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

"Shizhou, I must go to Gangcheng tomorrow."

After leaving the Xu family, Xia Yichu solemnly told Pei Shizhou that she wished she could go to Hong Kong right now to discuss cooperation with Zheng Leran.

"Would Xu Shaoyang agree?"

Xu Shaoyang's injuries were quite severe, and he was very proud, so he agreed to go to Hong Kong despite his injuries.

"You have to go even if you disagree, because business waits for no one."

Pei Shizhou found Xia Yichu's anxious expression somewhat amusing.

"Okay, I'll go back to Kyoto after you leave. Gu Yunting went home recently, and I've been quite busy too."

Gu Yunting was called home by his family several months ago, and he hasn't returned since.

"Hasn't he come back yet? I think you told me about him going home three months ago."

"This time is different. I heard his grandfather is sick and hospitalized, so he probably won't be back anytime soon. That's why I'm especially busy lately, Xiao Chu. Call me once you've settled in there."

I'll try my best to be home before 10 p.m. every night. You can call me anytime you're free.

"it is good"

"And don't overwork yourself. If there's anything you can't solve, you can tell me."

If Gu Yunting hadn't been absent, Pei Shizhou would have wanted to go to Hong Kong with Xia Yichu.

In order to come to Shenzhen to see Xia Yichu, he stayed up for two nights to arrange the work at hand. Now there is a lot of work waiting for him to go back and deal with, and he really can't leave.

"Okay, don't worry about me. Xu Shaoyang has been in Hong Kong for a few years, he won't let anything happen to me."

Although Xu Shaoyang was somewhat concerned with his reputation, he was quite reliable in business. Xia Yichu knew that with him in Hong Kong, she could have someone to rely on.

"Let's go shopping."

"it is good"

Xia Yichu couldn't bear to refuse Pei Shizhou's kindness; they had been dating for so many years. If nothing unexpected happened, she would marry Pei Shizhou.

So Xia Yichu went shopping with Pei Shizhou without any burden, and over the years she had received quite a few valuable items from him.

After finishing his meal, Xu Shaoyang applied the ointment and found that his face felt cool and comfortable. Just as he was about to go to sleep, his grandparents and maternal grandparents came to visit him.

Xu Shaoyang lay angrily on the bed without saying a word, while several elderly people stood beside him exchanging knowing glances. No one wanted to speak first, but in the end, Xu's father couldn't stand it any longer.

"Xu Shaoyang, get up! The elders are all here, what kind of behavior is it for you to sleep on the bed?"

After saying that, she stepped forward to pull Xu Shaoyang away. However, she heard Xu Shaoyang crying softly from the bed, a completely different sound from the howling he had been beaten yesterday. His shoulders were also trembling.

The commotion distressed the elderly couple. Grandpa Xu and Grandpa Xu quickly pushed Xu's father away. Grandma Xu and Grandma Xu, at a loss, went over and sat by the bed to comfort Xu Shaoyang.

"Grandma's sweet grandson, what's wrong? Does it hurt? It's all your dad's fault for hitting you too hard. Don't cry, don't cry!"

Grandma Xu completely forgot the harsh words she had said yesterday, and Xu Shaoyang cried even louder when he heard this.

He was truly heartbroken. He had brought gifts for his family yesterday and returned home full of joy, only to be met with hostility from his family. He had never suffered such humiliation in his life.

"My sweetheart, don't cry, it breaks my heart, waaaah..."

Grandma Xu was even more dramatic; while wiping away Xu Shaoyang's tears, she also started crying. She even held Xu Shaoyang's face in her hands and started scolding Xu's mother, completely forgetting that she had told Xu's mother not to hold back yesterday.

"Your mother is too cruel; she almost disfigured you."

Xu Shaoyang choked up and said, "Grandpa and Grandma, my face is all swollen from being slapped. How am I supposed to go out and face people now?"

"None of you love me, what's the point of my life? I don't want to live anymore, I might as well just die."

