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

When Cao Yuqing saw Chu Lingxiu walk over to Shen Nian, she wondered if the two of them knew each other.

That suspicion was confirmed after she heard their conversation.

And when she saw Chu Lingxiu actually apologize to Shen Nian, Cao Yuqing’s expression soured even more.

’Chu Lingxiu hadn’t shown her an ounce of courtesy, but with Shen Nian, she was so gentle. Why?!’

The more she thought about it, the more unfair it seemed, and the more resentful her gaze toward Shen Nian became.

Standing with Shen Nian, Chu Lingxiu quickly felt Cao Yuqing’s resentful gaze upon her. She turned her head, and the vicious look on Cao Yuqing’s face reminded her of what she had said back in Room 405.

A thought suddenly struck Chu Lingxiu. ’The ”country bumpkin roommate” Cao Yuqing was talking about... that must have included Shen Nian!’

She had just apologized to Shen Nian and received her forgiveness, and at that moment, she felt a strong sense of kinship with her.

As a result, any shred of goodwill she might have had for Cao Yuqing, who had been slandering Shen Nian, completely vanished.

”Aren’t you supposed to be packing? Why haven’t you started? I’ve been waiting forever! Or do you need someone from dorm management to come and move your stuff for you?”

Watching Cao Yuqing, Chu Lingxiu’s tone grew even sharper. After all, she had already blacklisted this type of person and couldn’t care less if she was hated for it.

Cao Yuqing had wanted to confront Shen Nian, but after being challenged so forcefully by Chu Lingxiu, she didn’t dare say a word.

’Whatever. There’s plenty of time. I’ll figure it out eventually!’

Once Cao Yuqing had finally moved all her things out, everyone in Room 304 instantly felt like the very air in the dorm had become much fresher.

Watching Chu Lingxiu unpack her things, Qi Yunzhi and Wang Chunhua exchanged a hesitant look before pulling Shen Nian aside to speak in hushed tones.

”Shen Nian, you knew our new roommate from before?”

The forceful way Chu Lingxiu had just dealt with Cao Yuqing, on top of her ability to get dorm management to arrange the room swap, was more than enough to tell Wang Chunhua and Qi Yunzhi that this new roommate was no ordinary person.

And yet, a person like that had just apologized to Shen Nian!

”Mhm, we met once before.”

Shen Nian nodded. ’Her two roommates seem a little afraid of Chu Lingxiu.’ She glanced over at Chu Lingxiu. ’And Chu Lingxiu herself has seemed a little tense ever since she walked in.’

’She was having such a great time tearing into Cao Yuqing just a moment ago. Why is she so nervous now?’

”Just once?”

Qi Yunzhi gave Shen Nian a skeptical look. Judging by how Shen Nian and Chu Lingxiu were acting, it really didn’t seem like they’d only met once before.

”Mhm.”

Shen Nian nodded. As she turned to look at Chu Lingxiu, their eyes met.

Shen Nian didn’t look away.

”Lingxiu, from now on, we’re going to be roommates. Why don’t you come and meet everyone?”

When Chu Lingxiu heard what Shen Nian said, her eyes widened in surprise.

’It was already surprising enough that Shen Nian didn’t resent her and had forgiven her so easily. She never expected Shen Nian to now actively try and help her fit in with the rest of them.’

’In fact, she had even braced herself to be ostracized. After all, the other two roommates were clearly already on good terms with Shen Nian, and she was just an outsider who had barged in halfway through.’
