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

Xia Zhiheng looked at Xia Yichu speechlessly. She was definitely captivated by Pei Shizhou's appearance. He couldn't control her; oh well, let it be destroyed!

"I'm here today to ask you what you talked about with Yang Yunxian yesterday? My friend told me you talked with Yang Yunxian for a whole hour and even sent away the people guarding him."

Xia Zhiheng didn't mean anything by it; Yang Yunxian was, after all, a prisoner. Xia Yichu and the others had talked to her for so long and had even sent the guards away. If something unexpected happened, no one could explain it.

In particular, he heard from a friend that Yang Yunxian had been emotionally unstable before, and that Yang Yunxian was particularly agitated when his mother visited her in prison. But strangely, Yang Yunxian was very calm when he met Xia Yichu, and the two even talked for more than an hour.

Because Deputy Warden Jiang Xuejun called the guards away, Xia Zhiheng didn't know what they were talking about inside. He found out yesterday that Jiang Xuejun was Pei Shizhou's comrade-in-arms.

"Brother Zhiheng, didn't you say anything? You chatted with Yang Yunxian about some trivial matters."

Xia Zhiheng didn't believe it, but it was clear that Xia Yichu didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't press her further.

"It's alright, go to sleep! Pei Shizhou, come out with me for a moment."

After Xia Zhiheng finished speaking, he walked out first. Pei Shizhou said to Xia Yichu, "Xiao Chu, go inside and sleep. I'll be back in a bit."

Xia Yichu returned his coat to him, waved him off, and told him to hurry up and leave, otherwise Xia Zhiheng would get angry again.

Pei Shizhou put on his coat and left. Xia Yichu went back to her room, but she couldn't sleep. She had been woken up and couldn't fall asleep at all.

She picked up the watch from the bedside table and glanced at it; it wasn't even eight o'clock yet. She changed her clothes and went to brush her teeth and wash her face. When she came out, Pei Shizhou was already sitting in the living room.

"Xiao Chu, why aren't you asleep?"

Pei Shizhou saw Xia Yichu come out dressed neatly, so he went up to her and took her hand.

"No, I can't sleep. Shizhou, what did Zhiheng say to you?"

"You told me not to do anything inappropriate to you."

He was also tasked with keeping an eye on Xia Yichu and preventing her from saying or doing anything inappropriate to Yang Yunxian.

"Oh, what time does your uncle start work? Can we see him if we go to the Zhou family's house now?"

"He starts work at 8:30, but it's hard to say now; sometimes he's there, sometimes he isn't. You mean..."

After Xia Yichu left yesterday, Pei Shizhou called the Zhou family, and his maternal grandfather answered the phone. He asked about his uncle, and his grandfather said that his uncle was fine.

Although it's suspicious that my uncle took leave without telling the family, he's an adult and has his own reasons for doing things. Seeing Xia Yichu nervous yesterday, he also became nervous.

Then, after thinking about it again, he wasn't so worried. Pei Shizhou didn't tell the two elders about his uncle's leave of absence. He planned to ask his uncle next time he saw him, so he didn't specifically go to the Zhou family to inquire about his leave.

"Yes, let's go quickly."

Xia Yichu took Pei Shizhou's arm and pulled him forward.

"Xiao Chu, slow down."

"No, your uncle will leave soon."

Pei Shizhou reluctantly followed her. Two minutes later, they arrived at the Zhou family home, where Zhou Wenbin was just about to leave.

Uncle Zhou

Xia Yichu shouted loudly, "Thank goodness we made it in time!" Zhou Wenbin looked up and saw Xia Yichu holding Pei Shizhou's arm, with Pei Shizhou looking at Xia Yichu with a tender expression.

It was as if he were seeing his own sister and Xia Guohua from over twenty years ago, and he couldn't help but want to cry. If Xia Guohua hadn't been tricked by the Yang family, perhaps his sister would have married him, and perhaps she wouldn't have died so tragically.

"Uncle, are you going to work?"

When they came to the front, Zhou Wenbin, with red eyes, said, "Yes, it's cold. You should take Xiao Chu inside quickly."

"Uncle Zhou, Shi Zhou needs to talk to you."

