Chapter 198 -199 Chen Huaying Moves In
Everyone had their fill, and after the meal, people left the cafeteria in groups of twos and threes.
Sheng Ning, a slow eater, found the cafeteria nearly empty by the time she left. When she returned to the dorm with Wu Youli, they were startled by someone inside as they opened the door.
“Chen Huaying, what are you doing here?”
Chen Huaying was busy making the bed, which previously belonged to Zhao Feifei. Straightening up, she said in a tone neither friendly nor hostile, “I’m here to make sure a certain someone behaves, so I’m watching.”
“Watching what?”
“I’m helping Living Yama keep an eye out! I can’t let his wife go missing. Otherwise, my brother would surely beat me to death.”

Sheng Ning didn’t get angry at her words but was actually pleased. “Good! Then you have to keep a careful watch for me, and make sure nobody irrelevant shows up.”
Everyone had been living together for a month, and they had all become quite familiar with one another.
Although Chen Huaying had grown up in a large courtyard, she tended to scatter her things haphazardly. As she went back to her former dorm to move her belongings, Sheng Ning and Wu Youli cleaned up and neatly arranged her things for her.
The room had gathered a layer of dust from being uninhabited for an entire month.
Sheng Ning started with tidying the bed and desk, then stripped off the linens and took them to the washing basin to wash.
Looking up at Chen Huaying’s current bed, she stiffened for a moment, remembering Zhao Feifei. She sneakily glanced at Wu Youli and noticed her staring blankly at the vacant bed.
Sheng Ning bit her lip, casting aside the thoughts swirling in her head. Reflecting on Wu Youli’s tragic end in her former life, Sheng Ning reaffirmed her resolve.
The pitiable often have their detestable sides, and there are some people you just can’t afford to be soft-hearted with. Otherwise, you’ll doom yourself to irrevocable ruin, like Zhao Feifei and Qin Cuifen.
“Hurry up, or there won’t be any water left,” Wu Youli urged.
“Where’s Zhang Hongmei?” Sheng Ning hadn’t seen Zhang Hongmei since she woke up; it seemed she really didn’t intend to bother with her anymore.
“She went for a bath, afraid of having to queue up if she went late.”
“Oh!” Sheng Ning nodded, and the two of them finished tidying the room together. Chen Huaying hadn’t returned from moving her stuff from her old dorm yet, so they grabbed their basins and headed to the wash basin together.
On the way, they encountered many from the General Union Dance Troupe. Those who would’ve ignored her now offered a benevolent smile.
This subtle shift went unnoticed by Wu Youli, but Sheng Ning delighted in it enormously.
In both her past life and now, she had spent decades without ever feeling such treatment. From her childhood, it was sarcasm, back-stabbing, and contemptuous looks.
She had been cynical, feeling at odds with the world, which led to her radical ways. But things were different now. Starting anew and putting your whole heart into your actions always brings rewards.
The feeling was truly wonderful.
Sheng Ning beamed all the way to the wash basin, where she happened to bump into Lu Xiaoshuang carrying a tray of freshly washed clothes back to the dorm. As they brushed past each other, Lu Xiaoshuang let out a cold snort, blocking Sheng Ning’s path.
“Captain!” Sheng Ning greeted her proactively.
“Mm!” Lu Xiaoshuang nodded approvingly, her gaze softening slightly towards Sheng Ning, though her words remained sharp.
“Both Living Yama and Shen Jianguo are indeed very outstanding men, and marrying either would be a good thing. But I advise you not to get greedy in the end, wanting both. You can’t afford it, nor do you deserve it.”
