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

Chapter 218

Going north to the end of the street and turning around two corners, this used to be the most prosperous area in Jincheng, where local famous officials, nobles and country squires lived.

An's old house was located here.

But in recent years, a big fire swept through several mansions here, and this area gradually declined, leaving only a few abandoned yards neglected.

It was a good place to hide, though.

Pei Jing ran all the way at the fastest speed.

Just ahead were the ruins of dilapidated walls and broken walls, and the sign on the map was among these ruins.

He didn't stop, but kept running inside. He suddenly bumped into someone around the corner of the broken wall.

The not-so-big collision didn't cause him any impact. On the contrary, the other party fell to the ground.

Pei Jing looked down. The person on the ground was wrapped up very tightly, with hair tucked tightly under a headscarf, showing only a pair of eyes from head to toe.

But the other person had their head down and Pei Jing didn't see their face.

The other party's reaction was slightly panicky. They got up from the ground slowly, as if they were injured by the collision. After getting up, they still didn't raise their head, bending over as if in pain, just wanting to get around him and leave.

Pei Jing's eyes caught the dark blood stains on the ground. His pupils shrank as he reached out to grab the other person's arm, "Comrade, you're hurt!"

At that moment, the person reached out to scratch Pei Jing's eyes, but he dodged by tilting his head and subdued the person forcefully.

"You are also an accomplice in Wang Caixiang's baby swap, aren't you?" Pei Jing's eyes were fierce as he asked coldly, "You don't have to deny it. If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have been able to find this place. Let me advise you to tell the truth yourself, don't try anything with me."

Pei Jing could clearly feel the other person's body stiffen, with a muffled moan from their throat, as if in great pain.

He pulled off the other person's headscarf and face scarf, and a familiar face came into view, which surprised him the most.

It was Shen Hongmei who unexpectedly appeared here.

She was much thinner than her former plump figure. Her cheekbones protruded on her pale face. Cold sweat kept dripping down her body as she curled up in pain.

"Pei Jing, yes, I swapped your baby to save you. You still don't know that your wife is a monster and her child is too..." Shen Hongmei seemed to be in more pain. She wanted to speak but was stuck with words as her face twisted in pain, unable to continue.

She knew An ZhiXia was capable. Otherwise she couldn't have taken away the system that controlled her and harmed her step by step to this point.

By now, Shen Hongmei had long forgotten that she was the one who was eager for the system to disappear at first because she didn't want to be controlled anymore.

It was just that later she couldn't bear the great pain of losing the system after enjoying the gains without labor for so long. She didn't want to make efforts by herself either, which soon led to her current situation.

Waves of stabbing pain kept coming from her belly and massive bleeding down there. But she was reluctant to die. The only one who could save her was Pei Jing who still had her hands twisted behind her back.

She arduously turned her head to ask him for help. "I don't want to die. Save me, please... The child is not with me either. He disappeared, disappeared suddenly. He is not human at all. He is a monster..."

It would be impossible for normal humans to have the ability to disappear out of thin air.

Shen Hongmei couldn't forget the tremendous fright when the little cub was handed to her by Wang Caixiang and kept crying. Not daring to let others hear, she had to hide in this uninhabited place and put him aside to let him cry since no one could hear him here.

The little cub, probably very hungry, kept turning his head looking for food. When he couldn't find food, he cried loudly again.

Thinking of how An ZhiXia had harmed her like this, watching this scene, Shen Hongmei felt happy in her heart. She even kept putting her finger to his mouth to seduce him, and when he opened his mouth, she removed her finger again.

All of a sudden, right in front of her eyes, the child disappeared. She watched in astonishment as he disappeared.

Shen Hongmei was scared to death at that time. She sat on the ground for a long time, unable to move. After recovering a little later, she searched around over and over again.

She thought that perhaps she was not in good spirits these days and hallucinated, so she saw it wrong. The child must have been hidden by her and was still somewhere around here instead of leaving.

It had taken her so much effort to secretly exchange the child. How could he disappear suddenly?

But however hard she looked around, she couldn't find him. She just wanted to get away quickly in case she got caught, which would be bad.

Shen Hongmei was also unlucky that she happened to run into Pei Jing who came just two minutes later to catch her. Otherwise, she might have gotten away even two minutes earlier.

Pei Jing believed that the child did disappear suddenly, after all the child was in An ZhiXia's space now.

But Shen Hongmei also knew about this incident, which made Pei Jing feel somewhat awkward.

As a soldier, he had his own moral ethics and it was impossible for him to privately resolve or harm other people's lives by illegal means.

But Shen Hongmei knew a bit too much. If he sent her to the police station, she might talk nonsense.

However, reality didn't give him much time to consider. Shen Hongmei's body convulsed once. A large amount of blood gushed from her lower body, soaking her pants and dripping onto the ground, which was shocking...

Life seemed to be slipping away. A flash of white light flashed before Shen Hongmei's eyes. She even had hallucinations, but she felt so reluctant. "Pei Jing, why is this fair? I liked you first, but you married An ZhiXia instead. She deceived me. She took away what belonged to me and was unwilling to return it, which led me to my current situation. Pei Jing, don't you think how reluctant I feel? If only I could have married you. You are a lucky man. No matter who marries you, they are destined to have a good life. But I don't have that kind of luck. All I want now is just one child of yours. I would raise him well. He would also become a lucky person, and I would be the mother of a lucky person. Don't you think so?"

She selfishly believed that the child of a lucky person couldn't be too bad. As long as she raised him, he would recognize her as his mother. The good days to come would just be a matter of time.

Shen Hongmei's purpose was that simple. From beginning to end, all she wanted was a good life.

She once had this opportunity, but she was too greedy. She wanted gains without labor and didn't want to hurt those around her. So she chose to hurt herself instead.

But now she regretted it. She should have been more selfish. No matter how well others lived, it was ultimately irrelevant to her. But because she lost the system, she pushed herself step by step towards hell.

Selfish people may occasionally give off some kindness when they have everything, but they absolutely don't want that one act of kindness to threaten their own interests.

Shen Hongmei felt she was stupid. She regretted it, but An ZhiXia didn't give her the right to regret.

This was the first time Pei Jing had heard of the term "lucky person", but he could understand its meaning.

...

In the hospital, Shen Hongmei was sent for emergency treatment. She had suffered massive bleeding due to early labor and exhaustion. Her life was in critical condition and it was uncertain whether she could be saved.
