BXBX NOVEL Chapter 169 - 108: Ability-Rush_2
“You.”
Wang Tao was straightforward.
Han Rui was at first startled, then her face instantly turned red with embarrassment.
“You—we agreed that once we’re back at the base, we’d each go our own way and not bother each other! How could you not keep your word?”
“Hmm? When did I say that?”
Wang Tao sprawled on the sofa, feigning confusion.
“On the bed—”
Han Rui quickly clamped her mouth shut.
She had just finished her shower, wearing her pajamas, her hair still somewhat damp; Wang Tao, seeing her like this, suddenly felt his appetite whetted.
But he was here to discuss serious matters, and only teased Han Rui verbally for a bit.
Han Rui glared at Wang Tao fiercely:
“Don’t mess around! Sun Weiguang will be back any minute now!”
Hearing this, Wang Tao’s eyes suddenly sparkled.
“That’s even more exciting!”
“…You’re a pervert!”
Han Rui was somewhat anxious.
After all, she was a rather traditional woman, and it was her home. Soon the man who was her husband in name, though they were no longer emotionally involved, would be back. Moreover, some new neighbors had moved in around her apartment; they all knew Han Rui and Sun Weiguang were husband and wife…
So if something happened between her and Wang Tao at her home, how could she face anyone after that!
Wang Tao felt he was indeed a bit perverted, but there were people more perverted than him—
Sun Weiguang had suddenly returned.
He walked in to see Wang Tao sitting on the sofa, his wife Han Rui, just out of the shower, with a flushed face, talking to Wang Tao.
This caused Sun Weiguang to react subconsciously:
“I… ahem, carry on! I just remembered I have something else to do and have to go out again…”
Having said this, Sun Weiguang promptly left, even thoughtfully closing the door behind him.
Wang Tao had not said a word when he saw Han Rui’s face change from red to pale.
“He, he’s at the door!”
II II
Darn it, Sun Weiguang really was a pervert!
Wang Tao felt inferior by comparison.
Han Rui was initially resistant to Wang Tao, but after seeing Sun Weiguang’s behavior, she became so angry she couldn’t even vent. She had been blind to have fallen for Sun Weiguang!
Han Rui walked straight over to Wang Tao and sat down heavily beside him.
Confused by her actions, Wang Tao pretended to be surprised:
“Eh? What are you doing?”
“You!”
Good heavens, it’s tit for tat!
And Han Rui wasn’t content with just verbal teasing; she straddled Wang Tao.
“Hiss—”
An hour later.
Wang Tao, having put his pants back on, spoke coldly:
“Women, just delay things.”
II II
A somewhat drained Han Rui wrapped her arms around Wang Tao’s neck, leaning on him without wanting to pay him any mind.
At that moment, the front door opened. Sun Weiguang walked in to see Han Rui, disheveled, sitting on Wang Tao’s lap. His face turned red, and he lowered his head as he went into his own room.
Wang Tao truly hadn’t expected Sun Weiguang to wait at the door for so long.
Han Rui didn’t even look at Sun Weiguang.
However… she seemed to be getting a taste of Sun Weiguang’s feelings, indeed quite the thrill…
“Alright, now that the distractions are taken care of, let’s talk about serious matters.”
Wang Tao patted Han Rui’s soft flesh, then took out an orange Crystal Core.
“This is…”
Han Rui’s tired spirit suddenly perked up. She had never seen such a beautiful Crystal Core!
“Rush Crystal Core, do you want it?”
Wang Tao said with a smile.
He had waited the whole day, but the kidnappers had not sent any message.
Everyone couldn’t just wait at the base endlessly, so the committee members decided that for the next few days, they would go out to hunt Elite Zombies in preparation for a potential upcoming battle!
Han Rui’s Perception Ability was very useful for Wang Tao, and he wanted to enhance her strength.
Originally, he planned to synthesize the Rush Crystal Core into an Epic one and keep it for himself as a backup. If he couldn’t find a Self-healing Crystal Core, then he could use the Rush Crystal Core instead.
But after thinking about it, Wang Tao felt it wasn’t necessary.
Considering the current situation, Charger Zombies weren’t that rare. At least Xiang Hongbin and his team had encountered them several times before. Wang Tao was certain he would come across them again in the future, and getting another Epic Crystal Core was very likely.
Moreover, Wang Tao now didn’t dare to merge a fourth type of Crystal Core, and having the Rush Crystal Core lying in his bag was a waste. Additionally, considering the potential for a battle with other Ability Users at any time… it was better to use the Rush Crystal Core to enhance someone’s strength.
Han Rui was both surprised and incredulous.
Wang Tao had explained to her about the quality of Crystal Cores, and this orange Crystal Core was one that would 100% successfully merge!
Did Wang Tao not need it for himself?
Han Rui suddenly recalled the time they encountered a Suicide Bombing Zombie, and Wang Tao had held her in his embrace.
“Could it be that he really likes me, and not just lusts after my body…”
Han Rui’s mind was in a bit of turmoil.
“Don’t you want it?”
Seeing Han Rui daydreaming, Wang Tao began to frown.
The reason he offered the Crystal Core to Han Rui, of course, was because she had always been his teammate; increasing Han Rui’s combat strength was to increase his own.
But if Han Rui didn’t want it, then he would give it to someone else; he felt either Xiang Hongbin or Wei Zhenguo were also good candidates.
“I want it!”
Han Rui quickly spoke up.
“Then open your mouth.”
Han Rui subconsciously opened her mouth, but there was something weird about this position.
Wang Tao, as if feeding her medicine, inserted the Crystal Core directly into Han Rui’s throat, causing her to cough.
Han Rui glared fiercely at Wang Tao, then quickly closed her eyes, carefully sensing the power of the Crystal Core.
A moment later.
“So sleepy-”
Han Rui felt she could hardly keep her eyes open, then she lay down on Wang Tao’s chest and fell asleep..
