But then again, if Lei Qian built a base, he would have to follow the rules of his own base, because if he didn't follow the rules of his own base, then who would?

However, Bai Meiyue remembered the efficient way the man had set up the base and taken care of the people who lived in the base he created. Maybe Lei Qian was never built to follow but to lead?

When they returned home, Mother Bai was waiting for them. Upon finding out that all the supplies had been taken away by the base, she blew her top and started scolding Yu Miaomiao for being unscrupulous.

"I knew that there was something wrong with that woman. How could there be anyone willing to take in so many commoners and ability users for no reason? These people! They are really too much. To think that I thought that there was still humanity left in this world!"

As Mother Bai spoke, she threw down a bunch of eggs into the pot to boil. She looked at Bai Meiyue and asked her, "What are your plans?"

"We are going to move, obviously," said Bai Meiyue with a sigh. She was sitting on the couch and munching on the chips inside the large packet. "There is no way we can stay here any more. Just look at how strict the surveillance has become. If this went on, I am afraid that things would only become even more troublesome."

"Not to mention handing all of our supplies," Bai Jixuan was still upset about handing over his supplies. This was nothing but simple tyranny. Unless they wanted to keep half of their supplies, they needed to sign the document handed by the soldiers. He had taken a look at the document and knew that signing that document meant signing away their freedom.

Because Yu Miaomiao was a vengeful woman, the newly assigned and printed documents were even stricter and more dangerous than the last time. If they signed those documents, he was worried that he would never return home safely.

Bai Zhan, who was playing with his sons, raised his head and looked at his mother, who was frowning at them. He said to her, "Don't think too much, mother, there is nothing that we can do about it."

Mother Bai threw her ladle in the pot and planted her hands on the aisle before saying to her children, "It's not that I am against moving. It's just that I am worried. Though staying here is dangerous, staying outside is just as dangerous. Maybe even more dangerous. Are you sure that it's safe to go out?"

"It's better than staying here," said Bai Meiyue as she looked at her mother. She leaned back on the couch on which she was sitting and then said in a cold voice, "Yu Miaomiao will come after my son for sure."

Though Bai Meiyue knew that Yu Miaomiao would fall sooner or later, she still couldn't stay here anymore. There was no guarantee that after Yu Miaomiao's death, someone else wouldn't take advantage of the situation and take over this base.

"What?"

"Are you sure?"

When Mother Bai heard Bai Meiyue's words, she was stunned. When she thought about how that woman was actually targeting her grandson, she suddenly grew nervous. Even her two brothers turned to look at Bai Meiyue with a solemn expression.

"I am sure," Bai Meiyue nodded and explained to her mother, "This child might have been conceived before the end of the world, but in the end, he is the child of two powerful ability users. It would be a surprise if Yu Miaomiao let him be. Whether she wants to make him a powerful weapon or turn him into a research specimen, I don't know, but what I know is that she will never let my child go."

"The child is not even born, and she is already thinking of how to use it?!" Mother Bai was furious. As a mother herself, she could never understand how someone could harm a child? Yu Miaomiao was also a woman; how could she hurt a child?

Bai Meiyue knew what her mother was thinking; she sighed and then said to her mother, "Yu Miaomiao is different from us. She doesn't care about anything other than research and fame. I believe she wants to make a breakthrough in her research. How could she let go of such a good opportunity? My child could help her in many ways."

"No…no… We have to leave," said Mother Bai. All the worries that she had about the dangers outside left her mind the second she heard that her grandson was in danger. She said to Bai Meiyue, "We cannot let that woman take hold of my precious grandson."

Bai Meiyue nodded, looking at the faces of her mother and two brothers; she said to the three of them, "Though the environment outside is a bit risky and harsh, it's better than living here; we will have to worry about being cornered every day. With Yu Miaomiao in charge, she will definitely try to keep us here until I deliver this child. She is not a tyrant, but she is acting like one because she wishes that I and Lei Qian would run out of supplies and submit to her. This way, she would have an easier time kidnapping our child."

Originally, Bai Meiyue had no desire to set up a base for herself. But it seemed like this task could not be avoided anymore. It would be difficult to run a base in the long run, but it would be safer. It was better to take responsibility for countless lives rather than lose her son's life.

"Shameless! Really shameless!" Mother Bai cried as she hurled the rag on the floor, looking livid. Now that she understood what Yu Miaomiao was trying to do, she was furious. She turned to look at her two sons and said to them, "Start packing; we will move as soon as we can. I don't care if there are mutated animals and plants in that mansion. We are moving!"
