Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies-Chapter 373: No Need To Thank Us
The Liu siblings were stunned. They raised their heads and looked at the young woman who came to save them. The young woman looked younger than they did, but for some reason, she seemed way more powerful than their pitiful self. Liu Mei stared at the woman for a while before she threw herself into Bai Meiyue’s arms.
Bai Meiyue was taken aback when the woman threw herself into her arms, but she still supported her. Her gaze fell on the thin clothes that Liu Mei wore, along with the damage that Boss Yun had done to her clothes. Seeing that Liu Mei was almost naked, Bai Meiyue took off her jacket and handed it to her. At the same time, she turned to look at her brother and said, "Can you give me your jacket, brother?"
Bai Zhan was wearing two layers of sweaters under his jacket, so he would be fine if he didn’t wear his jacket, but Liu Che’s body was completely bare, and he was only allowed to wear a set of underpants. Bai Meiyue wondered how this man was able to stay alive till now.
"Sure," Bai Zhan understood why Bai Meiyue was asking him for his jacket and handed it to her.
Bai Meiyue took it and then put it on Liu Che before saying to him, "Cover yourself well; it is cold."
When Liu Che heard her warm and caring words, he didn’t know why, but he wanted to cry. And a second later, he did start to cry. Ever since his father passed away and he was captured, he had been humiliated and stepped on. No one cared about him and his sister. While he did try to save his sister from harm, it only led to him getting humiliated even more.
This was the first time someone was willing to take care of him. He couldn’t help but cry out loud. After all, he was just a nineteen-year-old boy, and after going through so much, he couldn’t help it anymore.
There were no guards outside, so it didn’t matter that the two siblings were crying. Even if they heard it, they would think that Boss Yun was the one bullying the two siblings and laugh at their plight.
When Wan Guofu saw how Bai Meiyue was comforting the two siblings, he suddenly felt even more troubled. He was certain that Bai Meiyue had some soft spots for these two siblings, and it was not a good thing. If Bai Meiyue continued to grow close to Liu Mei, it was alright, but if she were to start getting close to Liu Che, Wan Guofu could already see the entire building burning down.
It took some time for the two siblings to stop crying. Once they did, they were filled with embarrassment. They were actually crying in front of a young woman who was much younger than they were.
After she was done crying, Liu Mei peeked at Bai Meiyue worriedly. She saw her in such an embarrassing position; would she look down at her?
Liu Che had the same thoughts. The woman in front of him was too beautiful, and even though he didn’t have those sorts of feelings for her, he still didn’t like the idea of Bai Meiyue finding him in such an embarrassing position.
Bai Meiyue could sense that the two siblings were straying down the wrong lane. She sighed and patted Liu Mei on the back before saying, "Alright, get off me. Nothing happened, so there is no need to cry."
When Liu Mei and Liu Che heard her words, they heaved a sigh of relief. At least the woman didn’t look down at them.
Liu Che raised his head and, with a red face that was redder than monkey butt, looked at Bai Meiyue before saying to her, "Thank you. You are really our benefactor; if you hadn’t come to rescue us, I wonder what would have happened to the two of us."
Wan Guofu’s alarm bells started to ring even louder when he saw that the young man was blushing while speaking to Bai Meiyue. He wanted to step in but had no idea how to do it. What was he going to do? Was he really going to watch Bai Meiyue getting snatched by this young man?
When Bai Meiyue heard Liu Che’s words, she couldn’t help but smile. This man was still the same. Even though he didn’t speak much, he didn’t forget his manners.
Just like in the past, he was pure and innocent. Even more so now that he didn’t go through the torment that Boss Yun made his sister and him go through.
Bai Meiyue shook her head and then said to the two siblings, "Go ahead and get dressed. We will wait for you two outside."
When Liu Che heard her words, he couldn’t help but blush even more. Just now, he was busy looking at his saviour and completely forgot that he had been left almost naked for days. Thinking about how Bai Meiyue saw him in such a condition, his face couldn’t help but flush red in shame.
He hurriedly covered his body and peeked at Bai Meiyue, who never looked at him. Seeing her paying attention to his sister, Liu Che heaved a sigh, but at the same time, his heart couldn’t help but thump wildly.
He wasn’t the only one. Liu Mei also looked at Bai Meiyue with eyes that were filled with admiration and respect.
There were some traces of adoration, which made Wan Guofu break out in a cold sweat.
"Thank—thank you for saving us." Liu Mei covered her body with the clothes that were handed to her and looked at Bai Meiyue with a sweet smile. The faint scent that was lingering in the jacket smelled really nice. It also brought a sense of comfort to Liu Mei.
Bai Meiyue turned to look at the two siblings who were looking at her as if she had saved them from a burning building. She said to them, "Don’t thank me. We saved you because your mother made a deal with us." ƒreewebɳovel.com
