34: If it were you, would you hand over all the antidotes?

Early the next morning.

Bai Wanning stood at the courtyard gate, looking at the newly installed security door, and nodded with satisfaction.

The worker saw her and smiled warmly, saying, "Miss Bai, we have installed it as you requested, using a high-voltage power system. This not only prevents theft but also effectively deters those with ill intentions. If someone tries to forcefully break it, it can also release an electric current strong enough to cause injury."

"I've installed the main remote controls for both doors. You can control them however you like."

"There's also an additional measure." The worker tapped the iron gate opposite the mesh door and continued, "Pressing the emergency button can also activate the barbed wire. It's guaranteed to scare anyone."

Bai Wanning nodded, thanked the worker, and settled the payment.

However, as soon as she turned and walked into the courtyard, she met Bai Jixuan's scrutinizing gaze.

"Good morning, Big Brother," Bai Wanning greeted softly, but Bai Jixuan did not respond, only staring intently at the newly installed protective door.

Anger flickered in his eyes, and his heart was in turmoil.

What kind of beast had his sister encountered to be so scared that she installed such a heavily guarded door at her doorstep?

That person was dead for sure!

Bai Wanning knew her brother had misunderstood, but she didn't explain, because she knew very well that even if she did, her brother might not believe her.

Sure enough, Bai Jixuan quickly told Yan Meiyu and Bai Zhan about it. After hearing it, both of them were also filled with rage.

After the three finished breakfast, they were fully armed and stormed towards the entertainment company, ready to seek justice for Bai Wanning, even if it meant a fight to the death.

Bai Wanning did not stop them, because at this moment, she received a text message from Lu Gui, asking her to pick someone up at the warehouse.

She took the business cards her mother and two brothers had given her, pushed open the door and left home. When she arrived at the small warehouse, she saw Lu Gui standing outside the warehouse door.

The man was no longer as handsome and dashing as before; his face was gloomy, a stiff smile hung on his face, tinged with a hint of fawning.

"Miss... Miss Bai."

"CEO Lu, are you alright?" Bai Wanning smiled slightly at the stiff man.

She instantly saw the faint reproach in his eyes but didn't care, instead asking indifferently, "Are you ready to receive my family?"

Lu Gui's mouth twitched, his heart seething with anger, wishing he could tear her apart on the spot. "Don't worry, I've already informed my assistant, and she will arrange everything."

Bai Wanning nodded, then directly asked, "Where are those weapons I asked you to prepare?"

"They're all inside." Thinking that he had been played by a mere actress, Lu Gui felt deeply humiliated, but his life was more important.

As long as he could save his life now, he would make this woman cry and beg for mercy sooner or later.

Bai Wanning knew his thoughts perfectly, a slight curve on her lips, but a cold sneer in her heart.

However, on the surface, she remained calm, pretending everything was under control, and turned to walk into the warehouse. Just then... [Ding, a millennium artifact has been detected. Does the Host wish to exchange for the artifact, trade item for item, and advance to the next level?]

She paused slightly, then looked up at the blue screen that appeared before her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Well, I'll be!

She had thought this material exchange system was already heaven-defying enough, but she never expected there was still a chance to upgrade.

However, she only froze for a few seconds before quickly returning to normal, not showing any emotion, as she didn't want Lu Gui to notice anything amiss.

"Here." Lu Gui didn't notice Bai Wanning's abnormality, turning to look at her. "As per your request, I've prepared rifles, pistols, machine guns, and crossbows, and..."

He checked and recited the inventory list.

Bai Wanning, meanwhile, took advantage of his distraction to quietly put the box containing the ancient treasures into her small spatial ring, then slowly straightened up.

"Here." Lu Gui casually tossed the list Bai Wanning had given him earlier, letting it fall at her feet, his tone full of impatience: "I've kept my promise, now it's your turn."

"Alright." Bai Wanning smiled and threw a pill to Lu Gui, saying indifferently, "This is your first dose of the antidote."

"First dose?" Lu Gui caught the pill and shouted out as if struck by lightning, looking at her with shock, "What do you mean 'first dose'?"

"CEO Lu, don't be so dramatic." Bai Wanning sneered, her tone cold, "I made it very clear, this is only the first dose. You must take it continuously for four months, otherwise, your condition will only get worse."

"You... you..." Lu Gui's head exploded with a bang, and he lunged at her, roaring, "You dare to play me?"

Bai Wanning shrugged lightly, her expression calm: "CEO Lu, I've also been forced to learn my lesson by you. Don't forget, simply because my dad promised you benefits, you made him my agent and used loopholes in the contract to transfer a large sum of money from my name."

She looked up at him, a hint of sarcasm on her lips: "Compared to you, my methods are merciful."

As soon as she finished speaking, she added, with an even wider smile: "If you were me, would you be foolish enough to hand over all the antidotes at once?"

Lu Gui stared at her, his eyes full of malice, wishing he could tear her to shreds immediately.

Bai Wanning seemed to sense the murderous intent in his heart, feigning fright and covering her mouth, exclaiming, "CEO Lu, don't scare me. Do you want to kill me? But if you really kill me, who will give you the antidote?"

She winked mischievously, watching Lu Gui's face turn red with rage, and couldn't help but chuckle before striding away.

Leaving the warehouse, she looked back at the truck driver standing outside the door and instructed, "Pack these things and send them to XXX."

She gave the driver the address of the house she used to live in, then drove away, feeling cheerful and rather pleased with successfully annoying Lu Gui.

Meanwhile, inside the warehouse, Lu Gui clutched the pill tightly, panting with anger. He almost raised his hand to throw the pill away, but in the end, he held back.

Just four months, it would pass if he endured it!

After these four months, he would slowly deal with that woman!

However, he had no idea what kind of abyss the next four months would be.

Bai Wanning also didn't realize that Lu Gui still harbored resentment.

She drove around the city, visiting several pharmacies, purchasing many daily medicines, such as band-aids, iodine, fever reducers, cold medicine, vitamins, antibiotics, and so on.

She also specifically prepared headache medicine, pain relievers, and warm compresses for her mother.

After the Apocalypse, injuries almost became the norm.

These things would come in handy then, though the physiques of Awakened Ones or Ability Users far surpassed ordinary people, with astonishing recovery abilities. But what about ordinary people like her mother who had no abilities?

She didn't even know if her mother would awaken... because in her previous life, her mother had died before that.

Next, she went to the small farmhouse in the suburbs and bought some poultry.

Although pigs couldn't be raised, she had already raised several chickens, geese, and ducks in a storage room on the top floor of the house.

Afterward, she went to restock beverages, gasoline, and some important supplies.

Just as she was about to drive home, she looked up and saw the sky was overcast, with dark clouds rolling in.

Her brow furrowed, and a hint of worry flashed in her eyes.

This great storm hadn't happened in her previous life, and she dared not delay, quickly driving home.

As soon as she entered, she saw her mother sitting on the sofa in the living room, her face ashen, her eyes red, clearly having just cried.

"Mom?" Bai Wanning walked over and called out softly.
