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

Chapter 270: Chapter 270: What If There Really Is a Miracle?

Calling him "Grandpa" changed everything.

Before, Shen Nian had only planned on checking in on Mr. He’s health. But now that he was her sworn grandfather, she was more determined than ever to see him recover.

"Grandpa, may I examine you?"

"Of course, Nian. Examine me however you like."

Shen Nian was his savior, and now his sworn granddaughter. Mr. He naturally trusted her completely.

Even the He brothers didn’t object to Shen Nian’s request.

He Yixiong’s illness was primarily cardiac. His heart was already extremely fragile. The last time, on the train, he had experienced a critical emergency.

He was lucky to have been saved that time, but if it happened again, Mr. He would be in grave danger.

"Nian, what is it?"

Seeing Shen Nian’s furrowed brow, the members of the He Family all looked at her with concern.

"Grandpa’s recovery is going well, but his heart is still severely damaged..."

Shen Nian didn’t sugarcoat it, but she didn’t paint the bleakest picture either. After all, the He Family was already well aware of Mr. He’s condition.

Even so, hearing Shen Nian’s words, sorrow still clouded the faces of the He brothers.

Their mother had passed away young, and their father had raised them all on his own, working tirelessly to build the family’s fortune. To think he would have to suffer like this in his old age.

"Why the long faces? Everyone dies when they get old. I’ve lived a long life. I have you two, my sons, two grandsons, and now I even have Nian as my granddaughter. I’m already quite content!"

"Dad!"

The He brothers, already feeling down, felt even worse hearing He Yixiong speak like that.

Shen Nian was touched by the deep affection between father and sons.

"Grandpa, Uncles, do you trust me?"

"Nian, what do you mean by that?"

Shen Nian smiled. "I have a very skilled master, and I’ve learned a lot from him. If you trust me, you could let me perform acupuncture on Grandpa. While I can’t guarantee a full recovery, it should at least improve his condition somewhat."

"Nian..."

"Xiao Nian..."

The three men of the He family—father and sons—stared at Shen Nian in astonishment. ’A young girl like her wants to perform acupuncture on our father? Is this for real?’

Acupuncture was a skill usually reserved for venerable, old masters of Chinese medicine. ’Could someone as young as Shen Nian really do it?’

"You don’t have to doubt her. My sister’s medical skills are incredible! Our maternal grandfather was seriously ill, and Xiao Nian was the one who cured him."

Seeing that the He Family actually doubted his sister, Shen Xiangdong grew a bit displeased and stepped forward to speak.

Shen Nian was amused by Shen Xiangdong’s behavior. ’It’s only natural that they don’t believe me. After all, when I treated Grandpa, wasn’t our own family just treating it as a last-ditch effort?’

"Xiao Nian, are you confident?"

He Hongming asked, his expression serious as he looked at Shen Nian. He already knew about her master from a previous conversation, and deep down, he was inclined to trust her.

Of course, his trust was not just in Shen Nian herself. A larger factor was He Yixiong’s condition. The doctor had already given them a critical condition notice, stating that if he had another episode, it would likely be impossible to save him.

Rather than just suffering as they watched their father take that final step, it was better to let Shen Nian try. ’What if... what if a miracle really happens?’
