This is the wealthy area in the south of the city.Although it is a suburb, it is a villa connected to another villa - speaking of it, if it is not a suburb, a villa with such a large area can be afforded by a wealthy family in a sea market where every inch of land is expensive.

Gui Yan was standing at the door of one of the villas, carrying a dilapidated backpack—all his belongings were contained in it, and timidly dared not go in.He is not very smart, but he also knows how out of place he is in this place wearing street stall clothes that cost ten yuan a piece and cost two pieces at 15 yuan.Shrinking his head, Guiyan rang the doorbell.

It was the butler who came to open the door.The middle-aged man in a well-pressed suit saw Gui Yan, looked him up and down, his eyes were clear, and asked, "Gui Yan?"

Guiyan agreed in a low voice.He dare not speak loudly here.

The butler didn't care about his taciturnity, and led him into the villa. He said as he walked, "The room has been packed for you. It's the guest room on the second floor—the third floor is where the master lives. You can't go up without his permission."

Gui Yan turned his head around, felt something was wrong, and asked in a low voice: "Then...then what should I do?" He wanted to ask about his work.

Unexpectedly, the housekeeper was stunned when he heard the words, and he didn't react for a while, "What are you doing?"

Gui Yan was asked back, thinking that he had made a mistake, his voice became quieter, and he said timidly: "I... my father said, you are short of servants here, so... tell me to come here to work."

After hearing his words, the butler did not answer directly, but remained silent for a while, and said, "I'll take you back to the room first, and we'll talk about it when the master comes back."

The feeling of uneasiness is getting stronger and stronger, but Guiyan can't figure out what's wrong—his head is always chaotic, and he can't explain why when things happen.But even though he hadn't seen him for more than ten years, he thought that his father would not harm him, so he obediently followed the housekeeper to the second floor, waiting for the master to pronounce his sentence on him.

But the return was a long wait.He came after three o'clock in the afternoon, and the master didn't come back until it was time for dinner.

When it was time for dinner, the butler arranged dinner for him.Gui Yan sat alone in the dining room and finished his meal, and did not go up to the second floor, but sat on the spot with an upright posture, waiting for his master to come back.

But the master never came back. It was not until Guiyan's shoulders were sore and his waist hurt from sitting that he heard the sound of the car engine.Gui Yan saw the housekeeper go out to greet him, so he hurriedly followed behind him - the only person he knew was the housekeeper in the entire villa, and subconsciously wanted to get closer to the housekeeper.

He chased the butler to the door, and saw a tall man push the car door down, he should be the owner.

Sure enough, the butler stepped forward and asked courteously, "Master, have you eaten yet?"

"Well," the tall man replied, "tell the kitchen people to rest."

The housekeeper responded, and the master continued to walk forward. When he was about to reach the door, he saw Guiyan, smiled at him, and said, "You came quite quickly."

Guiyan knew that the master was talking about him, but he dared not answer.His brain is not working well, but his intuition is surprisingly accurate.Now his animal-like intuition told him that the man in front of him was dangerous, and he looked at himself like a hunter seeing his prey.He was so frightened that he lowered his head in a panic, like an ostrich burying his head in the sand, not daring to meet his master's gaze.

The housekeeper saw something was wrong, fearing that there was a misunderstanding, he hurriedly said, "Gui Yan said that his father introduced him to work here."

"Part-time job?" The master raised his eyebrows, looking very interested.He smiled again, and said: "It's windy outside, let's go in and talk about it."

After entering the house, the master was sitting on the sofa, Gui Yan stood in front of him with his head down.

The butler poured a glass of water for the master, and the master took a sip before saying calmly, "What did your father say?"

"Father said... that you are short of manpower here, so he asked me to come here to work for you." Gui Yan's voice became lower and lower as he spoke, and he could hardly hear clearly at the end.

Gui Yan's words were vague, but the master's heart was very clear.He sneered in his heart, thinking that returning home and reconciling is easy to calculate.But he didn't intend to make it clear, but said: "Stretch out your hand."

Gui Yan was taken aback, he had interviewed for a part-time job before, and he had never been asked such a strange request by the interviewer.But he had an inexplicable fear of the man in front of him, and he didn't dare to disobey him, so he obediently stretched out his hand and handed it to him.

The master touched his hand, pressed it twice, and then let go.Gui Yan heaved a sigh of relief, retracted his hand, and couldn't help touching it with the other hand——the touch left by the master has not disappeared, and his hand seems to be still being held.

"Help me make the bed." The host said suddenly.

Gui Yan was distracted, and subconsciously said, "What?"

"Help me make my bed, at eight o'clock every morning, and the rest of the time is up to you."

Gui Yan whispered, "Just...just do these?"

The master looked at him with a half-smile, and asked, "Otherwise? What else do you want to do?"

After seeing Guiyan, he didn't dare to speak any more, and the hall fell into silence.

Gui Yan is most afraid of such silence, he is timid and doesn't know what to do.The master didn't care about his embarrassment, and didn't give him any more instructions, but called the housekeeper to give him some instructions.They didn't speak loudly, so they couldn't hear what the master and the housekeeper said clearly. They only knew that the housekeeper went upstairs after listening, and came down with a stack of papers not long after.

The housekeeper put the stack of papers in front of Guiyan, took down the pen hanging in the upper pocket, and handed it to Guiyan.

The host said: "This is the contract, you signed it."

After all, he signed a contract when he worked before.He didn't read the lengthy terms in front, but directly turned to the signature on the last page—he hadn't studied for a few years, and he couldn't understand the previous terms, so he didn't read them at all.

Seeing Gui Yan's actions, the master's eyes flashed a hint of disappointment that was unclear.

Gui Yan obediently wrote his name on the back of Party B, writing very carefully stroke by stroke.After signing his name, he turned his gaze to Party A - Gu Xingzhi.This should be the owner's name.

After seeing Guiyan and signing his name, the butler put away the contract and handed it to Gu Xingzhi.Gu Xingzhi took it, put it in his arms, and then said: "It's too late today, you should go back to sleep first."

He hesitated and said, "Sleeping... on the second floor?" The housekeeper said that the second floor is a guest room, and he is a servant, so how can he be qualified to sleep on the second floor?

"Yes," Gu Xingzhi said, "The servant's room is already full, and there is no place for you to sleep."

Gui Yan accepted this explanation, but he didn't dare to really regard the second floor as his own room.

After returning to the room, Gui Yan's heart was relieved.The housekeeper didn't give him any clothes, and Gui Yan didn't dare to ask for them.He dug out a fairly formal dress from his small suitcase, carefully folded it and put it on the bedside before going to wash.Before going to bed, he deliberately set the alarm clock at six o'clock, thinking that he must wake up earlier on the first day of work in order to leave a good impression on the master.
