A Billionaire CEO Brings His Child Home: The Awakening of the Stay-at-Home Dad System
Chapter 46: In just 8 days, the old house was completely transformed.
"Dad, is this table for me?"
"Yes, this is for you. From now on, you can draw, read, and write here."
"So beautiful!"
Shen Xiaoting jumped off the chair, ran to the bedside, touched the outline of the little rabbit on the headboard, and then squatted down to look at the space under the bed.
Then she ran to the bookshelf and put her fairy tale books in one by one.
"Dad, I have a place to put my books!"
Chen Hao stood at the door, watching his daughter run around in her little room, touching this and looking at that, the smile on her little face never fading.
A warm feeling welled up in his heart, a feeling that was very warm and full.
Chen Bingzhong stood in the corridor, looking at the furniture his son had made for his granddaughter, his eyes a little red.
He didn't say anything, he just stood at the door with his thermos cup in his hand, watching for a long time.
On the evening of the eighth day, the renovation project was completed.
Chen Hao stood in front of the old house, looking at the completely renovated building.
The roof is covered with neat, gray, eco-friendly tiles.
The walls are painted with white latex paint, and are smooth and even.
The windows are double-glazed aluminum alloy windows, making the room bright and airy.
The door is a dark gray security door, sturdy and solid.
The ground in the yard is newly paved with cement, and it is flat and clean.
He pushed open the door and went inside.
The floor of the main room is made of light gray antique-style bricks with straight grout lines.
The walls are snow-white, and a simple ceiling light hangs above, casting a soft glow.
On the left is Tingting's room, with pink walls and a pink lamp. Inside, there is a small bed, a small table, a small chair, a small bookshelf, and a toy storage rack...
It's all red oak, the natural wood color, which, when paired with the pink walls, creates a warm and lovely atmosphere.
To the right is his bedroom, with dark gray walls—
He used dark gray latex paint, which, when paired with light gray floor tiles, created a calm and sophisticated look.
The room contains a large bed, a wardrobe, and a bedside table, all made of red oak. They are not painted, but only coated with a layer of clear wood wax oil, preserving the natural texture and color of the wood.
Behind the main room are the kitchen and the bathroom.
The kitchen countertop is custom-made from solid wood, with a stainless steel sink embedded in it, and the faucet is a pull-out type.
The stove can be used for both liquefied gas and induction cooking, and the range hood has a strong suction power so that no smoke escapes when cooking.
The bathroom has white wall tiles and gray floor tiles. It features a separate wet and dry area and is fully equipped with a toilet, sink, bathtub, and shower.
The entire house had no smell of paint or glue, only the fresh scent of wood and a faint lime smell from the latex paint.
All building materials are environmentally friendly, and all furniture is made of solid wood with mortise and tenon joints. There is not a single piece of MDF, not a drop of glue, so you don't have to worry about formaldehyde, benzene, or any other harmful substances.
Chen Hao took Tingting on a walk around the house. Every time Tingting entered a room, she would exclaim "Wow!" Her expression changed from surprise to excitement, and from excitement to happiness.
Chen Bingzhong and Meng Meiling received a call from their son and came to see the renovated old house.
Meng Meiling was stunned as soon as she entered the room. She stood in the middle of the main room with her mouth open and her eyes wide open, unable to say a word for a long time.
"This...this is that old house?" Her voice trembled slightly.
"Mm." Chen Hao nodded.
Meng Meiling walked to the wall, reached out and touched the surface; it was smooth, flat, and shiny white.
She looked down at the ground again; the light gray antique-style bricks had straight seams and were as smooth as a mirror.
She walked to Tingting's room and saw the pink walls, pink lamp, light wood bed and table. Her eyes immediately welled up with tears.
"Ah Hao, you...you got yourself into this state in just eight days?"
"Um."
Are you alone?
"Dad handed me some things."
Meng Meiling turned to look at Chen Bingzhong. Chen Bingzhong nodded without saying a word, but his eyes said it all.
His son, in just eight days, single-handedly transformed a dilapidated old house that was on the verge of collapse into a house even more beautiful than a new one.
"This child..." Meng Meiling's tears fell, she wiped them away with the back of her hand, then smiled, "This child, how come you can do everything?"
Chen Hao smiled and picked up his daughter: "Mom, we'll stay here tonight."
"Okay, it's good to live here, it's good to live here." Meng Meiling nodded repeatedly, "This house is even more beautiful than our home."
Chen Bingzhong finally spoke up from the side:
"What do you mean by 'more beautiful than our house'? Our little shop is just a warehouse compared to this."
Meng Meiling rolled her eyes at him, but didn't argue, because her husband was right.
Viewers in the live stream saw the renovated old house from a bird's-eye view—from the main room to the bedroom, from the kitchen to the bathroom, from Tingting's room to the ground in the yard.
The comment section has been completely overrun.
"My God!!! Is this the same house???"
"Eight days! Only eight days! By one person!"
"This renovation is even more beautiful than the one I did with the 300,000 yuan I spent hiring a renovation company."
"Tingting's room is so cute! The pink walls paired with the natural wood furniture are absolutely stunning!"
"Mortise and mortise joints! The streamer used only mortise and mortise joints! This is the pinnacle of traditional Chinese woodworking!"
"All solid wood, no glue, no formaldehyde, the anchor is so good to her daughter."
"I watched the entire live stream on my knees."
"Hey streamer, why don't you start a renovation company? I'll contact you first."
Gifts started raining down on the screen: hearts, lollipops, sunglasses, bunny ears, heart shapes with hands, confetti cannons, hot air balloons, love launchers, helicopters, Porsches, carnivals, TikTok No. 1...
Various gifts were presented one after another, with special effects filling the screen.
The system's notification sounds were as frequent as a machine gun, and Chen Hao didn't even have time to look at the specific numbers.
After having dinner at the convenience store, Chen Hao told his parents and then took Tingting back to the old house.
He moved his and Tingting's belongings from the village store at the entrance—
Two suitcases, one gray and one pink, along with some odds and ends.
Tingting's pink suitcase was moved into her little room. Her clothes were folded and put in the closet, her plush rabbit was placed on her bed, and her fairy tale books were placed on the bookshelf one by one.
He moved his belongings into his bedroom, hung his clothes in the closet, and put his toiletries in the bathroom cabinet.
There weren't many things, but once they were arranged, the house felt like home.
