Chapter 332: Chapter 334

Tong Yan’s dormitory was on the first floor, so he opened the window and went out. When he saw Xu Xinduo outside the school fence, he walked over to her and asked, “Why did you come here so suddenly?”

“I just want to talk to you.”

“You’re outside the gates and I’m inside; do I have to sing the song, ‘Tears Behind Bars’?”

“What song is that?”

“…” This song was indeed old and Tong Yan only knew about this joke from the students who secretly snuck out for takeout as they passed by his dormitory.

Deciding to forget about it, Tong Yan pointed to the wall behind him and said, “You can jump in from there and we can talk in my room— it’s quite cold outside.”

“To the boys’ dormitory?”

“My room is a single bedroom on the first floor; there’s no one else, so you can rest assured.”

“Oh……”

Xu Xinduo went to the wall on the side and tried to climb in according to Tong Yan’s instructions. If it weren’t for her tall figure and agile skills, she wouldn’t have been able to climb in.

The height of this wall was simply unreasonable— if her physical condition had been just a little worse or if her height was just a little shorter, climbing this wall would have been impossible to achieve solo.

Sitting on the edge of the wall, she saw Tong Yan standing under the wall with open arms as he waited for her, “Come! Come to your husband’s arms.”

Xu Xinduo wanted to give him a good kick, “Do I need you?”

After saying that, she jumped down and landed steadily.

The duo walked towards the room and entered Tong Yan’s room through the window. The lights in the bedroom were still on as Xu Xinduo looked around and said, “The environment of the single bedroom is not bad; there’s even a separate bathroom.”

“You consider this ‘not bad’?”

“We have lived in houses like this in the countryside; I didn’t see you having a problem with it.”

Tong Yan shut the windows and drew the curtains.

He was someone of dedicated tastes— he bought a mattress for the bed himself. After moving into the dorms, he also discarded the desk, wardrobe from the room and brought in new ones.

The so-called new furniture didn’t bring much style to the room as the items remained in the warehouse of the manufacturer as stock for half a year. And that wasn’t enough— the entire floor of the bedroom was carpeted and the curtains were replaced with blackout ones. The curtains also had to be manually shut as well in contrast to the automatic ones at home.

“Can that be compared?” Tong Yan retorted, asking Xu Xinduo to take off her padded jacket before he put a shawl on her, “I feel the warmth of a home in the countryside house that isn’t present here.”

Xu XInduo, who was wrapped in a shawl, sat on the bed and let out of sight, “We were supposed to keep our distance, but instead, I’m the one who approached you.”

“Tell me, who bullied our little sun?”

Xu Xinduo told him what Mu Qingyi said.

Tong Yan sat beside her and nodded, completely understanding her point of view and her dilemma.

He was a person who protected his own shortcomings, so he became slightly disgusted with the Mu family’s treatment as he put himself in Xu Xinduo’s shoes.

He sighed and said, “So we basically have to forgive them because they’re putting in the effort? What rights do they have to expect us to do that?
