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

"Yichu, this is the house I bought. Yes, this is it, let's park!"

Xia Yichu brought the car to a steady stop, and the two got out. In front of them was a villa with a 1990s Hong Kong style.

"Great! Xu Shaoyang, this is the villa you bought."

"right"

There was a small courtyard in front of the villa. Xu Shaoyang took out his key to open the gate and let Xia Yichu drive the car in.

"Let's go in and take a look."

After parking the car, Xu Shaoyang opened the villa door and gestured for Xia Yichu to go in first.

The interior is luxurious yet elegant, with a crystal chandelier casting a warm glow and gleaming wooden floors. A set of genuine leather sofas sits in the living room, and several abstract paintings hang on the walls.

Do you like it here?

Xu Shaoyang asked Yi Chu with a smile. Yi Chu looked around, her eyes filled with surprise. She had to admit, Xu Shaoyang had a good eye.

"fine"

Next, Xu Shaoyang showed Xia Yichu around the bedroom, kitchen, and living room on the first floor. Every corner was carefully decorated and full of life.

Stepping onto the second-floor balcony, one could see the bustling night view of the port city in the distance, its dazzling lights reflecting off the water. Yi Chu leaned against the railing, feeling the gentle breeze. Xu Shaoyang really knew how to enjoy life; although the villa wasn't large, its location was excellent.

"Xu Shaoyang, how much did you pay for this house?"

Xia Yichu was quite tempted; with current housing prices, any purchase wouldn't be a loss. She wanted to buy if she had the financial means, but her business was more important. If she still had money left, she could consider buying one.

"It used to cost over 1.2 million, but now it's probably worth over 1.8 million. Luckily, I bought it quickly. Property prices in Hong Kong are rising faster than on the mainland, increasing by hundreds of thousands every year."

If you want to buy, you should do it sooner rather than later, as property prices in the port city change every day.

"By the way, Yichu, we'll transfer your money to your account at the bank tomorrow. Would you like to invest in a clothing export business with me?"

Xu Shaoyang didn't have much cash on hand, only a little over three million yuan. He planned to split the money he had earned over the years with Xia Yichu.

He bought a car and a villa, spending around two million yuan. After giving Xia Yichu the money he had earned over the years, he only had five or six hundred thousand yuan left in cash.

The dance hall and arcade are doing good business, with daily net profits of several thousand.

He planned to use the money he had to start a clothing business. He saw that Xia Yichu was determined to open an entertainment company with Zheng Leran, and he wondered if she would like to invest in the clothing business with him.

"The money isn't urgent, and neither is the clothing business. Take me to Zheng Leran first."

"No, I'll go in a couple of days. I can't face anyone looking like this."

Xu Shaoyang's face is much better than yesterday; the swelling has subsided, but there are still some bruises.

"It's okay, we're not going to find a partner, we're going to discuss business."

"No way, I'm not going out until the wound on my face has healed, even if you kill me."

Xu Shaoyang firmly disagreed, and Xia Yichu was anxious. She took out another bottle of ointment, which contained more water than the previous one.

"Here, take this ointment. I can only wait one more day. Tomorrow you must take me to see Zheng Leran and the others."

Xia Yichu's expression was serious, and Xu Shaoyang dared not refuse, fearing that Xia Yichu would turn against him.

"Alright, Yichu, there's a suite for you on the third floor. I've already had Sister Wang clean it."

Xu Shaoyang lives on the second floor, which has the same layout as the third floor: a suite, a bedroom, a living room, a balcony, and a bathroom.

When Xu Shaoyang returned to Pengcheng, he didn't know if Xia Yichu would be willing to come to Gangcheng with him. However, he still asked Sister Wang to prepare daily necessities for Xia Yichu and tidy up her room.

"Okay, I'll take the clothes upstairs first."

Xia Yichu didn't make a fuss. She was new to the city and unfamiliar with it, and she didn't want to stay in a hotel for long. Staying with Xu Shaoyang temporarily was fine, and she could move out when she bought her own house.

"Okay, I'll call Sister Wang and ask her to come back and cook. She's the housekeeper I hired."

Xia Yichu nodded, picked up her luggage, and went upstairs. Xu Shaoyang's villa was three and a half stories high. She arrived at the suite on the third floor. The room was cozy, and she could see the green plants in the yard from the window.

Xia Yichu put down her luggage and quickly tidied her clothes. Just then, Xu Shaoyang's voice came from downstairs: "Yichu, Sister Wang said she'll be back to cook soon."

Xu Shaoyang was packing his luggage on the second floor. He didn't go upstairs but talked to Xia Yichu at the bottom of the stairs.

"Okay!" Xia Yichu replied.

"Come down when you're done tidying up. There should still be food in the fridge. There are also snacks at home, so you can have something to eat if you get hungry."

"Okay, I understand."

Not long after, the doorbell rang. Xu Shaoyang went to open the door, and Sister Wang came in carrying groceries. Sister Wang was a warm-hearted middle-aged woman who greeted Xia Yichu with a smile.

"This must be Miss Xia, you're so beautiful," Xia Yichu replied politely.

Dinner was very lavish, and the three of them sat around the table. During the meal, Xu Shaoyang talked about some new developments in the port city's clothing market, and Xia Yichu listened attentively, occasionally offering her own insights.

After dinner, Xia Yichu returned to her room, lay on the bed, and felt both excited and nervous as she thought about meeting Zheng Leran to discuss business the next day.

Meanwhile, Xu Shaoyang was in his room on the second floor, carefully applying the ointment Xia Yichu had given him, hoping that his facial injuries would be almost healed by tomorrow so he could take Xia Yichu to see Zheng Leran.

After a good night's sleep, Xia Yichu stretched, got up, washed, changed clothes, and went downstairs.

Sister Wang was busy in the kitchen when she heard the sound and saw that it was Xia Yichu. She smiled and greeted Xia Yichu.

Miss Xia

"Sister Wang, is Xu Shaoyang still not up?"

Xia Yichu looked around but didn't see Xu Shaoyang downstairs.

"Yes, Mr. Xu doesn't get up that early. He usually doesn't get up for breakfast."

Xu Shaoyang used to be busy at nightclubs and wouldn't get back until midnight. So he rarely got up in the morning unless something came up.

"Oh"

"Miss Xia, what would you like for breakfast? We have bread, porridge, eggs, and some wontons that I just made."

Xu Shaoyang himself is from Pengcheng, so he specifically hired a nanny from Guangdong Province. Sister Wang knew that Xu Shaoyang valued Xia Yichu, and neither she nor Xu Shaoyang knew what Xia Yichu liked to eat, so she specially prepared several different breakfast items in the morning.

Xia Yichu thought for a moment and said, "Sister Wang, just a bowl of porridge and an egg will do, and also bake me a slice of bread."

"Okay, please wait a moment." Sister Wang quickly got to work.

Soon, a steaming hot breakfast was placed on the table. Xia Yichu sat down at the table, slowly eating her breakfast and enjoying the tranquility of the 1990s port city in the early morning.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Sister Wang told Xia Yichu to eat while she went to open the door.

"Sister Wang, has Boss Xu returned?"

A young man asked anxiously, "I heard from Sister Wang that Xu Shaoyang is going back to the mainland." Zheng Leran was afraid that Xu Shaoyang might not come back, as Xu Shaoyang was the only person he knew who had the ability to invest in his entertainment company.

"Yes, but Mr. Xu hasn't gotten up yet."

"It's okay, I can go inside and wait for him."
