Surviving the Apocalypse with Five Children [MTL]

Chapter 51-70

Chapter 51: The Pitiable Bai Father

Yun Jiao opened the door and saw what Pei Xi was carrying.

"Thank you!" Yun Jiao took the fruits and felt touched.

"Well then, Aunt Yun, I'll be on my way," Pei Xi greeted and left.

"Mhmm!"

...

"Smack!"

The sound of a slap echoed in the quiet room, unmistakably sharp.

A coarse, male voice rang out.

"You damn useless woman, hurry up and find something for me to eat. Do you want me to starve to death?" Bai Xiong berated Bai Mu angrily.

His words were as harsh as they come.

Bai Mu was slapped to the ground, a swollen welt rising on her right cheek.

Tears streamed down her face as she looked up at Bai Xiong in fear.

"Th-there are... monsters outside... I-I dare not go," she stammered.

Hearing Bai Mu mentioning monsters outside infuriated Bai Xiong.

After more than a decade in prison, Bai Xiong was finally out.

Years ago, due to his drunkenness, he accidentally killed a couple. He survived, but not unscathed. The head injury he sustained wasn't severe, but it cost him almost all his money, as he paid a hefty sum to the couple's daughter. What remained of his wealth didn't last long, and he eventually ended up in prison for over a decade.

Once portly with a beer belly, he now resembled a completely different person after his release. He had lost weight and his beer belly vanished. He had slanted eyes and a flat nose, his appearance unappealing, an eyesore.

However, Bai Xiong's misfortune continued. Shortly after his release from prison, the apocalypse struck.

Bai Mu, with her refined appearance and large eyes, resembled Bai Xiong's wife, Bai Xiao Lian, in her younger days.

Later, Bai Mu realized Bai Xiong had some money, so she resorted to deceit to get pregnant with Bai Xiao Lian. Now, Bai Xiao Lian was just as greedy and unscrupulous as Bai Mu had been in her youth.

"I tell you to go, you better go," Bai Xiong grabbed Bai Mu's collar in anger, frightening her to the core.

Bai Xiong didn't pay Bai Mu any more attention. He seized her collar and threw her out, showing her no mercy.

"Thud..."

The door slammed shut, leaving Bai Mu outside.

Her eyes filled with sinister hatred, Bai Mu's body bore numerous wounds, both big and small, inflicted by Bai Xiong. He was excessively brutal, not holding back.

Ever since he returned, Bai Mu hadn't had a single good day. She endured daily abuse from Bai Xiong.

The scent of blood on Bai Mu attracted many zombies.
