Chapter 760: Their Dilapidated Home (2)

The scene looked like something from a disaster strewn area.

Chen Jiahang froze in shock. He stood in the middle of the room and didn’t know where to put the basin that he was holding because there were leaks all over the room.

He threw the basin away, then ran to the woodshed and dug up a large wooden plank. He placed the large wooden plank against the window and used this to block most of the rain that was coming in.

Then, he took out everything in the house that could hold water, including pails, basins, and other water containers, then placed them under every single place that was leaking. However, large amounts of rainwater continued to enter the room.

The bed was completely soaked, and the mattress and headboard were also soaked.

The room was extremely damp because of the rainwater and a musty smell hung in the air.

He Xiyan started to sneeze once again.

Chen Jiahang didn’t know what to do and heaved a long sigh. There was nothing he could do if their house was falling apart.

It was still raining heavily outside and it was night time, so he couldn’t climb up to repair the roof. They would only have to make do for now.

He Xiyan tugged on his hand and said, “Jiahang, let’s have our meal first. I don’t think we’d be able to repair this house tonight.”

She only hoped that their house wouldn’t collapse.

Chen Jiahang sighed heavily and pursed his lips tightly. His disappointment and misery were written all over his face.

No matter how broken this room was, it was still his home, the place that he lived in. This room had never been renovated but this was where his father had used to live in, so he felt like he had let his father down when he saw the current state of the room.

He Xiyan noticed how dejected Chen Jiahang seemed but she didn’t probe further. She quietly finished the congee that he had scooped for her, then took the bowl and chopsticks into the kitchen and washed them.

At night, she opened the door to the bedroom on the right. This was her room and contained many of her belongings.

She surveyed the room and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there were no other leaks. The windows were also shut tightly. A waterproof ceiling had been constructed in this room and the floor was made of cement, so this room was much warmer and tidier than Jiahang’s room.

She felt much warmer after entering her own room.

She walked to the bedside, laid out the blankets and let the mosquito nets down.

She hadn’t slept in this room for several months but Aunty Wang had tidied her room two days ago, and changed the bedsheets and blankets, so this room was very clean and tidy.

She opened her closet and took out her warmer set of pyjamas. This was the pyjamas that Chen Jiahang had prepared for her when she had first arrived. Although it wasn’t expensive, the pjamas fit her rather well.

She took her clothes to the bathroom and Jiahang and already prepared a hot bath for her inside.

Unlike their rental flat at Li City where she could take a shower under the showerhead, they would have to fill a tub with water and wash themselves with towels in this house.

He Xiyan quickly finished washing up because this tiny bathroom was not warm and she shivered whenever the wind entered the bathroom.

After she finished washing up, she quickly changed into her pjamas and moved as fast as she could back to her own bedroom.

However, when she returned to her bedroom, she froze in shock and her legs felt like they were pinned to the spot.

The tall figure in front of her bedroom made her feel flustered.

Chen Jiahang stood in front of the closet and seemed to be looking for something.

He seemed to have just finished showering as well and wore a pair of dark grey underwear that hugged his figure tightly.