Seeing that the elders in his family felt sorry for him and were on his side, Xu Shaoyang quickly took advantage of their kindness.

"Xu Shaoyang, don't try this 'crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide' act on me, you're a grown man."

What Xu's father disliked most about Xu Shaoyang was this lack of masculinity. He himself didn't buy into Xu Shaoyang's act, but he couldn't resist the fact that several of the older folks did.

Sure enough, the elderly people were heartbroken when they heard this, and they all scolded Xu's father: "You still scold him? He's already like this, and you still yell at him."

After a night, the men's anger had subsided, and seeing Xu Shaoyang's miserable state, they were left only with heartache. Grandpa Xu even hit Xu's father twice with his cane, and Xu's father didn't dare to utter a sound.

Xu's mother and I stood at the door as if we had done something wrong. We looked at each other, and only we knew the bitterness and helplessness in our eyes.

"My dear grandson, don't be afraid of your dad, Grandma's here!"

As soon as Grandma Xu touched Xu Shaoyang's leg, Xu Shaoyang exclaimed in surprise.

"Ouch...it hurts, Grandma, my leg hurts so much."

He casually pulled up his pants, revealing his red and swollen knees. The elderly people were even more distressed when they saw this.

"What happened? Why is it so swollen!"

Grandma Xu wiped away tears with heartache. Father Xu broke out in a cold sweat; oh no, the reckoning was about to begin again.

"Grandma, did you forget what my dad did yesterday? You even wanted my dad to break my legs."

With a bruised and swollen face, Xu Shaoyang looked pitifully at Grandma Xu. Grandma Xu's expression stiffened, and she resolutely denied what she had said yesterday.

She decided to shift the blame to her son, but she's still the same loving grandmother who dotes on her grandson.

"I didn't say that. I can't bring myself to say something so cruel. You must have misheard me yesterday."

"Wei Nan, what's wrong with you? You hit me so hard, I'm starting to doubt if Xiao Yang is even your biological son."

After Grandma Xu finished speaking, she looked at Mr. Xu with a threatening gaze.

"I…"

Just as Mr. Xu was about to explain, Mr. Xu tapped the ground with his cane. Mr. Xu then saw the look in Mrs. Xu's eyes and immediately deflated.

"Okay, it's all my fault, it's my fault."

"Dad, then apologize to me and promise never to hit me again," Xu Shaoyang said with a smug look on his face.

"You brat, don't push your luck. What kind of father apologizes to his son?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Shaoyang immediately started wailing and crying again: "Grandpa, Grandma, Grandpa and Grandma on my mother's side, look, my dad still won't admit his mistake. He's the one who caused these injuries. How am I supposed to live now?"

Several elderly people softened at his crying and began to criticize Xu's father. Surrounded by the crowd, Xu's father was both angry and helpless, and glared fiercely at Xu Shaoyang.

Just then, Xu's mother spoke up: "Alright, stop making a scene. Shaoyang, stop being so temperamental. Your father is hitting you for your own good."

"No need to apologize, I'm going to Hong Kong tomorrow." Xu Shaoyang finally stopped crying and stated his condition.

"no"

"no"

Before Xu's parents could refuse, the elderly people all said no in unison.

"Why? I'm doing a great job running my business in Hong Kong, why won't you let me go?"

"My dear grandson, listen to your grandma. Hong Kong is too far away, and if you have any problems, your family can't help you right away. If you want to do business, you can make money in Shenzhen just the same way."

"Grandma, I've lived through all these years, what could possibly happen? Even if something does happen, I can handle it myself. I'm all grown up now, I don't need to worry my family about everything, I can manage on my own."

Upon hearing this, the elderly men exchanged glances. His grandfather then spoke up, "Alright, my good grandson has ambition. Go to Hong Kong and do your best. If you encounter any difficulties, tell us."

"Really, thank you, Grandpa."

The others wanted to continue talking, but Grandpa Xu called them away. Xu Shaoyang didn't know what they were saying downstairs. Anyway, no one objected to him going to Hong Kong to do business anymore.
