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

Shen Nian didn’t know Gu Shuxin’s true identity, but she was at least certain about one thing: she wasn’t the eldest daughter of the Gu family.

If this news reached the Gu family, who knew what their reaction would be!

”No, she isn’t the eldest daughter of the Gu family. But she does have some connection to them.”

As Chu Lingxiu said this, a feeling of unease grew within her. ’Gu Shuxin knows her own situation perfectly well. Why would she let such a rumor spread without doing anything to stop it?’

’Unless... she was the one who instructed them to spread these rumors?’

If news like this spread all over campus, the one who stood to gain the most was, without a doubt, Gu Shuxin.

After all, the title ”Eldest Daughter of the Gu family” was a huge deal! It was even more significant than her own title as the eldest daughter of the Chu Family!

If Gu Shuxin were to come looking for her now, Chu Lingxiu would definitely confront her and demand to know exactly what she was trying to do.

”Oh, so she isn’t! I really thought she was the eldest daughter of the Gu family! The Gu family has always been so mysterious. I’ve never seen what their eldest daughter looks like, and I’ve barely even heard any rumors about her!”

Not many people knew about the Gu family’s affairs, so it was perfectly normal that Qi Yunzhi didn’t know their eldest daughter was missing.

”But still, if she isn’t, is it really okay for them to be spreading rumors like that? If this blows up, it’ll be a huge mess! What if the Gu family investigates? What are they going to do then!”

Qi Yunzhi’s guess wasn’t far off. After just one night, the news about the ”eldest daughter of the Gu family” had spread all over campus by the next day.

Many people even made a special trip to Gu Shuxin’s classroom to see this ”eldest daughter of the Gu family” for themselves.

Since Chu Lingxiu and Qi Yunzhi were in the same major as Gu Shuxin, they naturally witnessed this ”grand occasion” as well.

Chu Lingxiu watched Gu Shuxin. Although she had her suspicions, she couldn’t be completely certain that Gu Shuxin was the one who had started the rumor.

However, when she saw Gu Shuxin openly accepting the fawning of others, whatever last shred of trust Chu Lingxiu had in her vanished.

Even if Gu Shuxin hadn’t originally intended for this to happen, she was making no effort to refuse it now. In fact, she even seemed to be enjoying it.

’How can you just usurp an identity that isn’t yours? How can you just accept things that don’t belong to you?’

The more Chu Lingxiu learned about the real Gu Shuxin, the more she found she couldn’t condone her actions.

Meanwhile, Gu Shuxin had felt a flicker of worry when she realized the rumors started by Cao Yuqing and Jiang Jiajia had taken on a life of their own.

But she was soon dazzled by the benefits that followed, and she pushed that initial worry deep down, choosing to ignore it.

As those around her flattered her, a part of Gu Shuxin began to wish more and more that she really was the eldest daughter of the Gu family. ’If only it were true!’

’Then, this tiny bit of guilt she felt while reaping all these benefits would surely vanish.’

”Big news! Big news!”

Before Qi Yunzhi had even burst into the dorm room, the others inside could already hear her shouting.

”What’s the big news now?”

Shen Nian watched Qi Yunzhi with a resigned sigh. She had to hand it to her—that girl truly had a singular, heaven-sent passion for gossip.
