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

Chapter 164

"If it bothers you, I wouldn't have brought you here," Zhi Xia said. "Actually, I'm not entirely sure myself, but I just have a feeling that if our country continues to develop, we should be able to achieve this standard of living in the future. Look around here, cooking doesn't require fire; you can use electricity or gas, and the kitchen utensils even have auxiliary functions. And when you compare it to the conditions in our country before, the trains, cars, televisions, and radios now, don't these things resemble the technological level of the future?"

"Yes, they do." Pei Jing nodded. "So, do they have televisions here too?"

Zhi Xia thought for a moment. "Yes, they do."

After all, the things shown on television are not from this world. He doubted that he had been reincarnated and even more so now that he could confirm that he had stumbled upon this place due to some fortuitous opportunity.

As for where this thing came from, it is also possible to speculate that it came from another world.

Pei Jing took a bite of the meat on the plate. It tasted somewhat like chicken, but the texture was even more tender.

There was another plate with meat that was slightly tougher. Every time he ate it, he could feel a warm energy coursing through his body, but it would disappear after a while.

However, over time, he could feel the benefits. Pei Jing clearly felt that his strength and senses had improved significantly compared to a year ago.

Zhi Xia probably hadn't noticed this condition because she found it tiring to chew and preferred to eat the thing she called the Gugu beast. She would only take a piece of the tougher meat to taste its flavor.

Pei Jing hadn't reminded her before because he wasn't sure if his speculation was correct, and Zhi Xia was also cautious. Normally, when there were outsiders present, they would only eat regular food, and they would have the extra meal only when they were alone.

He could also clearly feel that since she revealed the secret about this place, Zhi Xia had become less guarded towards him. She would occasionally reveal something new, and this time, she even brought him directly here.

He didn't know whether he should say to her that she was too naive or be grateful that he wasn't a bad person.

After Pei Jing reminded her, Zhi Xia finally realized that what Huzi had said about the energy in the wild beast's meat and blood was true. She had thought that the energy she mentioned referred to the kind that was converted from food to meet the body's needs.

Pei Jing was afraid that Zhi Xia might accidentally reveal something in front of An ZhiAng. After all, An ZhiAng was impulsive but not stupid, and their relationship was extremely close. He even had an intuition that despite him and Zhi Xia living together and having two children, all these emotions combined could not match An ZhiAng's position in her heart.

The reason for this was unclear. Clearly, An ZhiQing, the eldest brother, had always cared for her, but Zhi Xia seemed closer to An ZhiAng.

Pei Jing felt that this might be because the two of them were twin siblings. Even before they were born, their bond had already been established in the womb, and it was a connection that others couldn't compare to.

After finishing the meal, Zhi Xia turned on the bedroom's television and selected an idol drama, which made Pei Jing furrow his brows in disapproval.

It's apparent that the world depicted in the TV drama is filled with skyscrapers, a rarity in reality. Luxury cars, which are scarce in real life, can be seen everywhere in that world. The living conditions of the people inside, their clothing, clearly demonstrate how high the standard of living is in that world.

Everyone strives for a better life, pursuing the new era, and all of this can be achieved in the future.

However, the plot of the drama is quite nonsensical and awkward, perfectly fitting the term "braindead drama" coined by Zhi Xia.

Pei Jing believed he could endure watching it because he was attracted by the captivating scenes and the visions of the future it presented. In comparison to the black-and-white television at present, the 3D images on this LCD television were truly stunning.

Already tired and knowing they had a long journey ahead, Zhi Xia turned off the television, only wanting to broaden Pei Jing's horizons.

While Zhi Xia had a dreamless night, lying on this incredibly soft bed, Pei Jing couldn't fall asleep.

Little did Zhi Xia know that it was precisely because of Pei Jing's insights that their child's future career path took a different turn.

Moreover, if his own circumstances were not lacking, Pei Jing even considered giving up his military identity and instead striving for a career in technology.

He was an exceptional soldier, but there were many soldiers as outstanding as him. On the other hand, a good research project could save the lives of thousands of soldiers and further strengthen his own country to the point where no one could shake it.

After waking up from a nap, Zhi Xia checked the situation outside and noticed that the sky was already dimly lit.

She quickly woke Pei Jing up, and after freshening up, the couple left the space, accompanied by a vintage bicycle.

Naturally, it wasn't the one they bought when they were in the army, but the one Zhi Xia had obtained through trading. The large-scale farmers had gone to great lengths to find this antique for her.

However, this bicycle didn't have a brand mark, and there were some differences in the details compared to the present time. They could only keep it in the space for occasional emergencies and couldn't openly use it at home.

The cold morning wind was bone-chilling, and Zhi Xia sat on the back seat, tightly embracing Pei Jing's waist. He was wearing a military coat and thick leather gloves on his hands.

When they were close to their destination, the two of them put the bicycle back into the space and took out their child and luggage, continuing to walk forward.

After about ten minutes of walking, they could clearly hear the sounds of military sentries ahead and the shouts of soldiers during training.

Pei Jing was still dressed in his military uniform and went to negotiate with the gate sentry. They waited for some time before they saw a figure walking towards them from a distance.

"Fourth Brother..." Zhi Xia handed their child to Pei Jing and happily walked up to An ZhiAng.

"You came too, little sister?" An ZhiAng's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Zhi Xia.

A couple of days ago, he received a call from Pei Jing saying that they would pass by this area and visit him, but he didn't mention bringing his little sister along.

Moreover, Jin Cheng is quite far from here. How did his little sister, a young girl, manage to come all the way here?

Is it that she was being bullied at home? Wasn't it said that An Meiyun, that wretched girl, is already dead?

An Zhiang's expression shifted from surprise to solemn as he carefully observed Zhi Xia.

Compared to when he last left, his little sister had grown more beautiful. Her face was no longer thin and gaunt, and she didn't appear to have been mistreated.

"Fourth Brother, I missed you so much!" Zhi Xia, her teary eyes misty, embraced An Zhiang tightly before letting go and studying him.

Fourth Brother had grown darker and thinner. He had also grown taller since they last saw each other, with Zhi Xia still only reaching his chin. However, compared to his previous cheerful demeanor, he had clearly matured. His gaze was resolute and sharp.

"Silly girl, Fourth Brother missed you too." An Zhiang reached out and wiped the corners of her eyes with his fingers, his tone unusually gentle. "Don't cry. Once we endure another nine months, you'll be able to come home and visit. Take good care of yourself at home, and when Fourth Brother has a break, he'll come back to see you."

As they were speaking, Pei Jing walked over to their side, holding two children in his arms. Their luggage had to be placed outside the door. "By the way, is there a place for us to stay in the army? If not, we can go to the town."

Because the situation in each place was different, he had already informed An Zhiang before coming. However, since An Zhiang was still in the early stages of his military service, it wasn't certain if they could arrange it for him.

Only now did An Zhiang notice that Pei Jing was also present. He was about to turn and greet him when he saw the two children in his arms, and his eyes widened in astonishment. "Uncle, whose children are you holding?"