Xia Yichu pinched Pei Shizhou, urging him to ask Zhou Wenbin quickly. Before Pei Shizhou could speak, Zhou Wenbin spoke first.

"Xiao Chu, A Zhou, I'm running out of time. We'll talk when I get back."

After speaking, he rode away on his bicycle. Xia Yichu was now even more certain that Zhou Wenbin had something on his mind, and something serious at that. If she wasn't mistaken, Zhou Wenbin's eyes were red. He looked haggard, as if he hadn't had enough rest.

"Shizhou, shall we follow them?"

"Xiao Chu, your uncle will be angry if he finds out."

His uncle served as a military doctor in the army when he was young, and he had good observation skills.

"Pei Shizhou, why don't you care about your uncle's affairs at all?"

Xia Yichu angrily let go of Pei Shizhou's hand. He had seemed worried just yesterday, but now he didn't seem to care about the matter at all.

"Xiao Chu, don't be angry. Come on, let's go back and get the car now."

Xia Yichu followed Pei Shizhou back to the car, sulking. She barely acknowledged him the entire way. Pei Shizhou sighed helplessly and quickened his pace.

The two got into the car, and Pei Shizhou skillfully started the engine and drove towards the hospital.

"That's strange, I haven't seen your uncle. Maybe he didn't go to the hospital."

They were only delayed by a few minutes, and they should have seen Zhou Wenbin by now.

"Xiao Chu, have you forgotten? Yesterday the nurse said my uncle has been on sick leave for several days."

"So what do we do now?"

Pei Shizhou wanted to suggest having breakfast now, but seeing Xia Yichu's anxious expression, he didn't dare to bring it up.

"We took a walk around a few streets near our home."

"Alright, that's the only way for now."

Ten minutes later, they still hadn't found Zhou Wenbin. Xia Yichu said, "Shizhou, go straight to the Pei family."

"it is good"

Pei Shizhou dared not object, fearing that Xia Yichu would be unhappy again. She could do whatever she wanted, and it wasn't worth making her angry over this.

Zhou Wenbin was already in the textile factory director's office, and he took out a stack of documents.

"Director Huang, take a look."

Huang Rende was unaware of Zhou Wenbin's purpose in coming to the textile factory. After Zhou Wenhui's death, Pei Feng remarried. The Zhou family no longer had much contact with Pei Feng, and Zhou Wenbin used to frequently visit the Pei family to cause trouble for Pei Feng.

He hasn't interfered with Pei Feng's work for so many years; otherwise, he wouldn't have become the factory director of the textile factory, and Pei Feng wouldn't have stayed in the position of deputy factory director for so many years.

"Director Zhou, what do you mean by this?"

Zhou Wenbin didn't say anything, but pushed a stack of documents in front of Huang Rende. Huang Rende picked them up curiously and looked at them for a while. His face turned pale instantly, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

The document contains evidence of his younger brother Huang Renlong's illegal and unethical practices, including selling inferior goods as superior ones, signing dual contracts with suppliers, and embezzling public funds.

"Director Zhou, what do you want?"

Huang Rende tried to remain calm, but his voice trembled slightly. He thought Zhou Wenbin knew he was being transferred and wanted to help Pei Feng become the factory manager of the textile factory.

Then I thought about it again and realized something was wrong. With this evidence, Pei Feng could take over in no time, and Zhou Wenbin wouldn't need to come looking for him at all.

"Find a mistake and fire Pei Feng."

Finding evidence that Pei Feng murdered his sister won't be easy. Zhou Wenbin doesn't want Pei Feng to live such an easy life, so he first needs to get rid of his job.

He paid someone to investigate Pei Feng, hoping to find out if he had violated any rules or regulations. But Pei Feng was either too timid or too cautious.

He didn't make any major mistakes at work, but they did find out that Huang Renlong, the younger brother of the textile factory director, had embezzled public funds and violated laws and regulations.

Zhou Wenbin didn't care about anything else; he only had one thought: to make Pei Feng lose his job and make his life miserable.

"This…"

Huang Rende stood up in shock, momentarily speechless. It wasn't difficult to find fault and fire Pei Feng; the real challenge was dealing with his brother's situation, which could potentially implicate him as well.
