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

"No need, you go about your business. It's not like this is the first time I've gone back by myself."

He Jiaying was curious about their relationship, so she sat down next to them and listened intently to their conversation. She had worked in the mall for several years and had met many people, but she had never seen a man as handsome as Pei Shizhou.

"With Yunting here, there's not much going on in Kyoto lately, and my company in Pengcheng has something that I need to go over and handle."

If Gu Yunting were here, he would definitely jump up and down and curse Pei Shizhou. He himself is incredibly busy every day. He even had to squeeze in time to come as a groomsman today, and after dinner at the restaurant, he still has to rush back to work.

"it is good"

There were five people in the car, so it wasn't convenient for them to talk. Xia Yichu and Pei Shizhou stopped chatting, and the others, whom they didn't know well, also remained silent.

Their car followed the groom's car around to go home. Pei Shizhou got out of the car first, and put his hand on Xia Yichu's head to protect her as she got out.

Be careful.

"Thanks"

After thanking He Jiaying, Xia Yichu walked over to Zhou Miaoying's side. Xia Zhiqian carried her out of the car and then carried her home to their marital home upstairs.

"Ah Ying, I'll go downstairs to greet the guests. We'll go to the restaurant later."

"Go ahead! It's enough that Xiao Chu and Jia Ying are here with me."

"Xiao Chu, take good care of your sister-in-law."

"it is good"

Xia Zhiqian gave Xia Yichu a word of advice, glanced at Zhou Miaoying, and then reluctantly walked out.

Zhou Miaoying blushed deeply under his gaze. Normally she wouldn't be shy, but Xia Zhiqian's gaze towards her today was unusually gentle, and carried a different emotion than usual.

"Ah Ying, Xia Zhiqian looked at you with such deep affection. You two have such a good relationship," He Jiaying teased after Xia Zhiqian left.

"Envious, aren't you! You should hurry up and find a man to marry! How about it? Any of these groomsmen you like today? If you do, tell me and I'll introduce you."

Zhou Miaoying's expression returned to normal as she joked back. He Jiaying was the same age as her, also twenty-two this year. She hadn't dated anyone yet, despite being introduced to several men and having many suitors, she hadn't liked any of them.

Zhou Miaoying was worried for her friend. She had asked Xia Zhiqian about the groomsmen today, and apart from Pei Shizhou, none of them had partners.

The age is also suitable; except for one person who is a year younger than He Jiaying, the others are all a little older than her, which meets her requirements for a partner.

"Ah Ying, I'm ignoring you. Why are you bringing this up out of the blue? I'll go downstairs and get you some water."

Seeing He Jiaying's shy and bashful appearance, Zhou Miaoying understood everything. It seemed that He Jiaying had someone she had her eye on.

"Xiao Chu, do you know who she has a crush on?"

Xia Yichu shook her head. She and He Jiaying were not familiar with each other in their two lifetimes, and their conversations would never have reached that level.

"I'll ask her after my wedding."

Of the five groomsmen, Pei Shizhou was definitely the best looking, while Gu Yunting, though not as good-looking as Pei Shizhou, was still quite handsome.

As for the man who was a year younger than He Jiaying, he drove a short-haul truck in Xia Zhiqian's fleet. He was of average appearance, so He Jiaying probably wouldn't be interested in him.

Of the remaining two, one was Xia Zhiqian's client. The two got along well and gradually became good friends. His family sold furniture, and he seemed to be twenty-four years old this year. He was decent-looking, but a bit short, less than 1.7 meters tall.

Another groomsman also drove a truck in Xia Zhiqian's fleet. He was honest, taciturn, and not good with words. He was twenty-six years old and still unmarried. Xia Zhiqian had asked people to introduce him to many girls, but nothing came of it after a few days.

The girls say he's utterly taciturn, and even though he has a good job and a decent salary, he still doesn't have a girlfriend. Now he doesn't even want to go on blind dates anymore; the repeated setbacks are unbearable, causing him to lose confidence in himself. He was already a man of few words, but now he's even more so.

