Chapter Ninety-One
After entering the villa, Zhou Yu remarked, "The commander is really quite frugal. Everything here is wooden—wooden furniture, wooden doors."
Nian Yu laughed. "Maybe he's just used to wooden things."
Zhou Yu said, "Alright, let's tidy up. I'm going to slack off for a bit and take a nap. Since it's called a villa, there must be several rooms. If you don't want to stay by yourselves, you can come find me. Haha." With that, Zhou Yu dashed upstairs.
Nian Yu gritted her teeth in annoyance, muttering, "You wretch, no one would ever want to stay with you."
Xiao Jie and Pan Yuxin blushed.
Pan Yuxin said, "Nian Yu, shouldn't we look for the keys first?"
Nian Yu replied, "No need. Let that wretch find them. Let's just clean up."
Zhou Yu, upon reaching the second floor, didn't rest immediately. Instead, he inspected each room. Upstairs, there were four rooms: three bedrooms and a study.
In the study, Zhou Yu rummaged around and eventually found a bunch of keys. He looked at them, wondering what each one was for—such a jumble. He knew he'd have to go downstairs and test them himself.
Holding the keys, Zhou Yu descended. Seeing the three women busy cleaning, he thought to himself how wonderful it would be if this weren't the apocalypse.
Zhou Yu tried each key in turn and managed to find two that worked. This troubled him—there were four of them altogether, but only two keys. How awkward.
He detached the door keys and went inside. Addressing the three women, he said, "There are only two keys. You'll have to figure out how to share them yourselves. I'm going to sleep." With that, he left.
Halfway up the stairs, he turned back and added, "There are three rooms upstairs—pick whichever you like."
He entered one room, lay down, and soon fell asleep.
After a while, the three women came upstairs to choose their rooms. In truth, there wasn't much tidying to do. The villa's owner had probably left just days before the apocalypse began, so there was little to clean—just some wiping here and there, which the three quickly finished.
The three women inspected each room. In the largest, the master bedroom, they found Zhou Yu sprawled across the bed in a starfish pose, which made them all smile.
They closed the door and each chose a bedroom. As they entered, Pan Yuxin said, "Maybe I should take the bedroom downstairs."
Xiao Jie objected, "No way—it doesn't even have blankets. How could you sleep there?"
Pan Yuxin replied, "There must be some somewhere. Maybe they just haven't been taken out yet. I'll look later."
Xiao Jie suggested, "How about this? You take this room, and Nian Yu and I will share the other."
Nian Yu said, "Forget it. You two should each take your own."
Pan Yuxin asked, "So, Nian Yu, which room are you going to sleep in?"
Nian Yu sighed, "Where else? The one that wretch is sleeping in. It's not like we haven't shared a bed before."
Xiao Jie teased, "Oh, what's this? You already want to be the housekeeper so soon?"
Nian Yu replied with mock annoyance, "You brat, what are you talking about? Who wants to be his housekeeper?"
Xiao Jie said, "It's obvious. That room is the master bedroom—the owner's room."
Nian Yu glared, "So what? What's wrong with that?"
Xiao Jie chuckled, "Nothing at all. Besides, you two have done everything together already. Haha."
Nian Yu lunged at Xiao Jie, saying, "You brat! Just wait until Zhou Yu wakes up—I’ll have him deal with you today."
