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

Last year, Ruan Hongbo was just another freshman, so he didn’t have this kind of freedom. This year was different. He was an upperclassman now, able to watch the new first-years walk through the school gates. How could he possibly miss such a golden opportunity!

And sure enough, the orientation event hadn’t been going on for long when he spotted a pair of absolute knockouts. His heart was already starting to flutter uncontrollably.

However, when the first-year girl in front of him looked at him, first nodding and then shaking her head, Ruan Hongbo was a little baffled.

’What’s that supposed to mean? First a nod, then she shakes her head. Is she a new student or not?’

”I’m a new student. He’s here to see me to registration.”

Noticing the conflicted look on his face, Shen Nian explained with a smile.

”Oh, oh! Hi there! I’m Ruan Hongbo, a sophomore in charge of the orientation activities. I’ll take you to get registered!”

’So she *is* a new student. That’s great! And she’s not just gorgeous—her voice is amazing, too! This is practically a godsend for someone like me with a weakness for pretty faces and pleasant voices!’

”Alright, then. Thank you for the trouble.”

”It’s no trouble, no trouble at all! You don’t have much luggage. Let me carry that for you!”

As Ruan Hongbo spoke, he reached over to take Shen Nian’s suitcase from Lu Cheng’s hand.

To be fair, Ruan Hongbo didn’t have any special intentions. It was completely normal for an upperclassman to help a new student with their luggage during orientation.

But alas, the person he was facing was Lu Cheng. With a simple movement of his hand, Lu Cheng evaded Ruan Hongbo’s attempt to take the suitcase, leaving him grabbing at empty air.

”Not necessary.”

Hearing Lu Cheng’s somewhat chilly tone and looking at his own empty hand, Ruan Hongbo froze for a second. ’Did I just sense a trace of danger? It... must have been my imagination. I’m on campus, what’s there to be afraid of!’

With that thought, Ruan Hongbo stopped dwelling on it and turned his cheerful gaze back to Shen Nian and Lu Cheng.

The dangerous aura Ruan Hongbo had sensed was, of course, very real, and it was radiating from the man beside him: Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng was naturally paying close attention to this guy who had suddenly appeared and was now fawning over Shen Nian—especially when he’d tried to snatch her suitcase right out of his hand!

If Lu Cheng hadn’t sensed that the other man posed no real threat to Shen Nian—and that his gaze, while filled with awe, wasn’t lecherous—he would never have let him get within a single foot of her.

Lu Cheng always paid a little extra attention to any man who showed up around Shen Nian, but he wouldn’t go so far as to restrict her.

Shen Nian had the freedom to make friends, and he certainly wasn’t going to just lock her away.

However, if anyone had ill intentions toward Shen Nian, Lu Cheng certainly wouldn’t let them off the hook easily.

”Is this your older brother? He’s so good to you!”

So good to her, apparently, that he wouldn’t even let anyone else help with her luggage.

Ruan Hongbo, of course, hadn’t meant anything by calling him ”older brother.” Shen Nian was so young, after all; the possibility that she might be married hadn’t even crossed his mind.

Besides, Lu Cheng did look a few years older than Shen Nian.

However, that ”older brother” from Ruan Hongbo made Lu Cheng’s expression instantly darken. ’What kind of eyes does this guy have? Shen Nian and I are obviously wearing a couple’s outfit today, so how could he mistake us for brother and sister!’

Shooting Ruan Hongbo a look, Lu Cheng scoffed to himself. ’Even if this person has no ill intentions toward Shen Nian, I have no good impression of him whatsoever!’
