Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 708

Chapter 708: Thick skin all the way

Bai Meiyue then turned to leave. Even though Fox was speaking to her with an expression that was more real than the pearls, she knew him long enough to know that the man was lying to her. She felt a bit annoyed, as she knew that the man was making up lies in front of her face, but she couldn’t do anything because Fox was nothing but a rascal. What was the point of reasoning with him when he was not even going to accept what he had done, no matter how much she pushed him?

Even if she brought those thugs out, Fox would simply confront them in a manner where those thugs would pedal back and say that they didn’t even know Fox. This was why he was so confident when he asked Bai Meiyue to bring those thugs out and let him confront them. Bai Meiyue didn’t want to waste her time, as she knew that there was no point. She rolled her eyes and then said to Xiao Wu, "Go and call Xu Yiyi. I heard that she still has some things that she is complaining about."

Meng Suisui came to her and told her that Xu Yiyi absolutely refused to let them teach her anything. In fact, she had been competing with Meng Qibao overtly or covertly. Many times she went against what Meng Qibao asked her to do, and when she was confronted, the woman sashayed her way out of the quarrel. Apparently, she had become quite a headache for Meng Qibao, who had sent his sister to relay the information to Bai Meiyue and asked her to make the decision for him.

Just thinking about Xu Yiyi and her stubborn attitude made Bai Meiyue’s headache worse. She knew that the woman was way too comfortable in what she did, but the others were not. Especially when she walked around in a lacy nightdress without wearing anything inside it. Tong Huan and many of the women had many complaints about this. Especially when these women walked around the safe zone in the same manner.

The complaints had risen to the point that Bai Meiyue could no longer ignore them, even if she wanted to turn a blind eye to Xu Yiyi and her girls.

"Okay, I will ask her to come and see you," said Xiao Wu with a nod.

Xiao Wu then glanced at Fox, who was still standing in the same spot with the same helpless expression, and stifled a smile. He then lowered his head and walked away without saying anything. He was very well aware that Fox would not try anything on Bai Meiyue, and even if he somehow managed to try something, Bai Meiyue would deal with him.

"Yueyue, I know that you are angry, but try to understand. It wasn’t easy for me to come here. There are more than three thousand people who are waiting for me to bring back supplies. You have no idea how long they had been starving. I know that I was the one who was in the wrong; I shouldn’t have tried to steal the mutated soil and crops from your mother’s greenhouse. I am sorry; I will slap myself to make it up to you."

Fox gritted his teeth and insisted, "But those people—" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Then you can simply purchase the frozen meat that we are selling. You are already aware of the prices, aren’t you?" said Bai Meiyue as she crossed her arms over her bosom and stared at the man with a smirk on her lips. "I don’t think the prices that we have set are unjust."

"I will buy it. No matter what the price, I will buy it. I have plenty of crystal nuclei for buying meat," said Fox. He had more than eight hundred ability users; with them in his hands, there was nothing that he feared when it came to purchasing things. Anyway, they had been killing the mutated bugs all this time; thus, they had a lot of crystal nuclei that they could use to purchase the supplies. He didn’t fear a thing!

When Bai Meiyue saw his cheeky smile, she felt her brows twitch. Ordinarily, if there was someone else who was caught stealing from someone’s house, they would be too embarrassed to come and look Bai Meiyue in the eye and yet Fox didn’t care about anything. Even though he was caught and confronted for stealing the soil and crops, he was still thick-skinned enough to come and act coy with Bai Meiyue.
