Natural Disasters Strikes: I stockpiled like crazy! novel Chapter 82

The crackle of the fire in the fireplace woke up Lin Weihao.

He found himself in a small, warm and clean room filled with white and grey wolf pelts. Some of them have been laid on the floor, a few hang near the fireplace to dry and rest were sewed into coats.

The beddings, pillows, and blanket on him were also made of wolf pelts.

He tried to sit up and the deep wound on his abdomen throbbed painfully. Lin Weihao raised the blankets and noticed the bandage dressings.

Tapping footsteps coming from the door located at the foot of his bed entered his ears.

The door swung opened and a person wrapped in thick layers of coat made of the wolf pelt and snow came in.

When the person took off her hat, Lin Weihao confirmed it was a woman.

Seemingly sensing his probing eyes, the woman spoke. "There’s a cup of hot water on the cupboard. Help yourself."

Lin Weihao spun his head to the cupboard on his right and there was a pink thermos and a small ceramic cup.

While his eyes stayed on the cup, the woman approached him and placed a wooden bowl filled with soup. Pieces of meat could be seen floating on top.

With the short distance between them, he can finally see her features clearly. His gaze was drawn to her sharp, hazelnut nut eyes.

"It’s wolf soup. Drink it while it’s hot."

There’s always this survivor’s guilt that would haunt survivors into depression and it also struck Lin Weihao’s chord. He couldn’t bring himself to drink water or eat or at all.

"You don’t want to eat? Suit yourself." The woman didn’t insist and this continue for days.

"Still not eating? Then, an extra portion for me."

"You are like a young master in those troublesome novels that is difficult to serve."

"Ah. If only I can find beef and potatoes. I would have cook them into beef stew."

"Fine, domineering CEO, I’m sorry that I can’t prepare your caviar."

"Hey, if you want to die, don’t do it in my bed and go outside on your own."

The woman only spoke to him whenever it was meal time and some of the sentences she said made him want to vomit blood.

Lin Weihao finally couldn’t take it anymore and he asked, "Why did you save me? You could just leave me there to die."

The woman didn’t even hide her surprised expression.

"Oh, you can hear me and talk too."

Lin Weihao didn’t know how to feel in that moment but for a short time, he forgot about the bitter memories because of her.

The woman clicked her tongue before turning around to face the fireplace. Her hands added more firewood into the fireplace.

She rubbed her hands and warmed them near the fire before speaking, "I don’t know but it must be because I’m starting to hallucinate. I thought I saw a human the other day but when I brought him back, it was actually a log. I thought you’re going to be another log but it turns out your real human."

Lin Weihao was silent. He couldn’t find a connection between her hallucination and the reason for saving him.
