97: Angry Snow White
He paused, turning to look at the still-closed door.
In that moment, his heartstrings were suddenly plucked; what should he do? He suddenly wanted to possess Wanning, to have her again, not Bai Xue.
Did he still have a chance to return to Wanning’s side? Would she be willing to forgive him?
Su Hu pursed his lips, sighed, and ultimately turned and left.
"Brother Hu, where did you go just now?" It wasn't until she reached the doorstep that Bai Xue realized Su Hu hadn't followed her.
She had initially been angry, feeling that Su Hu had betrayed her, but gradually, the anger was replaced by panic.
She had snatched Su Hu from Wanning, so she naturally knew how much Su Hu doted on that bitch before he was willing to accept her.
If she hadn't used her body and sweet words to please him, Su Hu wouldn't have given her a second glance.
Before the Apocalypse, Bai Xue had tried to bind Su Hu tightly by sleeping with him. But now that times had changed, Bai Xue began to worry whether Su Hu would abandon her at any moment.
After all, Wanning still seemed to have some supplies, and this was certain. Otherwise, she couldn't still be eating fresh, hot meals. If that woman used supplies to tempt Su Hu, would he still stay by her side?
Bai Xue liked Su Hu, even willing to get pregnant with his child to marry him.
How could she not panic?
But she still feigned gentleness and asked, "Brother Hu, did you stay behind because you wanted to talk to Sister Wanning?"
As soon as she spoke, Bai Xue didn't wait for Su Hu's response, but sighed to herself, "I know Sister Wanning is angry with us, but she shouldn't do this no matter what. Now that the world is in such chaos, we should put aside our grudges, support each other, and overcome difficulties together. But she..."
She sighed softly again and added in a low voice, "She actually called Aunt Yan and her brothers from the village. How could she do that? After all, Dad raised her for so many years, yet she could be so heartless."
Su Hu listened to her words, and his heart also sank.
He also noticed that Wanning was holding a steaming bowl of noodles, which meant that she indeed still had clean water and living supplies.
This point could not be ignored.
But she did not share these supplies with them; instead, she gave those daily necessities to Yan Meiyu and her two brothers, who hadn't grown up with her since childhood.
Su Hu couldn't help but feel that Wanning was a bit biased.
After all, he had grown up with her; compared to Bai Jixuan and Bai Zhan, he was closer to her, yet the current Wanning would rather give daily necessities to those two men than share even a little with him.
She was too much!
Bai Xue saw a hint of resentment flash in Su Hu's eyes, and finally felt relieved.
She had almost lost herself to snatch this man; how could she allow Wanning to take him back?
"Uh..."
Bai Xue turned to look at the man groaning on the ground.
Seeing Bai Minghe lying painfully on the ground, a flicker of hatred flashed in her eyes, but remembering Wanning's previous threat, she shivered and quickly said to Su Hu, "We... we should take Brother Minghe inside."
Su Hu also noticed the strong killing intent emanating from Wanning; she herself was well aware of it.
Bai Xue was worried that if something really happened to Bai Minghe, Wanning might actually kill her!
"What are you two doing?" Chu Xia was eating a hard bun when she looked up and saw Bai Xue returning with Su Hu and the dying Bai Minghe.
She remembered that they had thrown Bai Minghe outside earlier, saying he had been bitten by a Mutant Rat and might turn into a zombie. Why were they bringing him back now?
Bai Qingshi also looked up at Bai Xue in confusion.
"What's going on?" Bai Qingshi frowned, "Why did you bring him back? Aren't you afraid he'll bite us in the middle of the night?"
Bai Qingshi had always thought Bai Xue was kind-hearted, and he guessed she couldn't bear to see Bai Minghe lying outside, so she brought him home.
"Isn't it because of your precious daughter?" Bai Xue sneered and explained the whole story.
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Xia and Bai Qingshi immediately trembled with anger.
Chu Xia was almost beside herself with rage.
She had gone to great lengths to ensure Yan Meiyu would never return to the city, wanting her to die trapped in the countryside.
But now, hearing Bai Xue say that Yan Meiyu was actually living in the same top-floor apartment as Wanning, she suddenly felt a tightness in her chest and even found it difficult to breathe.
Bai Qingshi also trembled with anger. He felt that even if he hadn't paid much attention to Wanning over the years, he was still the one who raised her; wasn't he the one who provided her with food and clothes?
Now she had food and water and refused to give it to him; she was simply disrespectful and didn't know her place!
Why was she bringing Yan Meiyu and those two scoundrel sons into the city?
At the thought of Yan Meiyu, Bai Qingshi's entire old face changed, and his beard almost stood on end. When the Apocalypse came, although he was terrified, he also felt a slight relief deep down.
That woman should have died in the countryside, silently, with no body to be found, and his secret, hidden for many years, would have been buried with her.
He had once breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this time he could finally get rid of that woman without dirtying his hands, but she was actually still alive!
And living next door to them!
He and Chu Xia exchanged glances, and Chu Xia's eyes also gleamed with a sinister light.
It was such a pity that Yan Meiyu was still alive!
However, neither of them mentioned Yan Meiyu for the time being. Bai Xue only grew angrier as she spoke, feeling that Wanning's unfilial behavior was infuriating.
A smile almost touched her lips, but she ultimately forced it back, sighing softly, "Dad, I couldn't help it. Didn't you see how terrifying Sister Wanning was when she wanted to kill me? I didn't dare refuse her. At a time like this, who would dare risk offending her?"
"Lawless! That girl is completely lawless!" Bai Qingshi roared. However, his heart was not as tough as it appeared on the surface.
He knew Wanning too well.
Before he locked her in that dilapidated room back then, the look in that girl's eyes was so resentful, as if she wanted to devour him alive.
He would never forget that look for the rest of his life.
If she truly harbored murderous intent, he wouldn't doubt for a second that she would act on it.
Therefore, although he had cursed Wanning inside the house, he never dared to go out and confront her himself.
Seeing this, Bai Xue couldn't help but let out a cold snort. In fact, she had long since looked down on this so-called "father."
He had no abilities, no brains, and no strength, yet he was notoriously lustful, with little capability but much ambition, seducing three women and having children with all of them.
Even more ridiculously, such a man actually hoped to establish himself in the capital by relying on his daughter.
Initially, he barely managed to borrow some money to start a business, but within three months, he lost everything. In the end, wasn't it Wanning who desperately recovered the lost money?
Bai Xue sneered inwardly: she truly couldn't stand such a man.
