Hello, Mr. Gu.

I'm your live-in housekeeper, Shi Shuangjiao.

Nice to meet you.

Hello.

Come in.

Disinfect yourself and change your shoes.

Should I go and put my stuff in a room first?

The bedroom is this way, right?

Do it later.

Do you want some water?

How…

how have you been?

I'm fine.

How did you get here?

Why is your suitcase so small?

I took the bus.

I didn't bring many clothes. I won't be staying here for long anyway.

Who said it won't be long?

If Dongxian is in charge of everything in the company,

then you're in charge of my house.

Okay.

So what should I… do now?

We should…

we should go over the details of your job.

Let's discuss the three rules in this house…

Let's make it 30.

Thirty rules?

Yes.

I'm very strict when it comes to cleaning.

Three rules can't cover everything.

Come on.

Remember this.

Before you come in,

make sure you sanitize your whole body.

When you're in the house, wash your hands immediately.

Follow the seven-step technique, and wash your hands at least twice.

After cleaning the floor,

remember to use disinfectants with a steam mop to sterilize everything.

I'm sorry.

This way, please.

Disinfect the toilet and sink

once every six hours.

Put a garment bag over each set of clean clothes.

Arrange them from light to dark colors.

Cutlery must be sterilized with high heat every day.

I'll print them out on a list.

Remember to check the list every day.

Every hidden corner of the countertop, table, chair, cupboard,

under the sofa, behind the cabinet,

the blind spots on the ceiling, and all dusty spots.

Remember to clean them up.

The lights too.

Your outfit is not compliant with my requirements.

Mr. Gu.

Thank you for the clothes.

They fit me perfectly.

You can get to work now.

Okay, Mr. Gu.

I think I know what's going on with you.

Your emotions are unstable right now.

Maybe it's because you just got into college

and the pressure has eased.

My advice to you is to focus on your work.

Get some rest.

Lu Xian, are you listening to me?

It's 1:00 p.m.

You got me out during my lunch break just to ask me one question.

That is whether or not Zhu Yan likes you.

Yes, please help me out.

This is psychotherapy, not relationship counseling.

What's the difference?

Please help me.

-You're a relationship expert, right? -Stop.

"Relationship expert"?

How can you tell?

There are many girls following you around every day.

They are my clients, okay?

You've worked with many cases.

Please help me out.

What should I do now?

HOW TO TELL IF SOMEONE LIKES YOU? FIND OUT NOW!

Your heart beats faster whenever she shows up.

You feel embarrassed and excited.

But how does she feel about you?

Should you make a move?

Why don't you take the test and find out?

I SAW HER TALKING TO A MAN…

"I saw her talking to a man…"

What the hell?

BOSS CAN YOU COME AND CLEAN MY ROOM?

TEN WAYS TO FIND OUT IF A PERSON LIKES YOU

Why didn't you take your phone with you?

I forgot.

Let's add another rule.

Bring your phone with you at all times. Always keep in touch with me.

Answer my messages within three minutes.

But when I'm working,

I sometimes don't hear my phone.

Turn the volume up to maximum.

Okay, Mr. Gu.

Are you out here specifically to remind me to check my phone?

I came to drink some water.

Just a reminder.

-It stings. -What's wrong?

My eyes sting.

Stay still.

No.

It stings.

Try to look into her eyes.

If she stares at you for a long time, it shows how much she loves you.

I'm sorry, Mr. Gu.

I was careful. I didn't touch your hair.

If she keeps on staring at you,

it means you have something on your face.

HOW AWKWARD

Throw out the trash immediately. Why is it on the table?

I'm not done yet, so I--

I'll throw it away when I'm done.

Don't touch me.

I'll do it.

He's really acting a bit strange this time.

Sometimes, he observes me quietly.

And sometimes, he will suddenly appear behind me

and look at me strangely.

Tell me.

Could it be that he--

No, don't overthink it.

How about this set meal?

