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

"Xiao Chu, don't you think it's more suspicious that Yang Yunxia wanted to smother her own son?"

Is it possible that Yang Yunxia's own marriage was unhappy, and she didn't want the Xia family to have a good time, which led her to do those irrational things?

Yang Yunxia's actions stemmed from a desire for revenge, which seemed perfectly normal to Pei Shizhou. Only smothering Xia Zhiqian was abnormal, terrifying, and suspicious.

Xia Yichu couldn't tell Pei Shizhou that Yang Yunxia might be sick, which was why she did that.

"Is it possible that Yang Yunxia's attempt to smother Xia Zhiqian was also out of revenge, because Xia Guohua disliked her, so she wanted to harm the child? Even if it was her own son, she wouldn't let him go."

The logic didn't hold up no matter how you looked at it, and Xia Yichu had no idea what Yang Yunxia was thinking.

"That's not impossible, so what are you planning to do?"

Pei Shizhou knew that Xia Yichu had recorded Yang Yunxian's words while in prison.

"I don't know, I'll just take it one step at a time. Shizhou, I'm going home in a few days, and then school starts again."

Things are getting increasingly complicated. She hadn't discovered in her past life that Yang Yunxia was also involved in her mother's affairs. Now she doesn't know what to do. To figure things out, she needs to continue the investigation. Asking Yang Yunxia directly will definitely not get her to admit anything unless she has evidence.

"Xiao Chu, I'll go home with you for Chinese New Year."

The thought of not being able to be with Xia Yichu for so many days made Pei Shizhou feel bad. So, he made a decision: he would go home with Xia Yichu.

"no"

Xia Yichu rejected him without hesitation. Zhou Wenbin was like a time bomb, and something could happen at any moment. At this critical moment, Pei Shizhou absolutely could not leave Kyoto.

If Zhou Wenbin kills Pei Feng's entire family like he did in his previous life, Pei Shizhou will definitely go insane again. What will Grandpa and Grandma Zhou do then?

Why?

Pei Shizhou asked with dissatisfaction, "Does Xia Yichu not want to take him home? She only wants to date him, not marry him, so she doesn't want to take him home."

"Shizhou, listen to me. I need you to keep an eye on Yang Yunxia in Kyoto. Also, have your comrade keep an eye on Yang Yunxian's situation."

If Yang Yunxian has anything on her mind, and it's inconvenient for me to be at home, you can stay in Beijing and see her anytime. Also, your uncle, he took several days off. Don't you want to know why he took leave without telling his family?

In order to find out about Yang Yunxia, ​​Xia Yichu didn't care about arousing Xia Zhiheng's suspicion.

Aside from not wanting Pei Shizhou to leave Kyoto because of Zhou Wenbin's situation, this was also Xia Yichu's truest thought. She was determined to find out what role Yang Yunxia played in her mother's death.

"But…"

"Shi Zhou, only you can help me with this. I don't trust anyone else."

Xia Yichu looked up at Pei Shizhou and spoke earnestly, word by word. Pei Shizhou was still unwilling. He could have Gu Yunting visit Yang Yunxian, or have Jiang Xuejun keep an eye on her. As for his uncle, with his maternal grandparents around, there was no problem.

"Xiao Chu, I..."

Xia Yichu hugged Pei Shizhou and buried her head in his chest.

"Shizhou, we'll have plenty of time to spend together in the future. How about you come home with me again next year?"

Seeing Xia Yichu like this, Pei Shizhou swallowed back the words he was about to say. He sighed heavily and said helplessly.

"Alright, I'll stay in Kyoto. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on Yang Yunxia and Yang Yunxian, and I'll let you know immediately if anything happens."

Xia Yichu smiled gratefully, raised her head and kissed Pei Shizhou's cheek.

"Thank you, Shi Zhou."

Pei Shizhou wasn't about to let Xia Yichu get away with this opportunity, so he pulled her over and the two of them lay down on the sofa.

Xia Yichu was on top, lying on Pei Shizhou. Pei Shizhou held Xia Yichu's head with his hand, and the two kissed.

Xia Yichu's initiative excited Pei Shizhou. The kiss was passionate and affectionate, filled with intense love, which made her feel intoxicated.

After an unknown amount of time, the two slowly separated. Xia Yichu looked at Pei Shizhou with a shy expression, her eyes full of affection. Pei Shizhou looked at her tenderly and gently brushed away the stray hairs from her cheek.

"Xiao Chu, don't worry, go home. I will definitely handle things here. You must take me back next year for Chinese New Year."

Xia Yichu nodded, nestled in Pei Shizhou's arms, and felt his body temperature and heartbeat.

After a while, Xia Yichu tried to sit up, but Pei Shizhou stiffened and pressed her head down with a hoarse voice, saying, "Xiao Chu, don't move, wait a little longer."

"I want to call my aunt; she doesn't know I'm on vacation yet."

Xia Yichu realized that she hadn't called her aunt since the holiday started. Pei Shizhou had a phone at home and was free at the moment, so she wanted to tell her aunt that she would be going back in a few days.

"Shi Zhou, let me go!"

The more Xia Yichu struggled, the redder Pei Shizhou's face became. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore, released Xia Yichu, and pushed her away. Then, he hurriedly ran into his room.

Xia Yichu was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening. Her face flushed, she stopped making the call and quickly slipped home.

When Pei Shizhou came out after taking a cold shower, Xia Yichu was already gone, and Pei Shizhou didn't dare to go looking for her now.

The next day, Xia Zhiheng came to Xia Yichu's house before going to work. When he opened the door and went in, he found Pei Shizhou there, wiping the table in the living room.

He gripped the keys in his hand, veins throbbing on his forehead; he knew Pei Shizhou was up to no good.

"Pei Shizhou, I knew you had made a copy of Xiao Chu's house key."

"Zhiheng-ge, keep your voice down, Xiaochu is still sleeping!"

Xia Zhiheng lowered his voice, his voice blazing with anger: "Pei Shizhou, this is despicable! I told you not to make copies of the key, and you promised me. And what kind of behavior is this, coming to Xiao Chu's house so early!"

Pei Shizhou put down the rag and said with a forced smile, "Brother Zhiheng, you've misunderstood. Xiao Chu gave me the key. Xiao Chu hasn't woken up yet, and I was just thinking of tidying up her house. I didn't even go into Xiao Chu's room."

"Impossible, how could Xiao Chu give you the key?"

The key in Xia Zhiheng's hand was something Su Qingyan had asked Xia Yichu for, saying that she could come over and help Xiao Chu clean when she had time. That way, she could stay at the house anytime she came to Kyoto.

"I'm not lying to you, it really was Xiao Chu who gave it to me."

Xia Zhiheng snorted coldly: "Don't try to fob me off with those words. You'd better behave yourself. If you dare to bully Xiao Chu, I won't let you off the hook."

At this moment, Xia Yichu walked out of the room, still sleepy, and rubbed her eyes when she saw Xia Zhiheng and Pei Shizhou.

"Zhiheng-ge, what brings you here?"

Xia Zhiheng looked at Xia Yichu, his tone softening somewhat.

"You gave Pei Shizhou the key."

When Pei Shizhou saw that Xia Yichu came out wearing only pajamas, he went over, took off his coat, and quickly put it on Xia Yichu.

"Yes, it was cold, and he was waiting for me at the door early in the morning, so I made a copy of the key for him."
