Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies-Chapter 409: Disappointed To The Extreme

"Why should I be the only one worrying about this family?" Bai Feng squinted his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him. "In the end, I didn't even agree to let you take so many survivors, but you kept saying that just like Xiang Mei, we can get more ability users. What happened in the end? We are now raising a bunch of strangers who have nothing to do with us. Bai Xue, is there something wrong with your head, or do you think I am a fool to raise so many useless people for no reason!?"

Bai Feng was not a fool. Not to mention, he heard Bai Meiyue say a few things to him the last time they met. She had once told him that only a fool would risk their life for someone in these times.

The apocalypse had brought the worst out in every single person. No one would be willing to sacrifice their own benefits for the sake of others. Yu Miaomiao was willing to hand over so many benefits in return for what? He didn't believe that the woman was simply a saintly woman who was just looking out for the good of the people.

In the past, Bai Feng didn't say anything to Bai Xue because the woman didn't stop on his bottom line. But now Bai Feng was gravely disappointed in her. It was bad enough that Bai Xue asked him to support the survivors at the cost of his own life and risks; now she was even asking him to join a base. They were not even clear about what was going on inside the base and who the leader was, and yet Bai Xue was so eager to hand him over to that woman.

What did she take him for? A tool that she could use and throw in the hands of others as she liked?

Even though Bai Feng didn't say anything out loud, Chu Xia and Bai Qingshi sensed that there was something amiss. The way he spoke was similar to Bai Meiyue before that woman went crazy. They looked at one another and turned to look at Bai Feng apprehensively. No, they were already suffering enough by losing control over Bai Meiyue.

They could not lose Bai Feng as well. Neither of them awakened an ability that could sustain them for long. If they were left alone, then they would die in a day or two. How would they survive then? They needed to be with Bai Feng at all costs.

Only by staying with him would they be able to live long enough to settle down.

Thus, Chu Xia immediately stepped forward. With a frown on her face, she said to Bai Xue and Bai Feng, "Alright, what's with the fighting? You two are siblings. What's the point of fighting like this? Is this such a big deal that you have to quibble in such a manner?"

"MOM!"

Bai Xue turned to look at her mother with an aggrieved expression. She wanted to speak, but she was glared at by Chu Xia, who asked her to stay quiet through her eyes. Chu Xia didn't have the patience to listen to Bai Xue's imminent complaint at the moment. She first had to stabilise Bai Feng.

Her daughter was still young, and she could not understand some things, but she did.

Bai Feng was willing to listen to them because she had whispered in his ears since he was a child. Thus, the man was completely in their control, but that didn't mean that he couldn't break free.

Just like Bai Meiyue, Bai Feng could one day step out of their grasp, and Chu Xia didn't want that! Not when her life and death were closely linked with Bai Feng.

She turned to look at Bai Xue and tried to calm her down first. "If your brother doesn't want to join the base, then there is no need to push him. Is there? We are living a good life now. Why do you have to join the base? Isn't it good to live like this?"

As soon as Chu Xia finished speaking, Bai Xue turned to look at her with a shocked expression. She thought that her mother would speak up for her, but she actually spoke up for Bai Feng!

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Bai Xue couldn't help but say. "If everyone starts thinking like this, all the hard work of the base would go down the drain. The military personnel are working so hard for us, aren't they?"

She was anxious that her parents would be convinced by Bai Feng, and she would lose the chance to get a firm position in the base. So, she immediately tried to convince her parents, "We are living a good life, but it's not comparable to Bai Meiyue! Look at how good her life is at the moment. Unlike her, we can't even meet the most basic food and clothing standards."

"Madam Yu has promised that as long as Brother Feng joins her base, she will not only take care of us, but she will also give us all a job! Isn't this good enough? We will be able to live a good life this way and we no longer have to worry about anything anymore."

When Bai Feng heard her words, he couldn't help but sneer. He thrust his hands in his black cargo pants and said in a lazy voice, "I really didn't want to say this, but now that you have brought Yueyue up, I have no choice but to say it."

"The reason she is living a good life is because she has the guts to face the zombies outside. Do you think she is eating and drinking without any worries?"

"What's more, she has rescued only those who could help her. There is nothing wrong with saving a person with indiscriminate kindness, but it's another thing to raise them like they are your ancestors! Bai Meiyue is willing to use the survivors."

"And she is not hiding in her house. Because she is leading them by example, every single survivor under her wing is willing to fight zombies and at the same time they are creating some value of their own."
