Ice Age Apocalypse: I've Stockpiled Billions of Resources

"It's snowing heavily outside, so let's just have a simple meal. Thanks to some people for their help, which made me have a big appetite; otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to finish all that food."

After reading this sentence, Tian Xiaoyu felt terrible.

Especially when it's snowing heavily outside, you can just grab a quick and easy meal.

Lin Luo's table was laden with fresh lamb and beef, tripe, duck intestines, beef aorta, shrimp paste, sea cucumber, squid, and more—a total of over twenty dishes.

Tian Xiaoyu looked at what she considered a "sumptuous hot pot" again, and there were only eight plates of ingredients at most.

Compared to Lin Luo's hot pot, the ingredients she prepared were pitifully few.

Tian Xiaoyu's good mood vanished instantly.

She decided that next time she ate, she absolutely must not look at Lin Luo's WeChat Moments.

Every time I see it, I feel mentally broken, and I don't even want to eat.

...

"Son, come and eat."

Aunt Wang shouted.

"coming."

Li Hongwei came out of the room.

He came to the dining table and immediately frowned: "Why are there only three dishes today? The best dish is stir-fried pork with dried bamboo shoots. There are only a few slices of pork and so many dried bamboo shoots. Are you trying to starve your son?"

"It's good enough to have meat to eat. If you keep complaining, you won't even have meat to eat in the end."

Aunt Wang said irritably.

"No, I want to eat fish, lamb, duck tongue, and shrimp."

Li Hongwei shouted.

“I want to eat too. Who can satisfy me? If you want to blame someone, blame Lin Luo. If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t be eating these things. The things he said yesterday have caused no one to donate supplies now. Your Uncle Gao and I have organized several donation drives, but hardly anyone has donated.”

Aunt Wang said with a dark face.

"That damn Lin Luo, I called him a few times before and he didn't answer. He must be afraid I'll yell at him. Mom, give me your phone."

Li Hongwei was furious.

"Threaten him so he vomits up more food."

Aunt Wang encouraged him.

Li Hongwei dialed Lin Luo's number several times, but none of the calls went through.

He said angrily, "This kid is definitely afraid of me and is deliberately not answering my calls."

"Lin Luo is a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. He was quite capable in the group back then, but he only knew that we old folks were helpless against a ruthless person like my son."

Aunt Wang also believed that Lin Luo was scared, which was why he deliberately didn't answer the phone.

"Wait a minute, Lin Luo isn't answering his phone, yet he still has the leisure to post on his WeChat Moments."

Li Hongwei casually opened his WeChat Moments.

Lin Luo posted a set of hot pot photos: a steaming hot pot with more than twenty fresh and glistening ingredients, and a bottle of Moutai worth several thousand yuan.

The accompanying text is even more infuriating, describing how some people can whet one's appetite.

Li Hongwei immediately took the role, believing that Lin Luo was talking about him.

"I'm so angry! You won't answer the phone, so I'll call you until you do."

He dialed Lin Luo's number again, but Lin Luo still did not answer.

"Son, eat first."

Aunt Wang advised.

I'm not in the mood to eat.

After seeing Lin Luo enjoying a sumptuous hot pot meal, Li Hongwei lost all appetite.

"I slept so well."

Lin Luo stretched vigorously, feeling refreshed.

A massage chair costing tens of thousands of yuan is far more comfortable than a shared massage chair in a shopping mall.

He had been feeling some back pain, but now it's all gone.

He picked up the phone and saw that Aunt Wang was calling him.

Lin Luo didn't answer the phone directly; he checked the call log first.

An unknown phone called him several times in a row, then it was Aunt Wang's phone that made the call.

This unfamiliar phone number has been called many times before.

Lin Luo saw that it was an unfamiliar number and did not answer the call.

"I beat the old one, and then the little one came along."

Lin Luo thought of someone.

Grandma Wang has a son named Li Hongwei.

Li Hongwei has been a swindler and cheater since childhood.

As he grew up, he became a local thug, engaging in extortion and blackmail.

Later, he committed a crime and spent several years in prison.

After his release from prison, Li Hongwei became more honest and less blatant in his actions.

But he remained incorrigible, neglecting his work and frequently injuring people.

Later, Li Hongwei was shunned by everyone and found it difficult to find a job.

Without a job, Li Hongwei naturally had no source of income and spent his days playing games at home and sponging off his parents.

Most of the money that Aunt Wang earns from organizing charity donations for the property management company goes towards supporting her son.

If Grandma Wang is a "hypocrite," then her son is a complete villain.

In his past life, Lin Luo remembered that he wanted to donate supplies to Grandma Wang, so he took a lot of instant noodles and fast food hot pot.

It's not that he's stingy or deliberately taking these junk foods.

Lin Luo felt that fresh ingredients would easily rot and spoil.

It would be such a waste if Aunt Wang didn't distribute the food in time and it went bad.

Li Hongwei happened to see this, and he was immediately displeased.

Li Hongwei demanded that Lin Luo replace the food with fresh food, otherwise he would not accept the food.

Lin Luo explained it to Li Hongwei, but it was no use at all.

Aunt Wang only pretended to offer a couple of words of advice before immediately siding with Li Hongwei.

She shared the same idea as her son and also requested to switch to fresh food.

Left with no other choice, Lin Luo braved the extreme cold to return home and replaced his fast food with fresh food.

He brought out three fresh ingredients: pork, green vegetables, and potatoes, and the two of them started arguing again.

Li Hongwei said that three ingredients were not enough, and they needed to bring one more ingredient.

Aunt Wang sided with her son again, telling Lin Luo to go back and get the ingredients.

Lin Luo was unwilling, but he believed that neighbors and fellow villagers should help each other.

If I help my neighbor today, my neighbor will help me next time.

Then he took out five pounds of fresh tuna from his home, worth a total of three hundred yuan.

Lin Luo offered tuna to Aunt Wang, but Li Hongwei kept complaining about it.

He also said that he doesn't like tuna, but prefers threadfin.

Not only are threadfin bream very large, but they can also be used as weapons.

Lin Luo made three round trips, and the weather outside was very cold.

His subsequent illness, caused by a cold, was inextricably linked to Li Hongwei.

Lin Luo could only blame herself for being too kind and believing Li Hongwei's words.

Upon reflection, he realized that Li Hongwei was simply the one who wanted to eat fish.

Li Hongwei deliberately said that the supplies Lin Luo donated were not good, hoping that Lin Luo would give him some fish to eat.

Lin Luo took out only one tuna, which Li Hongwei looked disgusted with.

Knowing that it was most likely Li Hongwei calling, Lin Luo calmly answered the phone.

"Hey!"

"You finally answered the phone! I thought you were a coward, too scared to even answer the phone."

Li Hongwei's angry voice immediately rang out.

"You? You overestimate yourself."

Lin Luo said sarcastically, "I just drank too much Moutai after eating hot pot and fell asleep in the massage chair. Don't mention Moutai, it's really delicious, and the beef bone hot pot was also very tasty."

He deliberately emphasized the words "Flying Moutai" and "beef bone hot pot".
