More dirty water flowed out from the toilet blocked by the mop. The surface of the grayish-black water reflected a pair of legs wearing a pair of canvas shoes.
Mu Ya immediately walked over and frowned as he drew out the mop and pushed open the door. As expected, Shen Yin was standing inside.
She seemed to be in even more dire straits than usual. Her entire body was stained by the dirty water, and her loosely-fitted uniform stuck closely to her body, causing traces of her undergarment to be seen. Her overly-long fringe was pressed down by the water pressure, causing her eyes to be completely covered, revealing only half of her pale, tear-stricken face.
If a cowardly person were to see this scene in the middle of the night, they would be so frightened by her current state that theyâd scream.
Mu Ya moved her fringe away before he could see her entire face. âWas it them?â
Shen Yin turned her head and avoided his touch, wrapping her arms around her body as she lowered her head, and said, âThank you.â She then tried to squeeze past him.
However, the gap was too small, and she was afraid that sheâd dirty Mu Yaâs clothes. Without a choice, she could only say, âPlease move.â
Mu Ya moved to make way for her. He watched as Shen Yin washed her arms at the tap, then suddenly asked, âWhereâs your dorm? Iâll go get you new clothes.â
Shen Yin paused, then replied softly, âI donât have clothes to change into.â
âYouâre also a day student?â Mu Ya asked.
Shen Yin fell silent.
âIt canât be that this is the only set of clothes you have, right?â Mu Yaâs brows furrowed even tighter.
âItâll be fine after I wash them.â Perhaps because Shen Yin found this embarrassing, her voice became even softer. She turned off the tap and then hugged herself, running out while passing by him.
Mu Ya quickly followed behind her. No matter how fast Shen Yin walked, she was unable to lose him.
She pretended not to see anything. After they left the classroom building, Mu Ya suddenly pulled her to the back of the building.
âWhat are you doing?â Shen Yin touched her hair, asking perplexedly.
Mu Ya walked over to the wall, then suddenly jumped, easily climbing the top of the three-meter-tall wall. A lot of glass fragments were on top, and a few streaks of blood flowed down his palm.
âYour hand!â Shen Yin panicked and walked over quickly.
Mu Ya climbed the wall, his expression unchanging. He stood steadily on top of the triangular-shaped wall, bent over, and reached with one hand towards her.
Half of that hand was covered in blood, appearing very scary to the eyes of modern-day people. Shen Yin looked anxious and didnât dare to touch it.
âHurry up,â Mu Ya urged. He thought that she didnât like that his hand was dirty and was about to change to pull her up with another hand when Shen Yin finally grabbed onto his hand.
Even though she had no idea why he was bringing her out.
Mu Ya pulled and lifted her up the wall, wrapping his other arm around her waist. He didnât let her legs land on the wall and just jumped off directly.
Shen Yin put her hands to her chest and kept on panting. She then stared at Mu Yaâs feet, asking, âYour feet...?â
âMy feet are fine.â Mu Ya wiped the blood off his hand on the wall, then propped his hand against the wall, lifting his feet to check the soles.
Eagle beastmenâs legs were tough as steel, so how could they possibly be pierced through by brittle glass?
It was a pity that the soles of his shoes were spoiled. His mommy would definitely nag, so he mustnât let her find out.
Shen Yin only thought that the soles of the shoes were thick enough that they didnât pierce his feet. She heaved a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Mu Yaâs clothes were dirtied, she said apologetically, âIâm sorry. I made you dirty.â
âI was the one who implicated you.â Mu Ya said as he looked at her. Straightening, he could see that he was over a head taller than her. The height difference brought about a feeling of pressure.
Shen Yin took a step back cowardly, looking around.
Mu Ya said, âI live nearby. Come over to my house. You can wear my momâs clothes.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Shen Yin opened her eyes wide, then lowered her head to look at her clothes. Realizing she had no other choice, she lowered her head, giving her silent consent.
