After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 368: is threatened, Don’t be shameless.

"Grandpa said it himself, let's pinky swear..."

"Alright, alright, Grandpa, let's pinky swear," Pei Yong replied, his eyes filled with a hint of helplessness and a smile.

"Pinky swear, hanging together, never changing for a hundred years. Whoever breaks the promise will be a little dog..."

As the words fell, a triumphant gleam flashed in PingAn's eyes. Unfortunately, Pei Yong was still immersed in the joy before him and didn't notice.

Chenye's uncle was right after all. If he wanted to stay and live with Grandpa, he couldn't easily accept his mother. He needed Grandpa's assurance.

Grandpa had always been soft-hearted. If his mother acted pitiful in front of him, he might persuade himself to go and live with her.

He didn't want to leave Grandpa, nor did he want to leave his uncles and aunts. He enjoyed playing with them and loved the snacks his grandmother made for him.

Perhaps he was a bit selfish. His mother could abandon him to pursue her own future, so he didn't want to give up his own happiness to accommodate her.

As for his father, he didn't care about him at all, so he was even less in his thoughts. Grandpa had said that as long as he was happy, it was enough.

When Pei Yong led PingAn back to the living room, Guo Momo was sitting there anxiously.

"Mom." The sudden call made her burst into tears instantly.

"PingAn, you called me?" Guo Momo rushed forward, embracing PingAn in her arms.

PingAn obediently reached out his hand and imitated the gesture his grandfather used to comfort him whenever he was sad, gently patting Guo Momo's back with his small palm.

...

When Pei Jianguo came, he was initially happy but left with a belly full of anger.

After riding the bicycle for a long distance, he realized that he hadn't done what he came for.

He stopped in his tracks, thought for a while, and turned back.

When Chenye returned home, he went to find Zhixia. "Mom, PingAn's mom is back. Uncle asked me to bring the younger brothers back first."

"Hmm, how is PingAn?" She had watched him grow up under her own eyes, so Zhixia couldn't help but feel affectionate towards the child.

"PingAn is fine, but he feels a bit distant from his mom," Chenye said.

"Alright, I understand. When you're playing together, pay more attention to PingAn's emotions. He's still young, and you're his uncle, so you should take care of him more. Got it?" After all, it was normal for the child to feel distant from her after she had been away for so many years. That's what Zhixia thought.

"I understand."

Just as they were talking, Pei Jianguo came in. "Sister-in-law, can we talk?"

"Sure, come in and have a seat." Guo Momo had just returned, and Pei Jianguo rarely visited apart from festive occasions and when Pei Jing came back. His visit at this time made her somewhat suspicious of his intentions.

But it was clear that Zhixia was overthinking things.

"I came here today because I have a little favor to ask of you, sister-in-law," Pei Jianguo said straightforwardly.

Zhixia nodded, contemplating, "What is it?"

"It's like this, I have a friend who also got swindled and ended up with a batch of fan controllers. She's now stuck with all the money invested in them and can't liquidate the stock. I thought maybe Xiaoshen Electrical Factory, which manufactures fans, could help her by taking this batch of controllers. We can negotiate the price; she's not looking to make a profit, just hoping to break even. Actually... losing some money wouldn't be a big deal."

As Pei JianGuo spoke these words, he felt quite anxious. In the past, regardless of the situation, there were no vested interests between them, at most just a few unpleasant exchanges.

Thinking back to a few years ago, he pointed fingers at An ZhiXia, accusing her of meddling in other people's affairs. Although it had been a long time since then, he still remembered those words in his heart. He never expected that he would now have to come to her for help.

ZhiXia lifted her cup and took a sip of water, using it to conceal her anger.

Damn it, asking her for this favor was worse than having a connection with Guo Momo. At least that wouldn't feel so repulsive.

Truly, there's no comparison without feeling hurt.

"I can't help with this favor," ZhiXia said frankly, looking directly at Pei JianGuo. "I believe you should know why I can't help."

Pei JianGuo was able to mix with Gao Second Sister and the others because she allowed him to enter. How could he have the audacity to ask her for such a favor? Has he lost his mind?

Pei JianGuo's face had already begun to turn ugly. "Xiaoshen, what happened in the past is in the past. Besides, blaming Qingcheng's parents' mistakes on her and her sister, don't you think you're being petty? And they're not much younger than you!"

Before Pei JianGuo finished speaking, the cup in ZhiXia's hand was already thrown at him.

This time, he didn't seem too angry. Instead, he stood up and calmly straightened his wet clothes.

"Xiaoshen, if you're really bothered by this, you can take it out on me. But regarding Qingcheng's situation, I still hope you can help her, even if it's just because of me," Pei JianGuo said, feeling that he had to compromise. "I know that all the components of the products in your factory are self-produced. If you really don't want to take that batch of controllers, can you sell her a batch of components? I won't let her pay any less than your asking price."

"You have no face with me," ZhiXia couldn't help but ask him, where does he get such thick skin? "Pei JianGuo, if you choose to be with Gao Second Sister, then get out of here. Don't come to my house anymore, my house doesn't welcome you."

No matter how many conflicts there had been in the past, ZhiXia had never said anything about not letting him enter her home.

Because this house was left by Old Pei, and Old Pei's tablet was still here. Even if she went too far, she couldn't prevent the descendants from coming to pay their respects.

But this time, she had truly crossed her bottom line.

"I'm currently working at the Construction Bureau," Pei JianGuo pursed his lips, realizing how unreasonable his request was, so he surprisingly remained calm.

But at the same time, he knew that helping Gao Second Sister, even at the cost of threatening ZhiXia, was his choice.

"If you simply want to tell me where you work as an elder, then I congratulate you on your promotion and sincerely wish you further success in your career. However, if you intend to use your position to threaten me, let me make it clear, Pei JianGuo. Even if you were the mayor of Jincheng City, I would not fawn over you, and your threats hold no power over me." Zhi Xia sneered. "Now, the land beneath your feet belongs to me. Please leave."

"I know you're angry right now, so please think carefully about my words," Pei JianGuo said before leaving.

Zhi Xia let out a sigh and sat on the luxurious chair in the living room.

The rosewood chair was exquisite, but a bit too hard.

Little Sixth quietly retreated from under the window and suddenly pushed open the door to his eldest brother's room.

"Big brother, I heard... Mom looks really angry. Eldest cousin went too far. We... let's call Dad to come and teach him a lesson!" He clenched his small fists and spoke in a stern tone.

Chenye, who was already thirteen years old, was currently going through puberty. He had grown taller and slender, and his whole demeanor exuded a coldness, likely due to his reluctance to speak during this phase of voice changing.

He reached out and ruffled Little Sixth's hair, making it stand on end, then silently walked out of the room.
