Chen Yao walked towards the bathroom while arguing with the system.
As soon as she took off her clothes, the system was instantly locked in a small dark room.
Chen Yao felt relieved, and then she didn't forget to provoke it, "How does it feel to be locked up in a small dark room? Little cutie~"
The system was so angry that it started screaming.
Chen Yao smiled and turned on the shower in the bathroom. After adjusting the temperature, she hummed a song and started taking a bath.
However, perhaps because she was just unlucky or because the house hadn't been occupied for a long time, the water in the bathroom suddenly stopped when she was halfway through taking a shower.
Chen Yao looked at the white foam on her head and body that had not yet been washed clean, and fell into deep thought.
She couldn't believe it. Could she really be so unlucky?
With a sullen face, she anxiously tried to turn the shower on and off repeatedly to see if it was possible to restore the water supply.
But the result was not good, there was still not a drop of water in the shower.
Chen Yao looked at the sticky foam on her body and gradually became desperate.
She quickly called the system, "System, please help me, my water supply has suddenly been cut off. Do you have any tools that can provide temporary water supply that can help me?"
The system sighed: "Host, when I was locked up in the small dark room, I could do basically nothing except check the time and chat with you."
Chen Yao:!!!
"So, you can't even find the props now?" Chen Yao's voice trembled.
The system answered her: "Yes, host, this is what happens when you are locked up in a small dark room."
Chen Yao was silent.
She stood there thinking for a moment, then picked up the large bath towel in the bathroom and quickly wrapped herself in it, enduring the discomfort. "Why are there sticky foam on my hands? Help!"
Chen Yao was soaking wet. She walked from the bathroom to the living room and started looking for water.
However, it just so happened that the house was filled with filtered water, and with the water outage, there was no drinking water left.
Chen Yao frowned and suddenly had no idea what to do.
Just when she didn't know what to do in the emergency, the system silently prompted her: "Host, why don't you go next door and ask Jiang Jinchuan for help? Isn't this his house? He must have a solution."
Chen Yao:!!!
Good idea!
Then she picked up her phone and quickly made a voice call to Jiang Jinchuan on WeChat.
"Hello, Secretary Shen, what's the matter?" Jiang Jinchuan quickly answered the phone.
Hearing his magnetic voice coming from the receiver, Chen Yao had a strange feeling as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
She hurriedly said, "Boss Jiang, I don't know why the water supply suddenly stopped here. I was only halfway through my shower and now I'm really anxious. I don't know what to do..."
Jiang Jinchuan paused, and tightened his grip on the phone, "Secretary Shen, please wait a moment. I'll pay the water bill now."
"Okay, Mr. Jiang, but don't hang up. I'll be waiting here." Chen Yao said anxiously.
Jiang Jinchuan guessed that she must be panicking too, so his cold voice softened a bit: "Okay, I won't hang up."
After saying that, he quickly opened the water bill payment application.
Unfortunately, the water bill payment system is out of service for a day due to maintenance and upgrades, so it cannot be operated at all.
Jiang Jinchuan frowned slightly. How could it be such a coincidence?
Chen Yao's body was slowly drying up, and she felt increasingly uncomfortable with the stickiness. Seeing that Jiang Jinchuan was not well yet, she couldn't help but ask him about his current progress.
Jiang Jinchuan directly sent the screenshot to her, “Secretary Shen, unfortunately, I can’t pay the water bill now.”
Chen Yao: ...
Now both of them were silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Chen Yao felt really uncomfortable. She wanted to go to a place with water immediately and wash her whole body clean and refreshed.
At this time, she couldn't care less. She asked Jiang Jinchuan directly, "Boss Jiang, if you don't mind, can I go to your place to take a shower first?"
Jiang Jinchuan on the other end of the phone was obviously breathing irregularly. He answered her unnaturally: "Okay."
Then he hurriedly buttoned up all the buttons on his open shirt.
Just now, he was about to take a shower and was halfway through taking off his clothes when he received a call from Chen Yao.
"Mr. Jiang, shall I go there directly now?" asked Chen Yao on the other end of the phone.
Jiang Jinchuan quickened the pace of buttoning his shirt and replied, "Yeah."
After getting his response, Chen Yao grabbed her phone and rushed over without thinking, and just happened to meet Jiang Jinchuan who opened the door.
When they looked at each other, they were both stunned for a moment.
Chen Yao was stunned because the moment she closed the door, she remembered that she was not wearing anything but a bath towel. Moreover, she just closed the door out of habit and did not even take the key with her.
Jiang Jinchuan was stunned because of Chen Yao's current appearance. Her wet hair was scattered, and her eyes and rosy lips were also wet, which added a bit of temptation. In addition, there was a faint blush on her cheeks, and her obviously anxious and embarrassed expression gave people a strong desire to protect her.
