Chapter 2. Washing his underwear

Chen Yang lives in a quadruple dormitory on the second floor.

Chen Xiang came over to help him wash his dirty clothes, brush his dirty shoes, change his bed sheets to wash and hang them and clean the whole dormitory room.

When Liao Jun came to return the bag and saw how clean the room was, he almost suspected that he had gone to the wrong room.

Liao Jun nodded and said in a gruff voice, “Well, my room is just like a pigsty too.”

“…”

Chen Xiang bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and then said softly, “If …… you, you don’t mind, I can help you clean it.”

“Good.” Liao Jun looked at the clothes drying on the balcony and said again, “You still help your brother wash his underwear?”

Chen Xiang waved her hand awkwardly and explained hurriedly, “No, no, he washed them himself.”

“Oh.” Liao Jun looked at her and asked, “Then can you help me wash my underwear?”

Chen Xiang: “…”

The woman’s face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye and she really looked like a red apple. Liao Jun thought to himself that the trainee had really been right, this country woman really liked him.

Someone called for Liao Jun from downstairs and he went down to  respond.

Chen Xiang sat on Chen Yang’s bed and waited for him. When Chen Yang came up, she asked him about Liao Jun’s room and went in there to clean it up. But there was no particular mess, except that clothes were thrown everywhere and lunch boxes were left untidy on the coffee table.

His appetite was amazing. All six lunch boxes were eaten cleanly by him. 

The clothes in the cupboard were all black vests, followed by….a particularly large number of underwear, more than a hundred in all.

Remembering what the man had said, Chen Xiang blushed and washed his underwear and hung them out on the balcony.

It was only after she finished cleaning that she realized that it was getting dark. The evening bus back to the countryside was at 7:00, and it was 6:44 then. 

When Chen Yang came over, Chen Xiang was covered in sweat and was running downstairs with the bag in her arms, “Chen Yang, I’m leaving, I’m afraid I won’t be able to catch the bus.”

“Sister, I’ll see you off.” Chen Yang lifted up his shirt and wiped the sweat off his face. At the age of 16, his abs were already obvious, but he was too skinny and his muscles were not as well defined as Liao Jun’s.

“No, you stay here, I remember the way.” Chen Xiang ran down in a hurry and nearly bumped into someone while walking through the club corridor.

She didn’t take a taxi inorder to save money. The taxi fare was 14 yuan, and the bus ride to her hometown was only 8 yuan.

But by the time she reached the bus stand, the last bus had already left, it was 7.05pm, and she had missed the last one.

When her mobile phone rang, she pressed answer and it was Chen Yang calling to ask if she had caught the bus.

Chen Xiang lied and said, “Don’t worry, I’m already on the bus.”

“Sister, don’t lie to me, turn around.”

Chen Xiang turned in surprise. Chen Yang was standing not far away. He also came running after her. His voice was panting and his face was full of sweat, “Sister, I asked the coach, he said you can stay in the club lounge, free of charge.”

Chen Xiang froze for a long moment before sniffling and forcing back the heat from her eyes.

“Will your coach …… look down on you?” On the way back, Chen Xiang asked him, “Would you be ashamed because of me?”

Who would miss the last bus and stay in the club lounge? That’s clearly someone who couldn’t afford a room and was extremely poor.

“No, the coach said you cleaned his room very well and he hasn’t had a chance to thank you.” Chen Yang smiled and said, “Sister, you are the best sister in the world, you never disgrace me.”

Chen Xiang’s eyes suddenly turned red.

The author has something to say: 

Just because there are more than a hundred underwear, doesn’t mean they are all dirty. It’s just messy in the cupboard, so the heroine washes them all, got it?