Didn't you say that if a guy likes you,

he'll give you some sort of sign?

I'll have these two.

He's probably just bored.

Let me tell you. Don't get the wrong idea.

Otherwise, it will be very awkward for you in the future.

Bored?

Do they wipe your face with a tissue out of boredom?

Do they pretend to drink water out of boredom?

If he's bored, will he…

-Why don't we swap water for cola? -Zhu Yan.

-Are you listening? -I don't drink Coke.

I'm listening. Just talk.

-Mineral water it is. -I mean…

I think his illness is worsening again.

He's demanding more sanitation than ever.

-I'm not sure if I can go on like this. -Please hurry.

Let's go. It's starting soon.

Come on.

Something came up. I have to go.

Who called you?

-No one. -So mysterious.

Who is she?

Lulu.

My high school classmate.

She always wanted to watch this movie.

That's why I brought her along.

If there's nothing else, I'm leaving.

If the love from your client is one-sided

and keeps failing,

what would you have him do?

You don't understand how Zhu Yan feels.

All you can do is,

be yourself.

"Understand how Zhu Yan feels"?

Hello, miss. Thank you for the movie.

You don't have to call me that.

Do you want me to call you "Aunt"?

I see you aren't wearing much.

What's wrong? I think it's pretty good.

I'm still young.

Are you still wearing your thermal underwear?

The movie is starting. Let's go in.

-Okay, let's go. -Come on.

I want some too.

Is it good?

Thank you.

Zhu Yan.

Do you have a sore throat?

No.

I just don't feel well today.

If you have a sore throat,

just go out and cough.

You are disturbing other people here.

I wonder which one Mr. Gu will like.

If you are hesitating,

just buy them all.

What are you doing here?

I just remembered I need to buy something.

Call me if you need anything.

I'll buy it for you.

Fortunately, it's not crowded here.

Or you'll get sick again.

What were you going to buy?

Why don't you look for fruit? I'll shop for my own things.

I'm sorry.

I'll take these.

Okay, I'll get you a new pair.

Thank you.

What else haven't you bought? Here is some fruit.

What else do we need?

Would you like to see our new couple pajamas?

It's a limited edition by a famous designer.

Today is the last day of the promotion.

It's okay. We're not--

I just remembered I need to get new pajamas.

A couple set is cheaper than just buying one.

-Let's do it since it's cheaper. -What color combination do you want?

There are more here.

Why don't you ask your girlfriend?

You've misunderstood. I'm not his girlfriend.

I'm sorry.

Ask your wife, then.

What color do you like?

The pink and black one, then.

Okay.

Thank you.

Mr. Gu.

I've put away the groceries.

Where should I put these slippers?

They are for you.

Your slippers are too big. You might fall.

Thank you, Mr. Gu.

Mr. Gu, I'll get back to work.

Hold on.

What's wrong, Mr. Gu?

Stay still.

Why did you put it on without disinfecting it?

I'm sorry. I'll change it right away.

Stay still.

This whole area and the sofa.

Disinfect them all again.

And wash all the clothes we just bought.

You know how, right?

Wash them with the washing machine, right?

But wash dark clothes and light clothes,

towels and socks separately.

Use different types of laundry detergent for them.

I marked all of them.

Also,

make sure the laundry is sterilized in the dryer.

Remember this.

Latex, sponge, rubber, and silk materials

must not be put into the dryer.

Or they will get wrinkled.

All right.

I'm not done yet.

Pay attention to the sun-dried laundry.

There might be some unseen dirt particles in the air

that attach to the laundry.

If they're dirty, you have to wash them again.

I'll check.

I can't check if I can't see those particles.

Disinfect them all properly, okay?

You can rest after that.

Okay.

A domineering mysophobe indeed.

That's funny.

-Any post-credits scenes? -I'm sure there's none.

Here.

Don't cry.

It's all fake in the movies.

That's because you know nothing about love.

