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

After saying goodbye to Chu Yunze, Shen Nian and the other two walked on, carrying the things they had bought.

Since Zhang Ying was pregnant, Shen Nian and Lin Jingyun naturally didn’t let her carry much. Besides, Zhang Ying’s home was the closest, so they decided to drop her things off at her place first. Only then did the three of them continue on their way.

They had already agreed on the way over that since it was still early, they would go to Shen Nian’s house first to officially begin their dressmaking lessons with her.

However, just as they were getting close to the building where Shen Nian and Lu Cheng lived, Shen Nian heard the old man at the gatehouse call out to her, saying she had a phone call.

”Sister Jingyun, Sister Yingzi, wait for me a minute. I’ll go take this call and be right back.”

After she spoke, Shen Nian set down the things she was carrying and went to the gatehouse to take the call.

As soon as she picked up, Shen Nian recognized Lu Xinyue’s voice on the line. Hearing it, Shen Nian felt a bit worried. ’Could something have happened at home?’

’After all, she had just called home not long ago. If nothing was wrong, Lu Xinyue probably wouldn’t be calling her again so soon, would she?’

”Xinyue, did something happen at home?”

”Sister-in-law, don’t worry, nothing’s wrong at home. Your parents’ side of the family is fine, too! I’m calling you about the clothing factory.”

”What about the clothing factory?”

Shen Nian breathed a sigh of relief hearing that her family was fine. But when she heard it was about the clothing factory, she didn’t let her guard down. After all, it was one of her most important business ventures at the moment.

”Nothing’s wrong with the factory itself. It’s just, you know that contract you signed with the Zhuo Family? Well, Uncle Zhuo suddenly came to me today and said he wants to amend the contract. He wants to increase your share from forty percent to fifty percent.”

Lu Xinyue had been learning a lot from Shen Nian recently, so she understood quite a bit about things like company shares.

An increase from forty to fifty percent might not sound like a huge jump, but once the factory expanded and started turning a profit, that ten percent would be a significant amount of money.

Furthermore, Uncle Zhuo hadn’t given a reason for wanting to change the contract. Since nothing major had happened at the factory recently, Lu Xinyue couldn’t figure out why he was doing this. She was worried there might be some underlying issue, so her only option was to call Shen Nian.

Hearing what Lu Xinyue said, Shen Nian was a little surprised. But she quickly figured out the likely reason for Zhuo Jiangtao’s decision.

’It most likely has to do with the trip I took with Zhuo Jiangtao to the provincial capital to meet the He Family.’

Shen Nian hadn’t forgotten just how shocked Zhuo Jiangtao was when he learned about her connection to the He Family.

’This extra ten percent is probably Zhuo Jiangtao’s way of showing respect to the He Family.’

’The He Family holds a prominent position in the provincial capital. In Zhuo Jiangtao’s eyes, if the Zhuo Family could use her to establish a connection with the He Family, they would already be the ones benefiting immensely from the partnership.’

’If she were to refuse this extra ten percent, Zhuo Jiangtao would probably just end up worried. Accepting it, on the other hand, might actually put him at ease.’

’In any case, now that she had chosen to partner with the Zhuo Family, as long as they remained loyal, they would all be in the same boat going forward.’

”Sister-in-law, is there some kind of problem here?”
