Chapter 252 Pei Shizhou Agrees to Help
"Why is it you?"
After having dinner at Xia Zhiheng's house, Xia Yichu spent more than two hours with Su Qingyan before returning home. She packed her things and waited for Xia Zhiqian at home. Instead of Xia Zhiqian, Pei Shizhou arrived.
I'll pick you up and take you to the airport.
Pei Shizhou was very busy and couldn't go to Pengcheng with Xia Yichu this time, but he still made time to pick her up from the airport.
"Okay, but I'll have to wait a bit. Brother Zhiqian said he'd pick me up and take me to the airport. It's still early, so I'll tell him when he arrives before I leave."
Xia Yichu happened to have something to discuss with Pei Shizhou. She had originally planned to call him after returning to Pengcheng, hoping to talk to him in person.
"No need, I'll go get some paper and pen to write it down, then roll it up and put it on your door. He'll see it when he comes."
When Xia Zhiqian arrives, he may not be able to take Xia Yichu away; the two Xia brothers are both incredibly difficult to deal with.
And then there are Lin's two uncles and Xia Yichu's cousins. Pei Shizhou's head aches just thinking about it. When will he be able to marry Xia Yichu?
"OK"
Upon hearing Xia Yichu's promise, Pei Shizhou immediately went to the car to get paper and pen and wrote, "Yichu was picked up by me and taken to the airport," followed by his name, rolled it up, and placed it on Xia Yichu's door.
"Yichu, get in the car."
Pei Shizhou opened the passenger door and beckoned Xia Yichu to get in.
"Okay, thank you."
As soon as they got into the car, Xia Yichu was pondering how to tell Pei Shizhou that she would help investigate Yang Yunxia. Pei Shizhou was also a little absent-minded; he wanted to express his feelings to Xia Yichu.
He didn't want to wait any longer, afraid that if he waited any longer, Xia Yichu would be snatched away by another man, and then he wouldn't even have time to cry. His grandmother was right; he couldn't think about taking it slow, he had to strike first.
"Yi Chu"
"Shizhou"
The two spoke at the same time, creating an awkward atmosphere. Pei Shizhou finally mustered up the courage to confess his feelings.
"Yichu, you go first."
"I want you to help me investigate the events surrounding Yang Yunxia's marriage. Also, I want to know why Yang Yunxian moved into the Xia family's house."
Xia Yichu didn't stand on ceremony and told the whole story in one go.
"Sure, may I ask why you're investigating Yang Yunxia? Having a direction will make the investigation easier, since these things happened more than twenty years ago."
"I won't hide it from you, this is what happened, Yang Yunxia..."
Xia Yichu recounted everything she had told her grandmother that morning from beginning to end, and Pei Shizhou was not at all surprised that Yang Yunxia would do such a thing.
"But why would she want to harm your mother?"
Pei Shizhou just couldn't understand what this had to do with Xia Yichu's mother, and why she would treat her mother that way.
"Perhaps she harbored resentment out of love. My uncle disliked her, and she didn't want the Xia family to have an easy time. So when she learned that Yang Yunxian liked Xia Guoan, she not only didn't intend to expose him, but also pushed him from behind."
She always asked Yang Yunxian to help her send money and letters to my mother. They were cousins who grew up together, so she must know a thing or two about Yang Yunxian.
Xia Yichu hadn't thought anything of it before, but now that she thought about it, something was definitely wrong. She even trusted Yang Yunxian to send her valuables like money and jewelry.
Xia Guoan also asked Yang Yunxian to send it, but she didn't know what Xia Guoan's mentality was, or whether Yang Yunxia had said anything to him. She could only ask him when he came back.
Yang Yunxia is very clever. She never takes the lead in anything; she always designs others to do things for her, but she is the biggest beneficiary in everything.
"You're right. Don't worry, I'll definitely find out the truth for you."
"Okay, thank you. Shi Zhou, do you know who my uncle likes?" Xia Yichu asked cautiously.
"I know, he likes my mom, and my mom likes him too. I have photos of them and my uncle, as well as my mom's diary, at home."
Pei Shizhou casually remarked that he was glad his mother didn't like Pei Feng.
