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

Chapter 104

Pei Jing felt his vision go white for a moment, his nose itched as if something was about to gush out, making him unconsciously stare blankly ahead.

Knowing summer saw him not coming in, she reached out and grabbed his arm, "Come in, what are you staring blankly for?"

Pei Jing only reacted at this time, following her pulling force into the room.

The water in the basin was still steaming, and the snow-white towel was still in the basin.

Knowing summer asked him, "Do you want to wipe it too?"

"I'll go wipe it outside, are you done?" Pei Jing's voice suddenly became dark, with a touch of hoarseness.

"I...can't reach my back." Knowing summer still stood in front of him, looking up slightly, her wet eyes gleaming with a hint of coquetry.

Pei Jing's Adam's apple moved slightly, the confusion in his eyes grew heavier, "Knowing summer, do you know what you're doing?"

"I know, I just want you to help me wipe my back!" Knowing summer sighed helplessly, "Is this not okay either?"

Pei Jing unnaturally averted his gaze, reminding her, "Don't forget about your body, and I'm a normal man."

Knowing summer suddenly knew what he was awkward about, deliberately laughed and said, "Then what? I'm just out of reach wiping my back now, and in a few more months when my belly gets bigger, I might even have trouble taking care of myself. Are you going to ignore me then too?"

Pei Jing deliberately frowned slightly, resigned, "Turn your back to me."

Seeing him look at the washbasin wanting to go over, Knowing summer opened her arms and threw herself into his arms, hugging his waist, "Okay, okay, I don't have to wipe it, I just want you to get used to my existence, we are married, and you still always avoid me, how can we get along well in the future like this?"

The girl's voice was soft and coaxing, coquettish enough to kill.

Pei Jing looked at her bare shoulders, and her straight legs that would appear before his eyes with just a slight lowering of her head, and didn't even dare to move.

Knowing summer did wear clothes, but the thin nightgown simply could not conceal her body shape, and the top was only two straps hanging on her shoulders, with the tender flesh on her body exposed in full view.

Pei Jing tried his best to stay calm, secretly pinching his palm to make himself sober, bent down to pick up Knowing summer and took a few steps to the bedside, then wrapped her in the quilt.

"Didn't you just say you were cold? Don't catch a cold." Pei Jing said, then added, "Lie on your stomach, I'll wipe your back for you."

What Knowing summer said made sense. When her belly got bigger, it would be normal for her to have trouble moving around. She might need his help in many aspects of life. If he kept being so awkward, it wouldn't do.

Thinking carefully, he, a grown man, was actually less straightforward than a girl, which was rather shameful.

However, what Pei Jing said was also true. As a hot-blooded young man who had just lost his virginity like that once, in the deep of the night, lying next to his lawful wife, whose body exuded a faint fragrance, how could he restrain himself?

Seeing him wring out the towel, Knowing summer hurriedly lay down there, somewhat shyly burying her head in the crook of her arm.

Pei Jing lifted the quilt, then lifted her top, originally wanting to wipe her back quickly and cover her, but when he saw the old scars hidden under her clothes, the tension in his heart dissipated all at once.

Pei Jing's fingers gently rubbed the scars on her back, and the itchy sensation made Knowing summer curl up.

"It must have hurt a lot back then, right?" Pei Jing asked her distressedly.

"What?" Knowing summer didn't understand what he meant.

Pei Jing was afraid she was cold, so he pulled the quilt up to cover her body before saying, "The scars on your back..." He suddenly remembered that he had brought up her sad past again, and quickly changed his words, "Forget it, things of the past are over, there's no need to mention them again. We will be fine from now on." He swore to himself that he would never let her be beaten again.

Knowing summer really didn't know about the scars left on her back. After all, she had only been back for less than two months, and she didn't remember much from her past life 100 years ago after coming back, let alone looking at her own back since then.

There were a few old scars left on her arms, but just a shallow line was nothing serious. She simply didn't know how many crisscrossing scars were on her back that could be seen at a glance how pitifully she had been beaten at the time.

Apart from these, she also had a burn scar on the inside of her thigh. Fortunately, the scar was not big or conspicuous. She had originally wanted to apply ointment to remove it, but considering that she was still pregnant, she did not dare to use the ointment.

Knowing summer reached back to feel her own back, only occasionally feeling a little unevenness.

This was also thanks to the fact that she was not prone to scarring, so the scars left were not very noticeable, just a little heartbreaking to look at.

Pei Jing had been beaten a few days ago and left bruises on his back, but those purple bruises went away in a few days.

Looking at Knowing summer's wounds, it was obvious that she had been beaten bloody at the time, so scars that would not fade were left behind.

Knowing summer suddenly retracted her hand, turned over and hugged herself tightly in the quilt, her voice involuntarily carrying some grievance, "Is it very ugly?"

"Not ugly. Knowing summer is the most beautiful, and it's on your back anyway, so you can't see it." Pei Jing comforted her.

Knowing summer smiled faintly, seemingly tired, and lost the heart to tease him.

"Hurry up and wipe yourself and go to sleep, aren't we still going to town tomorrow?"

"Okay, you sleep first." Pei Jing opened the door with the washbasin in his hands and went out.

When he came back, Knowing summer had already gone into the space to look at herself in the mirror and saw the scars on her back clearly.

He slipped under the quilt, his body still a little cold. Knowing summer turned around and snuggled into his arms, only to find that he was actually wearing autumn clothes and trousers.

Knowing summer was really helpless, why did she feel like he was on guard against her?

...

In an abandoned manor in Jincheng, Gao Dalin and Gao Second Sister gnawed on freshly stewed dog meat.

Gao Dalin angrily threw the bone aside and questioned Gao Second Sister, "I'll ask you, can you be counted on or not? An MeiYun is dead, and An ZhiXia is gone too. What else are we staying here for? We don't even have anything to eat every day. We can't keep stealing people's dogs to eat, right?"

These past few days, he had been ordered around by Gao Second Sister to stalk people, and he was already very unhappy. Adding to that, with nothing to eat or wear and no money in hand, Gao Second Sister still refused to let him go back, making him even more unhappy.

"What's the hurry? With our family's reputation, what future would we have after going back? Still have to watch people's faces, do the most tiring work for the lowest rations?" Gao Second Sister viciously took a bite of meat, a calculating look flashing across her face, "I haven't asked you yet, how's it going with what I told you to do?"

Although Gao Dalin looked fierce, he actually knew himself that he was not as smart as Gao Second Sister. Although this pair of Gao siblings were vicious, selfish and ruthless, at least they knew themselves well, so between the two, the brains was still Gao Second Sister.

Thinking of what Gao Second Sister had told him to do, Gao Dalin said sullenly, "I've been following her, for three days now. I know when she goes out every day, where she goes, and when she comes back."

"Since you're clear about it, it's time for us to take action and close the net." Gao Second Sister said, "As long as this plan succeeds, we siblings will have the capital to gain a foothold in Jincheng. But remember, stay away from the An family in the future. Don't let them find out about you and me, otherwise no matter how good our plans are, they can kick us out of Jincheng with one word."
