He really had a soft spot for his nephew.
"But such a good boy, it makes me want to kidnap him." With Lin Yicheng around, the days in disasters will not be so lonely.
Nanzhi chuckled at her whimsical thoughts as she strode towards the bathroom. With an uncle like Lin Weihao, it would not be easy.
Meanwhile, in Unit 2105, Xiao Lizi only was able to enter her unit. Closing the door, she tried to call her brother, but Xiao Cao didn't accept her call at all and only sent her a text.
"Xiao Lizi, you bitch! You didn't help me at all and only stand at the side! You really are my good sister!"
She only just received a contract with the Jade Dragon; if Xiao Cao spread her scandalous photos around, the contract will be revoked. She can't allow that to happen!
.....
Nanzhi stopped in front of a mirror, and as she leaned closer, she noticed that her skin had become much whiter than before. Those freckles on her face had also become faint, almost gone.
She hadn't used any personal care items on the road and only took a daily bath. Could this also be one of the benefits of crops of the Virtual Farm?
Come to think of it, in the early days of stockpiling, she would be easily exhausted from driving all around. Nanzhi had to take supplements but after a month ago, she was able to go on without sleeping for a day.
If that was really the case, she wonder what sort of benefits the Mutated Salacca would bring?
Nanzhi thought and went to scan the interior of the house.
Because of the renovation, she hadn't had the opportunity to properly decorate the house. She will be living here for at least six months; better make it cozy.
Nanzhi spent the rest of the day cleaning and moving old furniture. In the fridge, she found more boxes of chocolates. Nanzhi opened them and decided to make something special for Lin Yicheng.
When she was finished, she sat on the sofa and opened the Taobao app, spending the rest of the day ordering exercising equipment, 5, 000 boxes of personal care and sanitary kits, which include wipes, sanitary pads, and sunscreen, 50 electronic devices, memory cards, and extra energy banks. She wanted to download movies and games. At least they can fill up the loneliness.
An online banner of a shop promoting their educational books caught Nanzhi's attention.
During the great flood, a lot of bookstores and libraries were flooded; only a few remained, and when the snowstorm hit, in place of firewood, books were burned to provide warmth.
When bases wanted to rebuild civilization, crucial books eventually became scarce and it was hard to find them.
Lu Nanzhi placed an order and ordered a set of each of their books, spending half a million yuan. The bookstores gave rims of bond papers and scented stationery as freebies.
Closing the app, her fingers accidentally clicked on the news article.
"Dozens of freshwater reservoirs spread across Gail City, Basalt City, and other northern parts of the C Country were drained down to a quarter. The management of the reservoirs is still conducting an investigation as to what might be the cause of these collective phenomena."
Nanzhi reread the article a dozen times.
Is the news writer drunk?
She went to H Country and not C Country!
Her state of confusion was similar to Lin Weihao.
Nanzhi quickly scrolled and found out the news writer was sober and it was only her misunderstanding.
"We received reports that not only C Country experienced the decrease in water in their reservoirs."
That doesn't make sense unless she had to sleepwalk herself to C Country?
Nanzhi scrolled and tried to find information about it but could not find any.
What the heck happened in C Country?
At night, she tossed and turned, thinking about it until she tired herself to sleep.
In the morning, Nanzhi waited for Lin Yicheng, but not a shadow of his or Lin Weihao's came to visit her house that day.
Xiao Lizi also got tired of waiting for the handsome man that used to visit 2103, but she was partly happy about it, thinking the one in 2103 must have been abandoned!
Nanzhi stared at the bunnies, swan, ladybug, turtle, and bears carved from fruits and coated with a layer of chocolate inside the box before deciding to call it a day.
For the following days, there was still no sign of the Lin Yicheng; she busied herself with online shopping and unboxing....ahem....tearing the cement bags.
From the three large trucks worth of cement bags, she obtained hundreds of handguns, rifles, parts of RPC launchers and machine guns, magazines, smoke grenades, incendiary grenades, and thousands of ammo cans filled with different calibers of bullets.
Some of them had tracking numbers.
Judging from the amount, Nanzhi knew this was not an ordinary smuggling transaction.
…..
At the same time, Lu Ren and his cronies were also captured by Lu Chenyu after two days of hiding, and what awaited them was the cold underground basement of the Lu family and Lu Chenyu's wrath.
"Lu Ren, you've really grown wings, trying to escape from me! Because of you, I need to compensate Zhou Enlai three times the amount! I totally lost billions due to your stupidity! Even turning you into a corpse would quench my anger!"
His relationship with Zhou Enlai had been strained, and the possibility of winning the court case against his ambitious sister is now close to null.
Lu Meiying might really emerge victorious in this battle, and the fact that his men still couldn't find that brat angered him even more.
Nothing ever goes as his plan!
"Ahh!"
The cold and musty walls contained their screams of Lu Ren and his cronies and it was their turn to beg for their lives.
"Boss Lu! Please allow me to redeem myself! I will find the culprit and made him kneel to you!"
"Ahh!"
Lu Chenyu snickered. To him, Lu Ren and his men were merely hunting dogs and if they lose usefulness, they can be discarded.
No matter how Lu Ren begged, the whip came falling onto his back. His screams intensified.
Hours later, Lu Chenyu left the underground floor with his clothes thoroughly soaked with blood. An assistant came in and lit a cigarette for him before whispering something in his ears.
Lu Chenyu burst out laughing.
Jade City, Synergy Company Main Headquarters, 30th Floor, Chairman's Office.
Lu Meiying was going over the reports for the day when her personal phone rang.
The name of her son appeared on the screen. Lu Meiying immediately answered the call, but instead of hearing her beloved son's voice, it was Lu Chenyu.
She had a bad premonition.
"Heh, Sister, was the chairman's seat very comfortable?"
"Lu Chengyu! What did you do to my son?"
If Nanzhi were to know about this. She likely be happy and say: Come on, hurt each other more!
