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

Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Are You Sure About Now?

After chatting with Shen Xiangdong for a while about the farm, Shen Nian pulled Lu Cheng out the door.

Father Shen and Mrs. Shen of course had no objections. Seeing that Shen Nian and Lu Cheng had a good relationship, they couldn’t be happier!

"Look, this is the back mountain I told you about before. When I was little, I used to come here to play with my big brother all the time!"

Shen Nian brought Lu Cheng directly to the village’s back mountain. This was the same stretch of forest she wanted to lease.

Lu Cheng looked at Shen Nian and nodded, then turned his gaze to the stretch of forest behind them.

"So this is the place where you climbed trees, waded in the water, and snatched bird eggs when you were a kid?"

"!!!"

Shen Nian stared at Lu Cheng, her eyes wide. ’Isn’t that all in the past?! Why is he bringing it up again!’

’Ugh, I never want to hear that phrase again!’

"You... you... you’re too much!"

"What’s wrong?"

"You don’t think so? Then why do you keep bringing up my embarrassing past!"

"Who said it was an embarrassing past?"

"Isn’t it?"

’Other girls were gentle and virtuous, but when it came to me, I was the one climbing trees, wading in the water, and snatching bird eggs. If that isn’t an embarrassing past, what is!’

"Of course not! I just regret that I couldn’t be there with you, climbing trees, wading in the water, and snatching bird eggs!"

"..."

Shen Nian stared at Lu Cheng for a long time. She had genuinely thought he was just teasing her; she never expected this was how he actually felt.

The age for climbing trees, wading in water, and snatching bird eggs was long in her past. Even now, the memories were fuzzy when she tried to recall them.

’But given the age difference between me and Lu Cheng, back when I was following my big brother around climbing trees, wading in the water, and snatching bird eggs, Lu Cheng had probably already started working!’

’He left home at such a young age for such a grueling place.’ As she thought about it, Shen Nian looked at Lu Cheng, and her heart ached for him.

"Well then, you can just come with me now!"

"Now?"

"Mhm."

Shen Nian nodded at Lu Cheng. ’Anyway, Lu Cheng already knows about my embarrassing past, so I’m not afraid of making a fool of myself in front of him again.’

"Are you sure?"

"Of course. What, are you looking down on me?!"

’Even if I’m not as nimble or daring as I was when I was a kid, I can’t let him look down on me! It’s just climbing a tree. Who can’t do that?!’

"Of course not! But, Xiao Nian, you’re wearing a dress today!"

As Lu Cheng spoke, he glanced at Shen Nian’s outfit, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl up.

"..."

’I was so caught up in my grand declaration that I completely forgot what I’m wearing today.’

’If I really tried to climb a tree in a dress, that would be truly...’

"Alright, if you want to climb a tree, we can come back another day. Let’s just take a walk around here today!"

"Okay."

Shen Nian breathed a sigh of relief. ’Lu Cheng is the best,’ she thought. ’He always gives me an out.’

The two of them wandered hand in hand on the mountain. Shen Nian would occasionally tell Lu Cheng stories about things that happened here during her childhood. When she got to the funny parts, they both couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Their laughter echoed through the mountain forest. This beautiful moment would be etched deep in their hearts.

"Let’s rest here for a bit."

"Okay."

Lu Cheng took off his jacket and spread it on the ground before helping Shen Nian sit down. As for himself, he simply sat on the ground beside her.

Shen Nian was growing more and more accustomed to how devotedly Lu Cheng treated her.

"That ginseng you took out before—you found it here?"

Shen Nian had just sat down when she heard Lu Cheng’s voice. She jerked her head up to look at him.
