Chapter 22: Chapter 22: A Son Isn’t as Good as Braised Pork Hock

One month later.

The family arrived at the warehouse Bai Anhai rented, and everyone stood in the revamped bus, dumbfounded.

The bus had two levels, with the top transformed into sleeping quarters, divided into four small areas, each with a soft mattress and blankets.

The only drawback was that you had to move around bent over; the ceiling was too low.

The bottom level housed the living room, kitchen, and storage cabinets, split into two sections: one was a freezer, the other for room temperature storage.

Additionally, a bathroom was specially designed downstairs.

The luggage space at the bottom of the bus was converted into a water tank, so there’s no worry about running out of water while showering.

The original fuel engine was also modified to run on electricity.

In the apocalypse, anywhere with a Thunder Ability User has no shortage of electricity.

When a Thunder Ability User can expertly control the electricity, they can completely act as a battery.

”Dad, why hasn’t the exterior changed?”

Bai Yifan glanced at the bus exterior and slightly curled his lips.

The bus exterior looked exactly like an ordinary bus, with white and blue colors everywhere.

”Do you know what low-key means?”

Bai Anhai rolled his eyes at Bai Yifan.

”No need to be low-key, I’ve awakened my Gold Ability!”

Bai Yifan was a bit smug.

After being envious of everyone having superpowers for a week, Bai Yifan also acquired his Gold Ability.

”This must have cost a fortune, right?” Bai Zhengxuan chuckled, looking at the bus, ”When did our family become so rich?”

Just storing supplies cost a lot, and all these modifications to the bus also required a significant amount of money.

”Let’s put it this way!” Bai Anhai said calmly, ”In two months, either the apocalypse breaks out, or I go to jail and eat the government’s food for free.”

Everyone: ...

”Do you know why I work so hard?”

Bai Anhai asked calmly.

”Why?” Bai Yifan replied.

”Afraid no one would care for me when I’m old!”

Bai Anhai rolled his eyes.

A son worse than a BBQ bun!

Especially with such an unreliable son, Bai Anhai always worried about his future.

Bai Yifan: ...

”Xiao Hai! Now you understand why I teach my students carefully, right?”

Bai Zhengxuan glanced at Bai Anhai.

A son worse than soy-braised elbow!

Bai Anhai: ...

After the family’s happy chat, Bai Xiqin stored the bus into the space.

The warehouse was filled with specially made jackets and down jackets, summer and autumn clothes also stocked in the size of the family members.

Bai Xiqin waved her hand and stored them all into the space.

At this point, the Bai Family had almost spent all their savings, and all the necessary supplies had been stored in the space.

There were less than two months until the apocalypse outbreak.

The remaining task was to improve physical fitness and expand survival knowledge for the apocalypse.

After storing the supplies, the family sat down in rows, listening attentively to Bai Xiqin explaining the precautions for the apocalypse.

There’s only one core principle: don’t act like a saint. Save those you can, don’t try if you’re unsure, and be cautious when trusting strangers.

Bai Xiqin had suffered loss in this aspect, so she emphasized not trusting others.

”Don’t worry, I’ve finished reading all apocalypse novels, we just need to trust our own family!” Bai Zhengxuan said.

”Can I make a small request?”

Bai Yifan asked meekly.

”What request?” Bai Xiqin looked at Bai Yifan.

”Dad, can you stop eating garlic?”

Bai Yifan looked at Bai Anhai wistfully.

In case disaster strikes, he wouldn’t want to smell garlic even at death!

”Nope!”

Bai Anhai shrugged.

”... I have another question!” Bai Yifan raised his hand again.

”Speak!”

Bai Xiqin’s mouth twitched, feeling her little brother might court disaster.

”If Dad becomes a zombie, does it count as patricide?” Bai Yifan’s face showed a hint of conflict.

If Dad eats garlic, he doesn’t want to die under his garlic-flavored teeth.

”...No.” Bai Xiqin glanced at a dark-faced Bai Anhai, ”Zombies have no self-awareness, only bloodthirsty instincts, they can’t be considered human anymore.”

”...That’s a relief.”

Bai Yifan touched his nose.

”If my son turns into a zombie, it’s not filicide, right?” Bai Anhai looked at Bai Yifan sinisterly.

”...No.” Bai Xiqin’s mouth twitched slightly.

Bai Yifan: ...

After the family ”joyfully” finished discussing moral issues, they began devising plans to improve physical fitness and superpowers.

Every morning and night, they would run five kilometers to increase lung capacity.

Noon was dedicated to practicing superpowers in the space.

Afternoons were for learning combat skills, they hired a teacher specifically to train the family.

Bai Yifan and Bai Xiqin stopped going to school, while Bai Anhai and Wang Yiyun resigned from their jobs to focus on training.

Each day was packed full.

This morning, as Bai Xiqin prepared to go jogging with her family, she received a text message.

Leng Yebai: I’m waiting for you at your neighborhood entrance.

Bai Xiqin’s heart raced, she found an excuse and headed to her neighborhood entrance.

Upon arriving, she saw Leng Yebai in casual wear.

Usually, Leng Yebai was seen in suits, exuding a full abstinent vibe.

Now dressed in casual sportswear, he seemed like a sunny, handsome neighborhood brother.

”Bai Xiqin!”

Leng Yebai called Bai Xiqin’s name, a faint smile on his otherwise cool face.

”Why are you here?”

Bai Xiqin looked Leng Yebai up and down, her mouth slightly curved.

Good-looking people make anything look attractive!

”I’m taking you somewhere, let’s go!”

Leng Yebai’s mouth curved slightly, leading Bai Xiqin to a bicycle.

It was just an ordinary bike, valued at no more than three hundred yuan.

Leng Yebai mounted the bike, his long legs touching the ground, offering Bai Xiqin a gentle smile, ”Hop on!”

Blushing from his smile, Bai Xiqin stepped forward and sat on the rear seat.

”Hold tight!”

Leng Yebai’s rich voice echoed.

Bai Xiqin bashfully grabbed Leng Yebai’s shirt.

Leng Yebai’s mouth curved, and he rode off with Bai Xiqin.

”Are you broke?”

Bai Xiqin could tell the bike wasn’t new, possibly second-hand, occasionally emitting odd noises.

”Yes, penniless, homeless. Can you take me in?”

Leng Yebai’s voice rang.

”No.” Bai Xiqin refused firmly.

Cough, even if they might eventually..., it’s just too soon!

”But I have nowhere to go!” Leng Yebai’s voice sounded somewhat crestfallen.

”Aren’t you a president or something?” Bai Xiqin didn’t believe Leng Yebai was truly penniless.

”Sold the company, the house, the car too.” Leng Yebai said.

”Where’s the money?”

”Bought supplies!”

Bai Xiqin raised an eyebrow, so ruthless?

Less than five minutes later, Leng Yebai stopped.

”We’re here?” Bai Xiqin was stunned looking at the familiar place, ”Why ride a bike for such a short distance?”

Leng Yebai’s mouth curved slightly, not answering Bai Xiqin’s question.
