Chi Enen was the kind of person who, once she started something, would dedicate herself to it completely.
By the time she finished, the company was already closed.
She stretched lazily, saved the hard-won solutions she had produced, turned off her computer, and took out her bag from the drawer. She then said to Qin Nan, who was still busy working overtime, âSister Nan, Iâm leaving now, ha.â âSo early?â
âI have something to do.â
Qin Nan thought she was talking about something to do with Baby Chi and nodded her head, âOkay, you go first. Iâll wait for your Brother Wang to pick me up.â
âShowing off your love~ â
Qin Nan glanced at her with a playful scold and said happily, âWhen will you give me a lovey-dovey display, huh? I have your red packets all prepared.â
Not this topic again⦠Chi Enen felt a headache coming on and laughed as she escaped, âCough cough, wait till youâve saved up a super big red packet. Iâm really going now, bye.â
âBye.â
After she left the companyâs main entrance, she expertly crossed the street and walked to the intersection on the opposite side.
A black Aston Martin was parked by the roadside, and upon seeing her, the driver proficiently opened the car door for her, âYoung Lady, I was just about to call you.â
Chi Enen slid into the car like a thief and explained embarrassingly, âI got a bit tied up with work today and left late.â
During her first week in Capital City, besides the 300 yuan left from selling her mobile phone, she was completely broke. She could only afford to stay in a cheap motel and went out during the day to look for work everywhere. Her educational background was too low, and she lacked work experience, so better jobs simply wouldnât consider her at all. The only choices available to her were positions like cashier or salesperson. She wasnât afraid of hard work; she had done all sorts of jobs when her grandfather was sick and in need of money. But she wanted to bring Baby Chi back to the country and couldnât settle for a job with long hours and unstable employment. Therefore, after searching for an entire week, she still hadnât found anything suitable.
Just as she was running out of options, her hidden marriage husband, who she hadnât contacted in a long time, suddenly sent her a text message. He asked if she had time to help with something and then, after learning she was in Capital City, referred her to the job she currently had.
The favor he mentioned was actually about a house in Capital City that needed someone to clean regularly so that it would be ready to move into immediately upon his return to the country.
Chi Enen had wondered why he didnât hire a professional cleaning company instead of looking for her specifically. But then she remembered something Si Chen had mentioned about his friends having various eccentricities, and she understood.
These days, rich people without a few quirky habits would be embarrassed to call themselves rich.
The driver, a man of few words, drove honestly towards the suburban wealthy area.
The journey was quiet.
Soon, the car stopped outside a beautiful villa.
The driver got out quickly and opened the car door for her like a gentleman, shielding the car roof with his hand, âMadam, weâve arrived, watch your head.â
Chi Enen was embarrassed by his repeated references to her as âYoung Ladyâ and felt inclined to correct him. But opting not to, she ignored his address and thanked him with a smile, âThank you.â
âItâs my duty,â replied the driver, who dared not accept her thanks, promptly adding, âMadam, please go in. Iâll wait outside for you, and you can call me anytime if you need anything.â
âAlright.â
She took out the room card from her bag and swiped open the door.

A house so beautiful it seemed unreal caught her eyeâthe clean, bright floor- to-ceiling glass window allowed a view of a courtyard teeming with fresh flowers. The spiral staircase, made of solid wood, basked in the mottled sunlight shining upon it, each slat bathed in light, tranquil and comfortable.
