Xu Youyou and her classmates finally arrived at the ancient town when the sun was setting.

Since it’s not a famous historical site or peak tourist season, there were not many tourists in town. Most of the shops were closed as well.

Teacher Kang had booked a small hotel in town. The rooms were small, and the amenities were not very good. However, it was still acceptable to stay there for a few days.

The girls in the class had already determined their roommates in advance. Since Xu Youyou was not very close to her female classmates, she ended up with a small single room in the corner.

When Teacher Kang found out about this, he said worriedly, “Why don’t we change one room to a three-person room?”

Xu Youyou quickly said, “There’s no need. My sleeping habits aren’t very good so it’s better for me to sleep alone.”

Xu Youyou knew she was quite introverted, and she did not want to force herself into a small circle that did not belong to her.

“Then, remember to call me if you need anything,” Teacher Kang said.

Xu Youyou nodded and dragged her suitcase to the small room at the end of the second floor.

After briefly tidying up, everyone went downstairs to have dinner together. Everyone was mostly tired after traveling for half a day.

Teacher Kang booked a private room in the restaurant next door, and after a simple meal, he told everyone to go back to their rooms and rest early.

Since there was no kettle in the hotel room, they could only obtain water from the front desk.

Xu Youyou held the red hot water bottle as she opened the door to her room. Following that, her phone began to vibrate.

After setting the hot water bottle down, she pulled her phone out. When she saw the words ‘Benefactor Mo’ on her phone, a smile bloomed on her face immediately.

“Hello?”

Mo Shenbai’s low and hoarse voice rang from the end of the line. “Are you at the hotel now?”

“Yes. I just had dinner. Have you eaten?” Xu Youyou said as she sat on the edge of the bed. She turned to look out the small window. Her heart suddenly felt empty, and she was filled with the urge to see him at this moment.

“I haven’t gotten off work yet,” Mo Shenbai replied.

“Do you have a lot of work recently? No matter how busy you are with work, you have to remember to eat. Didn’t Assistant Pei prepare something for you?” Xu Youyou asked. She recalled that he had been coming back very late recently.

“I will eat later,” Mo Shenbai said. Then, he changed the topic and asked, “How’s the hotel?”

“Uh…” Xu Youyou hesitated briefly but decided to tell the truth in the end. “It’s just a small hotel. The things are very old and not very clean. However, I brought my own sleeping bag so it’s fine.”

Although Xu Youyou grew up in the countryside, and she lived in a small house in a village, her grandmother paid a lot of attention to cleanliness. Hence, the house was always spotless. For this reason, she found the grimy toilet bowl and the faintly stained sheets and blanket in the hotel rather unacceptable.

After listening to her words, Mo Shenbai put the pen in his hand down and asked, “Are you sleeping alone in the hotel room?”

If she had a roommate, he did not think it would be so quiet on her side.

“Yes. Although I have a lot of female classmates, fortunately, I don’t have to share a room. Otherwise, it’d be difficult for me to get used to another person in the room,” Xu Youyou said, relieved.

Mo Shenbai could imagine the expression on Xu Youyou’s face when she spoke, and the corners of his lips could not help but curl up. He said, “Well, you’ll have to learn to get used to having another person with you…”

“Huh?” Xu Youyou was puzzled.

Before she could further ponder on his words, Mo Shenbai switched the topic and asked, “Do you want to switch to another hotel? I can help you arrange it.”
