[Sister Yan Zhi, thank you today. My mom made sweet and sour ribs, and I sent some up. They are also placed outside the door.]

[Just heat it up in the microwave when eating.]

[Thank you, Qianqian, and please also thank Aunt Wu for me.]

[Sorry, I slept so deeply that I didn't hear you knocking 「Embarrassed」「Embarrassed」]

[Sister, I'm awake now, don't worry, go have dinner quickly.]

After replying to Zhang Qian's message, Gu Yanzhi continued to look. The remaining messages were basically from Building 10's group chat, mainly thanking Gu Yanzhi's family for their help today. Fortunately, Gu Yanzhi had reminded them and provided a boat, so they from Building 10 went out early and managed to buy a boat. Later, when they went out to help, several families in the community went out too late, ran to several places, and were unable to buy a boat.

Then, families from Building 11 and Building 16 also sent over some homemade food and placed it at Gu Yanzhi's doorstep. Since the friend request hadn't passed yet, they posted the message and pictures in the group chat, reminding Gu Yanzhi's family to remember to pick them up.

After reading the messages, Gu Yanzhi thanked everyone in the group chat and then left the group. She found indeed there were two friend requests and clicked approve on each one.

After finishing these tasks, Gu Yanzhi brought in the items placed outside the door into the room.

It must be said, Aunt Wu's culinary skills are really good. Although the sweet and sour ribs had cooled down, when Gu Yanzhi lifted the lid of the takeaway box, she still smelled a rich fragrance.

She first put the sweet and sour ribs in the microwave to heat them up and then Gu Yanzhi looked at the other food sent by the two families. What came from the 16th floor was Gao Zhi's mom's personally pickled salted cucumbers. Gu Yanzhi tried one, finding them neither too salty nor bland, refreshing and crunchy. Gu Yanzhi felt that she could even finish this plate of small salted cucumbers on her own without any rice.

Next were the homemade cookies from Zhuang Nanzhi of the 11th floor. Gu Yanzhi didn't expect the rather shy-looking boy to have such skills. There were cookies of several shapes, little frogs, pandas, and bunnies, each very lifelike, rich in milky flavor, and quite delicious.

In a while, the sweet and sour ribs were heated up. Just as Gu Yanzhi opened the microwave's lid, a voice came from behind.

Gu Yanlin yawned as he came out of his room, "Sis, what delicious food have you made?"

He too was awoken by hunger, having smelled such tempting aroma in his sleep and couldn't continue sleeping.

"Qianqian's family sent over sweet and sour ribs," Gu Yanzhi placed the plate of sweet and sour ribs on the dining table, then took out oyster sauce lettuce, dry pot potato slices, and three boxes of rice from storage, along with Gao Zhi's mom's salted cucumbers. This was their dinner for tonight.

"You're awake too? Great, come eat."

Gu Yanzhi was just about to go wake up Song Zhao when she heard the bedroom door. Song Zhao too had been woken up by hunger. Waking up without seeing Gu Yanzhi, he didn't linger in bed and just directly got up.

The three of them devoured the food on the table voraciously, leaving nothing behind and finally sat back satisfied with a big burp.

"Sis, brother-in-law, someone wants to buy our boat."

Gu Yanlin was fiddling with his phone when suddenly a stranger sent him a friend request. Glancing at it, he saw the person was from the community group chat and didn't think much before accepting.

The first message from this person was [Bro, are you selling your boat?]

Gu Yanlin directly replied [Not selling.]

Then, the person started with a sob story [Bro, please help me out, I've got elderly parents and a young child at home, and we don't have much food stocked up. When it was our turn to go out today, there were no boats left to buy outside. You have many boats, please sell me one.]

[Bro, please, you wouldn't let my 90-year-old father, elderly mother, and the hungry three-year-old child starve. We can manage being a little hungry, but they can't. Please, I don't have a boat to fetch food for them.]

Gu Yanlin felt a little bad and was just about to reply when he suddenly came to his senses, deciding it might be better to ask his sister and brother-in-law first.

"Just block him, probably a scammer," Gu Yanzhi was about to grab Gu Yanlin's phone to find out more, when, in Building 10's group chat, Liu Sisi posted a message.

[Everyone stay alert, this person is a scammer]

[I just gave him the boat, then instantly saw it on someone else's social media.]

[Social media screenshot:

Boats for sale, boats for sale, with such a flood outside, a single step is hard without a boat. Boats for sale at the only open outdoor supplies store in C city. First come, first served, highest bidder takes it.

[This boat is mine, I had specifically marked it in the afternoon before going out to avoid mix-ups.]

Following this, Liu Sisi circled the boat in her own home in the social media picture and sent it out.

[He has already blocked me]

[Damn, this person added me too, exactly the same script, I was just about to agree, didn't realize he's a reseller]

[Chat screenshot]

[OMG, he added me too +1]

[Me too...]

After reading the group chat messages, Gu Yanlin quietly sent, "Seems he hasn't spared any of the four families in our building, all targeted by the reseller."

[Liu Sisi: I'm going to expose this person in the community group chat, hope people from our community won't fall for his trick.] After posting this, Liu Sisi then sent the message to the community group chat, urging everyone to beware of this suspected scamming reseller.
