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

Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Let Me Feed You

Shen Nian suddenly understood. ’So that’s why I felt so warm even in my sleep. It was all thanks to Lu Cheng!’

"You’re awake? Do you still feel sick? Want to sleep a little longer?"

The moment Lu Cheng saw Shen Nian open her eyes, he asked anxiously. However, he didn’t stop the motion of warming her belly for a second.

Shen Nian shook her head. "I’m much better. It doesn’t hurt anymore."

After speaking, Shen Nian struggled to sit up.

Lu Cheng reached out and gently pushed her back down.

"Stay lying down. Don’t rush to get up."

Lu Cheng knew she probably couldn’t fall back asleep, so he helped her sit up in bed. He even propped a thick pillow behind her back for support.

After tucking the blankets in around her, Lu Cheng stood up and walked off to the side.

Shen Nian watched Lu Cheng the whole time, her gaze following his steps until she noticed something new in the room.

It was a small stove. Shen Nian had seen it in the kitchen before. ’But why is it in our room now?’

Soon, Lu Cheng’s actions gave her the answer.

A small clay pot was warming on the stove. Lu Cheng walked over, picked up a small bowl, and poured something from the pot into it.

Then, Lu Cheng carried the small bowl back over to Shen Nian.

"I wasn’t sure when you’d wake up, so I kept it warm over here. I asked Mom, and she said drinking some brown sugar water would help you feel a little better."

In fact, as Lu Cheng approached with the bowl, Shen Nian had already caught a faint, sweet aroma. She couldn’t believe he had actually made her brown sugar water—and he had even thoughtfully added some shredded ginger.

In her past life, Shen Nian’s menstrual cramps had been far more severe, so she was no stranger to drinking brown sugar water. But never once had anyone so thoughtfully prepared it for her, let alone kept it warming on a small stove just so she could have it hot the moment she woke up.

Shen Nian was, of course, astonished that a tough-as-nails guy like Lu Cheng could be so meticulous.

But after her astonishment came a wave of profound gratitude. She certainly wouldn’t let Lu Cheng’s thoughtfulness go to waste.

"Okay."

Shen Nian nodded, reaching for the bowl in Lu Cheng’s hands.

However, Lu Cheng moved his hand away, not letting her take it.

"It’s a little hot. Let me feed you."

Lu Cheng had probably never fed anyone before. His movements were clumsy, but his expression was completely serious.

Shen Nian just watched as Lu Cheng scooped up a spoonful of the brown sugar water, blew on it gently a couple of times, and brought it to her lips.

She opened her mouth, drank it, and then continued to watch him.

This was surely Lu Cheng’s first time making brown sugar water. The taste was quite ordinary, but to Shen Nian, it was the most delicious brown sugar water she had ever had.

After he finished feeding Shen Nian, Lu Cheng tidied everything up. Just as he was doing so, Lu Xinyue came over and saw her older brother cleaning the room.

’Tsk, tsk,’ she thought. ’Look at my big brother. He’s a total henpecked husband, no doubt about it!’

However, Lu Xinyue hadn’t forgotten the main reason she was there. After shooting a couple of glances at Lu Cheng, she turned and walked over to Shen Nian.

"Sister-in-law, how are you feeling? Still in pain?"

Lu Xinyue had already heard about Shen Nian’s condition from Sun Yufeng. She remembered how pale Shen Nian had looked earlier. Besides, she also felt terrible when she got her period every month, so she could completely empathize.

"I’m fine. Your brother is just making a mountain out of a molehill!"

"Sister-in-law, you don’t have to put on a brave face for me. I feel awful when I get my period, too, so I totally get it!"
