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

Chapter 94: Chapter 94: That Was in the Past, Not Anymore

The man at the front was the son of the old man Shen Nian had just saved.

When she saw him approach, Shen Nian worried for a moment that something else had gone wrong. However, seeing that the man’s expression wasn’t anxious, she felt a great sense of relief.

"The doctor said it’s all thanks to you that my dad is temporarily out of danger. Your ginseng was also a huge help for his condition. Thank you so much. You’re our family’s saviors! I’m taking my dad to the hospital at the next stop. This is my family’s address and phone number. Please take it. You must give us a chance to thank you properly in the future!"

As he spoke, the man handed Shen Nian a slip of paper with an address and phone number written on it.

"I’m just glad the old gentleman is all right. You should get back to your father. Really, it was nothing!"

"No, I insist. I’m worried about my dad, so I’ll head back now. Please keep the address and phone number safe. You have to come find me, okay?"

With that, the man turned and left. His father’s condition had only just stabilized, so he didn’t dare to be away for too long. Besides, he needed to get ready to disembark at the next station.

Shen Nian waved goodbye to the man, then looked down at the slip of paper in her hand, feeling a bit helpless.

She had saved the man out of the goodness of her heart, not for any reward.

Still, it was a wonderful feeling to be thanked for doing a good deed.

Although Shen Nian hadn’t been looking for any thanks, she still tucked the note away. After all, it was the polite thing to do.

The surrounding passengers who hadn’t known what was going on soon heard about the incident in the next car. Their gazes toward Shen Nian and Lu Cheng were now filled with respect and friendliness.

After all, people who did good deeds without expecting anything in return were worthy of respect these days.

Shen Nian turned her head and saw Lu Cheng staring at her with an intense gaze. Her heart skipped a beat. ’Oh no, could he be suspicious about the ginseng I pulled out?’

At the time, she had only been focused on saving the man and hadn’t thought it through. Now that she considered it, the fact that she just happened to have ginseng on her... even if others didn’t find it odd, Lu Cheng, who was right beside her, surely would!

"Um, about the ginseng... I don’t think I ever told you, did I? I found it by accident on the back mountain near the village a while ago. It wasn’t very big. I just brought a little bit of the ginseng root with me and left the rest at home. I never thought it would actually come in handy!"

After she finished speaking, Shen Nian watched Lu Cheng, her heart pounding with worry. ’I wonder if he’ll believe such a flimsy story.’

However, Shen Nian never expected that Lu Cheng’s focus would be on something completely different.

"The back mountain?"

"Yeah, the one behind our village! I used to go up there to play all the time when I was little!"

"You went by yourself?"

"Yeah."

"Don’t do that again."

"Huh?"

"It’s too dangerous to go up the mountain alone. If you want to go in the future, I’ll go with you."

"..."

Shen Nian stared at Lu Cheng. ’Shouldn’t he be suspicious about where I got the ginseng? How did this suddenly turn into him being worried about my safety on the back mountain?’

Besides, she’d climbed that mountain countless times since she was a child. What was so dangerous about it? And ever since she’d found that Lingzhi, Shen Nian had started to think the back mountain might be a treasure trove!

"It’s not dangerous at all! I used to go by myself all the time!"

"That was before. Not anymore. Not unless I’m with you."

After saying that, Lu Cheng seemed to worry that Shen Nian might get angry, so he quickly added another sentence.

"I’ll be worried about you."
