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

"Xiao Chu, I have to go to Shanghai later. There's a problem with a batch of goods that arrived there, and I have to go and take a look myself."

Pei Shizhou came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes and said that Gu Yunting couldn't leave Kyoto. He had originally wanted to spend another day with Xia Yichu.

"Okay, I'm fine here, you go ahead with your work."

Xia Yichu was airing out the quilts in the yard. The sun was shining brightly today, so she took out both her and Lin Xingcheng's quilts to air them out.

"Don't worry about Yang Yunxia's matter. I've had someone investigate, and I'll call you as soon as I have any news."

Pei Shizhou hugged Xia Yichu from behind, reluctant to let go. Fortunately, the two of them were finally dating, and he no longer had to worry about Xia Yichu being with someone else.

"Alright, no rush. Shizhou, don't go back to the Pei family, and don't pay any attention to them. They have ill intentions."

"Okay, I won't reply."

Xia Yichu worried that, like in his previous life, his left hand would be crippled by the Pei family. Unfortunately, she didn't know when this happened, under what circumstances they attacked him, or who attacked him.

Yesterday she secretly gave Pei Shizhou some space water to drink, but she didn't know if it would have any effect on his hands.

"Shizhou, how's your hand lately? My grandpa told me that Uncle Zhou went abroad to study medicine for your hand. When will he be back? Can't you have surgery on your hand yet?"

Pei Shizhou knew that Xia Yichu was subtly inquiring about whether the water he had given him yesterday had any effect. He had no idea where Xia Yichu got the water from; it was practically divine water.

Since drinking the water Xia Yichu poured for me yesterday, my hand seems to have regained a little strength. I had drunk it a few times before, but it only made my hand stop hurting.

"I'm much better. I seem to have regained some strength recently, and my hand hasn't hurt since last year. My uncle did go abroad to study medicine for my hand, and he should be back for Chinese New Year this year."

"Currently, doctors in China are not confident in their ability to perform the surgery, so my uncle doesn't want me to have it done; he wants me to wait."

His uncle said he would come back for the Chinese New Year to check on his hand, saying that he had recently met an expert in this field abroad and would try his best to persuade the expert to perform the surgery.

"Okay, then be careful in the future, and don't use that hand too hard."

When Zhou Wenbin was mentioned, Pei Shizhou's expression changed, becoming gentle, completely different from when he mentioned the Pei family.

"Okay, put it down..."

Drop drop!

A car horn sounded outside, and Pei Shizhou released Xia Yichu.

"Xiao Chu, Song Qihang is here to pick me up."

"Go ahead! Remember to call me when you get there..."

Before Xia Yichu could finish speaking, Pei Shizhou pulled her over and kissed her. He was initially somewhat restrained, but the reluctance in his heart surged like a tide, making his kiss gradually become more passionate.

He held Xia Yichu tightly, as if she would disappear if he let go. Xia Yichu's heart pounded like a drum, and her cheeks quickly flushed crimson. Slowly, she closed her eyes and returned the kiss.

Just then, the loudspeaker outside started blaring again, and Pei Shizhou reluctantly released Xia Yichu.

"Xiao Chu, I have to go."

"Shizhou, wait for me."

Before Pei Shizhou could reply, Xia Yichu ran into the kitchen, grabbed a cup, and took out water from her spatial storage.

She couldn't care less about anything else. She was separated from Pei Shizhou today and didn't know when they would meet again. She didn't want Pei Shizhou to have his hand crippled like in his previous life.

"Drink it."

Xia Yichu took out a full glass of water and handed it to Pei Shizhou, who took it without saying a word and drank it down in one gulp. Just as he had expected, Xia Yichu was giving him that special kind of water again.

"Hello, Miss Xia."

Song Qihang greeted Xia Yichu, and honked the horn twice in the car, but President Pei didn't come out. He was worried that President Pei would miss his flight, so he wanted to get out of the car and knock on Xia Yichu's door.

However, before he could knock, President Pei opened the door himself and told him to wait a moment. He didn't know what he was waiting for, and he didn't dare to urge President Pei.

He was still a little confused when Xia Yichu brought him a glass of water. President Pei was almost missing his flight, and he was waiting for Miss Xia's water.

"Hello, Manager Song."

"Xiao Chu, I have to go now. If you need anything, you can ask Song Qihang for help."

Song Qihang was extremely anxious. The plane was about to take off in half an hour, and it would take at least thirty minutes to get to the airport from here.

"Yes, yes, Miss Xia, you can come to me if you need anything. Mr. Pei, let's go quickly."

Xia Yichu took the cup from Pei Shizhou's hand, and Pei Shizhou grabbed her hand and kissed her forehead.

"Mr. Pei, I'll wait for you in the car."

Song Qihang turned his head away shyly, and Xia Yichu was also a little shy. Fortunately, Pei Shizhou knew his limits and only kissed her forehead.

"Xiao Chu, I'll call you tonight."

"You should leave now."

Xia Yichu couldn't stand him taking the cup and leaving. Only after she left did Pei Shizhou go out.

"Get out, I'll drive."

As soon as he got outside, he called for Song Qihang to get out of the car. Pei Shizhou knew that if Song Qihang drove, he would definitely miss his flight.

"Yes, Mr. Pei."

Song Qihang quickly got out of the car and sat in the passenger seat. Pei Shizhou stepped on the gas, and the car shot off like an arrow. He stared intently ahead, his hands firmly gripping the steering wheel.

As the number of vehicles on the road gradually increased, Pei Shizhou continuously shifted gears, accelerated, and overtook other cars, weaving nimbly through the traffic. Song Qihang gripped the handrail tightly, his face pale, but he dared not make a sound to disturb Pei Shizhou.

More than twenty minutes later, the airport finally came into view. Pei Shizhou parked the car at the airport entrance, and without daring to stop Song Qihang, he hurriedly got out of the car and ran towards the waiting hall.

At this moment, there were less than seven minutes left before the plane took off. Pei Shizhou weaved through the crowd, and fortunately, he finally boarded the plane at the last minute.

"Yi Chu"

"Victory, come in quickly."

Just after Pei Shizhou and Song Qihang left, Wang Shengli came to find Xia Yichu. Xia Yichu asked him to sit down and went to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water.

"Drinking water"

"Thanks"

Wang Shengli held the cup, his fingers unconsciously clenching until his knuckles turned white. His hand trembled slightly, and the water in the cup swayed gently.

His gaze was somewhat evasive; he dared not look Xia Yichu in the eye, but stared intently at the cup in his hand.

"Shengli, how's Uncle's situation?"

Xia Yichu noticed Wang Shengli's bad expression and guessed that things hadn't gone well for his father.

"Yichu, my dad still can't get over that incident."

He thought that as long as the money was found, his father could be released. The money was found, but Yu Jianfei denied that the twelve gold bars were bought with the money from selling materials.

Originally, the police could have cleared his father's name simply by investigating the origin of the money. However, at the garment factory, Yang Dazhi was holding onto the note that Yu Jianfei had signed and stamped with his father's seal.

They said that Yu Jianfei stole the raw materials because of that note, and since his brother-in-law was in the police force, they couldn't investigate the source of Yu Jianfei's money.

Wang Zhijie asked me to come see Xia Yichu today. He said that Xia Yichu's father is from Kyoto, and she would definitely have a way to help her family.

Wang Shengli was also desperate, so he had no choice but to shamelessly ask Xia Yichu for help.

"Yu Jianfei denies that the gold bars were bought with that money, saying that the money was what he had saved up over the years driving a truck. The police also said that there was no evidence to show that the money was from selling materials."
