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

”Okay.”

Lu Cheng nodded without a second thought. Even if Shen Nian hadn’t asked, he had already planned to go with her to the school.

’My wife is so lovely,’ he thought. ’I have to let everyone see that she’s taken. I can’t have those annoying flies buzzing around Shen Nian!’

”Mm, since you’ve taken time off, let’s head back early. There’s nothing else for us here, anyway.”

Shen Nian had no intention of staying for the awards ceremony at the end of the gala. It was mainly for the Entertainment Department staff, and she had little interest in associating with them. After all, her reasons for performing were twofold: to strike a blow against Meng Sijia and to surprise Lu Cheng.

But after the two returned home, Shen Nian once again truly felt Lu Cheng’s passion and experienced his real ”reward” for her.

Of course, the result was that Shen Nian didn’t get out of bed the entire next morning. She just wanted to collapse onto the bed and sleep into oblivion.

After the corporate gala, Shen Nian blew up.

The most immediate effect was that wherever she went, people would greet her enthusiastically. Some even ran up to her to ask if she would take on apprentices and teach them magic.

Amid her exasperation, Shen Nian also saw the benefits. Namely, her status in the family compound had skyrocketed since the gala.

Before, some people in the family compound would gossip about her behind her back. But now, she was the compound’s great hero. They couldn’t thank her enough, so who would dare to say a single bad word about Shen Nian!

Even if someone did dare to speak ill of Shen Nian, they would quickly find themselves ganged up on by everyone else.

Are you kidding? Shen Nian had represented the families and defeated the ”star” of the Entertainment Department! How could someone who brought them so much honor not be a good person!

”Xiao Nian, you’re so smart! To think we were worried before. You really got a huge benefit out of this gala performance!”

Seeing Shen Nian so easily establish a firm foothold in the family compound, Lin Jingyun was also very happy for her.

”Sister Jingyun, that’s because Xiao Nian is amazing! She didn’t let Meng Sijia get her way. If it had been someone else, who knows what would have happened!”

”You’re right. That Meng Sijia is a real piece of work, daring to plot against our Xiao Nian like that! But, Xiao Nian, how did you think to prepare two sets of performance costumes?”

”Mm, just in case. What can I say? Her scheming was just too obvious.”

Shen Nian shrugged, speaking with a look of resignation.

”Hmph, she treats everyone else like an idiot! But Xiao Nian, your Lu Cheng is really something else. He really stood up for you!”

”Hm?”

Shen Nian looked at Lin Jingyun curiously. ’Could Lu Cheng have done something already? So fast?’

”Eh? You don’t know yet? Your Lu Cheng actually didn’t tell you?”

”No, he didn’t.”

”Oh, my, your Lu Cheng is really... Let me tell you, he went straight to the head of the Entertainment Department and demanded an explanation for how you were bullied at the gala. Actually, the department head was wronged in all this; she had no idea what was going on. But once she found out, she really cracked down! Meng Sijia’s position as the lead dancer of the Entertainment Department was immediately revoked, and there’s more punishment to come! By pulling these stunts, Meng Sijia completely disgraced the Entertainment Department. Not only did their act lose to one of the family members, but she also resorted to such despicable tricks! She can forget about having any kind of bright future now!”

”Isn’t that just how the Meng Family is? If people like her are allowed to stay, what will they do besides leave a stain on the corporation’s reputation!”

Shen Nian was deeply moved to learn that Lu Cheng had sought justice for her. Watching Lin Jingyun and Zhang Ying get more and more worked up, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of resignation.
