Looking at the dusty room, Zhou Chao furrowed his brow, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to clean it himself.
Seeing Zhou Chao’s actions, Jiang Li curiously asked, “Brother Chao, what are you doing? Are you planning to clean by yourself? Don’t you know there’s a thing called a cleaning lady in the world?”
“Oh!” Zhou Chao snapped out of his thoughts and lightly tapped his head. “Got a bit carried away just now, didn’t think of that!”
Turning to Jiang Li, Zhou Chao said, “Looks like we can’t stay at home today.
I’ll arrange for a cleaning lady in a moment, and then we’ll find a hotel to stay in. It’s not very convenient at Third Aunt’s house after all.”
Jiang Li knew she couldn’t help much staying here and might distract Zhou Chao, so she agreed, “Alright, I’ll wait for you in the car!”
After Jiang Li left, Zhou Chao went online and found a highly-rated household cleaning company. He dialed their number directly.
“Hello, Baijie Housekeeping, happy to serve you. What can we do for you?”
Hearing this name, Zhou Chao’s mind flashed with memories of a classic novel he had read once or twice.
“Ahem, I need three or four professional housekeepers. Can you arrange someone over there?” Zhou Chao redirected his thoughts.
“Sir, if you need three or four professional housekeepers, it might take until tomorrow to arrange. Right now, we only have two professionals available.”
Zhou Chao didn’t want to call other housekeeping companies anymore. After pondering for a moment, he said, “Alright, I’ll double the pay. Arrange a few of them to come over immediately!”
The operator on the other end hesitated for a moment, then sounded more excited, “Sir, could you please provide your address? I’ll arrange for someone to come over right away.”
Hearing this, Zhou Chao smiled subtly. Money indeed opened all doors.
After providing the address, he received a precise answer from the operator, stating that the housekeepers would arrive in about ten minutes.
After waiting for about eight or nine minutes, Zhou Chao felt a light knock on the door. Upon opening it, he saw four housekeeping ladies in identical uniforms standing there, all appearing to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.
One of them, seemingly the leader, respectfully asked, “Hello, are you the one who called for housekeeping?”
Zhou Chao was somewhat surprised and nodded, “Didn’t expect you all to be so young. I thought it would be older ladies.”
Thinking Zhou Chao found them young and inexperienced, the leading lady hastened to explain, “Sir, don’t judge us by our age. In the field of housekeeping, we’re the best in Fuzhou.”
“Alright, I’ll leave the house to you then. I’ll pay you now, and when you’re done, just lock up and leave!” Zhou Chao took out his phone to signal the payment.
The leader didn’t hesitate either and quickly took out her own phone. After paying, Zhou Chao left without another word.
As Zhou Chao left, he faintly heard the conversation of the housekeeping ladies inside, “That boss just now was so handsome. If we need to clean again next time, I really want him to come alone!”
“You flirtatious thing, dream on!”
The voice of the leader came through, “Alright, let’s get to work. Based on the situation, it’ll take at least a few hours to clean thoroughly.”
Hearing these words, Zhou Chao shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself, “Young people these days are so unrestrained!”
Zhou Chao hadn’t realized that he himself was only twenty-six years old, still younger than many others.
When Zhou Chao arrived at the garage, he found Jiang Li already lying on the passenger seat, asleep.
“Ah Li, Ah Li, don’t fall asleep. You’ll catch a cold. Let’s wait until we get to the hotel before sleeping,” Zhou Chao gently woke up Jiang Li.
With sleepy eyes, Jiang Li looked at Zhou Chao and asked, “Brother Chao, are you done with your work?”
“Yeah, let’s go to the hotel first!” Zhou Chao lovingly rubbed Jiang Li’s head, his face filled with affection.
“Okay.” Jiang Li lazily stretched and then sat up.
After searching online, they found the best hotel in Fuzhou, only to realize that it was conveniently located right next to Lei Mingtang’s studio.
“We’re having dinner tonight. Someone’s treating us.” Zhou Chao chuckled and started the car, leaving the garage.
When they arrived at the hotel, Zhou Chao booked the best executive suite. Although it was a five-star hotel, the amenities were slightly different from the large five-star hotels Zhou Chao had stayed in before.
“You should rest for a while. Lei Zi is treating us to dinner tonight.”
Jiang Li nodded, tidied up quickly, and then lay down on the bed to sleep.
Seeing Jiang Li asleep, Zhou Chao smiled and quietly took out his phone to snap a couple of photos. He then found a comfortable position on the sofa and started playing with his phone.
Time passed silently, and the sky gradually darkened as evening approached.
“Mmm…” Jiang Li woke up, stretching lazily.
Sitting on the sofa, Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li with a faint smile and said, “Good morning, sleepyhead!”
“You’re the sleepyhead!” Jiang Li pouted, hands on hips, looking at Zhou Chao angrily, just like an irritated groundhog.
“Hahaha, alright, get up quickly. Lei Zi and his wife are coming over soon. It’s about time,” Zhou Chao said with a smile.
Rolling her eyes at Zhou Chao, Jiang Li got out of bed and put on a jacket. “Okay, let’s go..”
