Monday, 5:45 a.m
"Let's go!" Lai Jiayi whispered to Yaya as she sneaked out of her room down to the first floor.
"Mn, let's go, quack!" Yaya happily followed after Lai Jiayi. He looked at the girl's back with slightly complicated eyes.
The day was cold, yet Lai Jiayi only wore a long sleeve black t-shirt and a black jacket. She wore a pair of long dark blue jeans and also a couple of brown, old-looking shoes.
The girl didn't wear a scarf or anything like gloves to warm herself.
It's still early in the morning and since the weather in this era was chaotic, even though yesterday was summer...today became winter.
It would be freezing indeed.
Yaya felt pity for Lai Jiayi, seeing the girl happily went to work very early in the morning wearing not-so-warm clothes.
Her ponytail was swaying as she walked. From behind, she looked cheerful despite feeling cold.
"What are you doing there? Hurry!" Lai Jiayi suddenly turned around and scolded Yaya for stopping on his track without him knowing.
Yaya was startled, yet his eyes caught the sight of Lai Jiayi's ears and nose, which had turned red.
They had just arrived at the first floor, not even coming out of the internet cafe yet, but Lai Jiayi…
She obviously already felt cold. Look at how her nose turned red, and her ears followed later, but she could still be so energetic?
'Ahhh, I'm so frustrated!'
"Yes, yes, sorry, quack..." Yaya apologized casually before he flew toward Lai Jiayi and snuggled into her jacket.
He immediately activated his heat system making Lai Jiayi's cold body slowly warmed up.
"Ahhh, so warm! Thanks~" Lai Jiayi spoke, and steam blew out from her mouth. The girl rubbed her two pale palms together as she sneaked out from the internet cafe.
No one saw a little girl with her high ponytail slowly disappear into the far street since the part-time employee in the cafe was currently sleeping. Not to mention that the sky was still dark.
Lai Jiayi successfully went away without anyone noticing.
6:00 a.m
"Okay, so...this is my first work, " Lai Jiayi put on a green medical mask she received earlier and looked down at the mop and broom she was holding.
Just now, she had confirmed her job, and these tools appeared in the waiting room for a cleaning service.
'Hmmm, this apartment isn't using a cleaning robot to do the cleaning job? But why-'
An abrupt thought flashed by her mind, but Yaya's voice disturbed her.
"We can start our plan now, right quack?" Yaya still stayed inside Lai Jiayi's clothes even after the girl changed her clothes into an orange cleaning service uniform.
'These clothes are so baggy that I think I can swim around inside!' He happily stayed inside the girl's clothes.
Hearing Yaya's words, Lai Jiayi nodded slightly. "Right. We will start the plan now, so...we have to be serious!"
Lai Jiayi gripped a bucket of water on her right hand tightly as she spoke. Her left hand was holding a broom and a mop.
She looked ready to work.
"Let's go, quack!" Yaya's eyes sparkled as the two of them entered an old-fashioned elevator.
"What an old elevator, quack…" Yaya commented.
The elevator didn't teleport the user instantly to their floor, unlike the usual elevator. It took a few seconds to arrive at the highest floor of the apartment, the seventh floor.
TING.
The elevator door opened, and Lai Jiayi came out wearing a full-suit of a professional cleaning service.
Half of her face was covered with the green medical mask she wore before, only revealing her clear amber eyes.
Her beauty was instantly hidden underneath the mask and the weird-looking clothes.
"This floor is the one I'm assigned with?" Lai Jiayi asked Yaya with a rather doubtful tone as she scanned her surroundings.
How could she not be doubtful when this floor looked so simple?
All she could see was a vast area painted white from the ceiling, the wall to the floor.
But because there were several tall plants at each corner and hanging plants on the ceiling, it looked rather fresh.
'This apartment is so...simple.'
"This is indeed where Zhao Yang lives, quack, " Yaya shrugged, telling the girl the truth.
In disbelief, Lai Jiayi subconsciously looked up and saw a row of neon lamps, which could be said to be old-dated, yet it looked clean, pure, spotless. One could guess what kind of man living here.
'Okay, the apartment is old-fashioned for the prince of technology but...I have to admit this place really looks like Zhao Yang's place…'
Lai Jiayi thought in her mind witnessing the pure, clean state of her surroundings when Yaya spoke again.
"See that door at the end of this corridor, quack?" Yaya suddenly said, "That's his place and next to him– " he abruptly stopped.
The duck hurriedly covered his mouth and shook his head, realizing his mistake.
'I shouldn't disclose any information about other players unless Lai Jiayi traded it with her points! Almost forgot, ah!'
Thankfully Lai Jiayi didn't really pay attention to what Yaya said as her mind was occupied with a way to make this whole corridor sparkled like new.
"Hmmm, where should I start…" The girl mumbled as she scanned her surroundings.
A second later, she saw that at the end of the corridor, there's a huge glass window where the sunlight came through. The window was also right next to Zhao Yang house's door.
Seeing this, Lai Jiayi's eyes brightened.
'Let's start by cleaning that! That window is eye-catching, Zhao Yang will surely notice it.'
"Let's go. We have to clean this place until it shines like a diamond!" Lai Jiayi excitedly walked to the end of the corridor to clean the big window next to the target's house.
As she cleaned it, the girl noticed something. "Wow, this window is so big…" Lai Jiayi gasped as she scrubbed the window clean while standing still.
At this point, the window looked like a glass wall instead because of how huge it was.
The window covered the whole wall at the end of the corridor, allowing people to look outside the apartment. From this height, one could see the scenery down there once the sky isn't dark anymore.
Sadly since the day was still early, it's too dark outside for anyone to see anything. Lai Jiayi was about to look out but was disappointed instead.
"I can't see anything…" Lai Jiayi sighed and sadly looked away from the glass wall.
'Forget it. It's not the time to enjoy the scenery outside. Now I have to work.'
Let's just begin her plan, operation,
'TO BE NOTICED BY CLEANING!'
