Reborn in the 90s with a Space: Winning Back My Husband

”What... What is it?”

Lu Cheng gazed at Shen Nian’s gentle, radiant smile, feeling his heart tremble.

”You know, you haven’t asked me why I came to find you!”

Lu Cheng had only wondered about it in his heart before, and besides, his line of questioning was clearly on the wrong track. Outwardly, he had only expressed his surprise at Shen Nian’s sudden arrival, but as for the real reason she had come to find him, he truly didn’t seem to know.

Of course, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to ask; he had just gotten sidetracked by other things before.

”Then... why did you?”

’Is the answer to this question what Shen Nian just mentioned—something that would make me even happier? What kind of answer could possibly make me happier than what she just told me?’

”Because...”

Shen Nian paused, watching Lu Cheng until his expression grew anxious, only then did she speak again.

”Because I missed you, so I wanted to see you as soon as possible!”

Shen Nian said with a smile, watching Lu Cheng without so much as a blink, waiting to see his reaction.

Shen Nian’s words echoed endlessly in Lu Cheng’s mind. For the first time, he felt what it was like to be on cloud nine.

Shen Nian watched as Lu Cheng froze in place after she spoke. Then, his body actually began to tremble slightly.

And then, Shen Nian was pulled into a warm embrace, held tight.

”Xiao Nian, I... I’m not dreaming, am I?”

’He’d just heard Shen Nian say she missed him! He had fantasized about this moment countless times, but now that it was actually happening, Lu Cheng found it hard to believe. He was afraid that this was all just an illusion!’

This wasn’t the first time Lu Cheng had hugged her; Shen Nian was gradually becoming familiar with his embrace. Moreover, she found she really liked the warm, fresh scent that clung to him.

In Lu Cheng’s arms, Shen Nian felt exceptionally safe, as if no matter what storms life threw at her, he would be there to shield her from all harm.

”If you want to know if you’re dreaming, why don’t you just pinch me and find out?”

Shen Nian said playfully, resting her head on Lu Cheng’s shoulder.

”Pinch you? How could I bear to do that!”

Lu Cheng held Shen Nian in his arms even tighter, and then, he gave his own thigh a vicious pinch.

’Pain! It really hurt! He wasn’t dreaming. This was all real!’

Shen Nian had watched Lu Cheng pinch his own thigh hard. Just seeing it made her wince in pain. ’This man... how can he be so silly!’

”Are you silly? Why did you pinch so hard? Does it hurt?”

As she spoke, Shen Nian tried to struggle out of Lu Cheng’s arms to check if he had hurt himself where he’d pinched.

But Lu Cheng wouldn’t let her go. Instead, he just held her tighter.

”It doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t hurt at all!”

Shen Nian knew he was just saying that so she wouldn’t worry. How could a pinch that hard not hurt?

”It doesn’t hurt at all? Does that mean you’re actually dreaming right now, and none of this is real?”

An idea popped into Shen Nian’s head, and she started teasing Lu Cheng again.

”Xiao Nian, if this really is a dream, then I hope I never wake up!”
