Reborn back to the time before I sold my blood to support my scumbag boyfriend's college educat

After finishing their meal, the group returned to their team. Pei Shizhou had paid for the meal. So when Lin Weinan said he would treat him to dinner that evening, Pei Shizhou happily agreed. They parked their car in the county town and went to buy groceries and meat together.

"Xiao Chu, does Pei Shizhou like you?"

Wang Liujie and Xia Yichu were waiting for them in the car. Xia Yichu was drinking water when she heard her aunt's words and choked on her water.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

"Why are you drinking so fast, child?" Wang Liujie patted her back.

"Cough cough, Auntie, I'm fine."

"Why are you so excited? You don't happen to like him too, do you?!"

"No, I'm not familiar with him, I've only met him a few times, and he has someone he likes."

Wang Liujie was suspicious. She clearly saw that Pei Shizhou's gaze towards Xiao Chu was very gentle, and there was even a smile in the corner of his eyes. Could it be that she was seeing things wrong and overthinking things?

Pei Shizhou was the most handsome man she had seen in years, so it was normal for a young girl to like him. However, she noticed that Xiao Chu didn't seem to have any special feelings for him, so she probably wasn't interested in him.

Pei Shizhou came to the team a few years ago, but she was away for further studies, so she hadn't met him before. Today is their first meeting, and she has a decent impression of him.

"You're still young, there's no rush to date."

"Auntie, I understand."

She wasn't in a hurry at all. She had money in this life and wanted to live a different kind of life.

She was still waiting for Xu Shaoyang to open an entertainment company. All the celebrities on TV were top-notch, with amazing figures and looks. She could have a different one every day. She wanted to experience the same happiness Xu Shaoyang had in his past life. Marriage was out of the question!

Wang Liujie had no idea what Xia Yichu was thinking, but seeing her eyes shining and her looking even more beautiful, she sighed at how wonderful it was to be young.

Two days ago, Xia Yichu went to the hospital to see her. Many people have been asking her about Xia Yichu's age and whether she has a boyfriend. Raising a daughter is a lot of worrying.

"We've bought it, let's hurry back."

Lin Weinan got into the car, and Pei Shizhou followed. Xia Yichu had gotten up early that morning, and on the way back from the county town, she gradually leaned on Wang Liujie's shoulder and fell asleep. Seeing her asleep, no one spoke in the car.

"Xiao Chu, wake up."

They arrived at the military base before five o'clock. Wang Liujie woke Xia Yichu up and then got out of the car. Pei Shizhou got out of the car and told them he was leaving first, explaining that his uncle had asked him to come. His uncle had a good friend there, and he needed to inform him beforehand.

Uncle Zhou

"Shizhou is here. Why didn't you call me? I would have sent someone to pick you up."

"Uncle Zhou, I met Uncle Lin in the provincial capital and we came to the team together in his car."

Zhou Qiangguo asked in confusion, "Which Uncle Lin?"

"That's Commander Lin."

"Oh, it was him. Yes, he took the day off today. He said Xiao Chu is going back to Pengcheng in a couple of days, and he and his wife are taking her to the provincial capital to buy clothes."

Lin Weinan and his wife were incredibly devoted to their niece, Xia Yichu, especially Wang Liujie. They sent her money every month and clothes every season.

"She's going back so soon?"

When Xia Yichu was on summer vacation, Pei Shizhou went to Xia's grandparents' house and learned that she hadn't gone to Kyoto. He then went to Pengcheng to look for her, but she wasn't there either.

The girl who feeds her cats and dogs told her that she had gone back to her hometown. At first, the girl refused to tell him where Xia Yichu was.

Just then, Wang Zhijie came over and explained to the girl that Xia Yichu had gone back to her hometown. He could always find an excuse to see Xia Yichu when she went elsewhere, but he couldn't when she went back to her hometown.

"What? You're already reluctant to let them leave after just one ride?"

Zhou Qiangguo glanced at him and said that his uncle was still worried that Pei Shizhou was too slow to understand. He told him to see if there was anyone suitable to introduce him to. He thought it wasn't that Pei Shizhou was slow to understand, but that he just hadn't met anyone who made his heart flutter.