I…

I sure don't know much about love,

but isn't there a song that goes like this?

"A man shouldn't make a woman cry."

So,

if it were me,

I wouldn't make the woman I love cry.

Aren't you making me cry now?

I'm kidding.

Let's go home.

-Come on. -Okay.

I'm cold.

Didn't I tell you you're not wearing enough?

Don't catch cold.

Thank you.

I'll get going.

I'll take you home.

Junjie.

Can you give me a ride?

The streetlamp in front of my house isn't working.

I'm scared.

Why don't we take Zhu Yan home first?

And then you'll take me home?

It's okay.

I was going to do some shopping anyway.

Zhu--

Is Lu Xian playing a trick on me?

Is that kind of romantic movie boring for you?

No.

I think it was quite touching.

Were you moved too?

Which part moved you the most?

Well,

I think some of its pieces of music were nice.

And some scenes.

I think they were captured beautifully.

That's it?

To be honest, I don't think it made sense.

The male lead was too irrational.

But that's love.

Love makes no sense.

It's something you do even if it's wrong.

I have to thank you, then,

for treating me to a movie today.

You're welcome.

It was covered by my company anyway.

I should be the one thanking you,

for watching it with me.

I told you.

If you need anything,

please feel free to ask.

Does Mr. Gu know you came out for a movie with me?

He doesn't know yet.

I'll report to him later.

He doesn't need them now.

Why make me sterilize them?

I'll have to wash them again when he uses them.

What's the point of sterilizing them so many times?

What's wrong with having some germs? Is that bad?

Isn't it good to boost your immune system?

UNIFON

Bath towel.

Bath towels must be washed in water at less than 35 degrees Celsius.

Add alkaline detergent and hand-wash them.

Mr. Gu prepared them for me.

It smells so good.

It smells like the sun.

I love how clean it is.

Does Mr. Gu know you came out for a movie with me?

Dongxian, what brings you here?

Mr. Gu, I have something to tell you.

What's wrong?

Come on in.

Actually, I--

I'm done.

Dongxian.

What brings you here?

I'm sorry to interrupt.

Not at all.

I'm here to work.

Work?

-I'll leave you guys alone. I'm leaving. -Hold on. You seem to be mistaken.

What are you saying? You're not working now.

It's true. I am working right now.

I'm just doing my job to earn my keep.

Why is it always so awkward?

I'll leave you guys alone. I have to go now.

I'm sorry.

-Dongxian. -I won't say anything.

Li Dongxian!

What is it?

He still doesn't get it, does he?

No.

I think he does.

He understands it completely.

Dongxian…

Do you think he misunderstood?

A misunderstanding?

What do you think he misunderstood?

It's just…

Maybe he misunderstood that we are living together.

We are living together.

I'm not talking about living together like this.

I mean, that kind of "living together."

So what kind

of "living together" are we?

I'm going to my room.

Did I go too far?

So what kind

of "living together" are we?

Didn't you ask me

why I kissed you?

It's because I like you.

Do you like me too?

I…

DAD

Hello, Dad?

Shuangjiao.

Why are you calling so early?

Is it?

It's past 9 a.m.

Shuangjiao, I'm here too.

-Lu Xian, why are you there? -That's right, Lu Xian.

I'm helping your dad fold the laundry.

How's life in Beijing?

Is there anything you want? I'll send you some.

Remember to always carry a power bank with you.

Then we wouldn't lose contact.

-I'm always online. I'm always there. -Hey.

Shuangjiao, are you busy?

Busy.

Of course I'm busy. I'm busy every day.

You went all the way there.

Don't just work.

-Walk around occasionally. -Yes, do some shopping.

Yes. The weather is so nice today.

I'll go out later.

Dad, I'm in a bit of a situation right now.

I need to go. My colleague's calling me.

Shuangjiao, I'm free nowadays.

-Should I visit you in Beijing? -No. Don't worry, goodbye.

Look at her.

