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

The reason Shen Nian asked this was because her earlier speculation led her to a sudden thought: perhaps Chu Lingxiu was simply being used.

And as for the person using Chu Lingxiu, their motive was likely still a mystery.

However, Chu Lingxiu completely failed to grasp Shen Nian’s good intentions. In fact, after hearing what Shen Nian said, her face quickly filled with anger.

”What benefits? Why would she give me any benefits! Shen Nian, don’t you dare slander my friend! Don’t try to ruin our friendship!”

...

Shen Nian looked at Chu Lingxiu helplessly. ’I’ve barely said a thing, and she’s already this dramatic!’

”I’m not interested in your friendship, and I’m even less interested in your friend. But whether it’s you or your so-called friend, if either of you tries to ruin my relationship with Lu Cheng, I won’t let you get off easy!”

With that said, Shen Nian turned to leave.

Behind her, Chu Lingxiu felt a pang of fear after hearing Shen Nian’s words. She was worried Shen Nian would go tell on her.

After all, the last time she’d said something like that, her grandfather had forced her to apologize to Shen Nian in front of everyone. If Shen Nian went and told on her, there was no telling what her grandfather would make her do this time!

’No, I can’t let Shen Nian get away and tell on me that easily. No way!’

With that thought, Chu Lingxiu suddenly sprinted forward, caught up to Shen Nian, and gave her a powerful shove from behind.

Shen Nian had felt Chu Lingxiu running up behind her, but she hadn’t expected to be pushed so directly. Her reaction was a split-second too slow; she lost her footing and fell.

However, as she fell, Shen Nian managed to use a few subtle movements to break her fall. By the time she actually hit the ground, there was barely any force to it, and she wasn’t hurt at all.

But Chu Lingxiu didn’t know that. She only knew she had pushed Shen Nian with great force, and that a fall like that was bound to be serious.

She had acted completely on impulse, without thinking. Once Shen Nian was on the ground, fear began to set in for Chu Lingxiu.

’What do I do, what do I do? I’m definitely going to get yelled at! And Lu Cheng... he’s so protective of Shen Nian, he’ll definitely blame me. Lu Cheng might even come looking for her any second... No, I can’t let them see me!’

And with that thought, Chu Lingxiu abruptly turned and fled.

...

Shen Nian watched Chu Lingxiu run off. She was clearly the victim here, yet Chu Lingxiu was acting as if she were the one who’d been wronged.

She had been about to say something, but Chu Lingxiu ran off too fast.

’Oh well, let her run. I’m not hurt, anyway. Besides, it’s not as if she can just run off and never go home!’

With that thought, Shen Nian decided to dust herself off and get up. Even though she wasn’t hurt, sitting on the ground wasn’t ideal.

But before Shen Nian could get up, she suddenly heard a childish voice call out from behind her. Instead of getting up right away, she turned her head and saw a small, familiar figure running toward her on two short legs.

”Big Sis!”

Watching the little one get closer and closer, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on Shen Nian’s face.

”Fanfan, is that you?”

’I can’t believe I’m running into Fanfan here, the same one I met at the supermarket! What a surprise!’

Just moments ago, Shen Nian had been feeling resentful toward Chu Lingxiu, but now, that resentment suddenly vanished.

After all, if it weren’t for Chu Lingxiu, she might not have run into the adorable Fanfan!
