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

”No one forced me. I agreed to it myself.”

After saying that, Shen Nian even looked at Meng Sijia and smiled.

’Meng Sijia must be convinced I can’t put on a good performance. She’s probably hoping I’ll make a fool of myself on stage!’

’Well, in that case, I’ll put on a show for Meng Sijia to see. And for everyone else, too. I’ll let them all know that Lu Cheng’s wife is not so useless, nor is she a pushover!’

”Really?”

”Of course it’s true. Besides, don’t you want to see me perform on stage?”

Aside from proving to everyone that she wasn’t so useless, Shen Nian really wanted to perform for Lu Cheng more than anything!

”Of course I do.”

Lu Cheng had never seen Shen Nian perform on stage before. He’d been worried she was being set up, but now that he saw she was truly doing this of her own free will, Lu Cheng started to feel a sense of anticipation.

’Shen Nian performing on stage... It’s going to be amazing! I have to support her. Absolutely!’

Of course, at that moment, Lu Cheng could never have imagined that on the day Shen Nian actually took the stage, he would see her shining so brightly that he would wish he could lock her away, keeping her all for himself.

But that was a thought for another time. For now, Lu Cheng was simply filled with anticipation.

”Okay, then it’s a deal. I’m going to perform at the company’s holiday gala!”

”Okay.”

Only after watching Shen Nian nod in agreement did Lu Cheng turn to face Meng Sijia. The smile, of course, was gone from his face.

’He’d promised Shen Nian, after all. His smiles were for her and her alone. He wouldn’t show them to anyone else! Especially not other women! And most especially not annoying women!’

”Alright. If there’s nothing else, you can leave.”

Lu Cheng had only stopped Meng Sijia to confirm whether Shen Nian was acting of her own free will. Since Shen Nian hadn’t been threatened, there was naturally no reason for Meng Sijia to stay.

”You...”

Meng Sijia had been full of hope, thinking Lu Cheng had kept her back because he’d seen some good in her. She never imagined he could be so ruthless!

Of course, Lu Cheng had always been just as ruthless with other women, and back then, Meng Sijia hadn’t seen anything wrong with it.

It was just that now, with Shen Nian as a point of contrast, Lu Cheng’s ruthlessness toward her felt exceptionally cruel.

”Hey, who do you think you are?! Who are you to tell her to stay and then tell her to leave just like that! You need to apologize to my sister!”

Meng Chengyu wasn’t sure if he was stepping up because his sister was being bullied, or because the sight of Lu Cheng and Shen Nian’s intimacy just rubbed him the wrong way, but he stood forward and shouted at Lu Cheng.

Only then did Lu Cheng’s gaze fall upon Meng Chengyu, as if he were just noticing his existence for the first time.

”And who are you?”

”You... I...”

Meng Chengyu pointed at Lu Cheng, then at himself. He was the distinguished young master of the Meng Family. Everywhere he went, he was met with flattery. Even within the company, no one dared to underestimate him, thanks to his connection to the Meng Family and the even more powerful family backing them.

This was likely the first time in his life that Meng Chengyu had ever been treated this way.

”How dare you!”

”And why wouldn’t I dare? What I’d like to know is, have our company’s employees gotten this undisciplined?”

The moment Lu Cheng said this, the color drained from Meng Chengyu’s face.
