Today, the sand sculpture accidentally dropped a few crumbs on the carpet while eating snacks. Seeing this, I couldn’t help but scold him for a few sentences to make sure he would be more careful in the future.
Although this kind of fluffy carpet looked nice, it was very troublesome to clean up. Sometimes, I would give extra money to the cleaning aunt when she cleans it.
The sand sculpture seemed a little unhappy when I said this. In a huff, he told me he would help me clean the carpet and that I didn’t have to pay him a single cent.
→_→ Hehe, did I look like I cared for money?
I was just scolding him for making the carpet dirty!
Cheap goods usually aren’t good, and he’s providing his services for free? I declined his offer without a second thought.
However, this guy was adamant on helping me clean the carpet. He even went to the storage room to find the vacuum cleaner himself.
Fine. ╮(╯-╰)╭ Since he was so persistent about it, I didn’t stop him.
Let this guy see how difficult it is to clean the carpet. Maybe he won’t be so careless next time.
Reality proved I underestimated how much of a sand sculpture he really was.
He urged me to quickly get back to work, but as soon as I sat down, I heard the sound of moving furniture in the living room.
He’s just cleaning the carpet! Why does it sound like he’s having a pre-Lunar New Year clean up?
A bit uneasy, I quietly sneaked over to take a look.
It turned out this guy was placing the floor lamp on top of the carpet. It seemed like he wanted to use it to fix the carpet in place.
Hn… expectations are premeditated disappointments1.
The floor lamp is of minimalistic design and isn’t very heavy, so the carpet will still move when he vacuums it.
This guy also appeared to have discovered this problem. He sat on the sofa dispiritedly and took out his phone.
Just when I thought he was giving up, my phone suddenly rang. He had sent me a message.
Unexpectedly, he asked if I had double-sided tape…
With a faint suspicion in my heart, I asked him what he was going to use it for.
Instead of answering, he asked one more time if I had double-sided tape.
I suspected that this guy wanted to stick the four corners of the carpet to the ground before cleaning it.
QAQ What does he want to do with my floor? The left-over traces of the double-sided tape will be very ugly!
I was silent for a while before I decided to save my floor. Lying, I said I didn’t have double-sided tape.
Upon seeing my reply, this guy sighed and lay on the sofa like a dried salted fish.
Thinking that he had given up by then, I was about to head back to my work when this guy did something I would never forget for the rest of my life.
He opened the refrigerator, took out a can of coke, opened it, drank two sips, and then poured the rest onto the carpet.
Stupefied, I stood there unable to process what he was doing.
He went back to the sofa, expression calm, and sent me another message, “I accidentally spilled coke on the carpet. QAQ I’ll get you a new one tomorrow.”
Emmm, accidentally spilled it? He obviously did it on purpose!
If you didn’t want to clean the carpet, just say so. Was it necessary to do so much?

If only the mc isn’t there and honestly working, he wouldn’t think this guy would do something like that 😂
