19 zombies. In addition to granting Wang Tao 95 more HP, they also dropped 19 packages for him.

While Ding Yuqin was sorting out the supplies, Wang Tao was checking his spoils of war.

Some crafting materials he had seen before naturally dropped again, along with a few new ones.

[Gauze xi], [Cable xi], [Battery xi], [Electronic Component xl]…

He didn’t yet know what these crafting materials were for, but they could be used on their own, like gauze for stopping bleeding or batteries for discharging electricity.

However, he definitely wasn’t going to use them just yet, after all, he could store them in the Space Backpack, saving time and effort. If he really needed to, then he’d consider the items in the backpack.

Beyond these crafting materials, there was something he had never seen before.

[Security Uniform xl]

[Security Uniform: Durability +1, Tear Resistance +1]

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised by the security uniform.

Even clothes could drop? And with attributes to boot!

If he remembered correctly, this black security uniform had the same style as the one worn by the community security guards.

But the community guard was an old man, wearing loose-fitting security apparel, not so much protecting others as looking like he needed protection himself.

With just a thought, the security uniform appeared in Wang Tao’s hands.

The full set included a cap, jacket, trousers, and a pair of black high-top combat boots. It was designed to mimic a combat police uniform.

Wang Tao sized it up and it seemed about his size.

He didn’t care about whether it was a security uniform or not; he cared about the quality.

You have to say, attributes really make a difference. Normal clothes, he could tear apart directly, but not this security uniform, he couldn’t rip it at all at first try.

This must be because of the uniform’s attributes, the durability was alright, but the tear resistance was very impressive.

Wang Tao put it on and tried it out right away.

The uniform fit perfectly, was comfortable to move in… As long as one didn’t look at the badge on the shoulder, it very much resembled a police combat suit.

“Nice! I’ll wear you when going out from now on!”

Afternoon.

Wang Tao moved the diesel generator to the rooftop and started it after pouring the fuel.

Roarrr—

The diesel generator was pretty loud, but since it was on the sixth-floor rooftop, and Wang Tao had set up some noise insulation around it, it didn’t draw the zombies’ attention from the street.

The diesel generator couldn’t be running all the time; he just needed to fully charge the outdoor power supply. So, a bit of noise wasn’t an issue; he was going to turn it off at night anyway.

“Now I can take a hot shower tonight!”

It was April and still a bit cold, so a hot shower would be very comforting.

“Wang Tao, I’m going to head back now…”

After dinner, Ding Yuqin suddenly spoke.

“Huh? Head back for what? It’s almost time to rest; you want to go back and be alone in your room?”

Wang Tao asked, sounding a bit perplexed.

“I’m going home to get a change of clothes…”

Ding Yuqin gave Wang Tao an embarrassed glare, her face red.

“Oh— Wait, clothes? I’ll come with you.”

Wang Tao’s eyes gleamed, as if he had thought of something.

The two of them once again arrived at Apartment 502, and for some reason, Ding Yuqin felt somewhat nervous this time as she brought Wang Tao back to her place.

Wang Tao had clearly been here before…

“I’ll get the clothes; just wait for a moment.”

With that, Ding Yuqin went to the master bedroom alone.

Wang Tao didn’t follow her immediately; instead, he looked at the wedding photo on the wall.

“Previously, I thought sister-in-law’s figure in the photo was photoshopped, but it turns out, it’s completely real, no modification needed!”

Wang Tao then glanced at Zhao Yuan in the photo beside Ding Yuqin, murmuring in his mind:

“Brother Zhao, don’t worry. I promised I’d take care of sister-in-law, and I will keep my word!”

When Ding Yuqin hurried back with a few change of clothes, she saw Wang Tao looking at her wedding photo, and she suddenly felt a strange panic inside— like she was doing something wrong behind her husband’s back.

“Wang Tao, don’t look!”

Ding Yuqin hurriedly approached Wang Tao, extending her hand to block his line of sight.

“What’s the matter, sister-in-law? Feeling shy? You seemed quite proactive yesterday!”

Wang Tao said, smiling.

However, after he had spoken, he saw Ding Yuqin’s face turn a mixture of red and white, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes.

“Cough, sister-in-law, I was just joking with you.”

Wang Tao then remembered that Ding Yuqin and Zhao Yuan were very close, and that making such a joke at this time and place was indeed inappropriate.

Ding Yuqin bit her lip, looking at Wang Tao with complicated emotions, but in the end, she said nothing, only squatting on the ground with her hands covering her face, sobbing softly.

Women are indeed troublesome.

But soon after, Ding Yuqin stood up again; she wiped her tears, turned her head away, and said softly to Wang Tao:

‘Tve got the clothes, let’s go back.”

Wang Tao immediately frowned.

“Sister-in-law, are you mad at me?”

“No.”

Wang Tao suddenly reached out, grabbed Ding Yuqin, and hugged her in his arms. Ding Yuqin instinctively tried to resist, but she was clearly unable to do so.

“Still say you’re not mad!”

Wang Tao pinched Ding Yuqin’s cheek and, seeing she still did not react, moved his hand lower.

“…Wang Tao, please, let’s go… Can we go to your house… please…”

Ding Yuqin begged him with tear-filled eyes.

“Sister-in-law, do you feel like you’ve wronged Brother Zhao?”

Wang Tao stopped his actions and asked.

Ding Yuqin did not answer, but the tears in her eyes grew more abundant.

“Sister-in-law, go get my phone for me; it’s in my room.”

Wang Tao suddenly released her and said.

Ding Yuqin hurriedly broke free from Wang Tao’s embrace, and before long, she came back with his phone.

After handing the phone to Wang Tao, Ding Yuqin immediately retreated several steps, keeping her distance from him.

“Why are you standing so far away, sister-in-law? Come sit next to me.”

Wang Tao patted the sofa next to him, but Ding Yuqin was unmoved.

This made Wang Tao frown slightly.

“Sister-in-law, have you forgotten our agreement? You’re supposed to obey,” he said.

Reluctantly, Ding Yuqin walked over and sat down beside Wang Tao. He immediately wrapped his arm around her.

Ding Yuqin did not struggle, but instead started to speak amidst sobs:

“Wang Tao, I beg you, please stop humiliating me, spare me please. At your house, whatever you want me to do, I’ll do, but not here…”

Wang Tao didn’t listen to her and instead started scrolling through the chat history on his phone before handing it to Ding Yuqin.

“See for yourself.”

Ding Yuqin subconsciously looked.

The chat was with her husband, Zhao Yuan.

Zhao Yuan had written many messages asking Wang Tao to take care of Ding Yuqin. Wang Tao’s last reply read: Brother Zhao, I’m here. Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to take care of sister-in-law!

The timestamp on this reply was not from after the catastrophe, but from the days when doom had just begun!

After reading these messages, Ding Yuqin appeared bewildered.

Wang Tao took this opportunity to speak:

“Sister-in-law, do you think I’m taking care of you for your body? Am I that shallow? I’m doing it because of my promise!”

“Since I promised Brother Zhao, I will naturally follow through!”

“Plus, Brother Zhao has entrusted you to me, what does that tell you? Do I need to spell it out?”

“So, you haven’t wronged Brother Zhao. You both agreed to it. On the contrary, you have wronged me—”

“I’ve provided you with food, protection, and I even gave up the chance to go to the Survivor Base because you were at home…. I’ve done so much for you, sister-in-law, and you still give me attitude? Tell me, haven’t you wronged me?”
