Since Boss Du was determined to deepen this grudge for a woman, she would make him regret the very day he took Fang Fei.
She had always been clear about grudges and rewards.
Bai Meiyue already had a plan in her mind. However, before she could discuss with Lei Qian, the sound of sudden footsteps stopped her. She raised her head and turned to look behind her, just in time for the door to burst open.
"Yueyue, are you in there?" Bai Jixuan asked. The man seemed to have just woken up and looked really worried. His hair was a mess and looked like a bird nest, and his clothes were ruffled. He looked around wildly, but when he saw that his sister was alright, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"Second Brother, what's the matter?" Bai Meiyue asked.
"I was worried that you went outside," replied Bai Jixuan. His sister had the habit of sneaking out of the house when the apocalypse started; thus, even though she had stopped doing it, Bai Jixuan couldn't help but be worried. When he heard that there was a shootout, he couldn't help but rush to Bai Meiyue and see if everything was alright or not.
After confirming that his sister was alright, Bai Jixuan turned and looked at Lei Qian, who was standing next to his sister. He asked, "What about you? Why are you here?" Bai Jixuan still didn't like Lei Qian, even though the man was now the father of his sister's child; in Bai Jixuan's eyes, Lei Qian would always be the wild man who had taken advantage of his sister.
His sister had just turned eighteen, while Lei Qian was older than her. Even if Bai Meiyue was the one who jumped into his arms, Lei Qian should have resisted!
"I came because I was also worried about Yueyue, Second brother," Lei Qian knew that if he admitted that he slept with Bai Meiyue, Bai Jixuan would beat him until he saw his ancestors. So, he had no choice but to lie.
Bai Jixuan looked at him with a frown on his face. Seeing this, Lei Qian smiled and changed the topic, "I heard from the survivors outside that the people from the tiger gangs have started to rob and steal supplies from people. From the looks of it, they are backed by someone; even though they live in the base, no one is doing anything to them."
"From the looks of it, they are doing anything that they want to," Lei Qian sighed. "Even in the past, they would do such things; however, they are really good at hiding, and it's really difficult to find their lair. That's the only reason why they have been acting so bold."
He then turned to look at Bai Meiyue and said to her, "Don't go looking for them for the time being; they have all kinds of weapons that they could use, and there is also the matter of their leader being an ability user."
Lei Qian knew that Bai Meiyue was the kind of person who would repay kindness with kindness, and she would also be quick to repay hatred with hatred. He really couldn't let the woman act impulsively. She was pregnant with their child, and the last thing he needed was for her to charge ahead and fight with a dangerous gang.
Bai Meiyue rolled her eyes and changed the topic, "I think we need to pay attention to the weather for the time being. I saw a few coughing. It seems like there will be a flu outbreak."
Upon hearing her response, Lei Qian turned serious and he nodded. "That's right; we need to cover our nose and mouth everywhere we go."
With the topic successfully diverted, Bai Meiyue didn't let the man discuss the matter of the tiger gang with her, but that didn't mean that she had forgotten about it.
That night, when everyone had fallen asleep, Bai Meiyue went to look for Xiao Wu, who was sleeping in an apartment that he had chosen for himself. However, even though he was asleep, he had grown up among the thugs and troublemakers. Thus, even the smallest sound was enough to wake him up.
The second the door was pushed open, he sat up straight in his bed, prepared to fight to the death. But when he saw nothing but a black figure walking over, he became scared. He stepped away from the figure and then said to him, "No matter who you are... I didn't kill you!"
"What are you talking about?" Bai Meiyue rolled her eyes as she turned the switch on. She looked at the man who was staring at her as if he had seen a ghost and questioned, "Are you still dreaming?"
What kind of evil had he done that he found a boss who liked scaring him in the middle of the night? Why was she coming to his room in the middle of the night? And even if she was coming to see him, why did she have to act like a ghost?
Though Xiao Wu had a lot of complaints, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only flatteringly smile at Bai Meiyue and ask, "Boss, what are you doing here so late at night? You should have called me; I would have come to meet you right away."
"I did," said Bai Meiyue as she walked over and sat down on a chair. She rubbed her swollen belly and tried to calm down her heartbeat before saying to Xiao Wu, "How much do you know about the tiger base?"
"I know a lot about them." When Xiao Wu heard Bai Meiyue mention his enemies, all his sleepiness vanished. He immediately sat down and started telling Bai Meiyue about the tiger base.
Bai Meiyue listened carefully as Xiao Wu started telling about the tiger gang. Turned out that the gang was not a simple gang of thugs but it was actually an underworld gang!
