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

It really goes to show. You can only tell who’s a good person and who isn’t by comparing them.

Cao Yuqing’s comment killed the mood, leaving Qi Yunzhi at a loss for words. So, she simply went back to her own spot and started unpacking.

Shen Nian had come in and was already standing beside her bed, so she naturally just sat down.

After the dorm fell quiet for a moment, Shen Nian heard a slight rustle from Wang Chunhua’s direction. Shen Nian turned her head and saw Wang Chunhua taking a small package out of her luggage.

”Um, I brought this from my hometown. It’s a local specialty. Would you like to try some? They’re really good.”

Wang Chunhua had to work up her courage to speak. After seeing how exquisite Cao Yuqing’s and Qi Yunzhi’s belongings were, she couldn’t help but feel a little insecure as she looked at the utterly plain package in her hands.

”A local specialty? Oh, I love...”

...local specialties!” Qi Yunzhi started walking toward Wang Chunhua as she spoke, but Cao Yuqing cut her off before she could finish.

As her words were cut short, Qi Yunzhi froze mid-step.

”What is that? Are you sure it’s even edible? I have no intention of getting food poisoning!”

After she spoke, Cao Yuqing shot Wang Chunhua a contemptuous look and snorted. ’A country bumpkin will always be a country bumpkin. What is this junk she brought? How dare she offer it to me!’

Qi Yunzhi glanced at Cao Yuqing, then at Wang Chunhua, an awkward expression on her face. She didn’t know whether she should keep walking forward or just retreat.

’Should I try some of what Wang Chunhua brought, or is it better not to touch it at all?’

Wang Chunhua had spent ages mentally preparing herself to have the courage to offer her snacks. After being spoken to like that by Cao Yuqing, she was on the verge of tears.

Meekly, she began to pull her hand back. Wang Chunhua’s heart swelled with hurt, and her eyes reddened.

However, just as Wang Chunhua was about to rewrap the small dried fish—her hometown specialty—and put them away, a hand suddenly reached out from the side and took one from the package.

Wang Chunhua followed the hand with her eyes and turned to see Shen Nian. The piece of dried fish Shen Nian had just taken was already being popped into her mouth.

”Mm, Chunhua, these are actually really good! Delicious! It’s a shame I didn’t bring any specialties with me this time. Next time I go home, I’ll bring some back for you all to try.”

Shen Nian nodded as she spoke. To prove she was telling the truth, after finishing the first piece, she took another from Wang Chunhua and popped it into her mouth.

”Shen Nian...”

Wang Chunhua looked at Shen Nian with pleasant surprise, tears glistening in her eyes. Her heart was filled with gratitude.

Shen Nian’s actions and words had not only saved her from the awkward situation but had also protected her dignity.

Shen Nian smiled at Wang Chunhua. ’In my past life, I was once just like her.’ Back then, she’d had no education and no worldliness, and for a long time, she had lived with a crippling sense of inferiority.

’But I was given a chance to start over, a chance to regain my confidence.’ Of course, Shen Nian didn’t mind doing Wang Chunhua this small favor, even if it might displease a certain someone else in the room.
