Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies - Chapter 334

Chapter 334: Polite words, barbed wires
The teen girl was so embarrassed that she didn’t know where to put her face. She really never thought that Bai Meiyue would be this skilled. If she had known the extent of her power, she would never have come here to embarrass herself in front of her.

What was more, this woman was not just powerful; she was much more skilled than any other ability user as far as the young girl knew. The way Bai Meiyue could control the water and its movement was not something that someone would learn in a day or two.

She could actually make the water chase after its prey; this was something that the woman wanted to learn but couldn’t because it was that difficult! She had tried all kinds of cultivation methods, but even now she could not get the hang of such skilled control over her abilities.

And yet Bai Meiyue could do it effortlessly. It was enough to show the disparity between the two.

“Do you think I will tell you just because you asked me?” Bai Meiyue sneered coldly.

“Hahaha!” Lei Qian, who was bursting with anger, ended up laughing out loud when he saw how the person who had looked for trouble for them was embarrassed by Bai Meiyue.

Even Lu Yu was quite satisfied upon seeing the condition of the little girl.

Though he had nothing against her, she did embarrass him just now.

“What’s going on?” Lu Jingguo looked at the little girl who was drenched from head to toe and then turned to look at Bai Meiyue and the rest of her team. He had a feeling that this matter was closely related to them; thus, he waited for them to tell him what was going on.

However, Bai Meiyue didn’t say a word. She simply shrugged, as in her eyes there was nothing to explain. Such a thing was quite common, and it happened all the time, as ability users were used to fighting with one another for the sake of getting stronger.

Thus, there was nothing wrong with something like this.

Seeing that she was not speaking, Lu Jingguo turned to look at Lei Qian just as Bai Feng walked over with a bag of supplies. When he saw the sparks in the air, he paused and turned to look at Bai Meiyue and asked, “Are you okay?”

Bai Meiyue: “…”

Lei Qian: “…”

The girl who was beaten up: “…”

Look at her condition; she was beaten up so badly that her face turned into that of a pig and he was showing concern to Bai Meiyue? What kind of tragedy was this?

“Leader, can’t you see that the one who got injured is Lu Xinran?” Lu Jingguo was quite upset when he saw that Bai Feng was concerned about Bai Meiyue but didn’t even take a look at his cousin.

“It’s alright,” Lu Xinran got to her feet and dusted her hands. Because she awakened as an ability user, the little injuries that she got all over her body soon recovered. She turned to look at her cousin and said to him, “I am fine. We were just taking a look at each other’s skills and ended up getting a bit too far. I heard from the others that Miss Bai is really skilled in water-type ability.”

“Because I was curious, I ended up challenging her. There is no need to fret, brother.”

She then turned to look at Bai Meiyue and the rest before introducing herself with a smile, “I am Lu Xinran. Nice to meet you.”

She then pointed at the man standing next to Bai Feng before saying to them, “And he is my cousin, Lu Jingguo.”

After speaking, she noticed that Bai Feng was looking at her with some dissatisfaction. Lu Xinran lowered her head and then walked past him to the small snack shop at the gas station.

Lu Jingguo, on the other hand, turned to look at Bai Meiyue. He was really interested in this woman, as this was his first time hearing his cousin praise someone. Thus, he couldn’t help but be curious about Bai Meiyue.

Though the man was curious about her, Bai Meiyue had no interest in him or his team. He glanced at Bai Feng, who was smiling at her in a flattering manner; when she saw the man smiling at her, her face turned cold, and Bai Meiyue turned to walk away. She didn’t want to talk with this fool, nor was she interested in getting acquainted with Lu Jingguo and the other members of Bai Feng’s team.

The one thing she was concerned about was raising her son well.

She turned on her heels and headed inside the RV.

When everyone saw her attitude, they knew that it was impossible for Bai Meiyue to be pushed forward as the leader of the team. In the end, it was Lu Yu, who was dripping with water from head to toe, who stepped forward and shook hands with Lu Jingguo.

After working in the corporate world for so long, Lu Yu had long learnt the lesson that one should never offend a smiling face. He looked at the two men and said in a half-truth and half-polite manner, “Oh, so you are related to Mister Bai? I didn’t know that the girl was related to you, or else we would have tried to solve this matter peacefully.”

“That’s alright,” though Lu Jingguo was a tad bit annoyed with Bai Meiyue’s actions, he also knew that he could not get angry. After all, he knew his cousin and understood her temper. She must have done something that caused the matter to escalate in such a manner.

Since they were in the wrong, how could he look for trouble from the start?

What was more, just like Lu Yu—Lu Jingguo was skilled in sophistication. He had been working in an official position for a long time; it would be impossible for him to charge into a battle with a spear impulsively.
