Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!-Chapter 364: Taowu’s Idol

Bai Yifan spent nearly twenty minutes washing his face.

It wasn’t that he wanted to imitate girls and wash slowly; it was just that the foundation on his face was so thick, and he had to take off the eyelashes and all.

It looked beautiful, sure, but it was like peeling a layer of skin off his face.

The Bai Family didn’t rush Bai Yifan; after all, they got to feast their eyes, so waiting a bit was fine.

Who would mind waiting for a pretty, cute girl?

After Bai Yifan finished washing his face, all the bus windows and doors were locked, and the family gathered around Bai Xiqin, placing their fingers on her shoulder.

In an instant, every single family member vanished.

As long as Bai Xiqin wished, she could hear the outside sounds from within the space, so there was no fear of outsiders approaching the bus and discovering her secret.

In the blink of an eye, they smelled the fresh, elegant scent in the space.

The fragrance of plants was completely opposite to the smell of zombie blood outside the bus, making them feel invigorated.

The Bai Family felt alive again.

"Master, you’re here!"

As soon as Bai Xiqin entered, the three fierce beasts, Taowu, Qinyuan, and the Water Python charged toward her.

Behind them followed two more beasts.

One was a massive mutated giant python, and the other was a little kitten Bai Yifan had picked up.

After staying in the space for a while, the kitten visibly grew fatter by the day.

It was no longer the frail little kitten of before.

Given time, it might become quite plump.

The little kitten remembered that Bai Yifan had saved it.

While other beasts charged at Bai Xiqin, it ran towards Bai Yifan instead.

Bai Xiqin reached out, patting each little beast.

"Master’s man, why do you look so ugly now? Last time you came in, you were super handsome, like me. Now... not so much!"

Taowu placed its head in Bai Xiqin’s hand, tilting its odd head and glancing at Leng Yebai.

Last time it saw Leng Yebai, his face had some rotting flesh and dark brown blood.

Now, Leng Yebai’s smooth face had no trace of rot, not even a hint of dark brown blood, not a scar in sight.

He really has... disfigured.

It was much better when his face had pieces of rotten flesh, like me!

Now he looks just like a pretty boy, which I really can’t appreciate.

Taowu still found Leng Yebai’s previous appearance more dashing.

Leng Yebai silently glanced at Taowu’s bizarre human-like face, his skin twitching almost imperceptibly.

"Was I really as... handsome as you?"

Leng Yebai gritted his teeth, barely managing to say the word "handsome" to Taowu.

"Of course! That face looked just like mine!" Taowu shook its head in regret, "But now..."

The rest was left unsaid, but Leng Yebai understood its meaning.

Leng Yebai touched his smooth face, feeling a bit thankful.

Luckily, he had turned back into a human; if he had to look like Taowu’s bizarre face every day...

Even if Xiao Niu doesn’t mind, he’d have to end it all himself.

"Master, what do you think?"

Seeing Leng Yebai say nothing, Taowu quickly looked at Bai Xiqin with a flattering gaze.

Hoping Bai Xiqin would praise it a little.

"I think you’re right!"

Bai Xiqin couldn’t bring herself to say Taowu was good-looking, so she just agreed with Taowu’s statement.

That was as much as she could compromise.

"Hehe, Master has great taste! I’m indeed quite handsome!"

Taowu almost blew bubbles from its nose, grinning foolishly.

The Water Python and Qinyuan exchanged a glance, then both shook their heads at the same time.

Their master really was a kind girl!

To be able to chat happily facing Taowu’s gruesome face, truly extraordinary!

"Cough, cough, let’s change the topic." Bai Xiqin lightly coughed, starting to shift the conversation, "What do you all do when I’m not here?"

She really couldn’t bear to keep discussing whether Taowu was handsome.

"Eat, sleep, wait for the master to come."

Qinyuan soared to Bai Xiqin’s shoulder, earnestly recounting its activities when its master wasn’t around. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Eat, sleep, sleep, wait for the master to come."

The Water Python also earnestly reported its status to Bai Xiqin.

"You’re all so bored?"

Bai Xiqin was shocked, realizing that they really had nothing to do in the space.

Before, they would wash a few clothes, but after washing two, they would throw them away, as there was no chance of wearing them again.

It was too wasteful.

Bai Xiqin stopped this project.

"Master, unlike them, my life isn’t boring; it’s very fulfilling!"

Taowu proudly raised its head.

"So what do you do?"

Hearing Taowu’s words, Bai Xiqin sighed a little in relief.

Really worried that the fierce beasts might get sick from stifling in the space.

Doing nothing day after day in the space, they might just get depression one day.

"My usual life is, well - eating, eating, eating, sleeping, sleeping, waiting for the master to come."

Taowu’s voice was full of intonation, not finding it boring at all, rather considering its life quite fulfilling.

Bai Xiqin: ...

Alright, now she knew that the beasts were very bored.

"Do you know who Lazy Lamb is?"

Bai Xiqin glanced at Leng Yebai, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"Who’s Lazy Lamb? Is it a new underling you’ve taken for us, Master?" Taowu blinked, "But we don’t want a sheep underling."

They just wanted roast lamb.

"You’ll find out soon enough."

Bai Xiqin mysteriously moved her fingers, and a television flew out of the warehouse.

The space was vast, and when the Bai Family stored supplies before the apocalypse, they considered what to do when bored.

Besides a heap of gaming consoles, they downloaded all the movies and shows they could.

They even downloaded Teletubbies.

After the apocalypse, the Bai Family often entered the space but never had time to enjoy shows; each time they came, they absorbed crystal cores in the space.

It was a bit faster to boost their superpowers inside than outside.

They couldn’t use the television themselves, but it amused the beasts like Taowu.

Anyway, with a Thunder Ability User at home, there was no worry of a power shortage.

They casually placed rechargeable batteries on the ground, Bai Xiqin taking out a USB full of downloaded shows, all sorts of anime.

There were many USBs with downloaded electronic documents, containing a wide array of things from shows to books, to 21st-century knowledge, even steelmaking.

’Don’t underestimate me; I’m just a little lamb...’

The television turned on, playing a cheerful tune.

The three little beasts, Water Python, Qinyuan, and Taowu, did not know much about human technology, and couldn’t quite comprehend cartoons.

However, their twinkling eyes told everyone that this was their jam!

"Master, who’s that?"

Taowu’s face almost pressed against the television screen, its eyes sparkling as it stared at the newcomer, Grey Wolf.

With just one look, it found a new idol.
