"Wow, Yu Sheng, your accommodations are so nice!"
"I don't even want to go back to Ink Academy!"
Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned the instant she opened the door.

She touched things here and there before finally flinging herself onto the luxurious sofa.
Seeing the Gold Yuanbao trophy on the table, several of them gathered around and kept discussing Sun Wen's taste.

"Shameless!"
"Damn them!"
"Animals! Worse than pigs
