Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy! - Chapter 145

Chapter 145: Taking Advantage of Tofu
The first sensation was a rush of icy coolness, as if she’d swallowed a mouthful of snow, followed by a sudden burst of warmth radiating from her chest upward.

As she didn’t feel any discomfort, Nanzhi finished the whole serum. The heat traveled around her body.

[Effect active: Frost resistance by 50% for two days.]

Testing the efficacy, she entered the Daily Dungeon and approached the buckets with half-melted snow, sinking her whole arm in.

She expected the usual biting chill to seep through her skin—but there was nothing.

Nanzhi was amazed and stayed in the same position. Even after five minutes, her arm felt perfectly fine, she only felt a cool breeze.

She didn’t waste any precious Game Lobby time and started making another batch after collecting firewood from the corner.

She only stopped when there was an hour left of her Game Lobby time before carrying her equipment into the Daily Dungeon again.

“Cluck!” The chickens were surprised by her sudden appearance.

In the end, she was able to make 20 more bowls of Frostbane Serum. The success rate was around 75%.

Now, her problems were finding glass vials, as she couldn’t use bowls all the time, increasing her Game Lobby time to make more serums, and her stock of honey.

There were glass vials in her inventory, but they were full of vaccine medicine.

As for the jades, Nanzhi remembered Lin Weihao.

She could sell the serums to him.

The honey part needed her to make a trip to the Misty Land to see if she could find some.

But with the remaining time, it might not be enough. She’d try tomorrow.

Nanzhi busied herself extracting more spores and separating the edible part of the mushrooms.

When Lin Weihao woke up, it was already five in the morning. He blinked and patted the space beside him for Nanzhi, but his wife was not around.

In his sleepy state, his mind seemed to wander to the day she had left him in the past.

He also found himself on the bed after regaining consciousness from consuming the spike drink. He had laid there with Haoran.

His slightly clouded eyes sank.

In the kitchen, Nanzhi heard the door burst open and Lin Weihao calling her name loudly and in panic.

“Zhi Zhi! Zhi Zhi!”

“Zhi Zhi! Zhi Zhi! Don’t leave!”

She saw Lin Weihao frantically trying to open the door.

Nanzhi dropped the knife and left the kitchen to chase after him.

“Weihao!” Nanzhi grabbed his arm, awakening him from the bad memories.

When the familiar voice and scent appeared by his side, it calmed the raging emotions in Lin Weihao.

His breath hitched, and for a moment, he couldn’t move. Relief and disbelief collided, leaving him frozen.

“You’re here,” he rasped, his voice barely audible.

“Where else would I be?” she asked with confusion, but after pondering, she realized why he was acting that way.

Lin Weihao buried his face in her shoulder. “Don’t disappear on me again.”

Nanzhi knew he was reliving a bad memory.

“I won’t,” she whispered, her arms wrapping around him. “I’m right here.”

This little compromise made Lin Weihao’s heart warm. He reciprocated with a hug too.

Nanzhi was a little startled but didn’t move away.

“Have breakfast first before leaving.”

“Alright.” Lin Weihao’s face brightened at her invitation. As he had been completely busy, he hadn’t tasted his wife’s cooking for the past few days.

But his plan was put on hold when his phone rang.

He rubbed his face tiredly before bidding Nanzhi goodbye. “I’ll come back later.”

Nanzhi’s mind was occupied on the serum, and she didn’t notice him sneaking a kiss on her cheek.

She grabbed his sleeves and said, “Wait.”

She quickly ran to the kitchen and packed several meal boxes of stir-fried wintergreen mushrooms, soup with wintergreen mushrooms, rice, and steamed dumplings stuffed with minced wintergreen mushrooms she had made.

As well as a small cup filled with Frostbane Serum. The glow had faded, and all that was left was thick syrup.

“I made this. It’s good for the cold,” Nanzhi said as she urged Lin Weihao to drink it.

Anyway, she planned to tell Lin Weihao about it, since she would need a business partner considering how busy she was gaining EXP.

She didn’t have any energy to spare.

Additionally, this man was one of the most successful people in the world. He would definitely manage the business well.

She could just split the profits between them.

A smile grew on Lin Weihao’s lips as he finished it in one single sip.

He thought it was just some kind of juice, but what his wife made him was beyond his expectation.

A stream of cold flowed down his throat before it was replaced with a warm current.

Now, it felt a little stuffy with the scarf, mittens, and the thick down jacket and pants he was wearing.

Even though Lin Weihao’s expression barely changed, he was very surprised inside.

Nanzhi curiously asked, “How do you feel? Do you feel anything special?” Let’s advertise the product first.

Lin Weihao could read his wife’s expression, the corner of his mouth arched. He went along with it.

“It’s good. I feel warm, and it’s almost as if I didn’t need a coat. What kind of miraculous drink did you give me? If the soldiers or medics drink it too, they won’t suffer in this weather.”

As if she was waiting for him to say that, Nanzhi ran to the kitchen and grabbed 10 more bowls.

Since he had space, he could carry them.

However, she didn’t forget to say, “I made them last night, and I was planning to sell them. But for you, Feng Ran, Bingwen, Hei Qian, your elders, and Lin Yicheng, it’s free.” She coughed. “If anyone you know wants to order more, tell me. I’m willing to sell them for jades.”

Lin Weihao could imagine a foxy tail behind her, waving in the air, and it made him chuckle internally.

“Alright. I’ll come back for dinner.” He snuck another kiss while mentally taking a note to amass jades for her.

Nanzhi only realized that her tofu had been taken advantage of twice when Lin Weihao left.

Her eyes narrowed.

Heh. You’d better not come back jadeless after stealing two kisses from me.
