Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back

"Okay, boss, I understand."

Shi Yan felt like her thoughts had been exposed before she even started doing anything. She felt a little depressed and was thinking about how to get back at her.

Looking at the empty bowls on the table, Shi Yan stood up and pretended to clean up the dishes.

With a little force in his hand, the bottom of the bowl rubbed against the mahogany table top, making a harsh "squeak~~" sound.

Seeing the man looking up in surprise at the sudden noise, he quickly smiled apologetically at Huo Ming:

"I'm sorry, boss. I didn't hold it steady and the noise was too loud. Did I scare you?"

Huo Ming felt the harsh friction sound still lingering in his ears, but the girl had already apologized, so he had nothing to blame her for.

"It's okay, just be careful next time."

"Yes, boss."

After recovering 10%, Shi Yan felt much more comfortable. She was even humming happily while washing dishes in the kitchen.

Huo Ming returned to the kitchen with the empty bowl and saw Shi Yan humming a song with a relaxed look on her face. Suddenly, he began to doubt whether Shi Yan had made the noise on purpose.

But since it was already time for him to go to work, he couldn't delay any longer, or he would break his good habit of never being late for work.

But Huo Ming came to the conclusion without having to observe carefully whether Shi Yan had deliberately done something to make him uncomfortable.

First, the food delivered to the factory at noon contained a piece of diced chili pepper, which was very similar in color to diced carrots. Huo Ming ate it without noticing, and it was so spicy that he had to drink two glasses of water to stop the spiciness. He almost lost his composure in front of his subordinates.

When I got home from get off work in the evening, I wanted to remind the girl not to buy peppers and other things at home in the future, so that they wouldn't get mixed up and get mixed into her food.

But as soon as he opened the door, he saw the little girl's smiling face and said "You're back". Then the bag in his hand was taken away by the little girl and carried into the study.

Seeing the girl doing things properly, he said nothing. He thought that after all, they were not from the same place. The girl just liked spicy food, and he couldn't deprive her of her childhood hobby.

He had convinced himself in his heart and reached out to open the shoe cabinet, ready to take out his slippers. He looked at all the shoes in the cabinet, all neatly arranged according to material and season, except for one pair of slippers he was going to wear when he got home, which were casually stuffed in the cabinet, with his left foot and right foot switched sides, making the whole picture discordant.

Huo Ming felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw this scene. All the shoes were neatly arranged, but his pair was crooked.

Huo Ming took a deep breath, took out his slippers, and placed them straight at the entrance before changing into them. Then he put his own shoes in the shoe cabinet and placed them straight. Only after he saw that the scene was harmonious did he close the door of the shoe cabinet.

But this is not the end. Just after passing the entrance, near the living room, there is a chest of drawers with a vase placed in the middle of it.

But now the vase is placed five centimeters more to the left, and the pattern on the front of the vase is facing the wall.

Huo Ming reached out to adjust the position of the vase until it returned to the center of the chest of drawers with the pattern on the front facing outwards. Only then did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Walking further in, there are four chairs at the dining table. The other three are neatly inserted under the table, but only one has been pulled out and placed there carelessly.

All the doors of the rooms were open, except that of his bedroom, which was half open.

The quilt on the bed was clearly made neatly, but the lower right corner had been lifted up.

.........

Huo Ming is not a fool. He can no longer tell that all these things were done intentionally by the new girl in the family. He doesn't need to be a factory manager and might as well find a village to farm.

However, Huo Ming did not expect that when the little girl first came yesterday, she looked timid and inexperienced. After spending less than half a day with him, she discovered that he had obsessive-compulsive disorder. He became annoyed when he saw the discordant pictures, and if he did not correct the discordant parts, he would feel uncomfortable as if there was a thorn in his heart.

Could it be that he had only been with the girl for less than half a day and he had already offended her, so she used these little things to irritate him?

Huo Ming thought about it for a long time. The girl was working very efficiently yesterday. She was also fine this morning when she got up. The only mistake she made was that she accidentally made the bowl scratch on the table, making a harsh sound.

Before this voice appeared, I told the girl that she could look at him but not like him. Could it be that the girl fell in love with him so quickly, turned love into hate, and wanted to take revenge on him?

Thinking of this, Huo Ming suddenly felt that this was a very fresh experience. He was telling the girl the truth. He was really not interested in the relationship between men and women.

After all, in his opinion, if a man and a woman want to develop a further relationship, they must first understand each other and focus on this person.

But when he saw the other person's uncombed hair, wrinkled clothes, and unbrushed shoes, Huo Ming lost interest.

He didn't want to let a disorderly person join his orderly life and disrupt his habits. Just thinking about that feeling was bad.

But the little girl was different. She could have done everything perfectly yesterday, but today she made trouble just to piss him off. However, she still had some sense and thought that everything could be solved by him with just a little effort.

So Huo Ming thought about it and decided to see what other tricks the little girl had.

He put the magazines that had been deliberately moved on the bookshelf back to their original places, and Shi Yan came to call him for dinner.

"Boss, you can eat now."

While Shi Yan was shouting, she was still observing Huo Ming's expression, but she found that he was still smiling slightly and did not look annoyed at all. Shi Yan could not help but wonder if the place where she made the move was too hidden and Huo Ming did not notice.

But when she turned around and looked into the restaurant, she saw that the chairs and vases had indeed been returned to their original places and she had not moved them, so it could only have been Huo Ming who did it.

Shi Yan couldn't help but wonder if she had guessed wrong from the beginning, and Huo Ming didn't have any obsessive-compulsive disorder at all, but was simply used to holding himself to high standards?
