It was Xia Ju’s first time here, so she was curious about the entire courtyard. Seeing this, Du Yue put her luggage away and began to show Xia Ju around the three rooms. After walking around, Xia Ju nodded in satisfaction. “This is great. It’s much better than us living underground.”
Du Yue agreed with her. The three had never experienced living underground before, so they were more or less curious about it. However, after experiencing it for themselves, Du Yue and the other two avoided the topic of living underground.

Du Yue asked Xia Ju. When Du Yue and He Xing lived here before, the room on the right was used as a kitchen. However, the two of them usually cleaned up and the room was well protected. There were no traces of oil stains on the ceiling and walls. They only needed to clean up a little before they could move in.
Xia Ju did not have many requests, so she agreed readily. Thinking that Zuo Mingdong would come to visit in the next two days, Du Yue and the other two did not put too many things in the room. After tidying up the house, the three of them planned to go out. After all, there was not even a bed here. They had to buy two beds to put on a show in front of the others. Unexpectedly, Zuo Mingdong called He Xing before the three of them walked out of the courtyard.
He Xing hung up the phone after a few short sentences. Du Yue and Xia Ju did not say anything. They just looked at He Xing curiously. “Captain Zuo had someone prepare two beds for us and sent them over. He asked us to wait at home.”
Hearing this, Du Yue felt warmth in her heart. Zuo Mingdong should be busy discussing the trade of the Snowy Cold Fruit with Sun Yu right now, so he should not have the time to care about anything else.
She did not expect him to find time to think about the fact that they did not have a bed when he was so busy. This way, the three of them could save a lot of trouble.
The three of them waited for less than half an hour before they heard the roar of a car approaching from afar. Then, there was a knock on the door. Knowing that the people who delivered the beds had arrived, He Xing did not hesitate at all and directly walked over to open the door for them. A few men brought the beds over. After they helped He Xing carry the beds into the two bedrooms, they said goodbye and left. Du Yue looked at the unfamiliar faces and guessed that they should be the subordinates that Zuo Mingdong had recruited after they left. Du Yue and He Xing were used to giving some food or supplies to show their gratitude no matter who helped them.
However, this time, Du Yue did not give them anything. After all, she did not know much about the current first base. If they were too generous, it would easily attract the attention of others, which was not a good thing for them.
After they left, Du Yue went to the bedrooms and carefully looked at the two beds. Both were wooden beds. Although they were a little simple, they were very sturdy. Du Yue tried sitting on one and found it very stable. Du Yue said to the two of them, “The quality of the beds is not bad. Let’s sleep on them. It’ll save us a lot of trouble.”
Xia Ju nodded. “Okay, just put mattresses on them.”

Not to mention Xia Ju, if there was only a hard wooden bed without anything on it, Du Yue would not be able to sleep either. After laying out the mattresses and changing the bedding, they could go up to rest. Although there was nothing in the rooms except for a bed, the three of them did not mind. Finally, they did not have to squeeze in the car. What the three of them wanted to do the most now was to take a bath. Du Yue left He Xing a bathtub and toiletries and followed Xia Ju to her room.
While bathing, Xia Ju’s gaze would occasionally glance at Du Yue. She looked like she wanted to say something.
Du Yue had already noticed her gaze, but she did not take the initiative to ask and pretended not to notice anything. Xia Ju was not someone who could hold back her curiosity. After a while, she could not help but say, “Du Yue, why aren’t you showering with He Xing?”
Before Du Yue could reply, Xia Ju covered her mouth and laughed. Du Yue looked at her teasing eyes and replied very calmly, “I’m taking a shower with you now. Your little head is already starting to run wild. If I go over and bathe with He Xing, won’t you be imagining a big show in your mind?”
Xia Ju was stunned at first, but then she chuckled. “You’ve seen through me. How boring..”
