Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy!

Well, you can't blame him since this was simply too shocking!

"Sir, someone from the military called." The butler passed a satellite phone to Lin Weihao.

Lin Weihao stood up and took big strides towards the study to answer the call.

Feng Ran really wanted to follow and ask! Having to suppress a stomach full of curiosity was going to kill him! 

….

Lu Nanzhi and Lin Weihao didn't exactly part on bad terms. He was still sensible and didn't force the matter.

Realizing his mistake, Lin Weihao apologized, "I'm sorry, Miss Lin. It was my first time courting a woman."

Then he left the property documents and reinstated them as gifts, never bringing up the marriage again.

"They are at your disposal. If you lack funds, you call sell them. You can do whatever you want."

Lin Weihao left on his accord.

(A/N: I like the ML a bit faulty. Don't worry. It will not be a forceful relationship. I also hated that type of thing.)

Looking at the extravagant gifts, Lu Nanzhi's mind was a bit chaotic.

What they said was true, Lin Weihao was very unpredictable. 

To distract herself, Lu Nanzhi busied herself in the kitchen.

After harvesting some of the first batch, she sowed the second batch of seeds on the vacant plots.

Because she was always on the road for a week, she hadn't had a chance to cook them.

However, she had tried the raw vegetables and fruits like the apple, mandarin, olive, banana, jujube, and grapes, which had also ripened.

They were surprisingly better than the expensive ones being sold on high-end markets in terms of taste and size.

As if blessed by the morning mist, the peels and leaves of the crops were glistening with dew drops.

Regarding the wheat and rice, they were still with husks and needed a mill.

Using the cabbage, carrot, shitake mushroom, bean sprouts, tomatoes, and corn, she made stir-fry bean sprouts with shitake mushrooms, steamed cabbage rolls with carrot and ground beef fillings, a tomato egg omelet, and steamed corn.

The moment she tasted them, she nodded in approval. Not only do they taste splendid, but they can also help her recover her stamina.

She can feel her body was filled with energy, and her exhaustion was gone.

Because there was still time left for the day, Lu Nanzhi drove to a supermarket nearby, emptied their stock of the disposable Styrofoam lunch boxes, and started packing the food she made.

The building was installed with a natural gas pipe; she didn't need a LPG, but it's a different story when the disaster comes.

Meanwhile, the building residents who smelt the foods' aroma coming from Lu Nanzhi's balcony became hungry and started ordering meals.

…..

That night, Lu Nanzhi could hardly sleep. She would dream about a towering shadow releasing dense cold miasma in the shape of Lin Weihao, engulfing her entire form.

Lin Weihao's lips had an imperceptible arc, slightly melting the chilly air cloaking him and dulling the sharpness of his piercing stare. 

His mouth moved, but Nanzhi wasn't able to discern what he wanted to say because only muffled sounds reached her ears.

The dream ended up there, but the scared Nanzhi didn't want to sleep anymore lest the dream turn to something else and decided to get back on the road as early as 4 in the morning after transferring cash to the supervisor for the installation of the solar panels and a backup standby generator inside.

…..

Due to a lack of network to gather information during the dark era, Lu Nanzhi has had a habit of listening to news after she regressed. She always turned on the radio of the truck when driving.

Early in the morning, two pieces of news struck her attention.

One was about the Lu. It seems Lu Meiying had successfully won the chairman's seat, but just a day after her appointment, the business establishment under her faces money laundering and tax evasion.

The news only mentioned Lu Meiying and never the Lu Corporation or Lu Chenyu.

Lu Nanzhi curled her lips. That Lu Chenyu is really a petty man to use desperate means. To get what he wants, he will do anything. Going as far as to frame his sister and tarnishing the long-standing image cultivated by the previous patriarchs.

There is no way that the corporation won't be affected.

Just as she guessed it, the stocks had indeed been influenced, and they dropped by 5%–15%. For a big company, the losses would be staggering.

This was a bit of good news to her because it suggests Lu Chenyu less likely found her whereabouts.

The other news was that two of the standing committee members, surnamed Lan and Zhou, were also facing charges of graft and corruption because the evidence and witnesses' testimonies were clear and convincing.

The majority of the speculation is that these two and those accomplices are highly probable to end up behind bars.

She remembered that Lu Chenyu was close to someone from the Zhou. He was even one of the main supporters, investing money during the campaign.

If he were to get convicted too, then would be wonderful.

In a good mood, she hummed a little tune before returning her attention on the road.

Having experienced the inconvenience and dangers of traveling on foot, Lu Nanzhi intended to stop by a car dealership company near the military region.

The mentioned company was also an auto parts supplier and offers vehicle modifications for car enthusiasts, and it even sells decommissioned military vehicles.

The company was rather located in a quiet neighborhood, and it didn't have a display room but a direct garage.
