Bai Meiyue was speechless with the antics of the two siblings. She sighed and turned to look at Lei Yan before saying to her, "I have a few fresh fish in stock; you can use them later on. For now, can you please help me? Or else my mother will end up dehydrated." She pointed to Mother Bai, who was beyond distressed. Even with Director Feng, Old Master Bai and Bai Zhan taking turns to calm down, they couldn’t do anything.
Though Mother Bai was not a miser, she was indeed quite careful when she was using the supplies that Bai Meiyue and the rest had collected. To make things worse, Mother Bai was also a bit insecure about not being able to go out and hunt for supplies. There was no surprise that she was even more profoundly guilty over the loss of this pot of rice.
Lei Yan nodded. She turned to look at her brother before saying to him, "I am only doing this for Sister Yueyue and not you, blegh."
She poked her tongue at her brother before turning around. Lei Qian was speechless when he saw the actions of his sister. What was the meaning of this?
Though he wanted to stop Lei Yan and question her about what she meant by her words, he stopped when he saw Lei Yan concentrate. He pursed his lips and fell back before muttering under his breath, "You are acting like your brother never does anything for you."
He sounded like a sullen child, and Bai Meiyue simply shot him a look. She wondered where she had gone wrong. Or did her rebirth make some changes? Was he the same man who was feared by all the officials of the bases all over the world? Because this man certainly didn’t give her the feeling of a ruthless tyrant.
What Bai Meiyue didn’t know was that without her by his side, Lei Qian was indeed not as sunny and charming as he was at the moment. With the lies and schemes thrown at him under her name, he had long gone through various changes which changed his entire personality.
However, with Bai Meiyue by his side, he didn’t go through the earth-shattering changes.
Lei Yan used her skills and lightened the weight of the rice grains that were mixed with the chicken poop, and Lei Qian quickly cleaned it all up. He then placed the pot right under the floating rice. Lei Yan waited until her brother was done and then dropped the rice in the pot without wasting another second.
"It’s done." Lei Yan heaved a sigh of relief. Even though she was quite a skilled ability user thanks to her brother, who gave her all the pointers that he received from Bai Meiyue, she was still young and couldn’t control her powers as well as the adults. This was the first time she had applied the gravitational force on something so small.
