Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!-Chapter 48: Once Saw Her Before

"...Compensated." Zhao Mimi’s face was slightly stiff.

"Then we’re even."

Leng Yebai nodded satisfactorily, then stood beside Bai Xiqin, looking as if he wasn’t planning to speak.

He was just afraid someone wouldn’t repay their debt, after all, the money was meant to buy supplies for Xiao Niu.

If someone owed money and didn’t repay it, even in the apocalypse, even if it meant losing dignity, he would get that money back!

He couldn’t let Xiao Niu suffer losses for the sake of his own dignity!

At this moment, Zhao Mimi finally looked at Bai Xiqin.

"Are you...President Leng’s girlfriend?"

A flash of viciousness flickered in Zhao Mimi’s eyes, quickly concealed.

"Hmm." Bai Xiqin nodded slightly, "Hello, I’m Bai Xiqin. What’s your name?"

Leng Yebai’s body slightly tensed, watching Bai Xiqin unblinkingly, his eyes full of joy.

This was the first time he heard her admit he was her boyfriend.

Just a simple "hmm," but it reached his heart!

Leng Yebai’s heart pounded fiercely, the corners of his mouth lifting wildly.

"I’m Zhao Mimi." Zhao Mimi forced a smile.

"Hey, are you done chatting? If so, hurry up and leave!"

The sleazy man glanced impatiently at Leng Yebai and Bai Xiqin.

Leng Yebai looked like someone not to be messed with.

With women, having one is enough.

"I’ll go with you guys."

Zhao Mimi’s face turned slightly pale, stepping forward to follow Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.

Staying here was a nightmare.

You never knew when you’d be devoured.

Thinking about the things she had eaten in the past ten days, Zhao Mimi’s face was gloomy.

If she had known, she wouldn’t have returned to Z City after being kicked out of Wangyang Company, and she wouldn’t be in such a dire state now!

"You want to take her with you?"

The sleazy man conjured a wisp of flame in his palm, his face slightly menacing.

He acted arrogantly in the warehouse because he had awakened a Fire Ability.

"...President Leng."

Zhao Mimi looked at Leng Yebai with a pleading expression.

Unfortunately, Leng Yebai was immersed in the moment Bai Xiqin acknowledged him as her boyfriend.

He had no time to pay attention to Zhao Mimi.

Someone was joyfully watching his own Xiao Niu, heart leaping with joy.

"Hey, I’m talking to you!"

Seeing Leng Yebai unresponsive, the sleazy man thought he might just be big and strong on the outside, perhaps not as powerful as himself!

So, he became a bit smug.

Leng Yebai still ignored the sleazy man.

Those keen eyes softened, watching Bai Xiqin unblinkingly as if she were his whole world.

Xiao Niu acknowledged him.

Moved...

The sleazy man squinted slightly, throwing a scorching flame towards Leng Yebai.

Bai Xiqin’s mouth twitched, nudging Leng Yebai.

Watch out, the flame’s about to reach your hair.

Leng Yebai smiled at Bai Xiqin, his eyes full of joy. His fingers slightly lifted, and a purple electric spark shot towards the flame, which instantly dissipated.

"President Leng!"

Zhao Mimi’s eyes lit up, finally getting a chance to leave this sleazy man.

President Leng was so powerful, following him would surely be the safest choice.

"Let’s go!"

Bai Xiqin glanced at the sleazy man and Zhao Mimi, turning to leave.

She just wanted to greet an old friend.

Seeing her living so pitifully, she felt relieved.

Leng Yebai quietly extended a finger to hook Bai Xiqin’s finger.

Bai Xiqin didn’t refuse, and Leng Yebai’s mouth curled up into a wild grin.

"President Leng, I’m coming with you guys!"

Zhao Mimi said without hesitation, directly following behind Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.

The sleazy man’s pupils contracted; Leng Yebai’s powerful Thunder Ability made him not dare to follow.

Greedily glancing over Zhao Mimi’s impressive figure, the sleazy man looked regretful.

Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai left Zhao Mimi unnoticed, the two walking hand-in-hand, oblivious to others.

The supplies from the first and second floor warehouses were already put away in storage space, the third-floor supplies didn’t matter.

Zhao Mimi, face clouded, watched the two holding hands, silently following behind.

"Ah!"

As soon as she stepped out of the supermarket, Zhao Mimi saw stacks of zombies and couldn’t help but exclaim.

Since the apocalypse, she had been trapped in a small warehouse.

Terrified, she never left the warehouse, enduring inhuman torture even inside, not daring to step out.

This was the first time she had seen so many zombies.

"Who is that?"

Bai Anhai frowned, glancing at Zhao Mimi.

Chattering away, so annoying!

"Don’t know her."

Bai Xiqin shrugged.

"I don’t either."

Leng Yebai imitated Bai Xiqin, shrugging his shoulders as well.

Zhao Mimi’s face was slightly stiff, standing behind Bai Xiqin, not daring to speak.

Even though she had seen scenes of people being dismembered, she still had some aversion to the sight of zombies all over the place.

It was too eerie.

"Okay, let’s go then!"

Bai Anhai calmly carried a sack of Crystal Cores with Bai Yifan into the bus.

Wang Yiyun and Liu Jing dug out the last Crystal Core and also boarded the bus.

Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai boarded the bus with interlocked fingers.

Zhao Mimi gritted her teeth, quickening her pace to catch up with Bai Xiqin, planning to seize the opportunity to board the bus as well.

Once she was on, they surely wouldn’t kick her out, right?

But just as she lifted her foot, suddenly her whole body stiffened, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t control her body.

Just like that, Zhao Mimi watched the bus disappear into the distance.

The street was filled with bloody zombies, their brains split open, giving off a sinister feeling.

Boom—

A barrel of oil and a ball of flame suddenly flew from the bus, causing the zombies’ bodies to crackle and burn instantly.

Zhao Mimi’s eyes widened in horror, unexpectedly regaining control of her body, and she fell to the ground.

"Roar—"

The sound of zombies roaring came from afar.

Zhao Mimi instinctively shrank her neck, ready to run.

"Heh heh, little Mimi, where do you think you’re going?"

Seeing the bus had left, the sleazy man stepped out of the supermarket, grabbing Zhao Mimi, who was trying to flee.

On the bus—

"Sis, who was that woman just now? She didn’t seem like a good person," Bai Yifan said, driving while keeping his mouth busy.

"Yeah, I saw her in my dream." Bai Xiqin nodded slightly.

Leng Yebai’s eyes flickered; Xiao Niu’s dream was something she had truly experienced.

Bai Xiqin’s expression was a little odd earlier.

"Did she hurt you?" Leng Yebai squinted, radiating a hint of malevolence.

The scenes from the dream were vivid, and he could never forgive anyone who hurt Xiao Niu.

"In the dream, she tricked me into the research facility, where I couldn’t survive and ended up self-destructing." Bai Xiqin said calmly.

Bai Xiqin spoke calmly, but Leng Yebai’s heart nearly jumped out.

"Stop the car!"

Leng Yebai, with a grim face gripping a dagger, stood ready to get off.

The person who hurt Xiao Niu should just be eliminated!

"Sit down!" Bai Xiqin dragged Leng Yebai back to his seat, "We need her to find the research facility!"

"What research facility?" Bai Anhai was slightly puzzled.

Bai Xiqin had only mentioned the family massacre, not the research facility.