"Uncle Zhou, that's not how it is. Yi Chu and I met last year. I was thinking that she still had more than twenty days before school started, but I didn't expect her to go back so soon."

"You two have known each other for a long time. I was even thinking of introducing you to Xiao Chu yesterday, but Lin Weinan got angry with me as soon as he heard that he was introducing a potential partner to his niece."

Her niece is lucky. Although she grew up without parents, the Lin family dotes on her, so marrying her won't be easy. Lin Weinan will be a tough hurdle to overcome, but don't lose heart.

Since ancient times, no parent has ever refused to compromise with their children. As long as you win over Xiao Chu, nothing else matters.

Pei Shizhou smiled but didn't say anything, mainly because he didn't know what to say.

"I heard from your uncle that you've been discharged from the army. You were shot in the left hand and can't put any weight on it now."

Zhou Wenbin had served in the military a long time ago, and the two had a good relationship. This time, Zhou Wenbin heard from somewhere that a surgeon who had returned from abroad had come to his unit, so he told him about Pei Shizhou's hand injury and discharge from the army.

They wanted him to come here and try, to see if that doctor could remove the bullet from Pei Shizhou's hand. Because the bullet was very close to a nerve, many doctors weren't confident they could remove it.

If it's not removed, the hand can still move, but it can't exert any force and it hurts a little occasionally. However, if it's removed, the hand could be ruined if not handled properly, and since there's no certainty, Zhou Wenbin won't allow it to be removed.

But this wasn't a long-term solution; they still needed to find a way to remove the bullet. Zhou Wenbin hated that he was an internist, not a surgeon.

So he is now studying surgery abroad again, hoping to find an opportunity to meet experts in the field and perform surgery on Pei Shizhou.

Because he had only recently gone abroad, he hadn't yet been able to find someone to perform surgery on Pei Shizhou. He overheard that an expert's apprentice had returned to China to take up a position, and learned that he was in Zhou Qiangguo's army.

He immediately contacted Zhou Qiangguo and then called his nephew, asking him to come and take a look, hoping that surgery could be performed. Pei Shizhou couldn't bear to refuse his uncle's concern, and at the same time, feeling that his hand was getting better, he also wanted to know the current condition of his hand, so he agreed to come.

"Yes, I've been discharged from the military for a long time."

"I've already contacted the doctor for you, and I'll personally take you to see him tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Zhou."

"Don't be so polite! Your uncle saved my life. Come on, let's go to the cafeteria for lunch."

Zhou Qiangguo felt a little embarrassed, as guests could only eat at the canteen. He actually couldn't cook, and his wife's cooking wasn't very good either.

"Uncle Zhou, no need. Uncle Lin said he'd like to treat me to dinner tonight. Please accept the gifts, I won't go to your house, I'll go after dinner."

He's going to stay at Zhou Qiang's house tonight. He bought some canned fruit, malted milk powder, biscuits, and other things at a shopping mall in the provincial capital, and just left half of them at Lin Weinan's house.

"Really, that's great! Let's go together, give me the stuff."

Zhou Qiangguo looked excited, picked up the things Pei Shizhou had brought, and pushed him away.

"Come on! What are you standing there for?"

Pei Shizhou was a little confused. Uncle Lin said he was inviting him, but he didn't say he was inviting Zhou Qiangguo. It wasn't appropriate for him to come over like this! Seeing Zhou Qiangguo walking ahead, Pei Shizhou quickly followed.

"Brother Lin, I'm here again."

Zhou Qiangguo walked in familiarly, his voice preceding him even before he arrived, just like yesterday.

"Xiao Chu, take this back to Pengcheng to eat. I bought it especially for you."

Xia Yichu had just taken out the dishes when she saw what Zhou Qiangguo was holding. These were the same dishes Pei Shizhou had taken away earlier; he said he was going to visit an elder.

"Thank you, Uncle Zhou."

Since Xia Yichu didn't expose him, Lin Weinan wasn't so polite.

"Have you no shame? This belongs to Shi Zhou. You're using his things to curry favor."

"Brother Lin, why make such a distinction? They all belong to Xiao Chu anyway."

Lin Weinan thought about it and agreed, then turned to chat with Pei Shizhou. Since there were guests today, Xia Yichu didn't use the space water to cook rice.
