Apocalypse: My Sweetie Is Tough but Cute
Chapter 518 - Chapter 518 Chapter 519 The Old Fox Knows Without Asking

Chapter 518: Chapter 519: The Old Fox Knows Without Asking Chapter 518: Chapter 519: The Old Fox Knows Without Asking Yao Ke had gone to visit his nephew and returned to look for Tang Zelin, only to find his old comrade’s facial expression unusually bizarre.

It was as if he had been struck by shock, with an expression of utter astonishment on his face.

It wasn’t until he saw him approaching that the surprise on his face faded slightly.

Next to them stood Tang Zelin’s wife, Su Shu, and Yao Ke greeted her cheerfully. “Hello, sister-in-law.”

Su Shu smiled and said, “Hello, Captain Yao, how is Lu Tong doing?”

“He’s doing quite well, thank you.”

Su Shu politely smiled, turned to Tang Zelin, and said, “You two go ahead and talk; I’m going to check on how Grandfather and the others are doing.”

“Go ahead.”

After Su Shu left, Yao Ke shifted his gaze and walked to sit opposite Tang Zelin, both seating themselves on small stools. Yao Ke didn’t know from which pocket he pulled a handful of peanuts for Tang Zelin.

Tang Zelin took them, and while peeling them, asked, “Is there something?”

“Wow, you really are the sly Fox; I haven’t even started talking, and you already knew I needed something from you?”

After peeling three peanuts and throwing them in his mouth, Tang Zelin looked up, “Is it about those weapons you wanted to ask?”

Yao Ke clapped his hands, laughing, “Smart!”

“I thought so.”

“After we came down from the battlefield, we found that those Alien Humanoids you killed fought differently from before. Where did you get those weapons?”

“Found them inside.”

Yao Ke peeled a peanut: “Found them where? During the early days when there weren’t many Alien Humanoids, we also sent people in, and even robots to search, but we didn’t see anything.”

“Found them in a lab,” he paused, “one that was locked with a password.”

Yao Ke was surprised, “Then how did you open it?”

Uh… that.

It was Su Shu who opened the door at the time, how exactly she opened it? He wasn’t clear, but somehow, she did.

Suddenly, he seemed to realize that the secrets Su Shu carried weren’t just about rebirth. Why did it always feel like she had more to say?

Although he felt puzzled, he did not show it on his face, nor did he mention that it was Su Shu who opened the door.

“Not sure.”

He said he wasn’t sure, and Yao Ke didn’t suspect anything; he understood Tang Zelin well–what should be said is said, and what shouldn’t be said remained unknown even upon questioning.

The topic shifted back to the weapons, and Yao Ke said, “Can I take a look at the thing?”

“Take it, why borrow it.”

After all, if it was meant to combat the Aliens, the weapons should naturally be used on the real battlefield, and moreover, he knew that Yao Ke did not just want to simply take a look.

On the battlefield, any upgraded weapon, however minor its changes might be.

Even the smallest alteration could have a different impact.

The weapons they used could eliminate enemies without needing to strike the head.

If he had been Yao Ke, he would certainly have taken it back for further analysis as well.

Yao Ke walked away with the weapon.

Tang Zelin remained seated outside, the tranquility that followed the tension soothing to the soul.

Suddenly, a pair of hands rested on his shoulders.

Tang Zelin tilted his head slightly backward, “You’re back?”

“Mm, I’m back. Grandpa is doing well; fortunately, he didn’t sustain major injuries.”

Tang Zelin laughed, “That’s because he’s an old soldier, he knows how to avoid dangers in battle.”

“Mm.”

The air outside was cold, so the two of them went back inside.

That evening, they lay together and chatted.

They talked about things from a past life, unknown to Tang Zelin.

When Su Shu brought up painful memories, her voice choked; he then wrapped his arms around her, consoling, “It’s okay, look at me, I’m fine now, I’ll be careful.”
