A Billionaire CEO Brings His Child Home: The Awakening of the Stay-at-Home Dad System

After resting for five minutes, Chen Hao climbed back onto the roof and continued laying the other side.

Shen Xiaoting sat on a small stool, looking up at her father. The admiration on her little face had turned into a sense of natural pride.

Her father is good at everything, can do everything, and can do everything exceptionally well.

It was already past 3 p.m. when the last row of tiles was laid.

Chen Hao climbed down from the roof and stood outside in the courtyard, looking up at the newly renovated roof—

The gray, eco-friendly tiles were neatly laid across the entire roof, with straight lines and even spacing, gleaming faintly in the sunlight.

"Daddy! It's so beautiful!"

Shen Xiaoting jumped off the stool, ran to her father's side, and looked up at the roof with him.

Chen Hao glanced down at his daughter and smiled.

He bent down, picked up his daughter, and let her sit on his shoulders.

Shen Xiaoting giggled twice, her little hands supporting her father's head as she looked up at the roof.

"Tingting, we won't have to worry about leaks when it rains anymore."

"Mmm!" Shen Xiaoting nodded vigorously. "Daddy's so amazing!"

On the third day, Chen Hao began laying the conduit.

He first drew lines on the wall—using a chalk line to mark the positions of sockets, switches, and lights.

His technique was very skillful; he flicked the ink lines quickly and straight, without a single crooked line.

[Ding! God-level electrician skill triggered - Circuit planning: A total of 12 sockets, 6 switches, 4 light fixtures, 2 dedicated lines for air conditioning, and 1 dedicated line for water heater are installed throughout the house, meeting safety standards.]

After marking the lines, he began to cut the grooves.

He attached a grooving drill bit to an electric hammer and cut grooves along the ink lines on the wall to install conduits.

The electric hammer hummed in his hands as the drill bit cut into the brick wall, sending debris flying. But he held it firmly, creating grooves of uniform depth and width, as straight as if drawn with a ruler.

[Ding! Wall grooving completed. Super Electrician experience points +145!]

[Ding! Constitution enhancement effect triggered - Constitution +0.1, current Constitution: 14.9.]

Chen Bingzhong helped clean up the broken bricks and dust generated from the grooving.

He watched his son as he worked, and the more he looked, the more incredible it seemed.

Grooving may look simple, but it actually requires a steady hand and accurate eyesight.

The electric hammer vibrates a lot, and if an ordinary person holds it for a long time, their hand will shake, and if they shake, the groove will be broken crooked.

But his son's hands were as steady as if they were welded to the hammer drill; he dug grooves for half an hour, and every single one was straight.

"Ah Hao, you use this electric hammer better than your dad," Chen Bingzhong said.

"You've used an electric hammer?" Chen Hao asked without turning his head.

"no."

Chen Hao chuckled and continued his rant.

After cutting the groove, he began to lay the conduit.

He cut each PVC conduit to the correct size, inserted them into the grooves in the wall, and secured them with pipe clamps.

The joints are glued with PVC glue, and the corners are connected with elbows, ensuring that every joint fits perfectly.

[Ding! Conduit laying completed. Super Electrician experience points +162!]

Then comes threading the needle.

He used a wire threader to thread the wires one by one through the conduit—

2.5 square millimeter copper wire is used for ordinary sockets and switches, while 4 square millimeter copper wire is used for dedicated lines for air conditioners and water heaters.

Each thread is a different color—

The live wire is red, the neutral wire is blue, and the ground wire is yellow-green.

They were all clearly distinguished, and not a single one was connected incorrectly.

[Ding! Wire threading completed. Super Electrician experience points +138!]

[Ding! Constitution enhancement effect triggered - Constitution +0.1, current Constitution: 15.0.]

Shen Xiaoting squatted down next to her father, watching the colorful wires go in from one end of the pipe and come out from the other, and found it all very magical.

"Dad, where does electricity come from?"

"It came from the electrical wires," Chen Hao replied while threading the wire.

"Electric wires bring electricity from outside into the house, and then through sockets and switches, they deliver it to lights and appliances."

"Oh." Shen Xiaoting nodded, seemingly understanding, then asked, "Will the electricity inside the wire leak out?"

"No, the wires are covered with an insulating layer, so the electricity can't escape. But you can't touch the socket; it's live inside, and that's very dangerous."

"I know, my mom told me too that I shouldn't touch the electrical outlets." Shen Xiaoting nodded seriously.

After laying the electrical wires, Chen Hao began laying the water pipes.

The water pipes are PPR heat fusion pipes, which require a heat fusion machine to fuse the pipes and fittings together.

He turned on the heat fusion machine, waited for the temperature to rise to 260 degrees, inserted the pipe and connector into the die head of the heat fusion machine at the same time, heated it for a few seconds, and then quickly pulled it out and aligned it tightly.

His movements were quick, but every step was precise.

The heating time, withdrawal angle, insertion depth, and docking force are all controlled perfectly.

The welded pipe and joint formed a uniform raised ring, without air bubbles or misalignment, even more precise than machine-made ones.

[Ding! PPR pipe welding completed. God-level electrician experience points +178!]

Chen Bingzhong watched his son weld the connector, and couldn't help but lean closer to take a look at the joint—

Smooth, even, without a single flaw.

He shook his head and sighed.

"With your skills, you'd definitely do great business opening a plumbing and electrical installation shop in the county town."

Chen Hao smiled but didn't reply.

On the fourth day, Chen Hao began painting the walls.

He first cleaned the walls—scraping off the old plaster with a shovel and filling the cracks and pits with putty.

Scraping the wall plaster is a tedious job, but he did it very carefully, scraping every inch of the wall without missing a single corner.

[Ding! Wall cleaning completed. God-level masonry experience points +124!]

Then he started applying putty.

He used a putty knife to scrape the putty onto the wall, and with a few strokes, he pressed and smoothed it out, and the putty was evenly attached to the wall.

His technique was very smooth, and the wall surface he scraped was flat and smooth, without any seams, bubbles, or knife marks.

[Ding! Plastering completed. God-level masonry experience points +156!]

Shen Xiaoting stood beside her father, watching him apply putty, and found it very amusing.

She saw her father scrape white putty onto the gray wall, and the wall turned white, like magic.

"Dad, I want to try it too."

Chen Hao glanced down at his daughter and smiled.

He used a putty knife to pick up a little putty and, in an inconspicuous corner, taught his daughter how to scrape it.

Shen Xiaoting gripped the putty knife with both hands and smeared it forcefully onto the wall—a large patch of putty was applied, uneven in thickness and crooked.

"I'm not good at shaving," she said, a little embarrassed.

"That's great, it's amazing that you could do this well on your first shave." Chen Hao patted his daughter's head. "When you grow up, Dad will teach you."

"Okay!" Shen Xiaoting nodded happily.
