Chapter 285: We're All Men, What's There to Fear (Please Subscribe)_1

The three from Qian Yu all looked at the two beds, not knowing how to broach the subject...

After a while, it was Huo Yuhao who raised his eyebrows and took the initiative to suggest, "How about we rotate between the three of us? Two sleep on the beds, one on the floor."

Wang Dong frowned slightly and decidedly rejected Huo Yuhao's suggestion, "I'm not sleeping on the floor. If anyone will, it should be you!"

Huo Yuhao's face was full of a bitter smile as he said, "Then what should we do? Surely we can't all squeeze together. Qian Yu, do you have any ideas?"

Qian Yu shook his head, his face showing helplessness as he said, "I don't have one either. If Wang Dong doesn't want to sleep on the floor, it wouldn't be fair however we arrange it. Might as well all sleep together!"

What could he do? He himself didn't really mind, but he also couldn't always sleep on the floor...

Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth and glanced at Wang Dong, who seemed unconcerned, and said offhandedly, "Qian Yu, if Wang Dong doesn't want to sleep on the floor, then it seems we two will have to take turns!"

Given that he had carried him for a hundred laps at Shrek Academy, a little bit of discomfort was nothing...

If Qian Yu didn't agree, he had already decided to sleep on the floor himself...

Qian Yu, who was standing nearby, heard this and surprisingly nodded, "That works! After all, sleeping too much doesn't do any good. Sleeping on the floor even facilitates cultivation."

After all, cultivating and sleeping were almost similar, both relieving fatigue and stress...

Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief internally, "Then it's settled. Since I made the suggestion, you can sleep on the bed first tonight."

Qian Yu wasn't pretentious, "Okay!"

Meanwhile, Wang Dong, hearing their conversation, looked somewhat embarrassed, but there was no way he was going to sleep on the floor!

Because...

After that, Qian Yu walked over to the lantern-shaped soul guidance device and gently infused Soul Power to extinguish the wick...

The entire dormitory was suddenly plunged into darkness...

Having done this, Qian Yu took off his clothes and went straight to bed, saying indifferently, "It's already very late! Let's rest."

Wang Dong was taken aback for a moment, "Qian Yu? Why are you taking off your clothes?"

In a daze, Qian Yu replied, "I just took off my outer garments and pants, go to sleep. We still need to clean before class tomorrow!"

Hearing that Qian Yu had only taken off his outer garments and pants, Wang Dong finally calmed down...

But in the next moment, he was puzzled again, "Qian Yu, what you just mentioned about cleaning... what's that about?"

Weren't they here to study at Shrek Academy?

Huo Yuhao, who had not fallen asleep on the floor, spoke up, "Because both Qian Yu and I don't have any money, we're quite poor! Barely considered working-study students, otherwise we have no source of income!"

Wang Dong smacked his lips, with a look of disdain, "Cleaning in public, don't you feel ashamed?"

Huo Yuhao retorted, "Ashamed? Why would I feel ashamed? At least it's money earned on my own."

Qian Yu leisurely said, "Shame is still better than starving to death."

Feeling that the two were beyond reason, Wang Dong muttered under his breath, "Forget it, there's no point talking to you. If I had known, I would have taken more money from the sect."

...

Night fell, and the continuous noise of water sounded...

Qian Yu, who was on the bed, woke up slightly and instinctively looked towards Wang Dong next to him...

However, he saw no sign of anyone nearby...

Qian Yu whispered, "Wang Dong?"

No one responded to him...

He then slowly got up, scanning the surroundings with his gaze...

Huo Yuhao on the floor obviously was still fast asleep...

But when Qian Yu noticed the white light emanating from inside the bathroom, he calmly walked over...

He knocked on the door gently, "Wang Dong, are you in there?"

As the knocking sound echoed, the water noise from inside the bathroom gradually subsided, but no one answered him...

Full of curiosity, Qian Yu said, "If there's no one inside, then I'm coming in."

"If Wang Dong wanted to bathe, couldn't he have just done it when he got back?"

"Why wait until the dead of night?"

The next moment, a slightly panicked voice came from the bathroom, "Don't! Don't come in! I'm bathing!"

Qian Yu's mouth twitched twice as he said speechlessly, "We're all boys, what's there to be afraid of, I'm coming in!"

He wasn't a girl, acting so coy...

Having said that, he pushed the door open!

Upon hearing the door open, Wang Dong's pupils shrunk sharply as he hurriedly turned his back, then clutched the handkerchief and wrapped it around his chest and thighs…

Qian Yu's gaze traveled downward, and he couldn't help but swallow as he saw Wang Dong's snow-white back, followed by those long, smooth legs that looked somewhat exquisite under the light—not at all like a boy's legs!

With his back turned, Wang Dong could feel Qian Yu's eyes sweeping over his body, his ears tinged with a shade of red...

Then, in a voice urgent with panic, he said, "Qian Yu! What are you looking at? Get out now!"

Qian Yu squinted his eyes and said, "What's wrong... Wang Dong, why are you facing away? We are all boys, you can tell me if there's anything wrong."

"There's nothing wrong! Just get out already!!"

No sooner had Wang Dong blurted this out than he realized his tone might arouse suspicion, and he gritted his teeth to explain, "I... I just don't like being watched while I bathe..."

"Alright, then take your time," Qian Yu muttered after hearing this and then closed the door…

Back in his bed, Qian Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows as his mind replayed that incredibly tantalizing scene...

He thought to himself, "For a boy, Wang Dong's skin is so delicate and fair; could he be one of those Noble Scions?"

His mind was already harboring suspicions about Wang Dong's identity...

Thinking that making him share a dorm with himself and Huo Yuhao was indeed imposing upon him…

"Crack," After a long while, Wang Dong finally changed into his clothes and came out...

Qian Yu, who was lying on the bed, looked toward Wang Dong and said with a smile, "Finished bathing?"

Wang Dong softly uttered, "Yeah..."

In the darkness, Qian Yu couldn't see the burning red that kept flickering on Wang Dong's hot cheeks...

Turning over, Qian Yu then closed his eyes and said softly, "Now that you're done, go to sleep quickly."

Stunned, Wang Dong climbed into the other bed—quite close to his own—and only after he had lain down did he feel an inexplicable sense of security...

His pinkish-purple eyes slowly closed...

Whispers rose in his heart...

It was so close, he was nearly discovered...

It seems bathing needs to be done more carefully in the future...

...

The next morning, Qian Yu and Huo Yuhao gradually woke up...

They glanced at each other instinctively, with Huo Yuhao inquiring, "Qian Yu, should we wake Wang Dong up?"

Qian Yu shook his head and declined, "No need, let's go clean up."

Ever since yesterday, when he had begun to suspect that Wang Dong might be from the Great Sect...

he felt that taking Wang Dong with them, because he and Huo Yuhao were cleaning, might result in mockery for the former...

And a disciple from the Great Sect, with their proud nature, could bring him trouble...

Subsequently, the two of them slowly got up, picked up the brooms and left the dorm...

The second after the two of them left, Wang Dong on the bed, with those stunningly beautiful pinkish-purple eyes, quietly opened...
