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

”You...”

Meng Sijia looked at Meng Chengyu, wishing she could just walk over and beat some sense into her useless brother.

But the deed was done. Beating Meng Chengyu wouldn’t solve anything. What she had to do now was figure out how to fix this.

”There’s no other way. Before they trace it back to us, we have to cut all ties with the person who did this. We can’t let anyone connect this incident to our Meng Family! Otherwise, the Meng Family is in for some serious trouble!”

”Si Jia, is it really that serious?”

”Yeah, Sis, is it that serious? Aren’t you exaggerating a little? It’s just some ordinary woman. Is someone really going to make things difficult for the Meng Family over her? Even if they do, can’t we just pull some strings and throw some money at the problem to make it go away?”

Isn’t that how he always dealt with the trouble he got into? Nothing has ever gone wrong all these years!

Meng Chengyu was completely unfazed.

”What do you know! The person investigating this case is Lu Cheng! With Lu Cheng’s skills, he’ll definitely get to the bottom of this quickly. If the Meng Family gets dragged into this and something happens, can you bear that responsibility?”

”Tsk, tsk. I knew there was a reason you were so worked up over this. So, it’s about Lu Cheng again! Sis, you can’t throw your own brother under the bus just because you have a crush on some guy!”

Hearing Lu Cheng’s name, Meng Chengyu completely missed the point of Meng Sijia’s warning. Instead, he just assumed she was trying to look good in front of Lu Cheng.

”You... I can’t talk to you. When this all blows up, don’t come crying to me!”

”Tch, I don’t believe anything’s going to happen!”

Meng Chengyu scoffed at Meng Sijia’s worries and warnings, not caring in the slightest.

When that day truly came, Meng Chengyu would look back on what Meng Sijia had told him and be consumed by a regret so deep it was unbearable.

If he had the choice, he would have done anything to go back to this moment and listen to his sister.

Meng Sijia had wanted to say more, but seeing Meng Chengyu’s dismissive expression and the looks of disbelief on her parents’ faces, she lost the will to speak. Fuming, she stormed out of the house.

But as furious as she was with Meng Chengyu, Meng Sijia couldn’t just stand by and do nothing about the situation.

She knew the sort of people Meng Chengyu usually associated with. So, after leaving the house, Meng Sijia went straight to find her brother’s closest cronies.

However, Meng Sijia didn’t find them. Instead, she heard that the person she was looking for had already been taken away by the police.

’It’s over!’

That was the first thought that popped into Meng Sijia’s head when she heard the news.

She had expected Lu Cheng to act fast, but she never imagined he would be *this* fast!

She hadn’t even had a chance to do anything, and Lu Cheng had already traced the investigation this far.

There was no way Meng Sijia could go to the police and demand they release someone. Otherwise, wouldn’t that be walking right into a trap?

Now, the only thing she could do was leave it to fate! She could only hope that heaven would be kind to the Meng Family!

When Meng Sijia returned home again, a look of despair was etched on her face.

This time, she startled Father Meng, Mother Meng, and even Meng Chengyu.

”...There’s nothing I can do.”

Meng Sijia told her parents and brother that the person Meng Chengyu had hired to do the job had been taken away by the police, then she just shook her head.

”What do we do? Dad, Mom, what if he rats me out? What am I going to do? Am I going to jail?! I don’t want to go to jail! You have to think of something!”
