the spot. Although this bracelet wasn't very expensive, for their wages, they could afford it if they gritted their teeth. But this was the first time they had been given a gift by a customer!"No, no,..."Woooo~ What should I do~ Our parents and children are still at home!"

A mournful, sobbing voice came from the kitchen in the distance.

Followed by a clatter of pots and pans and the comforting voices of men.

Because it wasn't mealtime, only four people, including Ruan Soft, were dining at the small restaurant.

In this situation, the sounds coming from the kitchen were especially clear.

When everyone heard the sound from the kitchen, they stopped talking and looked curiously towards it.

What's wrong What happened The boss lady was just smiling a moment ago, why is she suddenly crying

Before they could figure it out, the boss came out of the kitchen, carrying a dish in his hand and walking towards their table.

"Sorry, sorry about that. I apologize for the inconvenience to your meal." The boss, with bloodshot eyes and an awkward smile, apologized.

Several people at the table, seeing their boss who seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, shook their heads, indicating they didn't care.

But inside, he was a little puzzled. What happened Just now, the boss was still smiling, how come he now looked like he had several mountains on his shoulders

The boss, with an unnatural smirk on his lips, wanted to laugh but it seemed more like crying. He stood aside, watching the four of them, his mouth opening and closing, struggling for a moment before finally forcing himself to speak in a choked voice.

"Alright everyone, my family's situation is a bit special. The remaining dishes... we can't make them for you. So for this meal, how about I just treat you all"

As he spoke, the boss's eyes filled with tears that finally overflowed.

Before the tears could even run down her cheeks, they were wiped away by a rough hand on her sun-weathered face.

Seeing this situation, the four members of Ruan Soft knew that something big must have happened. The general manager glanced at Ruan Soft sitting opposite him and asked with his eyes.

Just as Ruan Ruann was about to speak, she was interrupted by the sudden system notification sound.

System Task: Help Cai Xian Liu Min couple successfully win the portable research laboratory, with no penalty for failure.

In the lab! Or on-the-go, thinking about another reason for her leave of absence, Ruan's eyes darkened.

With my own lab, no one can steal my research results anymore, and things from before won't happen again.

However, Cai Xian Liu Min Who are they Are they the owner and owner of this restaurant Ruan Rou questioned these two unfamiliar names.

"Oh, right! It's this couple. Host, hurry up and help them!" Yuanbao said in the consciousness space.

Ruan Ran said that she understood, then looking at the man in front of her who was wiping away tears and trying to be strong, she spoke.

"Boss, what's wrong What happened Do you need help"

The boss looked at the four people at the dinner table with worry etched on their faces, tears welling up in his eyes. His heart warmed, but when he thought about what had happened, a wave of helplessness washed over him again.

"Thank you for your kindness, but you can't help. There was a major earthquake at my hometown."

"My parents-in-law, my wife and I's children are all there. We can't contact them now, so we are a little worried."

After finishing, he twitched the corners of his mouth at the four people, knowing in his heart that this was a family matter and bringing it up would only inconvenience the guests during their meal.

"It's okay, you guys eat first. I'll go back to the kitchen first."

After finishing his words, he turned and walked toward the kitchen, followed by his wife. He took out his phone and started calling familiar people back home.

The four people at the table never expected that this was the reason.

With a complicated expression, looking at the colorful and delicious dishes on the table, I suddenly lost my appetite.

Ruan Ran cried out in his heart, "Yuan Bao! Yuan Bao! Come out quickly! Earthquake! How do I solve this earthquake!"

And with an earthquake this big, who knows if their family and friends are...

Ruanruan said she couldn't bear it either, although she didn't want to think that way, natural disasters are merciless, this is reality.

"I'm not God, and I don't have a time machine. Isn't this task asking too much of me!"

"You soft host ~ Calm down, calm down. Since the system has published this task, it means you are capable of completing it."

"And most of the tasks released by this system will not endanger the host's life!"

"Yuánbǎo soothed in the space of consciousness, Ruanruǎn was his hard-earned precious host. How could he let her get into trouble"

But when Ruan Soft heard this, her eyes flashed slightly. So their parents and children are temporarily safe

Reassured by the affirmative answer, Ruan softened and her anxieties subsided. Looking at the food on the table, she felt a renewed appetite and picked up her chopsticks to begin eating.

The other three people at the table, seeing Ruan soften her chopsticks, also picked up their own. They ate one bite at a time.

Seeing Ruan soft eat with such an appetite, my heart felt a bit complicated for a moment.

Ruan Ran could certainly feel the gazes projected upon them, but didn't explain, just focused on eating their meal. After all, they had to eat before doing anything else, right

But to be honest, this dish is actually really delicious!

For a moment, the table fell silent. Everyone ate their meals in solemn silence, only occasionally punctuated by stifled sobs from the direction of the kitchen.

"Hey, I just saw you looking at your phone. Where did the earthquake happen"

Ruan softened his bite and suddenly looked at Liu Yiduo, who seemed distracted beside him, and asked.

Liu Yiduo was still worrying about going again, and feeling a little disappointed that she didn't care about the pretty young lady, when she suddenly heard Ruan Rou beside her ask her.

He quickly came to his senses and, remembering the message he had just seen on his phone, blurted out a place name.

"H city's from Shan county."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This was a rather unfamiliar place, Ruan Ru thought to herself, as she pulled out her phone and opened the maps app to search for it.

It would take seventeen or eighteen hours to drive there, and the golden rescue time is only seventy-two hours.

We're halfway through and it's already taking up a quarter of the time, I'm starting to feel a bit pressed for time.

After some thought, Ruan Ran directly bought the earliest flight to City H.

Then I told Director Liu about the situation. At first, Director Liu didn't agree with Ruan Rou going back again.

After much persuasion from Ruan, Director Liu hesitated for a while but was eventually convinced.

“I see that everyone isn't in the mood to eat. I know everyone is worried about the situation in the disaster area, so I want to ask you all to do something for me.”

Ruan Ruan looked at the few people sitting by the table and said.

When everyone heard what Ruan Rou said, they all turned their eyes to her at once, their gazes filled with anticipation.

"That's right, I have something very important to do later."

"I don't have time to shop for supplies, so I was wondering if you would be willing to help purchase some items needed in the disaster area" with pride. It seems like he finally let out a breath of relief."Hahahahahaha! You still know how to speak!""Well, then we can just ignore it.""Given Y country's track record, they would probably tem...
