Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies

Bai Meiyue had lived under Ji Lizheng and Yu Miaomiao, and thus, she could see things much more clearly. Unlike these soldiers who were working under the military, Bai Meiyue could notice the subtle actions of greed and power.

People like Yu Miaomiao, Ji Lizheng and Dacheng were always unwilling to be mediocre. They could do anything to achieve their ambitions. Thus, Ji Lizheng did anything that he could to get his hands on as many ability users as he could under his palms. Thus, he didn't even hold back when handing out all kinds of rewards to the ability users.

Yu Miaomiao and Ji Lizheng were greedy for power. Thus, they never cared about controlling and defending against dangers. In an apocalypse, the one thing that was more important than anything else was defence. But the two of them were eager to get more and more power.

They were eager to get quick success; thus, even though they knew that the supernatural beings were the most important pillar of their base, they pushed them to work harder, irrespective of the dangers. They never regarded the ability users as human beings. Instead, they used them as stepping stones for success.

Thus, it was not long before ability users like Bai Meiyue soon rebelled and ran out of the base after seeing the deaths of many ability users and the increasing greed of the north city base.

Of course, there were a few ability users who stayed with Ji Lizheng and Yu Miaomiao, because in their eyes, the one thing that was more important than their freedom was money.

Thus, the north city base never fell, even if it weakened a little bit.

But this had nothing to do with Bai Meiyue in this life. In her past life, she only wanted a place to stay where she could raise her son without any worries, and her ambition hadn't changed much after her rebirth. All she wanted was to give birth to her precious son and live a life of stability, safety and health.

With her ambition so shallow, she had no desire to get entangled in the power struggle. Thus, even if she were given a mountain of supplies and crystal nuclei, she would not take part in hunts.

However,

"I am worried." Bai Meiyue rubbed the tips of her fingers and pondered quietly. The reason she was worried was simple. In her past life, even though she awakened, it took years for her to get strong enough to protect herself. Thus, she was not as strong as she was back then; thus, even though she attracted the attention of Yu Miaomiao and the rest, she was not given any special attention.

Because she was not exceptional.

However, this time around, her power had crushed a bunch of people. Not to mention, it had attracted the attention of many. And she was not alone; her brothers were just the same. Their abilities were really shocking, and many would want to get control over them.

Bai Meiyue felt her head ache. She wanted to keep a low profile, but she knew that it was impossible. She rubbed her forehead and wondered if she would be able to live a comfortable life without entangling herself with Yu Miaomiao and Ji Lizheng.

She wanted to stay in the penthouse until her son was born, but it was getting more and more impossible.

And even if she somehow managed to extract herself, what about Lei Qian? She didn't believe that Yu Miaomiao would leave that man alone. Yu Miaomiao was simply obsessed with Lei Qian or any other man who was good-looking and liked to suppress them under her feet.

While Ji Lizheng hated good-looking men, he used them until they were on the verge of dying. How many men died at the hands of that man? Those ability users who were used by Ji Lizheng after getting targeted— they not only died, but even their bones were never found.

The more she thought about it, the more Bai Meiyue felt her head ache. She rubbed her head with her fingers. She couldn't even contact Lei Qian at the moment; if not, she could have at least warned the man.

"Why the long face?" Shen Zhen asked as she looked at Bai Meiyue. She turned to look at her brothers before turning to look at Bai Meiyue. She said to her, "A mother's moods affect the child; if you are upset, the child will also worry. So try to be happy such that your child will be born with a cheerful personality."

"Is that the case?" Bai Meiyue raised her head and looked at Shen Zhen worriedly. She was indeed quite worried about her son. When she heard Shen Zhen say that the child's personality depended on the mood of his or her mother, she tried to ease the worries of her heart.

"That's indeed the case," Shen Zhen said to her. She then asked with a concerned expression, "What's making you so worried? Did something happen?"

"It's nothing; I am just worried about the actions of the base leaders." Bai Meiyue could naturally not share the worries that she had in her heart with Shen Zhen. Thus, she changed the topic and questioned Shen Zhen, "Anyway, when you were working in a hospital, what would you do when someone refused to pay for their medical fees?"

"What's with the question?" Shen Zhen grinned. "What can we do? If someone plays rogue after getting their treatment, we can only let them go. It is not like we can refuse to treat them or stop the treatment. Of course, there were times we did it. But that only led to more trouble." Shen Zhen recalled how much trouble the families of the patients caused when they refused to treat them.

In the end, they had to compensate them in case the patient's family was too hard to deal with.

"Then what happened?" Bai Meiyue asked.
