After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies Chapter 132: A New Understanding of the World

Witnessing Wu Lei's increasingly absurd remarks, Pei Jing gestured to him, "Comrade Wu, my wife is pregnant."

How could he have initially targeted the formula, but now it seed like he was tempting Zhi Xia to co to the city?

Pei Jing didn't want to restrict Zhi Xia's freedom. Even if the issue of taking care of the child could be resolved, he couldn't bear to let Zhi Xia work alone in the city.

Wu Lei also realized the situation at this mont. After considering his argunts for several months, it seed impractical in the face of Zhi Xia's pregnant belly.

"Sorry, sorry, I got too carried away and neglected the fact that you're pregnant, sister." Wu Lei wiped his sweat. He had the idea of bringing Zhi Xia to the factory, but now it seed unrealistic. He could only temporarily focus on the mung bean cake.

Helplessly, Zhi Xia smiled and said, "Brother Wu, actually, you don't need to say so much. I initially said I wouldn't sell the formula because I didn't see the need. In reality, keeping it for myself serves no purpose either. If it can be useful to you, it's fine to sell it to you."

"In that case, does it an you've agreed?" Although he didn't manage to recruit her, Wu Lei was still quite happy to obtain the formula.

At least he could make a coback and not appear to be soone who just freeloaded as the head of the research and developnt departnt.

Zhi Xia nodded. In the end, they reached a deal for 300 yuan. Zhi Xia also suggested that he could replace the mung bean filling with other options like red bean or chestnut, creating a new product.

Wu Lei felt like he had found a treasure. This ti, Pei Jing paid for the al himself, making Wu Lei, who had originally intended to treat them, feel a bit embarrassed. So, when he heard that Pei Jing and Zhi Xia were looking for a temporary place to stay, he imdiately thought of his vacant small courtyard.

Wu Lei had two houses side by side, originally occupied by his parents. But his parents had passed away a few years ago, so the houses had been vacant. After Pei Jing and Zhi Xia went to see it, they imdiately decided to move in.

No matter what, Wu Lei refused to accept rent, but Pei Jing insisted on giving it to his wife.

Although there was the favor of the mung bean cake beforehand, Pei Jing didn't want to take advantage of the situation. After all, it's impolite to bite the hand that feeds you. Only by paying rent could they consider this place their own territory. Otherwise, it would be considered temporary lodging, and if any disputes arose later, they would be on the losing side.

Moreover, judging by the appearance of Wu Lei's wife, she didn't seem like an easy person to get along with. Otherwise, as soon as she heard that he didn't want rent, her expression imdiately changed. She only recovered her smile after receiving the money from Pei Jing.

Renting the small courtyard for five yuan a month was quite expensive.

When the couple left, Pei Jing said, "I'll go back later to get so things and bring ng ng over to accompany you, Zhi Xia. Wu Lei seems like a good person, but his wife seems the type who only cares about personal gain. If you have any disputes, just bear with it temporarily. I'll handle everything when I co over, okay?"

"Don't worry, I'm not a child," Zhi Xia replied.

"Oh, and you should inform your family about being pregnant with twins," Pei Jing added. As for whether anyone would co over later, they didn't consider that problem.

Zhi Xia nodded and let him go quickly.

She closed the door and went into her space to rest alone.

The whole ordeal had exhausted her physically and ntally.

Things were relatively calm on their side, but the situation next door was not as peaceful.

When Wu Lei left Zhi Xia's place, he still had a cheerful smile on his face. However, the mont he entered his own yard, his expression changed instantly.

"When I was discussing with you just now, I specifically asked you to be polite and not to show a sour face, Zhang Lin. You are in your forties, can't you understand anything? Don't you know that we are the ones asking for their help now, not the other way around? Did I owe you money or sothing?" Wu Lei thought about maintaining a good relationship with Zhi Xia. Since she could co up with a mung bean cake, maybe she had so other interesting things as well.

He had always been aware that the woman he married, Zhang Lin, had nothing to offer except her good looks. Occasionally, she would even beco a burden.

Most n are like this. When they are in love, flaws are seen as strengths. But once the novelty wears off, the very sa flaws that were tolerable beco magnified, leading to increased disgust.

Wu Lei and Zhang Lin's marriage perfectly reflected this point.

Wu Lei had a temper, and Zhang Lin's temper was even worse. She imdiately retorted, "What do you an by 'we're asking for their help'? Did you buy their mung bean cake and not pay for it or sothing? Since it's a win-win situation, why talk about asking or not asking? Wu Lei, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You just want to take care of her more because she's beautiful. Let warn you, I, Zhang Lin, am not soone easy to bully. If you dare to have those wandering thoughts outside, I'll fight with you until the end. Don't expect to have it good."

Zhang Lin was also unhappy. She had noticed the changes in Wu Lei over the years. He used to be like this when he was pursuing her, so why was he starting to find fault now?

Zhang Lin knew she was beautiful. Even when she was just a girl, she had a bigger temper than this. Wu Lei was able to tolerate her and always appease her precisely because he was attracted to her appearance.

Now that he had her, he didn't know how to appreciate it, and on top of that, he criticized her for being old and unattractive.

He didn't even consider his own appearance. Although Wu Lei was tall, he wasn't good-looking at all. Small eyes, a flat nose, and a chubby face made his chin wide and his forehead narrow. Fortunately, he always had a smile on his face when eting people, which gave off a friendly vibe.

Zhang Lin had been able to choose Wu Lei back then because he didn't look good but had good prospects and a stable job. He was also ambitious, and she was after his money.

Otherwise, there were plenty of others pursuing her, so even more polished and refined. She must have been blind to choose such a person.

But fate was truly blind. Those who were good-looking were often dirt poor. Forget about money; they didn't even have a house after getting married. It was not uncommon for two generations to squeeze into one room.

On the other hand, soone like Wu Lei, a toad, was the only child in his family and owned two houses, including his parents' and his own. Otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen him.

The couple had a few argunts, neither willing to give in, and they parted ways while their son was suffering from a stomach ache after taking dicine.

Perhaps this is the advantage of marrying a beautiful wife, and it is currently the only thing Wu Lei is satisfied with regarding Zhang Lin. He is not good-looking himself, but their son takes after his mother. At such a young age, he is already a handso kid, which can be considered as an improvent in the appearance genes of their Wu family.

Zhi Xia woke up from a nap, and her stomach, which hadn't eaten much for lunch, was growling with hunger.

She had a al in her personal space and ate a snow crystal fruit.

This fruit ca from the ancient orc dinsion, with a snow-white and translucent color and a refreshing taste. It is considered a rare treasure even in the orc dinsion.

According to Hu Niu, this fruit is most suitable for won to consu as it can remove impurities from the body and improve the skin.

Indeed, after eating this fruit, Zhi Xia felt like she had grown taller. From her original height of only 1.58 ters, she was now 1.63 ters.

Zhi Xia directly asked for a tree from Hu Niu and planted it in her personal space. It has already borne fruit, and the fruit pits she planted around have sprouted and grown into seedlings.

She also cleared a mountaintop in her space deliberately for planting fruit trees from the orc dinsion.

In Zhi Xia's eyes, the ancient orc dinsion was more like a giant dinsion because everything there was enormous. The trees were so tall that they seed to touch the sky.

Apples the size of heads, strawberries the size of fists, pumpkins the size of buckets, and waterlons bigger than winter lons—it completely refreshed her understanding of the world.
