Thinking that the furnishing in Han Muzi’s new house was not enough, Han Qing made a few calls to buy some things for her. Since the original owner had never lived there, the furnishing was still lacking here and there despite the completed renovation work, for example, the lack of decorations on the wall and ornaments on the table. Han Qing noticed these and helped her to buy them.
Meanwhile, Little Bean also joined everyone in cleaning the house, and everyone was busy with their own chores.
While they were busy doing work, they were chatting merrily with each other.
When everything was done, they realized that they were too tired to even move. Little Bean and Yan simply hugged each other and fell asleep on the couch without minding their image.
The maids were more restrained. Although they were very tired, they remained seated primly on the side and dared not make any complaints or showed it despite their exhaustive faces.
“It’s been a hard day for everyone. There is a room upstairs. You should go take a rest. When you have finished resting, I will invite everyone out for dinner.
The three maids were moved by her offer, but they waved their hands timidly. “No thanks, Miss Muzi. We are all quite filthy. If we go upstairs to rest, we will smear your quilt. We’ll just sit here for a while.”
Han Muzi smiled. “You have helped me so much today. How can I not let you rest? Go upstairs quickly. We have enough rooms.”
They were still trying to reject Han Muzi’s offer, reluctant to go upstairs. In the end, Han Qing ushered, “I’ll ask Mr. Nan to send them home to wash up and rest, then I’ll give them three days off. Will that be better?”
Han Muzi was speechless when she heard that. Her brother really understood her well.
When the maids heard that, their faces were flushed with joy. Three days of leave was a luxury for many, though they were still a little embarrassed.
“In that case, Mr. Nan will send you back first. We’ll take a rain check on the dinner.”
“Thank you, Miss Muzi. We shall take our leave first.” The maids looked at her gratefully before going out with Mr. Nan.
After they left, Han Qing couldn’t help bumping his fist on Han Muzi’s head gently. “Actually, this is part of their responsibilities. You don’t have to feel so guilty.”
Hearing that, Han Muzi froze for a while before saying, “Nothing should be taken for granted. Although the Han Family paid them to work, it is fine for them as long as they do their job well. But, it’s different for me to ask them to come over and clean this up for me.”
“Is there any difference in cleaning at the Han residence compared to cleaning for you here?”
“The mood is different.” Han Muzi raised her eyes and glanced at Han Qing. “At least to me, because they are not hired by me.”
Han Qing paused and understood where she was coming from. He didn’t say anything else after that.
“Qing, you should take a rest too. I’ll go upstairs and have a look.” With that, she walked to the second floor.
This was one of the great points of the duplex house. It had a spiral staircase with a huge crystal chandelier in the middle. Although it was exquisite, it was not too luxurious and quite pleasing to look at.
After walking around the entire house, Han Muzi felt that it was a great decision to buy this place. She took a shower and got changed before falling on the bed. In fact, she was also very tired, so she fell asleep shortly after lying down.
Then, she was woken up by the vibration of her phone. Perhaps she was too tired, for she immediately answered the phone without looking at the caller ID. She put the phone directly next to her ear and said a weak ‘hello’.
Ye Moxuan couldn’t help frowning when he heard her tired and confused voice. What’s wrong with this woman? “What did you do last night?”
A cold and deep attractive voice rang in her ears. Han Muzi was startled, but she was a little confused. She looked at the phone and found out that it was Ye Moxuan.
“How may I help you?” She still couldn’t muster any energy within her and felt that everything in front of her was dark; she hadn’t been so tired for a long time. After waking up, she felt that her limbs had gone soft and even trembled a little.
“You have to serve me 24 hours a day. I want to see your designs today.”
Han Muzi paused for a moment before saying, “Sorry, I don’t work on weekends.”
Ye Moxuan arched his eyebrows and curled his lips. “When we signed the contract, you didn’t state that you don’t work on weekends. Did you change it suddenly?”
“That’s right.” Han Muzi nodded immediately. After knowing that she did not divorce this man, and seeing how he pestered her all the time, Han Muzi didn’t feel like treating him as a client anymore. Since he was so unabashed about his actions, she decided to treat him with her worst attitude. Anyway, it would be best if he became angry and wanted to cancel the contract. If he didn’t get angry, then she would continue treating him this way. If he didn’t mind, she wouldn’t care either. “I’ve added this rule at the last minute. Do you have any objections?”
Ye Moxuan didn’t know how to reply at that instant and fell silent. He never thought that Han Muzi would suddenly change her tactics. Before this, she treated him as a client, but recently, she was not afraid of him anymore and treated him rudely without any respect.
Thinking of this, Ye Moxuan’s thin lips curled into an evil smile. “Since my wife is giving out orders, how dare I have any objections?”
When Han Muzi heard him suddenly addressing her as his wife, all her sleepiness was gone in that instant. She was taken aback and her phone fell on the pillow with a soft thud.
As the room was too quiet, Ye Moxuan probably heard the phone fall, thereafter she heard his attractive laughter. This b*stard…
After Han Muzi returned to her senses, she gritted her teeth and picked up the phone again. “Ye Moxuan, please conduct yourself. We will get divorced sooner or later, so don’t call me that again.”
“Who said so?” Ye Moxuan chuckled in a vindictive tone. “You haven’t succeeded in the last five years. Do you think it will be possible in the future?”
Han Muzi fell silent upon hearing that.
“If you are bored, please go to your company to make yourself useful, or you can help some poor people. Please don’t disturb my sleep.” After that, Han Muzi did not give him a chance to react and hung up the phone directly.
Listening to the dial tone from the phone, Ye Moxuan was taken aback for a moment. “Foolish woman, her temper is getting more outrageous these days…” Not long after that, he murmured again, “I wonder who has been spoiling her…”
After Han Muzi threw the phone aside, she closed her eyes and tried to sleep again, but it was a pity that she couldn’t calm down after being disturbed by Ye Moxuan’s words and voice. She lay down for a while longer with her eyes closed before sitting up again.
Although she didn’t treat him as a client now, she didn’t need to treat him as her previous client. She could just drive him away and ask him to get lost. However, it was not easier than before.
Thinking of this, Han Muzi sighed. She wondered when she could get rid of him. When she thought about the divorce, her hands were tied. Initially, she thought that she had grown a lot in the past five years, yet that man had also become smarter over the last five years. He had particularly become more thick-skinned.
