Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 226

Bai Meiyue rolled her eyes before pushing Lei Qian away from her. She said to him, "I can hear you just fine; there is no need for you to push your face into mine!"

This face of his was her weakness. Who asked Little Cai to take after his father instead of her? That little brat, even before he was born, favoured his father more than he favoured his mother. Humph, who carried him for nine months in her belly? Who went through the pain and sufferings of giving birth to a child? And yet the child took after his father.

Because she loved Little Cai more than she loved herself, naturally Lei Qian also had a soft spot in her heart.

Lei Qian was not angry when he was pushed to one side; instead, he licked the inside of Bai Meiyue’s palm, which made her pull her hand away almost immediately.

"Are you a dog?" She snarled while wiping her hands on the jacket that she was wearing.

"Woof, Woof," Lei Qian barked with a smile on his face before questioning, "What are you looking for?" Though she didn’t say anything, Lei Qian knew that there was something else that she was looking for other than the mutated cows.

"I told you —"

"I know that you are looking for mutated cows but other than that," he blinked his eyes and looked at Bai Meiyue with a knowing look in his eyes. He didn’t call her a liar outright but his meaning was quite clear.

Realising that she couldn’t hide it from him, Bai Meiyue rolled her eyes and replied calmly, "I am looking for the valuable antique that was found in this village before the apocalypse started."

"Antique? Why do you need an antique for?" Lei Qian asked with confusion brimming in his tone. He could understand her love for gold and diamonds, but why was she looking for antiques?

He looked at her and asked, "Yueyue, do you like collecting antiques?"

Now that he thought about it, he remembered that Lei Yan told him about Bai Meiyue taking a precious antique from their family in exchange for helping her collect supplies.

Back then, he didn’t think too much. He thought that Bai Meiyue was simply asking for the antique in exchange to make Lei Yan independent lest she start depending on her. But it seemed like Bai Meiyue really liked antiques!

"I won’t say that I like them but if someone is offering, then I will take them without any problem," Bai Meiyue replied vaguely. She turned her face away from him and rushed to the zombie that staggered over to where the two of them were standing.

She hacked down one and chopped three before collecting the crystal nuclei and moving forward.

She then heard Lei Qian say, "Why don’t you stop your second brother?"

"From what? Gruelling you?" Bai Meiyue chuckled as she walked forward. She continued to clean up the path in front of them and at the same time she kept an eye on the notification screen of the system. However, even after cleaning up more than ten zombies, she didn’t see the system making a sound, which made her wonder if the antique was really taken away by someone.
