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

"Shi Zhou, when did you get involved with He Jiaying?"

They were eating when they saw He Jiaying, a middle-aged woman, and a young man having dinner in the restaurant lobby.

I happened to be sitting right outside their private room window, so I could not only see them, but also hear them talking. Because He Jiaying and the other person got into a loud argument, everyone heard it.

The man is a divorcee; his wife passed away two years ago from illness, and they have a son and a daughter. He wants He Jiaying to stay home, not work, and take care of his children and cook after marrying him.

The man said his son is only three years old and his daughter is only four, and they currently have a nanny and the children's grandmother taking care of them. The children's grandmother is not in good health and wants her son to find a wife as soon as possible to help them.

I met He Jiaying through an introduction. I heard that she had been married for a year or two but had not had any children, so I guessed she had some health problems and couldn't have children.

The groom's mother was overjoyed upon hearing this, thinking to herself that He Jiaying was meant for her son and that it would be wonderful if she could give birth to a healthy baby!

She was worried that her son's new wife would mistreat her two grandchildren. The man's mother immediately asked the matchmaker to arrange for her son to meet He Jiaying at a restaurant, and gave her son a strict order to win her over.

That's why Xia Yichu and the others saw everything at the restaurant today. He Jiaying could accept the man's offer to let her not work; she had long wanted to quit. Who wants to work and be mistreated when they have money?

If the man wasn't divorced, his circumstances are quite good. He's a local from Kyoto, which explains why He Jiaying was willing to meet him even though she knew he had two children.

The man also owns a small supermarket, which is said to be doing well. The matchmaker said he can earn around 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a month.

However, the man asked her to get up at five or six in the morning to go to the supermarket with him to restock, clean, and organize the goods. Then, at eight o'clock, she would go home to cook for the children and her mother-in-law.

Then they stay home to do housework and take care of the children. After the children fall asleep at noon, He Jiaying goes to the supermarket to help out. They return home to cook dinner, which saves them the money of hiring a nanny.

That wasn't the end of it. The man mentioned he had a younger brother who ran a barbecue restaurant. He told He Jiaying that after putting the children to sleep that night, she would have to go with him to help his brother.

According to the man, He Jiaying could only sleep four hours a day. He Jiaying wasn't stupid; she angrily stood up and gave the man a good scolding.

The man retaliated with insults, and the two ended up arguing in the restaurant. It was the matchmaker, feeling embarrassed, who pulled the man away.

Perhaps it was because Xia Yichu and the others in their private room were laughing too loudly that He Jiaying saw them. After the man and the matchmaker left, He Jiaying went inside and said something.

"Xia Yichu, are you satisfied now that you see me like this!" Then, before anyone could react, she ran away crying, covering her face.

"Don't talk nonsense. I was also confused when she first came to my company. After she took the photos to the company last time, I heard that she divorced her husband the next day."

It seems that Ho Ka-ying is in a hurry; she couldn't wait to start going on blind dates not long after her divorce.

"Oh"

He Jiaying's divorce was within Xia Yichu's expectations. In fact, if He Jiaying had lived a good life and hadn't done those things, her life wouldn't have been bad.

According to Zhou Miaoying, her ex-husband's family is quite nice. He Jiaying has been married for a year but hasn't had a child yet. Although her mother-in-law sometimes says a few things, it's all for her own good. Her ex-husband was sincere towards He Jiaying, and she was heartbroken for a while after the divorce.

He has even said more than once that he regrets divorcing He Jiaying and plans to remarry her. However, his family disagrees, and now that He Jiaying is looking for someone else, his family is probably even more opposed.

The next morning, Xia Yichu had just finished breakfast when the phone rang. Pei Shizhou was washing dishes in the kitchen when Xia Yichu answered the phone.

"Feed"

As soon as she answered the phone, Xu Shaoyang's excited voice came from the other end.

"Yichu, good news, good news! Xiao Wangshu's movie has grossed over 10 million yuan in a single month."

It's one thing that he and Xia Yichu made money from investing in this movie, but the most important thing is that Xiao Wangshu became a sensation, bringing huge profits to their company.

The company has recently secured many brand endorsements and roles with directors of TV dramas and movies. In order to work with Xiao Wangshu, they have given many audition opportunities to other artists in the company.

Everyone in the company has been incredibly busy lately, especially Zheng Leran. He's been swamped with drinking parties, some of which he can't refuse, all wanting him to collaborate with Xiao Wangshu.

He also has to select suitable works for the artists, find people to train them, and create their personas.

Xu Shaoyang urged Zheng Leran to recruit more people so they could catch their breath. Unfortunately, Xia Yichu was pregnant at this time and couldn't fight alongside them.

"Very good"

Xia Yichu was a little excited, but not as excited as Xu Shaoyang, after all, this movie had grossed over 100 million yuan in its previous year.

"Yichu, I'll have the finance department transfer the profits from the movie and the company to your account in a few days. Remember to check it."

"Okay, Shaoyang, is Wangshu filming? Also, how's Zhou Yutian doing lately? Has Huang Cuiping been bullying her?"

"Wang Shu will be joining the film crew in a few days. Huang Cuiping didn't bully Zhou Yutian. Zheng Leran got Zhou Yutian a role, and she's currently waiting to film on set."

Yichu, don't worry! Take good care of yourself and come help as soon as you give birth. We're all so busy.

After hearing Xu Shaoyang's words, Xia Yichu wished she could fly to Hong Kong right now to help.

"Okay, I'll go to Hong Kong as soon as I give birth to the baby."

In six or seven months, she will be able to go to Hong Kong. Xia Yichu is looking forward to her time there. Xu Shaoyang and Zheng Leran hope that you will strive as hard as you did in your previous life to make the company bigger and stronger—no, even more so than in your previous life.

After all, Xia Yichu used her past life to give her company a cheat code. She signed several future celebrities she knew and could find to her company.

"Okay, Yichu, I'm not talking to you anymore, I have to go to a meeting at the company!"

"it is good"

Xia Yichu was still very happy after hanging up the phone. Pei Shizhou finished washing the dishes and came out of the kitchen.

"Xiao Chu, was that Xu Shaoyang calling just now?"

Pei Shizhou is no longer jealous of Xu Shaoyang at all. The longer he spends with Xia Yichu, the more he realizes that Xia Yichu has no romantic feelings for Xu Shaoyang whatsoever.

The only kind of cooperative relationship that Xia Yichu wanted to make money with was one where Pei Shizhou thought that if Xu Shaoyang didn't have the ability to do business, Xia Yichu might not even want to associate with him.

Seeing Pei Shizhou walk over, Xia Yichu hugged him tightly like an octopus.

"Yes, honey, our company is doing great, and we're about to make a fortune. A steady stream of money. Can you understand how I feel?"

Pei Shizhou was used to Xia Yichu calling him "husband" when she was in a good mood, and he carefully hugged her. Xia Yichu's belly was already starting to show, and Pei Shizhou was beginning to worry when he saw her acting carelessly.

"Sure, shall we celebrate tonight?"

Pei Shizhou wanted to take Xia Yichu out to a restaurant for a meal, as the two of them hadn't eaten out in a long time.

"Great, it's perfect timing since I haven't visited my sister-in-law since she finished her postpartum confinement. Let's go to my aunt's house for dinner tonight."

Xia Yichu attended the baby's one-month celebration and the day Yu Mengxi finished her postpartum confinement, so it's only been ten days since she last went.

"Okay, whatever you say."

Pei Shizhou reluctantly agreed, and Xia Yichu would immediately think of the Lin family whenever she had any good news.
