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

A while ago, Lu Cheng’s words might have shocked everyone at the table. But by now, rumors about how much he doted on his wife had already spread throughout the entire company.

So, although they were surprised to hear him say that, they could understand why.

There had even been rumors that Lu Cheng and Shen Nian’s marriage was on the rocks. Heh, they should see them now. Could anyone say this young couple, who were showing off their affection every second, weren’t getting along?!

After hearing Lu Cheng’s words, the group leader from group two, who had just spoken, pointed at him with a look of mock indignation.

”Lu Cheng, cut me some slack! You think you’re so great just because you have a wife? I’ll go get married tomorrow, and then I’ll come flaunt my love right back in your faces! We haven’t even started eating yet, and I’m already stuffed from all your public displays of affection!”

”Hey, forget about him, he’s a bachelor. But I’m a married man, and even I’m getting an eyeful! If I’d known it would be like this, I wouldn’t have let my wife visit her parents right now. Leaving me all alone here... it’s just too much to handle!”

”...”

Shen Nian looked at the men before her. They were all group leaders, yet they were acting like a bunch of goofballs. She found it more and more amusing.

Turning to look at Lu Cheng, Shen Nian suddenly had a thought. ’Lu Cheng has been with the company for so many years. Before I was in the picture, did his married colleagues ever tease him with their own public displays of affection at gatherings like this?’

”Never.”

”Huh?”

Shen Nian looked at Lu Cheng. ’What does he mean, ”Never”?’ she wondered. ’Was what I was thinking that obvious on my face?’

”Before you, they couldn’t get a rise out of me. And now that I have you, they have even less of a chance.”

One might not have understood Lu Cheng’s words at first, but Shen Nian grasped his meaning almost instantly.

’Before he had her, Lu Cheng wasn’t interested in marriage, so of course he was immune to their teasing. And now that he had her, he believed he already had the very best, so other people’s displays of affection couldn’t possibly affect him. If anything, he was the one always getting a rise out of everyone else.’

”Whoa, whoa, whoa, we can all see you! Whispering secrets right in front of us and rubbing it in our faces isn’t cool! You two are the hosts, so you have to drink up tonight! We’ll let Lu Cheng’s wife off the hook, though. Lu Cheng can drink for you. How about it? No objections, right?”

”No objections.”

Lu Cheng would never object to drinking on his wife’s behalf.

”Alright! That’s the spirit!”

”Everyone, please don’t hold back. There’s plenty of food and drinks to go around. If we run out, I’ll just make more.”

Seeing how happy everyone was, Shen Nian naturally wanted to make sure they all had a wonderful time.

”Alright! For those words from Lu Cheng’s wife alone, come on, let’s all have a toast!”

”Cheers!”

The party was lively. By the time they were halfway through the food and drinks, Shen Nian had quietly listened to quite a few anecdotes from the company. Because of her relationship with Lu Cheng, everyone specifically chose stories that involved him.

Anything related to Lu Cheng was exactly what Shen Nian was interested in. Since she wasn’t drinking, she just sat beside him, occasionally placing food on his plate while listening intently, not wanting to miss a single detail.

Zhong Mingshan and Zhang Ying, sitting opposite Shen Nian and Lu Cheng, suddenly stood up.

”Lu Cheng, Shen Nian... I still haven’t formally thanked you for what happened with my Yingzi last time. I’d like to take this opportunity today to officially express my gratitude. Shen Nian, you are our family’s benefactor. I’ll down this glass first!”

After speaking, Zhong Mingshan downed his drink in one go. Beside him, Zhang Ying followed suit with a sip of her juice.

Shen Nian and Lu Cheng quickly stood up as well. Shen Nian thought the matter was already in the past; she hadn’t expected Zhong Mingshan and Zhang Ying to still remember it.
