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

Xia Yichu didn't get up until Xu Shaoyang had finished eating. Xu Shaoyang put down his chopsticks and looked towards the stairwell.

"Sister Wang, why hasn't Yichu gotten up yet? Why don't you go upstairs and check on her?"

Just as Sister Wang stopped clearing the dishes and was about to speak, Xu Shaoyang added, "Forget it, let's not go up and disturb her. If we wake her up, she'll get angry."

Sister Wang wondered what was wrong with Xu Shaoyang today. He was acting strangely.

"Mr. Xu, Miss Xia usually comes down around nine o'clock. It's only eight-thirty-five now, she may have already gotten up, or perhaps she's washing up now."

"How about I go up and check? I'll walk quietly, and even if she hasn't gotten up yet, I promise I won't wake Miss Xia."

Sister Wang asked tentatively, thinking that Xu Shaoyang had something urgent to discuss with Xia Yichu.

"No need, go cook something Yichu likes to eat."

"Okay, Mr. Xu, your face."

When Sister Wang finished clearing the dishes and looked up, she noticed a bruise on Xu Shaoyang's face.

"It's nothing, I just accidentally bumped into the door yesterday."

Xu Shaoyang lied without batting an eye; how embarrassing it would be if others knew she had been beaten by Xia Yichu.

"Oh"

Sister Wang, looking puzzled, took the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen to wash them. The bruises on Mr. Xu's face didn't look like he'd bumped into the door. Oh well, if he said he bumped into the door, then he bumped into the door!

When Sister Wang finished her chores in the kitchen and came out, she found Xu Shaoyang mopping the floor again. Wait, wasn't that floor already mopped? Why is he mopping it again?

"Mr. Xu, you..."

Xu Shaoyang quickly interrupted Sister Wang, "Sister Wang, don't worry about me, go watch TV and take a break."

Xu Shaoyang went to great lengths to get Xia Yichu to come down, making sure the first thing he saw was Xia Yichu working.

"No, how can I let you do the work? That's not appropriate."

Sister Wang stepped forward to grab Xu Shaoyang's mop, but he dodged it.

"It's alright, Sister Wang. If you don't want to watch TV, you can go to the door and see if there's any other work to do."

Seeing Xu Shaoyang's insistence, Sister Wang didn't say anything. But she couldn't bear to let him sit and watch TV while she made him do the work.

"Okay, I'll go water the flowers."

"Okay, go ahead!"

After Sister Wang scratched her head and left, Xu Shaoyang quickly mopped the floor, but Xia Yichu still hadn't come down. He was getting anxious and kept glancing up at the stairwell.

Just as he looked towards the stairwell again, he finally heard Xia Yichu's footsteps coming downstairs. He instantly straightened his back, and his mopping motion became even more focused.

Xia Yichu was taken aback when she saw Xu Shaoyang mopping the floor. If she remembered correctly, when Xu Shaoyang was in college and living in the dormitory, he never did any work when it was his turn to do chores; he always paid someone to do it for him.

The sun must have risen in the west today; I'm actually doing housework! Maybe Xu Shaoyang has been possessed.

"Xu Shaoyang, what are you doing?"

Xu Shaoyang stopped what he was doing, smiled and said, "Mopping the floor! I've been doing that all morning."

If I had known he used to know how to cook, it would have been perfect if he had cooked breakfast for Xia Yichu, so that Xia Yichu could see how good he was.

"Did Sister Wang take the day off today? You can leave it here; I'll come and get it later."

Xu Shaoyang is clearly not cut out for manual labor. Besides, he would be better off doing more business and achieving financial freedom.

"No need, I've been working on it all morning, it'll be done soon."

Xu Shaoyang emphasized again that he had been working all morning, but Xia Yichu's reaction was different from what he had imagined; she seemed to dislike him.

While he was puzzled, Sister Wang came out of the kitchen with breakfast.

"Miss Xia, breakfast is ready."

"Sister Wang, you're here! I thought you took the day off."

Xia Yichu glanced at Xu Shaoyang, then looked at Sister Wang. Her eyes seemed to ask Sister Wang, "What's wrong with Xu Shaoyang today?"

