Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies - Chapter 155

Chapter 155: Wants to become the leader
“We have like eighty people waiting to be fed,” Su Hu spread his hands in front of Bai Xue and questioned her angrily, “How are we going to feed every single one of them? Did you even think before letting them stay here?”

More than eighty people were enough to cause trouble for them. Even if they could prove helpful, there was a really good chance that they could also cause trouble for them. What if these survivors didn’t get anything to eat for another three or four days? Wouldn’t they attack them?

“Are you getting angry at me?” Bai Xue raised her head with an aggrieved look in her eyes. With her lip jutting out, she looked at Su Hu with a hint of coquetishness. “Who am I doing this for? Aren’t I doing it because I was worried that we will have nothing to eat in the coming days? I thought that as long as we have enough people with us, we won’t have to worry about anything.”

When Su Hu heard her aggrieved voice, he couldn’t stay angry with her anymore. He sighed and hugged her. “Okay, okay. Don’t get angry. I only said that because I was worried those people would cause trouble for us.”

“Hmm,” Bai Xue buried her face into Su Hu’s arms; however, once her face was hidden, Bai Xue raised her hand and started nibbling on her thumbnail. The reason she allowed Xiang Mei and the rest to stay here was because she wanted them to steal Bai Meiyue’s supplies.

But this time around, she not only failed to get what she wanted, but she even raised a stone to smash it on her foot. Not only did she fail to get any advantage, but she also caused trouble for herself.

Su Hu was right. These people were like ticking bombs; if she did not deal with them properly, they would certainly cause trouble for her and her family. No matter what, she first needed to arrange these people properly or else she would be too worried about her safety.

Her head was hurting as she thought about this matter in her hand.

“Why don’t we ask them to take their supplies out?” Chu Xia, who was sitting in the corner, suggested. She looked at her daughter and Su Hu before saying, “These people must be hiding some supplies with them, so why not take them? That way we will have enough supplies to distribute until Ah Feng returns. We just need to control them until Ah Feng comes back; after that, everything will be alright.”

Bai Xue pulled away from Su Hu and blinked her eyes. She nodded and agreed with what Chu Xia said. That’s right; now that everyone was in the same boat, there was no point in hiding any supplies.

“You are right; how about we arrange a small system like summer camps? We will register the names, ages, and genders of the people who came to live with us and ask them to hand over their supplies. These things will be confiscated and those who refuse will not be given any support by us when Brother Feng returns. We will also set a time to distribute the supplies such that no one would take advantage of others.”

Bai Xue’s mental calculator was clicking left and right. She looked at her parents and with her heart pounding, she said, “What do you say? We can establish a base this way, right?”

If she succeeded, then she would become a big shot in the apocalypse! Just the thought of her beautiful future made Bai Xue smile happily.

“Hmm,” Bai Qingshi brushed his fingers over his moustache and remarked, “You have a wonderful idea, Xuexue but you are forgetting that there are two more families living on this floor. If they don’t join, then how can we set a system?”

More importantly, the one living in 5003 was Bai Meiyue. That woman seemed to have gone crazy; if they went to her house and suggested that they wanted to build a base with her house aligned with theirs, would Bai Meiyue agree?

Bai Xue turned quiet. If she was being honest, she was quite scared of Bai Meiyue. Ever since she was dragged by Bai Meiyue outside, Bai Xue felt a bit unstable. It was human instinct to do things that would help them, even if they were a tad bit selfish.

She didn’t do anything wrong; it was Bai Meiyue’s fault that she refused to hand over the supplies that she had been hiding in her house. But the way Bai Meiyue reacted, it made her wonder if she wanted to kill her nonethless?

Could it be that after Bai Meiyue found out the truth, she was holding a bloody grudge against them? That shouldn’t be the case; they have done a good job in brainwashing that woman. How could Bai Meiyue kill her?

Bai Xue pursed her lips and started chewing the inside of her cheek. If she was being honest, the sudden change in Bai Xue threw her off. After all, Chu Xia raised Bai Meiyue and Bai Feng to support Bai Xue.

Both of them were nothing but stepping stones for Bai Xue. While Bai Meiyue was supposed to set up the stage for Bai Xue’s fantastic debut, Bai Feng was supposed to take care of the company and help Bai Xue like a slave all his life.

Though Bai Feng was still the same, Bai Meiyue had completely gone off the track, which made Bai Xue upset. No, that woman was destined to be suppressed under her foot all her life; she could never escape the fate that had been set for her.

Anyway, a person cannot change so much in just a few weeks or month. Bai Meiyue was raised by her mother for years; how could she change so suddenly? Bai Meiyue cared so much about her before; she must care about her somewhere still, right? That fool, Bai Meiyue, caught Bai Xue doing things to hurt her so many times. She had forgiven her then; surely she would forgive her this time too?

Thinking like this, Bai Xue became more courageous.
