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

Chapter 226

He quietly crawled up the window, circled around the table inside, and perfectly landed on the ground.

After closing the window with the back of his hand, the frowning eyebrows did not relax.

He understood Xia Zhi's temper. Her seemingly gentle appearance actually hid a very stubborn heart inside.

Otherwise, she would not have refused to forgive An Jingzhi and Zhou Nan for so many years.

Pei Jing walked anxiously to the front of the bed and immediately saw that she had not fallen asleep.

She lay flat on the bed, looking up, without even giving him a glance.

Her expression was still relatively calm, but her eyes were filled with tears, like a clear spring, as if when full, she could not hold them and they would flow down.

If he still felt a little relieved when he first entered, at this moment, it made him feel extremely uneasy.

His fingers unconsciously hooked, and his voice slightly trembled as he called her, "Xia Zhi ..."

He sat on the edge of the bed, leaning over her, completely denying her the chance to avoid his eyes.

Xia Zhi's eyes moved slightly, but her gaze remained clear and waveless, with a touch of coldness in her tightly pursed lips.

Pei Jing sucked in a breath, hugged her wrapped in the quilt into his arms, "Xia Zhi, don't be like this, okay? Let's talk nicely. Don't be angry anymore?"

"I've been waiting for you to talk nicely to me. You were the one being secretive and refused to speak," Xia Zhi was still calm. She had thought about it for a long time alone before he returned.

The life full of warmth and affection, there was suddenly a moment, that she felt meaningless.

"I didn't refuse to speak, you just didn't ask me," Pei Jing said.

Xia Zhi struggled and got herself out of the quilt, "So what you mean is, you're blaming me?"

"No," Pei Jing rubbed his nose. Seeing her vent her anger, he was not so worried.

He took out the tightly wrapped cookie box from his clothes and handed it to Xia Zhi, "I know you don't want me to get in touch with Zhao Runze, and you don't want me to know some things. But I still want to tell you, since things have happened, we can only seek solutions. Escape is not the perfect plan. Also, even if you want to conceal some things, you have to sweep the tails clean."

Xia Zhi stared blankly at the box. The box was obviously very old with rust stains all over it and the original color could no longer be seen.

But she already had a premonition that Zhao Runze’s awakening of memories was probably related to the things in this box.

"These past few days, you were busy with this?" Xia Zhi looked at him in astonishment.

Pei Jing nodded, he did not deliberately hide it from her either, "Xia Zhi, this Zhao Runze person..." After all, for the time being, the other party hadn't done anything. Pei Jing didn't want to make comments, he just reminded her, "Zhao Runze told me some strange things. He seems to treat you very differently..."

He said that Xia Zhi could be happy, but in fact.

His meaningful words all indicated that he had Xia Zhi in mind, or rather... that An Meixia.

Pei Jing was no fool. If he was more sensitive, based on what Zhao Runze said, he would have contradictions with Xia Zhi.

He was also aware of some things, but before getting confirmation, he really didn't want to speculate in that direction.

Xia Zhi knew what was going on with Zhao Runze.

But for things in that life, even if she was not involved, she did not want them to be exposed either.

Whether it was Zhao Runze or Pei Jianguo, she only felt disgusted with both.

"Did you look at it? The stuff inside?" Xia Zhi thought that the things inside would disrupt her peaceful life, so she should feel very upset, but when it really came to this moment, when the things were placed in front of her, she felt extremely calm, calmer than ever.

Pei Jing shook his head, "I went to find it only because I didn't want these things to fall into someone else's hands and hurt you. Xia Zhi, I understand you are different from others, but since you are my wife, as long as you are still you and I am still me, we will be firm enough that nothing can disrupt our peaceful life." This was the guarantee Pei Jing gave her, "Xia Zhi, maybe you can try to believe in me a little more." 𝑓𝓇𝘦𝘦𝔀𝓮𝒷𝘯𝓸𝓋𝓮𝘭.𝓬𝓸𝘮

"I've always believed in you very much." No matter which aspect, the impressions he left in her past and present lives were always outstanding.

But no one can be perfect, and Xia Zhi didn't think she was that good either.

Perhaps without that accidental incident, he would never even glance at her, let alone love and respect her like now.

"I mean it. Since it's found, take a look," she said.

Humans are always curious. Even if he really didn't watch, there was still Zhao Runze talking nonsense. He might still think otherwise.

She might as well tell him everything today. Even if these things were truly exposed in the future, she didn't lie to him.

Xia Zhi opened the cookie tin. It was fastened very tightly and still a bit difficult to open. At the moment it opened, some rust dirtied her hands.

This also showed that the box had probably not been opened for a long time.

Inside the box was a chipped fountain pen and a notebook. The pen looked very old, and the notebook cover was also yellowish, apparently a few years old.

Xia Zhi did not hide it and opened the notebook in front of him, "Take a look."

The notebook was obviously missing many pages. More than half of the thick notebook had been torn off. The beginning was filled with words written closely together. There were still a few blank pages in the back without any writing.

The first few pages recorded major national events that happened in recent years. After that were introductions to people, including some that she knew, such as Liu Jun, but the difference was that it stated Liu Jun went to the countryside in 1972, took the first college entrance examination in 1977 after returning to the city, worked in the Industry and Commerce Bureau, and rose through the ranks to become the bureau director before the age of forty.

Xia Zhi read a few pages before losing interest. She flipped the notebook over to Pei Jing, "Take a look."

Although he had expected it earlier, Pei Jing was still shocked when he actually saw these.

"So the piece of paper Zhao Runze had was torn from this notebook?" Pei Jing wondered, "This notebook, could let the people recorded in it..." Awaken some memories they should not have?

He was suspicious, yet did not dare to ask directly.
