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

While waiting for Cao Yuqing to pack, Chu Lingxiu grew bored and started to look around the dorm room.

The dorm was very clean. Cao Yuqing had spoken very poorly of her roommates, but from what Chu Lingxiu could see, it didn’t seem that bad. At the very least, her first impression of the room was a good one.

As for the people in the dorm, Chu Lingxiu’s gaze fell upon the other three residents besides Cao Yuqing.

However, the first person she saw when her gaze moved over was Shen Nian.

’Shen Nian! It’s really her!’

Chu Lingxiu knew Shen Nian was also at B University; Chu Yunze had told her. But she had never imagined that Shen Nian would be one of her roommates in the very dorm she was moving into.

The look of utter shock Chu Lingxiu gave Shen Nian was so obvious that it wasn’t just Wang Chunhua and Qi Yunzhi beside Shen Nian who noticed—even Cao Yuqing, who was busy packing off to the side, saw it.

’What’s going on? Does Shen Nian know her? Isn’t Shen Nian from the countryside? How could she know someone like that?’

At this thought, Cao Yuqing couldn’t help but pause her packing to watch Chu Lingxiu walk toward Shen Nian.

Only after she was standing in front of Shen Nian did Chu Lingxiu realize what she had done. A flash of panic crossed her face, but she quickly forced herself to calm down.

”You... you’re in this dorm too?”

Seeing Chu Lingxiu standing before her, her voice tinged with an eagerness to please—a complete reversal from her attitude at the Chu Family’s home—Shen Nian felt a sense of reassurance.

’It seems my reminder to Chu Yunze worked.’

’And I wasn’t wrong. This girl, Chu Lingxiu, isn’t bad at heart. There’s hope for her yet!’

With this thought, Shen Nian’s gaze toward Chu Lingxiu softened considerably.

”Yes. I didn’t expect that the person switching with Cao Yuqing would be you.”

Chu Lingxiu watched Shen Nian intently as she spoke, observing the changes in her expression and listening to her tone. Finally, she let out a sigh of relief.

’That’s great. Shen Nian isn’t angry with me over what happened last time. She’s still willing to talk to me normally.’

”I didn’t expect to find you here, either. Don’t get me wrong! That’s not what I meant!”

Halfway through her sentence, Chu Lingxiu suddenly realized her words could be misinterpreted, and she panicked, afraid Shen Nian would think she was unhappy about sharing a dorm with her.

In fact, when she saw Shen Nian was here, Chu Lingxiu felt a subtle hint of joy.

”I didn’t misunderstand.”

Shen Nian smiled. ’When she’s being agreeable like this, she’s so much more pleasant than when she was acting like a brat! I knew it. The Chu Family are all such good people; how could their daughter be truly bad?’

”Um, about what happened last time... it was my fault. Actually, I’ve been wanting to find a chance to apologize to you. I’m sorry!”

After a moment’s hesitation, Chu Lingxiu still said the words. And once she had, she felt a great sense of relief.

”It’s all in the past. It’s okay.”

”You... you weren’t hurt last time, were you?”

Chu Lingxiu remembered pushing Shen Nian to the ground. Afterward, she had actually been worried that Shen Nian might have been injured, but at the time, she...

”I’m fine.”

”That’s good, that’s good.”

Chu Lingxiu finally let out a true sigh of relief. Then she looked at Shen Nian again. ’Her big brother was right,’ she thought. ’Shen Nian really does seem like a good person.’

’No wonder someone like Brother Lu Cheng is so deeply in love with her.’
