Lin Yixun never thought that she would get fired on her first day at work, and even more unexpectedly, it was because of her body measurements.
If it were for any other reason, she might be able to argue, but her body measurements — those were something she couldn’t change, and even worse, they might shrink.
What else could she do but accept her fate?
Ouyang Hao originally thought Lin Yixun would at least argue with him a bit or ask why she was fired, but to his surprise, she said nothing, placed the mop in the utility room, and quietly left.
This woman, though as thin as a famine victim in Africa, was still sensible.
However, he might have drawn his conclusion a bit too early.
A week later, he saw a busy figure again in his kitchen. At first, he thought his agent had hired another housekeeper, but when he saw who it was, his brow furrowed.
Wasn’t this the same woman he fired last week?
"Why are you still here?"
The woman looked like she got caught stealing, bowed her head low, and shrank back, as if she could make herself invisible and avoid his gaze.
"Hey you, I’m talking to you! Are you mute?"
Lin Yixun slowly raised her eyes and said in a low voice, "Miss Xiao asked me to stay."
Ouyang Hao turned around, pulled out his phone from his pocket, and called Xiao Mu, "Sis, what’s going on? Didn’t I ask you to find me a new housekeeper? Why is it still the same one after changing back and forth?"
"Change? My dear brother, tell me, how many housekeepers have you had me change in these six months? If you didn’t dislike their body shape, you said they were ugly. How am I supposed to keep changing for you? Ouyang Hao, let me make it clear, you are not looking for a date, you are looking for a housekeeper!"
What use is a housekeeper’s face and body?
Thinking of the previous housekeeper, Xiao Mu couldn’t help but get angry. That person had a good face and body but couldn’t do anything except get involved in bed scandals with Ouyang Hao!
"Ouyang Hao, let me tell you, if you bother me with this kind of stuff again, I won’t wipe your butt when another scandal happens. If any bad news reaches uncle’s ears, deal with it yourself!"
The voice from the other end of the phone was almost deafening. Ouyang Hao grimaced and held the phone away, then started acting, "Sis, what are you saying? The signal here is bad; I can’t hear you. Okay, I’ll hang up now and chat later."
After hanging up, Ouyang Hao still felt apprehensive. His cousin always brought up his old man whether there was a reason or not, could people live ?
Just as he turned to go upstairs for a nap, he saw the cause of his frustration still standing there, and his face turned as dark as Guan Gong’s.
"Why are you still standing there? Aren’t you a housekeeper? Get back to work!"
Ouyang Hao’s tone was as harsh as could be; clearly, he was in a foul mood. Lin Yixun didn’t want to provoke him and tactfully retreated to the kitchen.
Even though she faced Ouyang Hao’s fury, at least she managed to keep her job.
Soon, Lin Yixun found out the matter wasn’t over.
After cleaning the house, she neatly placed everything back into the utility room, ready to quickly vanish. Ouyang Hao didn’t want her around, and she didn’t want to stay here either.
Just as she reached the stairs to the second floor, she heard a crashing sound from the study direction. Following that, she saw Ouyang Hao coming out of the study.
Ouyang Hao approached her and pointed behind him, "You, tidy up the study."
Lin Yixun’s eyebrows furrowed slightly in confusion, "Mr. Ouyang, I just cleaned the study."
"Is that so?" Ouyang Hao raised an eyebrow and slightly bent down, looking at her from above, "Why does it look very messy to me?"
The man was a head taller than her; his bending down enveloped her in his shadow, creating an invisible sense of pressure on her.
Lin Yixun instinctively stepped back two paces, bypassed Ouyang Hao, and headed toward the study. She clearly remembered cleaning that place. But as she reached the door, she halted.
She looked at the empty bookshelf against the wall and the piles of books chaotic on the floor, feeling utterly defeated.
Ouyang Hao was very pleased with Lin Yixun’s reaction. His thin lips curled slightly, and he leisurely came behind her, gently patting her shoulder.
"These books are all yours to tidy up. Oh, I recall there are a total of more than two thousand three hundred books here, and each book has a serial number. Make sure you arrange them according to the numbers."
In the end, he didn’t forget to give Lin Yixun a triumphant wink. Didn’t she like to stay here? Well, then stay nicely, won’t she?
