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

Snapped!

Xia Guoan had just fallen asleep when he was suddenly slapped. He covered his face and groggily opened his eyes.

"How dare you sleep? Where is Xiao Chu?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Guoan received another slap across the face. He sat up and looked at Lin Weidong with a wronged expression. Standing next to Lin Weidong were two young men, Lin Xingyao with red and swollen eyes, and Lin's mother.

"What are you sitting there for? Hurry up and find someone to rescue Xiao Chu."

If it weren't for the need to rescue Xia Guoan, Lin Weidong would have loved to chop him to death with a kitchen knife. Xiao Chu had been kidnapped by spies, and Xia Guoan was still sound asleep. Seeing this infuriated Lin Weidong, and his hands started itching again.

"Uncle, it's a misunderstanding. Xiao Chu is fine; she's sleeping in her room now."

While Pei Shizhou went out to buy things, the Lin family arrived. They even hit Xia Guoan, and he immediately ran in after putting down his things.

"real"

Lin Weidong didn't bother to ask who Pei Shizhou was, and asked incredulously.

"Really, if you don't believe me, go and see for yourself in Xiao Chu's room."

No one cared about Pei Shizhou's identity; the whole group went to Xia Yichu's room to see if she was sleeping.

"Uncle Xia, how are you?"

Pei Shizhou didn't know what Xia Guoan had told Lin Weidong. It seemed they only knew that Xiao Chu had been kidnapped by spies, but didn't know that she had already escaped.

"Mr. Xia, are you alright?"

Zhang Huaitong asked uneasily, as he was in charge of Xia Guoan's safety. He had also been in charge of Xia Guoan's safety last year when Xia Guoan was in Kyoto.

So he knew Lin Weidong, and knew that he was Xia Gong's brother-in-law. He was the one who let Lin Weidong and his group in just now.

"fine"

Xia Guoan said dejectedly, then immediately got up. This wasn't over yet; he had to get up quickly and explain things to Lin Weidong, otherwise he'd get beaten up again.

"Xia Guoan, come out here."

Lin Weidong called out in a low voice at the door, afraid of waking Xia Yichu.

"Big brother, I have something to tell you."

Xia Guoan quickly went out and pulled Lin Weidong back into the room. The living room and bedroom were connected, and he was afraid of waking Xia Yichu.

Lin's mother, Lin Xingyao, Huang Shaosong, and Huang Shaogang quickly followed them inside. The room was small, and it was soon filled with people.

"What's with all this pulling and tugging? Spit it out. You're such a grown man and you can't even speak clearly. Look how scared you've made them."

Lin Weidong pointed to his wife and daughter and said that he was the same; he had been restless and weak-kneed the whole way. He was a man, and he had to bear it; he couldn't cry like the women in his family.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

Xia Guoan apologized, looking aggrieved. He admitted it wasn't really his fault; Lin Weidong hadn't given him a chance to speak. However, he didn't dare say it aloud. Based on his past experience, he knew that if he apologized sooner, Lin Weidong would calm down a little.

"Xia Guoan, you are not allowed to see Xiao Chu again. Xiao Chu was fine for more than ten years, but he was kidnapped by spies after only recognizing you as his father for a little over a year."

Who knows what dangers await her in the future? No, I have to take her home.

Hearing this, Xia Guoan broke out in a cold sweat. He had asked Lin Weidong to help educate Xiao Chu, not to take his daughter away.

"Big brother, this won't do. Xiao Chu is still in school. Besides, all the spies this time have been caught by Xiao Chu, she won't be in danger."

Lin Weidong crossed his arms and sneered, "Hmph, you have the nerve to say that? If it weren't for you, would Xiao Chu have encountered such danger?"

At this moment, Lin Xingyao, who had been silent all along, spoke up, "Uncle, how did Xiao Chu manage to arrest the spy?"

Lin Weidong hadn't been listening carefully to Xia Guoan's words, and when he heard his daughter's question, he looked at Xia Guoan curiously, waiting for his answer.

"You are Xingyao, Xiaochu's cousin."

Since Xia Yichu was reunited with his family, Xia Guoan's workplace had investigated the Lin family. He had also reviewed the Lin family's files and knew about the family members.

