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

”Lingxiu, are you sure? Do you really want to change rooms?”

Feasible as it was, Gu Shuxin still had to put on a show of being reluctant to see Chu Lingxiu leave.

However, she had no idea that the current Chu Lingxiu wasn’t as easy to fool as before. Moreover, Chu Lingxiu had caught the fleeting change in her expression.

Although Chu Lingxiu couldn’t guess exactly what Gu Shuxin was thinking, she could at least tell that Gu Shuxin was definitely scheming something.

’Perhaps she’s even thinking about how my leaving this dorm will benefit her, right?’

At this thought, Chu Lingxiu’s heart grew a few degrees colder.

”Yeah, I’m changing. After all, I’ve never gone back on my word.”

”Alright, since you’ve made up your mind, I definitely won’t stop you. But, Lingxiu, even if we’re not in the same room, we have to stay as close as we were before, okay?”

Chu Lingxiu looked at Gu Shuxin, smiled, and said nothing.

’Whether they’d stay close, she didn’t know. But she was at least certain that things could never be the same as before.’

From the moment Chu Lingxiu discovered Gu Shuxin had lied to her, everything had already changed in her heart.

Gu Shuxin didn’t think much of it, simply assuming Chu Lingxiu had agreed.

”Looks like you bought a lot of things today!”

Chu Lingxiu’s gaze shifted from Gu Shuxin to the bags she had brought back with her.

If her roommate were anyone other than Chu Lingxiu, Gu Shuxin would have definitely flaunted her purchases. But now, she found it hard to show off.

”I remember you don’t usually buy things like this, do you?”

”Mhm, they were gifts from someone else.”

After what Chu Lingxiu said, Gu Shuxin hadn’t felt she could admit to buying them herself.

”Gifts from someone else? Qi Chengliang?”

Gu Shuxin had planned to just be vague about it, not expecting Chu Lingxiu to mention Qi Chengliang’s name directly.

But on second thought, it made sense. After all, Qi Chengliang had said what he did in front of Chu Lingxiu last time. No matter that she was just using Qi Chengliang now, from Chu Lingxiu’s perspective, she and Qi Chengliang were supposed to be a couple.

”Yeah, they’re from him.”

”Oh, Qi Chengliang is so good to you!”

”He is... yes.”

Hearing Chu Lingxiu’s words, Gu Shuxin was stuck—agreeing felt wrong, but so did disagreeing. In the end, she could only give an awkward laugh and a noncommittal response.

She thought that if Chu Lingxiu asked again, she would choose her words carefully and explain. However, to her surprise, Chu Lingxiu said nothing more after that one sentence.

This left Gu Shuxin’s heart hanging in suspense, an incredibly uncomfortable feeling.

”Lingxiu...”

”I’m so tired from today. I want to go to sleep now. Whatever it is, let’s talk about it later!”

After saying this, Chu Lingxiu climbed into her bed. She really didn’t want to hear another word from Gu Shuxin about how great her relationship with Qi Chengliang was, because it would only make her feel even more keenly how stupid she had been to cause trouble for Shen Nian on Gu Shuxin’s behalf.

”Okay, then get some rest.”

After that, Gu Shuxin returned to her own spot. She completely ignored Jiang Jiajia, who wanted to pull her aside and ask something.

In other dorm rooms, the first day of school would surely have kicked off with a lively first ”pillow talk” session. But in rooms 304 and 405, the first night on campus was exceptionally quiet.

And at that moment, in another place, someone’s heart was anything but quiet.
