Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 142

"Oh, thank goodness, you all came back!"

The second Bai Meiyue and her brothers opened the door of the penthouse and stepped inside. Mother Bai, who was waiting anxiously for their return, rushed over and threw herself in Bai Meiyue’s arms.

"Mom? What’s the matter?" Bai Meiyue thought that her mother was worried because they returned late. She patted her mother on the back and said to her, "It’s alright, aren’t we back safe and sound?"

"It’s not that," Yan Wanning pulled away and wiped her eyes. She still had some lingering fear and said to Bai Meiyue, "Last night after you left, a bunch of people rushed over and tried to break down the door that you have installed at the end of the corridor. Fortunately, the door is really strong and sturdy, so it didn’t break."

"Those people then left cursing and said that they were going to think of a way to break the passcode. I was so scared that I didn’t dare to sleep the entire night! Even the kids were scared and only fell asleep just an hour ago."

"I was really terrified. I thought that they were going to come back before you three could return. Fortunately, fortunately," she patted her chest and sighed in relief. "It was you three who came back."

"I heard from Mrs. Lei that the survivors have gone crazy. A few days ago, some refugees came to this building. They promised Ni Baoguo some supplies and that man let them stay in the building. Those people actually killed someone! Now these survivors are all staying in the apartment that they broke into."

After she finished speaking, Yan Wanning looked really upset. How could she not? Though the situation outside was not good, it wasn’t bad to the point where people had to rely on killing others. And yet—

She sighed and said, "It’s all thanks to Mister Lei that those people left. I asked him to threaten those people and only then did they leave. I don’t know how they found out that I was all alone in the house. I actually heard someone say that they knew that I was alone."

After she finished speaking, Yan Wanning trembled even more. "It is a good thing that you made such preparations earlier, Yueyue. If not for these safety precautions, maybe you and your brothers wouldn’t see me and the kids again."

Bai Jixuan was so angry that he cursed, "Damn, which bastard is playing tricks behind our backs?" he turned to look at Bai Zhan and said to him, "Brother, we have to settle the score with them!"

"Don’t be impulsive," Bai Zhan said, stopping his brother from running out of the house. He turned to look at his mother, who was still terrified and said to her, "Mom, you should go and take a nap. Now that we are back, no one will dare cause trouble for you."

"That’s right, Mom." Bai Meiyue looked at her mother’s face and noticed two heavy dark circles under her eyes and remarked, "Leave this matter to us and go and take some rest. We will deal with the rest of the matter."

The three siblings took turns comforting Yan Wanning and took her to the bedroom. It took a few hours for Yan Wannin to stop fretting and go to sleep but she was so tired that once her head hit the pillow, she ended up falling asleep almost at once.
