After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies

Chapter 352

Money and power have always been inseparable since ancient times.

If it were not for An ZhiXia disrupting her plans, Gao Second Sister would have guided Gao Dalin to make money through business according to her plans.

Before her own graduation, Gao Second Sister would have found some connections to get into a government department. With her capabilities and hard work, it would only be a matter of time before she moved up.

By then, the two siblings would control both money and power. Who else would dare bully them?

Alas, man proposes but God disposes.

Gao Second Sister thought her plans were flawless, but they were disrupted by the appearance of An ZhiXia.

Strangely, Gao Second Sister had been working hard for the college entrance exam all these years, yet she was not fully confident before the exam. That was why she bribed someone with good grades who had just graduated but was in need to take the exam in her place.

Yet An ZhiXia, who had never set foot in school, got admitted. Even if An ZhiXia went back to study hard for these past few years, how much could she have learned?

Gao Second Sister was very suspicious about this.

A thought suddenly emerged in her mind.

Could An ZhiXia also have found someone to take the exam in her place in order to obtain the diploma, just like herself?

Just as she was pondering the possibility of this, Gao Dalin had a thought. He saw a man lying on the street with half of his head poking out. His face could not be seen, but he wore a pure black woolen overcoat and shiny new leather shoes.

Looking at himself, although he had money now, he was still shabbily dressed.

Second sister said they had to dress like this to avoid attention. They often came and went in the wind and rain, and although they were in the city, they didn’t even have a house of their own. It would be troublesome if others paid too much attention to them.

It wasn't that Gao Second Sister didn't want to buy a house. It was just unrealistic for them to buy a house in the city with their rural household registration. Signing private contracts was risky in case there was demolition a few years later.

Therefore, after careful consideration, they decided to talk about it again in a few years.

After all, before the real estate boom, housing prices would not rise sharply. They would make money first and get their household registration in the city settled before thinking about buying property.

At least in the next decade or two, city household registration would bring many more benefits than rural registration.

Gao Dalin ran over, wanting to take off the man's clothes and shoes. Pei JianGuo was sleeping soundly. He felt a bit cold but that was his only source of warmth, and he clung onto it tightly, refusing to let go. Gao Dalin couldn't wrestle it from him and kicked him in annoyance.

Only then did Gao Second Sister react. She scolded angrily, "Gao Dalin, what are you doing?"

But by then, Pei JianGuo had already felt the pain. His red eyes snapped open and he glared fiercely at the person trying to rob his clothes.

Everyone bullied him. Even after he had hidden here, they still wouldn’t leave him alone.

Damn it. He might as well die. It would be best if they all died cleanly.

"Oh crap, he's gonna beat someone to death!" Pei JianGuo fought back fiercely. Gao Dalin was hit several times instantly, and one kick landed on his belly. He doubled over in pain and shouted for Gao Second Sister's help. "What are you staring blankly for? Come and help me quickly. Kill this son of a bitch!"

Damn, he dared to hit him.

When Gao Second Sister looked up, she saw a familiar face.

"Big brother, stop!"

"Gao Second Sister, who are you helping?"

After a moment of chaos, Pei JianGuo finally recognized the woman helping him was someone he had met before.

They meant well. Seeing him sleeping on the main road, they wanted to help wake him up. But they didn't expect him to kick and punch them when he woke up. It was really embarrassing.

It was all a misunderstanding. After Pei JianGuo apologized to Gao Dalin, Gao Dalin still refused to forgive him at first. But under Gao Second Sister's warning gaze, he conceded defeat.

When Gao Second Sister learned Pei JianGuo didn't want to go home, she let him stay with Gao Dalin for the night. It was too cold outside after all.

Pei JianGuo was deeply grateful. His good feelings for the siblings also grew.

Afterwards, Gao Dalin asked Gao Second Sister puzzledly, "He is the nephew of that Grassy Guy. Why are we helping him? Are you out of your mind?"

Gao Second Sister disdainfully laughed. "Just do as I say. If your brain isn't good, don't ask too much. He is someone who works for the government after all. Building good relationships with him may come in useful someday."

Only then did Gao Dalin understand and nodded.

He knew Second Sister was always eager for profits. How could she help someone for no reason? He almost thought she had taken a liking to the man.

But it was worrying. Gao Dalin was already in his thirties. Some time ago he had fooled around with a woman, but he was too used to sexy mature ones. The tender young ones didn't seem to have enough flavor.

Second Sister was thirty now too. Let alone getting married, she hadn't even been close to a man. He didn't know what kind of man she could fancy.

Pei Jing rode his bike around in circles but couldn't find Pei JianGuo. He had to go back home first.

Light snow floated outside. An ZhiXia brought a hot water bottle filled with hot water to warm Pei Jing's hands. "Did you find him?"

Pei Jing shook his head. "Forget about him. A grown man can't freeze to death."

When he thought about it carefully, it was quite irritating indeed.

But for Pei Jing who had memories of his past life, Pei JianGuo's behavior was at least still tolerable. Because in his previous life, Pei JianGuo had been even worse.

Back then, in a few years, Pei JianGuo's behavior also made big brother bedridden. Pei Jing was forced to take on the responsibility of educating him.

He had tried all the persuasion and punishments, but couldn't change that abnormal mindset.

In this life, Pei Jing didn't want to manage him anymore or keep bailing him out. As long as Pei JianGuo didn't break the law, he could do as he wished. If his life was miserable, he had brought it on himself. Pei Jing would not suffer with him.

Pei Jing had considered educating him early, but the things that needed to be said had already been said. It was no use. He couldn't tie Pei JianGuo up with a rope either.

Since Pei Jing spoke like this, An ZhiXia certainly wouldn't ask any further.

What should have been a happy Chinese New Year's Eve was ruined by this incident, and they couldn't muster any joy at all.

After all, it was someone else’s business. They had to live their own lives.

Some time later, An ZhiXia heard Pei JianGuo was hospitalized, supposedly beaten up by the Lu brothers.

But it seemed Pei JianGuo was blessed with good luck. Right after returning from the hospital, he beat up Lu Keqin.

Since then, their lives were never peaceful. News that Pei JianGuo was beaten by the Lu brothers and then Lu Keqin was beaten by Pei JianGuo came frequently.

It even escalated to the public security bureau, but was always handled as a domestic dispute. The neighborhood committee had advised them countless times too. Over time, people got used to it.

As for why they didn't divorce after beating each other like this, it was truly puzzling.

Time flew by, and the brief college life soon came to an end.

It was during this period that the affair between Wang Li and Liu Xuan was completely exposed. The cause was Wang Li discussing it with her mother at home, and the conversation was overheard by Li Fei when Wang Li was eight months pregnant.

Around the same time, the grand opening of Liu Xuan and Wu Xiaohua’s Horizon Hotel took place.
