Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies-Chapter 701: The Weasel came Knocking

"There is no need to explain anything to me." Bai Meiyue waved her hand and said to the two siblings, "You both are grown-ups; as long as you know what you are doing, it’s fine. You know what kind of character your cousin, Anzhi, has. Even though she is the only daughter of your aunt and uncle, even the closest relation wouldn’t be willing to help anyone in these times. The most dangerous thing in the post-apocalyptic world is a human heart. This is something that you two might have already learnt. I think you should ask her to leave this place and go to the capital or somewhere else, because if she stays here, sooner or later she will try to gain benefits from the two of you."
Bai Meiyue didn’t like Meng Anzhi. Although Meng Anzhi was not a murderer, criminal or arsonist, she was evil and treacherous. She also had a rift with Bai Meiyue. She had once condemned Bai Meiyue and tried to drag her down using morals, and each time they ran into one another, Bai Meiyue had seen Meng Anzhi trying to take advantage of the Meng siblings. More importantly, Meng Anzhi was in the car with the rest of the survivors from Yu Miaomiao’s faction.
This was why Bai Meiyue was very careful regarding Meng Anzhi’s presence. Maybe she was being too sensitive, but being cautious had never harmed anyone.
Meng Suisui and Meng Qibao looked a bit troubled. They exchanged a look with one another and nodded, their faces bearing a tired expression. Meng Qibao assured Bai Meiyue, "Don’t worry, once the interrogation is done, we will ask her to leave. At most, we will give her some supplies. As for whether she would be able to survive or not, it will depend on her luck."
Meng Suisui looked at her brother but didn’t contradict him. It was not that she had forgotten what Meng Anzhi did to them; she just felt sorry for her cousin. Earlier, when the two of them ran into Meng Anzhi, Meng Suisui didn’t know how or where to begin. In fact, she couldn’t even believe that the person in front of her was Meng Anzhi, as she couldn’t recognise her for a good five minutes and even asked the guards who brought Meng Anzhi to her whether they brought the correct person.
The Meng Anzhi she knew was full of vibrant essence, but the current Meng Anzhi – where should she even begin? She had lost all of her glow. Even though she couldn’t be considered beautiful in the past, at least she was youthful and cute. But Meng Susiui didn’t know what Meng Anzhi went through when she and Meng Qibao were trapped inside the aura ball. But when she saw her again, the woman was covered in black and purple from head to toe. Not a single spot was left untouched.
Her hair was a mess. There were countless bald spots on her head as if someone had pulled and ripped her hair off her scalp. The clothes that she was wearing were filthy to the point that Meng Suisui started questioning when the last time Meng Anzhi had washed her clothes was. And the skirt that she was wearing was way too small, and without a pair of underpants, she was flashing her business to everyone who walked past her.
The expression on her face was dazed, and Meng Suisui had to call her many times before Meng Anzhi replied to her. And her body odour was not only sour but also rather unpleasant.
Seeing her cousin in this state, Meng Suisui just felt compassionate. She wanted to ask Bai Meiyue if she could take Meng Anzhi under her care because she didn’t want Meng Anzhi to live her life like that anymore, but before she could even bring herself to tell Bai Meiyue this request of hers, Bai Meiyue stated resolutely that she was not going to let Meng Anzhi stay here in the safe base.
But then again, the one who made this choice was Meng Anzhi. She could have followed her and Meng Qibao and learnt how to kill zombies. She didn’t do that. Instead, she followed Su Hu; since she made that choice, she would have to face the consequences herself.
This was something that Meng Suisui and Meng Qibao understood really well. At the beginning, there were only two teams. Bai Meiyue and Bai Xue’s. They made two complete decisions. Back then, Meng Suisui and Meng Qibao came to ask for work from Bai Meiyue and started working in exchange for a few bites of food.
But what about Meng Anzhi? She raised her hand and pointed at Bai Meiyue before calling her a cold-blooded woman who couldn’t see the sufferings of others, and said it was her fault that they were suffering. Back then, Bai Meiyue might have shown them some mercy, but now Bai Meiyue was only doing what Meng Anzhi blamed her for doing. Who could she blame if not herself?
"But I didn’t come here for Meng Anzhi," said Bai Meiyue. Since the Meng siblings had promised her that they would send Meng Anzhi away, she was not going to make things difficult. "I wanted to ask whether you two can take care of the girls brought by Xu Yiyi? Teach them some skills to earn crystal nuclei and fend for themselves without selling bodies. You are free to teach them anything that you want; just make sure that they stop doing their skin business."
"Anything?"
"Anything; you can even teach them singing and dancing," said Bai Meiyue as she shifted her weight to her left foot. "Can you do it?"
"Okay, I will see what I can do," Meng Qibao agreed.
After Bai Meiyue finished speaking, she turned around and walked to the backyard of the mansion, this was because she saw a tuft of white fur sticking out from one of the strawberry bushes.
