Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot

Chapter 534: Chapter 229: I Like You a Little Bit_1

“Huh?”

Wang Tao doubted he had heard correctly.

He looked toward Lan Yulian.

Even though Lan Yulian was facing away from him, Wang Tao could see her ears were red.

Was this woman serious?

Before Wang Tao could further question it, he saw Lan Yulian suddenly turn around and embrace him tightly.

Her face was flushed, but she still raised her head, bravely meeting Wang Tao’s eyes.

“I am serious!”

No man doesn’t love a beautiful woman, especially when one willingly throws herself into his arms. Few men could remain calm under such circumstances.

Feeling the softness in his arms, Wang Tao didn’t feign restraint. He gently held Lan Yulian’s slender waist and looked into her dewy eyes, asking with a trace of curiosity:

“Why?”

Although Wang Tao admitted he might have some personal charm, Lan Yulian certainly wasn’t the type of woman to throw herself at a man. That made her initiative all the more surprising to him.

“I don’t want you to leave! The military base is too dangerous, going there is akin to a certain death! You might as well stay in Zijin Base, where you can make a greater impact! I could even give you the leader’s position; we could face the disaster together…”

Seeing the sincerity in Lan Yulian’s eyes, Wang Tao felt touched. Then, feigning disappointment, he said:

“Is that the only reason? You just want to keep me here to work for you!”

“…Alright, I admit it, I really have come to like you, but just a little bit.”

Lan Yulian was somewhat shy, but she didn’t hide it.

Now, in this post-apocalyptic world, sometimes you might not see many other survivors, let alone a suitable member of the opposite sex.

Lan Yulian thought meeting someone as excellent as Wang Tao was already lucky for her.

If Wang Tao chose to stay in Zijin Base, then she would get to spend more time with him, getting to know him better, and if they seemed compatible, then maybe they could start dating.

But now, Wang Tao had made it clear he was leaving, heading to such a dangerous place—it was no different than courting death. So she had no time to dilly-dally.

It wasn’t that she was head over heels in love with Wang Tao. After all, their interactions hadn’t been extensive, and proclaiming a life-and-death affection would be too far-fetched.

But there was definitely a romantic interest between a man and a woman. After all, Wang Tao was handsome and strong. Such an excellent man would be popular among women.

Emotionally speaking, she liked Wang Tao a bit and was willing to live with him. Rationally speaking, keeping Wang Tao in Zijin Base would undoubtedly bring endless benefits.

Before, Lan Yulian was somewhat hesitant, or perhaps she hadn’t even realized her own feelings.

But over the past few days, she had given it a lot of thought and talked a lot with Lu Yingfeng. Lu Yingfeng even occasionally encouraged her to pursue her happiness—such a good man shouldn’t be let go! Moreover, the conversation she just had with Wang Tao had been slightly laden with ambiguous undertones…

Therefore, Lan Yulian made her feelings clear to Wang Tao.

Of course, her stating she was willing to sleep with him was somewhat impulsive. She wasn’t a promiscuous woman; before this, she would never have spoken such words.

But the same phrase applies: it’s the end of the world, there’s no time for romance. Hesitation could mean more than just missed fate; it could mean lifelong separation!

Besides, who doesn’t have a moment of impulsiveness in their life? Maybe she’d regret her decision later, but regardless, she didn’t regret it now!

Wang Tao could feel Lan Yulian’s sincerity. Her wanting him to stay was true, as was her affection for him.

But Wang Tao shook his head.

“It’s impossible for me to stay.”

Lan Yulian felt a chill in her heart.

Did Wang Tao really have no feelings for her at all? Lan Yulian quickly said:

“I still owe you so much debt, and I can’t pay it back. But I can’t go back on my word. Since I can’t repay you now, I can only offer myself in place of the debt! You can’t leave!”

Lan Yulian’s eyes reddened, and mist started to form in them. Wang Tao’s blunt refusal made her feel somewhat wronged.

Wang Tao gently caressed her cheek and said:

“How about this. I must go to the military base; all my efforts thus far can’t go to waste. But I promise you, if the military base really is too dangerous, then I will come back for you. If the military base is safe, then I will still come back and take you there. What do you think?”

“…”

Lan Yulian didn’t speak and simply stood on tiptoe to kiss him.

…

The ability “Yin and Yang Balance” was very powerful.

The Mana of both Wang Tao and Lan Yulian quickly replenished to full.

Moreover, Wang Tao’s Mana limit even increased by 1000!

After the storm passed.

Lan Yulian lay in Wang Tao’s arms, tightly clutching his waist. She looked up at him, her eyes full of reluctance.

“Can you really not stay, even for me…?”

If before recovering Mana with Wang Tao, Lan Yulian was still somewhat uncertain about her feelings for him, maybe she really only liked him a little bit, then now… she felt she might truly have fallen in love with Wang Tao.

Wang Tao bent down and gently pecked Lan Yulian on the forehead.

He didn’t answer, but his stance was clear.

“Heartless man…”

Lan Yulian playfully punched Wang Tao’s chest a few times, then not feeling content, she bit him a few times.

Of course, she didn’t use much force.

Watching Lan Yulian rub against his chest like a kitten, Wang Tao gently stroked her smooth hair and back.
