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

Chapter 159

Children are always the biggest soft spot for parents.

An Zhiqing couldn't help but reflect on himself, was he really inconsiderate of their needs and feelings by insisting that Liu Ling come with him in the army?

After everything was tidied up at home and they chatted for a while, people had all left, and it was already late into the night.

After washing up, Pei Jing closed his bedroom door and went inside to call the already half-asleep Zhi Xia, "Where did you put the things I hung to dry in the middle room?"

"What things?" Zhi Xia opened her eyes hazily, her mind still a little fuzzy for that moment.

The excessive fatigue from last night really made her extremely sleepy, even though she had already taken a nap during the day.

Looking at the man in front of her discontentedly, Zhi Xia suddenly felt that he was going too far. This was a typical case of either not having enough to eat or being stuffed to death all at once, right?

However, Pei Jing had not yet realized Zhi Xia's resentment and said, "The things we used last night. I washed them clean at night and hung them on the hanger in the room. I even locked that room when I left, and left the key on the bedside table."

Other than Zhi Xia, no one else could have opened the door and touched those things.

Only then did Zhi Xia suddenly recall throwing away those few small umbrellas at noon. Recalling last night's debauchery, her face flushed red all of a sudden, "I threw them away. You even washed and hung up the used ones. Really..." Although she knew that many things could be reused in this era, she still found it hard to accept that kind of thing being reused.

"You threw them away?" Pei Jing frowned, obviously having a hard time understanding.

After all, these things could not be easily obtained. They had to go to the clinic in town and could only get two per person with a marriage certificate. He got four because he borrowed Zhao Xin's marriage certificate. After all, neither he nor Zhi Xia planned to use contraception.

Seeing Pei Jing suddenly fall silent with a grave expression, Zhi Xia could sense his mood at the moment, which did not seem to be very good.

She was wide awake in an instant. She curled up softly into his arms and snuggled under his chin, "Don't be angry, I was just joking with you. I only feel uncomfortable reusing those kinds of things, that's all. And I have plenty here that would definitely be enough for decades of use for us."

Originally feeling very tired, Zhi Xia thought of how Pei Jing had not had it easy these days either. He had to go through intense military training during the day and still had to take care of her and the children when he came home at night. So she wanted to make him happy.

"How do you have these?" Pei Jing asked her.

"From my storage space. Some things were originally stored in there. The diapers our son and daughter wear were taken out from there too. I don't know who stored them before, but they have become so convenient for me now."

As Zhi Xia spoke, she smiled sneakily, still lying on his chest. But Pei Jing's face darkened and he said, "Then it seems the previous owner of this space was probably not a decent person either." After all, no decent person would store so many of these things, enough to last several decades of use.

Excluding the time he was away and couldn't be home, even using one a day, that would still easily add up to one or two hundred a year, which would be an astounding amount over decades.

Right after Pei Jing finished speaking, he felt his wife's gentle kisses turn into dense nibbles. He quickly avoided them and pressed her head back onto his chest, "Be good. If you want to bite, then bite here."

Leaving any marks on his face would be too embarrassing when going out tomorrow.

Seeing his firm chest, Zhi Xia bit fiercely into that small red mark, making Pei Jing gasp sharply at the sensation.

"Ah..."

Pei Jing picked up Zhi Xia's entire body and turned to carry her outside.

"What are you doing?" Only then did Zhi Xia feel afraid.

"We're going next door." Pei Jing's voice was hoarse, clearly showing his arousal.

Zhi Xia wriggled in his hold, "Remember, just once tonight. Don't overdo it like last night."

Zhi Xia thought he had agreed, but failed to notice that he did not respond.

Zhi Xia now completely overturned what she had said before. She finally understood that aroused men, especially older men, were not to be provoked.

Like an old house catching fire, popping and crackling, impossible to extinguish once ablaze.

When he was unmoved, he only felt unsatisfied and tormented by hunger. But once he tasted the satisfaction of having his fill, he was like a starving wolf that found food, and would not rest until he devoured his prey.

The only dissatisfaction was that he felt the small umbrellas were too small. Although they were the largest size and seemed to be better quality and more delicate, they did not have the elasticity of the ones from the clinic.

Indeed, the ones from the clinic could be blown up as big as a winter melon. Earlier, some kid had taken one out and caused quite an embarrassing scene.

The moonlight hung high, also shyly hiding behind the clouds.

When An Zhiqing and Liu Ling returned home, they let Wen Qing go inside to sleep while they sat outside to talk.

The unhappy parting that afternoon still left Liu Ling feeling bad inside. Their precious reunion time was already short, and she really did not want to spend it arguing with him. Yet she also feared she could not fulfill his hopes, which would make the affection between husband and wife grow even more distant.

But unexpectedly, An Zhiqing directly opened his mouth, "Liu Ling, I thought about it for a long time today and decided...to respect your choice. If you are unwilling to come with the army, then stay in Jin City with Wen Qing. The conditions there will indeed be relatively better, and also better for you and our child."

Liu Ling blinked, barely believing what she was hearing.

All this time, he had hoped that she would come. He first brought up this matter even before they had a child, when they first married. She had kept declining only because she could not leave her job.

In the past, every reunion was joyful, but also somewhat fearful for her, afraid that he would keep bringing up her joining the army, leaving her feeling extremely conflicted and put in a difficult spot.

In fact, it was also her own fault. Last year when Wen Qing was injured, she had some big conflicts with her in-laws, and at the time, she did consider joining the army.

But after the matters passed, upon careful thinking, she regretted it. Yet it left him with empty joy after making so many preparations, resulting in bitter disappointment.

Although they had an arranged marriage and only met a few times before marrying, after a few years of being together, Liu Ling was also extremely fond of An Zhiqing.

Aside from their differing opinions on her joining the army, he would give her all his money to manage and care for her and their child. He did not have her father-in-law's chauvinism of never cooking or doing laundry, believing those were women's duties that men should not do.

Every summer vacation she went over, and when he returned home to visit relatives, they would always consider her feelings first when together.

With reddened eyes, Liu Ling rushed into his embrace, choking up as she said, "I'm sorry for letting you feel empty joy."

In the adult world, there were always many helplessness and considerations.

Not everything could go smoothly. That was life!
