Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 692

Chapter 692: Yan Wanning is hurt

Old Master Bai’s eyes flashed with a murderous glint when he thought about the good things that his so-called daughter had done. But she was his only daughter and his wife doted on her; that was why he allowed her to make trouble. But now that he knew that the woman was not his daughter, there were a lot of things that Old Master Bai thought were a bit weird.

Like how she would empty her bank account in just a few days and the heavy transactions. The rise of a few companies and the way she would blatantly support them. In the past, he thought that it was just out of her rebellious personality but now Old Master Bai was sure that his daughter knew something about her background and that was the reason why she supported those companies.

If not then why would she stop him from going to the Cloud City? Isn’t it because that city was closer to the village where Yan Wanning lived with her sons and his daughter was worried that he would run into Yan Wanning? The more he thought about these oddities, the more he realised how well he had been fooled.

Xiao Chenye understood what Old Master Bai was trying to say. "You mean to say that the young miss knew that she was the fake daughter of the Bai family?"

"What young miss? Is she even worth it?" After realising that he had been fooled, Old Master Bai no longer had a favourable impression of Bai Lingling. That woman was really playing them by their noses and they were acting like fools in the hands of that woman as well. "I will hand over my head on a silver platter if it turns out that she was unaware of her background. Don’t you remember how Bai Yi made a fuss and stopped me from going to Cloud City? Isn’t it because the two of them were scared that their secret would come out? Not only Bai Lingling knows the truth; her daughter knows it as well."

This was something that Old Master Bai was certain of. This was the reason why he didn’t tell Yan Wanning that she was his daughter; he first wanted to let this matter be known to Bai Wenxuan and then deal with the people behind the scenes. But now that the secret was out—sigh—he was worried that his life was going to become even more problematic in the future.

"What!?" When Fu Wan heard the words of the maid, she was shocked out of her mind. Yan Wanning—that old woman from the countryside was the daughter of Old Master Bai? Then doesn’t that make that woman her aunt-in-law and Bai Meiyue her cousin-in-law? The thought alone was enough to gag Fu Wan. She was thoroughly disgusted but she couldn’t do anything.

This was out of her hands. If she was in the capital, she could have contacted Bai Lingling and asked her to deal with Yan Wanning.

That’s right.

"Mom, you should at least eat something. I know that it feels really upsetting but there is no point in skipping lunch and breakfast for this matter," said Bai Meiyue as she looked at her mother, who was refusing to take a bite of her food. It wasn’t that she was not understanding the situation of her mother but why hurt herself? It had been six hours and Yan Wanning had refused to say a word to her; she even turned Old Master Bai away when he came to see her and told everyone to leave her alone.

It was only when Bai Meiyue had enough that she asked her brother to break open the door that they were able to get to their mother.

"Yueyue, you do not understand." Yan Wanning finally broke her silence as she realised she had caused trouble for her children. She sniffed and wiped the snot hanging on the tip of her nose. She said to her daughter, "I am not upset that Old Master Bai hid the truth from me. There is nothing wrong with that; after all, it must have been shocking for him too.... I just—I can’t help but wonder, what should I do? What did I do wrong? I obviously treated that family really well, so why did they treat me like this? What did I do to deserve this?"

Yan Wanning felt as if she had been hit hard on the head. Clearly, she had done nothing wrong and yet she was treated so unjustly.
