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

Miss Xia

Song Qihang was waiting for Xia Yichu at the door of her house; he had been waiting there for almost an hour.

"Manager Song, thank you for your help. I'll go in and get my things."

A while ago, Xia Yichu bought a set of clothes for her eldest uncle and aunt and sent them back to them. She also bought two sets of clothes for An'an and sent them back to him as well. She only needs to bring her own clothes when she goes back, just like when she goes to Kyoto.

"Okay, no rush."

Song Qihang didn't go in; he waited for Xia Yichu at the entrance. After a while, seeing Xia Yichu carrying a bag and holding a bag of things, Song Qihang quickly went over to help her with her things.

"Miss Xia, I'll do it."

"Thanks"

Xia Yichu thanked him, handed him the things she was carrying, and walked out of the house to take out her keys from her bag and lock the door. The cat and dog had been taken home by Qiuyue yesterday. The two walked towards the car.

"Miss Xia, is there anything else?"

It was still early; the plane wouldn't take off for another two hours. Xia Yichu thought for a moment, gave Song Qihang an address, and asked him to take her there.

"it is good"

Song Qihang didn't dare ask any more questions and drove away. Xia Yichu thought to herself that she had only made two phone calls to Wu Mingli since returning from Kyoto.

Now that she was about to go back, Xia Yichu had a little time and wanted to visit the Wu family, but she didn't know if Wu Mingli would be there at this time.

"Miss Xia, we've arrived."

This is where government officials live, so Song Qihang's car couldn't drive in and had to park on the side of the road.

"Please wait here for me a moment, I'll be right back."

"OK"

Xia Yichu got out of the car and walked over; there were guards at the gate. She had been here a few times before, and District Chief Wu had introduced her to the guards, saying that Xia Yichu was family. So Xia Yichu greeted the two guards and was then let in.

After walking for a few minutes, Xia Yichu arrived at the Wu family's house and rang their doorbell. Even if no one from the Wu family was home, their housekeeper would be.

Uncle Wu

Xia Yichu called out to Wu Mingli in surprise, thinking that Wu Mingli was not at home at the moment.

"Xiao Chu is here, come in quickly."

Xia Yichu followed Wu Mingli inside and found that there were guests at the Wu family's house, which explained why Wu Mingli was home. Several people were sitting in the living room, but Xia Yichu didn't look closely.

Sister Wanrou

As Xia Yichu shouted, everyone turned to look.

"Xiao Chu, come and sit down quickly."

Chen Wanrou walked towards Xia Yichu with a beaming smile, and the others also stood up.

"Xia Yichu, it's you?"

Xia Yichu heard someone call her and looked up. It was Chen Tao and his mother, with a middle-aged man beside them who looked a bit like Chen Tao. He must be Chen Tao's father; it was Chen Tao who had called her earlier.

"Xia, what a coincidence."

Chen's mother pulled Chen Tao, who still wanted to speak, and greeted Xia Yichu with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, you actually know Xiao Chu. Xiao Chu, this is my cousin, and this is my cousin's wife. Their son is Chen Tao, by the way, he's also studying at university in Shenzhen."

"I know," Xia Yichu replied indifferently.

The atmosphere froze instantly. Chen Wanrou and Wu Mingli could both tell that Xia Yichu didn't seem to like Chen Tao. The two looked at each other, not wanting to ask any more questions.

Chen Wanrou quickly pulled Xia Yichu and said, "Xiaochu, let's go sit down and talk."

"Cousin, cousin's wife, Xiao Tao, don't stand, sit down."

Wu Mingli followed and sat down. Seeing that Chen Wanrou's cousin's family was still standing, he greeted them.

"Okay, sure."

Chen's mother responded and pulled her son to sit down. Chen's father knew something about his son's feelings for Xia Yichu. Liang Xiaowen had told him about it, saying that Xia Yichu was just a girl from a small county town, good for nothing but being pretty, and not good enough for her son at all.

Mr. Chen didn't take his son's feelings seriously. He was young and might not like him anymore after a while. Besides, liking someone doesn't necessarily mean he'll marry them.

