Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies-Chapter 303: How can this happen?
However, before going out to collect the antiques and the other supplies, Bai Meiyue wanted to go downstairs and bring a few packages that she had not taken upstairs with her yesterday. Since she couldn't bring everything in her space pocket as it would cause others to look at her with suspicion—thus, she left a few packages downstairs.
Just as she stepped out down the stairs, she ran into Zhou Hongbei and Shen Zhen. The two of them were running out of the penthouse but stopped when Shen Zhen paused and turned to look at Bai Meiyue. She arched a brow and asked, "Where do you think you are going?"
She was worried that Bai Meiyue would run out of the penthouse without her, and her doctor in charge, Shen Zhen, couldn't help but feel worried. Among all the patients that she had taken under care, Bai Meiyue was the only one who made her this worried.
She knew that Bai Meiyue was a rather impulsive woman. She might sneak out of the penthouse when she was not paying attention. Look at this; wasn't she right to think so?
When Bai Meiyue saw the suspicious look in Shen Zhen's eyes, she was so amused that she couldn't help but chuckle. Bai Meiyue said to Shen Zhen, "There is no need to look at me like that; I assure you that I had no intention of running out of the house alone."
"Then where are you going?" Shen Zhen asked with a frown.
"I was heading down to the garage," replied Bai Meiyue with a calm voice. She then said to Shen Zhen, "Because we ended up getting entangled in trouble as soon as we returned, I forgot that there were a few more items that I needed to bring back with me. What about you two?"
Zhou Hongbei smiled at her and replied, "It's the same for us. Last night we were too tired and only brought the necessary things. The rest of the things were left in the SUV. We are going there to bring them with us."
The three of them stepped out of the penthouse and headed downstairs. Though the apartment building was still the same, it had long separated into two factions. One side belonged to Bai Meiyue and Lei Qian, while the other one belonged to the Bai family and Bai Xue.
Thus, Bai Meiyue was not even surprised when she saw someone standing near her SUV, trying to take a peek inside.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Bai Meiyue called out to the man who was trying to pry open the door of the SUV. Her eyes flashed with annoyance when she saw that someone from Bai Xue's side was actually trying to break into her car.
It seemed like she needed to ask Yang Chunhua to build a mud wall to separate the two halves of the parking lot as well.
When the man heard her voice, he froze and turned around to run away.
Bai Meiyue didn't chase after the man, as she didn't want to cause trouble first thing in the morning.

Zhou Hongbei on the other hand frowned and said, "These people have turned more and more lawless. They have resorted to stealing."
Bai Meiyue pursed her lips and didn't say anything. Zhou Hongbei had no idea that stealing was the least of the worst things that others could do—compared to killing others, stealing was still better than the rest.
"Let's grab what we came for," Shen Zhen frowned. She really didn't want to stay downstairs alone. The three of them were alone and the two of them were not ability users. If that man came back to cause trouble, then they would become a burden on Bai Meiyue who was a pregnant woman.
Bai Meiyue and Zhou Hongbei agreed.
As Zhou Hongbei had brought a trolley with him, Bai Meiyue and Shen Zhen only needed to fill it up while Zhou Hongbei was responsible for carrying it all upstairs. While Zhou Hongbei was working hard, Bai Meiyue was looking around in the garage.
She noticed that small bushes that were planted outside the parking lot had started to show signs of mutations. She noticed the bushes fluttering as if something was moving inside them but Bai Meiyue knew that there was nothing inside the bushes.
She watched as an overly large mosquito came fluttering and sat down on one of the bushes. The wings of the mosquito gently touched the leaf of the bush, which elongated and covered the mosquito completely and soon the leaves created a mummy out of the insect and when they retracted, the mosquito was gone.
Bai Meiyue was not even surprised as she knew that after the animals, it was the plants and the vegetation around the city that would slowly start to change.
In her past life, the plants started to mutate around this time as well. Not only did they become resistant to hot and cold weather, they also developed many defensive abilities.
Bai Meiyue stepped closer to the bush. She crouched down and picked up a stone from the pavement, which she threw down in the bush. Just like before, the leaves stretched out and wrapped themselves around the small pebble. She had no idea what kind of defensive ability this small plant had, but the second the leaves unwrapped themselves, the pebble that Bai Meiyue threw down within the bush disappeared.
Seeing this, Bai Meiyue's eyes lit up. Though she had various means to teach Bai Xue, who kept hopping around her, a lesson, Bai Meiyue thought that there was a need for an element of surprise. That woman seemed to have gotten smarter and no longer approached her electric gate.
Thus, Bai Meiyue could not get the sadistic pleasure of making that woman suffer.
Thinking about the fun that she could have with Bai Xue if she were to bring this bush and put it in a pot, Bai Meiyue's lips curled up, and she turned to look at Zhou Hongbei to bring back the bush to the apartment.
"How can this happen?"
