147: Unprovoked anger

Meng Suisui turned to look at Meng Qibao, who was standing beside her, and gave him a gentle smile.

“Let’s go,” she said softly, “Older Sister will make you braised pork.”

Meng Qibao, who had been roaring like a wild dog, immediately quieted down when he heard this, and swallowed hard.

“Go! Go! Go!” he excitedly grabbed his Older Sister’s shoulders, turned her around, and led her into the house.

Although they had been eating well these past few days, those meals, in the end, were given to them out of pity by Bai Wanning and Aunt Yan.

Even though they helped out a bit in the greenhouse, they didn’t do much work, so it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that these meals were charity from the Bai family.

But today’s meal was something they had earned themselves.

Meng Suisui and Meng Qibao entered the apartment, showered, changed clothes, and then went to the kitchen together to cook.

The aroma of the food filled the air, and as soon as they took a bite, they couldn't help but shed tears.

They swore that from today onwards, they would go out and kill zombies like Bai Wanning, and even if it was difficult at first, they would learn.

Being able to support themselves was enough.

Because this meal, they had earned it themselves.

At the same time, Wang Ba was trying to prevent Director Wang from following Bai Wanning.

Although Director Wang was robust and had good stamina, he was old after all; how could he go and fight zombies?

But Director Wang didn’t listen at all.

He knew he might hold Bai Wanning back, but he also knew even more clearly, what if Bai Wanning was too busy and forgot to look for his wife?

He had to go personally to confirm with his own eyes whether his wife was alive or dead.

What’s more, even a girl as frail as Meng Suisui, who looked like she would fall over in a gust of wind, could wield a knife and kill zombies.

How could he, a man who had been a soldier, stay at home and wait for news?

He had to go!

On the other side, Da Cheng was talking to Lu Yin.

Because Lu Yu stayed at home, Lu Yin couldn't go alone either.

Seeing that Da Cheng was going, she could only beg him, hoping he would take her with him.

She couldn't let Bai Wanning and Lei Qian’s relationship advance any further.

The two had already slept together.

Lei Qian liked Bai Wanning so much; their relationship would warm up sooner or later, and she had to stop it.

Otherwise, who else could she rely on?

She had no ability, no power, and no superpower.

Da Cheng listened to her pleas and immediately felt his self-esteem soar, readily agreeing to take her with him.

Only then did Lu Yin breathe a sigh of relief.

As long as she could follow Bai Wanning and Lei Qian's group, she would still have a chance to control the situation.

Everyone who wanted to participate in the hunt was ready.

Even Bai Wanning had finished washing up and taken some steamed buns and dried meat from the kitchen.

Mother Bai wanted to hand her an entire package of supplies, but Bai Wanning refused; the food in her space pocket was enough, she wouldn't starve to death.

As for the others, if they wanted to go out hunting with her, they should bring their supplies; if they couldn't bring them, then they might as well die outside and not come back to bother her.

She had no intention of supporting a group of idlers.

As soon as she went downstairs and headed to the garage with her two Older Brothers, she saw Lei Qian wearing a neatly ironed white shirt tucked into black pants, with a double shoulder holster slung across him.

“Wanning!” Lei Qian was studying the City Hospital map with Yun Chuan, discussing tactical arrangements.

Seeing Bai Wanning walk over, his eyes immediately lit up.

Her Older Brothers guarded her on either side, while she herself looked calm, walked steadily, and exuded a cold, capable aura that Lei Qian couldn't take his eyes off.

He flipped the map over as he walked up to her and said, “We’re figuring out how to get into the City Hospital. Yun Chuan says the main entrance is definitely surrounded by zombies, so we’re thinking of trying to go in through the back door.”

Bai Wanning glanced at the map and nodded.

The City Hospital was no small place; unlike the county hospital, it was larger in scale and more complex in structure.

If they were really looking for someone, this map was indeed very useful.

She paused, her gaze falling on Director Wang.

He was holding a large machete, his expression heavy.

“Director Wang, which department is your wife in?” Bai Wanning asked.

“Cardiology.” Director Wang sighed, his voice low.

His wife had been admitted to the hospital three weeks before the Apocalypse.

If he had known the Apocalypse would come so quickly, he shouldn't have sent her to the hospital; he should have invited specialists to their home directly, and perhaps the outcome would have been different.

Bai Wanning nodded and walked towards a new car driven out of the exhibition hall. As soon as she pulled open the car door, she keenly sensed someone following her from behind.

She stopped, turned, and looked at the man following her, narrowing her eyes: “What exactly do you want to do?”

“I can’t drive.” Lei Qian lied without changing his expression.

Bai Wanning, of course, knew he was lying.

She rolled her eyes, too lazy to expose him, snorted, and turned to sit in the driver’s seat.

Seeing that she didn't stop him, Lei Qian chuckled and sat in the passenger seat.

Lu Yin arrived at this moment and, seeing Lei Qian already in Bai Wanning’s car, her face immediately darkened.

She knew she definitely couldn't get into that car.

Bai Wanning and her two Older Brothers didn't think much of her, and the only empty seats in that car were reserved for supplies.

In the other cars, Meng Suisui, Meng Qibao, and the people Lei Qian brought were also arranged, and seats were tight.

In the end, Lu Yin could only get into the small farm vehicle with Da Cheng.

As soon as she got in, she smelled the pig manure coming from the back of the car and immediately wrinkled her nose, her face full of disdain.

Although she was extremely annoyed, she still had to lean over and talk to Da Cheng; even if he was just a farmer, she had to rely on him.

Da Cheng had awakened his ability; he was a super-powered individual.

And she had nothing.

Even if Da Cheng wasn't as skilled as Lei Qian, in a critical moment, he could at least save her life.

The convoy of four vehicles slowly drove out from downstairs.

Mother Bai stood on the balcony enclosed by greenhouse panels, watching the convoy leave, her face full of anxiety, her hands tightly clasped together, silently praying that her children would return safely.

But as soon as the car drove out, a cold wind hit them, and Bai Wanning had to close the window. However, as soon as the window was closed, a pungent perfume smell wafted in, making her stomach churn.

She inhaled the air blown from the fan, turned to look at the man beside her, “Did you spray perfume?”

“And such a pungent cologne?”

“Ah, is there a problem?” the man asked innocently.

Is there a problem? Is there a problem!

Of course there is!

Bai Wanning's entire face flushed with anger.

She was pregnant with her son and couldn't even stand the incense Mother Bai lit every morning at home, yet this man had sprayed such strong cologne.

Is there any fairness in this world? Not only did she have to drive, but she also had to scout for information, kill zombies, rescue people, and retrieve medicine, while this man walked around dressed like a mascot.

Who was the “man” in this relationship?!

Lei Qian naturally saw the anger in her eyes. He raised his hands, wanting to apologize, but as soon as he raised his hands, the smell of cologne became even stronger, spreading everywhere.

Bai Wanning was both angry and annoyed by the man's foolish behavior. With a wave of her hand, she directly conjured a water ball and threw it at him.
