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

In the morning, Xia Yichu was awakened by a series of urgent phone rings. She rubbed her eyes, got up, put on her shoes, and went to answer the phone.

"Feed"

Her languid voice came through the phone, and Pei Shizhou's mood instantly improved.

"Xiao Chu, it's me."

"Shizhou, what happened?"

Xia Yichu instantly woke up when she heard Pei Shizhou's voice. She had forgotten that Pei Shizhou had said he would call her last night, so she went to the clothing factory to find Yang Dazhi.

Pei Shizhou called her several times, trying to estimate when she would get out of school, but she didn't answer his call until after 7 p.m. Pei Shizhou said that if she didn't answer the phone, he was going to have Song Qihang come over to check if something had happened to her.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to talk to you. Did you just wake up?"

"Yes, I just got up. Have you eaten?"

"I've eaten. I might stay in Shanghai for a few days, and then I'll probably go straight back to Kyoto."

Gu Yunting said Pei Feng went to the Zhou family to see his maternal grandparents, but didn't say what it was about. He only said he was going to see them, and that he had already gone twice. Pei Shizhou wanted to go home first after finishing his work, to see what his father was up to.

Doesn't he know he's very disliked? Every time he visits the Zhou family, his maternal grandparents are reminded of the tragic death of his mother.

"Okay, you go ahead with your work, don't worry about me. I've been a bit busy lately, I'll be home late tonight."

"Yes, if you need anything, just ask Song Qihang. If you encounter any problems you can't solve, you can also tell me."

Xia Yichu was satisfied with Pei Shizhou's tact. Last night, when she came home late, Pei Shizhou only told her to be careful. He told her to talk to him if there was anything she couldn't handle, and didn't ask any other questions.

"Okay, I'm hanging up."

"Wait a minute, Xiao Chu, I miss you. Have you missed me?"

"have"

Xia Yichu hung up the phone embarrassedly after speaking, touched her burning cheeks, and went to brush her teeth and wash her face. She would call Wang Shengli again after school to ask if he had developed the photos and if he had found someone to deliver them to Yang Dazhi's wife.

"Yichu, I have something to tell you."

As soon as Xia Yichu entered the school, Jiang Meixiang called her away. She looked around and then pulled Xia Yichu to a corner to talk.

"Meixiang, what happened?"

Jiang Meixiang had eaten quite a bit of what Shao Yang had given Xia Yichu, and she had always wanted to find a chance to repay her. However, she had neither money nor power, and never knew how to help. Today, she heard some news and felt she had to tell Xia Yichu.

"Someone at the school spread rumors that you're promiscuous, saying that different men come to pick you up at the school gate every day."

I've observed carefully, and the rumor seems to have originated from the freshmen. I wonder if it has anything to do with Chen Tao.

Jiang Meixiang also heard about what happened yesterday. Xia Yichu just rejected Chen Tao yesterday, and it's hard not to suspect Chen Tao when these rumors spread at school today.

"Meixiang, thank you for telling me this."

Xia Yichu didn't take it to heart; it was just a rumor! In a few days, when something else happened, no one would pay attention to her anymore.

"You're welcome. I wasn't able to help much anyway, so I'll be going now."

Jiang Meixiang said shyly, "Everyone says that Xia Yichu is cold, difficult to get along with, and looks down on people, but only Jiang Meixiang knows that Xia Yichu is not like that."

Her classmates and even her roommates knew that she came from a rural area and that she was honest but quiet. They would boss her around when they needed her help, but ignore her when they didn't.

She felt that Xia Yichu was much better than them; she would pay Xia Yichu for her help. Sometimes, even when she didn't need help, she would still find something for Xia Yichu to do and then give her something in return.

After school, Xia Yichu packed her things and left the classroom. When she came to class that morning, her classmates gave her strange looks. However, she ignored them. She would just do what she usually did. Anyway, no one dared to talk about her to her face, let alone provoke her.

"Xia Yichu, I need to talk to you."

She was stopped again as soon as she left the school gate. She doesn't know what's wrong with her lately, but she keeps getting stopped on the street.

The two people who stopped her were young women, one of whom was wearing the most fashionable flared pants at the time, had a trendy perm, and looked at her with disdain.

The other one was dressed a little worse, and while her looks were alright, she was a bit dark-skinned. She didn't recognize either of them, but strangely, they both looked somewhat familiar.

"Who are you? What do you want with me?"

"Pei Shizhou is my brother, and she is the daughter of the chairman of Tengda Company."

Pei Zongna said smugly that since Xia Yichu was dating Pei Shizhou, she had to please her.

"Oh, so you're the daughter of Feng Yarou and that other man. I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone this shameless. A bastard dares to claim to be Shizhou's sister."

She looked quite like Feng Yarou. Xia Yichu had seen her picture on TV in her previous life, but she was already dead by then. Because the case was a national sensation, it was broadcast on the news every day during that period, which is why Xia Yichu found her familiar.

As for the daughter of the chairman of Tengda Company, it seems that she offended Pei Shizhou in her previous life, and in the end, the company was acquired by him.

"You... Xia Yichu, don't be too smug. My father will never agree to you marrying into the Pei family. Shanshan is my father's chosen daughter-in-law. Tengfei Company is the largest pharmaceutical company in Kyoto."

"So what! What does it have to do with me? Get out of my way, don't block my way."

Xia Yichu pushed Pei Zongna away and left. Zhang Shanshan, who hadn't said a word the whole time, spoke up at this moment.

"Xia Yichu, I have photos of you with other men."

Yesterday, the two of them had just gotten off the plane and checked into a room near Pengcheng University before dropping off their things. They waited for Xia Yichu at the entrance of Pengcheng University, but unexpectedly, Xia Yichu came out on her own before school was over.

Then, seeing Xia Yichu leave in a taxi, the two of them quickly hailed a taxi and followed. Zhang Shanshan had brought a camera with her; she wanted to secretly take pictures of Pei Shizhou so she could look at them later when she missed him.

Unexpectedly, she accidentally photographed Xia Yichu chatting and laughing with an older man. She immediately took out her camera, snapped several photos, and then left with Pei Zongna.

In the morning, Zhang Shanshan took the film to the photo studio and paid extra to have it developed. After receiving the photos, the two of them waited for Xia Yichu to get out of school at the school gate, which led to the scene we are in now.

"Really, I'm not lying to you, the photo was taken around 5 a.m. yesterday."

Hearing this, Xia Yichu scoffed and walked away without looking back.

"Shanshan, what do we do now? Xia Yichu is not threatened, and we don't know where my brother is?"

Zhang Shanshan was a little annoyed by Pei Zongna's constant use of the word "brother." Xia Yichu was right when she said that a wild girl like her was not worthy of being Pei Shizhou's sister.

If Pei Shizhou hadn't refused to see her, and even if he had finally met her, he wouldn't have paid her any attention, she wouldn't have gone to the Pei family and come to Pengcheng with Pei Zongna.

"Come on, hurry up and follow Xia Yichu, we're sure we'll find Shi Zhou."

Zhang Shanshan and the others followed Xia Yichu openly, only speaking when they saw Xia Yichu take out her key to open the door.

"Xia Yichu, I want to talk to you."

Xia Yichu knew they were following her, but she didn't intend to pay them any attention.

"I'm busy."

"Aren't you afraid I'll show the photos to Shi Zhou? Or do you think I'm lying and there aren't any photos of you with other people?"
