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

Chapter 203: Chapter 203: Coveting Her Man Right in Front of Her

Miao Suiping just stared at Lu Cheng, completely mesmerized.

However, Lu Cheng never once glanced back at her. His eyes remained fixed on Shen Nian, as if she were the only person in his world.

This blatant difference in treatment made Miao Suiping’s resentment for Shen Nian flare up again. She wished she could just wrench Lu Cheng’s gaze away from Shen Nian and onto herself.

But she never stopped to think: Lu Cheng was Shen Nian’s husband. Wasn’t it perfectly normal for him to only have eyes for her? Who did Miao Suiping think she was, and why on earth should Lu Cheng pay any attention to her?

Guo Chunxiang turned to find Miao Changfu and nagged him for a while, but she couldn’t get a single word out of him and quickly grew bored.

When she turned back to look for Miao Suiping, she found her daughter staring fixedly in Shen Nian’s direction.

"Sui Ping, what are you looking at? What’s so interesting about that wretched girl, Shen Nian!"

"Mom, who said I was looking at Shen Nian!"

"Then what are you looking at?"

"The man standing next to Shen Nian, is that the man she married?"

Miao Suiping pulled Guo Chunxiang aside and whispered in her ear. After all, she was still a young woman, and it was a bit embarrassing to be discussing another man.

"Yes, that’s him. Anyway, that whole family is bad news!"

"Mom, what’s his story? Didn’t you go to Shen Nian’s home? You should know, right?"

"Sui Ping, why are you asking all this?"

Guo Chunxiang looked at Miao Suiping with suspicion. ’It can’t be... my daughter’s fallen for that Lu Cheng fellow, has she? He is handsome, she had to admit that when she saw him last time.’

’But no matter how handsome he is, isn’t he already married to Shen Nian?!’

"Oh, come on, Mom, just tell me!"

"Sui Ping, tell me the truth. Have you taken a liking to him?"

"Mom, I just think... he’s handsome. And he has such a powerful presence just standing there..."

’He’s so captivating!’

"There are plenty of handsome men out there. You’re my daughter, you think you’ll have trouble marrying a good man in the future? Why would you want someone’s sloppy seconds?"

’In Guo Chunxiang’s eyes, since Lu Cheng was already married to Shen Nian, he was used goods. What good was being handsome!’

"But I think he’s the most handsome man I’ve ever seen! Mom, haven’t you always said I’m better than Shen Nian in every way? So why does she get to marry such a handsome man, and I can’t?"

"Well..."

’Guo Chunxiang had to admit it was true. You’d be hard-pressed to find a better-looking man than Lu Cheng in any of the surrounding villages. What kind of incredible dumb luck had Shen Nian stumbled into?’

’Even if she was determined to find the absolute best man for her daughter in the future, she couldn’t guarantee she’d find one even better-looking than Lu Cheng!’

’Besides, the Lu Family’s circumstances were genuinely good! Ugh, how did Shen Nian of the Shen family get so lucky!’

’If only her own daughter was the one married to Lu Cheng!’

Seeing that Guo Chunxiang seemed to be swayed, Miao Suiping’s confidence swelled.

"Mom, I don’t care, I’ve set my heart on him! It’s rare for me to like a man this much. You have to help me!"

"Help you? How am I supposed to help you? They’re already married!"

"So what if they’re married? People can get divorced, can’t they? Wasn’t there some trouble when they got married? Maybe after a while, they won’t be able to stand each other anymore!"

"Well..."

***

Shen Nian had no idea that not far from her, someone was already hatching a plot for her husband. If she had known, she probably would have marched right up to Guo Chunxiang and Miao Suiping and slapped them both across the face.

’Coveting her man right in front of her? The absolute nerve!’

But right now, Shen Nian’s attention was focused entirely on Miao Dagui, who lay unconscious on the bed.
