He looked at Bai Meiyue, but when he noticed the customers looking at him, he said to her, "You are spouting nonsense, when did we do such a thing? You better watch your words or else we will sue you!"
"Go ahead," Bai Meiyue sneered as she looked at the man in front of her. She wished she could use the butter knife to stab him in the heart, it didn't matter if the knife was not sharp enough. As long as enough force was used, it would definitely embed in his skin.
She curled her lips and remarked, "Do you think that I am saying these things because I have no evidence?"
Her words drained the rest of the blood from Jiang Ziming's face.
Bai Meiyue however didn't care about it, she picked up her clutch and walked past the table but before leaving the cafe, she paused and turned to look at Jiang Ziming, "And oh, don't even think of silencing me. If you do such a thing then you will never know what I might do."
After throwing these words, she pulled open the door of the cafe and stepped outside.
As soon as the clear and warm sun rays fell on her, Bai Meiyue inhaled deeply. She had to admit that she missed this warm sunlight and clean air. Once doomsday arrives, there will no longer be a day as peaceful as this one.
The first thing Bai Meiyue did after stepping out of the cafe was to head back home. Once she was back in her small apartment, she hurriedly checked the time and date on her phone.
August 6, 20XX. Two months away from the day when the doomsday broke out.
Bai Meiyue pinched her cheeks and arms multiple times to make sure that she was dreaming that it was not just a hallucination that she was having before dying.
But when nothing changed, a sense of relief rushed up in her heart as she covered her abdomen. She dropped to her knees on the carpeted floor and started crying.
She was really back!
This meant that her son, Bai Cai, must have returned as well with her. Thank goodness, thank goodness, this was not a dream. Her little Cai Cai was growing in her womb, and slowly he would be running around in her home, with his sweet giggles chiming.
The more she thought about it, the more Bai Meiyue sobbed while hugging her abdomen.
Thankfully, the heavens had eyes, and they didn't take away her son from her.
Bai Meiyue wanted to cry until she no longer could, but when she was reminded of how her little Cai Cai had cried the second he was born and grew up to be a crybaby, she stopped crying.
Maybe it was because of her emotional influence and personality that her son grew up to be a crybaby and a sensitive child — Bai Meiyue could not let her son be affected because of her anymore.
Once was enough!
After Bai Meiyue figured it out, she calmed down and adjusted her mental state. In those eleven years, what kind of thing had she not experienced? Even if she was hallucinating before her death, she was never going to wake up from this hallucination ever.
Bai Meiyue raised her hand and wiped her tears off her eyes and cheeks.
This was not the time to cry after all. She didn't have the time to shed tears anymore!
She got up from the floor and walked over to the couch, where she sat and tapped on her banking out. As soon as she checked her balance, a pitiful 345 yuan was displayed on the screen.
"Tsk, those leeches," Bai Meiyue clicked her tongue in annoyance when she saw the meagre sum in her account. With this much money, she could not even think of stocking up supplies in her house, much less getting prepared for the doomsday.
In the past, her father and his mistress and Bai Xue had an easy time because of her hard earned money. But there was no way, Bai Meiyue was going to let them have it easy this time around.
They had to go through everything that she had when she was left to fend for herself!
A ruthless look flashed in Bai Meiyue's eyes and she started to make small calculations in her heart.
However, after thinking for a while she paused and frowned. She had no evidence collected at the moment to prove that her father and his mistress had schemed against her. And without evidence, she would not be able to sue that man and receive the money that he had made by sucking her blood.
Her hacking skills were also basic because, in the doomsday world, there was no need to learn such things. What was important was how quickly one could shoot, stab and awaken as a supernatural being.
However, these things couldn't help her for the time being. The doomsday was still away and it was illegal to kill anyone right now. If Bai Meiyue made a move then she would end up in prison which was not on her plan because she wanted to stock a lot of supplies!
Without stocking resources she would find herself back in the same position as before.
So what to do now?
Should she hire a hacker?
While Bai Meiyue was worrying about what should be her next step because she was truly unwilling to give Bai Qingshi and his mistress a leeway, she heard a ding go off in her head.
[Welcome to the Barter Group.]
A mechanical voice echoed in her mind, and Bai Meiyue, who was thinking, suddenly stopped.
Barter what?
What was this sound?
She frowned and shook her head, thinking that she might have misheard a hawker selling his goods out on the street.
However, just then a blue stripe appeared in front of her eyes before unfolding and becoming a square floating screen.
[The host has been bound to the Barter Group.]
[The system is activated.]
Bai Meiyue's eyes widened more and more, as she looked at the screen in front of her. Her mouth fell agape as all sorts of announcements started to appear on the screen.
[Cute Bing Bing on Beasts Plane: Does anyone want to exchange a flame thrower flower for some medicine for fever? My son is sick.]
[Sturdy Mechanic from B-78 plane: Will anyone exchange some fruits with me? I have a few things that I wish to exchange.]
[Ruthless swordsman on Immortal Plane: Stop exchanging for a second and at least greet the newcomer.]
[Cute Bing Bing on Beasts Plane: Hello, hello. Now can someone exchange a fever medicine with me?]
[Beautiful witch from the Western Plane: I will do it. I just needed some flamethrower flowers for my potion.]
As soon as the woman finished typing, the two messages disappeared, and in place of them, another notification appeared.
[Barter Proceeding.]
[Barter succeeded.]
[Thank you for your patronage.]
