Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies-Chapter 231 : Dump him
Inside the car, Bai Meiyue was wondering whether she should dump Lei Qian and his team altogether. She wasn't one to get involved in unnecessary drama and given the attitude and obsession of Lu Yin, Bai Meiyue felt really tired.
Ever since she was reborn, she never planned to do great things or look for a man to rely on. She just wanted to live a quiet life with her son and deal with the scum who targeted her and her son in the last life. Her goals were different from those of Lu Yin and Dacheng.
People like them wanted to stick close to the high-ranking and powerful people. They would do anything to get what they wanted, even if it meant dirty manipulation. Bai Meiyue never liked such ambitious people in her last life and she could never like them now either.
Thats because people like Lu Yin and Dacheng had no bottom line. If they were willing to please someone today, they could betray that person tomorrow as long as they clung onto someone more powerful and influential. Such people wouldn't hesitate to pull the rag from under her feet if it meant that they could survive.
Bai Meiyue didn't wish to entangle with such treacherous schemers.
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, someone knocked on the glass of her window. Bai Meiyue ignored him because if it was her brothers, they would have entered without knocking; after all, they had the keys. However, even when she closed her eyes and was determined to ignore the man outside, it seemed like he was determined to disturb her if she didn't open the window.
Bai Meiyue squeezed her eyes and then opened them in frustration. Sitting up straight, she pulled the glass down and glared at the man. "What?" she snapped.
"You wound me, Yueyue," Lei Qian spoke with an aggrieved voice. "You just promised me that you would treat me better and now you have gone back to your old temper."
Bai Meiyue rolled her eyes and stated coldly, "Speak what you want or get lost if you don't." Was she the only one who broke the promise? Haha. She told Lei Qian that she didn't want to see Lu Yin in front of her eyes, and yet this man drank the water that she gave to him. Did he think that she didn't have eyes?
"Give me some water; I am parched." Lei Qian didn't show any anger, even though he was berated like a dog. Instead, he lowered his head and softened his tone when he realised that Bai Meiyue was not in a good mood.
"Didn't she give you enough water? You want more?" Bai Meiyue questioned with a raise of her brow.
"What water? I didn't even take the water bottle. You told me that you don't want me to get involved with Lu Yin so I made my stance clear to her."
"Then what about the water bottle?"
"Guo Fu took it."
The expression on Lei Qian's face was rather calm, as if he was relieved that the water bottle didn't fall in his hands. Lei Qian heaved a sigh of relief in his heart and then said to Bai Meiyue in a flattering voice, "Come on, give me some water, Yueyue."

Bai Meiyue stared at the man as if she was determined to see whether he was lying or not. But she didn't see any signs of lying; she blinked her eyes and then snapped her fingers. Clean water appeared in thin air before morphing into numerous ice cubes.
But as they floated close to Lei Qian, he realised that these cubes were not made of ice but water. Lei Qian pinched one cube and brought it to his lips, and the second the cube entered his mouth, the thin film around it broke.
Lei Qian swallowed the mouthful of sweet and fresh water, which tasted even better than the spring water that he had in his resort. Just as he was about to pick up another cube, someone reached out to snatch one.
Slap.
"Ouch!"
Mo He winced when Lei Qian slapped the back of his hand. He rubbed the skin that was stinging and looked at Lei Qian with silent complaints in his eyes.
"Boss Lei, you are too much," Mo He whined pitifully. "You have so much water; can't you share some?"
"No." Lei Qian refused at once before picking up another cube.
Mo He stared at the man speechlessly. He then turned to look at Bai Meiyue and said to her, "Sister Yue, can you please give me some water too? We don't have much water left."
Since the man was acting polite and pitiful, what could Bai Meiyue do? She gave him some water cube as well, which Mo He swallowed almost immediately.
Once he was done, he wiped his mouth with the back of his mouth and said, "This water is much better than the ones that Sister Lu is handing out."
"She is handing out water?"Bai Meiyue caught the key point and asked, "But didn't I already fill your water bottles?" Before leaving the building, Bai Meiyue had asked the team members to take a vat full of water to fill their drinkware. So how come the water that Lu Yin was handing was different from the water she gave to Mo He?
"Hmm," Mo He blinked his eyes and casually stated, "Well, Sister Lu said that she brought these water bottles from home just in case of emergency."
"Heh," Bai Meiyue sneered when she heard Mo He's reply.
Just in case of emergency? Hah! Did she really think that Bai Meiyue and the rest of the team was as simple and honest as Mo He? That woman didn't bring the water bottles with her because she wanted to be prepared for an emergency.
She brought them to suppress Bai Meiyue by showing off that her skills were nothing too great!
Bai Meiyue had to admit that Lu Yin's skills to disgust her were just as skilled as Bai Xue.