She seems busy.

Still, she is probably doing well in Beijing.

That's right.

I forgot something in the kitchen.

Due to convection, temperatures have dropped with precipitation

in most of the Huabei area.

There's a storm in Beijing.

Some areas are affected by thunderstorms.

Warnings have been issued in several counties.

A reminder for everyone.

Protect yourself and avoid going out as much as possible.

Shuangjiao said the weather is great in Beijing.

Is she not even in Beijing?

Hello. Who are you looking for?

Is there a girl here called Shi Shuangjiao?

Shi Shuangjiao?

Hold on, I'll check.

Hi, are you looking for Shuangjiao?

May I ask why?

A friend of mine recommended her as a cleaning lady.

I happened to be passing by, so I thought I'd make an appointment.

Today's not your lucky day.

She recently quit.

Do you know which company she moved to?

Has she already moved?

I didn't know.

She's not in Beijing or the office.

-Perhaps… -…intelligent cleaning…

No, thank you.

Are you sure you won't have a try?

Our company's robot vacuums are as good as Shuangjiao.

Why are you here?

So this is what you meant by…

working in Beijing?

My dad found out too?

If your dad had found out, I wouldn't have come alone.

That's good.

Don't go inside.

I…

Go home first. I'll explain later.

Don't let Mr. Gu see you.

He's here?

That's good.

I want to know why he tricked you into coming here.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kept it from you guys.

But I volunteered to work here. It has nothing to do with Mr. Gu.

Why are you here?

I'm bringing her home.

Mr. Gu, I'm sorry.

I didn't tell my family that I'm working here.

Give me some time to explain to Lu Xian.

I'm sorry, but could you excuse us?

Mr. Lu.

This is my house. Why should I leave?

Lu Xian, don't be angry.

It's my fault for lying to you.

But if I told my dad that I'm working here,

he definitely wouldn't have agreed.

Since you know your dad wouldn't approve, why did you take the job?

Come home with me now.

I can't leave.

Mr. Gu needs me.

Can you promise

to keep it a secret from my dad?

Okay, I promise.

On one condition.

I'm staying.

I disagree.

You have no right to stay here.

As your former therapist,

I don't think you can recover so soon.

For your health and Shuangjiao's safety,

I must stay here.

You are his therapist?

-What a coincidence. Why didn't you-- -Former therapist.

Also, I know my situation best.

If I really need it,

I'll get a new therapist.

Thank you.

Please leave.

You will need to adjust to the new therapist.

You can't ignore your condition.

I told you.

I am fine right now.

Let's find out.

Shuangjiao, take down everything I say.

There are five questions. You will pass if you get three right.

-Okay. -Shall we begin?

Let's start.

How many times do you bathe a day?

Once.

That's not right.

I saw you taking a shower twice today.

Shuangjiao, deduct one point.

Did any indirect contact cause you to experience OCD recently?

No.

What are you doing? Put it down.

It's quite the opposite. Deduct one point.

I don't have OCD. I just hate you.

Deduct the points.

You've already had two points deducted.

You'll fail if you lose another point.

Have you had insomnia or experienced shortness of breath lately?

You're thinking for too long.

Deduct one point.

Hold on.

Who are you to deduct the points?

It looks like you really need treatment.

I think so too.

You two.

I'm perfectly fine.

I'm much better now.

Mr. Gu.

I knew all along that you secretly clean your room again every night.

If it's curable,

even if the chance is very slim, we can't give up.

If I really need a therapist,

it won't be him.

Why do you hate him so much?

Am I interrupting you two by staying here?

Shuangjiao and I are just employer-and-employee.

That means we're just a doctor and a client.

You're avoiding the problem.

Or would you rather risk worsening your condition

than letting me stay here?

Are you worried that…

I'm not afraid of you.

That's great.

-Let me move in, then. -So be it.

I'll give you just one week.

You'd better use your so-called professional skills and cure me.
