After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 299: Life is your choice.

Pei JianGuo's initiative to admit his mistake prevented ZhiXia from telling Pei Jing about it. As Pei JianGuo left this place, he wandered the streets in a daze, circling around once, yet his heart felt increasingly empty.

Home was also empty.

He had originally planned to pick up Guo Momo to bring her home today, but something happened on the way that required him to hastily send the lady to the hospital and rush over here to apologize to ZhiXia, without even getting to see Guo Momo’s face.

He seemed to have forgotten something, what was it again?

He couldn't quite recall it.

Extremely annoyed, there was always a sense of irritation hovering in his heart.

Since he would be alone when he went back now, he simply went out drinking with good friends instead.

Pei ChenYe, on the other hand, secretly slipped out while ZhiXia was busy taking care of Xiao Liu, and went next door to Old Grandpa's house to call Pei Jing.

In order to facilitate contact, plus Old Grandpa's seniority level was high enough, they spent a lot of money last year to install a telephone.

Pei ChenYe had always been precocious and understood some things without needing to be told, just because he didn't talk about them didn't mean he didn't understand.

When Pei Jing received the call, he had just finished today's training after a day of tumbling around covered in mud in the mountains. He had just washed off the mud when that shameless An ZhiAng attacked him again.

Such things had long become commonplace. In the beginning, everyone would still pinch a cold sweat for An ZhiAng, but later, after fully understanding Pei Jing, they would even join An ZhiAng in his sneak attacks, determined to take down this instructor.

But unfortunately, they always fell short by a little bit.

ZhiXia felt someone else’s presence in the space while she was sleeping. She opened her tired eyes to see little Liu sleeping soundly next to her before entering the space.

Pei Jing was originally sitting on the soft sofa when ZhiXia suddenly appeared beside him. She snuggled weakly against his shoulder and he reflexively put his arm around her to hug her in his embrace.

Looking at his delicate wife in his arms who couldn’t even keep her eyes open, Pei Jing recalled ChenYe's tattling and his gaze darkened as he took her hand and turned it palm-side up.

Sure enough, there were abrasions all over her palm.

At this moment, ZhiXia also instantly woke up and opened her eyes wide.

"Why didn't you tell me?" As the owner of this space, ZhiXia could summon him whenever she wanted to see him, although he had the right to refuse entering.

Only then did ZhiXia realize what he was referring to. "How did you know? Did ChenYe tattle on me?"

In the family, only he was the smart one. The younger ones were still small, and WanQing was carefree and boyish, no one else would have tattled except him.

But Pei Jing was dissatisfied with her changing the subject. "You still haven't answered me, why didn't you tell me?"

ZhiXia snuggled up to him coquettishly in his arms. “I did intend to tell you, so you could teach your silly nephew a good lesson for me. It’s not like I’m Guo Momo who can let him bully me as he wishes. But before I had the chance, he came over to apologize and even brought the stick Father left behind for me to hit him with. I had already avenged myself so I didn’t tell you about it anymore.”

"But you still shouldn't have kept it from me. Next time something happens you have to tell me first thing." If it weren't for ChenYe who had grown up and knew to call him, who knows when he would have found out about ZhiXia's injuries by the time they met, and her wounds might have already healed.

"I know, I know, my Instructor Pei!" ZhiXia joked deliberately: "This little thing of mine is nothing. But it seems your good nephew and Momo are in more serious trouble."

Speaking of this, she suddenly recalled something and looked intensely at Pei Jing, "There's something off about you. He's your nephew and has gotten himself into this situation, yet you don't intend to do anything about it?"

This was not Pei Jing's style at all.

Even knowing what happened in the previous life, the people at fault were Wang Yue and Pei Shuangshuang. When you look closely, Pei JianGuo was also a victim. Pei Jing had always clearly distinguished grievances and gratitude, and he placed extreme importance on familial bonds. Even if he was dissatisfied with Pei JianGuo at first, after such a long time, he shouldn’t still resent Pei JianGuo.

"However he chooses to live his life is his own choice. No one can replace him.” Pei Jing's voice was somewhat cold.

But he had interfered last time. After all, he was single back then without children, so inevitably he cared more about Pei JianGuo. 𝐟𝐫eewe𝗯𝐧𝚘ve𝐥.c𝚘𝚖

After Old Pei passed away and Pei Yong was always in the army, it was him who managed everything in the family.

Pei Jing had great self-restraint, but he couldn’t restrain other people's thoughts.

Someone like Pei JianGuo would wear out whoever lived with him.

Patiently persuading him would work for a while, but within days, his old bad habits would relapse again.

In Pei Jing’s memories from his previous life, he had controlled Pei JianGuo for a whole lifetime before finding out the truth on his deathbed, and he had almost died from anger in his sickbed.

In this life, he didn’t want to torment himself anymore.

They were all adults now. As long as JianGuo didn’t break laws or disciplines, it was fine.

Besides, Pei Jing was also in the army himself, gone for ten days or half a month at a time, unable to spend time with his own six children, let alone have the heart to discipline an adult nephew.
