Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies-Chapter 239 : Was she crying because of him?

When Bai Meiyue calmed down, she instinctively covered her belly and sighed in relief. Fortunately, fortunately, her son was fine. She then raised her head and looked at Meng Guo, who was hugged by his mother and noticed the tears in his eyes.

Seeing the poor child cry because of her, Bai Meiyue was filled with guilt. She climbed to her feet and placed her hand on top of Meng Guo's little head. With an apologetic look on her face, she said to Meng Guo, "I am sorry, little one. Did Auntie scare you?"

"Au-auntie, are you scared?" Meng Guo was indeed scared but when he saw Bai Meiyue's teary face, he still raised his head and courageously asked. Just now he saw Bai Meiyue cry really badly and wondered if she was hurt.

Auntie, are you scared? Bai Meiyue sighed when she realized that she had misheard Meng Guo just now. The boy was asking her if she was the one who was scared and she ended up terrorizing the poor child.

Bai Meiyue wiped her tears and smiled at Meng Guo kindly. She shook her head and replied, "Auntie is not scared. Thank you for caring about Auntie."

As she spoke, Bai Meiyue rummaged in her backpack and then handed Meng Guo a pack of dried jerky. "You can have this; eat it when you are hungry, alright?"

Meng Guo nodded and thanked Bai Meiyue who rubbed his head. She then raised her head and looked at Jiang Haidai with a polite expression on her face and said to her, "I am sorry. It seems like I scared your son."

"No, it's okay." Jiang Haidai didn't take the incident to heart. She didn't see any malice in Bai Meiyue's actions just now and it was clear that she was truly scared. She eyed Bai Meiyue carefully and asked in a low voice, "Are you really alright?"

"I am fine." Bai Meiyue nodded. She then turned to look at the rest of the team and bowed her head apologetically, "I am sorry; it seems like I troubled you all."

"Humph, show off," Lu Yin snorted. She turned on her feet and walked away; unlike others, she didn't believe that there was anything wrong with Bai Meiyue. This woman must have pulled that stunt to grab the attention of Lei Qian.

Since Lu Yin had done the same thing many times, she thought that the others were the same as well.

Yun Chuan glanced at Lu Yin's back with his lips twitching. He then turned to look at Bai Meiyue and said to her, "There is no need to apologize. We are a team, right? It's only right for us to support one another when we are in trouble."

"Yeah, don't think too much about it." Dacheng nodded and agreed with Yun Chuan. "It's the child's fault as well; he shouldn't have woken you up in such an abrupt manner; it must have scared you."

When Jiang Haidai heard Dacheng blame her son, she stiffened. With a turn of her head, she looked at the man with some dissatisfaction. Was this something a grown man should be saying? Her son was just three years old; how could he be blamed for something like this? It wasn't as if Meng Guo knew that Bai Meiyue was having a nightmare.

"It's not his fault," Bai Meiyue shook her head and didn't blame the child. After all, Meng Guo didn't know anything better and it was her who scared the child.

Dacheng didn't respond and simply smiled at her. As for Jiang Haidai glaring at him, Dacheng didn't care about her. The woman was weaker than him and didn't have much presence in the team. In fact, even the fact whether this woman would stay in the team or not was yet to be decided.

If not for the child , Dacheng was sure that Bai Meiyue wouldn't have bothered to bring this woman to their team. A weak woman who relied on her child, why would he bother himself with her? The only thing he cared about was making Bai Meiyue happy. If this woman was happy, then Lei Qian would be happy, and if Lei Qian was satisfied with him, then his chance of getting close to the team members would also get higher.

It was just that Bai Meiyue was not easily flattered. Even though he stood up for her just now, she still spoke up for the child. However, Dacheng was not in a hurry; he would take his time and slowly integrate himself into the team. Since he decided that he was going to become a part of this team, he was going to see through it.

He turned around and headed outside, as he knew that he couldn't continue bothering Bai Meiyue and Lei Qian lest they become disgusted with him.

"Are you really okay?" Bai Zhan asked his sister again, who nodded at him and replied, "It's nothing. I just remembered something that I didn't want to do."

As she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked outside the window. If possible, she wanted to forget the memories of the day when she found out that her son was gone forever.

The painful agony was something she never wanted to feel again.

Bai Zhan and Bai Jixuan looked at Bai Meiyue with an expression full of heartache. They then turned to look at Lei Qian and glared at him. There was only one thing that happened to their sister that could make her so scared that she cried.

Lei Qian rubbed the tip of his nose uncomfortably. He didn't think that it was because of him but since he was the criminal of the Bai family, he could only lower his head and apologise to Bai Meiyue.

"I am sorry," he lowered his head and apologised generously, which made Bai Meiyue turn and look at him with confusion in her eyes.

"Why are you apologising to me?" Bai Meiyue asked with a calm voice. Everything was fine so why was this man apologising to her out of nowhere?

This time it was Lei Qian's turn to glare at the two men. See? He knew Bai Meiyue was not crying because of him.
