Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy! novel Chapter 56

(A/N: Furong- Water Lily)

The Furong Lake Resort was among the best tourist attraction spot in the Pearl City. It was known for its crystal lake brimming of delicious carps and pink and while lotuses pond.

The scenery here is breath-taking and beautiful. Tourist mostly enjoyed the boat paddling, edge cycling, and the BBQs by the lake.

The resort consist of a grand hotel, 15-stories high, restaurant, children playgrounds, karaoke, gardens and many more.

Nanzhi wanted to come here last time to buy carps but because the villagers living on the edges of the resort had a contract with the nearby restaurants to exclusively supply the carps, she was rejected.

After the heavy rain and flood, not a trace of its former self was left.

All her eyes could see was endless debris like broken tree logs, overturned boat floaters and kayaks, garbage, and household stuff, and there were even carps’ carcasses already infested with maggots scattered around, along with broken lotus tubers and rhizomes covered in mud being picked up by survivors.

It was mostly children and woman dressed in loose and dirty clothing picking them up and putting them in small baskets.

At one glance, she could tell they were the villagers.

Their states were in contrast with the people standing on the walkways in the hotel. The people in the hotel were cleanly dressed and weren’t so thin and rugged.

The condition of the air was bad. Nanzhi didn’t stay outside and headed towards the hotel’s stairways.

She hadn’t taken a step in the stairs when her way was blocked. It was a bald man with bulging arms. His arms and neck were covered in tattoos.

"I’m the hotel’s guard, we don’t accept survivors. You should find another place to stay for the night." He said while his eyes checking her from head to toe.

An Bo examined the woman in front of him. He could only see her eyes and couldn’t determine if she was pretty or not but her figure was rather good.

Boss will surely like it and will reward him with an extra portion of food.

An Bo had a sticky smile on his face and retracted his words. He stepped aside and said, "Hold on, Little Lady, I just remembered there is a vacant room in the 12th floor. You can come in if you want."

Seeing the woman not moving, An Bo grinned and stretched out his hand. "Lady, don’t be shy."

But when his hand was a foot away from the woman’s arm, the latter tugged something from her back.

An Bo stiffened at the bolo machete with its sharp blade hovering a centimetre above his wrist.

"Keep your hands to yourself." Nanzhi coldly said. She wasn’t oblivious to the malicious thoughts going on his head.

An Bo quickly retreated a meter back before saying in a furious tone, "Ungrateful woman! I was kind enough to offer you a room but you actually repaid my kindness by threatening me!"

The man’s words only passed as winds in Nanzhi’s ears. She was about to turn around, but she heard someone call her name.

An Bo’s voice was so loud that it attracted everyone’s attention.

Ten men thin and fat along with their bodies and face covered in tattoos and two women dressed in tank tops and shorts climbed down the stairs and went behind An Bo.

The two women saw Nanzhi and quickly called out her name, "Nanzhi?"

Nanzhi was wearing a make-up but her voice was familiar to them.

However, Nanzhi didn’t recognize the woman at first glance.

"Nanzhi, it’s really you. I’m glad to see you still alive." Gu Ling said. Her words may be pleasant to hear but her eyes were expressing a bit of mockery.

As Nanzhi’s disguise, she donned on an outer layer of dirty and muddy clothes. This made the woman had assumption that Nanzhi was living miserably during the disaster.

Before, Nanzhi was always above them whether it was performance and skills, in contrast to them always being scolded by the senior accountants.

They were the only women in the whole department and therefore the management always compares them to each other. Nanzhi garnered all the praises and the promotion chance!

While they remained in the bottom!

They were very bitter about it.

But now how the situation have turn tables.

Heh.
