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

”Yes, this Meng Chengyu is indeed a spoiled heir, but his sister is quite the schemer. Lu Cheng, I’ve heard that this Miss Meng has feelings for you...”

Chu Deming said, looking at Lu Cheng. He was, after all, the Head of the Chu Family. Even though he wasn’t part of Lu Cheng’s corporation, he could certainly find out what was going on within it if he so desired.

Especially Meng Sijia’s feelings for Lu Cheng, which were blatantly obvious. Anyone could find out with the slightest bit of inquiry.

”Uncle Chu, Xiao Nian is the only one in my heart, and she will always be the only one!”

In other words: ’Don’t involve me in anything related to other women, not even as a joke!’

Of course, Chu Deming didn’t actually think Lu Cheng had any feelings for Meng Sijia. He was just teasing him, making a joke. He hadn’t expected to receive such a firm answer.

’It seems Lu Cheng’s feelings for Shen Nian are incredibly deep! He can’t even stand a casual mention of another woman liking him. Is he worried that Shen Nian will get jealous if she finds out?’

”Well said! Lu Cheng is right! You marry a wife to cherish her! Once you have a wife at home, you should naturally draw a clear line with other women!”

Chu Zhengwei was a deeply devoted man himself. He had married his wife when he was young and still living in the countryside. For many years after, their bond remained strong. No matter how hard he struggled to make his way in the world, just thinking of his wife at home gave him immense strength.

So, even after his wife passed away, Chu Zhengwei never once considered remarrying. He intended to spend the rest of his life cherishing the memory of his dear wife!

And because he was such a devoted man himself, Chu Zhengwei was especially appreciative when he saw Lu Cheng’s profound affection.

”At least Grandpa Chu understands me!”

Lu Cheng looked at Chu Zhengwei, smiling as he nodded.

”...”

Chu Deming, standing to the side, was dumbfounded. ’I didn’t really say anything, did I? How did I suddenly become the odd one out? And... am I being looked down on?’

’Hey, no fair! I dote on my wife, too! I’m not interested in other temptations out there!’

’Wasn’t I just trying to lighten the mood with a joke? Fine! I’ll never make a joke like that again, alright?’

Seeing his father’s reaction, Chu Yunze stepped forward and patted his shoulder in a gesture of comfort.

’This brother of mine... you can say anything else about him, but you must never try to interfere with his relationship with Shen Nian, not even as a joke!’

”Since Lu Cheng has said the Mengs are no threat, we don’t need to worry about them. Our main focus should be on the Qin family. By the way, what’s the situation with the Gu family?”

”Same as always. Mr. Gu Sr. is old and in poor health, and the current family head spends all his time with his frail wife, neglecting all other affairs. The Gu family used to be the most prominent of all the great families, but now, everything basically rests on the shoulders of the younger Gu Hengzhi. It can’t be easy for him.”

Chu Deming said with a sigh. Among the great families, the relationship between the Chu and Gu families wasn’t exactly close, but it wasn’t bad either, so they knew a bit about their situation.

Compared to their own family losing Chu Yunze as a viable heir, the Gu family’s situation was far more tragic.

After all, Chu Yunze was merely in poor health; at least he was still alive and with them. But the Gu family, because of that incident all those years ago, had lost so much more than they had.
