Chapter 404: Chapter 161 Amplifying Human Weaknesses_2

Though he was determined to hold his ground and stuck firmly to his bottom line of wearing briefs, the depth of their interaction inevitably progressed significantly.

Adding to that, Lin Wang died sooner this time, half-avenging Chen Hanyu’s vendetta, thus easing her mindset a little. In this daily companionship, facing a man she admired and who was, in some sense, her benefactor, it was abnormal if her feelings did not shift slightly, influenced by the overall social atmosphere on Source Star.

Ren Zhong turned his face away guiltily, “Let’s not talk about this. The town’s hope of passing the census is still very slim. After overcoming this difficult time, when more than 20,000 people can survive and I can breathe a bit, then let’s talk. The people of Starfire Town have already suffered enough. Sigh.”

Chen Hanyu: “Why? Under such circumstances, all the more we should…”

Ren Zhong: “Then there would be no difference between man and beast.”

Revolution is not a dinner party; it requires one person to shoulder the lives of billions.

There can be romance in revolution.

But that romance should be a temporary harbor for oneself to rest when walking alone on the long arduous journey, exhausted to the extreme.

One must not indulge and sink into desires without accomplishing anything.

Otherwise, this harbor instantly becomes a gentle tomb for heroes.

This was a principle Ren Zhong learned before, also a teaching from his father.

It’s just that his father replaced revolution with career.

Ren Zhong wasn’t sure if this principle was absolutely correct, but he couldn’t refute it.

Chen Hanyu said no more and returned to being busy.

To spare her from indulging in random thoughts, Ren Zhong then inquired about the status of the micro army.

Speaking of this, Chen Hanyu’s expression became lively.

She marveled, “We used to think demolition masters had no combat power, and many didn’t understand why they were classified under combat professions. It was not until I came into contact with the micro army that I realized why. The micro army is practically equipment tailor-made for demolition masters. The parallel energy precision control we honed while dismantling Ruined Beasts seamlessly aligns with the control requirements of the micro army.”

“I’ve currently mastered the basic control techniques of the micro army. Once you recover and we go hunting again, we can conduct real combat drills.” Speaking of this, Chen Hanyu blushed slightly and said, “If considering only comprehensive combat capability, I am now… ahem, second only to you, Mr. Ren. No one else is my opponent.”

Ren Zhong nodded with satisfaction, “That’s how it should be. Your level has always been higher than Si Mawan’s. This is your true strength. But this equipment is still Si Mawan’s, after all, and I lied to Yang Bingzhong. Before my final showdown with him, don’t expose yourself easily; keep it as a trump card for emergency rescue of others.”

“Mm, I understand.”

…

Yang Bingzhong smiled and looked at Ren Zhong, saying, “As long as your injuries are stable. Thanks to Dr. Guo for the hard work.”

Dr. Guo from the county said, “It’s no trouble at all. Mr. Yang’s matters are my matters. Moreover, I just happened to pass by today, didn’t bring any equipment, just did a surface observation and listened to his heartbeat. Speaking of which, Dr. Sun Miao is indeed formidable; Captain Ren’s injuries have already stabilized completely, all that’s left is meticulous care.”

“It’s only right Sun Miao has such skill.”

“Then tomorrow I really won’t come back! Mr. Yang, you’re truly considerate of your subordinates. With such a good boss like you, the people of Starfire Town are truly lucky.”

After some mutual flattering between Dr. Guo and Yang Bingzhong, Dr. Guo received his consultation fee and leisurely left.

Ren Zhong, lying on the bed, also warmly bid farewell, “Take care, Dr. Guo.”

He also breathed a long sigh of relief.

Though Chen Hanyu’s disguise technique was exquisite, able to pass off the fake as real, he still had the drugs from the Star Origin Injection Liquid in his system at the moment.

If the doctor had used the equipment, Ren Zhong couldn’t guarantee he could get away with it.

After all others left, Yang Bingzhong pulled a chair to sit by the bedside.

He chatted idly with Ren Zhong for a while, then suddenly changed the subject.

“Ren Zhong, for a talent like you, the twenty-year long contract I previously proposed might have been a bit harsh. So, how about this? I’ll maintain the same conditions but shorten the contract to ten years. What do you think?”

“You should have some understanding of what kind of person I am. I can provide you with the most lenient conditions. Once we reach Chromium Carbon Town, you won’t have to take on any hunting tasks. I will also provide you with the best treatment in every aspect. I can also guarantee that I will never use this contract to restrict your personal freedom.”

Ren Zhong sighed, “Mr. Yang has always looked out for me. I know you are a good boss. I’m not someone who doesn’t appreciate kindness; my resolve to follow you is, of course, firm, but… sigh.”