"By the way, Xiao Chu, when are you coming back to Pengcheng?"

"I'm taking a flight back at 8 p.m. I only took one day off."

Zhou Miaoying frowned and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Can't we go back tomorrow? The plane arrives in Shenzhen at 8 o'clock and we won't get home until the early hours of the morning."

"It's alright, Shizhou will come to Pengcheng with me."

Zhou Miaoying held Xia Yichu's hand. Every time she went to Su Qingyan's place, her sister-in-law would tell her how wonderful Xia Yichu was. Although she hadn't spent much time with Xia Yichu, she liked her just as much as her sister-in-law.

"Xiao Chu, I heard from my sister-in-law that you bought two apartments in Jingyi Garden. I have some money and I'd like to buy two there too."

Her parents originally wanted to buy her a house, but after looking around, they didn't. Once, when she visited her sister-in-law, she heard that she was considering buying a house in Jingyi Garden, but unfortunately, her family didn't have enough money and could only afford one.

Xiao Chu said she bought two buildings there, and Pei Shizhou also bought one. Zhou Miaoying asked Xia Zhiqian about Jingyi Garden, and he said that buying a house there would be a waste of money.

They said that although the apartments in that neighborhood weren't expensive, the area was too desolate, with nothing nearby and inconvenient access to shopping. They couldn't rent out the apartments, nor could they sell them, so they ended up with unsold properties.

"Really? Sister-in-law, you can trust me, the houses there will go up in price sooner or later."

"My parents want to buy me an apartment as my dowry, but they haven't done so yet. If I buy elsewhere, I can only afford one apartment. I was thinking that if I buy in Jingyi Garden, the money could buy two."

Zhou Miaoying had initially trusted Pei Shizhou's judgment, but later learned that he bought the house there because he liked Xia Yichu. She figured that regardless of whether the house prices would rise in the future, since her sister-in-law and Xia Yichu had both bought houses in Jingyi Garden, she also wanted to buy two.

"Sister-in-law, if you want to buy, do it soon, the house price may go up in a while."

If the two sisters-in-law listen to advice, they will definitely be able to make a fortune in the future.

"Okay, I understand. I'll go buy it in a few days."

At this moment, Xia Zhiqian opened the door and came in, followed by He Jiaying. He Jiaying went downstairs for a walk, subtly inquiring about Pei Shizhou from other people.

"Ah Ying, let's go to the restaurant. Grandpa, Grandma, and Mom are coming over now."

"it is good"

Twenty minutes later, everyone arrived at the hotel, where the wedding was in full swing. Xia Zhiqian and Zhou Miaoying greeted the guests at the entrance, and Xia Yichu got out of the car to find that Su Qingyan had also arrived.

Yang Yunxia took Xiao Bo from her arms and sat inside to keep Grandpa and Grandma Xia company. She sat silently beside them.

He Jiaying seemed somewhat distracted, glancing at the groomsmen every now and then.

After all the guests arrived, the banquet was filled with laughter and joy as everyone raised their glasses to bless the newlyweds. Zhou Miaoying and Xia Zhiqian were busy greeting the guests, and Yang Yunxia dared not cause any trouble today.

None of the Yang family members came. Grandma Xia had told Xia Zhiqian a few days ago not to invite any of the Yang family members.

Xia Yichu had just returned the child to Su Qingyan and was now sitting with He Jiaying. Pei Shizhou kept looking in their direction.

He Jiaying blushed and her heart raced after she noticed. She didn't know whether Pei Shizhou was looking at her or Xia Yichu.

She had inquired and found out that Pei Shizhou's maternal grandparents and Xia Yichu's paternal grandparents were old friends. Moreover, Xia Yichu was only nineteen years old this year, still in college, and six years younger than Pei Shizhou.

Xia Yichu was a granddaughter whom the Xia family had only recognized last year. She thought that the elders might have asked Pei Shizhou to take care of her, which is why the two of them became closer.
