Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies - Chapter 89

Chapter 89: Making Wontons (2)
After a moment of silence, she asked, “Should I go to your apartment, or should you come with me to mine?”

Long Yu’s eyes lit up when he heard this question, and he quickly replied, “It’s better to do it at my house. I can clean the house after we finish cooking, and you just need to teach me how to cook.”

“Alright.”

After Yao Ran agreed to his request, Long Yu smiled and said, “Then I will wait for you at home.”

“Mhm.”

Back in her apartment, Yao Ran took out a bag of flour and the ingredients needed to make wontons from her space. She put the ingredients into a basket and went to Long Yu’s apartment.

Before she could knock on the door, Long Yu opened the door from inside. He smiled and said, “You are here. Please come in.”

This is the second time she has come to his apartment, so Yao Ran went directly to the kitchen without looking around.

The kitchen is clean and tidy. Yao Ran put down the basket on the kitchen counter and asked, “What fillings do you want to make today?”

Long Yu walked into the kitchen and said, “What you cooked today is delicious.”

Yao Ran nodded, “I brought some fresh meat, vegetables, and mushrooms. We can share them.”

Long Yu didn’t want to take advantage of her, so he said, “Then I will provide flour and other ingredients.”

“Alright.”

After Yao Ran briefly explained to Long Yu how to make wontons, they began to prepare the fillings. They worked for several hours and made three thousand wontons.

Long Yu looked at the beautifully wrapped wontons in front of Yao Ran and then at the crookedly wrapped wontons in front of him.

He scratched his head in confusion and muttered, “I did as you said. Why can’t I wrap it beautifully like you?”

Yao Ran stood beside him, not knowing what to say.

“…” Don’t ask me. I also wonder why you can’t do it correctly.

Yao Ran was speechless. She taught him for several hours, but none of Long Yu’s wontons looked good. Some had broken skins, some did not have enough filling and looked like deflated balloons, and some could not even stick the skin together and turn into blooming flowers instead.

Seeing his confused look, Yao Ran patted his shoulder and said, “The first time I made wontons, I couldn’t even wrap them. You did it better than me.”

“Really?” Although Long Yu was doubtful, he was happy that she took care of his feelings and praised him.

Yao Ran nodded and lied without blinking, “Yes. You did a good job.”

After praising Long Yu a few times, she divided the wontons into two portions and put them into the small box she had prepared before. Seeing that she also took away the ugly wontons that he made, Long Yu’s smile brightened.

Yao Ran put away the box filled with wontons and said, “Now, I will teach you how to cook the wonton soup.”

“Mhm.”

Yao Ran spent another hour teaching Long Yu how to prepare the wonton soup and had dinner with him. When she finally returned to her apartment, it was already dark outside.

She went into her space to take a shower and put the wontons into the warehouse. When she came out again, Yao Ran collapsed on the soft bed, thinking about what had happened today.

It’s incredible that she spent hours patiently teaching Long Yu how to wrap wontons and even had two meals with him.

If it were her previous life, she would definitely question Long Yu’s motives for approaching her. But now, she just wants to enjoy a peaceful life with her friends.

Recalling the happy and comfortable feeling she felt when she was with him, the corners of her lips raised slightly.

Yao Ran covered her cheek with her palms and muttered in a daze, “Is this what having a friend feels like? It’s so nice to spend time with him.”

Early the next morning, Yao Ran was woken up by the noise outside. She got out of bed, took a shower, and brushed her teeth before going out to take a look.

Seeing Huang Qian angrily arguing with someone on the stairs, she approached him and asked, “Who came to make trouble so early today?”

Huang Qian turned around and saw her coming. He gritted his teeth and said, “Do you still remember that Lu Hong and his team were robbed two days ago?”

Yao Ran nodded, and then Huang Qian pointed to the people crowding on the corridor of the 19th floor and said, “They are here to ask for your help to treat their family members. I turned them down a few times, but they kept coming again and again. It’s really annoying.”

After hearing what he said, Yao Ran looked at the crowd and calmly said, “I’m not a doctor, and it’s useless for you to beg me. There’s nothing I can do.”

The crowd outside was speechless and stunned by her cold words.

After a long silence, an old man rushed out from behind the crowd and suddenly knelt in front of Yao Ran and said, “Miss Yao, you are a good person. You can’t let my son die. Please help him! I beg you!”

Seeing the old man kneeling on the ground and bowing deeply to Yao Ran, everyone came back to their senses and followed the old man. They knelt before Yao Ran and begged her to save their family.

“Miss Yao, you are a doctor. Doctors have the heart of a parent. I beg you to save my son!”

“That’s right. Miss Yao, as a doctor, you can’t just watch them die! It’s your duty to save people!”

Yao Ran stood there calmly and chuckled as if she was listening to a joke, but Huang Qian’s face became darker and darker as he listened.

Seeing that Yao Ran didn’t speak, a middle-aged woman suddenly rushed over and grabbed her hand.
