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

Chapter 371

“Uncle, do you know that if it wasn't for you taking the initiative back then, who knows if An ZhiXia would have married me instead. It was you who snatched away the fortune that belonged to me, right?"

He thought back to when he and Qing Cheng went out that time, and on the road they met a master who said that his fortune and family had been snatched away.

He should have had a smooth career and a harmonious family, but because something went wrong and he married the wrong person, it led to all the troubles today.

He didn't actually believe in these things originally and didn't intend to bring it up, but seeing Pei Jing scolding him like that, he suddenly felt a bit unwilling.

He remembered at that time, his mother had been trying to persuade him, wanting him to marry An ZhiXia.

But he liked An MeiYun then, so naturally he refused, and just dragged it out like that, and then came the news that uncle wanted to marry her.

Thinking about it now, that hastily arranged wedding was clearly premeditated.

"Did Gao Second Sister tell you that?" Pei Jing didn't need to doubt, "Pei JianGuo, let me give you one more piece of advice, your brain isn't there just for show, it can also be used to think!"

He wasn't worried that Pei JianGuo would have memories of a past life, that diary had been mostly destroyed up till now, and the tiny portion that wasn't destroyed was still under An ZhiXia's control, outsiders had no way of obtaining it.

The trading device in the space, other than An ZhiXia, even he and the children had no control over it.

Also in the space, even a scrap of paper, they couldn't bring out.

The car sounded, and a long time after Pei Jing left, Pei JianGuo still couldn't get up from the ground.

Clutching his chest, he stumbled back and knocked on the door of his home. Wang Yue opened the door, and saw his half-dead appearance, with a clear footprint imprinted on the pure white shirt. Pei JianGuo's face was pale, his forehead covered in cold sweat of agony.

"Son, what's happened? Was it Pei Jing?" Wang Yue instantly exploded, both heartache and worry, while also hating Pei Jing through gritted teeth.

"Mom, don't worry, I'll be fine after lying down for a bit." Pei JianGuo waved away her hand trying to support him, and went upstairs by himself with difficulty.

Pei Jing had been delayed for so long that by the time he returned home, it was already midnight.

An ZhiXia was still thinking and hadn't gone to sleep yet. Hearing movement outside, she blanked for a moment, then immediately stood up and ran outside.

Opening the door, Pei Jing had just gotten out of the car.

An ZhiXia's tranquil little face instantly turned from overcast to sunny, revealing a big smile, "I'll open the door, you drive the car in, don't want it getting accidentally scratched."

"Okay." Pei Jing got back into the car, and drove it into the yard.

The children were already asleep, the house was quiet, only the light in Chenye's room was still on, but he didn't come out, unclear if he was asleep or not.

Pei Jing pulled An ZhiXia into the room, and said: "I just came back from Pei JianGuo's place, An ZhiXia, I remember I said before that if you're bullied, you have to tell me. What did you do?"

"I didn't..." She wanted to say she wasn't bullied, but Pei JianGuo's tone really made her feel awful.

Also, other than spouting threats, Pei JianGuo didn't actually have any ability, she was still thinking about how to deal with Gao Second Sister.

She was the one scheming things behind the scenes, without her, Pei JianGuo was nothing to fear.

But thinking Pei Jing had asked, he must already know everything that happened, An ZhiXia didn't try to evade anymore, and asked back, "How did you know? Did the kids tattle?"

The several kids in the family were crafty, this wasn't the first time.

She also didn't know how they conspired, the few children had simply become his eyes in the family, An ZhiXia couldn't hide anything from him.

"That's not something you should be concerned with, Comrade An ZhiXia, I'm settling accounts with you now, don't change the subject." Pei Jing said as sternly as he could.

"Oh fine, it's not a big deal anyway, don't you understand what kind of person your nephew is, he's just like that, what use is it for you to come back and scold him for a few days, after a while he'll be the same again, you can't come back every time right?"

To deal with it completely and permanently was also a bit unrealistic.

Pei JianGuo was the type to not make huge mistakes but small mistakes frequently, and verbal warnings were useless on him.

Pei Jing could also hear the helplessness in her tone, and sighed, "Sorry, from now on he absolutely won't dare to do this again."

"You hit him?" This was An ZhiXia's first reaction.

Pei Jing nodded, "He deserved to be hit, I regret now that I hit him too late, too lightly."

If he had known earlier that he dared to act so recklessly, he should have severely taught him a lesson long ago.

Pei Jing had to do it himself to be clear, although that kick didn't seem heavy, it was enough to make Pei JianGuo suffer for a period of time, and also for him to learn a long lesson.

Just as he said, brains are for thinking, not for decoration.

An ZhiXia of course wouldn't plead for Pei JianGuo. For things like being wronged and having someone make a special trip back to take revenge for her, that comforted her even more.

That original An ZhiXia had been extremely deprived of love, although reborn again, no longer demanding those ethereal things, but who didn't hope they could be cherished?

She was moved and hugged Pei Jing's waist, "You're so good."

Pei Jing gave a low laugh, then suddenly restrained himself and said, "The problem isn't with Pei JianGuo, at most he's just an annoyance who doesn't dare do anything out of line. Rather, it's that Gao Second Sister, she seems to want to use Pei JianGuo to do something, actually directing Pei JianGuo towards that nonexistent world..."

"I know, it was also me being careless, originally feeling like these siblings wouldn't cause much trouble..." so she didn't deal a fatal blow, only thinking of trapping them in that mountain village.

An ZhiXia hurriedly stopped speaking, looking up to see Pei Jing looking at her thoughtfully.

"If I had known earlier they wouldn't let me go, I should have taken precautions sooner." She hurriedly changed the subject, absolutely not daring to reveal her dark thoughts to Pei Jing.

Even if they broke the law, they should be punished by the law, not her personally taking action.

Pei Jing was an upright military man, but she wasn't. She didn't even dare let him know of her dark side.

An ZhiXia thought she was concealing it well, but how could someone as perceptive as Pei Jing not notice.

With a suspicious look, he said, "Leave Gao Second Sister and Gao Dalin's side to me, I'll investigate these siblings properly through legitimate means. Their sudden wealth while having an experience like yours, they definitely can't withstand investigation."

Domestic prices were still very low nowadays, it was impossible for them to become so wealthy through normal means.

Just that one small villa in Jincheng alone couldn't be bought cheaply, not to mention the batch of controllers they intercepted was worth over 100,000 yuan, and they had bought it at a high price back then. And they were also planning to bid on government land, in just a few short years being able to amass a fortune worth tens of thousands. If it was all through proper channels, even Pei Jing would be forced to admire them.
