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

Nevertheless, the sentiment within the corporation was still strongly in favor of Meng Sijia and Lu Cheng getting together. After all, no one else in the company seemed like a better match for Lu Cheng than Meng Sijia.

However, the sudden news of Lu Cheng’s marriage shattered their expectations and left them completely stunned.

Especially when they learned that Lu Cheng had married an ordinary woman from his rural hometown, many people secretly called him a fool.

While the Meng Family wasn’t one of the top elite families, they were wealthy, to say the least. More importantly, they were backed by a truly elite family. Becoming the Meng Family’s son-in-law would have guaranteed a meteoric rise.

It was the kind of opportunity they could only dream of, and yet, Lu Cheng had just thrown it away! And for what? A wife from the countryside. In their eyes, what could be more foolish?

But little did they know, Lu Cheng had always been crystal clear about what he wanted. In his eyes, his Shen Nian was a thousand, no, ten thousand times better than some so-called young miss of the Meng Family!

After returning to the staff residence complex, Shen Nian went home and began to prepare lunch. Even though it was just for her and Lu Cheng, she prepared five or six dishes, most of which were meat-heavy.

This was all a special treat for Lu Cheng!

However, Shen Nian had just finished her prep work and hadn’t even started cooking yet when she suddenly heard a knock at the door.

’Could Lu Cheng be back this early?’

With that thought, Shen Nian hurried to open the door. But when she did, she found a complete stranger—a woman—standing outside.

”You are...?”

”You must be Mr. Lu’s wife, right? Uh, there’s someone outside looking for you!”

”Looking for me?”

”That’s right! I was just sent to give you the message. You should hurry downstairs, the person looking for you is waiting!”

With that, the woman turned and left.

Shen Nian frowned. ’Why do I get the feeling that messenger sounded like she was gloating, like she was eager to watch a good show?’

’Is someone trying to stir up trouble again?’

’Or was I just imagining things? Maybe someone really is looking for me.’

’I should go down and take a look. Anyway, this is the staff residence complex, so nothing major can happen. I won’t go far. At most, I’ll just peek downstairs. If no one’s there, I’ll come right back. And if someone really is looking for me, I shouldn’t be rude.’

But when she got downstairs, Shen Nian discovered that there seemed to be a lot more people than she had expected.

’Don’t tell me all these people are waiting for me?’

Shen Nian scanned the area and quickly spotted two people in the very center of the crowd. The others were probably just onlookers. ’Those two, I’ll bet, are the ones who are really here for me.’

Shen Nian gave a wry, internal laugh. ’Looks like I’m quite the celebrity. I’ve only just arrived, and someone’s already shown up at my door to cause trouble. And it’s a woman, no less!’

As for the man standing beside the woman, Shen Nian recognized him too. Wasn’t he the one who’d tried to ask her for directions earlier? Besides, judging by the surprised look on his face, it was obvious he wasn’t the one leading the charge. The real instigator was the woman beside him.

’A woman! Don’t tell me a love rival has already popped out of the woodwork?’

’Of course, I figured a love rival might show up after I moved here. It can’t be helped; Lu Cheng is just that outstanding!’

’Still, this one has shown up awfully early!’
