Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 99

Bai Meiyue was aware of Ni Baoguo’s glare as well as his hatred but she did not care about him. He was not the first one to hate her because she had killed his family member nor would he be the last.

After all, there were many like him who could not accept the fact that their loved ones had turned into monsters and were already dead. They would rather accept them turning into zombies than accept that their loved ones would never return.

When the two of them arrived at their floor, Bai Meiyue could feel several gazes looking at her. She calmly glanced at the crowd of people before looking away.

Seeing that she was not paying attention to them, one of the men couldn’t help but speak up.

"Are you really going to leave us here? Can’t you see how dangerous these monsters are? You have the means so why don’t you help us?"

Hearing the words of the man, Bai Meiyue bared her teeth. She calmly said, "Whether you live or die, what does that have to do with me? I can save you today but I can’t protect you all my life, can I? And even if I can, why should I? Who are you to me?"

"Don’t you have any humanity left in your heart!?" The man snapped when he heard her words. He thought Bai Meiyue was going too far. They were obviously scared and just wanted to live somewhere safe; with Bai Meiyue’s electric door, those things would never be able to enter the corridor. So why couldn’t she let them stay inside in the corridor?

In response to his words, Bai Meiyue simply smiled and stated, "Look outside; humanity is long dead."

On the other hand, in the penthouse where the Lei family were living at the moment, clouds of gloom were hanging low.

Mother Lei looked at the streets through the windows and shook her head. "What are we going to do? What are we even going to do?" She repeated the same thing over and over again, as if she would be able to find a way to solve this problem if she continued to repeat these words.

She turned to her husband, who was looking grim and asked, "What should we do now? The world has really fallen into chaos; how are we going to live in a world like this?!"

Father Lei had no words. He studied the zombies that were swaying stiffly while wading through water that was still flowing in the streets.

When Mother Lei saw that her husband was not speaking, she became even more worried. With her hand outstretched, she shook her husband lightly.

"Huh? What?"

"I asked you how we are going to survive?" Mother Lei repeated. "We don’t have enough supplies to last for long. Do you think the army will come to save us?" She asked tentatively.

Father Lei pursed his lips. He neither agreed nor denied. However, both of them already knew the answer. When they were trapped in Cloud City, no one came to rescue them. At most, the soldiers stationed at the borders of the city stopped anyone from going in and out.

It was quite clear that this situation was now out of the hands of even the government.

"...Then are we going to wait for death?" Mother Lei asked the most tricky question, causing the entire family to turn silent.

"Do you even care about your old mother? Did you even think about me before rushing into such a dangerous situation?"

"Mom, it’s my fault." Bai Meiyue felt a bit of guilt in her heart when she saw her brother getting beaten up. She deliberately ran down because she wanted to start with her big brother and help him awaken. She wanted her brother to come out of his delusion and face reality.

The world was like this already so what was the point of hoping that someone would come and rescue you? And even if they were rescued once and twice, would someone help them for all their lives?

It was better to pin the hopes on their shoulders rather than someone else. _{freewёbnoνel.com}

But as she saw the fear in the eyes of her mother, whose hair had long turned grey after the sufferings she went through at the hands of Bai Qingshi, Bai Meiyue realised that she might have been a bit too hasty.

Though she succeeded in awakening her brother, she also made her mother worry.

She pursed her lips and said, "If you want to blame someone, blame me. I was the one who was in the wrong."

"Bai Meiyue, you—"