"You don't need to look at me like that. I've known these things since I was a child."
"Oh"
After a moment of silence, Xia Yichu didn't know what to say.
"Yichu, we've arrived at the airport."
"it is good"
Pei Shizhou parked the car and helped Xia Yichu with her things. She only brought one bag and the bag that her grandfather had bought for her that morning; she didn't bring anything else.
"No need to see me in, I'll go in myself."
Xia Yichu reached out to take her things from Pei Shizhou's hand, but Pei Shizhou wouldn't give them to her.
"It's okay, I'll go in with you."
"Okay, by the way, what did you want to say to me just now?" The two talked as they walked.
"There's no time, let's talk about it next time."
Xia Yichu just asked him for help, so it wouldn't be good for him to confess his feelings now. It would feel like taking advantage of her vulnerability, and besides, time is short, so it's not a good time.
"Okay, I'll be coming to Kyoto for Zhiqian's wedding anyway. I'm leaving my affairs in your care. Contact me by phone if anything happens. Be careful. Give me the things, I'm leaving."
"it is good"
Xia Yichu took the things from Pei Shizhou and left, then stuffed money into his hand. Pei Shizhou looked at the money with a helpless expression. He waited at the airport until Xia Yichu's plane took off before driving back.
"Pei Shizhou, where's Xiao Chu?"
When Pei Shizhou arrived home, he was blocked by Xia Zhiqian, who was furious. When he arrived at 3:50, Xia Yichu had already been taken away by Pei Shizhou. He was even angrier when he saw the words on the door.
He turned around, got into his car, and drove off to chase after them. He arrived at the airport at 4:30, but after walking around, he couldn't find them.
After ten minutes and still not seeing anyone, he drove back, but didn't see Pei Shizhou's car along the way, so he waited for him in front of Pei Shizhou's house.
She's boarded the plane.
"Impossible, I didn't see her at the airport. Did you hide her?"
Pei Shizhou definitely wouldn't tell him, fearing he would catch up. So he took a longer route, going around in circles, before finally arriving at the airport, just in time to board.
No, she really left.
"Wait, why didn't I run into you guys along the way? I didn't see Xiao Chu at the airport either. I know, you...you..."
Xia Zhiqian was so angry he couldn't speak. Pei Shizhou was too cunning; he had gone to great lengths to avoid him.
"Would you like to come to my place for a bit?" Pei Shizhou said, taking out his keys to open the door.
"No, Pei Shizhou, just give up on that idea. Xiao Chu won't like you. You're both cunning and treacherous. You're also too old. Xiao Chu's classmates at school are young, cultured, and share common interests. She definitely won't be interested in you."
Pei Shizhou said with a dark face, "Xia Zhiqian, you're asking for it."
Sensing the tense atmosphere, Xia Zhiqian got into his car and sped away. He couldn't beat Pei Shizhou, not even his brother. However, he'd heard Pei Shizhou's hand was injured, so his brother should probably be able to beat him now.
Ring ring ring!
After Xia Zhiqian left, Pei Shizhou had just entered his home when the phone rang.
Pei Shizhou answered the phone, but before he could speak, Pei Feng's arrogant voice came from the other end.
"Pei Shizhou, come over for dinner tonight, you..."
With a snap, Pei Shizhou hung up the phone. He took out a pack of cigarettes from the table and started smoking, when the phone rang again.
Pei Shizhou ignored him. He rarely smoked, only when he was in a bad mood. This pack of cigarettes belonged to Gu Yunting.
He was much stronger than those young men, and he was also quite good-looking. Pei Shizhou stubbed out his cigarette and went to Gu Yunting's room to look in the mirror.
With that physique and face, Gu Yunting said anyone who saw him would be mesmerized, and that he only lasted a second, and those girls would admit it. Pshaw, what are you thinking? He lasted much longer than a second!
Pei Shizhou lay dejectedly on the bed. How come Xia Yichu wasn't confused at all when she saw him? Not only was she not confused, but she also didn't take advantage of him at all.
Before boarding the plane, I stuffed the money for the ticket back into his hand. Oh well, I'll just go and help her investigate Yang Yunxia.
