Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies-Chapter 424: Simply Blind
"We understand, brother." Lei Wu smiled at Lei Qian while suppressing the ambitions that were surging in his heart. He pulled Old Madam Lei along with him. When Second Aunt Lei saw her son leave, she hesitated and then followed him without saying anything.
As for Second Uncle Lei, he had always been a coward who only listened to his wife and mother, so when the two of them were gone, naturally, he would not linger behind. He too turned on his feet and then followed his son.
Once the second branch was gone, Mother Lei couldn't help but spit on the floor. She was not a shrew but every time she ran into her mother-in-law, she wished she could act like one. That woman just had a way to drive someone crazy.
"What kind of woman is she?" Mother Lei complained to her husband. "Her husband survived such an ordeal, and instead of feeling happy about it, she is upset that she lost the chance of making our son the slave of her family."
Mother Lei was quite dissatisfied with the fact that her son brought these parasites with him. They were not worthy of being left alive; it would have been better if they had been left to die outside!
How could Lei Qian not see that his mother was upset? He smiled and said to her, "Mom, you know that grandfather still holds his second son and grandson in great reverence. Unless he gives up on them, we cannot let them die."
Hearing his response, Mother Lei snorted. She knew that her father-in-law was the kind of man who wouldn't give up until the very end. Even though he knew that Lei Wu and his father were nothing but scheming bastards, he was still unwilling to give up. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Maybe it had something to do with him being the chief of the army when he was still in his prime years.
"You should go and rest, mother," said Lei Qian, as he could see that his parents were really tired. They must have been quite worried about him and Lei Yan for the past few days.
He turned to look at Lu Yu and Lei Yan before saying to them, "You should go as well. You have been working quite hard these past few days."
"Alright." Lei Yan was quite quick to take on the offer, as she was indeed quite tired. She turned on her feet and walked away. Lu Yu watched her leave and turned to look at his boss. He said to him, "Will you be fine, Master Qian?"
"I will be fine." Lei Qian nodded as he took a seat beside Bai Meiyue.
Lu Yu nodded and turned to leave, but his attention was diverted by a certain doctor who was discussing something with Zhou Hongbei. He didn't know why, but the sight in front of him made him quite upset.
Zhou Hongbei shivered when he felt someone glare at him with a rather heated gaze. He paused and turned to look around. When he saw that it was none other than Lu Yu, he couldn't help but stiffen. What was this? What wrong thing did he commit for this man to glare at him like this?
"What's wrong?" Shen Zhen asked when she saw that Zhou Hongbei was not paying attention to her. What was more important than asking Bai Meiyue to help them make their treatment methods more advanced?
"That…" Zhou Hongbei pointed at Lu Yu, who was glaring at him, and Shen Zhen turned to look at the man, only to see that there was nothing wrong. She frowned and stated, "What? What are you asking me to see?"
When Zhou Hongbei turned and saw that Lu Yu had walked away without saying anything, he was speechless. What was that all about?
"What's going on with the safe base?" Lei Qian asked Bai Meiyue once the two of them were alone.
"You already saw what's going on."
Bai Meiyue raised her hand and pressed her temples. She had no intention of destroying the base that was being built for the time being. The establishment was a necessity in the current times, and it was rather important for human development.
It was just that Yu Miaomiao's ambition was too big, and she had no idea how to control the current resources that she had in her hands.
Thus, this base, which was growing at an exponential rate, would fall in the next three or four years; there was no reason for her to go out of her way to destroy it. Since it was going to fall into ruins anyway.
She was going to wait until she gave birth to Xiao Cai, and then she would flee to the south, where the bases were in a bit better situation. That's where most of the rich people established a new society as well. Back then, she helped the Bai family reach the south base, and they pushed her into a crowd of zombies to die.
They also took all of her supplies, which made it impossible for her to enter the base.
But now that she was alone, she was determined to go to the south base and take over the best mansion they had.
Of course, she was going to bring her family as well as the Lei family along with her. Now that Yu Miaomiao had seen the two of them together, Bai Meiyue didn't see the point of staying clear of Lei Qian's path.
Anyway, she was now forever linked to him.
Lei Qian, who was sitting next to her, didn't have so many thoughts in his mind. He was only worried about Bai Meiyue, who looked rather pale and questioned, "Do you want to eat something? You look rather sickly."
He didn't pay attention to Bai Meiyue's protruding belly as he was looking at her face.
When Bai Meiyue saw his actions, she was speechless. Sure enough, this man was simply too blind; she wondered whether he cared for her too much, or was he simply blind to the point where he couldn't see even the most blatant clues.
