Chapter 231

She deliberately chose such a perceptive partner, which, along with many benefits, also concealed many drawbacks.

For example, it was difficult to keep any small secrets hidden.

Pei Jing always felt that she had something more to say, but he didn't dare to ask, fearing that it would bring back unpleasant memories.

"A Jing, I can't bear to be without you, what should I do?" Zhi Xia nestled in his arms, still feeling that the time they spent together in the military was the most carefree and beautiful.

If only she had known, it would have been better not to come back here, then she wouldn't have had so many complications. She could have raised the child alone, although it would be tiring, she could have asked the helpful sisters-in-law next door for assistance.

But now, if she were to say that she wanted to leave with five children and Pei Jing, no one would understand her actions. Instead, they would think she was being difficult.

Pei Jing placed one hand on her back and pressed gently, bringing them closer together.

She couldn't bear the separation, and neither could he.

It wasn't the first time they had realized that having so many children wasn't a good thing. Despite others' envy, only they knew the hardships involved.

Thinking about what the commanding officer and the battalion commander had discussed when he returned, Pei Jing suddenly felt a surge of excitement.

Perhaps he could strive for something as well. Although he didn't have an advantage in terms of age, since he had drunk what Zhi Xia had given him, Pei Jing could clearly feel the changes in his body. It was as if there was endless potential waiting to be tapped. Every time he exerted himself to exhaustion, his physical strength would increase significantly.

Pei Jing had already made up his mind, but he didn't tell Zhi Xia.

Firstly, it was a secret within the military and hadn't been made public yet. Secondly, he didn't know the final outcome, and he didn't want to give her hope only to disappoint her.

Pei Jing comforted her and went to pick up the children in the afternoon.

During their final days at home, he devoted all his time to being with the children.

But ultimately, there came a time to part ways. On the day they had to leave, he dropped the children off at the An Family and quietly left.

All three children were fast asleep. She locked the door from the inside and entered the space.

Wealthy Woman of that Era: "Customer service, if I want to destroy these things that can awaken memories, it shouldn't be against the rules, right?"

After all, currently, these were the personal belongings of a high school girl.

[It is not against the rules, but I suggest that the host not destroy them privately. They can be recycled.]

Zhi Xia laughed happily. Finally, during the days when Pei Jing was absent, could she act without any restraints?

"By the way, there's another question. Why are there so many strange things happening in this world? I just want to live a peaceful life, why is it so difficult?"

[Host, ever since you were reborn, your existence has been strange in the eyes of others. The transaction device and the space also don't belong to this world.]

Zhi Xia was still fortunate because she had the transaction device. Even if she encountered strange things, she could always receive prompts, unlike others. Aside from Pei Jing, no one else currently knew about her extraordinary nature.

Forget it, it's none of her business how others are with her. Now, the only thing left is the stuff from Gaomeiyun in the second year of high school. The revenge has already been avenged. Once those things are destroyed, everyone can go their separate ways. No matter what happens in the future, as long as they don't bother her, Zhixia definitely won't actively seek out that family.

She took out the diary and according to the system's judgment, the ability to awaken people is in this book. The pen itself is nothing special.

This should be Gao Meiyun's reincarnated golden finger, but unfortunately, she didn't have a chance to discover anything special before she died.

Zhixia kept all the blank pages in the back and stored them in the storage compartment of the trading device. Maybe they would come in handy later, so it's better to keep some tricks up her sleeve.

As for the pages that already had writing on them, she returned them all to the trading device.

She already had many different dimensions, and the things that were too special couldn't be exchanged, so Zhixia chose to exchange them for star coins, but she only got a thousand.

As for why it was so little, it was because those pages had already been used.

Zhixia suspected that the trading device was tricking her, but she had no choice but to accept it.

Looking at her small remaining balance, she decisively bought a treasure-hunting rat from Huniu.

The genes in the beast world are really strange. The species of the offspring born to females depends on the father. Just like Huniu's father was a tiger, so Huniu herself is also a tiger. But her mate is a wolf and a lion, so the cubs she gives birth to inherit the genes of her mate.

When the cubs are born, they are in animal form, but they can transform after a few months. If the transformation fails, they will be driven out of the clan and become wild beasts, or they may become food for wild beasts.

But because they have the genes of the beast people, they are more intelligent than ordinary wild beasts.

Zhixia learned this from chatting with Huniu. She still keeps one of Huniu's cubs in her space, and it's a lion.

Knowing that this is a time of peace for Zhixia, Huniu insisted on giving the cub to her as a pet, which is better than being left in the mountains and eaten by wild beasts.

But due to its large size, it can only be kept in the space and cannot be taken out, and this species is not suitable as a pet.

But can't refuse such a generous offer, so she had to accept it.

Fortunately, there is no danger in the space, and those chickens, ducks, geese, cows, and sheep have already formed groups. Except for the fact that time passes quickly in the space and shortens their lives, the little lion is also doing well in there.

As for the large beasts from the beast world that Huniu gave her, she also keeps a few in the space, but they are on the other side of the space, far away from each other, and there is hardly any chance of them meeting.

This treasure-hunting rat is said to be a cub of the Rodent Clan that failed to transform. It doesn't have much attacking power itself, but many females are willing to keep such a partner to go treasure hunting. If they are lucky, they can leave behind descendants.

When she took it out, it crouched in front of the trading board and stretched its head out, wanting to rub against Zhixia's hand.

With its golden fur and only two silver-gray ears, it's even cuter than the hamsters in the market.

Zhi Xia was a little scared, so when it approached, she instinctively dodged.

The Treasure-Seeking Mouse seemed somewhat disappointed and sat there obediently, without any other movement.

Things in the Beast World were generally larger, so Zhi Xia thought the Treasure-Seeking Mouse wouldn't be too small either. But she didn't expect it to be only the size of her palm.

"You must be the Treasure-Seeking Mouse, right? Hello, I'll be your owner from now on. Let me give you a new name. How about calling you Yuan Bao?" Zhi Xia needed to be on good terms with it after all, and besides, it was quite adorable. She mustered up the courage to interact with it.

Yuan Bao rubbed against her and stood up, looking excited. It vigorously nodded its little mouse head.

When Tiger Niu Ah Ma sent it over, she mentioned that it should please the new owner. Then it would never have to worry about food and shelter. Otherwise, if it were returned, it would be driven out of the tribe. With such a small body and no attacking power, it wouldn't survive without protection.

It was because the new owner had a need that it had such good luck to come to a peaceful place as a pet.

It actually understood what she was saying. Zhi Xia curiously extended her hand towards it, gesturing for it to come onto her palm.

Even if it didn't have the ability to find treasures, she would still be very willing to raise such a small pet with human-like qualities, wouldn't she?

The furry touch filled her palm, tickling her, but this time, the feeling of fear was much less.

Zhi Xia carefully held it and went to the kitchen to get a piece of cooked meat, placing it in a small plate.

Yuan Bao sniffed it and instantly plunged its little head in, devouring the piece of meat in no time.

It sat on the table, holding its stomach. It was truly too adorable.
