Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies

Chapter 537: An Offer



Given how rare medicines were in the current times, Bai Meiyue didn't want to share them with Yu Miaomiao. Who knows where they might keep the stock? Surely not together with the meat and vegetables.

"I will go with you," Bai Meiyue said to Lei Qian, who was already heading out of the building.

Upon hearing her remark, Lei Qian paused and turned to look at the woman behind him. He furrowed his brows and then said to Bai Meiyue, "What do you mean that you will go with me? Didn't you hear what the doctor said to you?"

Bai Meiyue rolled her eyes. She said to Lei Qian, "Doctor Shen did say that I was weak, but she never said that I needed to stay in bed all the time. I can still go with you and find ways to hide the supplies from Yu Miaomiao, or are you going to hand everything to her just like the last time?"

"They dare!" Lei Qian snapped. Feeling furious, he was about to look for Yu Miaomiao to straighten up her act. It was fine if she wanted to snatch the food supplies from them, but she was absolutely not allowed to touch the supplements that he would bring back for his wife.

"What do you mean by 'they dare? Why are you throwing your temper around like that?" Bai Meiyue slapped the man on the back. She said to him, "How many times do I have to tell you to rein in that temper of yours? Do you think that you can go against the entire base? Don't forget that even if you are not weak, Yu Miaomiao has a bunch of ability users who are willing to do her bidding. It would be troublesome if you go against her now, and don't forget you have a son now."

"Then what will you do?" Lei Qian asked as he raised his brows. He rubbed the spot which Bai Meiyue had smacked and said to her, "You don't have any skills to hide the supplies as well, so might as well forget it."

"Forget it? Forget it? How dare you say such a thing to me, Lei Qian! Who is the one pregnant here? You or me? Why can't I go just because you said so?"

"Alright, alright. If you want to go so much, then we can go."

Lei Qian didn't want to argue with Bai Meiyue. He could sense that Bai Meiyue was getting bored after staying at home all the time, which was why she often wanted to venture here and there even though her pregnancy was advancing. As long as there was a chance to go outside, she would rush to take it.

Though Lei Qian understood her actions, he couldn't agree with them. What was the point of running around when her condition was like this?

What was more, he was only thinking of finding enough supplies to bring back for Bai Meiyue to get healthier. He didn't want to bring a big stock. The small stock would be easy for them to hide as long as they knew how to make a secret compartment in the car. And as a person who used to bring guns with him everywhere he went, Lei Qian had a car that could still be used to hide the medicines.

Thus, even though Lei Qian agreed to bring Bai Meiyue with him to the factory, he actually lied to her. Once Bai Meiyue went to take a nap, he, together with her brothers, snuck out of the penthouse and told Mother Bai to not wake her up.

So when Bai Meiyue woke up, she realised that she had been duped and the man who promised to bring her with him had long been gone. She was furious when she realised that the man had actually lied to her and even snuck out when she was sleeping. Bai Meiyue was only four and a half months pregnant, and she had already become baggage in the eyes of that man?

Even if he wanted to sneak out, why did he lie to her? Did he think that she was going to make trouble?

A whimper snapped her out of her thoughts, and Bai Meiyue raised her head to look at Ciyi, who was eyeing her carefully. She looked nervous, and only then did Bai Meiyue realise that she was actually releasing spiritual energy unconsciously. With a sigh, she raised her hand and rubbed the head of the little pup. She said to her, "I am sorry."

Since Lei Qian was already gone, there was no point in making trouble. She might as well stay at home and watch everything that was happening around.

According to her usual schedule, she went to look for the main chamber of water supply and filled it before going to look for Jiang Haidai. At that time, Jiang Haidai was cooking a pot of porridge for the patients in the medical wards.

When Bai Meiyue arrived, Bai Feng, along with his team members, came as well. He was there to pay the fees which they owed for the surgery and treatment of their team member. When Bai Feng saw Bai Meiyue standing next to Jiang Haidai and talking to her, he realised that his sister had grown more and more mature with the passing of time.

In the past, Bai Meiyue had always been naive and wilful with him. But now the little girl who was gloomy and silly was gone, and the one who replaced her was a rather shrewd one.

"Your sister is really good-looking, Boss," said Lu Jingguo. He wasn't a flirt, but Bai Meiyue deserved his praise. Even though the woman was pregnant, she was still cleaner and kempt than the other women who lived in the base. Just because the world had come to an end, everyone was acting as if it had given them a right to act like a savage!
