Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 802

Chapter 802: Leaving Convoy

Xiao Chenye heaved a sigh of relief. If only he knew what Bai Meiyue was thinking, he would have thought twice before leaving the young master behind. He nodded before taking his leave. Once he left, Bai Jixuan turned to look at his sister and asked in a low voice, "Are you really going to keep that young master?"

Bai Jixuan did not seem to like the thought of letting that young master stay in the safe base. No matter how he looked at the situation, it seemed like Yang Wei had taken advantage of Bai Meiyue’s kindness. Just because Bai Meiyue did not want to kick the baby out of the safe base, that woman seemed to be taking advantage of Bai Meiyue’s generosity.

"There is nothing we can do, Brother Jixuan," said Bai Meiyue with a calm expression. She knew that there was no point in denying Yang Wei’s request. The woman was known for her stubborn temper. She would certainly create a fuss if she were rejected. So she might as well keep Yang Wei’s son as her hostage. Bai Wenxuan still owed her military weapons as well as a military rescue plane.

Bai Jixuan furrowed his brows. He pinched the bridge of his nose and said, "Yueyue, you do not understand. The people from the capital do not seem to be considerate. Just look at how they had ignored Mother and her plight for so many years. I don’t believe that any of them were able to see through the exchange between the fake and the real one. No matter how skilled the person who exchanged the two babies was, he or she might have left some clues behind. But look at the Bai family; they either did not care or they were too lazy to bother."

Though Bai Jixuan did not want to think the worst of the Bai family from the capital, he had little to no affection left for the people who came from the rich families. His father was a prime example of how people could change once they made it big.

Bai Meiyue did not say anything when she heard her brother’s response. She pursed her lips and then said in a low voice, "I understand what you are saying, brother. I assure you that I have absolutely no hope when it comes to the people from the Bai family."

"Then why—"

"It’s because Bai Wenxuan still owes me some things. I am keeping his son as my hostage. Instead of saying that I am being kind, it is better to say that I am leaving a way out for myself. Earlier, I believed that Bai Wenxuan would be coming to our safe base, and I would be able to exchange his convoy with the military supplies, but now that the man has failed to show up and Yang Wei wants to leave, I cannot stop her from leaving, but if the entire convoy returns, how will I receive my supplies?"

"Isn’t it better to keep the child with us? Not only can we say that we kept the child with us to keep him protected, but we can also let go of the worries." Though Bai Meiyue was annoyed, she had to thank Yang Wei for being stupid. If there was someone else in place of that woman, they would have thought twice before leaving their young child behind. But Yang Wei was an idiot through and through.
