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

If Qi Chengliang had only invited her to lunch, Qi Yunzhi would have agreed without a second thought. But her three best friends were with her, so no matter what, she had to ask for their opinions before replying to Qi Chengliang.

Qi Chengliang had no objection to this. He gestured toward Qi Yunzhi and nodded, giving her plenty of time to ask her friends. He wasn’t in a hurry.

”Xiao Nian, Lingxiu, Chunhua, what do you guys think? My brother... he’s actually a pretty good guy.”

Qi Yunzhi said, looking at her three friends. After all, Qi Chengliang was her brother—one she was close to—and she hoped her best friends wouldn’t misunderstand him too much.

’Though his previous behavior certainly could have given them the wrong impression.’

”I don’t mind. Since he’s your brother, it’s the least we can do.”

Shen Nian was the first to speak. On the one hand, it was because he was Qi Yunzhi’s brother. On the other, after seeing how Qi Chengliang was acting, she was genuinely a little curious about him.

Seeing Shen Nian nod, Chu Lingxiu naturally had no objections either. She didn’t have any hard feelings toward Qi Chengliang to begin with. In fact, because of Gu Shuxin, she felt a certain sense of kinship with him, as if they were fellow sufferers.

Since Shen Nian and Chu Lingxiu had no objections, Wang Chunhua certainly wasn’t going to have any either. And so, after getting her three roommates’ approval, Qi Yunzhi nodded at Qi Chengliang.

”Great! Let’s go now. I know a restaurant with amazing food. I’ll take you there.”

Shen Nian didn’t know much else about Qi Chengliang, but she had to admit, she was impressed by his ability to scout out good food.

The restaurant Qi Chengliang brought them to was indeed quite good. Even the shy Wang Chunhua was so captivated by the delicious food that she temporarily forgot her worries and ate with gusto.

”See? I told you this place was pretty good. If you guys like it, I’ll bring you back again.”

Seeing his sister’s friends enjoy the restaurant he’d picked made Qi Chengliang very happy.

Shen Nian just smiled without saying anything. The restaurant’s food was certainly good, but to her, nothing compared to the delicacies she made using produce from her own space.

’If Qi Chengliang ever tasted her food, he probably wouldn’t be raving about this restaurant so much.’

”You said it, Bro. Don’t you go back on your word!”

Qi Yunzhi was very keen on getting her brother to treat them.

”What are you talking about? When have I ever lied to you!”

”That’s more like it. By the way, Bro, what was the deal with you and that Gu Shuxin, anyway?”

Even though it was over, Qi Yunzhi was still a little curious about her brother’s love life.

”Uh, well... it’s just one of those things. Anyway, I’ve got nothing to do with her now, right?”

”’Just one of those things’? I told you a long time ago that woman was no good! And I was right! To think it was Gu Shuxin... Bro, your taste in women is truly awful!”

”Alright, alright, fine! I have bad taste, okay? Can we just turn the page on this? Let’s not bring it up again!”

After all, it wasn’t exactly his proudest moment, and Qi Chengliang didn’t want to keep rehashing it.

”Fine, we won’t talk about it then.”

While the group was enjoying their meal, on the other side of town, the very subject of their conversation, Gu Shuxin, had just managed to avoid the crowds at school. She slipped out the campus gate at a time when few people were around.

Just as Gu Shuxin was about to leave, a car suddenly pulled up, stopping right in front of her.
