After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 423: All the money is not available for the time being
Chapter 423
Seeing the cheerful daughter, Zhi Xia and Pei Jing were also completely relieved.
Taking advantage of Wanqing's absence, Zhi Xia and Pei Jing discussed, "I want to buy Wanqing a house, just nearby, close to the school too, what do you think?"
"Haven't you already decided?" Pei Jing was still puzzled, she had been out for a walk these past few days for no reason, so this was her idea, "Have you seen one you like?"
Although it would be safer for her to live in the school dormitory, it would still be better for a girl to have her own independent space, even if only to stay over occasionally.
Moreover, they still had the secret space, it was always inconvenient in the dormitory, with an independent house, they could reunite in the space, and Zhi Xia could also bring her favorite foods.
Although she couldn't take it out, she could enjoy it in the space.
Most importantly, it wasn't like the family didn't have the means, earning money was for a good life after all, so why insist on making the child suffer?
"I've looked at a community, very close to their school, most importantly the management is strict, with good security assurances. Let's go take a look together, if there are no issues then hurry up and finalize it, didn't you say you only had a week? We have to book plane tickets to go back the day after tomorrow."
"Alright, you're the empress of our family, you make the decisions." Pei Jing said.
The two made time to take a look, the house was quite nice, over 100 square meters, two bedrooms, fully furnished, with furniture and appliances, it just so happened to suit their lack of time.
Of course, the price was also expensive.
Fortunately she had this idea when she came, so she exchanged a large amount of USD, lest she have the idea now but not have the money on hand.
Decisively paying the money to complete the transaction, Zhi Xia and Pei Jing cleaned the house inside and out, making sure it was spotless for their daughter to move in directly with her bags.
By the time they returned to the hotel, Zhi Xia just collapsed on the bed not wanting to move.
It had been a long time since she had done so much housework, suddenly doing it all at once, she felt her physical fitness was really lacking.
It wasn't that something was wrong, just purely a lack of exercise.
Pei Jing was even mocking her, "I told you long ago to exercise more but you were just being lazy, see, just doing this little bit of work has you exhausted like this?"
Although he spoke like this, he still thoughtfully massaged her waist.
Zhi Xia didn't want to admit his words, and sophistically argued, "This is clearly because I'm older now, my body's constitution isn't as good as before, don't you feel bad for me and instead blame me?"
"Don't deliberately distort my words." Pei Jing deliberately slapped her butt.
Zhi Xia simply kept quiet, peacefully enjoying his service.
Let him say whatever he wants, she would pretend not to hear.
Life was already tiring enough, she didn't want to make things difficult for herself, she just didn't like exercising, what could be done about it?
When he was home before he could still make her move a little, but once he left she would go back to her old ways. A wife and child were different than servants who could be scolded and beaten. In the end he had simply given up.
When Wanqing returned, Zhi Xia was already asleep, only waking up when she heard voices in the room.
She was still a little groggy, and saw Wanqing pounce over, "Mom, hurry up and get up, let's go eat dinner, you slept until now to wake up, are you still going to sleep tonight?"
"Then I won't sleep! Me and your dad don't have to go to school either, we don't have to get up early tomorrow." Zhi Xia asked her, "Does my darling have anything in mind she wants to eat? Dad and mom will keep you company a bit more, tomorrow we have to go back, from then on you'll be staying here alone, you have to take care of yourself, okay?"
"Mm, I know." Wanqing nodded heavily, "Let's go to that Western restaurant down the street, I heard that restaurant's caviar is pretty good, let's go try what foreign caviar actually tastes like?"
Zhi Xia had the ocean in her space, they never lacked for anything to eat, but for some things, it was just novelty in eating them.
The restaurant was bustling with business, seats filled with customers, the three of them ordered several dishes, all signature dishes of the restaurant.
But maybe due to different dietary habits, Zhi Xia always felt the flavors were a bit strange, not as delicious as Chinese food, so after a few bites she put her utensils down.
Even when they left, Wanqing was still complaining, "It feels a lot more open here compared to our country, just the food isn't good. Mom, next time you have time leave meals for me in the space, otherwise leave the ingredients and I can make it myself when I have time, I reckon if I have to eat Western food everyday I'll be nothing but skin and bones by the time I go back."
"Exaggerating." Zhi Xia laughed helplessly, saying to Pei Jing, "Luckily we prepared extra, otherwise this girl would have suffered."
"What is it?" Wanqing still didn't know.
"Your dad and I bought you a house today, spent half the day cleaning it up, and it's still early now, so we'll take you to get familiar with the area. In the future if you don't want to live in the dorms you can stay there."
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, as the farewell drew nearer, this feeling grew stronger in her heart.
After showing Wanqing the house, the girl was overjoyed.
But she hadn't told her dorm mates she wouldn't be returning tonight, they had gotten along well these past few days, Wanqing didn't want them to worry, so she still decided to go back and stay at school.
The three strolled slowly all the way until sending her to the school gates, Zhi Xia gave Wanqing a list of contacts, all international students the company had sponsored over the years, for her to ask for help if she encountered any difficulties.
After all, the others had come earlier, and were a bit more familiar with the place compared to her.
Zhi Xia and Pei Jing walked hand in hand on the streets, neither speaking, but the tranquil, warm atmosphere made both their hearts feel warm.
Since their flight was at noon, Wanqing couldn't see them off, but she had come early in the morning, and didn't reluctantly leave until she really had to hurry to class.
Jincheng didn't have an airport yet, they could only transfer to the nearest city with an airport, then take the train back to Jincheng.
Pei Jing was in a great hurry, leaving as soon as they got home.
Zhi Xia was surrounded by the triplets and Little Sixth, curiously asking her what it was like abroad.
She didn't feel there was anything particularly special, just livelier than domestic, the houses also looked more high-end.
With Little Sixth there, Zhi Xia could only describe to them what she saw and heard while abroad, and remind them in the end to study well, and serve the country with what they learned, developing their homeland to prosperity.
Pei Yong's face was filled with weariness, visibly much older than before, his hair had all turned white too. He guiltily asked Zhi Xia, "Wanqing is settled abroad? How is she doing over there?"
"She's all settled, we stayed there with her for several days, she adapted pretty well herself." Although she knew this matter had nothing to do with Pei Yong, the wrongdoer was Pei Shuangshuang, Zhi Xia and Jiang Su still inevitably held some resentment towards him as well.
After all, money was secondary, it was most disgusting that both their families' children had been implicated.
"That's good, I'm relieved to hear it." Pei Yong also didn't know what else to say, taking an envelope from his pocket and handing it to Zhi Xia, "For the mistakes Shuangshuang committed, I also can't have you pay that money for the painting, but I really can't take out 10,000 right now, here's 6,000, I'll give you the remaining 4,000 when I have it."