Sister Wang shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either, and she wanted to ask Xia Yichu! It seems she wasn't sure either.

Ring ring ring!

Just as Xia Yichu reached the dining table, the doorbell suddenly rang.

"I'll go open the door."

Sister Wang went over, but Xia Yichu wasn't in a hurry to eat, so she went back to the living room. Xia Yichu assumed it was Zheng Leran coming over; at this time, only he would come.

Who are you looking for?

Upon hearing Sister Wang's words, she and Xu Shaoyang both looked towards the door.

"Hello! Is this Xu Shaoyang's home?"

Xia Yichu shuddered, wondering if she had misheard. She thought she heard Pei Shizhou's voice. Remembering that Pei Shizhou had asked for Xu Shaoyang's address during their last phone call, Xia Yichu quickly went over there.

"Yes, you're here to see Mr. Xu. Come in quickly, he's inside."

Xu Shaoyang recognized Pei Shizhou's voice and his face was filled with disbelief. He hadn't won over Xia Yichu yet, and he prayed in his heart that Pei Shizhou wouldn't come to Hong Kong at this crucial moment.

Heaven seemed not to hear Xu Shaoyang's prayers; he heard Pei Shizhou's voice with perfect clarity.

"Xiao Chu"

Pei Shizhou had just walked in when he saw Xia Yichu walking towards him, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"Shizhou"

Pei Shizhou strode up to Xia Yichu, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her. Xia Yichu was startled at first, then wrapped her arms around Pei Shizhou's neck, returning the kiss.

Xu Shaoyang, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed, the mop in his hand falling to the ground with a clatter, remembering the pain in his face from the slap Xia Yichu had given him yesterday.

Sister Wang was so shocked that she covered her mouth. Zheng Leran and the others all said that Xia Yichu and Xu Shaoyang were a couple, but Sister Wang didn't believe it.

They didn't believe her when she said Xu Shaoyang's feelings were unrequited. Look! This Miss Xia has a boyfriend, and he's incredibly handsome.

After a long while, Pei Shizhou finally released Xia Yichu, looking at her affectionately, "Xiao Chu, I missed you, I couldn't wait a moment longer."

Pei Shizhou flew from Kyoto to Shenzhen yesterday, and drove from Shenzhen to Gangcheng early this morning.

Xia Yichu whispered, "I miss you too."

Pei Shizhou visibly became happy, ever since his uncle learned that Xia Yichu and another man had come to Hong Kong to do business.

Every day she would come to the company, point her finger at Pei Shizhou, and hurl insults at him, saying he was too carefree and that Xia Yichu would be snatched away by someone else sooner or later.

Pei Shizhou appeared calm and composed, saying that Xia Yichu wasn't that kind of person, but he was uneasy inside.

He immediately called Song Qihang, telling him to drop everything and come to Gangcheng to buy a house. Price wasn't an issue; he wanted a fully furnished one, the kind you could move into right away.

Two days ago, Song Qihang told him that the house had been bought. Pei Shizhou told Song Qihang to quickly find someone to clean the house and then buy household supplies.

The house was cleaned yesterday, and all the household items were bought. Pei Shizhou originally wanted to call Xia Yichu to talk about the house, but Gu Yunting returned. So Pei Shizhou came to Hong Kong City by himself, which led to the current situation.

"Xiao Chu"

Pei Shizhou called out to Xia Yichu with deep affection, while Xu Shaoyang, standing beside him, was practically grinding his teeth to powder.

Sister Wang watched them like a bystander, then looked at Xu Shaoyang.

"Shizhou, have you eaten?"

Pei Shizhou held Xia Yichu tightly and refused to let go. Xia Yichu symbolically struggled for a moment before letting him continue to hold her.

"No, I came to Gangcheng as soon as I got up."

Xia Yichu turned around to look at Sister Wang and called her name again.

"Sister Wang"

Sister Wang immediately reacted and said, "I cooked quite a lot of breakfast, I'll go to the kitchen and get it right away."

Xia Yichu pulled Pei Shizhou to sit down at the dining table and told him to eat first.
