Chapter 1737: Chapter 736: Killing

When Wang Tao returned to the villa, he found Ding Yuqin awake, staring blankly out the window.

"Why don’t you sleep a little longer?"

Wang Tao’s voice brought Ding Yuqin back to reality. Her mental state was still not very good, her eyes red, as if she had cried again after waking up.

Seeing Wang Tao return, she instinctively walked over and said softly:

"I can’t sleep. Every time I close my eyes, it’s like seeing Zhao Yuan’s ferocious face rushing toward me..."

Wang Tao had fused quite a few Crystal Cores for her. Although she hadn’t yet fused a Superpower Crystal Core and wasn’t considered an Ability User, her physical condition was far beyond that of ordinary people. In terms of sleep, she didn’t need as much as ordinary people to recover her energy.

"It’s okay, don’t be afraid."

Wang Tao reached out and embraced her, and she didn’t refuse. Only by his side could she feel at ease.

At that moment, Jiang Shixue came over and whispered:

"Brother, what would you like for dinner?"

Usually, the food at home was prepared by Ding Yuqin, after all, she was considered a chef. But today, Ding Yuqin was in a bad mood, so none of the girls wanted to disturb her. However, their cooking skills were fairly average; it would be a waste if they spoiled the ingredients. Seeing Wang Tao return, they quickly had Jiang Shixue talk to him.

"I’ll do it!"

Only then did Ding Yuqin react, realizing she had forgotten to make dinner for Wang Tao.

Wang Tao provided her with food, a place to stay, personal safety, and even helped her fuse Crystal Cores to enhance her strength... Yet she had forgotten this small task that she could easily do, which made Ding Yuqin feel a bit guilty.

"Let’s do it together."

Wang Tao smiled and took her little hand, heading to the kitchen together.

Han Rui and Li Qiuyu were both troubled in the kitchen. There was plenty of food, but neither of them knew how to cook well! They didn’t mind themselves, as they were fine with anything edible, but since Wang Tao was home, they couldn’t let him eat just anything.

Seeing Wang Tao and Ding Yuqin coming over together, the two girls immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, seeing Wang Tao holding Ding Yuqin’s hand with such intimacy, the two girls’ eyes gleamed, each with thoughts of their own.

Before long, a sumptuous dinner was ready. Ding Yuqin’s mood improved considerably, as if she had forgotten those things, at least while cooking with Wang Tao and the others, not having messy thoughts in her mind.

"It’s getting late, let’s all rest early. I will go out tomorrow morning."

Wang Tao stood up and spoke to everyone.

"Can I go with you?"

Upon hearing about the outing, Jiang Shixue’s eyes lit up and she raised her hand eagerly.

Wang Tao shook his head:

"No, tomorrow I’m going to hunt that Gorilla zombie. It’s probably the strongest Level Two zombie, and while I’m fine alone, taking any of you might be dangerous."

The Gorilla zombie was too large in size, with a wide attack range and long attack distance. Apart from Wang Tao, others might not be able to dodge its attacks. For safety’s sake, Wang Tao didn’t plan to take them.

"Alright then..."

Jiang Shixue was a bit disappointed but didn’t push further. She knew Wang Tao meant well. When he said it was dangerous, it truly could be life-threatening.

"Be careful!"

The girls were immediately concerned.

"I will."

Waving to the girls, Wang Tao returned to his room.

Just after freshening up, he heard a knock on the door. Opening it, he found Ding Yuqin in pajamas, hugging a pillow.

"Sister-in-law, what’s up?"

"I... I’m scared to sleep alone..."

Ding Yuqin dared not meet Wang Tao’s eyes, knowing the reason was quite flimsy.

"Alright, come in then."

Wang Tao chuckled and didn’t expose her.

There was only one large bed in his room. Wang Tao lay on the bed, then looked at Ding Yuqin.

Feeling somewhat nervous, Ding Yuqin had already mustered the courage to come, so she wouldn’t back down now. She lowered her head slightly and moved to the other side of the bed, and hesitantly lay down next to Wang Tao.

Wang Tao then reached out, pulling her into his arms amidst her brief exclamation.

Feeling Wang Tao’s solid chest, Ding Yuqin was shy but also experienced a sense of unprecedented safety.

However, she soon felt a pair of big hands acting a bit unruly. Instinctively, Ding Yuqin grabbed Wang Tao’s hand and whispered:

"Wang Tao, I’m afraid it might affect your battle tomorrow..."

In fact, when she came to seek Wang Tao, she hadn’t thought much about it. Now, suddenly remembering, Wang Tao had a zombie hunt tomorrow, and if too much energy was consumed tonight, wouldn’t it affect the battle tomorrow? This immediately made Ding Yuqin regret having not considered carefully.

And upon hearing this, Wang Tao couldn’t help but smile.

"Underestimating me, aren’t you?"

The enticing prospect had no reason to be refused. With his current strength, he wasn’t worried that such enjoyable activities would deplete his energy.

"..."

Feeling Wang Tao’s intense gaze and confident demeanor, Ding Yuqin’s body seemed to heat up. She closed her eyes, silently shedding her pajamas...

Next day.

Wang Tao woke early, refreshed and full of energy, not at all looking like he had engaged in any intense activities.

Ding Yuqin was still asleep, but she had been curled up next to Wang Tao. Despite his quiet movements, she was woken up by him rising. Recalling last night’s frenzy, her face became a little flushed.

"You can sleep a little longer."

Wang Tao leaned down and kissed her forehead.

Ding Yuqin suddenly felt that it had never been this sweet, even when watching romance dramas.
