Chapter 97: Thinking About Some Unhealthy Things

“That day, the little one got injured and almost became wild boar’s meal. It was I who saved it.”

“Uh?? Even if such a big tiger gets injured, it’s impossible for a wild boar to eat it. These two are on completely different levels!!” Gu Nan’s expression was a little dazed.

“If this space is considered the first secret, then I have a second one.”

Su Niannian pointed to an ancient well not far away. “This is the second secret.”

Su Niannian took Gu Nan’s hand and walked toward the ancient well.

The little guy shook its head, following behind them.

Gu Nan still felt a bit uneasy, having such a massive tiger trailing behind him.

Su Niannian stopped beside the ancient well, intending to use the nearby wooden bucket. She pulled up a bucket of water from the well.

Seeing this, Gu Nan immediately understood what Su Niannian was about to do. He stepped forward, took the bucket, filled it with water, and completed the task smoothly.

After the well water was pulled up, Su Niannian took a ceramic bowl from the side, dipped it into the wooden bucket to fill it with water, and handed it to Gu Nan.

Without hesitation, Gu Nan took a sip.

It was clear and sweet.

The moment he drank, a wave of relief spread through his body.

He had felt a similar sensation before when drinking the sweet water Su Niannian had given him.

In fact, even eating the dishes Su Niannian had made for him had given him a similar feeling.

Su Niannian poured some more water into the little guy’s bowl.

Then, she returned to Gu Nan’s side, took his hand, and rested her head against his shoulder, tilting it slightly.

“This well water is spiritual spring water. As far as I know, it strengthens the body and heals illnesses.”

“Also, this spiritual spring water, when used to irrigate crops, makes them grow wonderfully. The fruits ripen quickly, and the yield is enormous,” Su Niannian said, pointing to the grains, vegetables, and fruits in the distance.

“And then there’s the little one,” she continued. “When I found him, he was only about three or four pounds, looking small and weak.”

“At that time, his front legs were injured. But after applying and drinking the spiritual spring water, in just a few days, he grew this big.”

Su Niannian wrapped her arm around Gu Nan’s, speaking slowly.

Gu Nan had already guessed as much, and now, hearing his little miss words, his suspicions were confirmed.

There wasn’t anything too shocking about it.

However, seeing such a miraculous thing with his own eyes still left him a little shaken.

“Then, my mother’s illness and my sister’s health… were all helped by this spiritual spring water?” Gu Nan asked, gently rubbing Su Niannian’s head.

“Mm.”

“I originally knew some medical skills, but as you said, it was already lung cancer. The possibility of curing it was almost nonexistent. Even if I used all my medical knowledge, it might only extend her life for another three or four months.”

“But with the spiritual spring water, it’s a completely different story. Aunt Gu’s illness will be completely cured,” Su Niannian said without any concealment, as there was no need to hide anything.

Since Gu Nan entered this space, Su Niannian had already planned to tell him about these things.

As for the fact that she had returned from the afterlife, it wasn’t that Su Niannian didn’t want to tell him, but that this matter was even more extraordinary than the spiritual spring space itself.

If Gu Nan didn’t know, he could live this life freely, without so many ties holding him back.

“Who else knows about the spiritual spring space?” Gu Nan asked, his concern growing. This place was too miraculous, and he feared that others might become envious if they found out.

“Only you,” Su Niannian replied firmly.

Upon hearing this, Gu Nan couldn’t help but feel warmth in his heart.

His little girl trusted him so much, and he would never let her down.

“This matter, don’t let anyone else know,” Gu Nan said as he turned and enveloped Su Niannian in his arms.

His right hand gently brushed through her hair, guiding her to rest her head against his chest.

“Mm, our secret,” Su Niannian smiled, happy.

She had shared her secret with Gu Nan, and their hearts felt even closer.

Truly.

The little tiger, standing nearby, watched the two with sharp eyes, clearly irritated. Really… so hard to watch!

With a dissatisfied shake of its head and a wag of its tail, the little tiger moved on to play with the chicks instead.

At this point, the chicks had grown quite a bit. When they saw the little tiger approach…

One by one, the chicks flapped their wings, fleeing to the farthest corner of the pen, huddling together in the hopes that the little tiger wouldn’t come near.

The chicks seemed almost instinctively afraid of such a fierce beast.

The little tiger showed a hint of a mischievous smile, and with a casual leap, it entered the pen.

The chicks, terrified, scattered in all directions, but the little tiger didn’t bite them. Instead, it chased them playfully.

This was truly a chaotic scene, like a flurry of chickens flying and dogs barking.

Su Niannian and Gu Nan both noticed the commotion, exchanged a glance, and shared a smile.

“The wheat here is almost ripe. Should I help you harvest it?” Gu Nan suggested, thinking that these crops must have been taken care of by Su Niannian. It must have been tiring for her, and since he was here now, it would be better for him to lend a hand with the work.

“No need,” Su Niannian quickly refused.

“But you’ll be so tired doing all this work by yourself,” Gu Nan said, his concern evident.

“It’s not like that!” Su Niannian waved her hand playfully and pointed toward the iron storage warehouse in the distance.

“Automatic harvesting, it automatically gets stored in the warehouse,” Su Niannian said, still amazed as she thought about it. It was truly remarkable.

The space in her possession could actually be upgraded.

If she remembered correctly, the space’s warehouse had appeared the first time she had kissed Gu Nan.

Could it be that every time their relationship deepened, the space would evolve?

Su Niannian thought about it for a while and found this possibility quite likely.

“What are you thinking?” Gu Nan asked when he saw Su Niannian deep in thought.

Su Niannian shared with him the guess she had just come up with.

For some reason, upon hearing this, Gu Nan blushed. His ears and neck turned red, and the flush slowly spread to his cheeks.

“Tsk tsk tsk. Are we rough men thinking about some unhealthy things?” Su Niannian teased playfully.

“No,” Gu Nan responded, pulling Su Nian Nian into his embrace once again.

This time, Su Niannian felt something pressing against her, something unfamiliar.

Hmm… I can’t think about that.

Even Su Niannian, usually composed, couldn’t help but blush.

She couldn’t help but think about the canopy bed she had bought earlier by accident. It just felt a little strange.

When Su Niannian first bought the bed, she thought it was an antique that might appreciate in value over time.

But now, looking at it…

No, don’t think about it, don’t think about it.

“Gu Nan.”

“Mm.”

“I really, really like you.” Su Niannian leaned against Gu Nan’s chest, her voice soft and gentle, as if it could drip with sweetness.

“I love you so much.” This was the first time Gu Nan had said such cheesy words, and his cheeks couldn’t help but redden a little.

Su Niannian was really fond of this side of Gu Nan, especially his deep, husky voice. She absolutely loved it.

“When you’re old enough, we’ll go get our marriage certificate.”

Gu Nan was already a little impatient to truly bond with Su Niannian, but he knew that he couldn’t do anything that might hurt his little miss.

hat he couldn’t do anything that might hurt his little girl.
