Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies - Chapter 681

Chapter 681: Not for Him

“No, I am not hurt.” Bai Meiyue was indeed quite confused by the reaction of Old Master Bai, but she was used to controlling her emotions; she calmly suppressed her emotions and then said in a low voice, “I just killed a few people; this blood belongs to them. I am fine.”

Only then did Old Master Bai calm down. But a second later, he was overstressed again. He looked at Bai Meiyue, whose belly was so big that she looked like she was about to give birth any second and couldn’t help but scold the little girl. “You, girl. You are really brave. Who do you think you are? An immortal? How can you get into a fight when you are pregnant? What if you had gotten hurt?”

Bai Meiyue was no longer two or three months pregnant. She was almost eight months pregnant. Her belly was getting bigger and bigger by the day, and she was actually going around fighting with people. Old Master Bai was anxious to death, and at the same time, he thought that his grandson, son and himself were really useless. Someone exchanged Yan Wanning, and they didn’t even find anything amiss. It was only when he ran into Yan Wanning that he realised that he had been schemed against so thoroughly.

If he had been careful, then his daughter would have grown up by his side; she wouldn’t have married someone as useless as Bai Qingshi, and she would have lived a good life. It was bad enough that his daughter had to suffer, but even his granddaughter had to suffer, all due to his own incompetence.

Sigh…

Yan Wanning also agreed with what Old Master Bai said. She turned to look at Bai Meiyue and said to her, “You should start paying more attention to yourself. How can you still run amok like you used to?” in the past, she was not willing to let Bai Meiyue keep this child but now that Bai Meiyue had stubbornly persisted for so long, Yan Wanning didn’t want her daughter to end up miscarrying.

“I know, Mom. I won’t do anything that will harm my son—”

“Is it all about your son?” Yan Wanning rolled her eyes. She smacked Bai Meiyue on the head and said to her, “You should take care of yourself as well. There is no point if the child is safe and healthy if his mother is not healthy. If you don’t have the strength to take care of the child, what’s the point of keeping him safe in the womb? A healthy mother and child – that is what you should be aiming for.”

Yan Wanning was really worried about her daughter. She could not understand why Bai Meiyue didn’t bother with her own health. She only cared about the condition of her son, but what about herself? It was important for the child to be safe and healthy, but there was no need for her to forgo her own self for the sake of the child.

Bai Meiyue felt her heart warm up. She reached out to hug her mother. “Mom, you are really good to me—”

“Ai, ai, ai… don’t touch me. Go and take a bath first. Look at the blood all cuddling—it looks so ugly.” Yan Wanning pushed her daughter away, but there was no heat behind her words. She just didn’t want her daughter to walk around in dirty clothes.

Bai Meiyue smiled softly when she heard her mother’s words. She straightened up and then walked inside the mansion. She felt a bit hot with the blood sticking to her clothes and skin. However, when she was done taking a bath, she realised that the temperature of the mansion had gotten even hotter. Troubled, she looked down in the living hall and was not surprised to find her elder brother being glared at hard by Tong Huan.

Bai Meiyue: “…”

She pursed her lips. A part of her didn’t want to go down, but her stomach was rumbling at that inopportune time. Even if she didn’t want to go down, Bai Meiyue knew that she had to go downstairs because her son was hungry and throwing a tantrum!

Sighing, she slowly made her way downstairs and as soon as she stepped inside the dining room, she heard Tong Huan say, “I say, are you trying to play with me, Zhan? What were you doing with that woman?”

Bai Zhan heaved a sigh of frustration before saying to Tong Huan, “I told you that I didn’t do anything. She only came to look at my work and wanted to ask if I did anything special to awaken as a supernatural being. Why are you making a fuss for no reason? Did I say that I am going to break up with you?”

Tong Huan’s eyes started to get filled with tears. She wiped them and delicately said, “Zhan, you always say this, but you still get close to that woman. I am really scared that she will snatch you away from me.”

“You are overthinking. I will never do something so despicable.”

“Then why don’t you stay at home tonight?”

“It’s not like I don’t want to, but you know that I have some work to do tonight. Yueyue gave me a new machine that needs to be fixed for security. I and Yutang are thinking about taking a look at the machine tonight.”

“What work? I think you are enjoying the attention of those vixens.”

As soon as Tong Huan finished speaking, Bai Zhan felt like his head was about to explode. He had explained again and again that he was not spending time with Xu Yiyi, that it was that woman who was coming to look for him, but Tong Huan was not willing to hear a single thing. He smacked his chopsticks on the table, but before he could lose his temper, his eyes fell on Bai Meiyue, and he sucked in a breath before getting up from the chair and heading out of the mansion.
