Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies

Chapter 159: Their Past (3)



Long Yu smiled at Yao Ran and said, "At that time, I had already lost most of my teammates. We fought for ten consecutive days without rest, suffered a lot of injuries, and could no longer fight."

His eyes dimmed as he said, "We lost Jia Xiang there. She took explosive and blew herself up together with the mutant rat king, saving the rest of us."

"Just when I almost fell into a coma because of the heavy bleeding, you secretly fed me and my comrades the water and food you grew with your abilities. On the sixteenth day after we were trapped, your teammates wanted to use me and my comrades as bait to escape from there."

"When you disagreed and wanted to stay with us, your teammates blamed you for being selfish and not caring about their lives. I remember when those people were about to drag us out, I saw you standing in front of me and my comrades. If it weren't for you, my comrades and I would have died there."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Long Yu remembered what happened next, sighed, and his eyes filled with regret.

After a few seconds of silence, he added, "When I regained consciousness a few days after the rescue, I went to find you, but you had already resigned from the mercenary team and left with your family."

When she heard this, Yao Ran felt as if she had really done something like that before. Unfortunately, all she could remember were fragments of memory, which disappeared before she could grasp them.

Yao Ran took a sip of hot chocolate and asked, "What about our third encounter?"

Long Yu recalled that day and lamented that they really had no fate in their previous life.

He looked at her and said, "One day, when I came back from a mission, I saw you lining up in front of the Juncheng base. That was three years after our separation at Haicheng Base. I was very happy to see you again, so after reporting the mission to the military, I hurriedly went to visit you."

"But when I went to your rental house, the people living there said there was no one named Yao Ran there. I didn't believe them, so I looked for you everywhere. But no matter how long or how far I looked for you, you seemed to disappear without a trace from this world."

His eyes turned red as he remembered the despair, unwillingness, and deep fear he felt when everyone said she must be dead. Fortunately, he could meet her again in this life.

Yao Ran thought for a while and asked, "When did it happen?"

"It was the eighth year since the end of the world began." Long Yu replied.

Hearing this, Yao Ran sighed, "Eight years after the end of the world began, Lan Guanghui sold me to the laboratory."

Long Yu was shocked and thought of the middle-aged man who had come to find Yao Ran before. He gritted his teeth and regretted not knowing about this earlier. Otherwise, he would make that man pay for what he had done to Yao Ran.

Sensing his murderous intention, Yao Ran felt warm in her heart. No one stood up for her except her grandfather and adoptive grandparents. But now, she has Long Yu and his friends. She lowered her eyes and continued, "I remember that after we rented a house on the Juncheng base, he took me to meet a group of people. Then, when I opened my eyes again, I was in an empty white room. I spent the rest of my life in that place until I died trying to escape."

Seeing his gloomy expression, Yao Ran picked up a large piece of bacon and put it into his bowl.

She smiled at him and said, "You don't need to feel sorry for me. All of this is a thing of the past. Besides, I won't let those people off easily. I will get back everything they owe me."

Long Yu looked at the bacon in the bowl and then at Yao Ran's smile, and all his gloomy emotions disappeared instantly.

"Ran Ran, let me help you."

Before, Yao Ran was still hesitant about teaming up with him. But now, she nodded and readily agreed.

"This is what you said yourself. From now on, I will depend on you. You can't abandon me halfway. Otherwise, I will put your name on my hit list."

"Mhm."

He smiled at her, and the two of them finished their breakfast while chatting.

After finishing the meal, Long Yu said, "Ran Ran, I have something to tell you."

"What is that?" Yao Ran asked curiously.

Long Yu raised his hand and opened his palm, and then Yao Ran felt an energy fluctuation in the air. She looked at Long Yu's palm, her eyes flickering. After a few seconds, the energy fluctuations disappeared.

Long Yu didn't wait for Yao Ran to speak and said, "I have wind element ability. I know you also have your wood element and water element abilities. I can feel the energy fluctuations

around you."

Now that he had told her his secret and knew about her wood and water abilities, Yao Ran just nodded and admitted it. However, she did not tell him about the spatial ability she gained after being injected with various serums in the laboratory.

Judging from Long Yu's reaction when he heard that Lan Guanghui sold her to the laboratory, he must know what she went through in the laboratory. Therefore, Yao Ran decided not to tell him in detail what she experienced in the laboratory. It's enough for her to bear everything alone.

After the two shared some secrets, Yao Ran felt closer to Long Yu, and her attitude toward him changed. She didn't notice this subtle change, but Long Yu saw it clearly.

After spending another hour sharing about their past, Long Yu stood up and said, "I'm going back first. You can take a look at the documents. When you are done, I will accompany you to see Yao Yuechuan."