"Yes, Uncle, about Xiao Chu..."

Lin Xingyao was extremely anxious, and the others were also staring at Xia Guoan, waiting for him to speak.

"It's a long story."

Lin Weidong flew into a rage as soon as he heard Xia Guoan speak.

"Then make it short and sweet."

Seeing that Lin Weidong was on the verge of losing control, Xia Guoan dared not keep him in suspense any longer. He recounted how Xia Yichu was invited to dinner by spies, then drugged and taken away by them, and even described how Xia Yichu captured the spies, revealing his own speculations as well.

"Big brother, this isn't the first time Xiao Chu has done something so dangerous. She was kidnapped once last year. To be precise, last year the kidnappers didn't want to kidnap her; they wanted to let her go back to deliver a message, but she refused and insisted on going with the kidnappers."

She definitely won't listen to what I say, but you're different; Xiao Chu respects you. So I'd like to ask you to persuade Xiao Chu not to do such dangerous things next time.

Xia Guoan concealed the fact that Xia Yichu was trying to save her cousin's wife, and now the most important thing is to get Lin Weidong to persuade Xia Yichu. Lin Weidong had just considered preventing Xia Yichu from acknowledging him, and Xia Guoan didn't want Lin Weidong to know that Xia Yichu's two kidnappings were related to him. He'd keep it a secret for as long as possible.

"What? Such a thing actually happened? I'll go wake Xiao Chu up and ask her what's going on."

Lin's mother was even more agitated than Lin Weidong. She put her hands on her hips and tried to leave angrily, but Lin Weidong stopped her.

"Wait a minute, don't be impulsive. Xia Guoan, are you sure you're not lying? Did Xiao Chu really do these things?"

Lin Weidong couldn't believe that Xiao Chu was so bold as to follow those people even though she knew they were spies.

"It's absolutely true. If you don't believe me, ask Xiao Chu's boyfriend, Pei Shizhou. He was there when Xiao Chu was kidnapped last year and this year."

Xia Guoan pulled Pei Shizhou to the front, hoping that Lin Weidong would object to Xia Yichu's relationship and, ideally, break Pei Shizhou up with her.

"Uncle, Aunt, hello, I'm Pei Shizhou, Xiao Chu's boyfriend. What Uncle Xia just said is true, but the fact that Xiao Chu went with the spy is just our speculation. We'll have to ask Xiao Chu for the specifics."

Lin Weidong and his wife sized up Pei Shizhou. With Chen Shaoping as a comparison, they were quite satisfied with Pei Shizhou.

"Shizhou, what do you do for a living?"

Lin's mother asked gently, "Pei Shizhou's temperament and appearance are impeccable."

"Auntie, I used to be a soldier, but I injured my hand and was discharged. Now I run my own business."

"It's good to have served in the military! Unlike some people, who can't lift a finger or carry anything." Lin Weidong said to Xia Guoan in a sarcastic tone.

"Brother and sister-in-law, he has a stepmother, and his stepmother has a son who is a few years younger than him."

Seeing that something was wrong, Xia Guoan quickly explained Pei Shizhou's family situation.

"Uncle, Aunt, I don't live with my biological father, I basically have no contact with his family, and all my businesses have nothing to do with his family."

I don't even have contact with my biological father myself, and I would never allow Xiao Chu to have contact with them in the future.

Lin's mother thought that Pei Shizhou and her father didn't get along well, so even though she would lose one more person to help her, she didn't mind as long as she was capable. As long as Pei Shizhou was sensible, it wasn't impossible.

I just don't know if his mother is easy to get along with. When a girl gets married, the man is important, but the character of her parents-in-law cannot be ignored.

"Shizhou, may I ask about your mother...?"

"Aunt, my mother died in a car accident when I was a child," Pei Shizhou said casually.

"Shizhou, I'm sorry, I didn't know," Lin's mother apologized sheepishly.

"It's alright, Auntie. It's been many years, and I've long since stopped thinking about it."

"Good child, you have suffered."

Lin's mother looked at Pei Shizhou with a face full of heartache. He had no mother when he was young and had a stepmother. His life must have been difficult.
