Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Lost what was most precious

"Where is he?" In the basement of a safe house, a graceful woman in her thirties walked past the multiple bodies that were lying on the floor before turning her attention to the sole survivor of the massacre.

A funnel of water kept rising above her head even though there was no source of water in the room. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}

The man who was on the floor already knew why this woman was there for him. After all, she had been chasing him for years, all because of a little mistake he made when he was young and foolish.

"Mei...Meiyue, Listen to me! I truly had no idea that boy was your son!" the man said to Bai Meiyue. With his hands raised in front of him, the man said to her, "Su Hu! That man was the one who lied to me; he said to me that — that your son was an orphan and sold him to me."

If he had known that buying that boy eleven years ago would lead to a day like this, he would have chopped Su Hu and Bai Xue's heads off instead of buying that boy!

The two of them were dead now, and they deserved it. But what about him? He was just an innocent man who was trying to make a living and survive in this apocalyptic world!

"Huang He," Bai Meiyue coldly interrupted the man while looking down at him. Her face was devoid of human emotions as she raised the water sword in her hand and pointed it at Huang He. "I am not in the mood to care about what Su Hu did or what Bai Xue did. All I want to know is, Where is my son?"

For ten years she had searched like crazy for her son, Bai Cai.

Her little Cai Cai was only six years old when that bastard Su Hu stole him from her and sold him to human traffickers. All in exchange for a sack of rice!

Her son, whom she had raised for nine months in her womb before bringing him to this world after having one foot past the doors of the underworld—he was sold off for a sack of rice!

If only—if only she had come to her senses before then her son wouldn't have been sold off.

If only she had fed Su Hu and Bai Xue, along with the rest of the Bai family, to the zombies when the end of the world came, it would have saved a lot of trouble for her!

Huang He who found himself at the sharp end of the sword gulped in terror. He wanted to tell the truth to Bai Meiyue as well. But the truth was so cruel that Huang He knew that the second he was to tell it to Bai Meiyue, he would be impaled with the long water sword in her hand.

"Mei-Meiyue, please listen to me—AHHH." Huang He had just held out his hands in front of Bai Meiyue in an attempt to plead with her but the woman was in no mood to hear anything. She raised her water sword and swiped it at Huang He, whose wrists were slashed and his palms fell on the ground.

Blood seeped through his wounds, making a puddle on the corpse-covered floor. But Bai Meiyue didn't even flinch at the sight of the blood.

After living in the apocalyptic world, where zombies roamed on the street, with law and order down the drain—this world was no longer the same. It was a dog-eat-dog world, and supernatural humans like her were not allowed to show any signs of weaknesses or else.
