"Should we run?" someone in the team suggested. When Bai Meiyue heard his suggestion, she shook her head and pinched the space between her brows. It was not that she did not want to run or that she was scared to run but the situation did not allow her to! Lei Qian was injured and the reproduction capability of the mutated bugs was just too strong; even if they tried to run away from this place, they might never be able to escape the mutated bug wave.
"Run away? Have you lost your mind?" Xiao Wu was first to bang his fist on the table and said angrily, "How can we run away? Have you forgotten how many pregnant women, children and elderly we have? If we run away, who is going to take care of those people? We are not like Yu Miaomiao and Dacheng, who just abandoned these survivors and left on their own. They even sent more than fifty pregnant women to our base as if we have the responsibility to raise them. Who do they think they are!?"
Mother Bai also shook her head and stated her stance, "He is right, we are not alone. We have people we need to take care of. There is also Yueyue. She is pregnant and her child is going to be born any day now. If we leave now and she is tossed around, what would happen if she gives birth in between? How will we arrange everything? We can’t even be sure that Yueyue would be able to have the child on her own!" what if she needed a c-section. What would happen then?
They had already taken root in this place; they had greenhouses, farms and fields with warehouses that were filled with grains and seafood. If they moved now, then they would have to move the entire base with them. The crops, the medical supplies, the old and the young...how could they take care of everything in such a short while? It was nearly impossible.
"Alright, there is no need to think too much," Bai Meiyue raised her voice and ended the quarrel. "It seems like we cannot move for the time being. Since we cannot move, we can only arrange for the defences to get stronger. No one is allowed to leave or enter the base, no matter who this person is. Even if they beg and create a fuss, don’t let them in. Secondly, everyone should start putting up defences. Brother Zhan, Brother Jixuan, I will leave this matter to you and the rest of the team. Lastly, " She sucked in a breath and added, "I am sure that everyone knows that Master Lei is injured and needs a lot of rest. Since that is the case, the Lei family will soon be in trouble, which means that those from the Lei family will soon come looking for them. Try your best to hold them off and don’t let them sneak inside."
Bai Meiyue arranged everything neatly; she did not want anyone to cause trouble for Lei Qian but at the same time she knew that Lei Wu must have left a few spies in this base. He was such a despicable person who wanted to step on Lei Qian’s head. How could he let such an opportunity go? What was more, she knew that such a twisted person would definitely come after her as well.
Since she was carrying Lei Qian’s child, what would be a bigger blow to Lei Qian than his cousin ruining her?
