What Bai Feng didn't know was that Bai Xue had always been like this —she was never the kind and sweet little girl that she pretended to be. In the past, Bai Xue didn't have to worry about anything; thus, it was easy for her to wear the mask that she had been carrying on her face for so long.
But the current situation was no longer the sa. Bai Xue knew that if she didn't plan for her future, things might not go according to her wishes. Thus, she was willing to do anything to get what she wanted, even if it ant that she had to cross all limits.
There was also her sudden change in attitude. In the past, Bai Xue was proud as a peacock; she would never look at a man and please him unless he was related to Bai iyue. But now, whether it was a man or a woman, she would do absolutely anything to please them, which made Bai Feng really unsettled. Now even if she had to kneel or beg the person in front of her, Bai Xue would willingly do that.
Did he not understand her calculations? At first he didn't but after Bai iyue pointed it out, he seed to have understood what was going on. Bai Xue indeed wanted Bai iyue to co back but she wanted her back at the cost of bringing the man by Bai iyue's side close to her.
In order to snatch a man, Bai Xue didn't even think twice to use her own brother. Was it really for Bai iyue? Or was Bai Xue thinking of ways to manipulate the situation and beco the last winner?
Though Bai Xue had an answer, he didn't want to delve any further into it. It was, however, impossible for him to go against Bai iyue and help Bai Xue pull Lei Qian to her side. Bai iyue was also his sister and he wanted her to live a good life. Given that the man could withstand one of his strongest attacks, it showed that he was skilled.
As long as he was with Bai iyue, then Bai Feng didn't have to worry about Bai iyue's safety.
Bai Xue might say that Bai iyue was being manipulated by Lei Qian but from what he saw, Bai iyue was not only clearheaded; her attitude towards Lei Qian was at best like an acquaintance.
If anything, it was Lei Qian who seed to be taken by Bai iyue. Just now, when he instinctively hurt Bai iyue, Lei Qian rushed to protect her at once. This alone was enough to make Bai Feng give up on his murderous thoughts.
Bai Feng would never touch Lei Qian now that he knew his attitude towards Bai iyue. Unless that man does anything that might hurt Bai iyue, Bai Feng would never touch him. At least with Lei Qian by her side, even if Bai iyue was to offend soone, they would think twice before retaliating.
Bai Feng knew Lei Qian and understood how deep the mind of that man was before the end of the world. With him by her side, no one would ever be able to hurt Bai iyue.
"Brother Feng!"
However, Bai Feng didn't stop. At that mont, his deep black eyes were as gloomy as a quagmire. He strode past Bai Xue, leaving the latter behind in the corridor.
Bai Xue didn't chase after him; she stayed stubbornly where she was, thinking that Bai Feng would turn around and listen to her, but that man never looked back. Seeing him walk away, Bai Xue's expression turned sombre. At the sa ti, her heart couldn't help but turn cold.
Why? Why was she the only one who did not turn into an ability user? Everyone around her was awakening one by one and only she and her family were the ones who couldn't awaken. Forget about awakening as a powerful ability user; they didn't even show any signs of awakening.
There was no stir at all.
Why? Why though!? Even soone as useless as Bai iyue could awaken as a powerful ability user, then why couldn't she?
Bai Xue was filled with resentnt. She had no idea that the woman she had looked down upon all her life was the cause behind her not being able to awaken. Bai Xue stood on the spit filled with resentnt and rage. Since Bai Feng refused to help her, she would think of so other way to make that man follow her.
As she thought of ways to bring Lei Qian by her side, she raised her head and looked at her reflection in the glass of the broken window. Though she and Bai iyue looked considerably different, they still had so similarities, like their eyes and side profiles.
She resembled Bai iyue from the right a little.
"If…" If Bai iyue died, then wouldn't it an that she would have a chance to win over Lei Qian? The more Bai Xue thought about it, the more excited she beca.
No matter what, she would think of a way to make Lei Qian support her instead of Bai iyue. Because that woman didn't deserve it!
The night was bound to pass restlessly for so. However, Bai iyue not only ate and drank well, she slept quite peacefully. When she woke up and looked out of the window, she saw thin, gray and black snow covering the road. Though the snow outside was really thin, the temperature had gone down even more.
Bai iyue yawned. She got to the bathing room and took a shower before dressing up and stepping out of the room. She planned on making a trip to the southern district and collecting so supplies to exchange. At the sa ti, she also needed to bring Shen Zhen along with her and help that woman collect so nappies and milk powder.
"Work, work... So much work," she muttered. She thought that after the apocalypse, she would finally be able to live a comfortable life, but it seed like she was still far from it!
