Chapter 351 - 352 Thick-skinned
Xu Ying listened to the murmurs of strangers with pride, her head held high. Her man was strong—this little bit of stuff was nothing to him; even a few hundred more pounds wouldn’t be a problem.
Huo Chen carried the stuff and led Xu Ying to the dormitory. When they arrived, there wasn’t a single person there yet.
Xu Ying quickly claimed a bed by the window, next to the balcony. She chose the bottom bunk because climbing up and down to the top bunk was too much of a hassle.
After choosing their beds, the couple brought water to start cleaning the bunk. The beds in the school hadn’t been used in a long time and were all covered in dust.
They wiped for half an hour before finally getting it clean.
After spreading out the bedding, Xu Ying found a rope and tied it to both ends of the bed, fashioning two curtains that could be drawn apart.
It perfectly shielded the inside of the bed.
No sooner had Xu Ying tidied up her bed and arranged her things on the table than other students started arriving one after another.
"You’re already settled in. I thought I came early enough, but you got here even earlier," a crisp-looking girl said as she entered, dragging a burlap bag into the room.
A plainly dressed man followed her; he looked honest and straightforward, trailing behind the woman into the dorm.