"Miss Xia, your tea."

At this moment, Wu's nanny came out with a cup of tea and placed it in front of Xia Yichu.

"Thank you, Aunt Wang."

"Sister Wang, cook more dishes tonight. Xiao Chu, eat at home tonight."

Wu Mingli grew increasingly fond of Xia Yichu. When encountering spies, he was brave and resourceful, bold yet meticulous, and even helped them capture the spies in one fell swoop.

Previously, Xia Yichu was taken care of by her teacher, but now she is treated like her own younger sister.

He spoke much more casually and in a very intimate tone, which surprised Chen Wanrou's cousin's family. They wondered who Xia Yichu was that Wu Mingli treated her this way.

Don't be fooled by Wu Mingli's usual smiling and polite demeanor towards his relatives. He's actually not close to them at all, which is probably a common problem among officials.

"it is good"

"Aunt Wang, no need, I'll be leaving soon. Uncle Wu, I'm taking a plane to Kyoto later. Shi Zhou's friends are still waiting for me outside."

I hadn't been home since I came back from Kyoto, so I thought I'd come over and tell you and Sister Wanrou since I still had a little time.

Chen Tao stared intently at Xia Yichu; at school, he could only watch her from afar. Xia Yichu knew Chen Tao was looking at her, but she didn't pay him any attention.

"You're in such a hurry to see Pei Shizhou, can't you even wait a day?"

Wu Mingli's unfriendly tone stunned Chen Tao's family, making them even more curious about the relationship between Xia Yichu and the Wu family. If it was family, they had never met her before, nor had they ever heard the Wu family mention it.

Moreover, seeing that Wanrou wasn't angry, it was obvious that she knew about their relationship, and even the housekeeper at home was familiar with Xia Yichu.

"No, I'm going to Kyoto to visit my grandparents. I'll be spending the Lunar New Year at my uncle's house."

He said that Xiao Cheng might go home this year, so I want to go to Kyoto as soon as possible so I can go home earlier.

"Xiao Cheng is coming back too. I haven't seen him in a long time."

Wu Mingli was overjoyed to hear that Lin Xingcheng was coming back. It's great to be young; you can pursue your dreams.

"Xiao Chu, tell Xiao Cheng to come over to our house to play when he comes back for the New Year."

Chen Wanrou knew her husband's dream, and since he couldn't achieve it in his lifetime, letting him chat with Lin Xingcheng would be fine too. When Lin Xingcheng was still studying at university in Pengcheng, Wu Mingli had praised him highly, showing that he had great faith in Lin Xingcheng.

"Okay, I'll definitely bring him over."

Zhou Shuyue's matter was all thanks to Wu Mingli. They still owed Wu Mingli a favor, so it was only right for Xiao Cheng to make the trip.

"Xiao Chu, don't listen to your sister Wanrou. Xing Cheng hasn't been home for so long, and he's so busy with work. Let him stay home and spend time with his family."

Researchers spend too little time with their families, a sentiment Wu Mingli deeply understands. Lin Xingcheng was better off when he first entered the field, but as he achieved some success, he spent less and less time at home. The greater his abilities, the less time he had for his family.

Xia Yichu felt bad for keeping Song Qihang waiting too long, so she said, "Sister Wanrou, Uncle Wu, my flight is at six o'clock, I have to go."

"By the way, Uncle Wu, I'll make you some loquat syrup next year. I've been too busy lately, and by the time I had time, there weren't any pears left."

If Xia Yichu hadn't brought it up today, Wu Mingli would have almost forgotten about it. Mainly because he hasn't been feeling well lately; he doesn't have a headache or sore throat, and he's been sleeping well.

"Okay, then I'll take more loquat syrup."

Wu Mingli rarely showed greed; he used to be most afraid of receiving gifts from others.

"No problem," Xia Yichu readily agreed.

"Xiao Chu, I'll come over and help you then, can you teach me?"

Chen Wanrou thought that her husband and in-laws liked to drink it, so she wanted to learn how to make it.

"OK"

She didn't say a word to Chen Tao until Xia Yichu left.
