Chapter 88: Making Wontons (1)
Without waiting for Long Yu to answer, Yao Ran returned to her bedroom. She put away the chocolates and took the money she found from the wealthy CEO's safe. She put the money into a backpack and carried it out.
Seeing her coming back with a backpack, Long Yu glanced at her curiously but didn't ask any questions.
"Let's go and find the others."
Yao Ran locked the door, and the two went to find Shi Xuan and the others.
After everyone gathered in the living room of unit 2001, Yao Ran put the backpack on the low table and said, "I found this when we went to the office building last time. I just finished sorting out the supplies today, and I think that you guys need to know about this."
She then opened the backpack in front of everyone. When the others saw it filled with money, their eyes widened in surprise.
Huang Qian had never seen so much money in his life and asked, "How much money is inside this backpack?"
Shi Xuan and Jia Xiang counted the money and said in shock, "Two million yuan. There's so much money."
If it was before the natural disasters, they could even buy a small house in the suburbs with the money. But now, it is hard to say how much supplies this money can buy.
Huang Zhihui sighed and said pitifully, "We have money, but we can't buy anything."
They just went to the department store today and found that the price of rice has risen to 500 yuan per kilogram, and each person is limited to one kilogram per day. The rice sold is not of high quality but is salvaged out of the water and dried in the sun before being sold to the public.
"The rain shows no sign of stopping, and I don't know if it will snow, but we must make preparations in advance. If it rains heavily when winter comes, this winter may be different from the usual winter. We should prepare some winter clothes and fuel as much as possible."
The others fell into deep thought after listening to Yao Ran's words.
After a moment of silence, Shi Xuan said, "I agree with Yao Ran. Let's go to the department store tomorrow to buy something. As long as it can be used, we must buy it."
When they were discussing, Long Yu remained silent. Yao Ran, who was sitting next to him, felt a little uneasy when his deep eyes fell on her from time to time.
After the discussion, Yao Ran left with Long Yu. Before she could open her door, Long Yu suddenly asked, "Yao Ran, can you teach me how to make wontons?"
Yao Ran was so surprised by his words that she couldn't react for a moment. She thought he would ask her how she knew so much about the weather, but she never expected him to ask her to teach him how to make wontons.
Seeing that she was just staring at him, Long Yu lowered his eyes and asked with a hint of sadness in his voice, "You don't want to teach me?"
After hearing this question, Yao Ran came to her senses. She stared at him for a moment and then said, "It's a small matter. I can teach you if you want."
After receiving her answer, Long Yu raised his eyes and smiled at her, "Can you teach me now?"
"Now?"
Long Yu asked again, "You can't?"
Yao Ran was speechless when she saw this tall and handsome man staring at her like an abandoned puppy. She really couldn't keep up with his thoughts.
