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

After he spoke, Lu Cheng didn’t wait for their reply and walked out with Shen Nian in his arms.

Miao Suiping watched Lu Cheng carry Shen Nian, a wave of jealousy washing over her. ’If only I were the one he was holding!’

”Lu Cheng...”

Miao Suiping stepped forward and called out his name, her voice dripping with a fabricated sweetness that was enough to make your skin crawl.

After calling his name, Miao Suiping stared at Lu Cheng expectantly, waiting for his response.

However, Lu Cheng’s mind was completely occupied with Shen Nian; how could he possibly notice Miao Suiping?

Besides, even if he had noticed her, his impression of Miao Suiping would not have been favorable.

After all, Lu Cheng had seen with his own eyes how unkind Miao Suiping and her mother were toward Shen Nian.

In Lu Cheng’s eyes, anyone who treated Shen Nian poorly was certainly no friend of his. The only reason he didn’t treat them as outright enemies was because they were technically Shen Nian’s relatives.

Lu Cheng walked right past Miao Suiping without a moment’s hesitation, not even sparing her a glance.

It would have been one thing if he had simply left, but instead, after walking past Miao Suiping, Lu Cheng stopped right in front of the Shen brothers.

Shen Xiangnan had just been fuming over Miao Suiping’s advances toward Lu Cheng. So, when Lu Cheng completely ignored her, Shen Xiangnan inwardly cheered.

Now, seeing Lu Cheng stop before him, Shen Xiangnan was about to make a smug comment, but his expression changed the moment he saw Shen Nian’s pale face in Lu Cheng’s arms.

”Brother-in-law, I’ll take you to the room we usually stay in when we’re here.”

”Mm.”

Seeing that Shen Xiangnan had his priorities straight, Lu Cheng’s expression softened slightly. Hearing Shen Xiangnan call him ”brother-in-law” also brought a small flicker of pleasure to his heart.

As she watched Lu Cheng follow Shen Xiangnan away, still carrying Shen Nian, Miao Suiping stomped her foot in bitter resentment.

”Mom...”

Miao Suiping whined to Guo Chunxiang. If she was going to get what she wanted, Guo Chunxiang was the only one who could help her now.

”Pay them no mind. What’s there to be so smug about!”

”Mom, you know that’s not what I’m mad about!”

Miao Suiping tugged on Guo Chunxiang’s hand and stomped her foot again.

As she turned her head, her eyes met Shen Xiangdong’s.

Miao Suiping had always looked down on Shen Xiangdong for his simple, honest nature. She never expected that, at this moment, he would seem like a completely different person. His entire aura was nothing like it used to be.

The way Shen Xiangdong looked at her sent a shiver through Miao Suiping’s heart, making her feel as if she had just been warned.

’What is Shen Xiangdong trying to warn me about? Don’t tell me he’s planning to stick up for Shen Nian, too?’

’This Shen family is so annoying. Not a single one of them does what I want!’

’Hmph! So they all want to stick up for Shen Nian, do they? Fine! I’ll just have to go against her at every turn! We’ll see what they can do when I snatch Lu Cheng away from her!’

Shen Xiangnan led them to the room they usually used, and Lu Cheng laid Shen Nian down on the bed.

Utterly exhausted, Shen Nian had already fallen asleep in Lu Cheng’s arms on the way there.

After settling Shen Nian in bed and pulling the covers over her, Lu Cheng sat by her side, his heart aching as he gently stroked her cheek.

Shen Xiangnan had also seen Shen Nian give their grandfather acupuncture earlier, and the shock still hadn’t faded. ’My sister... is actually that amazing!’

But now, seeing her sleeping so deeply, her face etched with exhaustion, his heart ached for her.

Then, recalling Miao Suiping’s behavior when they first arrived, a fresh wave of anger surged through him.
