Chapter 129: Chapter 95 Superiority !, Translator: 549690339, “Go to Yingying’s place!”, Only in Ou Yingying’s company could he find the self-confidence of being a man., The next day., Wang Tao looked at his visibly improved Flying Axe Throwing Technique and was quite satisfied with himself., His Body Strengthening had a Hidden Ability that wasn’t limited to ordinary exercises; practices like throwing objects also received certain enhancements., After training for this period, he wouldn’t claim to hit the mark every time, but at least his mid and short-range throws were accurate. Gone were the embarrassing moments when he aimed for the leg but hit the hand instead., Now he could barely claim to know how to use the Flying Axe., “However, as good as the Flying Axe is, I feel like it still falls short compared to Bow and Arrows…”, He had a limited number of Firefighter Axes, and he couldn’t possibly carry too many at once. But with Bow and Arrows, it was different – at least he could carry a quiver of arrows, and it should be more energy-efficient., As for the lethality, modern Bow and Arrows should not be lacking. Especially the one Sun Weiguang mentioned that his friend had, which was quite expensive; it should be of good quality., “I’ll see when I have time to go there in the next couple of days…”, Wang Tao mused, stroking his chin., The place Sun Weiguang had talked about was slightly far from the base, but it was only about five or six kilometers. The distance from Happy Community to Shuize Base was about the same, and he had arrived successfully. For him, this distance was certainly dangerous, but where wasn’t dangerous in this post-apocalyptic world? As long as it wasn’t some particularly lethal danger, it would be fine., Wang Tao continued to practice the Flying Axe at home; he planned to train for one more day. Tomorrow, he could go out and test his skill., Evening., Han Rui arrived at Wang Tao’s place as promised., She actually didn’t want to come because she didn’t know how to face Wang Tao., Even though it was all Sun Weiguang’s doing and Wang Tao didn’t do it intentionally, the fact was that it had happened. She and Wang Tao had indeed become intimate, and her husband was listening right outside the door… Every time she thought about it, she felt so ashamed she wished she could crawl into a hole!, But she wanted to know who had taken those videos., As for the thought of taking the blame for Sun Weiguang, Han Rui was suddenly wavering again., She had always known Sun Weiguang’s flaws but had still been willing to accommodate him. After all, everyone has flaws; she had hers too. They were unavoidable. And they were husband and wife, meant to spend the rest of their lives together. If she couldn’t tolerate each other’s flaws, their future together wouldn’t work out., But she never expected that after doing so much for Sun Weiguang, even being willing to leave the base to give him a better life, he would offer her up to another man for the sake of his own future!, Han Rui was truly disappointed and angry, yet she didn’t know how to deal with Sun Weiguang. She had always been doing good deeds and the right things for so many years, but she had never encountered such betrayal by someone so close, and she didn’t know how to resolve it…, “You’re here, take a seat.”, Wang Tao invited Han Rui to sit opposite him., Han Rui had always been a very confident person, not dodging eye contact even in front of council members, but now, let alone meeting Wang Tao’s gaze, she hardly dared to voluntarily look at him., Her feelings for Wang Tao were complicated., He had first been her savior, for which she felt profound gratitude; later, fighting alongside him, she saw him as a teammate she could rely on with her back turned; now, after their unexpected intimate encounter, she… really didn’t know what to do, but strangely, she didn’t dislike Wang Tao…, “How did you resolve it?”, Wang Tao asked with some curiosity., His question about resolution naturally referred to the incident of Sun Weiguang drugging her., “I, I haven’t spoken to him at all…”, Han Rui started, somewhat awkwardly., She had never run away from anything before, thinking evasion was shameful. But now, she had chosen to evade, and although evasion might be shameful, it really worked…, “Not speaking to him? That’s it?”, Wang Tao was somewhat speechless. Was this her plan for handling it herself?, “…” Wang Tao’s counter-question made Han Rui feel even more awkward. In an attempt to alleviate the awkwardness, she quickly changed the subject, “That person… did they come?”, Instead of answering directly, Wang Tao said,, “Is what you told me yesterday true? Did you really frame two teammates and then it was caught on camera?”, “…Yes.”, Han Rui replied, her head lowered., “Look up at me.”, Wang Tao commanded abruptly., Han Rui instinctively lifted her head, and those slightly swollen eyes looked at Wang Tao. Then, unexpectedly, she noticed that Wang Tao seemed handsomer than she remembered., But after barely three seconds, Han Rui avoided his gaze again., “I’m going to ask you again, is everything you told me yesterday true? Don’t rush your answer, take your time to think about what has happened recently… then look into my eyes and answer me. We’ve been through life and death together, and I don’t want to be deceived.”, Han Rui seemed torn, clenching and unclenching her small fists. Meanwhile, Wang Tao waited quietly, not urging her in any way., After what seemed like a long time, Han Rui suddenly took a deep breath, seeming to collapse inward, but feeling much more relaxed at the same time., She lifted her head, bravely met Wang Tao’s eyes, and then began apologetically:
