“What? You want to fire me? No way!” Amy is pouting, a pair of big eyes are staring round, hands folding waist, “Please, you are a big man, how can you go back on your words?”

I spread out my hand: “I have no job now, and no income either.”

Amy turns around and laughing: “But I don’t need you to pay my salary! Somebody has already paid for it!”

“But I have no place to live now.” I still shake my head.

“Cut! Don’t fool me!” Amy is very shrewd to pierce my excuse, “Would such a big man have no place to live? You can go to rent, or sleep in a hotel. Anyway, you won’t sleep on the road! Even if you live in a kennel, I will follow you as a conscientious nurse!”

“Stop playing, Amy.” I frown, “Don’t follow me anymore. If someone in your company asks, you say you’re still with me, and nobody knows.”

“You think it’s that simple?” She deliberately stares at me with a looking at an idiot’s eye, “If the company is so stupid, do I have to run around with you? Come on! The company is not so easy to be cheated! I need to record your daily living, your diet, your physical condition, blood pressure, heart rate, weight, nutrition! And I need to report to the company every day! Company will also check my work from time to time. Do you think this job is that easy?”

I sigh and can’t contradict her.

In those days in the hospital, she would give me a lot of tests every day. At first I thought it was ordered by hospital, and later I realized that many of are her daily works.

“The report can be falsed.” I say lightly, “If I don’t say and you don’t say, who knows it!”

Amy is thinking about it for a while and looking at me secretly: “Are you sure? Don’t need my care service, and still pay me. I’ve never seen such a fool like you.” But then she seems to hesitate and says, “No. The risk is too high. Company will check, just in case of fear! If I accidentally spill the beans, I will be fired. To be safe, I had better to follow you honestly. ”

I am really not able to handle this smart and stubborn girl.

And most importantly, after a few days live together, she did take good care of me, and the relationships between us are so harmonious that it is hard for me to turn my back on her.

“Oh, well, please yourself! I’m going to stay at the hotel now! Only one bed! Do you follow me?”

“Yes!” Amy actually nods, with a look of heroic expression, “I’ll sleep on the floor. Anyway, this job pays so much that it’s worth sleeping on the floor.”

“I do respect you!” I sigh and thinking for a moment. Then I suddenly remember the property company that I had blackmailed and they promised to arrange a flat to let me rent. Take out the phone, I dial that number immediately.

When the person who’s in charge of the property company hears my call, he breathes a sigh of relief and asks me in a hurry where I were and why I hadn’t contacted him these days.

I struck a few words before I realize that he was afraid of my turning back. The commercial building I was involved in put on a large-scale advertising campaign these days. He is afraid that I would come out and expose it, it would be a mass tragedy.

Driven by interests, people’s work efficiency is unusually high. We negotiated on the phone that we can immediately go to take a look that flat. The location is not far from my present position, but also a rather noble residential district.

To be honest, I feel very happy.

I know that residential district. It is very expensive, and the rental is quite expensive too.

If I am still working the nightclub, there is no any problem with it. But I have lost my job, so I must think more about the price.

Luckily, when I was blackmailing the property company, we had settled the rental, which was very cheap.

Without saying any extra word, I immediately stop a taxi and drive to the appointed place.

Naturally, my little tail Amy is still following me.

…

“Here it is!” I look around the house, quite satisfied.

Two bedrooms, one living room, newly decorated, double rooms facing south, sunny, the living room is very spacious and bright. The only drawback is that the toilet is small, but fortunately I don’t have the habit of soaking in the bathtub, and it’s good to have a shower at home.

There is a suite of ready furniture in the house. Simple but enough for daily usage. It is provided by their company. Although they are not the famous brands, but the quality are good.

Obviously, this is a set of “single apartments” for some urban white-collar workers. But I don’t care. I like this place very much. It’s quiet in the neighborhood, and the traffic is good. There’s a supermarket downstairs. Daily life should be very convenient.

I have met that man for the second time from the property company. He is obviously very confident of the house and knows I will accept it. And I can see that he did pay attention in order to solve the trouble as soon as possible.

The rental is 30% lower than that of the same grade flats nearby, and all the property management fees are free.

When I’m ready to pay the money, Amy is suddenly yelling out: “Wait!”

Then the little girl bounce up to the guy and pouts, “This house is full of the big problems!”

Then her smallmouth is shooting words as sharp as a machine gun.

For example, the flat is in the tenth floor, in her mouth is very problematic, she says that according to the urban environment we live in, the tenth floor is located about 30 meters away from the ground, just in the air in the exhaust layer! Air pollution in the city, automobile exhaust emissions, generally suspended at this height, would have great impacts on the human body.

Then she accuses the two rooms, though facing south, but the sun has been blocked by the opposite building from an angle, so that missing two hours of sunshine a day.

In this way, she’s saying more and more, and finally summing up this house that I seem to have been satisfied with is full of the faults. In her mouth, it is turned out to be a project full of quality problems.

The man, though shrewd too, is clearly not Amy’s sharp-toothed opponent at this point. After being counted down by her, he is angry and flushing. Amy stops and waits until his anger reaches a critical point. Before he flutters out, she says: “So many problems, you justneed to lower the price a little more!”

Finally, under the pressure of this little moneygrubber, the property company guy actually promises to exempt me from half a year of water and electricity charges! I am also donated a year’s Internet broadband fee.

After signing the contract and have paid the deposit on the spot, the guy finally recover from scare. He raises his thumb to the petty little moneygrubber and sighs: “Tough! You are really tough!”

Then the guy is running away without a trace.

Little moneygrubber is satisfactorily watching him leave, then turns to look at me, still a lesson to the children’s tone, shaking her head: “Chen Yang, you such a big man, simply do not know how to live! Does all your money come from the air?”

Ignoring my stunned look, she lies down on the sofa in the living room and sighing cheerfully: “Finally there’s a nest!”

Then the little moneygrubber turns to me and looks at me seriously: “My honorable client, we’ll be living under the same roof for a while before you fire me!” Then she sighs and says in an envious voice, “Oh, this house is wonderful. How can you find such a good house? Has the God blinded?”

I curl my lips: “What makes you feeling so comfortable? If you want to stay with me, do the cleaning works first. There are windows need to be cleaned, floors need to be washed, quilts need to be arranged at home, and the towels, toothbrushes, and so on. A lot of things need to be bought back.”

“Ah!” The little moneygrubber is jumping up from the sofa and staring at me: “Are you mistaken something? I am your private nurse, not your maid! I am responsible for taking care of your body and your injury. Not including to be your babysitter! I will not do any housework!”

I deliberately shake my arm in plaster: “Do you think I can do the housework by myself? Fortunately, here has the pipe natural gas. Otherwise, I’m afraid the gas tank should rely on you to carry!”

There is a cunning smile on her face: “This is your problem. The best thing you can do is to make the wound worse. So I can stay with you as a nurse for a longer time.”

This cunning girl!

Joking is joking. After dropping the baggage, Amy goes back to pick up her stuff and goes to her company to do a job report. By the way, she will go to the supermarket to help me to buy some daily necessities. Of course, I give her money, which not only for the cost, but also include her tip. She even made a list of all the household chores except for her nursing duties.

For example, ten for wash clothes, ten for cleanup, ten for cook, rackets: if cook three meals a day, then 15% off.

But fortunately, I was smart enough to add one condition: the pay for cooking include wash the dishes.

At that time, the little moneygrubber looked very helpless. She sighed: “You are a fast learner! It seems that I have lost money again!”

I was in a cold sweat… What kind of girl is she?!

I’ve never met a girl who is so care about money!

But her price list is fair, and I have calculated it. It’s much cheaper than hire a part-time housekeeping, so I just agreed with her.

Of course, I also wanted to retaliate on her, intentionally made a malicious request: “Then help me warm the bed, how much is it?”

This time, her answer is very simple, just one word:

“Bah!”
