Bai Xue snorted. Even though Su Hu closed the door in her face, she was not bothered by his actions at all. She had long heard that someone was deliberately making things difficult for Su Hu, and Bai Xue supported it one hundred and ten per cent. A man like Su Hu, who relied on others and still betrayed them, deserved such harassment.
She raised her foot and kicked the door of Su Hu’s apartment before walking away. Once she arrived home, she was immediately pulled inside the house by Chu Xia. The woman raised her hand and smacked Bai Xue on the back with just the right amount of pressure and said to her angrily, "Just what do you think you are doing, huh? Do you think that I don’t have enough troubles that you are messing around? Why did you go outside when the warning clearly stated that we needed to stay inside the apartment?"
Bai Xue rubbed the spot that her mother had hit and said in an angry voice, "I didn’t want to go out either, but I heard some ruckus and wanted to check it out. It seems like that bitch Bai Meiyue left the base with Master Lei and the rest of her team."
Bai Xue truly hated the fact that Bai Meiyue had once escaped. She should have died under the waves of the mutated bugs that were targeting her, but Bai Meiyue was luckier than she had expected. Even with that pregnant belly, Bai Meiyue was able to stand against those mutated bugs, and here she thought that once Bai Meiyue was gone, she would be able to round up all the ability users who were following her.
She even started dreaming of how she would slowly win over Lei Qian’s affections. Anyway, she and Bai Meiyue looked quite alike because they shared the same father. Bai Xue was certain that once Bai Meiyue cleared off the path, she would be able to replace her in no time. Compared to Bai Meiyue, she was much more docile and cute; men liked her kind of woman more than someone like Bai Meiyue, who was always cold and acted as if she were better than others.
However, imagination was beautiful and reality was harsh. Even though she planned on taking Bai Meiyue’s place, that woman needed to first die. Only then would she be able to replace her. Without Bai Meiyue going to the underworld to accompany the King of Hell, how was she going to replace her?
While Bai Xue was lost in her thoughts, Chu Xia glanced at Bai Qingshi, and the two of them heaved a sigh of relief. With Bai Meiyue leaving the base, Mother Bai would never find out the truth about Bai Feng.
The two of them had no idea that they had relaxed way too soon!
On the other side, at one of the mansions where the Bai family was living with the rest of the team, Old Master Bai hummed a soft tune as he walked past the workers who were working their hardest. Even Director Feng was working with them. He could be seen carrying all kinds of heavy stuff around the mansion without complaining.
Of course, Old Master Bai didn’t think that Bai Meiyue and the rest were making Director Feng work too hard. He knew that the world was no longer the same. If they didn’t work hard, then they could forget about eating and drinking in peace. Only by working hard could they make a living.
As a soldier himself, Old Master Bai never thought about taking advantage of anyone. This was the only reason why he was doing whatever he could do at the moment.
