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

"Sorry, did I scare you?"

A while later, Chu Yunze’s expression gradually softened. He knew his sudden stop must have frightened Shen Nian.

"No, I’m fine."

For the rest of the journey, neither of them spoke again, though they were both lost in their own thoughts.

By the time they arrived at the Chu family’s home, Chu Yunze’s expression was back to normal. It was impossible to tell that anything had happened earlier.

"Nian, you’re finally here."

Knowing Shen Nian was coming today, Chu Zhengwei had come downstairs early to wait. After a long wait, she had finally arrived.

"Grandpa Chu, sorry to have kept you waiting."

"I’m just glad you’re here. After all, I’m waiting for you to give me another acupuncture session!"

"..."

The other members of the Chu family looked on with resignation when they heard Chu Zhengwei’s words. Who would have thought that their family’s once-formidable patriarch would grow fond of getting acupuncture?

But what could they do? Shen Nian’s acupuncture was just that effective. Not only did it help the meridians in his legs slowly recover, but it also made his entire body feel much more invigorated.

"Ahem, Nian, I don’t mean to rush you! You must be tired from your trip. Rest for a bit and have some fruit."

"That’s right, Xiao Nian. For the past two days, Sister Zhang and I have been trying the method you taught us and made quite a few rose pastries. Give them a try and tell us what you think."

As soon as Shen Nian arrived at the Chu home, she was met with their warm hospitality. Elsewhere, however, someone else had been on edge for days.

After Gu Shuxin persuaded Chu Lingxiu to go home last time, she had not received any news from her.

Normally, she would have been glad for the peace and quiet of not hearing from Chu Lingxiu. But now, she was anxiously waiting for news from her!

When she still hadn’t heard from Chu Lingxiu by the next day, Gu Shuxin grew impatient and called the Chu family’s residence.

The Chu family’s maid answered the phone. After Gu Shuxin explained she was calling for Chu Lingxiu, she wasn’t put through. Instead, the maid told her that their young miss was unavailable to take the call at the moment.

’Unavailable? It’s just a phone call. What could possibly be so inconvenient!’

Gu Shuxin didn’t believe the Chu family’s maid for a second.

However, when she called a second time, the result was unchanged.

Gu Shuxin was now starting to get truly anxious.

’Could something have happened to Chu Lingxiu? Or has even she become unwilling to help me?’

’No, I can’t just sit here and wait. I have to find a way to change this situation.’

With that thought, Gu Shuxin gathered her things, left her home, and hailed a cab straight to the entrance of the gated community.

Non-residents couldn’t come and go as they pleased. You either had to be escorted in by a resident or have permission from the homeowner.

Since Gu Shuxin couldn’t reach Chu Lingxiu, there was no way Chu Lingxiu could come get her. Besides, even if she could, Chu Lingxiu was currently grounded by the Chu family and couldn’t get out anyway.

Besides, Gu Shuxin hadn’t come here today to see Chu Lingxiu in the first place.

"Hello, could you please contact the Gu family? Tell them it’s Gu Shuxin."

Gu Shuxin spoke to the guard at the security gate. The guards would relay a visitor’s information to the residents, and if they agreed to the visit, a message would be sent back.

As she waited, Gu Shuxin grew tense, terrified that the guard would return to tell her she’d been refused entry.

Just then, a car drove past her and through the gates. Watching it enter the community so freely, Gu Shuxin was filled with envy and jealousy.

’Once upon a time, I lived here too!’

’Once upon a time, I could come and go from this place as I pleased!’
