Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies-Chapter 494 : A Trap Or A Scheme
Unfazed by Long Qian's threat, Yao Ran coldly chuckled. She crossed her arms and leisurely said, "Since you are A Yu's younger cousin, I will spare your life today."
Thinking of the conversation with Long Yu just now, Yao Ran suddenly remembered the dishes Long Yu had cooked for her. Those dishes were still in her warehouse, almost filling up an entire shelf.
She stroked her chin and thought, 'It would be a shame to throw away the food that A Yu spent so much effort to make. But I don't dare to eat them.'
She looked at Long Qian again, and had an idea in her mind. She curled her lips and thought, 'Since he is A Yu's younger cousin, it would be just right to let him taste his elder cousin's cooking skills.'
With that in mind, Yao Ran walked over to the low table. She then took out several food containers from her space.
Looking at Long Qian, she smiled and added, "I will let you live… if you eat all of this food. Leave nothing behind, or none of you will walk out of this room alive."
Long Qian and the bodyguards exchanged wary glances when they heard her words with suspicion flickering in their eyes.
With a wave of her hand, Yao Ran released her control over their blood, allowing their temperatures to return to normal. As their skin gradually regained its natural color, they breathed a sigh of relief as the pain slowly disappeared.
Pointing at the food containers, Yao Ran ordered, "You have five minutes to finish everything. If you fail… Well, then none of you will walk out of that door alive today."
After saying that, Yao Ran set the timer and added, "Hurry up. If time is up and you haven't finished these dishes, don't blame me for sending you to meet Yan Wang ahead of schedule."
Seeing that she was serious, Long Qian and the bodyguards had no choice but to endure the pain and walk to the low table.
When they opened the food containers, they were surprised by what they saw. Instead of rotten food, the dishes smelled fragrant and looked delicious.
After inspecting the food, Long Qian narrowed his eyes at Yao Ran and asked, "Are you trying to poison us?"
Yao Ran rolled her eyes and replied, "Do I need to do that?"
Long Qian fell silent after listening to her reply and thought, 'With her abilities, she definitely doesn't need to resort to poison to kill us. Did she feel guilty and want to make it up to us?'
Although he thought that, Long Qian couldn't believe she was kind enough to give them food for free. Staring at the dishes, he wondered, 'For an enemy to suddenly be kind, it is either a trap or a scheme.'
Seeing him hesitating for a long time, Yao Ran reminded him, "You only have four minutes left."
At her reminder, Long Qian held out his hand and demanded, "Chopsticks."
Yao Ran rolled her eyes at him, took out a few pairs of chopsticks from her space, threw them at him, and said, "Hurry up."
With her urging, Long Qian's uneasiness grew. However, recalling the pain of his blood boiling inside his body, he braced himself and picked up a piece of braised meat. After taking a deep breath, he put it into his mouth.
The moment the braised meat touched his tongue, Long Qian's face turned green.
"Ugh!"
Before he could vomit, Yao Ran shot a vine and covered his mouth. She narrowed her eyes and coldly commanded, "Swallow it. If anyone dares to vomit, I will make them vomit blood instead."
Watching Long Qian being forced to swallow the braised meat and end up half-dead, the bodyguards' hands trembled as they held their chopsticks.
After ensuring Long Qian had swallowed the food, Yao Ran retracted her vine and commanded, "Continue."
Glaring at her, Long Qian could only pick up his chopsticks again and fearfully picked up a piece of stir-fried vegetable. While he forced himself to eat, tears welled up in his eyes.
Seeing this, Yao Ran looked at the bodyguards and asked, "Do you guys need me to feed you?"
"No, no, no! We can eat by ourselves." The bodyguards immediately shook their heads and quickly picked up the food.
Satisfied to see them eating obediently with half-death expressions and green faces, Yao Ran glanced at the timer and kindly reminded them. "You've got two and a half minutes left."
Hearing this, Long Qian and the bodyguards quickened their eating pace. To minimize the agony, they swallowed the food without chewing.
When Yao Ran saw that only ten seconds were left, she began to count down, "9… 8… 7…"
Realizing time was running out, the chief bodyguard bravely grabbed a food container and poured all the remaining food into his mouth. Seeing this, the others followed his lead.

With his bodyguards taking the brunt of it, Long Qian slumped to the floor weakly, covering his mouth with a pale face.
"2… 1."
The moment Yao Ran finished the countdown, the bodyguards shouted, "We're done!"
Seeing the empty food containers, Yao Ran nodded in satisfaction. "Well done."
She then waved her hand, putting away the empty containers and chopsticks.
Looking at Long Qian, she added, "You now know the consequences of provoking me. If you want to live longer, turn around when you see me in the future."
After giving him a cold warning glance, Yao Ran snapped her fingers. In the next second, the vines blocking the door dissolved into wood element energy and flew back into her body. She then shot Long Qian one last look before leaving the room.
The moment they no longer heard her footsteps, Long Qian and the bodyguards retched and tried to vomit out the food.
"Blergh!" Long Qian vomited until his stomach hurt, then collapsed onto the dirty floor, panting heavily.
Clenching his fists until his knuckles turned white, he glared at the broken door with hatred.
