Xue supported it one hundred and ten per cent. A man like Su Hu, who relied on others and still betrayed them, deserved such harassment.

She raised her foot and kicked the door of Su Hu's apartment before walking away. Once she arrived home, she was immediately pulled inside the house by Chu Xia. The woman raised her hand and smacked Bai Xue on the back with just the right amount of pressure and said to her angrily, "Just what do you think you are doing, huh? Do you think that I don't have enough troubles that you are messing around? Why did you go outside when the warning clearly stated that we needed to stay inside the apartment?"

Bai Xue rubbed the spot that her mother had hit and said in an angry voice, "I didn't want to go out either, but I heard some ruckus and wanted to check it out. It seems like that bitch Bai Meiyue left the base with Master Lei and the rest of her team."

Bai Xue truly hated the fact that Bai Meiyue had once escaped. She should have died under the waves of the mutated bugs that were targeting her, but Bai Meiyue was luckier than she had expected. Even with that pregnant belly, Bai Meiyue was able to stand against those mutated bugs, and here she thought that once Bai Meiyue was gone, she would be able to round up all the ability users who were following her.

She even started dreaming of how she would slowly win over Lei Qian's affections. Anyway, she and Bai Meiyue looked quite alike because they shared the same father. Bai Xue was certain that once Bai Meiyue cleared off the path, she would be able to replace her in no time. Compared to Bai Meiyue, she was much more docile and cute; men liked her kind of woman more than someone like Bai Meiyue, who was always cold and acted as if she were better than others.

However, imagination was beautiful and reality was harsh. Even though she planned on taking Bai Meiyue's place, that woman needed to first die. Only then would she be able to replace her. Without Bai Meiyue going to the underworld to accompany the King of Hell, how was she going to replace her?

While Bai Xue was lost in her thoughts, Chu Xia glanced at Bai Qingshi, and the two of them heaved a sigh of relief. With Bai Meiyue leaving the base, Mother Bai would never find out the truth about Bai Feng.

The two of them had no idea that they had relaxed way too soon!

On the other side, at one of the mansions where the Bai family was living with the rest of the team, Old Master Bai hummed a soft tune as he walked past the workers who were working their hardest. Even Director Feng was working with them. He could be seen carrying all kinds of heavy stuff around the mansion without complaining.

Of course, Old Master Bai didn't think that Bai Meiyue and the rest were making Director Feng work too hard. He knew that the world was no longer the same. If they didn't work hard, then they could forget about eating and drinking in peace. Only by working hard could they make a living.

As a soldier himself, Old Master Bai never thought about taking advantage of anyone. This was the only reason why he was doing whatever he could do at the moment.

He handed the mud-filled container to the young man who was waiting for him to fill it up.

"Old Master Bai!" One of the soldiers who escaped from the base waved his hand at Old Master Bai and then pointed to the breakfast station. He said to him, "Go and get your bowl of porridge. You cannot work on an empty stomach."

Old Master Bai nodded and patted his hands before walking to the breakfast station to grab his own bowl of porridge. Despite being old, he walked with a mighty gait which made others look at him with admiration.

As he arrived in front of the stall that was serving breakfast, Old Master Bai washed his hands in the vat that was sitting just next to the stall and then turned around to take the bowl of porridge.

"Thank you," he said as he took the large bowl that was filled with a generous amount of rice and eggs, along with a chicken leg.

"Mention not."

A sweet voice spoke to him, and he immediately raised his head. The second he raised his head, he was stunned. The woman who stood in front of him looked way too much like his wife, but at the same time, he knew that the woman was not his wife. Because his wife was not this young! His eyes blinked rapidly, and he stared at Yan Wanning without moving his gaze away.

He felt like he was dreaming, but at the same time, he knew that he was not dreaming.

Yan Wanning couldn't ignore the fervent gaze of Old Master Bai and raised her head. When she saw the old man looking at her dumbly, she frowned and asked, "Old Master Bai, is something the matter?"

She thought that Old Master Bai was looking at her because he wanted to say something to her.

Old Master Bai snapped out of his daze and shook his head. He stared at Yan Wanning, who was simply a carbon copy of his wife, and didn't know what to think of the current situation. If not for the fact that his wife and he were childhood sweethearts, he would have thought that his wife had cheated on him. But he knew that there was no way his wife would do such a thing!

She cared about him too much for her to cheat on him.
