“Alright!”
Han Rui nodded some happily. She liked hunting zombies with Wang Tao; it made her feel exceedingly safe.
“You just get some good rest today, conserve your energy.”
“Mm!”
Wang Tao returned to his own home, and Ding Yuqin, seeing the night-owl Wang Tao finally home, merely cast him a plaintive glance without daring to say much. She obediently went ahead to prepare lunch.
During the meal, Wang Tao mentioned he would go hunting zombies the next day, and Ding Yuqin suddenly spoke up:
“Wang Tao, what if… you take me with you tomorrow?”
“Older sister-in-law wants to go hunt zombies with me?”
Wang Tao was somewhat surprised.
“Mm!” Ding Yuqin nodded and then said somewhat uncertainly, “I can… help you now, right?”
She now had an HP of one thousand, and although she still lacked fighting capabilities, her physical condition had greatly improved, and she could help Wang Tao carry his bag. In case of danger, she also had the ability to escape on her own.
Wang Tao, seeing the resolute look in Ding Yuqin’s eyes, smiled and said:
“It’s good that you have this intention, big sis-in-law, but I might be hunting some very dangerous zombies, and you following me would not be of any use.” Wang Tao spoke bluntly.
Ding Yuqin’s face fell at once. It had taken a great deal of courage for her to decide to go out with Wang Tao, and in the end, Wang Tao still viewed her as a burden.
She didn’t blame Wang Tao; she blamed her own uselessness.
Seeing the look on Ding Yuqin’s face, Wang Tao immediately reached out to touch her cheek, and she instinctively tilted her head and rubbed her little face against Wang Tao’s hand.
“Here’s what we’ll do, 1’11 arrange for someone to go out with you later. You start by hunting Ordinary zombies. With your current physical condition, hunting Ordinary zombies wouldn’t be difficult at all, but you just lack experience… You need to gain some more experience…”
“Alright!”
After a moment of hesitation, Ding Yuqin still nodded firmly.
Although Wang Tao wasn’t personally taking her, the person he would arrange was definitely reliable and wouldn’t let her down.
Ding Yuqin now had a strong sense of crisis. She did not know whether Wang Tao loved her, but she knew that what probably attracted Wang Tao to her was, most likely, her body.
No matter how much you like something, eventually you’ll get tired of it. Besides, she was no longer a young girl; as she got older, her attractiveness would fade.
If Wang Tao eventually stopped liking her, what would she do? She didn’t want to lose Wang Tao, and it wasn’t just about seeking his protection; she felt that now, both physically and emotionally, she was somewhat unable to be without Wang Tao…
Though beautiful, the world was full of beautiful people. If Wang Tao liked her just for her looks, he could just as easily like someone else for their looks… Therefore, she had to make herself useful and not be despised by Wang Tao!
Although Wang Tao did not know Ding Yuqin’s exact thoughts, based on her demeanor, he could guess some of it.
After the meal, Wang Tao beckoned, and Ding Yuqin immediately came to Wang Tao’s side very sensibly and then sat on his thigh.
Wang Tao liked Ding Yuqin’s obedience and sensibility; sometimes a glance or a gesture from him was all it took for Ding Yuqin to know what he wanted to do.
Of course, what Wang Tao liked even more was Ding Yuqin’s HP-restoring ability. With that ability, no one could replace Ding Yuqin.
Although Wang Tao didn’t use the HP-restoring ability often—he generally didn’t allow himself to be in dire situations with low HP—there’s always the unexpected. He might not use it, but he couldn’t be without it…
In the afternoon.
Wang Tao found Gao Hua.
“Big Brother, what can I do for you?”
This morning, Gao Hua was appointed by the committee as the head of the Resource Department. It was a position with real power, previously held by other committee members.
Gao Hua had suddenly become a core member of the base.
But he reminded himself, no matter his position, even if he became a committee member, he must always treat Wang Tao with respect.
He always had a keen eye for people, and since meeting Wang Tao, his judgment of Wang Tao had never been wrong.
Thus, he would steadfastly hold on to his belief—cling tightly to Wang Tao’s coattails!
“Come out with me for a bit later.”
Wang Tao looked at Gao Hua, dapper but full of vitality, and said.
“Alright!” ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Gao Hua did not ask any questions and immediately handed off his work, appearing in front of Wang Tao again in less than a minute.
“Big Brother, I’m ready!”
“Mm, get in the car.”
Wang Tao took Gao Hua, and they left the base.
Then they stopped the car not far from a group of zombies.
“Big Brother, are we…”
Although Gao Hua didn’t want to ask, the sight of so many zombies had him somewhat panicked.
“Do you want to become stronger?”
Wang Tao suddenly asked.
“I do!”
Gao Hua replied without hesitation.
“That’s right.” Wang Tao handed him a sharpened steel pipe, “You go kill a zombie for me to see.”
“…Yes!”
Cold sweat beaded on Gao Hua’s forehead.
Not to mention that he wasn’t sure whether he could handle a zombie, even if he could, there were over a dozen zombies here! How could he possibly defeat them?
But this was an order from his Big Brother, and he dared not disobey. Since he had already decided to cling to Wang Tao’s coattails, he needed to see it through—half measures were unacceptable!
Gao Hua gripped the steel pipe tightly and bravely headed towards the zombies.
His target was a petite female zombie. Females naturally had less strength, and though it increased after turning into a zombie, surely it wasn’t as strong as a male zombie. Choosing her was a more suitable choice..
